EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 2004,2005, the CorporationCompany had 9,82912,554 full-time equivalent employees. Bank of the West and First Hawaiian Bank had 8,04910,832 and 2,2272,219 employees, including part-time employees, respectively. None of our employees are represented by any collective bargaining agreements and our relations with employees are considered excellent.
MONETARY POLICY AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
Our earnings and businesses are affected not only by general economic conditions (both domestic and international), but also by the monetary policies of various governmental regulatory authorities of (i) the United States and foreign governments and (ii) international agencies. In particular, our earnings and growth may be affected by actions of the Federal Reserve Board in connection with its implementation of national monetary policy through its open market operationsoperation in United States Government securities, control of the discount rate and establishment of reserve requirements against both member and non-member financial institutions’ deposits. These actions may have a significant effect on the overall growth and distribution of loans and leases, investments and deposits, as well as on the rates earned on investment securities, loans and leases or paid on deposits. It is difficult to predict future changes in monetary policies.
COMPETITION
COMPETITION
Competition in the financial services industry is intense. We compete with a large number of commercial banks (including domestic, foreign and foreign-affiliated banks), savings institutions, finance companies, leasing
companies, mortgage companies, credit unions and other entities that provide financial services such as mutual funds, insurance and brokerage. Many of these competitors are significantly larger and have greater financial resources. In addition, the increasing use of the Internet and other electronic distribution channels has resulted in increased competition with respect to many of the products and services that we offer. As a result, we compete with financial service providers located not only in our home markets but also those elsewhere in the United States
and abroad that are able to offer their products and services through electronic and other non-conventional distribution channels.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
As a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (“BHC Act”), that has qualified and elected to be treated as a financial holding company, we are subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve Board. Our subsidiaries and branches are subject to regulation and supervision by the banking authorities of Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, as well as by the FDIC (which is the primary federal regulator of our two bank subsidiaries) and various other regulatory agencies.
The consumer lending and finance activities of
the Parent’sBancWest’s subsidiaries are also subject to extensive regulation under various Federal laws, including the Truth-in-Lending, Equal Credit Opportunity, Fair Credit Reporting, Fair Debt Collection
PracticePractices and Electronic Funds Transfer Acts, as well as various state laws. These statutes impose requirements on the making, enforcement and collection of consumer loans and on the types of disclosures that need to be made in connection with such loans.
Financial Holding Company Structure.Status.On November 12, 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
(“GLBA”(the “GLBA”) was signed into law. The GLBA
permitsamended the BHC Act to permit bank holding companies that qualify for
the status of, and elect to be regulated as, financial holding companies, to engage in a wide range of financial activities,
including securities underwriting and dealing, insurance
underwriting and agency activities and merchant banking
and real estate investment
activities that are not permissible for other bank holding companies. Each activity is regulated by a functional regulator: a state insurance regulator in the case of insurance activities, the Securities and Exchange Commission in the case of broker-dealer or investment advisory activities, or the appropriate federal banking regulator in the case of a bank or thrift institution. The Federal Reserve Board is the
“umbrella” supervisor of financial holding companies. Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act, which severely restricts lending by an insured bank subsidiary to nonbank affiliates, remains in place.
Financial holding companies are permitted to enter into new financial activities or acquire nonbank companies engaged in financial activities without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board, but may be subject to review by the Federal Trade

Commission and the Department of Justice for antitrust considerations. However, approval of the Federal Reserve Board
continues to beis generally required before acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of another bank,
savings association or bank holding company, before merging or consolidating with another bank holding company or before acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank or savings association. In addition, all
banking acquisitions are reviewed by the Department of Justice for antitrust considerations.
In conjunction with the 2001Our parent company, BNP Paribas,
Merger, wehas also qualified and elected to become a financial holding company.

BancWest Corporation A financial holding company that does not continue to meet all the requirements for financial holding company status will, depending on which requirements it fails to meet, lose the ability to undertake new activities or to make acquisitions that are not generally permissible for all bank holding companies or to continue such activities. Under the BHC Act, bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies are generally limited to engaging in the business of banking, managing or controlling banks, and Subsidiaries

Dividend Restrictions.other activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking as to be properly incident thereto. Additionally, bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies generally must apply for and obtain the prior approval of, or provide prior notice to, the Federal Reserve Board to make acquisitions of companies engaged in permissible activities or to commence those activities de novo.
In order for us to retain our status as a financial holding company and be able to continue to engage in or commence new financial activities not permissible for bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies and to acquire companies engaged in such activities, Bank of the West and First Hawaiian, as well as BNP Paribas, must remain “well capitalized” and “well managed.” In the case of Bank of the West and First Hawaiian, “well capitalized” has the same meaning as under the “prompt corrective action” guidelines described below, and “well managed” means that at each bank’s most recent examination the bank received at least a satisfactory composite rating and at least a satisfactory rating for management. Additionally, Bank of the West and First Hawaiian must continue to achieve a Community Reinvestment Act examination rating of at least satisfactory, otherwise we will be restricted from commencing, or making acquisitions of companies engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies.
Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a financial holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for each subsidiary bank and to make capital infusions into a troubled subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve Board may charge a financial holding company with engaging in unsafe and unsound practices for failure to commit resources to a subsidiary bank. This capital infusion may be required at times when a financial holding company may not have the resources to provide it. Any capital loan by us to one of our subsidiary banks would be subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary bank.
Restrictions on Dividends and Transfers of Funds.As a holding company,
theBancWest’s principal source of cash revenue has been dividends and interest received from
ourits bank subsidiaries. Each of the bank subsidiaries is subject to various
state and federal regulatory restrictions relating to the payment of dividends. For example, if, in the opinion of the FDIC, a bank under its jurisdiction is engaged in or is about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice (which could include the payment of dividends), the FDIC may require, after notice and hearing, that such bank cease and desist from such practice. In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has issued a policy statement which provides that, as a general matter, insured banks and bank holding companies should only pay dividends out of current operating earnings.
Bank of the West and First Hawaiian are also subject to restrictions relating to the payment of dividends under California and Hawaiian law, respectively. The regulatory capital requirements of the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC also may limit the ability of
the Corporationa bank holding company and its insured depository subsidiaries to pay dividends. See “Prompt Corrective Action” and “Capital Requirements” below.
There are also statutory limits on the transfer of funds to
the Corporationa bank holding company and its nonbanking subsidiaries by its banking subsidiaries, whether in the form of loans or other extensions of credit, investments or asset purchases. Such transfers by a bank subsidiary to any single affiliate are limited in amount to 10% of the bank’s capital and surplus, or 20% in the aggregate to all affiliates. Furthermore, such loans and extensions of credit are required to be collateralized in specified amounts.
Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a financial holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to each subsidiary bank and to make capital infusions into a troubled subsidiary bank.
Depositor Preference.The Federal Reserve Board may chargeDeposit Insurance Act provides for a financial holding company with engaging in unsafe and unsound practices for failure to commit resources to a subsidiary bank. This capital infusion may be required at times when a financial holding company may not havedepositor preference on amounts realized from the resources to provide it.

In addition, depositoryFDIC-Insured Bank Subsidiaries.Depository institutions insured by the FDIC can be held liable for any losses incurred, or reasonably expected to be incurred, by the FDIC in connection with (i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution in danger of default. “Default” is defined generally as the appointment of a conservator or receiver and “in danger of default” is defined generally as the existence of certain specified conditions indicating that a “default” is likely to occur in the absence

of regulatory assistance. Accordingly, in the event that any insured subsidiary of
the Corporationa bank holding company causes a loss to the FDIC, other insured subsidiaries of the
Corporationbank holding company could be required to compensate the FDIC by reimbursing it for the amount of such loss. Any such obligation by our insured subsidiaries to reimburse the FDIC would rank senior to their obligations, if any, to
the Corporation.us.
Prompt Corrective Action.Pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”), the federal banking agencies are required to take “prompt corrective action” with respect to insured depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. FDICIA established a five-tier framework for measuring the capital adequacy of insured depository institutions (including Bank of the West and First Hawaiian Bank), with each depository institution being classified into one of the following categories: “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” and “critically undercapitalized.”
Under the regulations adopted by the federal banking agencies to implement these provisions of FDICIA (commonly referred to as the “prompt corrective action” rules), a depository institution is “well capitalized” if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio
(total capital to risk-weighted assets) of 10% or greater, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio
(Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets) of 6% or greater, (iii) a leverage ratio
(Tier 1 capital to average total assets) of 5% or greater and (iv) is not subject to any written agreement, order or directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure. An “adequately capitalized” depository institution is defined as one that has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater and (iii) a leverage ratio of 4% or greater (or 3% or greater in the case of a bank
rated a composite 1 underthat received the
Uniform Financial Institution Rating System, “CAMELShighest supervisory rating
” established by the Federal Financial Institution Examinations Council) in its most recent report of examination, subject to appropriate federal banking agency guidelines). A depository institution is considered (i) “undercapitalized” if it has (A) a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%, (B) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 4% or (C) a leverage ratio of less than 4% (or
less than 3% in the case of
an institution with a
CAMELSbank that received the highest supervisory rating
in its most recent report of
1)examination, subject to appropriate federal banking agency guidelines), (ii) “significantly undercapitalized” if it has (A) a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%, (B) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3% or (C) a leverage ratio of less than 3% and (iii) “critically undercapitalized” if it has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets equal to or less than 2%. An institution may be deemed by the regulators to be in a capitalization category that is lower than is indicated by its actual capital position if, among other things, it receives an unsatisfactory examination rating. At December 31,
2004,2005, all of
the Corporation’sBancWest’s subsidiary depository institutions were “well capitalized.”
FDICIA generally prohibits a depository institution from making any capital distribution (including payment of a cash dividend) or paying any management fees to its holding company if the depository institution is, or would thereafter be, undercapitalized. Undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to
restrictions on borrowing from the Federal Reserve System and to growth limitations and are required to submit a capital restoration plan. The federal banking agencies may not accept a capital plan without determining, among other things, that the plan is based on realistic
4
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
PART I
assumptions and is likely to succeed in restoring the depository institution’s capital. In addition, for a capital restoration plan to be acceptable, the depository institution’s parent holding company must guarantee that the institution will comply with such capital restoration plan. The aggregate liability of the parent holding company under such guarantee is limited to the lesser of (i) an amount equal to 5% of the depository institution’s total assets at the time it became undercapitalized, or (ii) the amount which is necessary (or would have been necessary) to bring the institution into compliance with all capital standards applicable to such institution as of the time it fails to comply with the plan. In the event of the holding company’s bankruptcy, such guarantee would take priority over claims of its general unsecured creditors. If a depository institution fails to submit an acceptable plan, it is treated as if it is significantly undercapitalized.
Significantly undercapitalized depository institutions may be subject to a number of other requirements and restrictions, including orders to sell sufficient voting stock to become adequately capitalized, requirements to reduce total assets and cessation of receipt of deposits from correspondent banks. Critically undercapitalized institutions may not make any payments of interest or principal on their subordinated debt and are subject to the appointment of a conservator or receiver, generally within 90 days of the date such institution becomes critically undercapitalized.
As discussed above, if a depository institution is not well capitalized, its parent holding company cannot become, and, subject to a capital restoration plan, cannot remain, a financial holding company. In addition, the FDIC has adopted regulations under FDICIA prohibiting an insured depository institution from accepting brokered deposits (as defined by the regulations) unless the institution is “well capitalized” or is “adequately capitalized” and receives a waiver from the FDIC.
FDIC Insurance Assessments.The FDIC has implemented a risk-based deposit insurance assessment system under which the assessment rate for an insured institution may vary according to the regulatory capital levels of the institution and other factors (including supervisory evaluations). DepositoryIn recent years, our bank subsidiaries and other well capitalized and well managed depository institutions insured by the BIF which are ranked in the least risky category currently have no annual assessmentnot paid premiums for FDIC deposit insurance, while all other banks areinsured depository institutions have been required to

PART I
pay premiums ranging from 3 to 27 basis pointscents per $100 of domestic deposits. As a resultHowever, well capitalized and well managed depository institutions may be required to pay premiums on deposit insurance in the future. The outcome of legislative and regulatory initiatives, the enactment on September 30, 1996deposit insurance fund loss experience and other factors will determine the amount of the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reductionsuch premiums.
The Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996
(“the Deposit(the “Deposit Funds Act”)
, the deposit insurance premium assessment rates for depository institutions insured by the SAIF were reduced, effective January 1, 1997, to the same rates that were applied to depository institutions insured by the BIF. The Deposit Funds Act also provided for a one-time assessment of 65.7 basis points on all SAIF-insured deposits in order to fully recapitalize the SAIF (which assessment was paid by the Corporation in 1996), and imposes annual assessments on all depository institutions to pay interest on bonds issued by separated the Financing Corporation

annual assessment on individual depository institutions is in addition to the amount, if any, paid for deposit insurance according to the FDIC’s risk-based assessment rate
for the first quarter of 2005 was 1.44 basis points annualized. These rate schedules areschedules. FICO assessment rates may be adjusted quarterly by the FDIC.
The current FICO assessment rate is 1.32 cents per $100 of deposits. In addition, the FDIC has authority to impose special assessments from time to time, subject to certain limitations specified in the Deposit Funds Act.
Capital Requirements.Under
The Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (the “Reform Act”, the GLBA, our“Act”), signed into law by President Bush on February 8, 2006 as part of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, provides for the establishment of a new Deposit Insurance Fund (the “DIF”) and the merger of each of the BIF and the SAIF into it. The Reform Act authorizes revisions to the FDIC’s current risk-based assessment system, but provides that the FDIC’s assessment regulations as in effect immediately before the date of the enactment of the Reform Act will continue to apply to all members of the DIF until such regulations are modified by the FDIC in accordance with the Act. With regard to factors affecting assessment rates, the Reform Act eliminates the designated reserve ratio previously in effect for the BIF and the SAIF of 1.25 percent of estimated insured deposits and directs the FDIC to designate a reserve ratio for the DIF for each calendar year within the range of 1.15 to 1.5 percent of estimated insured deposits. The Reform Act also provides for indexing of the $100,000 maximum deposit insurance coverage amount to reflect inflation, increases the deposit insurance coverage for retirement accounts to $250,000, and also provides for dividends of amounts in the DIF above certain specified thresholds from time to time and a one-time credit against assessments for certain insured depository institutions that capitalized the deposit insurance system. The dividends and the credit are to be determined on a historical basis concept utilizing an institution’s assessment base in 1996 and adding premiums paid since that time. The Reform Act calls for final FDIC regulations implementing the statute to be effective within 270 days after enactment of the Act, although the merger of the BIF and the SAIF into the DIF is to take place no later than the first day of the calendar quarter beginning after the 90-day period following enactment of the Reform Act.
Capital Requirements. Bank holding companies and their insured depository institution subsidiaries generally are subject to
regulatoryrisk-based capital guidelines issued by the
U.S. federal banking agencies.
InformationHowever, the Federal Reserve Board has taken the position that where a U.S. bank holding company is a subsidiary of a foreign bank that has been determined by the Board to be “well-capitalized” and “well-managed” and that is a financial holding company, the subsidiary U.S. bank holding company as a general matter will not be required to comply with
respectthe Board’s capital adequacy guidelines for bank holding companies, although its subsidiary banks will remain subject to the regulatory capital requirements applicable to them. Accordingly, as a subsidiary of BNP Paribas, a foreign bank which satisfies these requirements, BancWest is not subject at this time to the Board’s capital adequacy guidelines, as described below. Bank of the West and First Hawaiian remain subject to the applicable capital

Under the capital requirements of the federal banking agencyagencies, the minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to revise its risk-basedrisk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance sheet items) is 8%. At least half of the total capital standardsmust consist of common stock, retained earnings, qualifying noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries and, for bank holding companies and subject to ensure that those standards take adequate accountcertain limitations, qualifying noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, trust preferred securities and certain other so-called ‘restricted core capital elements,’ less most intangibles including goodwill (“Tier 1 capital”). The remainder (“Tier 2 capital”) may consist of interest rate risk, concentrationcertain other preferred stock, certain other capital instruments, and limited amounts of credit risksubordinated debt and the riskallowance for loan and lease losses. In addition, banks and bank holding companies must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to average total assets) of nontraditional activities, as well as reflectat least 3% for institutions that meet certain specified criteria, including those having the actual performance and expected risk of loss on multi-family mortgages.highest supervisory rating, or at least 4% for all other institutions.
The federal banking
agencies have adopted amendments to their respectiveagencies’ risk-based capital
requirements thatguidelines explicitly identify concentrations of credit risk and certain risks arising from nontraditional activities, and the management of such risks, as important factors to consider in assessing an institution’s overall capital adequacy.
The amendments do not, however, mandate any specific adjustments to the risk-based capital calculations as a result of such factors.In August 1996,addition, the federal banking regulators adopted amendments to their risk-basedagencies’ capital rules toguidelines incorporate a measure for market risk in foreign exchange and commodity activities and in the trading of debt and equity instruments. Under these amendments, which became effective in 1997,The market risk capital rules require banking institutionsorganizations with relatively large trading activities are required to calculate theirmaintain capital charges for market risk in an amount calculated by using theirthe banking organizations’ own internal value-at-risk models, (subjectsubject to parameters set by the regulators) or, alternatively, risk management techniques developed by the regulators. As a result, these institutions are required to hold capital based on the measure of their market risk exposure in addition to existing capital requirements for credit risk. These institutions are able to satisfy this additional requirement, in part, by issuing short-term subordinated debt that qualifies as Tier 3 capital. The adoption of these amendments didthe market risk capital rules has not havehad a material effect on the Corporation’sour business or operations.
On November 29, 2001,
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published in 2004, and updated in 2005, a new set of risk-based capital standards (“Basel II”) in order to enhance the federal bank regulatory agencies publishedinternational capital standards that have been in place since 1988 (“Basel I”). Basel II adopts a regulation that addresses thethree-pillar framework of minimum capital treatmentrequirements, with more emphasis on supervisory assessment of recourse arrangements, direct credit substitutescapital adequacy and residual interests. “Recourse” means any retained credit risk associated with any asset transferred by a banking organization that exceeds a pro rata share of the banking organization’s remaining claim on the asset, if any. “Direct credit substitute” means any assumed credit risk associated with any asset or other claim not previously owned by a banking organization that exceeds the banking organization’s pro rata share of the asset or claim, if any. “Residual interest” means any on-

transferred assets. “Residual interests” do not include interests purchased from a third party, except for credit-enhancing interest-only strips (credit-enhancing I/O strips). The regulation assesses risk-based capital requirements on recourse obligations, residual interests (except credit-enhancing I/O strips), direct credit substitutes, and senior and subordinated securitiestime Basel II was originally published in asset securitizations based on ratings assigned by nationally recognized statistical rating agencies. The risk weights range from 20% for a position that is rated AA or better, to 200% for a position that is rated BB. A banking organization that holds a recourse obligation or a direct credit substitute (other than a residual interest) that does not qualify for the ratings-based approach is required by the regulation to maintain capital against that position and all senior positions in the securitization, but is not required to hold more capital than if assets had not been transferred. A banking organization that holds a residual interest that does not qualify for the ratings-based approach is required to hold capital on a dollar-for-dollar basis against the position and all senior positions, even if the capital charge exceeds the full risk-based capital charge that would have been held against the transferred assets.
The regulation limits credit-enhancing I/O strips, whether retained or purchased, to 25% of Tier 1 capital, with any excess amount to be deducted from Tier 1 capital and from assets. (The deducted amount is not subject to the dollar-for-dollar capital charge discussed above.) Credit-enhancing I/O strips are not aggregated with non-mortgage servicing assets and purchased credit card relationships for purposes of calculating the 25% limit. The regulation became effective on January 1, 2002 for transactions settled on or after that date and became effective December 31, 2002 for all other transactions. The regulation did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s operations or financial position.
The U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies’ risk-based capital guidelines are based upon the 1988 capital accord of2004, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the “Basel Committee”). The Basel Committee is a committee of central banks and bank supervisors from the major industrialized countriesindicated that develops broad policy guidelines that each country’s supervisors can use to determine the supervisory policies they apply. The Basel Committee released a proposal to replace the 1988 capital accord with a new capital accord titled “Basel II.” The goal for Basel II iswould be fully implemented in 2008, on September 30, 2005, the U.S. federal banking agencies issued a joint statement setting forth a revised timeline for U.S. banking institutions. Under this timeline, transitional arrangements for implementing Basel II would begin in the United States no earlier than 2008, with full implementation occurring no earlier than 2012. The agencies have stated that they expect to promoteissue a proposed rule for the adequate capitalizationdomestic implementation of banks and to encourage improvementsBasel II in risk management.the first quarter of 2006. The agencies have stated that the proposed domestic implementation of Basel Committee believesII will retain both the new standards are necessary due to the adoption of more advanced risk measurement techniquesexisting prompt corrective action capital requirements, as discussed above in “Prompt Corrective Action,” and the use of sophisticated risk management practices.Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement described above.
Compliance with Basel II will be accomplished through the introductionmandatory only for U.S. banking institutions with over $250 billion in banking assets or on-balance sheet foreign exposures of three pillars that reinforce eachat least $10 billion, although certain other while creating incentives for banksinstitutions may elect to enhance the quality of their control processes. The three pillars are as follows: (1) minimum capital requirements (2) supervisory oversight and (3) heightened market discipline. The United States bank regulatory agencies recently stated that they anticipate that the new accord would become effective incomply voluntarily. As a result, the United States is expected to have a bifurcated regulatory capital framework upon the implementation of Basel II, which may result in January 2008. The newthe largest banking organizations being subject to different, and most likely lower, regulatory capital levels than those applicable to other banking organizations for the same or similar products. On October 6, 2005, the federal banking agencies jointly proposed revisions to Basel I that are intended to more closely align risk-based capital requirements couldwith the risk inherent in various exposures and mitigate potential competitive disadvantages as the Basel II rules are implemented for the most complex internationally active banking organizations. Among other things, the proposed amendments would increase minimumthe number of risk-weight categories, permit greater use of external ratings as an indicator of credit risk for exposures for purposes of determining appropriate risk weight, expand the types of guarantees and collateral that may be recognized, modify risk weights associated with one-to-four family residential mortgages and apply certain credit conversion factors to certain types of commitments, as well as address the appropriate risk-based capital requirements applicabletreatment of certain securitizations with early-amortization features.

The GLBA financial privacy provisions generally prohibit a financial holding company, Bankinstitution, including BancWest and its bank subsidiaries, from disclosing nonpublic personal financial information about consumers to unaffiliated third parties unless consumers have the opportunity to “opt out” of the Westdisclosure. A financial institution is also required to provide its privacy policy annually to its customers. A number of state legislatures have adopted privacy laws, including laws prohibiting sharing of customer information without the customer’s prior permission, and First Hawaiian Bank (as well as each foreignother state legislatures are considering similar laws.

The USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “Act”“PATRIOT Act”). The Act includes numerous provisions designed to fight international money substantially broadened the scope of U.S. anti-money laundering laws and to block terrorist access to the U.S. financial system. The provisions of the Act generally affect banking institutions, broker-dealers and certain other financial institutions, and require all “financial institutions,” as defined in the Act, to establish anti-money launderingregulations by imposing significant new compliance and due diligence programs. The Act also grantsobligations, creating new penalties and expanding the Secretaryextra-territorial jurisdiction of the United States. The U.S. Treasury broad authorityDepartment has issued a number of implementing regulations that apply various requirements of the PATRIOT Act to establishfinancial institutions such as banks, broker-dealers, investment advisers, mutual funds and other entities. Those regulations impose obligations on financial institutions to maintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to impose requirementsverify the identity of their customers. In addition, the bank regulatory agencies are imposing heightened standards, and restrictions on subsidiary operations. We believelaw enforcement authorities have been taking a more active role. Failure by a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the Corporation’sinstitution. BancWest believes that the programs of its banking subsidiaries satisfy the requirements of the PATRIOT Act.
Community Reinvestment Act.The Community Reinvestment Act requires banks to help serve the credit needs of their communities, including credit to low- and moderate-income individuals and geographies. Should our bank subsidiaries fail to adequately serve their communities, potential penalties may include regulatory denials to expand branches, relocate, add subsidiaries and affiliates, expand into new financial activities or merge with or purchase other financial institutions.
Real Estate Activities.The FDIC adopted regulations, effective January 1, 1999, that make it significantly easier for state non-member banks to engage in a variety of real estate investment activities. These regulations generally allow a majority-owned corporate subsidiary of a state non-member bank to make equity investments in real estate if the bank complies with certain investment and transaction limits and satisfies certain capital requirements (after giving effect to its investment in the majority-owned subsidiary). In addition, the regulations permit a subsidiary of an insured state non-member bank to act as a lessor under a real property lease that is the equivalent of a financing transaction, meets

FUTURE LEGISLATION
Legislation relating to banking and other financial services has beenis often introduced from time to time in Congress and is likely to be introduced in the future. If enacted, such legislation could significantly change the competitive environment in which we and our subsidiaries operate. Management cannot predict whether these or any other proposals will be enacted or the ultimate impact of any such legislation on our competitive situation, financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The Company faces numerous risks, including those set forth below or those described elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The risks described below are not the only risks that the Company faces, nor are they necessarily listed in order of significance. Other risks and Exchange Commission.uncertainties may also affect its business operations. Any of these risks may have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Industry Factors
Our business may be adversely affected by fluctuations in interest rates
Significant increases in market interest rates, or the perception that an increase may occur, could adversely affect both our ability to originate new loans and our ability to grow our business. Conversely, decreases in interest rates could result in an acceleration of loan prepayments. An increase in market interest rates could also adversely affect the ability of our floating-rate borrowers to meet their higher payment obligations. If this occurred, it could result in or contribute to an increase in nonperforming assets and charge-offs, which could adversely affect our business.
Our net interest margin may be adversely affected by fluctuations in interest rates
Changes in market interest rates, including changes in the relationship between short-term and long-term market interest rates or between different interest rate indices, can impact our net interest margin, that is, the difference between the interest rates we receive on interest earning assets, such as loans and investments, and the interest rates we pay on interest bearing liabilities, such as deposits or other borrowings. The impact could result in a decrease in our interest income relative to interest expense.

Terrorist activities and other international hostilities could have an adverse effect on the U.S. and international economies
Acts or threats of terrorism and actions taken by the U.S. or other governments as a result of such acts or threats or other international hostilities may result in a disruption of U.S. and global economic and financial markets and could adversely affect business and economic and financial conditions in the U.S., globally or in our principal markets.
Changes in, or the adverse effects of, banking or other laws and regulations or governmental fiscal or monetary policies could adversely affect our business
We are subject to significant federal and state regulation and supervision, which is primarily for the benefit and protection of our customers and not for the benefit of investors in any of our securities. In the past, our business, as is the case with many banks, has been materially affected by these regulations. This will likely continue in the future. Laws, regulations or policies, including accounting standards and interpretations, currently affecting us and our subsidiaries may change at any time. Regulatory authorities may also change their interpretation of these statutes and regulations. Therefore, our business may be adversely affected by future changes in laws, regulations, policies or interpretations or regulatory approaches to compliance and enforcement. Due to BNP Paribas’ controlling ownership of us, laws, regulations and policies adopted or enforced by the Government of France and the Federal Reserve Board, which supervise and regulate BNP Paribas, may adversely affect our activities and investments and those of our subsidiaries in the future.
Additionally, our business is affected significantly by the fiscal and monetary policies of the U.S. federal government and its agencies. We are particularly affected by the policies of the Federal Reserve Board, which regulates the supply of money and credit in the U.S. Under long-standing policy of the Federal Reserve Board, a bank holding company and any financial holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for its subsidiary banks. As a result of that policy, we may be required to commit financial and other resources to our subsidiary banks in circumstances where we might not otherwise do so.
Refer to “Supervision and Regulation” above for discussion of other laws and regulations that may have a material effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
Our business may be adversely affected by substantial competition
Banking is a highly competitive business. We compete actively for loan, deposit, and other financial services business in the Western U.S. markets, as well as nationally and internationally. Our competitors include a large number of state and national banks, thrift institutions, credit unions, mortgage bankers, and major foreign-affiliated or foreign banks, as well as many financial and nonfinancial firms that offer products and services similar to those offered by us, including many large securities firms and mutual fund complexes. Some of our competitors are community or regional banks that have strong local market positions. Other competitors include large financial institutions and insurance companies that have substantial capital, technology and marketing resources. Such larger financial institutions may have greater access to capital at a lower cost than us, which may adversely affect our ability to compete effectively.
The increasing number of nonbank competitors providing financing services could adversely affect our business
Technology and other changes increasingly allow parties to complete financial transactions electronically, and in many cases, without banks. For example, consumers can pay bills and transfer funds over the internet and by telephone without banks. Nonbank financial service providers may have lower overhead costs and are subject to fewer regulatory constraints. If consumers do not use banks to complete their financial transactions, we could potentially lose fee income, deposits and income generated from those deposits.
Changes in accounting standards could have a material impact on our financial statements
From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the SEC change the financial accounting and reporting standards governing the preparation of our financial statements. These changes are very difficult to predict and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations and other financial data.

Company Factors
Adverse economic conditions in California or Hawaii could adversely affect our business
A substantial portion of our assets, deposits and fee income is generated in California and Hawaii. As a result, poor economic conditions in California or Hawaii may cause us to incur losses associated with higher default rates and decreased collateral values in our loan portfolio. Economic conditions in California are subject to various uncertainties at this time, including the pace and scope of the recovery in the technology sector, and the California state government’s continuing budgetary and fiscal difficulties. Hawaii’s economy is dependent to a considerable degree on the level of tourism. If economic conditions in California or Hawaii decline, we expect that our level of problem assets could increase and our prospects for growth could be impaired. The State of California continues to face fiscal challenges, the long-term impact of which on the State’s economy cannot be predicted with any certainty.
Our business may be adversely affected by economic factors affecting certain industries we serve
We are subject to certain industry-specific economic factors. For example, a significant and increasing portion of our total loan portfolio is related to residential real estate, automobile loans and leases, recreational vehicle loans and recreational marine vessel loans. Accordingly, a downturn in these industries or sectors could have an adverse effect on our operations and the quality of our loan portfolio. Increases in residential mortgage loan interest rates could also have an adverse effect on our operations by depressing new mortgage loan originations. We provide financing to businesses in a number of other industries that may be particularly vulnerable to industry-specific economic factors, including the commercial real estate industry, the agriculture industry and the construction industry. Recent increases in fuel prices and energy costs have adversely affected businesses in several of these industries. Industry-specific risks which are beyond our control could adversely affect our portfolio of loans, potentially resulting in an increase in nonperforming loans or charge-offs and a slowing of growth or reduction in our loan portfolio.
Economic conditions which have a disproportionate impact on small businesses may adversely affect our business
A portion of our loan portfolio involves Small Business Administration loans to small businesses. Small businesses are generally less able to withstand adverse economic conditions than larger businesses. Adverse business and economic conditions could negatively impact the ability of small businesses to meet loan obligations and reduce the lending market for Small Business Administration loans which could have an adverse impact on our business.
Our business strategy includes pursuing opportunistic acquisitions, which subject it to related risks
Historically, an important component of our overall growth strategy is to make focused acquisitions of complementary banks and other businesses. Acquisition activity, by its nature, is not predictable and involves risks such as:
| • | | Lower than expected performance or higher than expected costs in connection with acquisitions and integration of acquired businesses; |
|
| • | | Potential unavailability of attractive acquisition candidates; |
|
| • | | Potential disruption of management’s time and attention; |
|
| • | | Possible loss of employees and customers of acquired banks or other companies; |
|
| • | | Difficulty entering new and unfamiliar markets; |
|
| • | | Incurring undiscovered liabilities or operational risks associated with acquired banks or other companies; |
|
| • | | Incorrectly valuing acquisition candidates; and, |
|
| • | | Inability to realize the growth opportunities of acquired businesses and inability to achieve efficiency goals. |

Loss of our status as a financial holding company would adversely affect our business and prospects
We have made an election under federal banking law to become a financial holding company. Financial holding companies are permitted to engage in a wide range of financial activities, insurance, merchant banking and real estate investments that are not permissible for other bank holding companies. In order to remain a financial holding company we must continue to meet certain regulatory requirements, including certain of our affiliates remaining “well-capitalized” under federal regulatory capital guidelines. If we are unable to meet these requirements, we may be unable to offer the services of a financial holding company which could adversely affect our business and prospects. If BNP Paribas were to no longer have the status of a financial holding company, we expect that this would also impair our status as a financial holding company.
Regulatory constraints could limit our ability to make acquisitions and risks associated with potential acquisitions or divestitures or restructurings may adversely affect our business
We may seek to acquire or invest in financial and non-financial companies that complement our business. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in completing any such acquisition or investment as this will depend on the availability of prospective target opportunities at valuation levels we find attractive and the competition for such opportunities from other parties. Any acquisitions, divestitures or restructurings may result in significant write-offs, including those related to goodwill and other intangible assets, and/or the incurrence of debt, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Acquisitions, divestitures or restructurings could involve numerous additional risks including difficulties in obtaining any required regulatory approvals and in the integration or separation of operations, services, products and personnel, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, higher than expected deposit attrition (run-off), divestitures required by regulatory authorities, the disruption of our business and the potential loss of key employees. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing these or any other significant risks encountered.
Restrictions on dividends and other distributions could limit amounts payable to us
As a holding company, a substantial portion of our cash flow comes from dividends our bank subsidiaries pay to us. Various statutory provisions and regulatory policies restrict the amount of dividends our subsidiaries can pay to us without regulatory approval. In addition, if any of our subsidiaries were to liquidate, that subsidiary’s creditors would be entitled to receive distributions from the assets of that subsidiary to satisfy their claims against it before we, as a holder of an equity interest in the subsidiary, would be entitled to receive any of the assets of the subsidiary.
Privacy restrictions could adversely affect our business
Our business model relies, in part, upon cross-marketing the services offered by our subsidiaries to our customers. Laws that restrict our ability to share information about customers within our corporate organization could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Legal actions could expose us to substantial uninsured liabilities
We are from time to time subject to claims related to our operations. These claims and legal actions, including supervisory actions by our regulators, could involve large monetary claims and significant defense costs. To protect ourselves from the cost of these claims, we maintain insurance coverage in amounts and with deductibles that we believe are appropriate for our operations. However, our insurance coverage may not cover all claims against us or continue to be available to us at a reasonable cost. As a result, we may be exposed to substantial uninsured liabilities, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
We rely on third party vendors for important products and services
Third party vendors provide various components of our business infrastructure such as internet connections and network access. While we have selected these third party vendors carefully, we do not control their actions. Any problems caused by these third parties, including as a result of their not providing us their services for any reason or their performing their services poorly, could adversely affect our ability to deliver products and services to our customers and otherwise to conduct our business. Replacing these third party vendors could also entail significant delay and expense.

We are exposed to operational risk as a result of the scale and scope of our business, which could adversely affect our results of operations
We are exposed to operational risk as a result of the scale and scope of our business. Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, human factors and systems or external events. We continually assess and monitor operational risk in our business and provide for disaster and business recovery planning, including geographical diversification of our facilities; however, the occurrence of various events including unforeseeable and unpreventable events such as earthquakes, hurricanes or other natural disasters could still damage our physical facilities or our computer systems or software, cause delay or disruptions to operational functions, impair our clients, vendors and counterparties and adversely affect our results of operations.
Our controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented
Management regularly reviews and updates our internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures and corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures could have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are controlled by BNP Paribas; our interests may not be the same as those of BNP Paribas
BNP Paribas controls all of the outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result, BNP Paribas can elect all of our directors and can control the vote on all matters, including: approval of mergers or other business combinations; a sale of all or substantially all of our assets; issuance of any additional common stock or other equity securities; incurrence of debt other than in the ordinary course of business; the selection and tenure of our Chief Executive Officer and payment of dividends with respect to our common stock or other equity securities. BNP Paribas’ view of possible new businesses, strategies, acquisitions, divestitures or other initiatives may differ from ours. This may delay or hinder us from pursuing such initiatives.
BNP Paribas’ financial condition could adversely affect our operations
We have partly funded our operations through capital infusions and loans from BNP Paribas. Developments which negatively affect BNP Paribas could also have a negative effect on us. In addition, BNP Paribas’ credit ratings may affect our credit ratings. BNP Paribas is also subject to regulatory oversight and review by French, U.S. and other regulatory authorities. Our business operations and expansion plans could be negatively affected by regulatory concerns related to the French and European financial system, BNP Paribas and other developments concerning BNP Paribas, which may result in capital constraints as well as additional French and U.S. regulatory constraints.

BancWest is a wholly owned subsidiary of BNP Paribas and there is no public trading market for BancWest’s common equity. BancWest has no compensation plans that provide for issuance of its equity securities.
State regulations place restrictions on the ability of our bank subsidiaries to pay dividends. Under Hawaii law, First Hawaiian Bank is prohibited from declaring or paying any dividends in excess of its retained earnings. California law generally prohibits Bank of the West from paying cash dividends to the extent such payments exceed the lesser of retained earnings and net income for the three most recent fiscal years (less any distributions to stockholders during such three-year period). At December 31,
2004,2005, the aggregate amount of dividends that such subsidiaries could pay to
the ParentBancWest under the foregoing limitations without prior regulatory approval was
$823.2$931.5 million.

OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW
BancWest Corporation (www.bancwestcorp.com) is a financial holding company with assets of $50.1 billion.$66.3 billion at December 31, 2005. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Paris-based BNP Paribas. The Company is headquartered in Honolulu, Hawaii, with an administrative headquarters in San Francisco, California. As of December 31, 2004,2005, its principal subsidiaries were Bank of the West (Bank of the West or BOW) (466(“BOW”) (663 full service retail branches and 1418 limited service retail offices in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming) and First Hawaiian Bank (First Hawaiian(“First Hawaiian” or FHB)“FHB”) (61 branches in Hawaii, Guam and Saipan). In this report, BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries is referred to as “the Company,” “we” or “our.” BancWest Corporation alone is referred to as “the Parent.”
Strategic Initiatives
The Company has continued to implement a series of initiatives that are designed to improve customer service and expand our geographic footprint through acquisitions and branch expansion. The focus of the Company is to promote long-lasting customer service relationships through an array of financial products and services supported by advanced technology. The Company strives for a “high touch” personalized marketing position, promoting brand recognition through marketing and community outreach programs. The Company is developing a distribution model that will give regional management more decision making ability in the areas of lending and product pricing that will allow them to be more responsive to the local needs of our customers in our diverse markets. The Company is expanding its line of financial services to its customers through internal initiatives as well as acquisitions. This includes insurance services, where the Company continues to explore acquisitions of independent insurance agencies within the Company’s geographic footprint. Bank of the West currently operates 58 insurance agencies in eight states and is planning to expand the insurance operations through acquisitions. With the acquisition of Commercial Federal, the Company has significantly expanded its residential mortgage loan origination business. Three components of the origination business, including legacy Bank of the West, the joint ventures from Community First and the Commercial Federal mortgage division have been consolidated under one management team in Omaha. The Company plans to expand its sales force, which will operate in all of our markets.
Bank of the West’s Commercial Banking Group is expanding geographically and has increased its product offerings for the Commercial Banking Division as well as the Agribusiness Banking Division and the Real Estate Industries Division. The Commercial Banking Group is leveraging the expanded footprint from the mergers with Community First Bankshares, Inc. and Commercial Federal through offices in Denver, Minneapolis, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Omaha, Des Moines and Kansas City.
Bank of the West’s Consumer Finance Group will continue its expansion plans for its auto loan product throughout the Mid-West, including those states within the Bank’s new footprint resulting from the mergers with Community First and Commercial Federal Bank. Additional expansion of the auto loan product in adjacent markets is also being considered.
First Hawaiian Bank’s focus is on its core markets of Hawaii, Guam and Saipan. Its primary focus is on deepening relationships with existing customers. Objectives include emphasis on effective client segmentation and cross-selling, largely through development and sale of segment-targeted packaged products and services. A Private Banking department within the Retail Banking Group focuses on private client relationship management, financial and estate planning and business development.
In addition, due to improving economic conditions in Hawaii, Guam and Saipan, First Hawaiian Bank seeks to increase loan and deposit volumes by developing relationships with new customers.
First Hawaiian Bank is growing its commercial card business, offering sophisticated credit card products to serve the needs of our business customers at both First Hawaiian Bank and Bank of the West. Investments are being made in this business line to enhance customer service and improve staff efficiencies. New initiatives undertaken in 2005 include a co-branded debit card in Guam, a Web Cash Manager product for our business customers, expanded use of new computerized cross-selling tools and new real estate loan products to meet the needs of our customers.

Acquisitions
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
First Hawaiian Bank has also made a series of organizational changes to place increased emphasis on wealth management services such as private banking, financial and estate planning and trust and investments, which are considered key sources of growth for FHB’s future. The organizational changes include renaming FHB’s Financial Management Segment to the Wealth Management Segment, in order to communicate the segment’s focus on management of wealth assets such as personal trusts, investment portfolios and real estate. The Wealth Management Segment also incorporates the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Bishop Street Capital Management Corporation, and acts as trustee and custodian of retirement and other employee benefit plans.
Acquisitions
All acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 “Business Combinations.” Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values, with the excess recorded as goodwill.
Commercial Federal Corporation Acquisition
On December 2, 2005, we acquired 100 percent of the outstanding stock of Commercial Federal Corporation, (“Commercial Federal”) a holding company that operated Commercial Federal Bank. The purchase price of approximately $1.3 billion was paid in cash. We recorded $910 million of goodwill and $95 million of identifiable intangibles related to the Commercial Federal acquisition.
The final allocation of the purchase price will be established after completing the analysis to determine the fair values of Commercial Federal’s tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets and final decisions regarding integration activities have been made. The acquisition of Commercial Federal added three new states to the Company’s footprint (Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma) and added to our market share in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa and Nebraska. Commercial Federal operated 204 banking locations (199 full service retail branches and five limited service retail offices) in those seven states. At December 2, 2005, Commercial Federal had total assets of $10.0 billion, total deposits of $6.0 billion and loans of $7.9 billion. Beginning December 3, 2005, the results of operations of Commercial Federal were included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. The branches of Commercial Federal were fully integrated into BOW’s network on the date of acquisition.
In connection with the acquisition, management is in the process of implementing various restructuring plans. These restructuring plans will target areas where there is a significant amount of overlap between the two companies. This includes consolidating administrative and support services, including sales and marketing, to focus the Company’s resources on activities that will promote growth. We will be consolidating excess facilities and evaluating those areas where we will be able to take advantage of existing facilities. We have estimated net cost savings of approximately $54 million per year beginning in 2007 from restructuring efforts. In 2006, the Company expects to realize net cost savings of approximately $47 million. Exit costs related to Commercial Federal activities are expected to approximate $47 million. We expect to finalize the estimates for these costs in the first half of 2006. Approximately 160 employees have been or will be displaced in conjunction with the acquisition. We are also expecting to incur conversion and restructuring expenses totaling approximately $21 million. In 2005, the Company incurred approximately $17 million of restructuring expenses related to the Commercial Federal acquisition. We anticipate that cash outlays for exit and restructuring costs should be substantially completed by March 2007.
Insurance Agency Acquisitions
During 2005, the Company increased its insurance business by acquiring the assets of Insurance One, Inc. on February 1, 2005 and purchasing Barlow Insurance Agency, Inc. on December 1, 2005. The combined purchase price of these agencies was $7.7 million, which was paid in cash. We recorded $4 million of goodwill and $3 million of other intangibles related to these acquisitions. We did not incur any exit costs related to these acquisitions.

cash and was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 “Business Combinations” (FAS 141). Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.cash. We recorded
$913$914 million of goodwill and
$97$96 million of identifiable intangibles related to
the Community Firstthis acquisition.
The final allocation of the purchase price will be established after completing the analysis to determine the fair values of Community First’s tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets and final decisions regarding integration activities have been made.
The acquisition of Community First added 10 states to the Company’s footprint, and added to our market share in California and New Mexico. CFB operated 166 banking locations (153 full service retail branches and 13 limited service retail offices) in Arizona, California, Colorado, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Community First’s retail operations complement BOW’s existing network in California, Nevada, New Mexico and the Pacific Northwest. At October 31, 2004, Community First had total assets of $5.5 billion, total deposits of $4.5 billion and loans of $3.4 billion. Beginning November 1, 2004, the results of operations of Community First were included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. Branches of CFB were fully integrated into BOW’s network in the fourth quarter of 2004.
The Company adopted formal restructuring plans in the fourth quarter of 2004. These restructuring plans targeted areas where there is a significant amount of overlap between the two companies. This includes consolidating administrative and support services including data processing and marketing and to focus the Company’s resources on activities that will promote growth in the business. We will be consolidating excess facilities and evaluating areas where we will be able to take advantage of existing facilities. We have estimated net cost savings of approximately $50 million per year beginning in 2006 from restructuring efforts. In 2005, the Company expects to realize net cost savings of more than $35 million. Exit costs related to Community First activities are expected to approximate $25 million and are accrued as a liability. Approximately 200 employees have been or will be displaced in conjunction with the acquisition. We are also expecting to incur conversion and restructuring expenses totaling approximately $18 million. In 2004, the Company incurred approximately $14 million of restructuring expenses related to the Community First acquisition. We anticipate that cash outlays for exit and restructuring costs should be substantially completed by the end of 2005.
On November 1, 2004, we also acquired USDB Bancorp (USDB), parent company of Union Safe Deposit Bank. USDB was a holding company headquartered in Stockton, California, and operated 19 Union Safe Deposit Bank branches in San Joaquin and Stanislaus Counties in the Central Valley of California. The purchase price of approximately $245 million was paid in
cash to acquire 100% of the outstanding stock of USDB and was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with FAS 141. Accordingly, the purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. In addition, the11

As of October 31, 2004, USDB had total assets of $1.2 billion, total deposits of $899 million and total loans of $676 million. Exit costs related to USDB activities are expected to be approximately $7 million and are accrued as a liability. Approximately 160 employees have been or will be displaced in conjunction with the acquisition. The Company is also expecting to incur conversion and restructuring expenses totaling approximately $4 million. In 2004, the Company incurred approximately $2 million in restructuring expenses. We anticipate that cash outlays for exit and restructuring costs should be substantially completed by the end of 2005.
The conversion and merger of Union Safe Deposit Bank into Bank of the West occurred in January of 2005. Expanding Bank of the West’s presence in California has been one of the Company’s strategic goals. This acquisition gives us the opportunity to service a broader region of the Central Valley. The Company has estimated net cost savings of approximately $20 million per year beginning in 2006 from restructuring efforts. In 2005, the Company expects to realize net cost savings of more than $15 million.
Strategic Initiatives
The Company has continued to implement a series of initiatives that are designed to improve customer service and expand our physical footprint through branch expansion and acquisitions. The focus of the Company is to promote long-lasting customer service relationships through upgrading technology and implementing new training vehicles. The Company strives for a “high touch” personalized marketing position, promoting brand recognition through logos and community outreach. The Company is expanding its line of financial services to its customers through internal initiatives as well as acquisitions. This includes insurance services that it attained through its acquisition of Community First. Bank of the West currently operates 57 insurance agencies in eight states and is planning to expand the insurance operations through acquisitions.
Bank of the West’s Commercial Banking Group is planning to expand geographically and also increase its product offering for the Commercial Banking Division, the Agribusiness Banking Division and the Real Estate Industries Division. The Commercial Banking Group has created two new departments, National Middle Market Leasing and the Commercial Finance Department. The Government Banking Department is in the process of expanding to include a Public Finance program. The geographic expansion plans will include locations in Colorado as a first step, and one or two other states to be determined. Denver will be the initial location for the first office to take advantage of the new footprint as a result of the merger with Community First. National Middle Market Leasing will originate lease transactions nationwide, targeting middle market companies with sales of $25 million - $500 million. The focus will be on leases of $250 thousand - $10 million.
Bank of the West’s Consumer Finance Group is planning to expand geographically and also increase its product offerings. The geographic expansion includes the Midwest and other states in the new footprint resulting from the merger with Community First. Additional expansion of the auto loan product in adjacent markets is also being considered.
First Hawaiian Bank’s focus is on its core markets of Hawaii, Guam and Saipan. The primary effort is to deepen our relationships with existing customers by offering new products and aggressively attempting to meet their needs. In addition, due to improving economic conditions in Hawaii, Guam and Saipan, First Hawaiian Bank seeks to increase loan and deposit volumes by developing relationships with new customers. Also, as part of the effort to focus on our core markets First Hawaiian Bank’s Commercial Banking Group has nearly completed its planned reduction in the Media Finance and Corporate National areas.
First Hawaiian Bank’s Consumer Banking Group is growing its commercial card business, offering sophisticated credit card products to serve the needs of our business customers at both First Hawaiian Bank and Bank of the West. Investments are being made in this business line to enhance customer service and improve staff efficiencies.
First Hawaiian Bank’s Financial Management Group will also be making investments in technology to enhance customer service and create synergies to develop new business. In addition, on June 1, 2004, Bishop Street Capital Management, the investment management subsidiary of First Hawaiian Bank, acquired CIC/HCM Asset Management, Inc., the largest independent institutional fixed-income specialist in Hawaii with $300 million under management. The acquisition reaffirms First Hawaiian Bank’s commitment to expanding its strong, Hawaii-based investment team.
Key among the elements of the Company’s profitability has been the interest rate environment, from both a deposit and loan pricing standpoint. As an industry, banks and other financial intermediaries have seen net interest margins decline over the past year

principally as a result of the absolute level and shape of the yield curve. We manage the interest rate and market risks inherent in our asset and liability balances, while ensuring ample liquidity and diverse funding.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses in our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. We believe that the judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements are appropriate given the factual circumstances as of December 31,
2004.2005. We have policies and procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. However, given the sensitivity of our Consolidated Financial Statements to these accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates and assumptions could result in material differences in our results of operations or financial condition.
Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Various elements of our accounting policies, by their nature, are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments. We have identified the following accounting estimates that we believe are material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for uncertain matters or where these matters are particularly subject to change.
Allowance for loan and lease losses (the “Allowance”): The Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the existing loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The determination of the adequacy of the Allowance is ultimately one of management judgment, which includes consideration of many factors such as: (1) the amount of problem loans and leases existing at the balance sheet date (whether or not specifically identified at that date); (2) net charge-off experience; (3) changes in the composition of the loan and lease portfolio by type and location of loans and leases; (4) changes in overall loan and lease risk profile and quality; (5) general economic factors; (6) specific regional economic factors; and (7) the fair value of collateral. Using this methodology, we allocate the Allowance to individual loans and leases and to the categories of loans and leases representing probable losses based on available information. At least quarterly, we conduct internal credit analyses to determine which loans and leases are impaired. As a result, we allocate specific amounts of the Allowance to individual loan and lease relationships. Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to the Consolidated Financial Statements describes how we evaluate loans for impairment. Some categories of loans and leases are not subjected to a loan-by-loan credit analysis. Management makes an allocation to these categories based on our analysis of historic trends of impairment and charge-offs of such loans and leases. Additionally, we allocate a portion of the Allowance based on risk classifications of certain loan and lease types. If general or specific regional economic factors were to improve or deteriorate significantly, we may need to revise our loss factors, thereby decreasing or increasing our allowance. Furthermore, the estimated fair value of collateral may differ from what is realized

Due to the subjective nature of estimating an adequate allowance for loan and lease losses, economic uncertainties and other factors, some of the allowance is not allocated to specific categories of loans and leases. The Corporation monitors differences between estimated and actual incurred loan and lease losses. This monitoring process includes periodic assessments by senior management of credit portfolios and the methodologies used to estimate incurred losses in those portfolios. In management’s judgment, the Allowance has historically been adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolios. However, changes in prevailing economic conditions in our markets could result in changes in the level of nonperforming loans and leases, and charge-offs in the future. We will continue to monitor economic developments closely and make necessary adjustments to the Allowance accordingly. |

| | • | | Goodwill: Goodwill recorded on the books of the Company resulted from business acquisitions. It arose when the purchase price exceeded the assigned value of the net assets of acquired businesses. In each situation, it was based on estimates and assumptions that were subject to management’s judgment and was recorded at its estimated fair value at the time purchase accounting estimates of acquired entities were concluded. As of December 31, 2004,2005, we had $4.3$5.2 billion in goodwill on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The value of this goodwill is supported by the revenue we generate from our business segments. A decline in earnings as a result of material lack of growth, or our inability to deliver services in a cost-effective manner over a long time period, could lead to possible impairment of goodwill, and this would be booked as a write-down in our income statement. We perform an impairment test for goodwill annually, or as circumstances dictate.dictate, using a two-step process. The first step compares the estimated fair value of a reporting unit, which is an individual business segment of the Company, to its carrying amount. If the estimated fair value exceeds the carrying amount, no impairment exists. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value, then a second step is conducted whereby we assign estimates of fair values to identifiable assets and liabilities, leaving an implied fair value for goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is compared with the carrying amount of goodwill. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. We performed the impairment testing of goodwill required under FAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” for the year ended December 31, 2005, in the fourth quarter. Due to the inherent imprecision of projections used in the impairment test, a number of different scenarios were used. In addition to using anticipated balance sheet growth, scenarios for 25% more and 20% less than the anticipated growth were used. Furthermore, in projecting cash flows, a continuing value scenario as well as a terminal value scenario were used. Finally, two separate discount rate scenarios were used. The first discount rate used was the weighted average cost of capital, which is a composite of the after-tax cost of debt and cost of equity. The second discount rate was the cost of equity using a capital asset pricing model. The conclusion after testing under each of these scenarios was that there was no impairment of goodwill. However, the evaluation methodology for potential impairment is centered on the projection of cash flows into the future using present value techniques and, as such, involves significant management judgment in the modeling of estimates and assumptions. If the projected net cash flow assumptions are too high, or if the discount rate used is too low, there is a risk that impairment should have been recognized, but was not recorded. |

in 2004 was primarily due to increased consumer lending, purchased residential mortgages and loans and leases acquired from Community First and USDB.
Consumer loans continue to grow due to the strength in the consumer market and the low interest rates on consumer loans. As growth in commercial lending was relatively low during the past year, funds were used to purchase residential mortgages as well as securities available for sale.

20032005 compared with 20022004 The $8.4 billion, or 30.6%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities was substantially due to increases in our customer deposit base, long-term debt and short-term borrowings. Average deposits increased partially due to our capital markets division issuing time certificates of deposits in excess of $100 thousand to business customers. The increase in average loanslong-term debt was a result of increased borrowings from our parent company, BNP Paribas, and leasesthe Federal Home Loan Bank System. This includes advances acquired from Commercial Federal that were made by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka, Kansas and were subsequently refinanced with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco, California. The increase in long-term debt was partially offset by the redemption of the junior subordinated debt owed to BancWest Capital I Trust. See Note 5 (Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)) to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. The increase in short-term borrowings was primarily due to increases in short-term advances from the full-year contribution of loans acquired through UCBFederal Home Loan Bank System.

BancWest Corporation and internal growth. Average consumer loans within Bank of the West increased approximately $1.0 billion, or 18.9%, primarily due to growth in financing for autos, recreational vehicles and pleasure boats, while purchases increased the average residential mortgage portfolio. Average loans and leases in First Hawaiian Bank decreased slightly, primarily due to the planned reduction in certain syndicated national credits, partially offset by increased consumer loans.Average Interest-Bearing Deposits and Liabilities

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The $3.9 billion, or 16.6%, increase in average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities in 2004 as compared to 2003 was substantially due to organic growth in our customer deposit base and an increase in average long-term debt and average short-term borrowings. Average deposits increased substantially due to internal growth in the regular and money market savings, foreign and time deposits, demand deposit and interest-bearing checking portfolios and partly due to the Community First and USDB acquisitions. Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank System increased average long-term debt, while overnight Federal funds purchases were largely responsible for the increase in short-term borrowings.
2003 compared with 2002
The increase in average interest-bearing deposits and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in average long-term debt and growth in our customer deposit base. Average interest-bearing deposits increased due to the full-year contribution to averages from the UCB acquisition, as well as internal growth in the demand deposit and interest-bearing checking, regular and money market savings portfolios. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in average certificates of deposit. Average short-term borrowings decreased primarily due to the replacement of $800 million of short-term financing, entered into with BNP Paribas in conjunction with the BNP Paribas Merger, with long-term financing in November 2002. The reduction of this short-term borrowing for all of 2003, as opposed to only a portion of 2002, is partially responsible for the decrease in average short-term debt, while increasing average long-term debt. Long-term borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank also increased average long-term debt.

Except as noted below, the acquisitions of Community First Bankshares, Inc. and USDB Bancorp in November 2004 were the primary reasons for the increases in noninterest income in 2005 compared with 2004.
2005 compared with 2004
The increase in service charges on deposit accounts was partially due to increased overdraft and insufficient funds charges on personal checking accounts as a result of growth in our customer base.
The increase in other service charges and fees was also partially due to increased commissions on the sale of insurance products and debit card fees as a result of internal growth. In addition there were increased fees from merchant credit card transactions from new and existing customers.
The decrease in net gains on securities available for sale was due to an other-than-temporary write-down of $1.8 million on certain equity securities recorded in the fourth quarter of 2005. See Note 6 (Securities Available for Sale) to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The increase in income from bank-owned life insurance was mostly the result of increased investment activity.

The increase in trust and investment services income was predominately due to higher income from fees on trust accounts acquired from Community First and higher income resulting from new business.
The increase in other service charges and fees was partially attributed to higher merchant services fees resulting from an increase in the number of retail merchant accounts and higher retail sales volume. Higher fees from debit card and ATM transactions also contributed to the
increase. Net gains on securities available for sale totaled $0.9 million,increase in 2004 as compared with net gains of $4.3 million. The higher gains in 2003 were due to portfolio restructuring activities.

The increase in vehicle and equipment operating lease income was due to accounting for auto leases originated from February through July 2004 as operating leases rather than direct finance leases.
A significant portion of See Note 9 (Operating Leases) to the increase in other noninterest income was attributed to gains on the disposal of certain fixed assets and higher gains on the sale of other real estate owned, partially offset by reduced gains on the sale of residential loans, lower gains on the sale of a leveraged lease and lower income from the sale of loans in the Essex subsidiary as Essex continued to retain loans in its portfolio rather than selling them.
Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.2003 compared with 2002
The increase in service charges on deposit accounts was primarily attributed to an increase in average deposit balances of approximately 11.7%, higher servicing fee income as a result of repricing changes in account analysis, higher fee income from overdraft and nonsufficient fund transactions and the full year effect of acquired UCB deposit accounts instead of only nine and a half months as in 2002.
The increase in other service charges and fees was primarily due to increased revenue resulting from a concentrated effort in growing the sales of investment products, higher commissions from the issuance of letters of credit, higher merchant services fees resulting from an increase in the number of retail merchant accounts and higher retail sales volume, higher income from debit and

2005 compared with 2004
In November 2004, the Company acquired Community First and USDB. Except as noted below, all year over year variances were predominately due to these acquisitions.
The increase in depreciation on vehicle and equipment operating leases was the result of accounting for auto leases originated from February through July 2004 as operating leases rather than direct finance leases. See Note 9 (Operating Leases) to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
The increase in advertising and promotions expense was due to higher advertising activities in 2005 related to deposit campaigns and campaigns to promote brand recognition.
The $22.5 million in restructuring and integration costs for 2005 were related to the acquisitions of Community First, USDB and Commercial Federal. Restructuring expenses were comprised of $14.6 million in contracted services, $1.5 million in travel-related expense, $2.2 million in stationery and supplies, $1.8 million in salaries and benefits, $0.2 million in advertising and promotions, $0.4 million in occupancy and $1.8 million in other miscellaneous expenses.
The increase in salaries and wages expense
in 2004 as compared with 2003 was attributable to a higher full-time equivalent employee count partly due to the acquisitions of Community First and USDB.
The increase in occupancy expense was substantially due to the acquisitions of Community First and USDB.
The increase in amortization of intangible assets was predominately a result of the amortization of the core deposit and insurance intangibles resulting from the Community First and USDB acquisitions.
The increase in depreciation on vehicle and equipment operating leases was the result of vehicle depreciation costs incurred from the change in accounting for auto leases originated from February through July 2004 as operating leases rather than direct finance leases.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The increase in other noninterest expense was partially due to higher fees resulting from increased transaction volume related to airline branded credit cards, significantly offset by a decrease in the residual value of certain leveraged leases in 2003 and lower split dollar life insurance expenses as a result of marking policies to cash surrender value.
2003 compared with 2002
The increase in salaries and wages expense was primarily attributable to the full year impact of the acquisition of UCB and normal salary increases.
The increase in employee benefits expense was primarily due to higher group healthcare insurance, increased incentive compensation, higher pension and retirement plan expense due to a recognized actuarial loss, and higher worker’s compensation insurance as a result of increased costs as well as the full year impact of UCB.
The increase in outside services expense was primarily due to higher data processing and contracted services expense resulting from the full year effect of the UCB acquisition.
The increase in amortization of intangible assets was primarily a result of the full year amortization of the core deposit intangibles resulting from the acquisition of UCB.
The decrease in advertising and promotion expenses was primarily the result of higher advertising and promotion expenses in 2002 to promote brand recognition and retain the customer base acquired through the acquisition of UCB.
The increase in other noninterest expense was primarily attributable to higher depreciation expense on software incurred as a result of the conversion of UCB operating systems, higher general liability and property insurance, higher co-branded partner fees due to increased transaction volume related to airline branded credit cards, increased charitable contributions, as well as $4.7 million in costs associated with restructuring certain leverage leases in 2003. The increase was partially offset by lower travel and restructuring costs incurred during the UCB integration as well as lower outside legal and professional expense, lower collection and repossession expense, and lower check printing charges.

Regional BankingBank of the West2005 compared with 2004
Bank of the West’s net income increased to $525.6 million, up $106.5 million, or 25.4%. Net interest income increased $256.4 million or 22.2%, primarily due to higher balances in earning assets from the acquisitions of Community First, USDB and Commercial Federal. Noninterest income increased $107.9 million, or 37.5%. The increase was due to increases in service charges on deposit accounts, debit card interchange revenue, brokerage service fees, insurance commissions and trust and syndication fees. These increases were primarily the result of the acquisitions in 2004 of Community First and USDB and to some extent the 2005 Commercial Federal acquisition. Noninterest expense increased $219.6 million, or 30.4%. The increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits and direct occupancy costs related to the 2004 and 2005 acquisitions along with additional expenses related to two de nova branches. The provision for credit losses decreased by $12.3 million.
Average assets increased $11.0 billion to $42.9 billion. Average loans increased by $6.5 billion, or 28.8%, predominately due to the acquisitions and purchases of residential loans. Average deposits increased $6.4 billion, or 30.1%, predominately due to the acquisitions and an increase in short-term certificates of deposits.
2004 compared with 2003
Bank of the West’s net income increased to $419.1 million, up $28.3 million, or 7.2%. Net interest income increased $62.7 million, or 5.7%, primarily due to higher balances in earning assets resulting from the acquisitions of Community First and USDB. Noninterest income increased $41.8 million, or 17.0%. The increase is mostly due to an increase in commission fees, syndication fees, gains on the sale of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans and recording lease payments under the operating lease method of accounting from February to July 2004, offset by a decrease in service charges and SBA servicing income. Noninterest expense increased $89.7 million, or 14.2%. The provision for credit losses decreased by $31.1 million.

This increase included the impact of the acquisition of UCB in March of 2002, offset by margin compression. Noninterest income increased $19.4 million, or 13.5%, from 10.9% growth in average deposit balances and repricing of our fee structures.

Noninterest expense increased $28.7 million, or 7.3%, compared to the prior year. Noninterest expense increased in 2003 due to the acquisition of UCB and increases in employee benefit expenses for group insurance. The provision for loan and lease losses decreased $4.0 million, or 26.0%, from the prior year due to higher recoveries of previously charged off loans. The growth in deposit balances was driven by core deposits, offset by a decline in certificates of deposits.

Consumer Finance
20032005 compared with 20022004 The Commercial Banking segment’s net income increased to $153.9 million, up $45.0 million, or 41.3%, from $108.9 million. Net interest income increased $54.0 million, or 20.6%. Noninterest income increased $16.6 million, or 52.4%. Noninterest expense increased $15.8 million or 15.6%. The provision for loan and lease losses decreased $15.3 million due to improved credit quality and a large increase in recoveries of loans previously charged off.
Commercial Banking achieved growth in loans, deposits, and net income due to strong performances in SBA lending, church lending, healthcare, and cash management, as well as the acquisitions of UCB and Trinity Capital. Interest margins on loans and leases decreased, as maturing higher yielding loans and leases were replaced by lower yielding loans and leases. Deposit margins decreased due to a declining interest rate environment. Noninterest income growth was driven by the UCB and Trinity acquisitions, loan prepayment fees, lease servicing, and strong growth in cash management, derivatives, and foreign exchange revenues. Commercial Banking pursued a strategy of leveraging efficiencies gained through the expanded resources resulting from the UCB and Trinity Capital acquisitions, while focusing on niche markets where there is a competitive advantage, such as equipment leasing, SBA lending and church lending.

Noninterest income increased $5.6 million, or 23.0% to $30.0 million. The increase is partially due to recording lease payments as noninterest income for all auto leases recorded under the operating method of accounting from February through July 2004. Noninterest expense increased $4.7 million to $86.2 million in 2005. The increase is due primarily to higher employee salaries and healthcare benefits due to increased staffing from the acquisitions and internal growth, as well as an increase in operating lease expense due to a full year of depreciation under the operating method of accounting for auto leases. These increases were offset by a reduction in certain allocated costs. The provision for credit losses decreased $4.5 million from $29.5 million in 2004 to $25.0 million in 2005, due to an improvement in credit quality.
Average assets in 2005 were $9.4 billion compared to $8.5 billion in 2004, an increase of 10.4%. This increase is due to increased indirect loan production and the addition of assets from the acquisition of Community First in the fourth quarter of 2004.

We continue
The loan and lease portfolio is the largest component of total earning assets and accounts for the greatest portion of total interest income. In 2005, we continued our efforts to diversify our loan and lease portfolio, both geographically and by industry. Our overall growth in loan and lease volume came primarily from
internal growth and the acquisitions of
Commercial Federal in the fourth quarter of 2005 and Community First and USDB in the fourth quarter of
2004. The loan and lease portfolio is the largest component2004, purchases of total earning assets and accounts for the greatest portion of total interest income. Totalresidential loans and leases increased by 27.1% from December 31, 2003 to December 31, 2004. The increase was substantially due to increases in consumer and real estate loans, with customers taking advantage of the low interest rate environment, and from the acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2004. Real estate and consumer loans increased 34.0% and 25.9%, or $3.8 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively. Commercial, financial and agricultural loans increased 34.2% from last year. In the context of interest rate trends and the broader economy, we continuously monitor the mix in our loan portfolio.
Total loans and leases increased by 6.5% from December 31, 2002 to December 31, 2003, primarily due to an increase in consumer and real estate loans as a result of the low interest rate environment.
internal growth.
Commercial, Financial and Agricultural Loans As of December 31, 2004, commercial, financial and agricultural loans represented 18.4% of total loans and leases, compared with 17.5% at December 31, 2003. The increase was mostly due to the acquisitions of Community First and USDB.
As of December 31, 2003, commercial, financial and agricultural loans totaled 17.5% of total loans and leases, compared with 19.9% at December 31, 2002. The decrease was partially due to a planned reduction in First Hawaiian’s media and syndicated national credits. We have also decreased exposures in certain commercial, financial and agricultural loans in response to concentration levels.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We seek to maintain reasonable levels of risk in commercial, financial and agricultural lending by following prudent underwriting guidelines primarily based on cash flow. Most commercial, financial and agricultural loans are collateralized and/or supported by guarantors judged to have adequate net worth. We make unsecured loans to customers based on character, net worth, liquidity and repayment ability.
Real Estate Loans
Real estate loans represent the largest category of our loan portfolio, comprising 53.4% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2005, compared with 45.6% at December 31, 2004. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Commercial Federal, whose principal subsidiary was a Federal Savings Bank, which added approximately $5.1 billion in real estate loans. A significant portion of the increase was also due to customers taking advantage of the low interest rate environment and greater loan purchases by the Company during the year. Real estate loans are divided among several diversified categories, including commercial and industrial

loans where real estate collateral is pledged as an additional source of repayment of the loans, home mortgage, home equity loans and lines and real estate construction and development.
Real estate loans represented 45.6% and 43.2% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Real estate loans increased 34.0%, or $3.8 billion, primarily from the acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2004. A significant portion of the increase is also due to customers taking advantage of the low interest rate environment and greater loan purchases during the current year.
Real estate loans increased $592 million, or 5.6%, from 2002 to 2003. Real estate loans represented 43.2% and 43.6% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. We have maintained the concentration of loans in this area primarily through the purchase of pools of residential loans and the origination of commercial real estate loans.
We seek to maintain reasonable levels of risk in real estate lending by financing projects selectively, by adhering to prudent underwriting guidelines and by closely monitoring general economic conditions affecting local real estate markets. In purchasing existing residential real estate loans, we are able to diversify our geographic exposure.
Multifamily and commercial real estate loans.We analyze each application to assess the project’s economic viability, the loan-to-value ratio of the real estate securing the financing and the underlying financial strength of the borrower. In this type of lending, we will generally: (1) lend no more than 80% of the appraised value of the underlying project or property; and, (2) require a minimum debt service ratio of 1.15.
Single-family residential loans.We will generally lend no more than 80% of the appraised value of the underlying property. Although the majority of our loans adhere to that limit, loans made in excess of that limit are generally covered by third-party mortgage insurance that reduces our equivalent risk to an 80% loan-to-appraised-value ratio.
Home equity loans.We generally lend up to 75% of appraised value or tax assessed value for first mortgages, otherwise 80-100% depending on the amount of the loan. The debt-to-income ratio should not exceed 45% and a good credit history is required.
As of February 2006, approximately $439 million of home equity loans that were acquired in the Commercial Federal acquisition have loan-to-value ratios of 90% or greater. We also have additional commitments related to unfunded home equity lines of credit of approximately $72 million. While the future performance of these loans and lines of credit is not known, there is a possibility that they will not perform as well as those with lower loan-to-value ratios. The performance of these loans is partially dependent on the properties’ geographical locations. These loans are primarily located in Midwestern states.
Consumer loans consist primarily of open- and closed-end direct and indirect loans for personal, automobile, recreational vehicle, pleasure boat and household purchases. We seek to maintain reasonable levels of risk in consumer lending by following prudent underwriting guidelines, which include an evaluation of: (1) personal credit history; (2) personal cash flow; and (3) collateral
valuesvalue based on existing market conditions.
Consumer loans, including financing of automobiles, recreational vehicles and pleasure boats, totaled 24.4% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2005, compared with 28.3% in 2004. The balance increased $1.4 billion, or 15.2%, from last year primarily due to continued confidence in the consumer market and attractive interest rates. A significant portion of the increase was also due to the acquisition of Commercial Federal.
Consumer loans, including financing of automobiles, recreational vehicles and pleasure boats, totaled 28.3% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2004, compared

iswas primarily due to higher confidence in the consumer market and attractive interest rates. A significant portion of the increase
iswas also due to the acquisitions of Community First and USDB. Low interest rates
have made purchase financing for automobiles more attractive than leasing.
Lease Financing
In 2005 lease financing represented 5.0% of total loans and leases as compared to 6.5% in 2004, and 9.4% in 2003. Consumer
loans increased $1.3 billion or 22.0%lease financing has experienced only modest growth in response to the relatively low interest rate environment which has changed consumer preferences away from
2002 to 2003. The increase was primarily due to confidence in the consumer market and attractive interest rates on consumer lending.Lease Financing
Lease financing as of December 31, 2004 decreased from last year due to a change in the method of accounting for new vehicle leases from finance leases to operating leases during the period of February through July 2004 as we did not obtain residual insurance on an individual lease basis. These auto leases were accounted for as operating leases that are reflected in other assets on our balance sheet and are depreciated over their useful lives. Income from these auto leases was reported as noninterest income. Prior to February

BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSand after July 2004, we accounted for vehicle leases as direct financing leases as we obtained residual insurance on an individual lease basis. Unearned income on financing leases is accreted over the lives of the leases to provide a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease.
In 2004 lease financing represented 6.5% of total loans and leases as compared to 9.4% in 2003, and 9.9% in 2002. Consumer lease financing is declining in response to the decline in interest rates which has changed consumer preferences away from lease financing. The proportionate decrease was also due to the acquisitions of Community First and USDB, in which the lease financing obtained was a small percentage of the total loans acquired.
Loan and Lease Concentrations Loan and lease concentrations exist when there are loans to multiple borrowers who are engaged in similar activities and thus would be impacted by the same economic or other conditions. At December 31,
2004,2005, we did not have a concentration of loans and leases greater than 10% of total loans and leases, which
werewas not otherwise disclosed as a category in the table above.
The loan and lease portfolio is predominately located in California, Hawaii, and other states in the Western United States. We also lend, to a lesser extent, nationally and in Guam and Saipan. The risk inherent in the portfolio is dependent upon both the economic stability of the areas in which we lend and the financial well-being and creditworthiness of the borrowers.
Loan and Lease Maturities The contractual maturities of loans and leases
(shown in the table below) do not necessarily reflect the actual maturities of our loan and lease portfolio. In our experience, the average life of residential real estate and consumer loans is substantially less than their contractual terms because borrowers prepay loans.
In general, the average life of real estate loans tends to increase when current interest rates exceed rates on existing loans. In contrast, borrowers are more likely to prepay loans when current interest rates are below the rates on existing loans. The volume of such prepayments depends upon changes in both the absolute level of interest rates, the relationship between fixed and adjustable-rate loans and the relative values of the underlying collateral. As a result, the average life of our fixed-rate real estate loans has varied widely.
At December 31,
2004,2005, loans and leases with contractual maturities of over one year were comprised of fixed-rate loans totaling
$15.9$20.9 billion and floating or adjustable-rate loans totaling
$9.8$12.7 billion.
The following table sets forth the contractual maturities of our loan and lease portfolio by category at December 31, 2004.2005. Demand loans are included as due within one year.

| (1) | | Includes a $645 thousand Troubled Debt Restructuring acquired in connection with the acquisition of Commercial Federal. |
| (2) | | Represents loans and leases which are past due 90 days or more as to principal and/or interest, are still accruing interest, are adequately collateralized and are in the process of collection. |
We generally place a loan or lease on nonaccrual status when we believe that collection of principal or interest has become doubtful or when loans or leases are 90 days past due as to principal or interest, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection.
We may make an exception to the general 90-day-past-due rule when the fair value of the collateral exceeds our recorded investment in the loan. Consumer loans and leases are subject to our general policies regarding nonaccrual loans and substantially all past-due consumer loans and leases are charged off upon reaching a predetermined delinquency status varying from 120 to 180 days, depending on product type.
When we place a loan or lease on nonaccrual status, previously accrued and uncollected interest is reversed against interest income of the current period. When we receive a cash payment on a nonaccrual loan, we apply it as a reduction of the principal balance when we have doubts about the ultimate collection of the principal. Otherwise, we record such payments as income.
Nonaccrual loans and leases are generally returned to accrual status when they: (1) become current as to principal and interest and have demonstrated a sustained period of payment performance or (2) become both well secured and in the process of collection.

The provision for loan and lease losses is based on management’s judgment as to the adequacy of the Allowance. Management uses a systematic methodology to determine the related provision for loan and lease
losses to be reported for financial statement purposes.losses. The determination of the adequacy of the Allowance is ultimately one of management judgment, which includes consideration of many factors such as: (1) the amount of problem
and potential problem loans and
leases;leases existing at the balance sheet date (whether or not specifically identified at that date); (2) net charge-off experience; (3) changes in the composition of the loan and lease portfolio by type and location of loans and leases; (4) changes in overall loan and lease risk profile and quality; (5) general economic factors; (6) specific regional economic factors; and (7) the fair value of collateral.
Using this methodology, we allocate the Allowance to individual loans and leases and to categories of loans and leases representing probable losses based on available information. At least quarterly, we conduct internal credit analyses to determine which loans and leases are impaired. As a result, we allocate specific amounts of the Allowance to individual loan and lease relationships. Each impaired relationship over $1,000,000 and classified substandard or doubtful is evaluated quarterly on a case-by-case basis. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements describes how we evaluate loans for impairment. Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements details additional information regarding the Allowance and impaired loans.
Some categories of loans and leases are not subjected to a loan-by-loan credit analysis. Management makes an allocation to these categories based on our analysis of historic trends of impairment and charge-offs of such loans and leases. Additionally, we allocate a portion of the Allowance based on risk classifications of certain loan types. Some of the Allowance is not allocated to specific impaired loans because of the subjective nature of the process of estimating an adequate allowance for loan and lease losses, economic uncertainties and other factors.

Net charge-offs were $59.3 million, a decrease of $4.6 million. Total loans and leases charged off decreased $3.2 million. This decrease was due to a $7.0 million decrease in charge-offs for commercial, financial and agricultural loans and a $7.9 million decrease in lease financing, partially offset by an increase of $9.8 million in consumer loan charge-offs, primarily due to the increased size of the consumer loan portfolio. The decrease in net charge-offs was primarily due to the improved credit quality of our loan portfolio, as well as the continuing strong economy in the western United States.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The Company uses a systematic methodology to determine the adequacy of the Allowance and related provision for loan and lease losses to be reported for financial statement purposes. The determination of the adequacy of the Allowance is ultimately one of judgment, which includes consideration of many factors, including, among other things, the amount of problem and potential problem loans and leases, net charge-off experience, changes in the composition of the loan and lease portfolio by type and location, changes in overall risk profile and quality, general economic factors and the fair value of collateral.
In our judgment, the Allowance was adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio at December 31, 2004.2005. However, changes in prevailing economic conditions in our markets could result in changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs in the future and, accordingly, changes in the Allowance. We will continue to closely monitor economic developments and make adjustments to the Allowance accordingly.
The company uses the guidance in Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3,Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer,to account for loans acquired where there is deterioration in credit quality and it is probable that we would be unable to collect all contractually required payments. In connection with our acquisition of Commercial Federal on December 2, 2005, the Company acquired loans where there was evidence of deterioration in credit quality and it was probable that we would be unable to collect all contractually required payments. These loans are on nonaccrual status and the Company recorded them at their estimated fair value of $51.8 million. In addition, the Company acquired a $76.2 million allowance for loan and lease losses from Commercial Federal.

whichto provide funding for our balance sheet and operations. These commitments include time deposits, short-term and long-term borrowings, leases and other financial obligations.
The Company issues standby letters of credit, which include performance and financial guarantees, on behalf of customers in connection with contracts between the customers and third parties whereby the Company assures that the third parties will receive specified funds if customers fail to meet their contractual obligations. Standby letters of credit totaled
$824.2$854.6 million at December 31,
2004,2005, including financial guarantees of
$774.9$781.8 million that the Company had issued or in which it purchased participations.
Commercial and similar letters of credit totaled $70.3 million at December 31, 2005. A major portion of all fees received from the issuance of standby letters of credit are deferred and, at December 31,
2004,2005, were immaterial to the Company’s financial statements. If the counterparty to a commitment to extend credit or to a standby or commercial letter of credit fails to perform, our exposure to loan and lease losses would be the contractual notional amount. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash flows. For more information on our credit extension commitments please refer to Note 7 (Loans and Leases) to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company enters into indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business under which the Company agrees to indemnify third parties against any damages, losses and expenses incurred in connection with legal and other proceedings arising from relationships or transactions with the Company. These relationships or transactions include those arising from service as a director or officer of the Company, underwriting agreements relating to the Company’s securities, securities lending, acquisition agreements, and various other business transactions or arrangements. Because the extent of the Company’s obligations under these indemnification agreements depends entirely upon the occurrence of future events, the Company’s potential future liability under these agreements is not determinable.
Retained or Contingent Interest The Company has provided liquidity facilities for our SBA loans. We retained a portion of the interest in the loans
thereby providing a cushion to the senior interests in the event that a portion of the
receivablesloans becomes uncollectible. Total outstanding risk is
$1.4$5.0 million and has been recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
While not a major liquidity source, the Company sells residential mortgages and other loans and has in prior years sold securitized mortgage loans. Retained interests in securitized assets, including debt securities, are initially recorded at their allocated carrying amounts based on the relative fair value of assets sold and retained. Retained interests in interest only strips are subsequently carried at fair value, which is generally estimated based on the present value of expected cash flows, calculated using management’s best estimates of key assumptions, including loan and lease losses, loan repayment speeds and discount rates commensurate with risks involved. Gains and losses related to the sales of retained interests are recorded in noninterest income.
Off-balance sheet agreements are subject to the same credit and market risk limitations as those
of assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheet. Our testing to measure and monitor this risk, using net interest income simulations and market value of equity analysis, is conducted quarterly.

BENEFIT PLANS
The Company sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan, which is a merger of two separate plans. The first plan, for First Hawaiian employees, was frozen at December 31, 1995. As a result of that freeze, there are no further benefit accruals for First Hawaiian employees in the merged plan. The second plan, for Bank of the West employees, is a cash balance pension plan. The merged employee retirement plan (“ERP”) continues to provide cash balance benefit accruals for eligible Bank of the West employees.
The Company also sponsors an unfunded excess benefit pension plan covering employees whose pay or benefits exceed certain regulatory limits, unfunded postretirement medical and life insurance plans, and, for certain key executives, an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”).
BancWest also has a non-qualified pension plan (the “Outside Directors’ Retirement Plan”) that provides a retirement benefit for eligible directors based on their years of service as a director.
Accounting for defined benefit pension plans involves four key economic variables that are utilized in the calculation of the Company’s annual pension costs. These factors include (1) size of the employee population and their estimated compensation increases, (2) actuarial assumptions and estimates, (3) expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and (4) the discount rate.
Pension expense is directly affected by the number of employees eligible for pension benefits and their estimated compensation increases. Management is able to estimate compensation increases by reviewing the Company’s salary increases each year and comparing these figures with industry averages. The Company uses a December 31st measurement date for its pension and post retirement plans.
In estimating the projected benefit obligation, actuaries base assumptions on demographic factors such as the mortality rate, turnover rate, retirement rate, disability rate and other assumptions related to the population of individuals in the pension plan. If significant actuarial gains or losses occur, the actuary reviews the demographic and economic assumptions with the Company, at which time the Company considers revising these assumptions based on actual circumstances. During 2005, the pension plans experienced an overall loss of approximately $48.5 million, including $18.6 million attributable to lower than expected asset return, $1.9 million due to net demographic gains and losses and $28.0 million due to changes in economic assumptions.
During 2005, the Company changed the discount rate from 5.75% to 5.50% and adjusted the mortality rate to the RP-2000 Mortality Table. These changes resulted in an increase in the pension obligation of approximately $28.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The change in discount rate, mortality and medical trend assumptions increased the other post employment benefit obligations by approximately $2.4 million as of December 31, 2005. In addition, the Company changed the expected long-term rate of return assumption on plan assets from 9.5% to 9%, which resulted in an increase of net periodic pension cost for 2005 by approximately $2 million.
No contributions to the pension trust for funded plans are expected to be made during 2006. However, should the accumulated benefit obligation of the funded plans exceed the fair value of assets as of December 31, 2006, then the Company expects to make a contribution at least equal to the unfunded accumulated benefit obligation prior to December 31, 2006. This amount, if any, cannot be estimated until near year end.

the ParentBancWest is primarily provided by dividend and interest income from its subsidiaries. Short-term cash requirements are met through liquidation of short-term investments. Longer-term liquidity is provided by access to the capital markets or from transactions with BancWest’s parent company, BNP Paribas.
The Parent’s
BancWest’s ability to pay dividends to BNP Paribas depends primarily upon dividends and other payments from its subsidiaries, which are subject to certain limitations as described in Note 17 (Limitation on Payments of Dividends) to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our approach to managing exposure to credit risk involves an integrated program of setting appropriate standards for credit underwriting and diversification, monitoring trends that may affect the risk profile of the credit portfolio and making appropriate adjustments to reflect changes in economic and financial conditions that could affect the quality of the portfolio and loss probability. The components of this integrated program include:

| | • | | Setting Underwriting and Grading Standards.Our loan grading system uses ten different principal risk categories where 1 is nosubstantially risk free risk and 10 is loss. We continue efforts to decrease our exposure to customers in the weaker credit categories. The cost of credit risk is an integral part of the pricing and evaluation of credit decisions and the setting of portfolio targets. |
| |
| | • | | Diversification.We actively manage our credit portfolio to avoid excessive concentration by obligor, risk grade, industry, product and geographic location. As part of this process, we also monitor changes in risk correlation among concentration categories. In addition, we seek to reduce our exposure to concentrations by actively participating portions of our commercial and commercial real estate loans to other banks. |

| | • | | Emphasis on Consumer Lending.Consumer loans, represent our single largest category of loansincludes personal, automobiles, recreational vehicle, pleasure boats and leases.household purchases. We use formula-based approaches to calculate appropriate reserve levels that reflect historical loss experience. We generally do not participate in subprime lending activities. We also seek to reduce our credit exposures where feasible by obtaining third-party insurance or similar protections. For example, in our vehicle lease portfolio (which represents approximately 39.7%29.1% of our lease financing portfolio and 7.4%5.0% of our combined consumer lease financing and consumer loans at December 31, 2004)2005), we obtain third-party insurance for the estimated residual value of the leased vehicle, and set aside reserves to cover the uninsured portion. |

| • | | Real estate mortgage loans.The residential first mortgage portfolio is well diversified and conservatively underwritten. Just over 40% of the loans, in terms of dollars, are located in California followed by Hawaii, Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa with approximately 19.1%, 5.6%, 4.2%, 3.3% and 2.9%, respectively. Our growing diversified presence in the mountain and midwest states is a result of our recent acquisition of Commercial Federal Bank. Variable rate mortgages represent approximately 24% of the portfolio with the balance being fixed rate products. Just under 89% of the portfolio are mortgages with a loan-to-value ratio of 80% or less at origination. The majority of the balance are either government guaranteed products (Federal Housing Administration or U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs) or are conventional mortgages enhanced with private mortgage insurance. |
RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS We have adopted numerous new or modifications to existing standards, rules or regulations
The following section highlights important developments in the area of accounting and disclosure requirements as promulgated by various standard setting and regulatory bodies. Chief among these are the Federalfederal financial institutions regulators, the SEC and the FASB. The following section highlights important developments in the area of accounting and disclosure requirements. This discussion is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of the impact of all standards and rules adopted.
In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statements No. 140. This statement requires the recognition of a servicing asset or servicing liability at the time of entering into an obligation to service a financial asset. If practicable, this statement requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value. After the initial measurement, this statement permits an entity to amortize servicing assets and servicing liabilities over the servicing period or measure the fair value at each reporting date and report the change in fair values within earnings of the current period. In addition, this statement requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities within the balance sheet and requires disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company will assess the impact of this statement on its financial statements and determine whether it will use the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for subsequent measurement.
In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 155,Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140. This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of Statement 133, establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
bifurcation, clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives and amends Statement 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company will assess the impact of this statement on its financial statements.
In November 2005, the FASB published FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. This FSP nullifies the requirements of paragraphs 10-18 within Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 03-1,The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.This FSP clarifies the impairment methodology used to determine when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other than temporary and the measurement of an impairment loss. The guidance includes accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. This FSP applies to all investments accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 115), certain debt and equity securities within the scope of FASB Statement No. 124, and equity securities that are not subject to the scope of FAS 115 and are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The guidance in this FSP is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005.
In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154,Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. This statement requires changes in accounting principles and corrections of errors to be applied retroactively to prior periods, unless it is deemed impracticable to do so. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Currently, the application of this statement does not have an impact to our financial statements. However, the future impact could be significant if the Company were to elect changes to our accounting principles, or discover errors in previously issued financial statements.
In December 2004, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)FASB issued
FASB Statement No. 153,
Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions(FASB 153). This statement is based upon the principle that transactions involving nonmonetary assets should be measured based upon their fair market value. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe this statement will have a material impact on our financial statements, as we do not frequently enter into nonmonetary transactions.
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004)
,Accounting for Share-Based Payment.This statement requires stock options awarded to employees
to be expensed over the vesting period of the option, at the fair value at the grant date using an option-pricing model. This statement is effective
for annual and interim periodsat the beginning
of the next fiscal year that begins after June 15, 2005.
TheAt December 31, 2005, the Company
currently accountsaccounted for
stock basedstock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25
(APB 25)Accounting for Stock Issued to Employeesand related Interpretations, as allowed under FASB Statement
No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
On January 1, 2006, the Company began expensing stock option awards using the modified prospective application, as allowed by this statement. This pronouncement
increasesincreased the amount of compensation expense per period,
by the amount outlined within Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to our Consolidated Financial Statements. However, we believe this amount will have an immaterial effect on our financial statements. On July 16, 2004, the FASB ratified the decisions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) with respect to Issue 02-14,Whether the Equity Method of Accounting Applies When an Investor Does Not Have an Investment in Voting Stock of an Investee but Exercises Significant Influence through Other Means.The EITF reached a consensus that an investor should apply the equity method of accounting whenhowever, it has investments in either common stock or “in-substance common stock” of a corporation, provided that the investor has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee. In-substance common stock, as defined in the consensus, is an investment that has risk and reward characteristics, among other factors, that are substantially the same as common stock. The equity method of accounting must be applied for all investments in which the investor

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
exercises significant influence over the investee and that qualify as in-substance common stock for reporting periods beginning after September 15, 2004. The adoption of this statement diddoes not have a material effect onsignificant impact to our financial statements.
In June 2004, the EITF published EITF 03-1,The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments(EITF 03-1). EITF 03-1 clarifies the impairment methodology used to determine when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other than temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. The guidance includes accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. EITF 03-1 applies to all investments accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FAS 115, certain debt and equity securities within the scope of Statement 124, and equity securities that are not subject to the scope of Statement 115 and not accounted for under the equity method of accounting. On September 30, 2004, the FASB staff published FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-1-1. FSP EITF 03-1-1 delays the effective date for the measurement and recognition guidance contained in Paragraphs 10–20 of EITF Issue No. 03-1,The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments,while the FASB considers application guidance. We will evaluate any new guidance on the above mentioned paragraphs upon final issuance.
On March 9, 2004 the SEC released a Staff Accounting Bulletin: No. 105,Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments (SAB 105), which provides guidance pertaining to interest rate locks of loan commitments accounted for as derivative instruments. It states that cash flows pertaining to mortgage servicing should not be included in the value of the derivative. We account for such rate locks in accordance with SAB 105.
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 loans and debt securities acquired after December 15, 2004. The Company is not able to estimate the impact that the SOP will have on its financial statements as the effect will be specific to potential future loan purchases.
On December 8, 2003 President Bush signed the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the “Act”). The Act introduces a prescription drug benefit under Medicare as well as a federal subsidy to plan sponsors that provide a benefit that is at least equivalent to Medicare. On May 19, 2004, the FASB issued staff Position 106-2,Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003.There was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Interest Rate Risk Measurement and Management Interest rate risk, one of the leading risks in terms of potential earnings impact, is an essential element of being a financial intermediary. The Company’s net interest income is subject to interest rate risk to the extent our interest-bearing liabilities (primarily deposits and borrowings) mature or reprice on a different basis than our interest-earning assets (primarily loans, leases and securities available for sale)investment securities). When interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly than interest-earning assets during a given period, an increase in interest rates could reduce net interest income. Similarly, when interest-earning assets mature or reprice more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, a decrease in interest rates could have a negative impact on net interest income. In addition, the impact of interest rate swings may be exacerbated by factors such as our customers’ propensity to manage their demand deposit balances more or less aggressively or to refinance loans. ShortShort- and long-term market rates may change independent of each other, resulting in changes to the slope and absolute level of the yield curve.
The Asset/Liability Committees of BancWest and its major subsidiaries are responsible for managing interest rate risk. The Asset/Liability Committees generally meet monthly or quarterly. The committees may recommend changes to a particular

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Asset/Liability Committees of BancWest and its two bank subsidiaries are responsible for managing interest rate risk. The Asset/Liability Committees of the banks meet monthly and the Asset/Liability Committee of the Company meets quarterly. The committees may recommend changes to a particular subsidiary’s interest rate profile to their respective Board of Directors, should changes be necessary and depart significantly from established policies.
Our exposure to interest rate risk is managed primarily by taking actions that impact certain balance sheet accounts (e.g., lengthening or shortening maturities in the investment portfolio, changing asset and/or liability mix
-— including increasing or decreasing the amount of fixed and/or variable instruments held by the Company
-— to adjust sensitivity to interest rate changes) and/or utilizing instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps, floors, options or forwards.
The Company may choose to increase the usage of interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to changes in interest rates of both assets and liabilities. The use of these derivatives may result in changes in the composition of the balance sheet, the effective duration of both assets and/or liabilities and the mix of certain asset or liability categories.
Derivatives entered into for trading purposes include commitments to purchase and sell foreign currencies and certain interest rate swaps and options. We also enter into customer accommodation interest rate swaps and foreign exchange spot and forward contracts, as well as contracts to offset either the customer’s counter-position or our foreign currency denominated deposits. These contracts
basically offset each othergenerally are offsetting and they do not expose us to material losses resulting from interest rate or foreign currency fluctuations.
The Company and its subsidiaries use computer simulation models to evaluate net interest income in order to quantify exposure to changes in interest rates. Generally, the
size of the balance sheet is
held relatively constant and then subjected to
a range of interest rate changes including interest rate shocks up in
100-basis-point100 basis-point increments and down in
50100 basis-point increments. Each account-level item is repriced according to its respective contractual characteristics, including any embedded options which might exist (e.g., periodic interest rate caps or floors or loans and leases which permit the borrower to prepay the principal balance of the loan or lease prior to maturity without penalty). Derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps or floors are included as part of the modeling process. For each interest rate shock scenario, net interest income over a 12-month horizon is compared against the results of a scenario in which no interest rate change occurs (flat rate scenario) to determine the level of interest rate risk at that time.
The projected impact of incrementalinstantaneous and sustained increases and decreases in interest rates on the Company’s projected consolidated net interest income over the 12 months beginning January 1, 20052006 is shown below.

| | | |
Because of the relatively low level of interest rates in 2004, modeling below a 100-basis-point decrease was deemed not meaningful. The changes in the models are due to differences in interest rate environments which include the absolute level of interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, and spreads between various benchmark rates.
Significant Assumptions Utilized and Inherent Limitations The net interest income changes for each interest rate scenario presented above include assumptions based on accelerating or decelerating mortgage and non-mortgage consumer loan prepayments in declining or rising scenarios, respectively, and adjusting deposit levels and mix in the different interest rate scenarios. The magnitude of changes to both areas in turn are based upon analyses of customers’ behavior in differing rate environments. However, these analyses may differ from actual future customer behavior. For example, actual prepayments may differ from current assumptions as prepayments are affected by many variables which cannot be predicted with certainty (e.g., prepayments of mortgages may differ on fixed and adjustable loans depending upon current interest rates, expectations of future interest rates, availability of refinancing, economic benefit to borrower, financial viability of borrower, etc.).
As with any model for analyzing interest rate risk, certain limitations are inherent in the method of analysis presented above. For example, the actual impact on net interest income due to certain interest rate shocks may differ from those projections presented should market conditions vary from assumptions used in the analysis. Furthermore, the analysis does not consider the effects of a changed level of overall economic activity that could exist in certain interest rate environments. Moreover, the method of analysis used does not take into account the actions that management might take to respond to changes in interest rates because of inherent difficulties in determining the likelihood or impact of any such response.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Impact of Interest Rate Changes
The flattening of the yield curve in 2005 affected the net interest income of Bank of the West as its balance sheet is liability sensitive. The cost of short-term borrowings increased, while the return on the longer duration assets were unchanged, as the middle and long end of the yield curve did not shift. In addition, those assets with mortgage components had their durations extended with the flattening of the front end of the yield curve. To mitigate this impact, we increased the usage of longer-term, fixed-rate Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings and initiated transactions that would decrease expected borrowing costs in a flat rate yield curve environment. Also mitigating the impact on BancWest overall was the fact that deposit rates in First Hawaiian Bank’s market experienced less upward pressure.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the Company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates. Our critical accounting policies are those that affect our financial statements materially and involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments by management.

Cash and Due from Banks
Cash and due from banks includes amounts from other financial institutions as well as in-transit clearings. Under the terms of the Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control Act, the Company is required to place reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank based on the amount of deposits held. The average amount of these reserve balances, including coin and currency, was
$668.4 million for 2005, $562.3 million for 2004
and $528.0 million for
2003 and $307.9 million for 2002.2003.
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, Federal Funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell (with original maturities of less than three months) to be cash equivalents.

Securities
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Securities
Securities consist predominately of debt and asset-backed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury,
other U.S. Government agencies,
and corporations, government sponsored agencies and state and local government units. These securities have been adjusted for amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts using the interest method. All securities are recorded on a trade date basis. Securities are classified
into three categories and accounted for in accordance
to SFASwith FAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.”
TheseThe categories are as follows:
| (1) | Held-to-maturity securities are debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. These securities are reported at amortized cost. |
|
(2) | Trading securities are debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. These securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in current earnings. |
| |
(3)(2) | | Securities available for sale are debt and equity securities which the Company does not classified as either held-to-maturity orhave a positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and which are not trading securities. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholder’s equity. |
Gains and losses realized on the sales of securities are determined using the specific identification method.
Loans Held for Sale Loans
Once a decision is made to sell a loan that was not originated as or acquired with the intent to sell, the loan is considered held for sale
areand recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value.
Loans held in portfolio are recorded at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred loan costs or fees and any discounts or premiums on purchased loans. Deferred costs or fees, discounts and premiums are amortized using the interest method over the contractual term of the loan adjusted for actual prepayments.
We recognize unamortized fees,
costs, premiums and
premiumsdiscounts on loans and leases paid in full as a component of interest income. Interest income is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding unless the loan is determined to be impaired and placed on nonaccrual status. (See Impaired and Nonaccrual Loans and Leases below.)
We also charge other loan and lease fees consisting of delinquent payment charges and other common loan and lease servicing fees, including fees for servicing loans sold to third parties. We recognize these fees as income when earned.
We provide lease financing under a variety of arrangements, primarily consumer automobile leases, commercial equipment leases and leveraged leases.
| • | | Unearned income on financing leases is accreted over the lives of the leases to provide a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. |
| |
| • | | Leveraged lease transactions are subject to outside financing through one or more participants, without recourse to the Company. These transactions are accounted for by recording as the net investment in each lease the aggregate of rentals receivable (net of principal and interest on the related nonrecourse debt) and the estimated residual value of the equipment less the unearned income. Income from these lease transactions is recognized during the periods in which the net investment is positive. |

principal and interest on the related nonrecourse debt) and the estimated residual value of the equipment less the unearned income. Income from these lease transactions is recognized during the periods in which the net investment is positive.
Impaired and Nonaccrual Loans and Leases
We evaluate certain loans and leases for impairment on a case-by-case basis. Examples of such loans and leases include commercial loans, commercial real estate loans and construction loans. We consider a loan
or lease to be impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. We measure impairment based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s
or lease’s effective interest rate, except for collateral-dependent
loans.loans and leases.
For collateral-dependent loans and leases, we measure impairment based on the fair value of the collateral.collateral less disposition cost. On a case-by-case basis, we may measure impairment based upon a loan’s or lease’s observable market price.
56
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We collectively evaluate for impairment large groups or pools of homogeneous loans with smaller balances that are not evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Examples of such small balance portfolios are consumer loans, residential mortgage loans and small business loans. The risk assessment process includes the use of estimates to determine
theany inherent loss in these portfolios. Loss forecast estimates are utilized for consumer products, which consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss experience
and estimated defaults or foreclosures based on portfolio trends and delinquencies. These factors are updated frequently to capture changes in the characteristics of subject portfolios and changes in the Company’s business strategies.
We generally place a loan
or lease on nonaccrual status:
| • | | When management believes that collection of principal or incomeinterest has become doubtful; or |
| |
| • | | When loans or leases are 90 days past due as to principal or interest, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection. We may make an exception to the general 90-day-past-due rule when the fair value of the collateral exceeds our recorded investment in the loan or lease or when other factors indicate that the borrower will shortly bring the loan or lease current. |
Not all impaired loans are necessarily placed on nonaccrual status; for example, restructured loans performing under restructured terms beyond a specific period may be classified as accruing, but may still be deemed impaired. Impaired loans without a related allowance for loan and lease losses are generally collateralized by assets with fair values in excess of the recorded investment in the loans.
We generally apply interest payments on impaired loans to reduce the outstanding principal amount of such loans. When we place a loan or lease on nonaccrual status, previously accrued and uncollected interest is reversed against interest income of the current period. When we receive a cash interest payment on a nonaccrual loan or lease, we apply it as a reduction of the principal balance when we have doubts about the ultimate collection of the principal. Otherwise, we record such payments as income.
Nonaccrual loans and leases are generally returned to accrual status when they: (1) become current as to principal and interest and have demonstrated a sustained period of payment performance; or (2) become both well secured and in the process of collection.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses We maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses (the “Allowance”) at a level which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb probable losses in the Company’s loan and lease portfolio. While the Company has a formalized methodology for determining an adequate and appropriate level of the Allowance, estimates of inherent loan and lease losses involve judgment and assumptions as to various factors which deserve current recognition in the Allowance. Principal factors considered by management in determining the Allowance include historical loss experience, the value and adequacy of collateral, the level of nonperforming loans and leases, the growth and composition of the portfolio, periodic review of loan and lease delinquencies, results of examinations of individual loans and leases and/or evaluation of the overall portfolio by senior credit personnel, internal auditors and regulators, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay and general economic conditions.
The Allowance consists of two components, allocated and unallocated. The allocated portion of the allowance includes reserves that are allocated based on impairment analyses of specific loans or pools of loans as described under “Impaired and Nonaccrual Loans and Leases” above. The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained to cover uncertainties in the range of probable outcomes inherent in the estimate of inherent losses. These uncertainties include the imprecision inherent in the forecasting methodologies and certain industry and geographic concentrations (including global economic uncertainty). Management
48
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
assesses each of these components to determine the overall level of the unallocated portion. The relationship of the unallocated component to the total allowance for loan and lease losses may fluctuate from period to period. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses based on the combined total of allocated and unallocated components.
The Allowance is increased by provisions for loan and lease losses and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.
Charge-offs for loans and leases that are evaluated for impairment are made based on impairment evaluations as described above. Consumer loans and leases are generally charged off upon reaching a predetermined delinquency status that ranges from 120 to 180 days and varies by product type. Other loans and leases may be charged off to the extent they are classified as loss, either internally or by the Company’s regulators. Recoveries of amounts that have previously been charged off are credited to the Allowance and are generally recorded only to the extent that cash is received.
The provision for loan and lease losses reflects management’s judgment of the current period cost of credit risk inherent in the Company’s loan and lease portfolio. Specifically, the provision for loan and lease losses represents the amount charged against current period earnings to achieve an allowance for loan and lease losses that in management’s judgment is adequate to absorb probable losses

inherent in the Company’s loan and lease portfolio. Accordingly, the provision for loan and lease losses will vary from period to period based on management’s ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the Allowance.
Premises and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
10-5010-39 years for premises,
3-253-20 years for equipment and the lower of the lease term or remaining life for leasehold improvements.
Operating lease rental income for leased assets, generally automobiles, is recognized on a straight-line basis. Related depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease taking into account the estimated residual value of the leased asset. On a periodic basis, leased assets are reviewed for impairment. Impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of leased assets exceeds their fair value and is not recoverable. The carrying amount of leased assets is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the lease payments and the estimated residual value upon the eventual disposition of the equipment. Auto lease receivables are written off when 120 days past due.
Core Deposit
Intangible Assets
The accounting and
Other Identifiable Intangible Assets Core depositreporting for business combinations and other identifiable intangible assets are amortized over the period of benefit. In September 2001, the FASB issuedgoverned primarily by SFAS No. 141,Business Combinationswhich supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinionand SFAS No. 16,142,Business Combinations,Goodwill and addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations.Other Intangible Assets. All business combinations in the scope of SFAS No. 141 are to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. We follow the guidance set forth in SFAS No. 141 for initial recognition of goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Included in the provisions of SFAS No. 141 are criteria for identifying and recognizing intangible assets apart from goodwill and additional disclosure requirements concerning the primary reasons for a business combination and the allocation of the purchase price for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. After initial recognition, intangible assets are accounted for under the provisions of SFAS No. 142 which supersedes APB Opinion No. 17,Intangible Assets, and addresses the accounting and reporting for goodwill and other intangible assets acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) at and addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for subsequent to acquisition. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, goodwill
Core deposit and
certain other intangible
assets, which do not possess finite lives, are no longer amortized into net income over an estimated life but rather will be tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets determined to have finite lives
continue to beare amortized over their estimated useful lives and
are also
continue to be subject to impairment testing. We review core deposit and other identifiable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that we may not recover our investment in the underlying assets or liabilities which gave rise to such core deposit and other identifiable intangible assets.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the cost of acquired
companiesbusinesses in excess of the fair value of net assets of those acquired
companies.businesses. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, goodwill and certain other intangible assets, which do not possess finite lives, are not amortized into net income over an estimated life but rather are tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill is subject to a two-step impairment test
in accordance with SFAS 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets..The first step of impairment testing compares the fair value of the reporting unit, which is an individual business segment of the Company (refer to
49

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 20), to the carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, then a second step is conducted whereby we assign fair values to identifiable assets and liabilities, leaving an implied fair value for goodwill. The implied fair value is compared with the carrying amount of the goodwill. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, and between annual tests if circumstances change that would reduce the fair value of goodwill below its carrying value. Goodwill was subjected to a transitional impairment test during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 and none was identified. The Company’s goodwill was subsequently tested for impairment as of October 31, 2005, 2004 2003 and 20022003 and none was identified.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Personal Property Other real estate owned (“OREO”) and repossessed personal property is primarily comprised of properties that we acquired through foreclosure proceedings. We value these properties at the lower of cost or fair value at the time we acquire them, which establishes their new cost basis. We charge against the Allowance any losses arising at the time of acquisition of such properties. After we acquire them, we carry such properties at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. If we record any write-downs or losses from the disposition of such properties after acquiring them, we include this amount in other noninterest expense.

Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets A transfer of financial assets is accounted for as a sale when control is surrendered over the assets transferred. Servicing rights and other retained interests in the assets sold are recorded by allocating the previously recorded investment between the asset sold and the interest retained based on their relative fair values, if practicable to determine, at the date of transfer. Fair values of servicing rights and other retained interests are determined using present value of estimated future cash flows valuation techniques, incorporating assumptions that market participants would use in their estimates of values.
The Company recognizes as assets the retained rights to service loans for others resulting from sales of loan originations. These rights are periodically assessed for impairment. Any such indicated impairment is recognized in income, during the period in which it occurs. Servicing rights are amortized over the period of estimated net servicing income. The amortization takes into account prepayment assumptions and is included in the consolidated statement of income under the caption, “other service charges and fees.” For the years presented, servicing assets, the related amortization and other retained interests were not material.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities sold under agreements to repurchase generally qualify as financing transactions under generally accepted accounting principles. We carry such securities at the amounts which they subsequently will be resold or reacquired as specified in the respective agreements, including accrued interest. It is our policy to take possession of securities purchased under agreements to resell. We monitor the fair value of the underlying securities as compared to the related receivable, including accrued interest, and as necessary we request additional collateral. Where deemed appropriate, our agreements with third parties specify our right to request additional collateral. The Company or a custodian holds all collateral.
We recognize current income tax expense in an amount which approximates the amount of tax to be paid or refunded for the current period. We recognize deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that we include in our financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, we determine deferred income tax liabilities and assets based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
We account for excise tax credits relating to premises and equipment under the flow-through method, recognizing the benefit in the year the asset is placed in service. The excise tax credits related to leased equipment, except for excise tax credits that are passed on to lessees, are recognized during the periods in which the net investment is positive.
We file a consolidated Federal income tax return. Amounts equal to income tax benefits of those subsidiaries having taxable losses or credits are reimbursed by other subsidiaries which would have incurred current income tax liabilities. We follow a similar arrangement for state taxes where we file consolidated or combined income tax returns. Separate state tax liabilities are borne by the entities filing in those states.

Stock-Based Compensation
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, (FAS) No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure requirements to include prominent disclosure in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
As allowed under the provisions of FAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,the Company has chosen to recognize compensation expense using the intrinsic value-based method of valuing stock options prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employeesand related interpretations. Under the intrinsic value-based method, compensation cost is measured as the amount by which the quoted market price at the date of grant exceeds the stock option exercise price.
On January 1, 2006 the Company began expensing the fair value of stock options as required under Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised 2004)Accounting for Share-Based Payment(FAS 123R). As allowed by FAS 123R, the Company will use the modified prospective application to record expense over the remaining required service period for the portion of the existing stock options for which the required service had not been rendered as of December 31, 2005. This expense will be based on the grant date fair value of the awards as disclosed below, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Compensation expense for future awards of stock based compensation will be computed and recorded using the provisions of FAS 123R.
Certain members of BancWest’s senior management team received stock option awards from BNPP for shares of BNPP stock. The stock options were awarded on March 25, 2005, March 24, 2004 and March 21, 2003. The options do not vest until after the

Discounted Share Purchase Plan
The 2002 Discounted Share Purchase Plan (“2002 DSPP”) provided to U.S. resident employees of BNP Paribas, including employees of the Company, an opportunity to acquire shares in BNP Paribas. The purpose of the plan is to provide an increased incentive for these employees to contribute to the future success
BancWest Corporation and prosperity of BNP Paribas. Eligible U.S. employees were those who were employed on March 6, 2002 and remained employed until at least June 3, 2002. Participants were allowed to purchase shares, up to specified limits, at a discount of 20% of the market value on February 28, 2002. In addition, the participants were granted shares, based on the number they purchased, paid for by the Company. The shares under the DSPP plan must be held by the participants for a minimum of five years or until employment is terminated. In June 2002, a total of 124,763 shares were purchased by the Company’s employees, and an additional 30,490 shares were granted to these participants. The fair value of each share on the issue date was $51.81. The Company recognized a related compensation and benefits expense of $4.4 million in 2002.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Derivatives are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. On the date the Company enters into a derivative contract, the Company designates the derivative instrument as (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (“fair value” hedge), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (“cash flow” hedge) or (3) held for trading, customer accommodation or not qualifying for hedge accounting (“free-standing derivative instruments”). For a fair value hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument and changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability or of
anthe unrecognized firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk are recorded in current period income. For a cash flow hedge,
to the extent that the hedge is considered effective, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument
to the extent that it is effective are recorded in other comprehensive income within stockholder’s equity and subsequently reclassified to net income in the same period(s)
that the hedged transaction impacts net incomeand in the same financial statement category as the hedged item. For freestanding derivative instruments, changes in the fair values are reported in current period income. The Company formally documents the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivative instruments that are designated as hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet
or to an unrecognized firm commitment or a forecasted transaction. The Company also formally assesses, both at the inception of the hedge and on
an ongoinga quarterly basis, whether the derivative instruments used are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values of
or cash flows related to hedged items. Any portion of the
changeschange in fair value of
derivativesa derivative designated as a hedge that is deemed ineffective is recorded in current period earnings; this amount was not material in
2005, 2004
2003 or
2002.2003.
The Company occasionally purchases or originates financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative instrument. At the inception of the financial instrument, the Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative instrument are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the financial instrument (host contract), whether the financial instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is currently measured at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in earnings, and whether a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded instrument would meet the definition of a derivative instrument. If the embedded derivative instrument is determined not to be clearly and closely related to the host contract, is not currently measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings, and the embedded derivative instrument would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative instrument is separated from the host contract and carried at fair value with changes recorded in current period earnings.

United California Bank Acquisition
On March 15, 2002, BancWest completed its acquisition of all outstanding common stock of United California Bank (“UCB”) from UFJ Bank Ltd. of Japan. UCB was subsequently merged with and into Bank of the West in April 2002 and its branches were integrated into Bank of the West’s branch network system in the third quarter of 2002. On the date of acquisition by BancWest, UCB had 115 branches (located exclusively in California), total assets of $10.1 billion, net loans of $8.5 billion and total deposits of $8.2 billion. The preceding amounts do not include purchase accounting adjustments. Results of operations of UCB are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on March 15, 2002. The purchase price of approximately $2.4 billion was paid in cash and accounted for as a purchase. BNP Paribas funded BancWest’s acquisition of UCB by providing $1.6 billion of additional capital and lending it $800 million.
BancWest incurred expenses associated with exiting certain branches, operational centers and technology platforms, as well as other conversion and restructuring expense of $18 million. In conjunction with the acquisition, approximately 750 employees throughout the combined organization have been displaced. Exit costs associated with UCB were considered as part of the purchase accounting for the acquisition and we established a severance reserve of $40.5 million. In addition to the severance reserve, we recorded the following accruals: $34.5 million for losses on subleases, $8.0 million for contract cancellations and $1.3 million for relocation and other. Since the date of acquisition, we made the following adjustments to the reserves: $6.9 million increase for severance, $7.5 million decrease for losses on subleases, $4.9 million increase for contract cancellations and $0.2 million decrease for relocation. As of December 31, 2004, these initiatives are complete except for the remaining accrual for sublease losses of $8.7 million, which is being amortized over the lease period.

In conjunction with the purchase of UCB from UFJ, there were certain items that were in dispute. The disputed items were related to UCB’s loan charge-offs and its deferred tax liability. In March 2003, an arbitrator decided in favor of BancWest on both matters. Interest on the disputed amounts totaled $0.8 million, which was recognized in other income during the first quarter of 2003. The resolution of the loan charge-off issue was a receivable due from UFJ of $8.9 million, an increase to our allowance for loan and lease losses of $13.6 million, representing recoveries of loans charged off by BancWest, and a related decrease to our deferred tax liability of $4.7 million. Upon resolution of the deferred tax issue during the first quarter of 2003, we reassessed the adequacy of UCB’s deferred tax liability and reduced the related goodwill by $14.9 million. All cash due from UFJ as a result of the arbitrator’s decision was received in April 2003.

In March 2002, BancWest borrowed $800 million from BNP Paribas under an interim financing arrangement as part of the United California Bank acquisition. In November 2002, the CorporationBancWest sold BNP Paribas 485,413 shares of the outstanding common stock of Bank of the West for $800 million, and used the proceeds to repay the interim debt. The CorporationBancWest and BNP Paribas also entered into a Stockholder’s Agreement that included put and call options. The call option gives BancWest the right on specified dates or events to repurchase all or a portion of the Bank of the West stock sold to BNP Paribas at a price equal (in the case of a purchase of all such shares) to $800 million, plus 4.39% per annum, less the aggregate amount of distributions paid on such shares to BNP Paribas (together with interest paid on such amounts at 4.39% per annum, compounded quarterly), plus $5.0 million. If BancWest does not exercise its call option by December 2011, or within 90 days after certain specified events or agreements, BNP Paribas can require the CorporationBancWest to repurchase the Bank of the West shares at a price equal to (in case of a purchase of all such shares) $800 million, plus 4.39% per annum, less the aggregate amount of distributions paid on such shares to BNP Paribas (together with interest on such amounts at 4.39% per annum, compounded quarterly), plus $50 million. Due to the put and call arrangement, the $800 million repurchase agreement is considered a redeemable security and accordingly classified as debt. The Stockholder’s Agreement contains provisions for pro rata allocation of the formula described above in the event the call option is exercised for less than the full amount of the Bank of the West stock. The specified events referred to above include potential changes in ownership of Bank of the West as well as legislative, regulatory or other related changes that could affect the transactions referred to above. The Stockholder’s Agreement also limits the transferability of the Bank of the West shares. No value has been attributed to the call or put options in the Company’s financial statements and the Company does not expect to attribute a value to these options during the term of the Stockholder’s Agreement.
In November 2004, BancWest borrowed $590 million from BNP Paribas under an interim financing arrangement as part of the Community First and USDB acquisitions. In April 2005, BancWest sold BNP Paribas 254,132 shares of the outstanding common stock of Bank of the West for $590 million, and used the proceeds to repay the interim debt. BancWest and BNP Paribas also entered into an Amended and Restated Stockholder’s Agreement that included put and call options. The call option gives BancWest the right on specified dates or events to repurchase all or a portion of the Bank of the West stock sold to BNP Paribas at a price equal (in the case of a purchase of all such shares) to $590 million, plus 4.95% per annum, less the aggregate amount of distributions paid on such shares to BNP Paribas (together with interest paid on such amounts at 4.95% per annum, compounded quarterly), plus $5.0 million. If

BancWest does not exercise its call option by May 2014, or within 90 days after certain specified events or agreements, BNP Paribas can require BancWest to repurchase the Bank of the West shares at a price equal to (in case of a purchase of all such shares) $590 million, plus 4.95% per annum, less the aggregate amount of distributions paid on such shares to BNP Paribas (together with interest on such amounts at 4.95% per annum, compounded quarterly), plus $50 million.

At December 31,
2004,2005, BancWest’s obligation to BNP Paribas under the
Amended and Restated Stockholder’s Agreement (assuming the Call
OptionOptions could have been exercised as of that date) would be calculated as
$806.2$1,402.1 million. This obligation represents the original amount of
$800$1,390.0 million
($800.0 million and $590.0 million), accrued interest of
$1.2$2.1 million, plus the
$5.0$10.0 million Call Option
premium.premiums. At
2003,December 31, 2004, the obligation was
$836.7$806.2 million, which included the original amount of
$800$800.0 million, accrued interest of
$31.7$1.2 million and the $5.0 million Call Option premium. The average balance of the obligation to BNP Paribas under the
AgreementAgreements using the same calculation was
$850.8$1,416.2 million and
$820.8$850.8 million for the years ended December 31,
2005 and 2004,
and 2003, respectively.
BNP Paribas received a tax opinion that this cross-border transaction should be treated for U.S. Federal tax purposes as a loan from BNP Paribas to the Company secured by the Bank of the West shares. Accordingly, the Company recognizes a U.S. tax benefit for the current deduction for interest paid under the terms of the Stockholder’s Agreement.
At December 31, 2004, we carried a $150 million interest rate swap with BNP
Paribas.Paribas, which was terminated on June 20, 2005. See Note 3 for additional information.

5. Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) On June 23, 1997 and October 20, 2000, the Company formed two trusts, First Hawaiian Capital I (FH Trust) and BancWest Capital I (BWE Trust) (the Trusts), respectively. The Trusts issued preferred and common capital securities. The purpose of these entities
iswas to allow for the issuance of preferred capital securities that qualify for inclusion in Tier 1 regulatory capital. Historically, the Trusts were consolidated and the related trust preferred securities have been treated as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve rules and regulations. The Company deconsolidated the Trusts as a result of the adoption of FIN 46 in the preparation of its financial statements in October 2003. This deconsolidation had no material impact on the total assets or liabilities of BancWest. On March 1, 2005 the Federal Reserve Board issued final rules that will allow trust preferred securities to continue to be treated as Tier 1 capital, but in reduced amounts. After a five year transition period, the quantitative limitations for the amount of trust preferred securities that may be included in Tier 1 capital for domestic bank holding companies will be reduced to 25% of core capital elements, net of goodwill less any associated deferred tax liability. In addition, during the last five years before maturity, trust preferred securities will be treated as Tier 2 capital and require the same phase-out of capital credit as limited-life preferred stock.
On December 1, 2005, BWE Trust
iscompleted the redemption of the 6,000,000 outstanding 9.5% BancWest Capital I Quarterly Income Preferred Securities (QUIPS) at a price of $25 per QUIPS plus accrued and unpaid distributions. BWE Trust was a Delaware

2030, but on or after December 1, 2005 are subject to redemption in whole or in part at par plus accrued interest.

The Company has identified investments that meet the definition of a VIE under FIN 46 but do not meet the requirements for consolidation. The Company owns several limited partnership interests in low-income housing developments in conjunction with the Community Reinvestment Act. Limited partners do not participate in the control of the partnerships’ businesses. The general partner exercises the day-to-day control and management of the projects. The general partners have exclusive control over the partnerships’ businesses and have all of the rights, powers, and authority generally conferred by law or necessary, advisable or consistent with
59

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
accomplishing the partnerships’ businesses. FIN 46 indicates that if an entity (e.g., limited partner) cannot sell, transfer, or encumber its interests in the VIE without the prior approval of an enterprise (e.g., general partner), the limited partner is deemed to be a de facto agent for the general partner. BancWest is considered to be a de facto agent for the general partner where BancWest has a limited partnership interest over 50%. BancWest is not the primary beneficiary for these partnerships or for those where its interest is less

BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
than 50%. The business purpose of these entities is to provide affordable housing within the Company’s service area in return for tax credits and tax loss deductions. At December 31,
20042005 our subscription amount for these investments is approximately
$112.0$171.2 million with approximately
$37.5$54.9 million as the residual contribution outstanding. We are not obligated to fund deficiencies of the limited partnerships and our maximum exposure to losses is limited to our subscription amount. Bargain purchase options are available for the general partners to purchase the Company’s
portion of interests in the limited partnerships. These commitments were entered into from 1991 through
2004.2005.
The Company is also a general partner in numerous limited real estate partnerships acquired as a result of the Commercial Federal acquisition. The Corporation also holds limited partner interests in certain of these limited partnerships. The consolidation of these limited partnerships is not required under the provisions of FIN 46. In the highly unlikely event that all of the assets of these limited partnerships had no value and all other partners failed to meet their obligations, management of the Corporation estimates that its maximum potential exposure to loss would be approximately $30 million. This amount represents the total liabilities of the limited partnerships for which the Corporation is a general partner plus the net carrying value of the Corporation’s investments in these entities at December 31, 2005. The Company and the Federal Reserve entered into an agreement whereby the Company would divest these investments by December 2007.

The following table presents the unrealized gross losses and fair values of securities in the securities available for sale portfolio by length of time that individual securities in each category have been in a continuous loss position. Because the declines in fair value were a result of changes in market interest rates and the Company has both the ability and the intent to hold the securities until maturity or the fair value at least equals the recorded cost, no other-than-temporary impairment was recorded on debt securities. However, from time to time, the Company may sell securities at December 31, 2004.

The loan and lease portfolio is principally located in California, Hawaii and other states in the Western United States. We also lend to a lesser extent nationally and in Guam and Saipan. The risk inherent in the portfolio depends upon both the economic stability of those regions, which affects property values, and the financial well being and creditworthiness of the borrowers.
Outstanding loan balances at December 31,
20042005 and
20032004 are net of unearned income, including net deferred loan fees, of
$296.3 million and $283.0 million,
and $386.4 million, respectively.
Our leasing activities consist primarily of leasing automobiles, commercial equipment and leveraged leases. Lessees are responsible for all maintenance, taxes and insurance on the leased property. The leases are reported net of unearned income of
$333.0$355.0 million and
$393.1$333.0 million at December 31,
2005 and 2004,

Changes in the loans to such executive officers, directors and affiliates during 20042005 and 20032004 were as follows:

In the course of evaluating the credit risk presented by a customer and the pricing that will adequately compensate the Company for assuming that risk, management may require a certain amount of collateral support. The type of collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, land, buildings, equipment, income-producing commercial properties and residential real estate. The
CompanyBank has the same collateral policy for loans whether they are funded immediately or on a delayed basis (commitment).
A commitment to extend credit is a legally binding agreement to lend funds to a customer usually at a stated interest rate and for a specified purpose. Such commitments have fixed expiration dates and generally require a fee. The extension of a commitment gives rise to credit risk. The actual liquidity requirements or credit risk that the Company will experience will be lower than the contractual amount of commitments to extend credit because a significant portion of those commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Certain commitments are subject to loan agreements containing covenants regarding the financial performance of the customer that must be met before the Company is required to fund the commitment. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as it does in making loans.
In addition, the Company manages the potential credit risk in commitments to extend credit by limiting the total amount of arrangements, both by individual customer and in the aggregate, by monitoring the size and maturity structure of these portfolios, and by applying the same credit standards maintained for all of its related credit activities. At December 31, 20042005 and 2003,2004, the Company did not have a concentration in any loan category or industry that exceeded 10% of total loans and unfunded commitments that areis not

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS already reflected in the table above. The loan and lease portfolio is principally located in California, Hawaii and other states in the Western United States. The risk inherent in the portfolio depends upon both the economic stability of those states, which affects property values, and the financial well being and creditworthiness of the borrowers.
Standby letters of credit totaled
$824.2$854.6 million and
$667.7$824.2 million at December 31,
20042005 and
2003,2004, respectively. Standby letters of credit are issued on behalf of customers in connection with contracts between the customers and third parties. Under standby letters of credit, the Company assures that the third parties will receive specified funds if customers fail to meet their contractual obligations. The liquidity risk to the Company arises from its obligation to make payment in the event of a customer’s contractual default. Standby letters of credit are reported net of participations sold to other institutions. The Company also had commitments for commercial and similar letters of credit of
$77.0$70.3 million and
$84.3$77.0 million at December 31,
20042005 and
2003,2004, respectively. The commitments outstanding as of December 31,
20042005 have maturities ranging from January 1,
20052006 to November 15, 2017. Substantially all fees received from the issuance of such commitments are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the commitment.

Impaired loans without the related allowance for loan and lease losses are generally collateralized by assets with fair values in excess of the recorded investment in the loans. Payments on impaired loans are generally applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of such loans.
Total nonaccrual loans and leases were
$125.2$192.7 million and
$133.8$125.2 million for the years ended December 31,
20042005 and
2003,2004, respectively. Loans and leases that were 90 days or more past due, but still accruing were
$12.4$53.2 million and
$29.4$12.4 million for the same respective periods.
Prior to February 2004 and after July 2004, leases of vehicles to customers were treated as finance leases, as they qualified for such treatment under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13,
Accounting for Leases. From February through July 2004, our automobile leases were treated as operating leases, as we did not obtain residual insurance on an individual lease basis.
Operating lease rental income for leased assets, primarily vehicles, is recognized on a straight-line basis. Related depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease taking into account the estimated residual value of the leased asset. On a periodic basis, leased assets are reviewed for impairment. Impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a leased asset exceeds its fair value and is not recoverable. The carrying amount of a leased asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the lease payments and the estimated residual value upon
the eventual disposition of the equipment. Vehicle lease receivables are written off when 120 days past due.

In most cases, leases for premises provide for periodic renegotiation of rents based upon a percentage of the appraised value of the leased property. The renegotiated annual rent is usually not less than the annual amount paid in the previous period. Where future commitments are subject to appraisals, the minimum annual rental commitments are based on the latest annual rents.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 16. Regulatory Capital Requirements The Company’s
Because we are a financial holding company, only our depository institution subsidiaries are subject to
various regulatory capital requirements administered by
Federalthe federal banking agencies. If
theythese subsidiaries fail to meet minimum capital requirements,
thesethe federal agencies can initiate certain mandatory actions. Such regulatory actions could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company’s depository institution subsidiaries must each meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. These 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 Company’s depository institution subsidiaries to maintain minimum amounts and ratiosadequate levels of Tier 1 and Total capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. The table below sets forth thosethe capital ratios at December 31, 20042005 and 2003.2004.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, each of the depository institution subsidiaries
havehas been notified by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) that each of them is deemed to be well-capitalized. To be well-capitalized, a bank must have a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.00% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.00% or greater, a leverage ratio of 5.00% or greater and not be subject to any agreement, order or directive to meet a specific capital level for any capital measure. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since the respective notifications to change the capital category of either of its depository institution subsidiaries.
17. Limitations on Payment of Dividends The primary sources of funds that we may use to pay dividends to BNP Paribas are dividends the Parent receives from its subsidiaries. Regulations limit the amount of dividends Bank of the West and First Hawaiian Bank may declare or pay. At December 31,
2004,2005, the aggregate amount available for payment of dividends by such subsidiaries without prior regulatory approval was
$823.2$931.5 million.
18. Benefit PlansPension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan, which is a merger of two separate plans. The first plan, for First Hawaiian employees, was frozen at December 31, 1995. As a result of that freeze, there are no further benefit accruals for First Hawaiian employees in the merged plan. The second plan, for Bank of the West employees, was a cash balance pension plan. The merged employee retirement plan (“ERP”) continues to provide cash balance benefit accruals for eligible Bank of the West employees.
The Company also sponsors an unfunded excess benefit pension plan covering employees whose pay or benefits exceed certain regulatory limits, unfunded postretirement medical and life insurance plans, and, for certain key executives, an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”).
In connection with the
2002 acquisition of United California Bank (“UCB”), the Company assumed the pension and postretirement obligations of UCB. UCB employees participated in a noncontributory final pay defined benefit pension plan, an unfunded excess benefit pension plan covering employees whose pay or benefits exceed certain regulatory limits, an unfunded postretirement medical plan, and a 401(k) savings plan. In addition, certain key executives were eligible for a supplemental pension benefit if they met certain age and service conditions. The UCB plans were curtailed on June 30, 2003. The Company integrated UCB employees into the Company’s existing benefit plan structure on July 1, 2003. UCB employees were guaranteed the benefits they acquired through the UCB plans up to the curtailment date. The curtailment reduced the projected benefit obligation of the UCB retirement plan by $29.5 million measured as of July 1, 2003, which did not exceed the unrecognized net loss as of that date. The projected benefit obligation related to the UCB supplemental plan decreased by $2.9 million due to the curtailment. This exceeded the unrecognized loss in that plan resulting in a curtailment gain of $0.15 million during 2003. Special benefits were provided to UCB participants meeting certain age and service requirements; this is reflected as a termination benefit and is included in the pension liability. The special benefits were accounted for as an adjustment to goodwill as a purchase accounting adjustment due to the business combination of UCB with Bank of the West. The benefit obligations assumed by the Company in connection with the acquisition and the effect of the curtailment have been reflected in the
tabletables below.
BancWest also has a non-qualified pension plan (the
“Directors’“Outside Directors’ Retirement Plan”) that provides
a retirement benefit for eligible directors
to qualify for retirement benefits based on their years of service as a director.
The Company uses a December 31st measurement date for its pension and post retirement plans.
Accounting for defined benefit pension plans involves four key variables that are utilized in the calculation of the Company’s annual pension costs. These factors includeinclude: (1) size of the employee population and their estimated compensation increases, (2) actuarial assumptions and estimates, (3) expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and (4) the discount rate.
Pension expense is directly affected by the number of employees eligible for pension benefits and their estimated compensation increases. Management is able to estimate compensation increases by reviewing the Company’s salary increases each year and comparing these figures with industry averages. The Company uses a December 31st measurement date for its pension and post retirement plans.
In estimating the projected benefit obligation, actuaries base assumptions on factors such as the mortality rate, turnover rate, retirement rate, disability rate and other assumptions related to the population of individuals in the pension plan. TheIf significant
7484
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS actuarial gains or losses occur, the actuary reviews the demographic and economic assumptions with the Company, calculatesat which time the Company considers revising these assumptions based on actual circumstances.
The Company uses the building block method to calculate the expected return on plan assets each year based on the balance of the pension asset portfolio at the beginning of the year and the expected long-term rate of return on that portfolio in accordance with SFAS 87,Employers’ Accounting for Pensions. The long-termThis method evaluates (1) the percentage of total plan assets and their expected rate of return, on assets was based on(2) the compound average growthexpected total rate of return, and (3) the plan assets, excluding contributions, duringmanagement of the last fifteen years. Theportfolio. Under this approach, forward-looking expected returns for each invested asset class are determined. Forward-looking capital market assumptions are typically developed by using historical returns as a starting point and applying a combination of macroeconomics, econometrics, statistical, and other technical analysis, such as spread differentials, to forecast the expected return on plangoing forward.
No contributions to the pension trust for funded plans are expected to be made during 2006. However, should the accumulated benefit obligation of the funded plans exceed the fair value of assets
reflects asset allocations, investment strategy, historical returns andas of December 31, 2006, the
views of managers and other large pension plan sponsors with regardCompany expects to
future return expectations.make a contribution at least equal to the unfunded accumulated benefit obligation prior to December 31, 2006. This amount, if any, cannot be estimated until near year end.

Unrecognized net gains or losses that exceed 5% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets as of the beginning of the year, are amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. Amortization of the unrecognized net gain or loss is included as a component of net pension cost. If amortization results in an amount less than the minimum amortization required under generally accepted accounting principles, the minimum required amount is recorded.

To select the discount rate, the Company reviews the yield on Moody’s A Corporate Bond Index adjusted to an annual discount rate basis. The Company then compares the yield to an internal rate of return of a hypothetical bond portfolio reflecting the yields on high quality corporate bonds. The Company then makes adjustments to reflect the expected duration of the cash flow requirements of the plan. The resulting selected rate is rounded to the nearest 25 basis points.

Equity securities in the BancWest and UCB plans did not include BancWest

The assets within the BancWest Employee Retirement Plan and the UCB Retirement Plan
(“the Plans”(the “Plans”) are managed in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (ERISA).1974. The objective of the Plans is to achieve, over full market cycles, a compounded annual rate of return equal to or greater than the Plans’ expected long-term rates of return. The Plans’ committees recognize that capital markets can be unpredictable and that any investment could result in periods where the market value of the Plans’ assets will decline in value.
The assetAsset allocation is likely to be the primary determinant of the Plans’
returnreturns and the associated volatility of returns for the Plans.
The Plans’ expectedWe estimate long-term rate of return
was estimatedfor 2006 to be
9.0% and 9.5% at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.8.5%.
The UCB Retirement Plan assets are managed with a focus on asset allocation. Management’s assessment of the plan’s long-term needs for liquidity and income drives the asset allocation parameters. Asset allocation is also used to manage and limit volatility and risk within the plan. Given the curtailment of the UCB Retirement Plan, a more risk averse management approach was approved by management effective in November of 2003, and will be employed by the plan’s investment advisor henceforth. The UCB Retirement Plan uses
proprietary mutual funds and
a collective investment fund to investinvests in the equity and debt markets. The equity funds provide broad market exposure to both large and small cap, domestic and international stocks, while the debt fund provides exposure to the investment grade domestic bond market. The plan has not used derivative instruments in the past, and has no plans to utilize them in the future.

Our reportable segments are the operating segments that we use in our internal reporting at Bank of the West and First Hawaiian Bank. Bank of the West’s segments operate primarily in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa,
Kansas, Minnesota,
Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota,
Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming. As discussed below, certain Bank of the West segments conduct business nationwide. Although First Hawaiian Bank’s segments operate primarily in Hawaii, it also has significant operations outside the state, such as leveraged leases
international banking and branches in Guam and Saipan.
The results of each segment are determined by our management accounting process, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each reporting segment. The net interest income of each segment includes the results of the respective bank’s transfer pricing process, which assesses an internal funds charge on all segment assets and a funds credit on all segment liabilities. The internal charges and credits assigned to each asset and liability are intended to match the maturity, repayment and interest rate characteristics of that asset or liability. With the exception of goodwill, assets are allocated to each business segment on the basis of assumed benefit to their business operations. Goodwill is assigned on the basis of projected future earnings of the segments. The process of management accounting is dynamic and subjective. There is no comprehensive or authoritative guidance which can be followed. Changes in management structure and/or the allocation process may result in changes in allocations and transfers. In that case, amounts for prior periods would be reclassified for comparability. Amounts for
20032004 and
20022003 have been reclassified to reflect changes in the transfer pricing methodology and noninterest income and expense allocation methodology applied in
2004.2005.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In the course of normal business, the Company is subject to numerous pending and threatened lawsuits, some of which seek substantial
reliefdamages or
damages.other relief. While the Company is not able to predict whether the outcome of such actions will materially affect our results of operation for a particular period, based upon consultation with counsel, management does not expect that the aggregate liability, if any, resulting from these proceedings would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
22. Fair Value of Financial Instruments SFAS 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires that we disclose estimated fair values for certain financial instruments. Financial instruments include such items as loans, deposits, securities, interest rate and foreign exchange contracts, swaps and other instruments as defined by the standard.
Disclosure of fair values is not required for certain items such as lease financing, investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, obligations for pension and other postretirement benefits, premises and equipment, other real estate owned, prepaid expenses, core deposit
intangibles and other
intangibles, customer relationships
other intangible assets and income tax assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not purport to represent, and should not be considered representative of, the underlying “market” or franchise value of the Company.
Because the standard permits many alternative calculation techniques and because numerous assumptions have been used to estimate our fair values, reasonable comparisons of our fair value information with that of other financial institutions cannot necessarily be made.
We use the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments:
Short-term Financial Assets:Short-term financial assets include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements and
due from customers on acceptances. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the relatively short time between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization.
Trading Assets:Trading assets are carried at fair value. Fair values of trading assets are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.
Securities:Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. See Note 6 for information related to fair value.
Loans:Fair values are estimated for portfolios of performing loans with similar characteristics. We use discounted cash flow analyses, which utilize interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality, to estimate the fair values of: (1) commercial and industrial loans; (2) financial institution loans; (3) agricultural loans; (4) certain mortgage loans (e.g., 1 - 4 family residential, commercial real estate and rental property); and (5) consumer loans. For certain loans, we may estimate fair value based upon a loan’s observable market price. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value.
Deposits:The fair
valuevalues of deposits with no maturity date (e.g., interest and noninterest-bearing checking, regular savings, and certain types of money market savings accounts) are
according to GAAP, equal to the
amountamounts payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values of fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
Short-term borrowings:The fair values of short-term borrowings are estimated using quoted market prices or discounted cash flow analyses based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Long-term debt:The fair values of our long-term debt (other than deposits) are estimated using quoted market prices or discounted cash flow analyses based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
8797
BancWest Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Off-balance sheet and derivative financial instruments:Fair values are based upon: (1) quoted market prices of comparable instruments (e.g., options on mortgage-backed securities and commitments to buy or sell foreign currencies); (2) fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing (letters of credit and commitments to extend credit); or (3) pricing models based upon quoted markets, current levels of interest rates and specific cash flow schedules (e.g., interest rate swaps).
As discussed above, some of our financial instruments are short-term, and therefore, the carrying amounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate fair value. Other significant assets and liabilities, which are not considered financial assets or liabilities and for which fair values have not been estimated, include premises and equipment, goodwill and other intangibles, deferred taxes and other liabilities. This table is a summary of financial instruments, as defined by FAS 107, excluding leases, short-term financial assets and liabilities, for which carrying amounts approximate fair value, trading assets, which are carried at fair value, securities available for sale (Note 6) and derivatives (Note 3).

On January 1, 2005,Additional Award options. Mr. McGrath became Presidentreceived 17,500 Main Award options and Chief Executive Officer,7,500 Additional Award options. Mr. Horner received 5,600 Main Award options and 2,400 Additional Award options. Mr. Shepherd received 4,200 Main Award options and 1,800 Additional Award options. Mr. Denot and Mr. Dods became non-executive ChairmanBonetto each received 1,000 Main Award options. The options may be exercised by optionees only while they are employees or retired employees of the Board.BNP Paribas Group. Options become exercisable on March 25, 2009 (but Additional Awards may be cancelled as described below). Main Award options have an exercise price of 55.10 euros per share, which was the average opening price of BNP Paribas shares during the 20 days preceding March 25, 2005. The exercise price of Additional Award options (which in no case will be less than 55.10 euros per share) will be determined, or Additional Award options may be cancelled, based on performance of BNP Paribas shares compared to the Dow Jones Euro Stoxx Bank Index on the second, third and fourth anniversaries of March 25, 2005. On each measurement date, the performance of BNP Paribas shares over a specified period will be compared to the performance of the index, and the results will determine the exercise price of one-third of the Additional Awards. If performance of BNP Paribas shares as of the relevant measurement date equals or exceeds that of the index, the exercise price will be 55.10 euros per share for that third of the Additional Awards. If BNP Paribas shares have under performed the index, the exercise price will be 57.90 euros if the underperformance is less than 5 points; 60.60 euros if underperformance is at least 5 points but less than 10 points; and 66.10 euros if underperformance is at least 10 points but less than 20 points. If underperformance for the period is 20 points or more, that third of the Additional Award options will be cancelled. |

In April 2005, the Executive Compensation Committee replaced one of the corporate goals previously used for the Corporation’s Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). The committee found that the efficiency ratio previously used was no longer an appropriate LTIP performance measure due to the registrant’s strategy of growth by acquisition, and the fact that the committee does not want to discourage management from pursuing acquisitions of companies with higher efficiency ratios. The committee determined that an earnings growth rate was a more appropriate measure of progress towards the registrant’s strategic objectives. Accordingly, the committee adopted a 2005-2007 award matrix based on Return on Average Notional Equity (“RONE”) and the year-over-year Earnings Growth Rate (“EGR”).
RONE is a fraction expressed as a percentage. The numerator is: (1) registrant’s annual reported earnings before income taxes, (2) less amortization of intangible assets, restructuring, integration and nonrecurring items, (3) plus an earnings credit — or minus an earnings charge — to the extent actual tangible equity exceeds or falls short of notional equity. The denominator is notional equity, which equals 6% of the registrant’s consolidated risk-weighted assets, as defined by the FDIC in computing capital compliance. EGR is also a fraction expressed as a percentage. The numerator is: (1) net income after income taxes for the current year, as reported in audited financial statements and as adjusted for extraordinary items, (2) less net income (as adjusted) for the prior year. The denominator is net income (as adjusted) for the prior year.
The committee established target awards for the 2004-20062005-2007 LTIP performance cycle that ranged from 10% to 50% of participants’ average annual base salaries,salaries. The 2005-2007 target percentages for the named executive officers were Mr. McGrath: 50%; Mr. Horner: 40%; Mr. Denot: 30%; Mr. Bonetto: 30%; and adopted an award matrix based on two measuresMr. Shepherd: 27.5%. At the end of corporate performance – Return on Average Notional Equity (“RONE”) and an Efficiency Ratio (“ER”). Targetthe LTIP cycle, actual awards will be multiplieddetermined by multiplying each LTIP participant’s target award by a corporate performance factor of 0% to 200%. The corporate performance factor will be established after the three-year performance period is complete by applying the Corporation’sregistrant’s average annual RONE and ERannual EGR to an array of percentages shown on anthe award matrix. One axis of that matrix sets forth RONE values ranging from 42.1%41.0% to 50.1%49.0%, and the other axis sets forth EREGR percentages of 55.5%12.0% to 45.5%15.0%. The 2005-2007 matrix provides a corporate performance factor of 0% if RONE is less than 42.1%41.0% or the EREGR is greaterless than 55.5%12.0%; a 100% corporate performance factor if (among other combinations) RONE is 46.1%45.0% and the EREGR is 50.5%13.25%; and the maximum corporate performance factor of 200% if RONE reachesis at least 50.1%49.0% and EGR is at least 15.0%.
In April 2005, the committee also revised award matrices previously adopted for the 2004-2006 and 2003-2005 cycles, in order to replace parameters based on efficiency ratios with those based on EGR. One axis of the revised award matrix for the 2004-2006 LTIP cycle sets forth RONE values ranging from 41.0% to 49.0%. The other axis sets forth EGR percentages of 11.5% to 15.5%. The revised 2004-2006 matrix provides a corporate performance factor of 0% if RONE is less than 41.0% or EGR is less than 11.5%; a 100% corporate performance factor if (among other combinations) RONE is 45.7% and EGR is 13.5%; and the
ERmaximum corporate performance factor of 200% if RONE is
45.5% or better.at least 49.0% and EGR is at least 15.5%. The committee included Mr. Shepherd in the 2004-2006 and 2003-2005 LTIP cycles at a 27.5% target percentage on a retroactive basis.
In accordance with SEC rules, the following table shows threshold, target and maximum awards levels of the named executive officers for the

Executive Life Insurance Plan
The Corporation provides pre-and post-retirement life insurance benefits for approximately 26 executives under the Executive Life Insurance Plan (the “ELIP”), which is an exhibit incorporated herein by reference. The named executive officers who currently participate in the ELIP, which replaced the Corporation’s prior split dollar life insurance program, are
Mr.Messrs. McGrath and
Mr. Grigsby.Bonetto. Death benefits under the ELIP are equal to three times current salary while actively employed. Following a “qualified termination,” the Corporation will continue to provide death benefits to ELIP
participantsparticipant’s equal to three times final salary until their “policy distribution date.” On the policy distribution date, the Corporation will transfer to the participant ownership of a company-owed life insurance policy with sufficient cash value, based on reasonable actuarial assumptions, to provide a death benefit equal to three times final salary until the policy maturity date. At the date the policy is transferred to the participant, the Corporation will also pay a cash bonus sufficient to cover the executive’s estimated income taxes due as a result of transfer of the policy.
A qualified termination includes termination of employment after attaining age 65, termination of employment after attaining age 55 with at least ten years of credited service,
or termination of those executives entitled to the enhanced SERP benefit described in the following
section, or a discretionary determination by the Executive Compensation Committee to treat a termination that does not otherwise qualify as a qualified termination.section. Mr. McGrath (age
56)57) and Mr.
GrigsbyBonetto (age
52)55) have each satisfied the requirements for a “qualified termination.”
TheTheir policy distribution
date isdates will be the latest to occur of termination of
the participant’s employment, attaining age 65, and completion of seven annual premium payments.
However, the Executive Compensation Committee has discretion to authorize distribution of a policy to a participant following termination of service and completion of seven premium payments, but prior to attaining age 65.Defined Benefit Pension and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans The Corporation sponsors an Employees’ Retirement Plan (the “ERP”) for employees of the Corporation and participating subsidiaries, which resulted from the merger of two separate plans. The ERP includes a cash balance plan for eligible Bank of the West employees, under which benefits continue to accrue, and a “frozen” defined benefit plan for certain employees of First Hawaiian, Inc. (“FHI”).
Bank of the West’s cash balance plan (previously part of the BNP U.S. Retirement Plan) was merged into the ERP effective January 1, 1999. It provides a benefit at retirement equal to the value of the participant’s cash balance account. The cash balance account consists of: accrued benefits transferred as of January 1, 1999; 5% of base earnings (up to an inflation-adjusted earnings limit established by Internal Revenue Service rules) while a participant for each year following 1998; and interest on the foregoing amounts credited quarterly at an annual rate calculated by reference to
5-yearfive-year Treasuries. Benefits vest after five years of service, but may not be paid out before age 55. The named executive officers who currently participate in the cash balance plan are
Mr.Messrs. McGrath,
Bonetto and
Mr. Grigsby.Shepherd. Based on
2%2.5% inflation, a 3.25% interest-crediting rate and
5.75%5% conversion factors, the Corporation currently estimates that the annual benefit payable from
thisthe cash balance plan to
Mr.Messrs. McGrath,
Bonetto and
Mr. GrigsbyShepherd at normal retirement age
(age 65) will be
$54,500$65,561, $31,901, and
$63,000,$22,312 respectively.
The
Bank of the West also maintains a non-qualified excess plan that provides benefits using the same formulas as the cash balance plan for salary levels that exceed the qualified plan earnings limit. Excess plan participants receive annual credits equal to 5% of the amount by which their salaries exceed the qualified plan earnings limit, as of January 1. Mr. Shepherd, the only named executive officer who participates in the excess plan, is not yet vested in the plan, but would have an estimated annual benefit payment at normal retirement age (age 65) of $42,189. This estimate is based on the same inflation, interest-crediting rate and conversion factors as the cash balance plan estimate.
Mr. Horner participated in a FHI defined benefit plan that was “frozen” as of December 31, 1995 and none of the named executive officers1995. No benefits accrued such benefits under that plan for service after December 31, 1995. Under the frozen FHI plan, covered compensation includes salary, including overtime, but
111
excludes bonuses. Pension compensation is also limited to the maximum allowable under the Internal Revenue Code. Retirement benefits become payable effective upon an employee’s retirement at the normal retirement age of 65 years. Normal retirement benefits are based on average compensation and years of credited service as of December 31, 1995. Mr.
Dods and Mr. Horner haveHorner’s frozen accrued
benefitsbenefit payable at normal retirement
of $94,791 and $42,713, respectively.age is $42,713. Under specified circumstances, an employee who has attained a certain age and length of service may retire early with reduced benefits.
The Corporation’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP,” discussed below) includes grandfathered pension provisions under which
eligible officers (including Mr.
Dods and Mr. Horner)Horner will receive benefits based on the formula used in the frozen FHI defined benefit plan. In determining grandfathered pension benefits under the SERP, the participant’s covered compensation includes base pay, commissions, overtime, short-term incentive pay, and the annual cash bonus earned under the IPKE. A participant’s covered compensation does not include any LTIP bonus. The grandfathered pension benefit payable under the SERP is reduced by the participant’s “frozen” accrued benefit under the old FHI plan.

The following table illustrates the estimated annual pension benefits payable under the grandfathered pension portion of the SERP to eligible executive officers at age 65 (including the value of the frozen FHI benefit). Mr. Horner is the only executive officer of the Corporation eligible for the grandfathered benefits illustrated by the table. Whether these amounts become payable depends on the contingencies and conditions set forth in the ERP and the SERP.

Notes to Defined Benefit Pension Plans Table:
| | |
Note (1) | | Note (1) Final average compensation represents the average annual compensation during the highest 60 consecutive calendar months in the last 120 calendar months of creditable service. Compensation for the purpose of this table includes base salary plus the value of awards under the IPKE as shown on the Summary Compensation Table (but not bonuses under the LTIP). The amount of the IPKE bonus included in compensation for any year for purposes of the SERP is the amount earned for the performance year, though not paid until the following year. The estimated annual benefits are computed on the basis of a straight-life annuity form of payment with no social security offset. |
| | |
Note (2) | | As of December 31, 2004, the number of years of credited service for the named executive officers who participate in the grandfathered pension portion of the SERP were: Mr. Dods, 36 years; and Mr. Horner, 26 years. |
Note (2) As of December 31, 2005, Mr. Horner had 27 years of credited service in the grandfathered pension portion of the SERP.
Approximately 90 actively employed senior executives participate in the SERP. SERP participants receive (i) benefits calculated under the grandfathered SERP provisions, if applicable, and (ii) benefits derived from a target percentage of theireither 50% or 60% of qualifying compensation, but only to the extent thecompensation. The target benefit exceeds offsets for grandfathered SERP benefits, benefits under the ERP and various other employer provided benefits (including contributions to defined contribution plans andamount is offset by 50% of the age 65 Social Security benefit)benefit, and by amounts attributable to various other retirement benefits provided by the Corporation, such as the ERP, other qualified retirement plans, grandfathered SERP benefits, profit sharing accounts, 401(k) programs, the Future Plan (an additional defined contribution plan used primarily by First Hawaiian Bank) and the excess plan. Benefits are also reduced by formula if participants retire before reaching age 62 (for those with maximum targets of 60%) or age 65 (for those with maximum targets of 50%).
112
The named executive
officers’officers who participate in the SERP are Messrs. McGrath, Horner and Bonetto, each of whom has a maximum target percentage
isof 60% of qualifying compensation.
Subject to the 2002 amendmentAs discussed below, qualifying compensation for this purpose is
the average annual rate of compensation (salarygenerally salary plus annual
bonusesbonus under the
Incentive Plan for Key Executives)IPKE for the
60highest 12 consecutive calendar months out of the last
12060 calendar months of
employment that result in the highest such average.employment. To qualify for a 60% target, the named executive officers who participate in the SERP must retire on or after their 62
nd birthdays with 20 years of credited service. If they retire before age 62,
with the consent of the Executive Compensation Committee, their target retirement amounts (as defined by the SERP)
arewill be reduced,
in general, by 3% for each year by which benefit commencement precedes the participant’s 62
nd birthday.
That reduction factor will also apply to grandfathered SERP benefits paid to Mr. Horner if he retires before age 62. Messrs.
Dods, McGrath
and Horner
and Grigsby participate in the SERP, and each
of them has at least 20 years of credited
service. Mr. Bonetto has 16 years of credited service
in the SERP, which currently entitles him to a 48% target benefit percentage (before any adjustments for
SERP purposes.102
early retirement). If he retires at or after age 62, his target benefit percentage will be 60%.

PART III
The SERP was amended in 2002 to eliminate “involuntary termination” provisions and to provide certain enhanced SERP benefits to all persons who were SERP participants at the time BancwestBancWest was acquired by BNP Paribas. The affectedAffected SERP participants (including Messrs. Dods, McGrath, Horner and Grigsby)Bonetto) were granted three extraadditional years of credited service for purposes of computing their target benefits under the SERP. Their target benefit computations will also be based on the greater of covered compensation over the 12 months before termination, or the final average compensation otherwise provided in the SERP. In addition, their SERP benefits will begin at the later of the date of termination or age 55 (though an affected participant(although they may elect to delay receipt of SERP early retirement benefits to a date not beyond age 65), and their early retirement benefits will be calculated using provisionsthe formulas that applyapplied to those whose early retirement with consent ofwas approved by the Executive Compensation Committee.
The plan was further amended in 2005 so that target benefit computations for affected participants who retire after January 1, 2005 will be based on the highest 12 consecutive months of compensation (not to include more than one IPKE payment) during the last 60 calendar months of employment.
If the named executive officers who participate in the SERP had retired on March 1, 2006, their annual SERP benefits (before/after applicable reductions for early retirement) would have been: Mr. McGrath, $1,252,810/$1,169,088; Mr. Horner $561,700/$455,271; and Mr. Bonetto, $330,081/$295,095. These figures represent (i) target benefit amounts calculated using credited service and compensation paid through March 1, 2006 (including the 2005 IPKE awards shown in the summary compensation table), minus (ii) applicable offsets as of that date. The figures for Mr. Horner include both grandfathered and non-grandfathered SERP benefits.
SERP benefits payable to these officers will change in the future to reflect increases in salary and IPKE bonuses, and to reflect increases in certain benefits, summarized above, that are treated as offsets and therefore reduce SERP payments. In addition, Mr. Bonetto’s benefits will increase to reflect additional years of credited service until he reaches the 20-year maximum.
Mr. Denot participates in a 401(k) plan of the Corporation but not in any of its other pension plans or the SERP. He participates in pension plans of BNP Paribas.
Mr. Shepherd does not participate in the SERP. However he does participate in both the ERP and the excess plan. In connection with his hiring, Mr. Shepherd received additional benefits in the excess plan based on five years of credited service at his initial salary.
Change-in-Control Arrangements If there is a change in control of the Corporation, all LTIP awards that have been outstanding six or more months will automatically be deemed fully earned at the maximum target value and participants in the DCP will be entitled to an immediate lump sum distribution of certain amounts unless (as occurred when
BancWestthe Corporation was acquired by BNP Paribas) that plan is assumed by the surviving entity. In addition, the Corporation maintains a rabbi trust with a third-party trustee
forto protect the interests of participants in the SERP and
DCP at the
DCP and if an actual or potentialtime of any change in
control occurs,control. Due to the Corporation’s acquisition by BNP Paribas, the Corporation is
already required to
contribute sufficient fundsmake periodic contributions to the trust
sufficient to fund all
SERP and DCP benefits
that become payable to
participants.those who were participants in those plans at the time of the acquisition.
Mr. McGrath has had an employment agreement with the Corporation since 1998. His agreement, which was last amended in January 2005, has a perpetual term and entitles Mr. McGrath to at least his current base salary, which may be increased annually at BancWest’s discretion after review by the Board of Directors, but may not be decreased.
Mr. McGrath is entitled to receive a lump sum cash severance payment in the following circumstances, whether they occur following a change in control or otherwise:
| | • | | BancWest terminates Mr. McGrath’s employment other than for cause (as defined in the employment agreement) or due to disability, or |
| |
| | • | | Mr. McGrath quits for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement). |
This severance payment would be equal to three times the sum of:
| | (1) | | his then current base salary, and |
| |
| | (2) | | his average annual bonus, if any, based on the preceding three fiscal years. |
113
Mr. McGrath is also entitled to be grossed up, on an after-tax basis, for any excise taxes imposed under the Internal Revenue Code on any “excess parachute payment” that he receives in connection with benefits and payments provided to him in connection with any change in control, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, of BancWest.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management All voting securities of BancWest Corporation are beneficially owned by BNP Paribas, whose address is 16, boulevard des Italiens, 75009 Paris, France.

Beginning in 2003, the audit committee has required that fees for audit and nonaudit services provided to the Corporation by its independent auditor be preapproved by the committee. It has delegated to its chairman authority, between meetings of the committee, to preapprove expenditures that are within the categories of SEC-permitted services, provided the amounts so approved between any two meetings of the committee do not exceed $100,000 per item, or $250,000 in the aggregate, and provided all such approvals are presented to the committee at its next meeting. Since adoption of the committee’s preapproval requirements, the committee has not utilized provisions of applicable SEC rules that permit waiver of preapproval requirements for certain nonaudit services.
