FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Board of Directors Southwest Bancorporation of Texas, Inc.: We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Southwest Bancorporation of Texas, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 2000, the related condensed consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 and the condensed consolidated statement of changes in shareholders' equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in shareholders' equity, and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and, in our report dated February 11, 2000, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated financial statements from which it has been derived.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Southwest Bancorporation of Texas, Inc. (the "Company") and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Southwest Holding Delaware Inc. (the "Delaware Company"), Southwest Bank of Texas, National Association (the "Bank"), and Mitchell Mortgage Company, LLC ("Mitchell"). These financial statements give retroactive effect to the merger of Fort Bend Holding Corp., ("Fort Bend") on April 1, 1999 in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, consolidated income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 and the consolidated changes in shareholders' equity for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for a full-year period. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, as amended, was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board to establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency- denominated forecasted transaction. The accounting for the changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The standard is effective for all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW On April 1, 1999, Southwest Bancorporation of Texas, Inc. (the "Company") and Fort Bend Holding Corp. ("Fort Bend") completed their previously announced merger, which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The merger agreement provided for the exchange of 1.45 shares of the Company's Common Stock for each share of Fort Bend Common Stock, resulting in the issuance of approximately 4.6 million shares of Company Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. In connection with this merger, the Company incurred approximately $4.5 million in pretax merger-related expenses and other charges in the second quarter of 1999. The historical financial data has been restated to include the accounts and operations of Fort Bend for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Total assets at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were $2.98 billion and $2.85 billion, respectively. Gross loans were $2.03 billion at March 31, 2000, an increase of $120.4 million or 6% from $1.91 billion at December 31, 1999. This growth was a result of a strong local economy, and the Company's style of relationship banking. Shareholders' equity was $199.4 million and $195.0 million at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, net income was $8.8 million, ($0.30 per diluted share) compared to $6.7 million ($0.24 per diluted share) for the same period in 1999, an increase of 31%. Return on average assets and return on average common shareholders' equity for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was 1.22% and 18.21%, respectively. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTEREST INCOME Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $54.0 million, an increase of $11.0 million, or 26%, from the three months ended March 31, 1999. This increase is due to a $364.7 million increase in average earning assets to $2.65 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2000, a 16% increase from the same period last year. Interest income on loans increased $11.4 million to $42.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This was due to a $426.8 million increase in average loans outstanding during the same period. The average yield on loans was 8.86% for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of 48 basis points when compared to the same period in 1999. Interest income on securities decreased to $10.7 million, a $133,000 decrease from the three month period ended March 31, 1999. This decrease was attributable to a $27.4 million decrease in average securities outstanding, down 4% when compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense on deposits and other borrowings was $23.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared to $18.3 million for the same period in 1999. The increase in interest expense was attributable to a $276.7 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities for the three-month comparable periods. The average yield on interest bearing liabilities was 4.65% for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of 46 basis points when compared to the same period in 1999. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income was $30.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared with $24.7 million for the same period in 1999, an increase of 23%. The increase in net interest income during the three-months ended March 31, 2000 was largely due to growth in average loan balances. The net interest margin was 4.60% for the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared with 4.39% in the first quarter of 1999. This increase resulted from an increase in the yield on earning assets of 56 basis points from 7.65% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to 8.21% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This increase in the yield on earning assets was partially offset by an increase in the cost of 9 funds of 46 basis points, from 4.19% for the three months ended March 31, 1999, to 4.65% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The following table presents for the periods indicated the total dollar amount of interest income from average interest-earning assets and the resultant yields, as well as the interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and rates. No tax equivalent adjustments were made and all average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccruing loans have been included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

Although no assurance can be given, management believes that the present allowance for loan losses is adequate considering loss experience, delinquency trends and current economic conditions. Management regularly reviews the Company's loan loss allowance as its loan portfolio grows and diversifies. (See -- Financial Condition -- Loan Review and Allowance for Loan Losses.) NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $7.6 million, an increase of $926,000 or 14% for the same period in 1999. The following table presents for the periods indicated the composition of noninterest income. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, -------------------- 2000 1999 --------- --------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Service charges on deposit accounts........................... $ 3,270 $ 2,638 Investment services.................. 1,194 1,040 Factoring fee income................. 872 576 Loan fee income...................... 1,055 863 Bank-owned life insurance income..... 456 283 Letters of credit fee income......... 221 192 Gain on sale of securities, net...... 1 93 Other noninterest income............. 572 1,030 --------- --------- Total noninterest income........ $ 7,641 $ 6,715 ========= ========= The largest component of noninterest income, service charges on deposit accounts, was up $632,000, or 24% from the prior period. This resulted from an increase in the number of deposit accounts, which grew from 66,334 at March 31, 1999 to 83,146 at March 31, 2000. Factoring fee income was up $296,000 or 51%; investment services fee income up $154,000 or 15%, and loan fee income up $192,000 or 22%. Other 11 non-interest income was decreased by a reduction in fee income from arbitrage activities, which contributed $255,000 in fees in the first quarter of 1999 versus zero for the first quarter of 2000. Additionally, other non-interest income declined primarily from a decrease in the gain on sale of loans decreased $224,000. NONINTEREST EXPENSES For the three months ended March 31, 2000, noninterest expenses totaled $23.1 million, an increase of $3.6 million, or 18%, from $19.5 million during 1999. The increase in noninterest expenses was primarily due to salaries and employee benefits. The efficiency ratio improved to 60.81% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 62.19% for the comparable period in 1999. Salaries and employee benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $13.7 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 15%, from the three months ended March 31, 1999. This increase was due primarily to hiring of additional personnel required to accommodate the Company's growth. Total full-time employees were 962 and 849 at March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999, respectively. Occupancy expense increased $459,000, or 16%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Major categories within occupancy expense are building lease expense and maintenance contract expense. Building lease expense increased to $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $822,000 for the same period in 1999. This increase resulted from increasing the rentable square feet at the corporate office to accommodate the Company's growth. Maintenance contract expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $432,000, a 56% or $155,000 increase from $277,000 for the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to new maintenance contracts purchased during 1999. The Company purchases maintenance contracts for major operating systems throughout the organization. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense includes the regular federal income tax at the statutory rate, plus the income tax component of the Texas franchise tax. The amount of federal income tax expense is influenced by the amount of taxable income, the amount of tax-exempt income, the amount of nondeductible interest expense, and the amount of other nondeductible expenses. Taxable income for the income tax component of the Texas franchise tax is the federal pre-tax income, plus certain officers' salaries, less interest income from federal securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the provision for income taxes was $4.6 million, an increase of $878,000, or 23%, from the $3.7 million provided for in the same period in 1999. FINANCIAL CONDITION LOANS HELD FOR INVESTMENT Loans were $1.94 billion at March 31, 2000, an increase of $108 million or 6% from $1.84 billion at December 31, 1999. 12 The following table summarizes the loan portfolio of the Company by type of loan as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999: MARCH 31, 2000 DECEMBER 31, 1999 ---------------------- ---------------------- AMOUNT PERCENT AMOUNT PERCENT ------------ ------- ------------ ------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Commercial and industrial............... $ 750,472 38.59% $ 721,229 39.27% Real estate: Construction and land development........................ 568,081 29.21 494,755 26.94 1-4 family residential............. 264,398 13.60 268,349 14.61 Commercial owner occupied.......... 184,216 9.47 185,679 10.11 Farmland........................... 12,361 0.64 13,056 0.71 Other.............................. 28,850 1.48 20,447 1.10 Consumer................................ 136,277 7.01 133,295 7.26 ------------ ------- ------------ ------- Gross loans held for investment......... $ 1,944,655 100.00% $ 1,836,810 100.00% ============ ======= ============ ======= The primary lending focus of the Company is on small- and medium-sized commercial, construction and land development, residential mortgage and consumer loans. The Company offers a variety of commercial lending products including term loans, lines of credit and equipment financing. A broad range of short- to medium-term commercial loans, both collateralized and uncollateralized, are made available to businesses for working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion (including acquisitions of real estate and improvements) and the purchase of equipment and machinery. The purpose of a particular loan generally determines its structure. Generally, the Company's commercial loans are underwritten in the Company's primary market area on the basis of the borrower's ability to service such debt from cash flow. As a general practice, the Company takes as collateral a lien on any available real estate, equipment or other assets. Working capital loans are primarily collateralized by short-term assets whereas term loans are primarily collateralized by long-term assets. A substantial portion of the Company's real estate loans consists of loans collateralized by real estate and other assets of commercial customers. Additionally, a portion of the Company's lending activity consists of the origination of single-family residential mortgage loans collateralized by owner-occupied properties located in the Company's primary market area. The Company offers a variety of mortgage loan products which generally are amortized over five to 30 years. Loans collateralized by single-family residential real estate generally have been originated in amounts of no more than 90% of appraised value. The Company requires mortgage title insurance and hazard insurance in the amount of the loan. Although the contractual loan payment periods for single-family residential real estate loans are generally for a three to five year period, such loans often remain outstanding for significantly shorter periods than their contractual terms. The Bank originates and purchases residential and commercial mortgage loans to sell to investors with servicing rights retained. The Bank also provides residential and commercial construction financing to builders and developers and acts as a broker in the origination of multi-family and commercial real estate loans. Consumer loans made by the Company include automobile loans, recreational vehicle loans, boat loans, home improvement loans, personal loans (collateralized and uncollateralized) and deposit account collateralized loans. The terms of these loans typically range from 12 to 84 months and vary based upon the nature of collateral and size of loan. 13 The contractual maturity ranges of the commercial and industrial and real estate construction loan portfolio and the amount of such loans with fixed interest rates and floating rates in each maturity range as of March 31, 2000 are summarized in the following table: MARCH 31, 2000 --------------------------------------------------- AFTER ONE AFTER ONE YEAR THROUGH FIVE OR LESS FIVE YEARS YEARS TOTAL ---------- ----------- --------- ------------ (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Commercial and industrial............... $ 491,019 $ 232,529 $ 26,924 $ 750,472 Real estate construction and land development........................... 318,815 211,421 37,845 568,081 ---------- ----------- --------- ------------ Total.............................. $ 809,834 $ 443,950 $ 64,769 $ 1,318,553 ========== =========== ========= ============ Loans with a fixed interest rate........ $ 277,282 $ 118,983 $ 20,987 $ 417,252 Loans with a floating interest rate..... 532,552 324,967 43,782 901,301 ---------- ----------- --------- ------------ Total.............................. $ 809,834 $ 443,950 $ 64,769 $ 1,318,553 ========== =========== ========= ============ LOANS HELD FOR SALE Loans held for sale of $89.6 million at March 31, 2000 increased from $77.0 million at December 31, 1999. These loans are typically sold to investors within one month of origination. Approximately $42 million of these loans were previously recorded as loans held for investment and reclassified after the merger of Fort Bend. It is expected that these loans will ultimately be sold after restrictions have expired relating to pooling of interests merger. LOAN REVIEW AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES The Company's loan review procedures include a Credit Quality Assurance Process that begins with approval of lending policies and underwriting guidelines by the Board of Directors, an independent loan review department staffed with OCC experienced personnel, low individual lending limits for officers, Senior Loan Committee approval for large credit relationships and quality loan documentation procedures. The Company also maintains a well developed monitoring process for credit extensions in excess of $100,000. The Company performs monthly and quarterly concentration analyses based on various factors such as industries, collateral types, business lines, large credit sizes, international investments and officer portfolio loads. The Company has established underwriting guidelines to be followed by its officers. The Company also monitors its delinquency levels for any negative or adverse trends. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's loan portfolio will not become subject to increasing pressures from deteriorating borrower credit due to general economic conditions. Historically, the Houston metropolitan area has been affected by the state of the energy business, but since the mid 1980's the economic impact has been reduced by a combination of increased industry diversification and less reliance on debt to finance expansion. When energy prices fluctuate, it is the Company's practice to review and adjust underwriting standards with respect to companies affected by oil and gas price volatility, and to continuously monitor existing credit exposure to companies which are impacted by this price volatility. The allowance for loan losses is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. Based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a quarterly review of the allowance for loan losses to the Board of Directors, indicating any changes in the allowance since the last review and any recommendations as to adjustments in the allowance. In making its evaluation, management considers growth in the loan portfolio, the diversification by industry of the Company's commercial loan portfolio, the effect of changes in the local real estate market on collateral values, the results of recent regulatory examinations, the effects on the loan portfolio of current economic indicators and their probable impact on borrowers, the amount of charge-offs for the period, the amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral security and the evaluation of its loan portfolio by the loan review function. Charge-offs occur when loans are deemed to be uncollectible. 14 In order to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management considers the risk classification or delinquency status of loans and other factors, such as collateral value, portfolio composition, trends in economic conditions and the financial strength of borrowers. Management establishes specific allowances for loans which management believes require reserves greater than those allocated according to their classification or delinquent status. The allocated component of the allowance is supplemented by an unallocated component. The unallocated portion of the allowance includes management's judgmental determination of the amounts necessary for subjective factors such as economic uncertainties and concentration risks. The Company then charges to operations a provision for loan losses determined on an annualized basis to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level determined according to the foregoing methodology. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2000 is adequate to cover losses inherent in the portfolio as of such date. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not sustain losses in future periods, which could be greater than the size of the allowance at March 31, 2000. The following table presents, for the periods indicated, an analysis of the allowance for loan losses and other related data: THREE MONTHS ENDED YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, 2000 1999 --------------- ------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Allowance for loan losses, beginning balance.............................. $19,716 $14,980 Provision charged against operations........................... 1,500 6,060 Charge-offs..........................

Portions of the allowance for loan losses are allocated to cover the estimated losses inherent in particular risk categories of loans. The allocation of the allowance for loan losses is based upon the Company's loss experience over a period of years and is adjusted for subjective factors such as economic trends, performance trends, portfolio age and concentrations of credit. The allocation is made for analytical purposes and is not necessarily indicative of the categories in which future loan losses may occur. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any segment of loans.

All loans past due 90 days, however, are placed on nonaccrual status, unless the loan is both well collateralized and in the process of collection. Cash payments received while a loan is classified as nonaccrual are recorded as a reduction of principal as long as doubt exists as to collection. The Company is sometimes required to revise a loan's interest rate or repayment terms in a troubled debt restructuring. Nonperforming assets were $3.9 million at March 31, 2000 compared with $4.4 million at December 31, 1999. This resulted in a ratio of nonperforming assets to loans plus other real estate of 0.19% and 0.24% at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. The following table presents information regarding nonperforming assets as of the dates indicated: MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, 2000 1999 ---------- ------------ (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Nonaccrual loans..................... $1,811 $2,388 Accruing loans 90 or more days past due.................................. 1,240 641 Other real estate and foreclosed property............................. 802 1,337 ---------- ------------ Total non-performing assets..... $3,853 $4,366 ========== ============ Nonperforming assets to total loans and other real estate.............. 0.19% 0.24% The Company regularly updates appraisals on loans collateralized by real estate, particularly those categorized as nonperforming loans and potential problem loans. In instances where updated appraisals reflect reduced collateral values, an evaluation of the borrower's overall financial condition is made to determine the need, if any, for possible writedowns or appropriate additions to the allowance for loan losses. A loan is considered impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company's impaired loans were approximately $15.0 million and $13.7 million at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. The largest component of impaired loans at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 is a commercial energy related loan of approximately $10.6 million and $10.8 million, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2000 and the year ended December 31, 1999 was $14.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively. The total required allowance for loan losses related to these loans was $0 for each reported period. Interest income on impaired loans of $385,000 and $1.5 million was recognized for cash payments received during the three months ended March 31, 2000 and the year ended December 31, 1999, respectively. The Bank is not committed to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans have been modified. SECURITIES At the date of purchase, the Company classifies debt and equity securities into one of three categories: held to maturity, trading or available for sale. At each reporting date, the appropriateness of the classification is reassessed. Investments in debt securities are classified as held to maturity and measured at amortized cost in the financial statements only if management has the positive intent and ability to hold those securities to maturity. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading and measured at fair value in the financial statements with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Securities not classified as either held to maturity or trading are classified as available for sale and measured at fair value in the financial statements with unrealized gains and losses reported, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized. Gains and losses on sales of securities are determined using the specific-identification method. The Company has classified all securities as available for sale at March 31, 2000. This allows the Company to manage its investment portfolio more effectively and to enhance the average yield on the portfolio. 16 The amortized cost and approximate fair value of securities classified as available for sale is as follows: MARCH 31, 2000 ----------------------------------------------- GROSS UNREALIZED AMORTIZED ------------------- FAIR COST GAIN LOSS VALUE --------- ----- -------- ---------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) AVAILABLE FOR SALE: U.S. Government securities........... $ 77,523 $ 1 $ (1,961) $ 75,563 Mortgage-backed securities........... 543,877 424 (23,940) 520,361 Federal Reserve Bank stock........... 2,807 -- -- 2,807 Federal Home Loan Bank stock......... 15,605 -- -- 15,605 Other securities..................... 49,592 79 (7) 49,664 --------- ----- -------- ---------- TOTAL SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE.......................... $ 689,404 $ 504 $(25,908) $ 664,000 ========= ===== ======== ========== DECEMBER 31, 1999 ----------------------------------------------- GROSS UNREALIZED AMORTIZED ------------------- FAIR COST GAIN LOSS VALUE --------- ----- -------- ---------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) AVAILABLE FOR SALE: U.S. Government securities........... $ 78,527 $ 35 $ (1,567) $ 76,995 Mortgage-backed securities........... 560,471 356 (16,852) 543,975 Federal Reserve Bank stock........... 2,408 -- -- 2,408 Federal Home Loan Bank stock......... 14,886 -- -- 14,886 Other securities..................... 14,253 22 -- 14,275 --------- ----- -------- ---------- TOTAL SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE.......................... $ 670,545 $ 413 $(18,419) $ 652,539 ========= ===== ======== ========== Securities totaled $664.0 million at March 31, 2000, an increase of $11.5 million from $652.5 million at December 31, 1999. The yield on the securities portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was 6.44% while the yield was 6.31% for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The Company has no mortgage-backed securities that have been issued by non-agency entities. Included in the Company's mortgage-backed securities at March 31, 2000 were $262.8 million in agency issued collateral mortgage obligations. At March 31, 2000, $487.6 million of the mortgage-backed securities held by the Company had final maturities of more than 10 years. At March 31, 2000, approximately $30.8 million of the Company's mortgage-backed securities earned interest at floating rates and repriced within one year, and accordingly were less susceptible to declines in value should interest rates increase. 17 The following table summarizes the contractual maturity of investments (including securities and interest-bearing deposits) and their weighted average yields at March 31, 2000. The yield on the securities portfolio is based on average historical cost balances and does not give effect to changes in fair value that are reflected as a separate component of other comprehensive income.

Significant components within prepaid expenses and other assets at March 31, 2000 include the cash value of bank owned life insurance of $26.9 million and accounts receivable purchased of $18.7 million. DEPOSITS The Company offers a variety of deposit accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The Company's deposits consist of demand, savings, NOW accounts, money market and time accounts. The Company relies primarily on advertising, competitive pricing policies and customer service to attract and retain these deposits. As of March 31, 2000, the Company had less than two percent of its deposits classified as brokered funds and does not anticipate any significant increase. Deposits provide the primary source of funding for the Company's lending and investment activities, and the interest paid for deposits must be managed carefully to control the level of interest expense. The Company's ratio of average non-interest bearing demand deposits to average total deposits for the periods ended March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, was 27.51% and 26.88%, respectively. 18 The average daily balances and weighted average rates paid on deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and the year ended December 31, 1999, are presented below: MARCH 31, 2000 DECEMBER 31, 1999 ----------------------- ----------------------- AMOUNT RATE AMOUNT RATE ------------ --------- ------------ --------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) NOW accounts......................... $ 18,030 0.38% $ 28,807 2.31% Regular savings...................... 37,374 2.49 36,201 2.44 Premium Yield........................ 603,715 4.83 472,501 4.24 Money market savings................. 361,402 2.91 332,525 2.92 CD's less than $100,000.............. 211,281 5.14 221,161 4.92 CD's $100,000 and over............... 330,518 5.50 345,060 4.97 IRA's, QRP's and other............... 54,274 5.51 43,201 5.43 ------------ --------- ------------ --------- Total interest-bearing deposits...................... 1,616,594 4.50% 1,479,456 4.17% ========= ========= Non interest-bearing deposits........ 613,525 543,961 ------------ ------------ Total deposits.................. $ 2,230,119 $ 2,023,417 ============ ============ The following table sets forth the maturity of the Company's time deposits that are $100,000 or greater as of the dates indicated: MARCH 31, 2000 DECEMBER 31, 1999 ------------------ ----------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) 3 months or less..................... $166,078 $ 177,432 Between 3 months and 6 months........ 86,254 68,476 Between 6 months and 1 year.......... 67,650 67,388 Over 1 year.......................... 26,860 23,678 ------------------ ----------------- Total time deposits $100,000 and over.......................... $346,842 $ 336,974 ================== ================= BORROWINGS Securities sold under repurchase agreements and other borrowings, consisting of federal funds purchased and other bank borrowings, generally represent borrowings with maturities ranging from one to thirty days.

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Company's liquidity needs have primarily been met by growth in core deposits and increases in short-term borrowings, primarily from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The cash and federal funds sold position, supplemented by amortizing securities and loan portfolios, have generally created an adequate liquidity position. The Company's risk-based capital ratios including Leverage Capital, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital and the Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio were 7.63, 9.36 and 10.26, respectively, at March 31, 2000. OTHER MATTERS In June 1998, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, as amended, was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board to establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency- denominated forecasted transaction. The accounting for the changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The standard is effective for all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. ITEM 3.
