September 30, 2001


Note 1 - General

    The accompanying financial statements of Patriot Bank Corp. and Subsidiaries
("Patriot") include the accounts of the parent company, Patriot Bank Corp. and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Patriot Bank and Patriot Investment Company. All
material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore do not include certain information
or footnotes necessary for the presentation of financial condition, results of
operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. However, in the opinion of management, the consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (which consist of normal recurring accruals)
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the unaudited periods. The
results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September
30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for
the entire year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2000.

Note 7 - Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

        In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement as amended by SFAS No. 137
in June 1999 and SFAS No. 138 in June 2000 establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for
hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure
those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of
a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting
designation. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated as (a) a hedge of certain 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 foreign currency exposure. SFAS No. 133, as amended, is effective for all
fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Earlier adoption
is permitted. Patriot adopted SFAS 133 on January 1, 2001. At the time of
adoption, Patriot reclassified approximately $220,471,000 of fixed rate mortgage
backed securities, CMO's and agency securities from held to maturity to
available for sale and equity resulting in a net of tax increase of
approximately $3 million in accumulated other comprehensive income. Patriot
typically has not used derivative instruments and currently holds no positions
that had further significant impact upon the adoption of SFAS 133 on earnings,
financial condition or equity.

Note 8 - Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities

        In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140 "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."
This statement supercedes and replaces the guidance in Statement 125. It revises
the standards of accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial
assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, although it carries over
most of Statement 125's provisions without reconsideration. The Statement is
effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001 and for recognition and
reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization
transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000.
This Statement is to be applied prospectively with certain exceptions. Other
than those exceptions, earlier or retroactive application of its accounting
provisions is not permitted. There was no impact from the adoption of this
statement on Patriot's earnings, financial condition, or equity.

Note 9 - Business Combinations

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations." The
Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations
and supersedes APB Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations, and FASB Statement No.
38, Accounting for Pre-acquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises. All
business combinations in the scope of the Statement are to be accounted for
using the purchase method, thereby eliminating the use of the pooling of
interest method.

The provisions of the Statement apply to all business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001. The Statement also applies to all business combinations
accounted for using the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is
July 1, 2001, or later. Historically, Patriot has not used the pooling of
interest method and therefore, expects no impact on earnings, financial
condition, or equity upon adoption of Statement No. 141.

Note 10 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." The Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired
goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17,
Intangible Assets. It addresses how intangible assets that are acquired
individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a
business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their
acquisition. The Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible
assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the
financial statements, including requirements for periodic impairment evaluation.

The provisions of the Statement are required to be applied starting with fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001, except that goodwill and intangible
assets acquired after June 30, 2001, will be subject immediately to the
non-amortization and amortization provisions of the Statement. Early application
is permitted for entities with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001,
provided that the first interim financial statements have not previously been
issued. The Statement is required to be applied at the beginning of an entity's
fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets
recognized in its financial statements at that date. Upon adoption of Statement
No. 142 in January 2002, the anticipated effect on Patriot's earnings as a
result of the elimination of goodwill amortization expense is $800,000 after-tax
for fiscal year 2002. As required by SFAS No. 141, Patriot will perform an
impairment test upon adoption. At this time, Patriot doesn't anticipate any
impairment.


                                       13


Note 11 - Asset Retirement Obligations

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." This Statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets and the associated asset retirement costs. It applies to legal
obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from
the acquisition, construction, development and (or) the normal operation of a
long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. As used in this
Statement, a legal obligation is an obligation that a party is required to
settle as a result of an existing or enacted law, statute, ordinance, or written
or oral contract or by legal construction of a contract under the doctrine of
promissory estoppel. This Statement requires that the fair value of a liability
for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is
incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated
asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the
long-lived asset. This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 19, Financial
Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas Producing Companies, and it applies to
all entities. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. Earlier application is encouraged. The Bank does
not expect the adoption of the Statement to have an impact on it's earnings,
financial condition, or equity.


Note 12 - Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This Statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and
supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. However, the Statement retains the
fundamental provisions of Statement 121 for (a) recognition and measurement of
the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (b) measurement of
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. This Statement supersedes the
accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results
of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, for
the disposal of a segment of a business. However, this Statement retains the
requirement of Opinion 30 to report discontinued operations separately from
continuing operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity
that either has been disposed of (by sale, by abandonment, or in distribution to
owners) or is classified as held for sale. This Statement also amends ARB No.
51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to eliminate the exception to
consolidation for a temporarily controlled subsidiary. The provisions of this
Statement are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal
years, with earlier application encouraged. The provisions of this Statement
generally are to be applied prospectively. The Bank does not expect the adoption
of the Statement to have an impact on it's earnings, financial condition, or
equity.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis of
Patriot Bank Corp. and Subsidiaries (Patriot) contains forward-looking
statements. The forward-looking statements contained herein are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Important
factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to those
discussed in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations". Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as of
the date hereof. Patriot undertakes no obligation to publicly revise or update
these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise
after the date hereof.

    GENERAL. Patriot reported diluted earnings per share of $.26 and net income
of $1,578,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 compared to
diluted earnings per share of $.21 and net income of $1,228,000 for the three
month period ended September 30, 2000. Diluted earnings per share for the
nine-month period ending September 30, 2001 was $.75 and net income of
$4,455,000 compared with $.68 and net income of $4,022,000 for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2000. Return on average equity was 10.67%, for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2001 compared to 9.48%, for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2000.

    NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income for the three-month and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2001 was $5,987,000 and $17,324,000 compared to
$5,368,000 and $17,568,000 for the same periods in 2000. Patriot's net interest
margin (net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets)
was 2.40% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 compared to 2.28%
for the same period in 2000. The improvement of Patriot's interest margin spread
to 2.61% is primarily associated with decreases in the cost of funds associated
with growth of Patriot's core deposit accounts, continuing growth in the higher
yielding commercial loan and lease portfolios, coupled with the reductions in
investments and mortgage loans and associated wholesale funding.

    Interest on loans and leases was $13,505,000 and $41,230,000 for the
three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to
$14,474,000 and $41,596,000 for the same periods in 2000. The average balance of
loans was $655,172,000 with an average yield of 8.37% for the nine-month period
ended September 30, 2001 compared to an average balance of $669,394,000 with an
average yield of 8.28% for the same period in 2000. The decrease in interest on
loans is the result of Patriot's two year plan to allow mortgages to run-off,
offset by aggressive marketing of commercial loans and leases. The increase in
average yield is primarily a result of a greater volume of higher yielding
commerical loans and leases.

    Interest on Patriot's investment portfolio (investment and mortgage-backed
securities) was $4,931,000 and $16,595,000 for the three-month and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to $6,992,000 and $21,384,000 for the
same periods in 2000. The average balance of the investment portfolio was
$342,947,000 with an average yield of 6.81% for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2001 compared to an average balance of $418,547,000 with an
average yield of 7.15% for the same period in 2000. The decrease in average
balance is primarily due to Patriot allowing the investment portfolio to
amortize down so it can be replaced with commercial assets. The decrease in
average yield is related to general decreases in market rates on adjustable
securities.

    Interest on total deposits was $6,330,000 and $22,512,000 for the
three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to
$8,578,000 and $22,056,000 for the same periods in 2000. The average balance of
total deposits was $587,874,000 with an average cost of 5.12% for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2001 compared to an average balance $586,112,000 with
an average cost of 5.01% for the same period in 2000. The increase in average
balance is primarily the result of aggressive marketing of certificates of
deposit, money market and other transaction-based deposit accounts, offset by a
decrease in Patriot's jumbo deposit program. The increase in average yield was
the result of general increases in interest rates and growth in the jumbo
deposit program in 2000. Patriot has shifted their focus in 2001 from growing
jumbo deposits by replacing them with lower cost of borrowings as they run-off.

     Interest on borrowings was $6,190,000 and $18,478,000 for the three-month
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to $7,584,000 and
$23,649,000 for the same periods in 2000. The average balance of borrowings was
$419,212,000 with an average cost of 5.82% for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2001 compared to an average balance of $519,541,000 with an
average cost of 5.99% for the same period in 2000. The decrease in average
balance is primarily due to borrowings being replaced by proceeds received on
investment sales, run-off of mortgage loan portfolio and growth in Patriot's
deposit based products offset by growth in Patriot's commercial loan and lease
portfolios. The decrease in the cost of borrowings was the result of a decrease
in interest rates.

    PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES. The provision for credit losses was $500,000
and $1,450,000 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30,
2001 compared to $225,000 and $825,000 for the same period in 2000. Patriot
analyzes the loan loss reserve on a monthly basis to ensure its adequacy.
Patriot's total loans consist of four distinct portfolios - mortgage, consumer,
commercial loans and commercial leases. The mortgage loan portfolio is mature as
Patriot has been in the mortgage lending business for many years. The consumer
loan portfolio is also mature as Patriot has been in this business for many
years as well. The level of reserves allocated to mortgage and consumer lending
have been consistently based on extensive historical data regarding, among other
things, delinquencies, charge-offs and recoveries. Since entering the commercial
loan and lease businesses, Patriot has maintained reserves for these portfolios
at an acceptable level as determined by management. However, many of the loans,
especially the commercial loans were originated in the last 36 to 48 months, and
therefore management willl continue to analyze recent historical data regarding
commercial loan and lease delinquencies, charge-offs and recoveries to determine
the appropriate level of reserves going forward. Almost all of the growth during
the first nine-months of 2001 in Patriot's


                                       15


loan portfolio has been in commercial lending and leasing. Based on the
aforementioned criteria, the provision was increased in 2001 due to the
additional exposure that has been assumed by Patriot by focusing more on
commercial lending and leasing, which historically has had a higher credit risk
despite the fact that Patriot continues to currently have excellent asset
quality with low levels of non-performing assets. At September 30, 2001
Patriot's non-performing assets were .45% of total assets and all loans 30 days
or more delinquent were 1.17% of total loans.

    NON-INTEREST INCOME. Total non-interest income was $1,991,000 and $5,941,000
for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to
$2,276,000 and $5,563,000 for the same periods in 2000. The three-month decrease
in non-interest income was primarily due to a decrease in mortgage banking gains
related to a one time sale of $50,000,000 of residential mortgage loans in 2000
offset by an increased emphasis on recurring non-interest income such as loan,
deposit and ATM fees. The nine-month increase in non-interest income was
primarliy the result of increased deposit fees coupled with gains recognized on
the sale of investment securities available for sale offset by a decrease in
mortgage banking gains.

    NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Total non-interest expense was $5,271,000 and
$15,334,000 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001
compared to $5,904,000 and $17,210,000 for the same periods in 2000. The
decrease in non-interest expense was primarly due to Patriot's restructuring of
its mortgage banking operations overhead structure from a fixed to variable cost
model.

    INCOME TAX PROVISION. The income tax provision was $629,000 and $1,822,000
for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 compared to
$287,000 and $1,074,000 for the same periods in 2000. The effective tax rate was
28.50% and 28.11% for three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30,
2001 compared to 18.94% and 21.08% for the same periods in 2000. The increase in
income tax provision is primarily due to income provided by certain tax
preferential securities comprising a smaller percentage of taxable income in
2001 coupled with the sale of some tax preferential securities in 2001.

    FINANCIAL CONDITION

    LOAN AND LEASE PORTFOLIO. Patriot's primary portfolio loan products are
commercial loans, small ticket commercial leases, fixed-rate and adjustable-rate
mortgage loans and home equity loans and lines of credit. Patriot also offers
residential construction loans and other consumer loans. At September 30, 2001
Patriot's total loan portfolio was $649,288,000, compared to a total loan
portfolio of $650,640,000 at December 31, 2000. The decrease in the loan
portfolio was primarily the result of Patriot's two-year plan to allow
residential mortgages to run-off offset by growth in the commercial loan and
lease portfolios. Commercial loan and lease originations for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2001 were $117,874,000 compared to $148,390,000 for
the same period in 2000.

    CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2001
were $19,644,000 compared to $27,076,000 at December 31, 2000. The decrease in
cash balances is associated with timing differences in borrowing activity and
investment prepayments.

INVESTMENT AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES. Investment securities consist
primarily of U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed securities which are
generally insured or guaranteed by either FHLMC, FNMA or the GNMA and
collateralized mortgage obligations. Total investment and mortgage-backed
securities at September 30, 2001 were $312,504,000 compared to $387,378,000 at
December 31, 2000. The decrease in investment and mortgage-backed securities is
primarily due to $49,830,000 of investments sold during this period along with
higher investment amortization and prepayments. Additionally, Patriot adopted
SFAS 133 on January 1, 2001. At the time of adoption, Patriot reclassified
approximately $220,471,000 of fixed rate mortgage backed securities, CMO's and
agency securities from held to maturity to available for sale and equity
resulting in a net of tax increase of approximately $3,000,000 in accumulated
other comprehensive income. Patriot typically has not used derivative
instruments and currently holds no positions that had further significant impact
upon the adoption of SFAS 133 on earnings, financial condition or equity. During
the first quarter of 2001, Patriot sold $30,333,000 of the securities
reclassified resulting in a cumulative change in accounting principle with a net
after tax impact of a $204,000 loss.

    OTHER ASSETS. Other assets at September 30, 2001 were $7,183,000 compared to
$8,729,000 at December 31, 2000. The decrease in other assets was primarily
attributable to adjustments to Patriot's deferred tax position related to
unrealized gains on investments and mortgage backed securities available for
sale and timing issues related to in-process suspense accounts.

    DEPOSITS. Deposits are primarily attracted from within Patriot's market area
through the offering of various deposit instruments, including NOW accounts,
money market accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposit and retirement
savings plans. Patriot also attracts jumbo certificates of deposit. Total
deposits at September 30, 2001 were $536,886,000 compared to $651,958,000 at
December 31, 2000. The decrease in balance is primarily attributed to the
run-off of $145,763,000 of wholesale banking deposits offset by $30,691,000
growth in Patriot's core deposits.


                                       16


    BORROWINGS. Patriot utilizes borrowings as a source of funds for its asset
growth and its asset/liability management. Patriot is eligible to obtain
advances from the FHLB upon the security of the FHLB common stock it owns and
certain of its residential mortgages and mortgage-backed securities, provided
certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. Patriot may also
utilize repurchase agreements to meet its liquidity needs. FHLB advances are
made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own
interest rate and range of maturities. The maximum amount that the FHLB will
advance to member institutions fluctuates from time to time in accordance with
the policies of the FHLB. Total borrowings at September 30, 2001 were
$424,529,000 compared to $416,837,000 at December 31, 2000. The increase is
primarily associated with higher yielding deposits being replaced by lower
yielding borrowings.

OTHER LIABILTIIES. Other Liabilities at September 30, 2001 were $5,356,000
compared to $417,000 at December 31, 2000. The increase in other liabilities is
primarliy related to the position of the federal income tax liability of the
bank associated with the one time charge in the fourth quarter of 2000 and the
accruing of federal taxes on Patriot's earnings throughout 2001.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY. Total stockholders' equity was $62,152,000 at September
30, 2001 compared to $51,800,000 at December 31, 2000. The increase in balance
is primarily due to earnings offset by dividends paid to shareholders' and
increases in accumulated other comprehensive income.


                                       17


      LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Liquidity. Patriot's primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and
interest payments on loans, principal and interest payments on investment and
mortgage-backed securities, FHLB advances and repurchase agreements. While
maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and investment and
mortgage-backed securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit inflows and
loan and mortgage-backed security prepayments are greatly influenced by economic
conditions, general interest rates and competition. Therefore, Patriot manages
its balance sheet to provide adequate liquidity based upon various economic,
interest rate and competitive assumptions and in light of profitability
measures.

    During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, significant liquidity
was provided by maturities of investment and mortgage-backed securities. The
funds provided by these activities were invested in new commercial loans and
leases and the repayment of borrowings.

         At September 30, 2001, Patriot had outstanding loan commitments of
$66,781,000. Patriot anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to
meet its loan origination commitments. Certificates of deposit which are
scheduled to mature in one year or less from September 30, 2001 totaled
$234,289,000. Based upon historical experience, Patriot expects that
substantially all of the maturing certificates of deposit will be retained at
maturity.

         Capital Resources. FDIC regulations currently require companies to
maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio of not less than 3% of tier 1 capital
to total adjusted assets and not less than 4% of risk-adjusted assets, and a
minimum risk-based capital ratio (based upon credit risk) of not less than 8%.
The FDIC requires a minimum leverage capital requirement of 3% for institutions
rated composite 1 under the CAMEL rating system. For all other institutions, the
minimum leverage capital requirement is 3% plus at least an additional 1% to 2%,
(100 to 200) basis points. At September 30, 2001, Patriot Bank's and Patriot
Bank Corp.'s capital ratios exceeded all requirements to be considered well
capitalized. The following table sets forth the capital ratios of Patriot Bank
Corp., Patriot Bank and the current regulatory requirements at September 30,
2001:

    MANAGEMENT OF INTEREST RATE RISK

    The principal objective of Patriot's interest rate risk management function
is to evaluate the interest rate risk included in certain on and off balance
sheet accounts, determine the level of risk appropriate given Patriot's business
focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements and performance
objectives, and manage the risk consistent with Board approved guidelines.
Through such management, Patriot seeks to reduce the vulnerability of its net
interest income to changes in interest rates. Patriot monitors its interest rate
risk as such risk relates to its operating strategies. Patriot's Board of
Directors has established an Asset/Liability Committee comprised of senior
management, which is responsible for reviewing its asset/liability and interest
rate position and making decisions involving asset/liability considerations. The
Asset/Liability Committee meets regularly and reports trends and Patriot's
interest rate risk position to the Board of Directors.

    The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the
extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest rate sensitive" and by
monitoring an institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap." An asset or
liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if
it will mature or reprice within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity
gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets
maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of
interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A
gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets
exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered
negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the
amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of rising interest
rates, a negative gap theoretically would tend to adversely affect net interest
income, while a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest
income. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap
position would theoretically tend to result in an increase in net interest
income while a positive gap would tend to affect net interest income adversely.

    Patriot pursues several actions designed to control its level of interest
rate risk. These actions include increasing the percentage of the loan portfolio
consisting of short-term and adjustable-rate loans through increased
originations of these loans, acquiring short-term and adjustable-rate
mortgage-backed securities, and undertaking to lengthen the maturities of
deposits and borrowings. At September 30, 2001, Patriot's total net
interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within one year exceeded its total
interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing in the same time period by
$58,625,000 representing a one-year cumulative "gap," as defined above, as a
percentage of total assets of a positive 5.68%.

    The following table sets forth the amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at September 30, 2001, which are
anticipated, based upon certain assumptions, to reprice or mature in each of the
future time periods shown. Except as stated below, the amount of assets and
liabilities shown which reprice or mature during a particular period were
determined in accordance with the earlier of term to repricing or the
contractual maturity of the asset or liability. The table sets forth an
approximation of the projected repricing of assets and liabilities at September
30, 2001, on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated prepayments, and
scheduled rate adjustments within a Three-Month period and subsequent selected
time intervals. The loan amounts in the table reflect principal balances
expected to be repaid and/or repriced as a result of contractual amortization
and anticipated prepayments of adjustable-rate loans and fixed-rate loans, and
as a result of contractual rate adjustments on adjustable-rate loans.

    As shown above, the Bank has a positive gap (interest-sensitive assets are
greater than interest-sensitive liabilities) within the next year, which
generally indicates that an increase in rates may lead to an increase in net
interest income and a decrease in rates may lead to a decrease in net interest
income.

    The disscusion concerning the effects of interest rate changes on the
Company's estimated net interest income for the year ending December 31, 2001
set forth in "Managements Discussion an Analysis of Financial and Results of
Operations -- Management of Interest Rate Risk" in Item 2 herof, is incorporated
herein by reference.

    In addition to gap analysis, Patriot utilizes income simulation modeling in
measuring its interest rate risk and managing its interest rate sensitivity.
Income simulation considers not only the impact of changing market interest
rates on forecasted net interest income, but also other factors such as yield
curve relationships, the volume and mix of assets and liabilities, customer
preferences and general market conditions.

    Through the use of income simulation modeling Patriot has calculated an
estimate of net interest income for the year through September 30, 2002, based
upon the assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments in
existence at September 30, 2001. Patriot has also estimated changes to that
estimated net interest income based upon interest rates rising or falling in
monthly increments ("rate ramps"). Rate ramps assume that all interest rates
increase or decrease in monthly increments evenly throughout the period modeled.
The following table reflects the estimated percentage change in estimated net
interest income for the period ending September 30, 2002.



                     ---------------------------------------
                            Rate ramp
                        to interest rates     % change
                     ---------------------------------------
                                         
                                +2%              2.11%

                                -2%             (3.87%)


    Patriot's management believes that the assumptions utilized in evaluating
Patriot's estimated net interest income are reasonable; however, the interest
rate sensitivity of Patriot's assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet
financial instruments as well as the estimated effect of changes in interest
rates on estimated net interest income could vary substantially if different
assumptions are used or actual experience differs from the experience on which
the assumptions were based.

    PART II          OTHER INFORMATION



           Item 1    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS



                     There are various claims and lawsuits in which Patriot is
periodically involved incidental to the Patriot's business, which in the
aggregate involve amounts which are believed by management to be immaterial to
the financial condition, equity, and results of operations of the Company.
