In our opinion these interim financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for all of 2002. For comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. 1. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investment Securities As of March 31, 2002, NCB's portfolios of investment securities, cash and cash equivalents had an average adjusted maturity of 404 days with interest rates in those portfolios varying from 2.250% to 8.125%. <Table> <Caption> Cash and Investments Investments Cash Available- Held-to- Equivalents for-sale Maturity --------------- ---------------- ---------------- Cash $ 30,904,095 $ - $ - Federal funds 32,383,036 - - Money market securities 11,361,629 2,583,920 - Private debt security - - 792,878 Mutual funds - 1,217,396 - Mortgage-backed securities - - 2,840,997 Corporate bonds - 2,201,609 - U.S. Treasury and Agency obligations - 24,948,084 - Interest-only receivables - 16,472,137 - --------------- ---------------- ---------------- $ 74,648,760 $ 47,423,146 $ 3,633,875 =============== ================ ================ </Table> 8 <Page> As of December 31, 2001, NCB's portfolios of investment securities, cash and cash equivalents were comprised of the following: <Table> <Caption> Cash and Investments Investments Cash Available- Held-to- Equivalents for-Sale Maturity ------------- ------------- ------------ Cash $ 15,754,791 $ - $ - Federal funds 43,033,299 - - Money market securities 7,699,041 2,570,698 - Private debt security - - 792,878 Mutual funds - 1,208,049 - Certificates of deposit - - - Mortgage-backed securities - - 2,827,541 Corporate bonds - 2,743,138 - U.S. Treasury and Agency obligations - 22,789,262 - Interest-only receivables - 18,273,425 - ------------- ------------- ------------ $ 66,487,131 $ 47,584,572 $ 3,620,419 ============= ============= ============ </Table> At March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, the investments in the available-for-sale portfolio were recorded at aggregate fair value. Restricted cash of $3,777,177 and $3,794,790 as of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, is held by a trustee for the benefit of certificate holders in the event of a loss on certain loans sold in 1992 and 1993. At March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the combined remaining balance of 1992 and 1993 loans totaled $30,445,728 and $33,284,777, respectively. The restricted cash will become available to NCB I, Inc. as the principal balance of the respective loans decreases. The loans sold have original maturities of ten to fifteen years. In addition, restricted cash of $10,000,000 at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, is held for the benefit of MBIA Insurance Corporation (MBIA) in the event of a loss on certain loans sold under the terms of a Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement dated June 29, 2001 (the "Agreement").

Segment Reporting NCB's reportable segments are strategic business units that provide diverse products and services within the financial services industry. NCB has five reportable segments: commercial lending, real estate lending, warehouse lending, NCB Savings Bank and other. The commercial lending segment provides financial services to cooperative and member-owned businesses. The real estate lending segment originates and services real estate loans nationally, with a concentration in New York City. The warehouse lending segment originates real estate and commercial loans for sale in the secondary market. The NCB Savings Bank segment provides traditional banking services such as lending and deposit gathering to retail, corporate and commercial customers. "Other" consists of NCB's unallocated parent company income and expense, and net interest income from investments and corporate debt after allocations to segments. NCB evaluates segment performance based on net income before taxes. The accounting policies of the segments are substantially the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the most recent annual report. Overhead and support expenses are allocated to each operating segment based on number of employees and other factors relevant to expenses incurred. Also included in overhead and support is depreciation allocated based on equipment usage. 12 <Page> The following is the segment reporting for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001 (dollars in thousands): <Table> <Caption> Real 2002 Commercial Estate Warehouse NCB Lending Lending Lending NCBSB Other Consolidated ---------- -------- --------- -------- -------- ------------ Net interest income Interest income $ 8,684 $ 3,937 $ 2,799 $ 3,086 $ 687 $ 19,193 Interest expense 4,970 1,628 1,325 1,384 1,648 10,955 --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ----------- Net interest income 3,714 2,309 1,474 1,702 (961) 8,238 Provision (credit) for loan losses 450 218 - 420 - 1,088 Non-interest income-external 1,352 488 3,136 1,180 369 6,525 Non-interest expense Direct expense 2,221 1,295 919 674 4,284 9,344 Overhead and support 501 692 155 393 (1,741) - --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ----------- Total non-interest expense 2,722 1,987 1,074 1,067 2,493 9,344 --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ----------- Income (loss) before taxes $ 1,894 $ 592 $ 3,536 $ 1,395 $ (3,134) $ 4,282 ========= ======== ======== ======== ======== =========== Total average assets $536,652 $175,774 $143,064 $165,000 $177,982 $1,198,472 ========= ======== ======== ======== ======== =========== <Caption> Real 2001 Commercial Estate Warehouse NCB Lending Lending Lending NCBSB Other Consolidated ---------- -------- --------- -------- -------- ------------ Net interest income Interest income $ 13,030 $ 3,671 $ 1,966 $ 3,097 $ 513 $ 22,277 Interest expense 9,213 2,614 1,251 1,918 (705) 14,291 --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ----------- Net interest income 3,817 1,057 715 1,179 1,218 7,986 Provision (credit) for loan losses 375 375 - - 750 Non-interest income-external 993 1,234 1,965 400 172 4,764 </Table> 13 <Page> <Table> Non-interest expense Direct expense 1,738 972 466 626 4,459 8,261 Overhead and support 348 236 68 293 (945) - --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ----------- Total non-interest expense 2,614 1,208 534 919 3,514 8,261 --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ----------- Income (loss) before taxes $ 2,349 $ 708 $ 2,146 $ 660 $ (2,124) $ 3,739 ========= ======== ======== ======== ======== =========== Total average assets $537,889 $176,225 $ 77,961 $154,287 $124,675 $1,071,037 ========= ======== ======== ======== ======== =========== </Table> 14 <Page> 7. Accounting for Derivatives Adoption of FAS 133 Effective January 1, 2001, NCB adopted SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended, and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $1.7 million gain to recognize the fair value of interest rate swaps with an offsetting cumulative effect adjustment of $1.7 million loss to recognize the change in fair value of related hedged debt due to changes in benchmark interest rates. Additionally, NCB recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $4.5 million loss to recognize derivatives at fair value and a cumulative effect adjustment of $4.6 million gain to recognize the change in fair value of related loans held for sale and loan commitments due to changes in benchmark interest rates. Derivative Instruments and Hedging NCB maintains a risk management strategy that includes the use of derivative instruments to reduce unplanned earnings fluctuations caused by interest rate volatility. Use of derivative instruments is a component of NCB's overall risk management strategy in accordance with a formal policy that is monitored by management, which has delegated authority over the interest rate risk management function. The derivative instruments utilized include interest rate swaps, and futures contracts. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties based upon a notional principal amount and maturity date. Interest rate futures generally involve exchange-traded contracts to buy or sell U.S. Treasury bonds or notes in the future at specified prices. NCB uses interest rate swaps to hedge loan commitments prior to actually funding a loan. During the commitment period, the loan commitments and related interest rate swaps are accounted for as derivatives and therefore recorded at fair value through income. Once a commitment becomes a loan, the derivative associated with the commitment is designated as a hedge on the loan. NCB is exposed to credit and market risk as a result of its use of derivative instruments. If the fair value of the derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owner owes NCB and a repayment risk exists. If the fair value of the derivative contract is negative, NCB owes the counterparty, so there is no repayment risk. NCB minimizes repayment risk by entering into transactions with financially stable counterparties that are specified by policy and reviewed periodically by management. When NCB has multiple derivative transactions with a single counterparty, the net mark-to-market exposure represents the netting of positive and negative exposures with that counterparty. The net mark-to-market exposure with a counterparty. 15 <Page> Market risk is the adverse effect that a change in interest rates or comparative currency values has on the fair value of a financial instrument or expected cash flows. NCB manages the market risk associated with the interest rate hedge contracts by establishing formal policy limits concerning the types and degree of risk that may be undertaken. Compliance with this policy is monitored by management and reported to the Board of Directors. Accounting for Derivatives All derivatives are recognized on the Balance Sheet at fair value. When a derivative contract is entered into, NCB determines whether or not it qualifies as a hedge. If it does, NCB designates the derivative as (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or (2) a hedge of actual or forecasted cash flows. When entering into hedging transactions, NCB documents the relationships between the hedging instruments and the hedged items to link all derivatives that are designated fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the Balance Sheet. NCB assesses, both at inception and on an on-going basis, the effectiveness of all hedges in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. NCB discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when (1) the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of a hedged item; or (2) the derivative matures or is sold, terminated or exercised. When hedge accounting is discontinued because the derivative no longer qualifies as an effective fair value hedge, it will continue to be carried on the Balance Sheet at its fair value and the hedged asset or liability will no longer be adjusted to reflect changes in fair value. When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is probable a forecasted transaction will not occur, NCB will continue to carry the derivative on the Balance Sheet at its fair value and any gains or losses accumulated in Other Non-Interest Income will be recognized immediately in earnings. In all other situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued, the derivative will be carried at fair value with the changes in fair value recognized in income. Fair-Value Hedges NCB enters into interest rate swaps and future contracts to hedge against changes in the fair value of fixed rate loans and debt due to changes in benchmark interest rates. 16 <Page> Results related to the hedging of warehouse loans are summarized below and included in the caption entitled "Gain On Sale of Loans" in the accompanying consolidated statements of income (in thousands): <Table> <Caption> Three Months Ended March 31, ---------------------------- 2002 2001 ---- ---- Unrealized gain (loss) on designated derivatives recognized $ 1,238 $(2,324) Increase (decrease) in value of warehouse loans (1,298) 2,173 ------- ------- Net hedge ineffectiveness (60) (151) Unrealized gain (loss) on undesignated loan commitments recognized 812 (51) Gain (loss) on undesignated derivatives recognized (888) 60 ------- ------- Net gain (loss) on undesignated derivatives (76) 9 Unrealized gain (loss) on non-hedging derivatives 732 (268) ------- ------- Net SFAS 133 adjustment $ 596 $ (410) ======= ======== </Table> Interest rate swaps are executed to manage the interest rate risk associated with specific assets or liabilities. An interest rate swap agreement commits each party to make periodic interest payments to the other based on an agreed-upon fixed rate or floating rate index. There are no exchanges of principal amounts. Entering into an interest rate swap agreement involves the risk of default by counterparties and interest rate risk resulting from unmatched positions. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk are significantly smaller than the notional amounts of the agreements. NCB is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by its counterparties in the aggregate amount of $7.6 million at March 31, 2002 representing the estimated cost of replacing, at current market rates, all outstanding swap agreements. NCB does not anticipate nonperformance by any of its counterparties. Income or expense from interest rate swaps is treated as an adjustment to interest expense/income on the hedged asset or liability. 17 <Page> Financial futures are contracts for delayed delivery of specific securities at a specified future date and at a specified price or yield. NCB purchases/sells these contracts to hedge the interest rate risk associated with originating mortgage loans that will be held for sale. NCB has minimal credit risk exposure on these financial instruments since changes in market value of financial futures are settled in cash on the following business day, and payment is guaranteed by the clearinghouse. The contract or notional amounts and the respective estimated fair value of NCB's financial future contracts and interest rate swaps at March 31, are as follows (dollars in thousands): <Table> <Caption> CONTRACT OR ESTIMATED NOTIONAL AMOUNTS FAIR VALUE ---------------- --------------- 2002 2001 2002 2001 -------- ------ -------- ------- Financial instruments whose contract amounts exceed the amount of credit risk Financial futures contracts $ 27,600 $ 27,400 $ 494 $ (118) Interest rate swap agreements $223,590 $235,800 $7,600 $1,530 </Table> 8. New Accounting Standards In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141, effective June 30, 2001, requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting; the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting is eliminated. SFAS No. 141 also establishes how the purchase method is to be applied for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. This guidance is similar to previous generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); however, SFAS No. 141 establishes additional disclosure requirements for transactions occurring after the effective date. SFAS No. 142 eliminates amortization of goodwill associated with business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 also provides additional guidance on acquired intangibles that should be separately recognized and amortized. During the transition period from July 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001, goodwill associated with business combinations completed prior to July 1, 2001 continued to be amortized through the income statement. Effective January 1, 2002, goodwill amortization expense ceased and goodwill will be assessed for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level by applying a fair-value-based test. Adoption of SFAS No. 142 did not have a material effect on the financial statements. SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," was also issued in June 2001. SFAS No. 143 addresses accounting and reporting for legal obligations and related costs associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. The Statement requires that the fair value of the liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The estimated retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Adoption of SFAS No. 143 will not have a material effect on the financial statements. 18 <Page> NATIONAL COOPERATIVE BANK MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 AND 2001 SUMMARY NCB's net income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $4.0 million. This was an increase of $0.7 million over the $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. The variance resulted from an increase in gain on sale of loans of $1.8 million and an increase in net interest income of $253,000. The variance was partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense and increase to provision for loan losses of $1.1 million and $338 thousand, respectively. Total assets were $1.212 billion at March 31, 2002, up $45.3 million from December 31, 2001. This resulted primarily from a increase in net loans and lease financing of $40.3 million related to an increase in loans held for sale and an increase of $8.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. The annualized return on average total assets was 1.32% for the first three months of 2002 compared with 1.23% for the same period in 2001. The annualized return on average equity for the period ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001 was 9.7% and 8.5%, respectively. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income for the first three months of 2002 decreased $253 thousand or 3.2% over the same period of 2001. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, total interest income decreased 13.8% or $3.1 million from the prior year's first quarter to $19.2 million. The majority of the decrease was due to lower yield on loan and lease portfolios. Interest expense decreased $3.3 million over the same period as last year. The variance is a result of decreasing interests rates for short-term facilities, such as deposits, short-term debt and revolving lines. Interest expense related to deposits, revolving lines, and short-term borrowings decreased $2.5 million from 2001; interest expense on commercial paper and long-term borrowing decreased by $849 thousand from 2001. See Table 1 for detailed information on the increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense. As shown in Table 1, the net interest spread increased 33 basis points to 2.38% from 2.05% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The net interest yield on earning assets was 2.90% and 3.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001, respectively. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 of $6.5 million increased $1.7 million from $4.8 million for the same period last year. Non-interest income is composed of gains from sales of blanket mortgages and share loans to secondary market investors, servicing fees, net origination fees on loans sold, management fees, advisory and debt placement fees and other income. The majority of the increase resulted from gains on loans sold of $1.8 million. Loans sold in the first quarter of 2002 were $148.0 million compared to $84.8 million in the first quarter of 2001. 19 <Page> Servicing fee income for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was $887 thousand, which was $88 thousand increase from the quarter ended March 31, 2002. NCB serviced single and multi-family real estate and commercial loans for investors in the amounts of $2.6 billion and $2.3 billion, at March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001, respectively. Other income for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, decreased 5.6% or $105 thousand to $1.8 million from $1.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2001. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2002 increased 13.7% or $1.1 million to $9.4 million compared with $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Compensation and employee benefits, which remains the single largest component of non-interest expense, increased 2.3% or $112 thousand. Compensation and employee benefits accounted for 53.4% and 59.3% of non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001, respectively. Non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets was 3.1% for both the three months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001. 20 <Page> Table 1 RATE RELATED ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (dollars in thousands) <Table> <Caption> Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 2001 ------------------------------------------------------------------- ASSETS Average Income/ Yields/ Average Income/ Yields/ Balance Expenses Rates Balance Expenses Rates ---------- ------- ------ ---------- -------- ------ Interest earning assets Real estate loans $ 483,838 $ 9,304 7.69% $ 378,017 $ 8,203 8.68% Commercial loans and leases 536,652 9,151 6.82% 601,325 13,181 8.77% ---------- ------- ---------- ------- Total loans and leases 1,020,490 18,455 7.23% 979,342 21,384 8.73% Investment securities and cash equivalents 114,998 738 2.57% 70,758 893 5.05% ---------- ------- ---------- ------- Total interest earning assets 1,135,488 19,193 6.76% 1,050,100 22,277 8.49% ---------- ------- ---------- ------- Allowance for loan losses (22,614) (21,587) Non-interest earning assets Cash 39,489 5,650 Other assets 46,108 37,095 ---------- ---------- Total non-interest earning assets 85,597 42,745 ---------- ---------- Total assets $1,198,471 $1,071,258 ========== ========== LIABILITIES AND MEMBERS' EQUITY Interest bearing liabilities Subordinated debt $ 186,208 $ 2,072 4.45% $ 182,230 $ 2,628 5.77% Notes payable 572,199 6,895 4.82% 561,627 9,749 6.94% Deposits 241,918 1,988 3.29% 144,846 1,914 5.29% ---------- ------- ---------- ------- Total interest bearing liabilities 1,000,325 10,955 4.38% 888,703 14,291 6.43% ------- ------- Other liabilities 35,068 26,864 Members' equity 163,078 155,691 ---------- ---------- Total liabilities and members' equity $1,198,471 $1,071,258 ========== ========== Net interest earning assets $ 134,823 $ 161,397 Net interest revenues and spread $ 8,238 2.38% $ 7,986 2.06% Net yield on interest earning assets 2.90% 3.04% </Table> 21 <Page> PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The federal income tax provision is determined on the basis of non-member income generated by NCB Savings Bank, FSB and the reserves set aside for the retirement of Class A notes and dividends on Class C stock. NCB's subsidiaries are also subject to varying levels of state taxation. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $320 thousand compared with the prior year's provision of $438 thousand. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENT SECURITIES Cash, cash equivalents and investment securities totaling $143.6 million at March 31, 2002 increased $8.0 million or 5.9% from $135.6 million at year-end 2001 primarily due to funding of loans and leases. As a percentage of earning assets, cash, cash equivalents and investment securities decreased to 12.2% at March 31, 2002 from 11.9 % at December 31, 2001. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2002 was $23.0 million, up by 3.5% from December 31, 2001. The allowance during the period was impacted by loans charged-off of $378.6 thousand, recoveries of loans previously charged-off of $69 thousand and the provision of $1.1 million. NCB's annualized provision for loan losses as a percentage of average loans and leases outstanding was 0.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 and less than 0.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The loan loss allowance as a percentage of average loans and leases increased to 2.8% at March 31, 2002 from 2.7% at December 31, 2001. Management considers the current allowance to be adequate to absorb known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. As shown in Table 3, total impaired assets (non-accruing loans and real estate owned) increased 36.4% from $5.7 million at December 31, 2001 to $7.8 million at March 31, 2002. Impaired assets as a percentage of loans and leases outstanding plus real estate owned was 0.95% at March 31, 2002 compared with 0.69% at year-end 2001. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of impaired assets decreased to 296% at March 31, 2002 from 391% at December 31, 2001. 22 <Page> Table 2 Changes in Net Interest Income (dollars in thousands) For the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to 2001 <Table> <Caption> Increase (decrease) due to change in: ------------------------------------- Average Average Volume* Yield Net** ------- ------- ------ Interest Income Cash equivalents and investment securities $ 614 $ 116 $ 730 Commercial loans and leases (1,315) (2,714) (4,029) Real estate loans 2,030 (1,814) 216 ------- ------- ------- Total interest income 1,329 (4,412) (3,083) ------- ------- ------- Interest expense Deposits 973 (899) 74 Notes payable (117) (2,737) (2,854) Subordinated debt 56 (612) (556) ------- ------- ------- Total interest expense 912 (4,248) (3,336) ------- ------- ------- Net interest income $ (417) $ 164 $ 253 ======= ======= ====== </Table> * Average monthly balances ** Changes in interest income and interest expense due to changes in rate and volume have been allocated to "change in average volume" and "change in average rate" in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts in each. 23 <Page> INTEREST BEARING LIABILITIES Interest Bearing Liabilities (dollars in thousands) <Table> <Caption> 3/31/02 12/31/01 % Change ----------- ---------- -------- Deposits $ 268,555 $ 222,890 20.5% Short-term debt 301,503 256,554 17.5% Long-term debt 251,846 296,941 (15.2%) Subordinated debt 185,469 186,452 (0.5%) ----------- ---------- Total $ 1,007,373 $ 962,837 4.6% =========== ========== </Table> Interest bearing liabilities increased $44.5 million to $1,007.3 million at March 31, 2002 from $962.8 million at December 31, 2001. For the first three months of 2002, deposits at NCB Saving Bank, FSB (NCBSB) increased 20.5% to $268.6 million compared with $222.9 million at December 31, 2001. The increase was attributable to an on-going strategic campaign to attract local and national deposit accounts and cooperative customers. Average maturity of the certificates of deposits is 9.4 months at March 31, 2002. NCB relies heavily on funds raised through the capital markets, deposits are a major portion of interest bearing liabilities - 26.7% and 23.1% at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. At March 31, 2002, total short-term and long-term borrowings (including subordinated debt) decreased 0.15% or $1.1 million to $738.8 million in comparison to prior year-end 2001 of $739.9 million. Proceeds from the borrowings were used to fund growth in loans and leases. At March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, NCBSB had advances of zero from the Federal Home Loan Bank. At March 31, 2002, included in the short-term borrowings were revolving lines of credit of $54.5 million; commercial paper with a face value of $207.1 million and $41.5 million in borrowings from a related entity and cooperative customers. At December 31, 2001, included in the short-term borrowings were revolving lines of credit of $50.5 million; commercial paper with a face value of $190.6 million and $16.1 million in borrowings from a related entity and cooperative customers. Long-term debt decreased 15.2% from year-end 2001 due to a maturity of $45.0 million under the long-term facilities. At March 31, 2002, there was unused capacity under the short-term and long-term facilities of approximately $69.4 million and $231.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 2001, unused capacity under the short-term and long-term facilities was $90.3 million and $231.0 million, respectively. 24 <Page> TABLE 3 Impaired assets (dollars in thousands) <Table> <Caption> March 31, Dec. 31, Sept. 30, June 30, March 31, 2002 2001 2001 2001 2001 --------- -------- --------- -------- -------- Real estate owned $ 557 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 Non-accruing 7,210 5,694 3,487 3,198 3,347 --------- -------- --------- -------- -------- $ 7,767 $ 5,694 $ 3,487 $ 3,198 $ 3,347 ========= ======== ========= ======== ======== </Table> ITEM 3.
