TABLE OF CONTENTS Page President's Message 1 General Information 3 Selected Consolidated Financial and Other Data of the Company 4 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 6 Consolidated Financial Statements 16 Stockholder Information 48 Corporate Information 49 March 30, 1999 Dear Stockholder, We are pleased to provide you with the Annual Report on the Consolidated Financial statements of First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc., (The Company), holding company of First Federal Savings & Loan Association of Allen Parish (First Federal), for the year ended December 31, 1998. Consolidated assets of First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc., increased $5.2 million, or 15.4 %, to $38.7 million at December 31, 1998, from $33.5 million at December 31, 1997. Net loans receivable increased $1.2 million, or $9.2%, to $14.9 million at December 31, 1998, from $13.6 million at December 31, 1997, due to an increase in real estate loans, consumer loans and other loans. Deposits increased $4.9 million, or 17.1%, to $33.6 million at December 31, 1998, from $28.7 million at December 31, 1997. There were no Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances outstanding at December 31, 1998 and 1997. Total stockholders' equity increased $248,000 to $4.8 million at December 31, 1998, from $4.5 million at December 31, 1997. Earnings for the year provided a $222,000 increase, which was offset by dividends paid to stockholders at 30 cents per share, or $80,000. Allocation of ESOP shares and RRP shares increased equity by $45,000 and $51,000, respectively. The Company has a strong capital base and exceeds all regulatory capital requirements. This strong capital base has enabled us to invest in the expansion of our market area and increase our market share. In November 1998, a newly constructed full-service branch was opened in Oberlin, Louisiana, the Parish Seat, staffed with a Manager and a Loan Assistant and two tellers, and offering a full range of banking services. We are very pleased with the positive response from the community. A Loan Production Office (LPO) was also opened in Kinder, Louisiana, staffed with a Loan Officer, and offering a full range of loan products and services. Community response has been very positive, with increasing demands for a full-service banking facility at this location. Expansion efforts have created additional expense items, but this should be offset by increased future income and growth. 1 Since its origination in 1962, First Federal Savings & Loan Association of Allen Parish has been, and intends to continue to be, a community-oriented financial institution, offering a full range of banking services aimed at meeting the financial needs of the families and communities it serves. Our customers appreciate the fact that we are the only hometown financial institution in Allen Parish, easily accessible and here for them. In the years ahead, the Company's Board of Directors, management and staff will remain committed to the continued growth of First Federal, offering a wide variety of banking services, meeting the financial needs of its customers and building a strong stockholder value. Thank you for your investment in First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc., and First Federal Savings & Loan Association of Allen Parish. Sincerely, /s/Charles L. Galligan ---------------------- Charles L.

The only significant assets of the Company are the capital stock of the Association, the Company's loan to an employee stock ownership plan, and investment securities in United States government and agency obligations. The business of the Company initially consists of the business of the Association.

The acquisition of the Association by First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. was consummated on September 27, 1996 in connection with the Association's conversion from the mutual to the stock form. The Company's results of operations depend primarily on its level of net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of mortgage and consumer loans and investments, and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances. Net interest income is a function of the Company's "interest rate spread," which is the difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as a function of the average balance of interest-bearing assets as compared to interest-bearing liabilities. The interest rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and deposit flows. The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest-rate risk to the degree that its interest-earning assets mature or reprice at different times, or on a different basis, than its interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's operating results are also affected by the amount of its non-interest income, including loan fees and service charges and other income. Non-interest expense consists principally of employee compensation and employee benefits, occupancy expenses, data processing, federal deposit insurance premiums, stationery and printing and other operating expenses. The Company's operating results are affected by general economic and competitive conditions, in particular, the changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions by regulatory authorities. During 1998, the Company's board of directors, with approval from the Office of Thrift Supervision, authorized the construction of a full-service branch in Oberlin, Louisiana and a loan production office in Kinder, Louisiana. The Company invested approximately $405,000 in premises and equipment for these facilities. Management believes this investment will increase future earnings because of the competitive edge the new branch and loan production office allow in these market areas. Financial Condition Total assets increased $5.2 million, or 15.4%, to $38.7 million at December 31, 1998 from $33.5 million at December 31, 1997. The increase was primarily funded by an increase in deposits of $4.9 million to $33.6 million at December 31, 1998 from $28.7 million at December 31, 1997. The proceeds from the increase in deposits were used to finance a $1.2 million increase in net loans receivable, a $4.4 million increase in cash and cash equivalents and $400,000 in construction of a full-service branch in Oberlin, Louisiana. 6 Net loans receivable increased by $1.2 million, or 9.2%, to $14.9 million at December 31, 1998 from $13.6 million at December 31, 1997 due to an increase in real estate and consumer and other loans. Mortgage-backed and related securities and cash equivalents increased $3.5 million or 18.2% to $22.5 million at December 31, 1998 from $19.0 million at December 31, 1997. This increase was financed from the increase in deposits as mentioned above. Deposits increased $4.9 million or 17.1% to $33.6 million at December 31, 1998 from $28.7 million at December 31, 1997. There were no FHLB advances outstanding at December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997. Total equity increased $248,000 to $4.8 million at December 31, 1998 from $4.5 million at December 31, 1997. Earnings for the year provided a $222,000 increase, which was offset by dividends paid to stockholders of $80,000. Allocation of ESOP shares and RRP shares increased equity by $45,000 and $51,000, respectively. The Company's capital exceeded all of the capital requirements imposed by FIRREA. OTS regulations provide that an institution that exceeds all capital requirements before and after a proposed capital distribution and, like the Company, has not been notified of a need for more than normal supervision could, after prior notice but without approval by the OTS, make capital distributions during the calendar year of up to 100% of its net income to date during the calendar year plus the amount that would reduce by one-half its "surplus capital ratio" (the excess capital over its capital requirements) at the beginning of the calendar year. Any additional capital distributions would require prior regulatory approval. The Association declared dividends in 1998 of $80,000 or 30 cents per share. Results of Operations The Company's results of operations depend primarily on the level of its net interest income and non-interest income and its control of operating expenses. Net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them. The Company's non-interest income consists primarily of fees charged on transaction accounts and fees charged for delinquent payments received on mortgage and consumer loans. In addition, non-interest income is derived from insurance commissions, loan origination and servicing fees and other operating revenues. The schedule on the following page 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 total dollar amount of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities and resultant rates. All average balances are monthly average balances. Management does not believe that the use of monthly balances instead of daily balances has caused a material difference in the information presented. Nonaccruing loans have been included as loans carrying a zero yield. 7 Years Ended December 31, ----------------------------------------------------------- 1998 1997 --------------------------- ---------------------------- Average Average Average Yield/ Average Yield/ Balance Interest Cost Balance Interest Cost ------- ------ ----- ------- ------ ---- (Dollars in thousands) Interest-earning assets: Mortgage loans(1) $11,014 $949 8.61% $10,037 $ 911 9.08% Consumer and other loans 3,204 329 10.27 2,731 255 9.36 Mortgage-backed securities 16,337 1,047 6.41 15,975 1,042 6.48 FHLB stock 258 16 5.94 256 15 5.95 Other interest-bearing deposits 1,956 70 3.62 1,828 79 4.66 ------- ------ ----- ------- ------ ---- Total interest-earning assets 32,769 2,411 7.36 30,827 2,302 7.47 Non-interest earning assets 1,208 - 0.00 1,051 - 0.00 ------- ------ ----- ------- ------ ---- Total average assets $33,977 $2,411 7.10% $31,878 $2,302 7.22% ======= ====== ===== ======= ====== ===== Interest-bearing liabilities: Passbook accounts $ 2,450 $ 50 2.05% $ 2,641 $ 53 2.01% NOW and money market accounts 6,117 102 1.67 6,643 90 1.36 Certificates 20,563 1,087 5.29 18,460 1,068 5.79 FHLB advances 119 5 4.13 282 16 5.64 ------- ------ ----- ------- ------ ---- Total interest-bearing liabilities 29,249 1,244 4.25 28,026 1,227 4.38 Non-interest bearing liabilities 616 - 0.00 699 - 0.00 ------- ------ ----- ------- ------ ---- Total average liabilities $29,865 $1,244 4.17% $28,725 $1,227 4.27% ======= ====== ===== ======= ====== ===== Net interest income $1,167 $1,075 Net interest rate spread(2) ====== 3.11% ====== 3.09% ===== Net interest margin(3) 3.56% 3.49% Average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing ===== liabilities 112.03% 109.99% ====== ====== (1) Average balances include non-accrual loans.

For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by old rate); (ii) changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by old volume); and the net change. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionally to the changes due to volume and the changes due to rate.

Net income for the year ended December 31, 1998 decreased by $32,000 or 12.7% to $222,000 or $.90 per share from $254,000 or $1.04 per share for the year ended December 31, 1997. The decrease was due to the combined effects of a $35,000 increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses, a $42,000 increase in service charges on deposits, a $5,000 increase in loan origination and servicing fees, a $17,000 decrease in other expenses, a $42,000 decrease in income taxes and a $3,000 decrease in net other real estate expenses offset by a $2,000 decrease in insurance commissions earned, a $6,000 decrease in gain on foreclosed real estate, a $7,000 decrease in other operating revenues, a $100,000 increase in compensation and employee benefits, a $16,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expenses, a $20,000 increase in stationery and printing and a $26,000 increase in data processing. Interest Income. For the year ended December 31, 1998, net interest income increased by $91,000 to $1.17 million from $1.08 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. This reflects an increase of $109,000 in interest income to $2.4 million from $2.3 million and an increase of $18,000 in interest expense to $1.24 million from $1.23 million. The small increase in interest income was due primarily to an increase in total interest-earning assets offset by decreased rates earned. The small increase in interest expense was also due primarily to an increase in total interest-bearing liabilities. Interest income on loans increased $111,000 or 9.4% to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1998 from $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. Interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities increased slightly by $6,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 from the year ended December 31, 1997. Interest Expense. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1998 increased $18,000 to $1.24 million from $1.22 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. Average balances in certificates of deposit increased $2.1 million to $20.6 million at December 31, 1998 from $18.5 million at December 31, 1997; however, the decline in rates paid resulted in a slightly lower cost of funds. Average non-certificate balances decreased $717,000 to $8.6 million from $9.3 million from 1997 to 1998. Interest expense on FHLB advances decreased to $5,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 from $16,000 for the prior year. Provision for Loan Losses. The Association maintains an allowance for loan losses based upon management's periodic evaluation of known and inherent risks in the loan, the Association's past loss experience, adverse conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to repay loans, estimated value of the underlying collateral and current and expected market conditions. The allowance for loan losses was $304,057 at December 31, 1998 and $300,260 at December 31, 1997. The provision for loan losses is the method by which the allowance for losses is adjusted during the period. The Association's provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $58,664, and $3,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. Management's focus on asset quality has resulted in an allowance for loan losses to non-performing assets of 259.3%. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans remains low at .70% at December 31, 1998. 10 Management believes its allowance for loan losses is at a level that is considered to be adequate to provide for estimated losses; however; there can be no assurance that further additions will not be made to the loss allowance and that such losses will not exceed the estimated amount. Non-interest Income. For the year ended December 31, 1998, non-interest income was $312,000 compared to $277,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. The increase of $35,000 was due to increases of $42,000 in service charges on deposits, $5,000 in loan origination and servicing fees, $3,000 decrease in net other real estate expenses offset by decreases of $6,000 in gain in foreclosed real estate, $7,000 in other operating revenues and $2,000 in insurance commissions earned. Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $145,000 or 15.3% to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1998 from $947,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. This increase was the result of a $100,000 increase in compensation and employee benefits primarily from additional salaries associated with the new branch, loan production office and stock benefit plans, a $16,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expenses, a $20,000 increase in stationery and printing and a $26,000 increase in data processing offset by a $17,000 decrease in other expenses. The increases in occupancy and equipment and stationery and printing were directly related to increased costs associated with the new branch and loan production office. Data processing expenses increased primarily because of efforts to upgrade computers and software to "year 2000" compliance (see Note 24 in the consolidated financial statements). Other expenses decreased primarily due to a reduction in professional fees. Income Taxes. Income taxes decreased $42,000 or 28.6% to $106,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 from $148,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. The decrease in income taxes was the result of the relatively smaller increases in net interest income after provision for loan losses and non-interest income offset by the increase in non-interest expenses. Interest Rate Sensitivity Net Portfolio Value. In order to encourage associations to reduce their interest rate risk, the OTS adopted a rule incorporating an interest rate risk ("IRR") component into the risk-based capital rules. The IRR component is a dollar amount that will be deducted from total capital for the purpose of calculating an institution's risk-based capital requirement and is measured in terms of the sensitivity of its net portfolio value ("NPV") to changes in interest rates. NPV is the difference between incoming and outgoing discounted cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet contracts. An institution's IRR is measured as the change to its NPV as a result of a hypothetical 200 basis point ("bp") change in market interest rates. A resulting change in NPV of more than 2% of the estimated market value of its assets will require the institution to deduct from its capital 50% of that excess change. The rules provide that the OTS will calculate the IRR component quarterly for each institution. The Company, based on asset size and risk-based capital, has 11 been informed by the OTS that it is exempt from this rule. Nevertheless, the following table presents the Company's NPV at December 31, 1998 as calculated by the OTS, based on information provided to the OTS by the Company. Change in December 31, 1998 Interest Rates Net Portfolio Value In Basis Points ------------------------------ (Rate Shock) Amount Change ------------ ------ ------ (Dollars in thousands) 400 3,867 (11)% 300 4,114 (6) 200 4,265 (2) 100 4,331 (1) Static 4,355 - (100) 4,422 2 (200) 4,615 6 (300) 5,040 16 (400) 5,472 26 As shown in the above table, increase in interest rates will result in net decreases in the Company's NPV, while decrease in interest rates will result in smaller net increases in the NPV. For example, the table reflects the Company's NPV decreasing 6% if interest rates increased by 300bp, whereas the NPV would increase by 16% if interest rates decreased by 300bp. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in both the computation of NPV and in the analysis of the maturing and repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods within which they will reprice, they may react differently to changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, adjustable-rate mortgages have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. The proportion of adjustable-rate loans could be reduced in future periods if market interest rates would decrease and remain at lower levels for a sustained period, due to increased refinancing activity. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of a sustained interest rate increase. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings and principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed and investment securities. In the event that the Company should require funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, additional sources of funds are available through the use of FHLB advances. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan repayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and competition. 12 Federal regulations require the Association to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets. The required percentage has varied from time to time based upon economic conditions and savings flows and is currently 4 percent of net withdrawable savings deposits and borrowings payable on demand in one year or less during the preceding calendar month. Liquid assets for purposes of this ratio include cash, certain time deposits, U. S. Government, government agency and other securities and obligations generally having remaining maturities of less than five years. The Association's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and mortgage-backed and related securities. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Association's operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, liquidity eligible assets totaled $6.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively. At those dates, the Association's liquidity ratios were 11.8% and 8.2%, respectively, in excess of the 5% minimum regulatory requirement. The Company uses its liquid resources principally to meet ongoing commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and deposit withdrawals, to invest, to fund existing and future loan commitments, to maintain liquidity and to meet operating expenses. At December 31, 1998, the Association had outstanding commitments to extend credit which amounted to $1.1 million. Management believes that loan repayments and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet the Company's foreseeable liquidity needs. At December 31, 1998, the Association had $17.2 million in certificates of deposit due within one year and $12.4 million in savings and checking accounts. Based on past experience, management expects that most of the deposits will be retained or replaced by new deposits. The primary investment activities of the Company are the origination of one- to four- family residential, commercial real estate, one- to four- family construction, land and consumer loans, and the purchase of investment and mortgage-backed securities. During the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company originated loans totaling $8.5 million and $7.1 million, respectively. During those same periods, the Company purchased mortgage-backed securities totaling $2.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively. These activities were funded primarily by deposits and principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities. In connection with its conversion on September 27, 1996 from a federally chartered mutual savings and loan association to a federally chartered stock savings and loan association, the Association's capital structure increased substantially with the issuance of stock and the formation of its holding company, First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. The Company issued 264,506 shares of common stock that resulted in $2,645 of common stock and $2,298,842 of additional paid-in capital net of conversion costs of $345,577. Capital ratios (see Note 21 in the consolidated financial statements) at December 31, 1998 were significantly higher than regulatory minimum requirements. The Association had tangible capital of $3.7 million or 9.88% of total assets, which is approximately $3.2 million above the minimum requirement of 1.5% of total assets. The Association had core capital of $3.7 million or 9.88% of total assets, which is $2.6 million above the minimum leverage ratio of 3.0%. The Association had total risk-based capital of $3.9 million and total risk-weighted assets of $15.8 million, or total capital of 24.81% of risk-weighted assets. This was $2.7 million above the 8.0% requirement. 13 Capability of the Company's Data Processing Hardware to Accommodate the Year 2000 The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in existing computer systems as the millennium (year "2000") approaches. The "year 2000" problem is pervasive and complex, as virtually every computer operation will be affected in some way by the rollover of the two-digit year value of zero. The issue is whether computer systems will properly recognize date-sensitive information when the year changes to 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate erroneous data or cause a system to fail. The Company is utilizing both internal and external resources to identify, correct or reprogram, and test the systems for the "year 2000" compliance. It is anticipated that all reprogramming efforts will be complete March 31, 1999, allowing adequate time for testing. To date, confirmations have been received from the Company's primary processing vendors that plans are being developed to address processing of transactions in the "year 2000". Management has assessed the "year 2000" compliance expense and related potential effect on the Company's earnings, and the board has approved $75,000 to be dedicated to this project which is to be expended during years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999. Recent Accounting Developments SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, supersedes APB opinion No. 15 and AICPA Accounting Interpretation's 1-102 of Opinion No. 15 and is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 31, 1997. It establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. This statement simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share found in APB Opinion No. 15, Earnings per Share, and makes them comparable to international earnings per share standards. It replaces the presentation of primary earnings per share with a presentation of basic earnings per share. It also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per share computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted earnings per share. SFAS No. 129, Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure, supersedes specific disclosure requirements of APB opinions No. 10 and No. 15 and FASB Statement No. 47 and consolidates them in this statement. It is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. This statement continues the previous requirements to disclose certain information about an entity's capital structure found in APB opinions No. 10, Omnibus Opinion - 1996, and No. 15, Earnings per Share, and FASB Statement No. 47, Disclosure of Long-Term Obligations, for entities that were subject to the requirements of those standards. It eliminates the exemption of nonpublic entities from certain disclosure requirements of Opinion No. 15 as provided by FASB Statement No. 21, Suspension of the Reporting of Earnings Per Share and Segment Information of Nonpublic Enterprises. SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1997. It requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as 14 components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. This statement does not require a specific format of that financial statement but requires that an enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the period in that financial statement. An enterprise is required to classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, established standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. This Statement supersedes FASB Statement No. 14, Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise, but retains the requirement to report information about major customers. It amends FASB Statement No. 94, Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries, to remove the special disclosure requirements for previously unconsolidated subsidiaries. This Statement does not apply to nonpublic business enterprises or to not-for-profit organizations. This statement is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. Management believes adoption of SFAS Nos. 128, 129, 130 and 131 will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations, nor will adoption require additional capital resources. Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices The audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These principles generally require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary assets and liabilities of the Company and savings institutions such as the Association are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Company's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates, however, do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation. In a period of rapidly rising interest rates, the liquidity and maturity structure of the Company's assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels. The principal effect of inflation, as distinct from levels of interest rates, on the Company's earnings is in the area of non-interest expense. Expense items such as employee compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment costs may be subject to increases as a result of inflation. An additional effect of inflation is the possible increase in the dollar value of the collateral securing loans made by the Company. The Company is unable to determine the extent, if any, to which the properties securing its loans have appreciated in dollar value due to inflation. 15 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT The Board of Directors First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary Oakdale, Louisiana We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended.

AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting and reporting policies of First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary and the methods of applying those policies conform with generally accepted accounting principles. The accounting and reporting policies and the methods of applying those policies which significantly affect the determination of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows are summarized below. A. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company, First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. (Company) and its fully-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Allen Parish (Association). First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Association effective September 27, 1996. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. B. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowances for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the allowances for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate may change materially in the future. C. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and interest-bearing deposits due from other institutions. For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all of these highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities, when purchased of three months or less to be cash equivalents. 22 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Cash and cash equivalents at December 31 include the following: 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Interest-bearing deposits in other institutions $5,506,432 $1,297,774 Non-interest bearing deposits 812,796 586,468 ---------- ---------- Total $6,319,228 $1,884,242 ========== ========== D. Mortgage-Backed and Related Securities The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 regarding classification of all debt securities and certain equity securities. Mortgage-backed and related securities that management has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using methods approximating the interest method. Other mortgage-backed and related securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on securities available-for-sale are recognized as direct increases or decreases in retained earnings until realized. At December 31, 1998, the Company had no outstanding commitments to sell securities. Gains of $ -0- and $2,826 were realized in 1998 and 1997, respectively on the sale of mortgage-backed and related securities held available-for-sale by using the specific identification method. All sales are made without recourse. Gross unrealized losses in the held-to-maturity portfolio and in the available-for-sale portfolio are as follows: December 31, ----------------------- 1998 1997 Gross Gross Unrealized Unrealized Gain Loss ---------- ---------- Held-to-maturity securities $26,289 $59,266 Available-for-sale securities 12,997 3,460 23 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) E. Loans Receivable Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses, and net deferred loan origination fees and discounts. Discounts on consumer loans are recognized over the lives of the loans using the interest method. A loan (including a loan defined as impaired under SFAS 114) is classified as nonaccrual when the loan becomes 90 days or more past due. Any unpaid interest previously accrued on those loans is reversed from income. Interest income generally is not recognized on specific impaired loans unless the likelihood of further loss is remote. Interest payments received on such loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balances. Interest income on other nonaccrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activity, including those loans which are being specifically monitored by management. Such evaluation, which includes a review of loans for which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the loan classifications discussed above, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, the amount of loans outstanding and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss allowance. Allowances for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral values or the present value of estimated cash flows. The Company applies FASB Statement No. 114 Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that impaired loans that are within the scope of this statement be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or at the loan's market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The Company uses the loan-by-loan measurement method for all loans, however, residential mortgage loans and consumer installment loans are considered to be groups of smaller balance homogenous loans and are collectively evaluated for impairment and are not subject to SFAS No. 114 measurement criteria. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that all contractual amounts due will not be collected in accordance with the terms of the loan. A loan is not deemed 24 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) to be impaired if a delay in receipt of payment is expected to be less than 60 days or if, during a longer period of delay, the Company expects to collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the contractual rate during the period of the delay. Factors considered by management include the property location, economic conditions and any unique circumstances affecting the loan. Due to the composition of the Company's loan portfolio, the fair value of collateral is utilized to measure virtually all of the Company's impaired loans. If the fair value of an impaired loan is less than the related recorded amount, a valuation allowance is established or the writedown is charged against the allowance for loan losses if the impairment is considered to be permanent. FASB Statement No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures, amended SFAS No. 114 to allow a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on impaired loans. The Company has elected to continue to use its existing nonaccrual methods for recognizing interest on impaired loans. F. Loan Origination Fees, Commitment Fees and Related Costs FASB Statement No. 91, Accounting for Non-refundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases, states that loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are normally deferred and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using a method which does not differ materially from the interest method, over the contractual life of the loans, adjusted for estimated prepayments based on the Company's historical prepayment experience. Commitment fees and costs relating to commitments whose likelihood of exercise is remote should be recognized over the commitment period on a straight-line basis. If the commitment is subsequently exercised during the commitment period, the remaining unamortized commitment fee at the time of exercise should be recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment of yield. Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are not deferred at the Company, however, due to immateriality. These fees are recognized in the period collected. The Company does not charge commitment fees. G. Foreclosed Real Estate Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of loan foreclosures are initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair value minus estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure. Costs relating to development and improvement of property are capitalized, whereas costs relating to the holding of property are expensed. 25 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated net realizable value. H. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock is carried at cost due to its lack of marketability and restricted ownership. FHLB stock can be sold back only at its par value and only to FHLB or other member institutions. FHLB stock is evaluated annually for impairment. I. Income Taxes Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable for the current year and include deferred income taxes on temporary differences in the recognition of income and expenses for tax and financial statement purposes, primarily from preparing tax returns on the cash basis of accounting and preparing the financial statements on the accrual basis. Deferred taxes are computed utilizing the method prescribed in FASB Statement 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. J. Premises and Equipment Land is carried at cost. Buildings, furniture, fixtures, and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. Property retired or sold, and the accumulated depreciation is removed from the accounts in the year of sale or retirement. Gains or losses on disposition are taken into income. The Company computes depreciation by use of the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings 40 years Furniture and fixtures 7-10 years Automobiles 5 years For income tax purposes, depreciation of assets acquired prior to January 1, 1981 is calculated on the straight-line method, and depreciation of assets acquired after December 31, 1980 is calculated using the Accelerated Cost Recovery System (ACRS) and Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) of the Internal Revenue Service. Provision is made for deferred income taxes applicable to the difference in depreciation charges. 26 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) K. Deferred Income Interest on loans collected in advance is deferred and is recognized to interest income over the contractual life of the loans. Profits from repossessed real estate sale transactions for which the proceeds were financed by the Company are deferred and recognized to income based upon the amount, composition, and source of the down payment made by the buyer and periodic cash payments by the buyer. L. New Accounting Pronouncements SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share, supersedes APB opinion No. 15 and AICPA Accounting Interpretation's 1-102 of Opinion No. 15 and is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 31, 1997. It establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. This statement simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share found in APB Opinion No. 15, Earnings per Share, and makes them comparable to international earnings per share standards. It replaces the presentation of primary earnings per share with a presentation of basic earnings per share. It also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per share computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted earnings per share. SFAS No. 129, Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure, supersedes specific disclosure requirements of APB opinions No. 10 and No. 15 and FASB Statement No. 47 and consolidates them in this statement. It is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. This statement continues the previous requirements to disclose certain information about an entity's capital structure found in APB opinions No. 10, Omnibus Opinion - 1996, and No. 15, Earnings per Share, and FASB Statement No. 47, Disclosure of Long-Term Obligations, for entities that were subject to the requirements of those standards. It eliminates the exemption of nonpublic entities from certain disclosure requirements of Opinion No. 15 as provided by FASB Statement No. 21, Suspension of the Reporting of Earnings Per Share and Segment Information of Nonpublic Enterprises. 27 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1997. It requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. This statement does not require a specific format of that financial statement but requires that an enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the period in that financial statement. An enterprise is required to classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, established standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. This Statement supersedes FASB Statement No. 14, Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise, but retains the requirement to report information about major customers. It amends FASB Statement No. 94, Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries, to remove the special disclosure requirements for previously unconsolidated subsidiaries. This Statement does not apply to nonpublic business enterprises or to not-for-profit organizations. This statement is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. Management believes adoption of SFAS Nos. 128, 129, 130 and 131 will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations, nor will adoption require additional capital resources. M. Reclassified Items Certain items of the prior years have been reclassified in order to conform to current presentation. 28 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC.

No contributions were made in 1998 and 1997 due to contributions made on behalf of employees to the ESOP plan. 36 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) All employees meeting age and service requirements are eligible to participate in an ESOP. Under the terms of the ESOP, contributions are allocated to participants using a formula based on compensation. Participants vest over five years. In 1996, the ESOP purchased 21,160 shares of Company common stock. The remaining unamortized cost of such shares purchased is reflected as unearned employee benefits in the accompanying balance sheet. During 1998 and 1997, 2,116 shares were allocated to participants each year. The fair value of such shares, $44,833 and $36,385 for 1998 and 1997, respectively, was charged to expense. The fair value of the remaining unallocated shares at December 31, 1998 and 1997 totaled $278,783 and $370,300, respectively. (15) Officer's Deferred Compensation Contract The Company has a deferred compensation contract with one member of the Board of Directors. The agreement provides for payment of equal annual installments over ten years to be made to the director upon retirement or to his beneficiary in the event of death before retirement. The agreement is terminated should the director resign before the stated date of retirement. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, $53,050 and $38,665, respectively, had been accrued as deferred compensation payable. (16) Income Taxes The Company utilizes FASB Statement 109 to account for income taxes. The components of income tax expense for the years ended December 31 are as follows: 1998 1997 -------- -------- Income taxes current: Federal $159,223 $134,956 -------- -------- Deferred taxes due to timing differences (53,720) 12,753 Total income tax expense $105,503 $147,709 ======== ======== 37 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) The total provision for federal income taxes differs from that computed by applying statutory corporate tax rates as follows for the years ended December 31: 1998 1997 ----- ----- Computed at the expected statutory rate 34.0% 34.0% Other (1.8) 2.7 32.2% 36.7% ===== ===== Temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax amounts consist primarily of converting the financial statements from accrual to cash basis for tax purposes and by the excess of tax bad debts over book bad debts since 1987. Amounts for deferred tax liabilities at December 31 are as follows: 1998 1997 -------- -------- Deferred tax assets $ 45,784 $ 26,467 Deferred tax liabilities 130,407 161,865 -------- -------- Net deferred tax liabilities $ 84,623 $135,398 ======== ======== No valuation allowances were recorded against deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1998 and 1997. Under the Internal Revenue Code, the Company is allowed to deduct an experience method bad debt deduction based on actual charge-offs. This deduction is an addition to tax bad debt reserves established for the purpose of absorbing losses. The Act also provides that federal income tax bad debt reserves in excess of the base year reserves will be included in taxable income. The Association had postponed recapture of income from the excess of federal bad debt reserves over base year reserves since 1996. Taxable income for 1998 included $119,038 of recapture of this bad debt reserve, thereby decreasing the deferred tax liability and increasing current taxes by $40,473. 38 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Retained earnings of the Company at December 31, 1998 and 1997 includes approximately $368,500, for which provision for federal income tax has been made. This amount represents allocations of income to bad debt deductions for tax purposes only. Reduction of amounts allocated for purposes other than tax bad debt losses will create income for tax purposes only, which will be subject to the then current corporate income tax rate. (17) Earnings Per Share The Company adopted FAS 128, Earnings Per Share, as of December 31, 1997. Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for basic EPS excludes the weighted average shares unreleased by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") (16,399 and 18,515 shares at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively) and the weighted average unvested shares in the Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP) (8,464 and -0- shares at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively). The effect on diluted EPS of stock option shares outstanding and unvested RRP shares is calculated using the treasury stock method. The following is a reconcilement of the numerator and denominator for basic and diluted Earnings Per Share. Income Shares Per-Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount ----------- ------------- --------- Year Ended December 31, 1998 -------------------------------------- Basic EPS Income available to common stockholders $222,066 247,401 $.90 ==== Effect of dilutive securities Stock options outstanding - - Restricted stock grants - - -------- ------- Diluted EPS Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $222,066 247,401 $.90 ======== ======= ==== 39 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC.

During 1998, the Company issued 2,116 shares of common stock to fund the vested portion of the RRP. The excess of fair value over par value of the common stock issued increased additional paid-in capital by $50,763. The fair value of the shares on the date of award is recognized ratably as compensation expense over the vesting period, which is five years. The grantees of the restricted stock have the right to vote the shares awarded. Dividends on unvested shares are held in trust and distributed when the related shares vest. For the year ended December 31, 1998, the amount included in compensation expense was $50,784. A summary of the changes in restricted stock follows: Unvested Vested Shares Shares Balance, January 1, 1998 - - Approved by the plan 10,580 - Vested (2,116) - Forfeited - - Earned and issued - 2,116 Balance, December 31, 1998 8,464 2,116 ====== ====== 40 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Stock Option Plan In 1998, the Company adopted a stock option plan for the benefit of directors and officers. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the stock option plan was equal to 26,450 shares, or 10.0 percent, of the total number of common shares sold in the Company's initial public offering of its common stock upon the mutual-to-stock conversion of First Allen Parish Bancorp, Inc. The option exercise price cannot be less than the fair value of the underlying common stock as of the date of the option grant and the maximum option term cannot exceed 10 years. The stock options granted to directors and officers in 1998 are exercisable in five equal annual installments. Under APB No. 25, because the exercise price of the Company's stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The following table summarizes the activity related to stock options: Available Options for Grant Outstanding ------- ------- At inception 26,450 - Granted (22,483) - Vested - 4,497 Canceled - - Exercised - - ------- ------- At December 31, 1998 3,967 4,497 ======= ======= The 4,497 vested outstanding options were issued on April 30, 1998 at an exercise price equal to the market value of $24.00 and were exercisable at December 31, 1998. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 1998 was $7.15. In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS 123, Accounting of Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS 123 requires disclosure of the compensation cost for stock-based incentives granted after January 31, 1995, based on the fair value at grant date for awards. Applying SFAS 123 would result in pro forma net income and earnings per share amounts as follows: 1998 -------- Net income As reported $222,066 Pro forma $197,102 Earnings per share As reported - Basic $.90 - Diluted $.90 Pro forma - Basic $.80 - Diluted $.80 41 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) (19) Related Party Transactions In the ordinary course of business, the Company makes loans to its directors, officers, and employees. These loans are made on the same terms as loans to other customers. The activity of such loans outstanding for the years ended December 31 are as follows: 1998 1997 --------- --------- Balance, beginning of year $ 249,429 $ 214,721 --------- --------- Additions 118,266 70,562 Payments (139,395) (35,854) --------- --------- Balance, end of year $ 228,300 $ 249,429 ========= ========= (20) Concentration of Credit The majority of the Company's loans and its standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Company's market area, which is primarily Allen Parish, Louisiana. The Parish is largely a rural area and relies heavily on the agricultural industry and government employment. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in the note on loans receivable as presented earlier in this report. The Company, as a matter of policy, does not extend credit to any borrower or group of related borrowers in excess of its legal lending limit of approximately $584,516. (21) Regulatory Capital Requirements The Association is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Association must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Association's assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Association's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. 42 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Association to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of risk-based capital, as defined in the regulations, to risk-weighted assets, as defined, and of tangible and core capital, as defined, to total assets, as defined. Management believes, as of December 31, 1998, that the Association meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. As of December 31, 1998, the most recent notification from the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), categorized the Association as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Association must maintain minimum total risk-based, tangible and core capital ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category. Tangible Core Risk-based ---------- ---------- ---------- Regulatory capital $3,732,780 $3,732,780 $3,912,280 Minimum capital requirement 566,489 1,132,979 1,261,280 ---------- ---------- ---------- Regulatory capital in excess of of minimum capital requirements $3,166,291 $2,599,801 $2,651,000 ========== ========== ========== Minimum capital requirement 1.5% 3.0% 8.0% ========== ========== ========== The Association's regulatory capital 9.88% 9.88% 24.81% ========== ========== ========== (22) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk/Commitments The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position. The contract or notional amount of those instruments reflect the extent of the Company's involvement in particular classes of financial instruments. 43 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with credit risk. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable; inventory, property, plant, and equipment; and income-producing commercial properties. In addition to undisbursed loan proceeds, outstanding mortgage commitments amounted to: Ranges -------------------------- Variable Interest Commitment Rate Rates Terms --------------------------------------- December 31, 1998 $755,861 8.5% - 10.5% 182 days December 31, 1997 $194,550 8.5% - 9.0% 10-182 days Ranges -------------------------- Fixed Interest Commitment Rate Rates Terms --------------------------------------- December 31, 1998 $343,600 8.5% - 12.0% 182 days December 31, 1997 $314,525 8.0% - 9.0% 120-182 days 44 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The Company had short-term standby letters of credit outstanding of $5,100 and $1,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. (23) Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed herein: Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate their fair value. Securities to be held to maturity and securities available-for-sale - Fair values for investment securities, excluding restricted equity securities, are based on quoted market prices. The carrying values of restricted equity securities approximate fair values. Loans receivable - Fair values for variable and fixed rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Deposit liabilities - The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on the certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. Short-term borrowings - Fair values of borrowed funds are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. Accrued interest - The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values. 45 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Off-balance sheet items - The fair value of these items approximate their contractual amounts. The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments were as follows: December 31, 1998 December 31, 1997 ---------------------- ----------------------- Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Financial assets: Cash and due from banks $6,319,228 $6,319,228 $ 1,884,242 $ 1,884,242 Securities to be held- to-maturity 9,743,993 9,770,282 11,668,946 11,609,680 Securities available- for-sale 6,451,230 6,451,230 5,478,291 5,478,291 Loans 14,896,198 14,886,904 13,645,908 13,495,448 Accrued interest receivable 235,545 235,545 229,363 229,363 Other receivables 43,925 43,925 62,895 62,895 Federal Home Loan Bank stock, at cost 263,000 263,000 259,300 259,300 December 31, 1998 December 31, 1997 ---------------------- ----------------------- Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Financial liabilities: Deposit liabilities $33,553,066 $32,471,617 $28,656,542 $27,732,897 Advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance 20,402 20,402 23,212 23,212 Current federal income taxes payable 24,263 24,263 54,956 54,956 Accrued expenses and other liabilities 141,542 141,542 27,620 27,620 Off-balance sheet items Standby letters of credit 5,100 5,100 1,000 1,000 Commitments to extend credit 1,099,461 1,099,461 509,075 509,075 46 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) (24) Capability of the Company's Data Processing Hardware to Accommodate the Year 2000 (Unaudited) The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in existing computer systems as the millennium (year "2000") approaches. The "year 2000" problem is pervasive and complex, as virtually every computer operation will be affected in some way by the rollover of the two-digit year value of zero. The issue is whether computer systems will properly recognize date-sensitive information when the year changes to 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate erroneous data or cause a system to fail. The Company is utilizing both internal and external resources to identify, correct or reprogram, and test the systems for the "year 2000" compliance. It is anticipated that all reprogramming efforts will be complete March 31, 1999, allowing adequate time for testing. To date, confirmations have been received from the Company's primary processing vendors that plans are being developed to address processing of transactions in the "year 2000". Management has assessed the "year 2000" compliance expense and related potential effect on the Company's earnings, and the board has approved $75,000 to be dedicated to this project which is to be expended during years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999. 47 FIRST ALLEN PARISH BANCORP, INC.
