               SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

  This Annual Report on Form 10-K, other periodic reports filed by Alabama
National BanCorporation (the "Company" or "Alabama National") under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any other written or oral
statements made by or on behalf of Alabama National may include "forward
looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 which reflect Alabama National's current views with respect
to future events and financial performance. Such forward looking statements
are based on general assumptions and are subject to various risks,
uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results to differ
materially from the views, beliefs and projections expressed in such
statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not
limited to:

    (1) Possible changes in economic and business conditions that may affect
  the prevailing interest rates, the prevailing rates of inflation, or the
  amount of growth, stagnation, or recession in the global, U.S., and
  southeastern U.S. economies, the value of investments, collectibility of
  loans and the profitability of business entities;

    (2) Possible changes in monetary and fiscal policies, laws and
  regulations, and other activities of governments, agencies and similar
  organizations;

    (3) The effects of easing of restrictions on participants in the
  financial services industry, such as banks, securities brokers and dealers,
  investment companies and finance companies, and changes evolving from the
  enactment of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, and attendant changes in
  patterns and effects of competition in the financial services industry;

    (4) The cost and other effects of legal and administrative cases and
  proceedings, claims, settlements and judgments; and

    (5) The ability of Alabama National to achieve the expected operating
  results related to the acquired operations of recently-completed and future
  acquisitions (if any), which depends on a variety of factors, including (i)
  the ability of Alabama National to achieve the anticipated cost savings and
  revenue enhancements with respect to the acquired operations, (ii) the
  assimilation of the acquired operations to Alabama National's corporate
  culture, including the ability to instill Alabama National's credit
  practices and efficient approach to the acquired operations, (iii) the
  continued growth of the markets in which Alabama National operates
  consistent with recent historical experience, (iv) the absence of material
  contingencies related to the acquired operations, including asset quality
  and litigation contingencies, and (v) Alabama National's ability to expand
  into new markets and to maintain profit margins in the face of pricing
  pressures.

  The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "project" and similar
expressions signify forward looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on any forward looking statements made by or on behalf of
Alabama National. Any such statement speaks only as of the date the statement

                                    PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

  Alabama National BanCorporation ("Alabama National" or "ANB") is a Delaware
bank holding company with its principal place of business in Birmingham,
Alabama, and its main office located at 1927 First Avenue North, Birmingham,
Alabama 35203 (Telephone Number: (205) 583-3600). Alabama National is
currently the parent of three national banks, National Bank of Commerce of
Birmingham ("NBC") (Birmingham, Alabama and the Birmingham metropolitan area),
Citizens & Peoples Bank, National Association (Escambia County, Florida), and
Community Bank of Naples, National Association (Naples, Florida); three state
member banks, Alabama Exchange Bank (Tuskegee, Alabama), Bank of Dadeville
(Dadeville, Alabama) and First Gulf Bank (Baldwin County, Alabama); and five
state nonmember banks, First American Bank (Decatur/Huntsville, Alabama),
Public Bank (St. Cloud, Florida), Georgia State Bank (Mableton, Georgia),
First Citizens Bank, (Talladega, Alabama) and, effective January 31, 2001,
Peoples State Bank of Groveland (Lake County, Florida) (collectively the
"Banks"). In addition, Alabama National is currently the ultimate parent of
one securities brokerage firm, NBC Securities, Inc. (Birmingham, Alabama); one
receivables factoring company, Corporate Billing, Inc. (Decatur, Alabama); and
one insurance agency, Rankin Insurance, Inc. (Decatur, Alabama).

Recent Developments

 Peoples State Bank of Groveland Merger

  Effective January 31, 2001, Peoples State Bank of Groveland ("Peoples State
Bank"), a Florida state bank headquartered in Groveland, Florida, with
approximately $123 million in total assets as of December 31, 2000, merged
with a newly formed subsidiary of Alabama National (the "Peoples State Bank
Merger"). The terms of the Peoples State Bank Merger are described in that
certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 10, 2000 (the
"Peoples State Bank Merger Agreement"). Pursuant to the Peoples State Bank
Merger, (i) the stockholders of Peoples State Bank became stockholders of
Alabama National, and (ii) Alabama National became the parent stockholder of
Peoples State Bank. The Peoples State Bank Merger was accounted for as a
pooling of interests. Because the Peoples State Bank Merger was completed
after December 31, 2000, the financial information of Peoples State Bank is
not included in Alabama National's financial information for the period ending
December 31, 2000.

  The Peoples State Bank Merger Agreement generally provided, among other
things, that each of the 631,464 outstanding shares of Peoples State Bank
common stock were converted into the right to receive 1.16396 shares of
Alabama National common stock, for a total of 735,000 shares of Alabama
National common stock (excluding fractional shares) issued to former Peoples
State Bank shareholders.

Subsidiary Banks

  Alabama National operates through eleven subsidiary Banks which have a total
of 52 banking offices and one insurance office (where no banking is conducted)
in the states of Alabama, Georgia and Florida. The Banks focus on traditional
consumer, residential mortgage, commercial and real estate construction
lending, and equipment leasing to customers in their market areas. The Banks
also offer a variety of deposit programs to individuals and small businesses
and other organizations at interest rates generally consistent with local
market conditions. NBC offers trust services, investment services and
securities brokerage services. In addition, the Banks offer individual
retirement and KEOGH accounts, safe deposit and night depository facilities
and additional services such as the sale of traveler's checks, money orders
and cashier's checks.

Lending Activities

 General

  Through the Banks, Alabama National offers a range of lending services,
including real estate, consumer and commercial loans, to individuals and small
businesses and other organizations that are located in or conduct a
substantial portion of their business in the Banks' market areas. Alabama
National's total loans, net of unearned

                                       3


interest, at December 31, 2000, were approximately $1.61 billion, or
approximately 79.4% of total earning assets. The interest rates charged on
loans vary with the degree of risk, maturity and amount of the loan and are
further subject to competitive pressures, money market rates, availability of
funds and government regulations. Alabama National has no "foreign loans" or
loans for "highly leveraged transactions," as such terms are defined by
applicable banking regulations.

 Loan Portfolio

  Real Estate Loans. Loans secured by real estate are the primary component of
Alabama National's loan portfolio, constituting approximately $1.1 billion, or
68.2% of total loans, net of unearned interest, at December 31, 2000. The
Banks often take real estate as an additional source of collateral to secure
commercial and industrial loans. Such loans are classified as real estate
loans rather than commercial and industrial loans if the real estate
collateral is considered significant as a secondary source of repayment for
the loan. The Banks' real estate loan portfolio is comprised of commercial and
residential mortgages. Residential mortgages held in the Banks' loan
portfolio, both fixed and variable, are made based upon amortization schedules
of up to 30 years but generally have maturity dates of five years or less. The
Banks' commercial mortgages accrue at either variable or fixed rates. The
variable rates approximate current market rates. Construction loans are made
on a variable rate basis. Origination fees are normally charged for most loans
secured by real estate. The Banks' primary type of residential mortgage loan
is the single-family first mortgage, typically structured with fixed or
adjustable interest rates, based on market conditions. These loans usually
have terms of five years, with payments through the date of maturity generally
based on a 15 or 30 year amortization schedule.

  The Banks originate residential loans for sale into the secondary market.
Such loans are made in accordance with underwriting standards set by the
purchaser of the loan, normally as to loan-to-value ratio, interest rate and
documentation. Such loans are generally made under a commitment to purchase
from a loan purchaser. The Banks generally collect from the borrower or
purchaser a combination of the origination fee, discount points and/or service
release fee. During 2000, the Banks sold approximately $230 million in loans
to such purchasers.

  The Banks' nonresidential mortgage loans include commercial, industrial and
unimproved real estate loans. The Banks generally require nonresidential
mortgage loans to have an 80% loan-to-value ratio and usually underwrite their
commercial loans on the basis of the borrower's cash flow and ability to
service the debt from earnings, rather than on the basis of the value of the
collateral. Terms on construction loans are usually less than twelve months,
and the Banks typically require real estate mortgages and personal guarantees
supported by financial statements and a review of the guarantor's personal
finances.

  Consumer Loans. Consumer lending includes installment lending to individuals
in the Banks' market areas and generally consists of loans to purchase
automobiles and other consumer durable goods. Consumer loans constituted $76.0
million, or 4.7% of Alabama National's loan portfolio at December 31, 2000.
Consumer loans are underwritten based on the borrower's income, current debt
level, past credit history and collateral. Consumer rates are both variable
and fixed, with terms negotiable. Terms generally range from one to five years
depending on the nature and condition of the collateral. Periodic
amortization, generally monthly, is typically required.

  Commercial and Financial Loans. The Banks make loans for commercial purposes
in various lines of business. These loans are typically made on terms up to
five years at fixed or variable rates. The loans are secured by various types
of collateral including accounts receivable, inventory or, in the case of
equipment loans, the financed equipment. The Banks attempt to reduce their
credit risk on commercial loans by underwriting the loan based on the
borrower's cash flow and its ability to service the debt from earnings, and by
limiting the loan to value ratio. Historically, the Banks have typically
loaned up to 80% on loans secured by accounts receivable, up to 65% on loans
secured by inventory, and up to 80% on loans secured by equipment. The Banks
also make some unsecured commercial loans and offer equipment leasing.
Commercial and financial loans constituted $259.8 million, or 16.1% of Alabama
National's loan portfolio at December 31, 2000. Interest rates are negotiable
based upon the borrower's financial condition, credit history, management
stability and collateral.

 Credit Procedures and Review

  Loan Approval. Certain credit risks are inherent in making loans. These
include prepayment risks, risks resulting from uncertainties in the future
value of collateral, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry
conditions and risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers. In
particular, longer maturities increase the risk that economic conditions will
change and adversely affect collectibility.

  Alabama National attempts to minimize loan losses through various means and
uses standardized underwriting criteria. Alabama National has established a
standardized loan policy for all of the Banks that may be modified based on
local market conditions. In particular, on larger credits, Alabama National
generally relies on the cash flow of a debtor as the source of repayment and
secondarily on the value of the underlying collateral. In addition, Alabama
National attempts to utilize shorter loan terms in order to reduce the risk of
a decline in the value of such collateral.

  Alabama National addresses repayment risks by adhering to internal credit
policies and procedures which all of the Banks have adopted. These policies
and procedures include officer and customer lending limits, a multi-layered
loan approval process for larger loans, documentation examination and follow-
up procedures for any exceptions to credit policies. The point in each Bank's
loan approval process at which a loan is approved depends on the size of the
borrower's credit relationship with such Bank. Each of the lending officers at
each of the Banks has the authority to approve loans up to an approved loan
authority amount as approved by each Bank's Board of Directors. Loans in
excess of the highest loan authority amount at each Bank must be approved by
the Alabama National Executive Vice President in charge of credit
administration. In addition, loans in excess of a particular loan officer's
approval authority must be approved by a more senior officer at the particular
Bank, the loan committee at such Bank, or both.

  Loan Review. Alabama National maintains a continuous loan review system for
each of NBC and First American Bank and a scheduled review system for the
other Banks. Under this system, each loan officer is directly responsible for
monitoring the risk in his portfolio and is required to maintain risk ratings
for each credit assigned. The risk rating system incorporates the basic
regulatory rating system as set forth in the applicable regulatory asset
quality examination procedures.

  Alabama National's Loan Review Department ("LRD"), which is wholly
independent of the lending function, serves as a validation of each loan
officer's risk monitoring and rating system. LRD's primary function is to
provide the Board of Directors of each Bank with a thorough understanding of
the credit quality of such Bank's loan portfolio. Other review requirements
are in place to provide management with early warning systems for problem
credits as well as compliance with stated lending policies. LRD's findings are
reported, along with an asset quality review, to the Alabama National Board of
Directors at each bi-monthly meeting.

Deposits

  The principal sources of funds for the Banks are core deposits, consisting
of demand deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, money market
accounts, savings deposits and certificates of deposit. Transaction accounts
include checking and negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) accounts which
customers use for cash management and which provide the Banks with a source of
fee income and cross-marketing opportunities, as well as a low-cost source of
funds. Time and savings accounts also provide a relatively stable and low-cost
source of funding. The largest source of funds for the Banks are certificates
of deposit. Certificates of deposit in excess of $100,000 are held primarily
by customers in the Banks' market areas.

  Deposit rates are reviewed weekly by senior management of each of the Banks.
Management believes that the rates the Banks offer are competitive with those
offered by other institutions in the Banks' market areas. Alabama National
focuses on customer service to attract and retain deposits.

Investment Services

  NBC operates an investment department devoted primarily to handling
correspondent banks' investment needs. Services provided by the investment
department include the sale of securities, asset/liability consulting,
safekeeping and bond accounting.

                                       5


Securities Brokerage Division

  NBC also has a wholly owned subsidiary, NBC Securities, Inc. ("NBC
Securities"), that is licensed as a broker-dealer. Started in 1995, NBC
Securities provides investment services to individuals and institutions. These
services include the sale of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, annuities, margin
loans, other insurance products and financial planning. NBC Securities has
investment advisers in Birmingham, Decatur and Gulf Shores, Alabama; Naples
and Pensacola, Florida; and Mableton, Georgia.

Trust Division

  NBC operates a trust division that manages the assets of both corporate and
individual customers located primarily in the Birmingham, Alabama market. The
division's corporate trust services include managing and servicing retirement
plan accounts such as pension, profit sharing and 401(k) plans.

Mortgage Lending Division

  NBC's mortgage lending division makes home loans to individuals throughout
the State of Alabama. The majority of these loans are sold to corporate
investors, who also service the loans.

Insurance Services Division

  Alabama National's First American Bank subsidiary purchased an existing
insurance company, Rankin Insurance, Inc., in 1999. Rankin Insurance is a full
service independent property and casualty insurance agency located in Decatur,
Alabama.

Competition

  The Banks encounter strong competition in making loans, acquiring deposits
and attracting customers for investment and trust services. Competition among
financial institutions is based upon interest rates offered on deposit
accounts, interest rates charged on loans, other credit and service charges
relating to loans, the quality and scope of the services rendered, the
convenience of banking facilities and, in the case of loans to commercial
borrowers, relative lending limits. The Banks compete with other commercial
banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies, mutual
funds, insurance companies, brokerage and investment banking companies, and
other financial intermediaries operating in the markets served by the Banks.
Many of these competitors, some of which are affiliated with large bank
holding companies, have substantially greater resources and lending limits,
and may offer certain services that the Banks do not currently provide. In
addition, many of Alabama National's non-bank competitors are not subject to
the same extensive federal regulations that govern bank or thrift holding
companies and federally insured banks or thrifts.

  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, effective March 11, 2000, permits bank holding
companies to become financial holding companies and thereby affiliate with
securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that
are financial in nature. See "Supervision and Regulation." Under the Act,
securities firms and insurance companies that elect to become financial
holding companies may acquire banks and other financial institutions. The
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which represents the most sweeping reform of financial
services regulation in over sixty years, may significantly change the
competitive environment in which Alabama National and the Banks conduct
business. At this time, however, it is not possible to predict the full effect
that the Act will have on Alabama National. One consequence may be increased
competition from large financial services companies that will be permitted to
provide many types of financial services, including bank products, to their
customers.

  The financial services industry is also likely to become more competitive as
further technological advances enable more companies to provide financial
services. These technological advances may diminish the importance of
depository institutions and other financial intermediaries in the transfer of
funds between parties.

                                       6


  The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the
"IBBEA") authorized bank holding companies to acquire banks and other bank
holding companies without geographic limitations beginning September 30, 1995.
In addition, beginning on June 1, 1997, the IBBEA authorized interstate
mergers and consolidations of existing banks, provided that neither bank's
home state had opted out of interstate branching by May 31, 1997. The States
of Alabama, Georgia and Florida have opted in to interstate branching.
Interstate branching provides that once a bank has established branches in a
state through an interstate merger, the bank may establish and acquire
additional branches at any location in the state where any bank involved in
the interstate merger could have established or acquired branches under
applicable federal or state law.

  Size gives the larger banks certain advantages in competing for business
from large corporations. These advantages include higher lending limits and
the ability to offer services in other areas of Alabama and the southeast
region. Some of Alabama National's competitors still maintain substantially
greater resources and lending limits than Alabama National. As a result,
Alabama National has not generally attempted to compete for the banking
relationships of large corporations, and generally concentrates its efforts on
small to medium-sized businesses and individuals to which Alabama National
believes it can compete effectively by offering quality, personal service.
However, management believes it may be able to compete more effectively for
the business of some large corporations, given its current growth pattern.

  Management believes that the Banks' commitment to their respective primary
market areas, as well as their commitment to quality and personalized banking
services, are factors that contribute to the Banks' competitiveness.
Management believes that Alabama National's decentralized community banking
strategy positions the Banks to compete successfully in their market areas.

Market Areas and Growth Strategy

  Through NBC, Alabama National serves the metropolitan Birmingham market,
which includes portions of Jefferson, Shelby and St. Clair Counties. Alabama
National's First American Bank subsidiary serves Morgan, Limestone and Madison
Counties in north Alabama. First American's largest market presence is in
Decatur, Alabama, which has demonstrated a growing economic base in recent
years. First American also acquired two branches in Huntsville, Alabama from
another bank holding company during 2000. Through First Gulf Bank, Alabama
National serves Baldwin County, Alabama. Located between Mobile, Alabama and
Pensacola, Florida, Baldwin County has a broad base of economic activity in
the retail and service, agriculture, seafood, tourism and manufacturing
industries. Baldwin County includes the popular tourism and retirement resort
communities of Gulf Shores and Fairhope. Shelby, Baldwin and St. Clair
Counties have been named in statistical surveys as three of the fastest
growing counties in Alabama. In 1997, Alabama National expanded outside of
Alabama with the opening of Citizens & Peoples Bank, N.A. in Escambia County,
Florida. In 1998, Alabama National further expanded its presence in markets
outside of Alabama with two acquisitions in Florida and one in Georgia. Public
Bank is located in the fast-growing greater Orlando area, with offices in
Altamonte Springs, Kissimmee and St. Cloud, Florida. Community Bank of Naples,
N.A., located in Collier County, Florida, and Georgia State Bank, located in
Cobb County and Paulding County, Georgia, are located in markets that are
among the fastest growing in their respective states. Effective January 31,
2001, Alabama National expanded its presence in the greater-Orlando area with
the acquisition of Peoples State Bank of Groveland ("Peoples State Bank").
Peoples State Bank serves customers in the communities of Groveland, Leesburg,
and Clermont, Florida. The other Banks, First Citizens, Alabama Exchange Bank
and Bank of Dadeville, are located in non-metropolitan areas. Each of these
three Banks, while experiencing minimal growth due to market growth that has
not been significant, typically operates at a high level of profitability. As
a result, these Banks tend to produce capital for growth in many of the high
growth markets served by the other Banks. Alabama National's strategy is to
focus on growth in profitability for these non-metropolitan banks, since
market growth has not been as significant.

  Due to continuing consolidation within the banking industry, as well as in
the Southeastern United States, Alabama National may in the future seek to
combine with other banks or thrifts (or their holding companies) that may be
of smaller, equal or greater size than Alabama National. Alabama National
currently intends to concentrate on acquisitions of additional banks or
thrifts (or their holding companies) which operate in attractive

                                       7


market areas in Alabama, Florida and Georgia. In addition to price and terms,
the factors considered by Alabama National in determining the desirability of
a business acquisition or combination are financial condition, asset quality,
earnings potential, quality of management, market area and competitive
environment.

  In addition to expansion through combinations with other banks or thrifts,
Alabama National intends to continue to expand where possible through growth
of its existing banks in their respective market areas. During 1998, NBC
formed a commercial leasing division which currently focuses on machinery and
equipment leases to business customers. Also, Alabama National is exploring
expansion into lines of business closely related to banking and will pursue
such expansion if it believes such lines could be profitable without causing
undue risk to Alabama National. During 1999, First American Bank acquired
Rankin Insurance, Inc., a full service independent property and casualty
insurance agency located in Decatur, Alabama. While Alabama National plans to
continue its growth as described above, there is no assurance that its efforts
will be successful.

Employees

  As of December 31, 2000, Alabama National and the Banks together had
approximately 835 full-time equivalent employees. None of these employees is a
party to a collective bargaining agreement. Alabama National considers its
relations with its employees to be good.

Supervision and Regulation

  Alabama National and the Banks are subject to state and federal banking laws
and regulations which impose specific requirements and restrictions on, and
provide for general regulatory oversight with respect to, virtually all
aspects of operations. These laws and regulations are generally intended to
protect depositors, not stockholders. To the extent that the following summary
describes statutory or regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the particular statutory and regulatory provisions. Any change
in applicable laws or regulations may have a material effect on the business
and prospects of Alabama National.

  Beginning with the enactment of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery
and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") and following in December 1991 with the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Act ("FDICIA"), numerous additional
regulatory requirements have been placed on the banking industry in the past
ten years, and additional changes have been proposed. The operations of
Alabama National and the Banks may be affected by legislative changes and the
policies of various regulatory authorities. Alabama National is unable to
predict the nature or the extent of the effect on its business and earnings
that fiscal or monetary policies, economic control, or new federal or state
legislation may have in the future.

  As a bank holding company, Alabama National is subject to the regulation and
supervision of the Federal Reserve. The Banks are subject to supervision and
regulation by applicable state and federal banking agencies, including the
Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC") and
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). The Banks are also
subject to various requirements and restrictions under federal and state law,
including requirements to maintain allowances against deposits, restrictions
on the types and amounts of loans that may be granted and the interest that
may be charged thereon, and limitations on the types of investments that may
be made and the types of services that may be offered. Various consumer laws
and regulations also affect the operations of the Banks. In addition to the
impact of regulation, commercial banks are affected significantly by the
actions of the Federal Reserve as it attempts to control the money supply and
credit availability in order to influence the economy.

  Pursuant to the IBBEA, bank holding companies from any state may now acquire
banks located in any other state, subject to certain conditions, including
concentration limits. As of June 1, 1997, a bank may establish branches across
state lines by merging with a bank in another state (unless applicable state
law prohibits such interstate mergers), provided certain conditions are met. A
bank may also establish a de novo branch in a state in which the bank does not
maintain a branch if that state expressly permits such interstate de novo
branching and certain other conditions are met.


                                       8


  There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding
companies and their depository institution subsidiaries by federal law and
regulatory policy that are designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the
depositors of such depository institutions and to the FDIC insurance fund in
the event the depository institution becomes in danger of default or is in
default. For example, under a policy of the Federal Reserve with respect to
bank holding company operations, a bank holding company is required to serve
as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions
and commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it
might not do so absent such policy. In addition, the "cross-guarantee"
provisions of federal law require insured depository institutions under common
control to reimburse the FDIC for any loss suffered or reasonably anticipated
as a result of the default of a commonly controlled insured depository
institution or for any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly
controlled insured depository institution in danger of default.

  The federal banking agencies have broad powers under current federal law to
take prompt corrective action to resolve problems of insured depository
institutions. The extent of these powers depends upon whether the institutions
in question are "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized,"
"undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically
undercapitalized" as such terms are defined under regulations issued by each
of the federal banking agencies. In general, the agencies measure capital
adequacy within a framework that makes capital requirements sensitive to the
risk profiles of individual banking companies. The guidelines define capital
as either Tier 1 (primarily common shareholders' equity) or Tier 2 (certain
debt instruments and a portion of the allowance for loan losses). Alabama
National and the Banks are subject to a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio (Tier 1
capital to risk-weighted assets) of 4%, a total capital ratio (Tier 1 plus
Tier 2 to risk-weighted assets) of 8% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 to
average quarterly assets) of 3%. To be considered a "well capitalized"
institution, the Tier 1 capital ratio, the total capital ratio, and the Tier 1
leverage ratio must equal or exceed 6%, 10% and 5%, respectively.

  The Banks are subject to the provisions of Section 23A of the Federal
Reserve Act, which place limits on the amount of loans or extensions of credit
to, investments in or certain other transactions with affiliates, and on the
amount of advances to third parties collateralized by the securities or
obligations of affiliates. In general, the Banks' "affiliates" are Alabama
National and Alabama National's non-bank subsidiaries.

  The Banks are also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the Federal
Reserve Act that, among other things, prohibit a bank from engaging in certain
transactions with affiliates unless the transactions are on terms
substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the bank, as those
prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated
companies.

  The Banks are also subject to certain restrictions on extensions of credit
to executive officers, directors, certain principal stockholders and their
related interests. Such extensions of credit (i) must be made on substantially
the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing
at the time for comparable transactions with third parties and (ii) must not
involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable
features.

  The Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") requires that, in connection with
examinations of financial institutions within their respective jurisdictions,
the Federal Reserve, the FDIC or the OCC shall evaluate the record of the
financial institutions in meeting the credit needs of their local communities,
including low and moderate income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and
sound operation of those institutions. The CRA does not establish specific
lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it limit
an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services that
it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the
CRA. These factors are considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions and
applications to open a branch or facility. The CRA also requires all
institutions to make public disclosure of their CRA ratings. Each of the Banks
received outstanding or satisfactory ratings in its most recent evaluation.

  There are various legal and regulatory limits on the extent to which the
Banks may pay dividends or otherwise supply funds to Alabama National. In
addition, federal and state regulatory agencies also have the authority to
prevent a bank or bank holding company from paying a dividend or engaging in
any other activity that, in the opinion of the agency, would constitute an
unsafe or unsound practice.

                                       9


  FDIC regulations require that management report on its responsibility for
preparing its institution's financial statements and for establishing and
maintaining an internal control structure and procedures for financial
reporting and compliance with designated laws and regulations concerning
safety and soundness.

  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, effective March 11, 2000, permits bank holding
companies to become financial holding companies and thereby affiliate with
securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that
are financial in nature. A bank holding company may become a financial holding
company by filing a declaration if each of its subsidiary banks is well
capitalized under the FDICIA prompt corrective action provisions, is well
managed, and has at least a satisfactory rating under the CRA. No regulatory
approval will be required for a financial holding company to acquire a
company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in activities that
are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in
nature, as determined by the Federal Reserve.

  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act broadly defines "financial in nature" to include
securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds
and investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; merchant banking;
and activities that the Federal Reserve has determined to be closely related
to banking. The Act also permits the Federal Reserve, in consultation with the
Department of Treasury, to determine that other activities are "financial in
nature" and therefore permissible for financial holding companies. A national
bank also may engage, subject to limitations on investment, in activities that
are financial in nature (other than insurance underwriting, insurance company
portfolio investment, merchant banking, real estate development and real
estate investment) through a financial subsidiary of the bank, if the bank is
well capitalized, well managed and has at least a satisfactory CRA rating.
Subsidiary banks of a financial holding company or national banks with
financial subsidiaries must continue to be well capitalized and well managed
in order to continue to engage in activities that are financial in nature
without regulatory actions or restrictions, which could include divestiture of
the financial subsidiary or subsidiaries. In addition, a financial holding
company or a bank may not acquire a company that is engaged in activities that
are financial in nature unless each of the subsidiary banks of the financial
holding company or the bank at issue has a CRA rating of satisfactory or
better.

  The Act preserves the role of the Federal Reserve as the umbrella supervisor
for holding companies while at the same time incorporating a system of
functional regulation designed to take advantage of the strengths of the
various federal and state regulators. In particular, the Act replaces the
broad exemption from Securities and Exchange Commission regulation that banks
previously enjoyed with more limited exemptions, and it reaffirms that states
are the regulators for the insurance activities of all persons, including
federally-chartered banks.

  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act also establishes a minimum federal standard of
financial privacy. In general, the applicable regulations issued by the
various federal regulatory agencies prohibit affected financial institutions
(including banks, insurance agencies and broker/dealers) from sharing
information about their customers with non-affiliated third parties unless (1)
the financial institution has first provided a privacy notice to the customer;
(2) the financial institution has given the customer an opportunity to opt out
of the disclosure; and (3) the customer has not opted out after being given a
reasonable opportunity to do so. Compliance with the notice and other
requirements under the regulations is required by July 1, 2001.

dividends to Alabama National. The Banks are subject to state and federal

million in the year ended December 31, 2000, from $22.3 million for the year
ended December 31, 1999. Return on average assets during 2000 was 1.18%,
compared with 1.26% during 1999, and return on average equity was 16.47%
during 2000, compared with 16.28% during 1999.

  Net interest income increased $8.6 million, or 12.9%, to $75.0 million in
2000 from $66.4 million in 1999, as interest income increased by $35.7 million
and interest expense increased $27.2 million. The increase in net interest
income is primarily attributable to a $284.6 million increase in average loans
to $1.5 billion during 2000, from $1.2 billion in 1999, as a result of
management emphasis on loan growth. In general, loans are Alabama National's
highest yielding earning asset. The increased interest expense is primarily
attributable to an increase in average time deposits of $195.1 million to
$807.3 million in 2000, from $612.3 million in 1999 and an increase in the
interest rate paid on time deposits of 77 basis points, to 6.01% in 2000, from
5.24% in 1999. Also, average long-term and short-term debt increased a
combined $70.5 million to $154.5 million during 2000, from $84.0 million in
1999. The increases in the above liability categories are due to Alabama
National's need to fund loan growth. These funding sources generally bear
higher interest rates than interest-bearing transaction accounts, resulting in
higher interest expense.

  Alabama National's net interest spread and net interest margin were 3.43%
and 3.98%, respectively, in 2000, each decreasing by 20 basis points from
1999. These decreases resulted because the rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities increased more rapidly than the yield earned on average loans due
to a shift in Alabama National's funding mix. During 2000, loans grew more
rapidly than lower cost deposits, causing Alabama National to rely upon more
costly funding sources such as Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and brokered
certificate of deposits.

  Alabama National recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.0 million during
each of 2000 and 1999. Management believes that both loan loss experience and
asset quality indicate that the allowance for loan losses is maintained at an
adequate level. Alabama National's allowance for loan losses as a percentage
of period-end loans (excluding loans held for sale) was 1.30% at December 31,
2000, compared with 1.37% at December 31, 1999. The allowance for loan losses
as a percentage of period-end nonperforming assets was 446.74% at December 31,
2000, compared with 373.85% at December 31, 1999. Alabama National experienced
net charge-offs of $604,000 in 2000, equating to a ratio of net charge-offs to
average loans of 0.04% compared with net charge-offs of $426,000 in 1999,
equating to a ratio of net charge-offs to average loans of 0.04%. See
"Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses."

  Noninterest income, including net securities gains and losses, increased
$2.1 million, or 6.9%, to $32.7 million in 2000, compared with $30.6 million
in 1999. Alabama National experienced revenue decreases in its investment
services and mortgage lending divisions of $1.2 million, or 11.5%, to $9.4
million in 2000 from $10.6 million in 1999. The securities brokerage division
experienced a revenue increase of $1.7 million, or 46.0%, to $5.4 million in
2000, from $3.7 million in 1999. The commissions generated by the insurance
division totaled $2.1 million in 2000 compared to $1.1 million in 1999. The
1999 commission revenue only includes seven months of activity as the division
was acquired in May 1999. Fees generated by the trust division increased by
$89,000 in 2000, or 4.1%, to $2.3 million. Service charges on deposit accounts
increased by $256,000, or 3.4%, to $7.7 million in 2000 from $7.5 million in
1999. Earnings on bank owned life insurance totaled $2.0 million in 2000
compared with $1.5 million in 1999. The increase reflects earnings on a larger
bank owned life insurance asset base due to reinvestment of policy earnings
and additional investments in bank owned life insurance policies during 2000.
Noninterest income for 1999 includes a gain of $819,000 from the curtailment
of Alabama National's defined benefit pension plan, a gain of $249,000 from
non-recurring sales of assets and a securities gain of $190,000. Excluding
these non-recurring items, Alabama National's noninterest income increased
$3.4 million, or 11.6%, in 2000 versus 1999. Noninterest expense increased
$7.9 million, or 12.7%, to $70.4 million in 2000, compared with $62.5 million
during 1999. See "Noninterest Income and Expense."

                                      17


  Income before the provision for income taxes increased $2.7 million, or
8.4%, to $35.3 million in 2000, from $32.5 million in 1999. Net income totaled
$24.4 million in 2000, an increase of $2.1 million, or 9.5%, compared to $22.3
million during 1999.

 Year ended December 31, 1999, compared with year ended December 31, 1998

  Alabama National's net income increased by $4.9 million, or 28.2%, to $22.3
million in the year ended December 31, 1999, from $17.4 million in the year
ended December 31, 1998. Return on average assets during 1999 was 1.26%,
compared with 1.10% during 1998, and return on average equity was 16.28%
during 1999, compared with 13.81% during 1998.

  Net interest income increased $7.3 million, or 12.2%, to $66.4 million in
1999 from $59.1 million in 1998, as interest income increased by $10.0 million
and interest expense increased $2.7 million. The increase in net interest
income is primarily attributable to a $193.3 million increase in average loans
to $1.2 billion during 1999, from $1.0 billion in 1998, as a result of
management emphasis on loan growth. In general, loans are Alabama National's
highest yielding earning asset. The increased interest expense is primarily
attributable to an increase in average time deposits of $71.1 million to
$612.3 million in 1999, from $541.1 million in 1998 and an increase in average
long-term debt to $58.4 million in 1999, from $30.5 million in 1998, an
increase of $27.9 million. The increases are due to Alabama National's need to
fund loan growth and these funding sources generally bear higher interest
rates than interest-bearing transaction accounts.

  Alabama National's net interest spread and net interest margin were 3.63%
and 4.18%, respectively, in 1999, decreasing by 4 and 6 basis points,
respectively, from 1998. These slight decreases reflect declining yields on
average loans that exceeded the decline in cost of interest-bearing
liabilities, attributable to increased competition from banks and other
financial institutions.

  Alabama National recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.0 million during
1999 compared with $1.8 million one year ago. Management believes that both
loan loss experience and asset quality indicate that the allowance for loan
losses is maintained at an adequate level. Alabama National's allowance for
loan losses as a percentage of period-end loans (excluding loans held for
sale) was 1.37% at December 31, 1999, compared with 1.52% at December 31,
1998, and the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of period-end
nonperforming assets was 373.85% at December 31, 1999, compared with 271.6% at
December 31, 1998. Alabama National experienced net charge-offs of $426,000 in
1999 equating to a ratio of net charge-offs to average loans of 0.04% compared
with net charge-offs of $100,000 in 1998 equating to a ratio of net charge-
offs to average loans of 0.01%. See "Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses."

  Noninterest income, including net securities gains and losses, increased
$1.2 million, or 4.1%, to $30.6 million in 1999, compared with $29.4 million
in 1998. Alabama National experienced revenue decreases in its investment
services and mortgage lending divisions of $2.9 million, or 21.5%, to $10.6
million in 1999 from $13.5 million in 1998. During 1999, the securities
brokerage division experienced an increase in revenue of $1.4 million, or
60.7%, to $3.7 million. Service charges on deposit accounts increased by
$220,000, or 3.0%, to $7.5 million in 1999 from $7.3 million in 1998. Earnings
on bank owned life insurance policies totaled $1.5 million in 1999 compared
with $1.2 million, representing an increase of 28.9%. Alabama National's newly
acquired insurance division recorded revenue of $1.1 million during 1999.
During 1999, Alabama National also recognized a gain of $819,000 on the
curtailment of its defined benefit pension plan. Non-recurring sales of assets
resulted in gains of $249,000 in 1999 compared to $247,000 in 1998.
Noninterest expense increased $1.3 million, or 2.1%, to $62.5 million during
1999, compared with $61.2 million during 1998. See "Noninterest Income and
Expense."

  Income before the provision for income taxes increased $7.0 million, or
27.3%, to $32.5 million in 1999, from $25.5 million in 1998. Net income
increased $4.9 million during 1999.

Net Interest Income

  The largest component of Alabama National's net income is its net interest
income--the difference between the income earned on assets and interest paid
on deposits and borrowed funds used to support its assets. Net interest income
is determined by the yield earned on Alabama National's earning assets and
rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities, the relative amounts of
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the maturity and repricing
characteristics of its earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net
interest income divided by average earning assets represents the Alabama
National's net interest margin.

(1) Average loans include nonaccrual loans. All loans and deposits are
    domestic.

(2) Tax equivalent adjustments are based on the assumed rate of 34%, and do
    not give effect to the disallowance for Federal income tax purposes of
    interest expense related to certain tax-exempt assets.

(3)  Fees in the amount of $3,247,000, $3,002,000, and $3,273,000 are included
     in interest and fees on loans for 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

                                      20


  During 2000, Alabama National experienced an increase in net interest income
of $8.6 million, or 12.9%, to $75.0 million, compared with $66.4 million in
1999. Net interest income increased despite a decrease in the net interest
spread of 20 basis points to 3.43% in 2000 from 3.63% in 1999, and a decrease
in the net interest margin of 20 basis points to 3.98% in 2000, compared with
4.18% in 1999. Because the relative yield on loans exceeds that of all other
earnings assets, the primary reason for the increased net interest income was
a 23.7% increase in average loan volume. The decline in net interest spread
and net interest margin resulted because the rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities increased more rapidly than the yield earned on average loans, due
to Alabama National's reliance on more costly funding sources. Alabama
National's average liabilities in 2000 included more interest bearing
liabilities than in 1999. During 2000, net average earning assets increased by
$297.8 million, or 18.8%, to $1.89 billion from $1.59 billion in 1999. The
major components of this increase included average loans, which increased
$284.6 million, or 23.7%, to $1.49 billion in 2000 from $1.20 billion in 1999,
and securities, which increased $23.2 million, or 7.0%, to $354.2 million in
2000 from $331.0 million in 1999.

 Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income

  The following table sets forth, on a taxable equivalent basis, the effect
which varying levels of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and
the applicable rates had on changes in net interest income for 2000 and 1999.
For purposes of this table, changes which are not solely attributable to
volume or rate are allocated to volume and rate on a pro rata basis.

Interest Sensitivity and Market Risk

 Interest Sensitivity

  Alabama National monitors and manages the pricing and maturity of its assets
and liabilities in order to diminish the potential adverse impact that changes
in interest rates could have on net interest income. The principal monitoring
technique employed by Alabama National is simulation analysis, which technique
is augmented by "gap" analysis.

  In simulation analysis, Alabama National reviews each individual asset and
liability category and their projected behavior in various different interest
rate environments. These projected behaviors are based upon management's past
experiences and upon current competitive environments, including the various
environments in the different markets in which Alabama National competes.
Using this projected behavior and differing rate scenarios as inputs, the
simulation analysis generates as output a projection of net interest income.
Alabama National also periodically verifies the validity of this approach by
comparing actual results with those that were projected in previous models.
See "--Market Risk."

  Another technique used by Alabama National in interest rate management is
the measurement of the interest sensitivity "gap," which is the positive or
negative dollar difference between assets and liabilities that are subject to
interest rate repricing within a given period of time. Interest rate
sensitivity can be managed by repricing assets and liabilities, selling
securities available for sale, replacing an asset or liability at maturity or
by adjusting the interest rate during the life of an asset or liability.

  Alabama National evaluates interest sensitivity risk and then formulates
guidelines regarding asset generation and repricing, and sources and prices of
off-balance sheet commitments in order to decrease interest sensitivity risk.
Alabama National uses computer simulations to measure the net income effect of
various interest rate scenarios. The modeling reflects interest rate changes
and the related impact on net income over specified periods of time.

  The following table illustrates Alabama National's interest rate sensitivity
at December 31, 2000, assuming the relevant assets and liabilities are
collected and paid, respectively, based upon historical experience rather than
their stated maturities.

  Alabama National generally benefits from increasing market rates of interest
when it has an asset-sensitive gap and generally benefits from decreasing
market interest rates when it is liability sensitive. Alabama National is
liability sensitive throughout one year after three months. The analysis
presents only a static view of the timing and repricing opportunities, without
taking into consideration that changes in interest rates do not affect all
assets and liabilities equally. For example, rates paid on a substantial
portion of core deposits may change contractually within a relatively short
time frame, but those are viewed by management as significantly less interest
sensitive than market-based rates such as those paid on non-core deposits. For
this and other reasons, management relies more upon the simulation analysis
(as noted above) in managing interest rate risk. Accordingly, management
believes that a liability-sensitive gap position is not as indicative of
Alabama National's true interest sensitivity

                                      23


as it would be for an organization which depends to a greater extent on
purchased funds to support earning assets. Net interest income may be impacted
by other significant factors in a given interest rate environment, including
changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities.

 Market Risk

  Alabama National's earnings are dependent on its net interest income which
is the difference between interest income earned on all earning assets,
primarily loans and securities, and interest paid on all interest bearing
liabilities, primarily deposits. Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse
changes in market prices and rates. Alabama National's market risk arises
primarily from inherent interest rate risk in its lending, investing and
deposit gathering activities. Alabama National seeks to reduce its exposure to
market risk through actively monitoring and managing its interest rate risk.
Management relies upon static "gap" analysis to determine the degree of
mismatch in the maturity and repricing distribution of interest earning assets
and interest bearing liabilities which quantifies, to a large extent, the
degree of market risk inherent in Alabama National's balance sheet. Gap
analysis is further augmented by simulation analysis to evaluate the impact of
varying levels of prevailing interest rates and the sensitivity of specific
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities to changes in those prevailing
rates. Simulation analysis consists of evaluating the impact on net interest
income given changes from 200 basis points below to 200 basis points above the
current prevailing rates. Management makes certain assumptions as to the
effect varying levels of interest rates have on certain earning assets and
interest bearing liabilities, which assumptions consider both historical
experience and consensus estimates of outside sources.

  With respect to the primary earning assets, loans and securities, certain
features of individual types of loans and specific securities introduce
uncertainty as to their expected performance at varying levels of interest
rates. In some cases, imbedded options exist whereby the borrower may elect to
repay the obligation at any time. These imbedded prepayment options make
anticipating the performance of those instruments difficult given changes in
prevailing rates. At December 31, 2000, mortgage backed securities with a
carrying value totaling $219.9 million, or 9.8% of total assets and
essentially every underlying loan, net of unearned income, (totaling
$1.61 billion, or 72.0% of total assets), carry such imbedded options.
Management believes that assumptions used in its simulation analysis about the
performance of financial instruments with such imbedded options are
appropriate. However, the actual performance of these financial instruments
may differ from management's estimates due to several factors, including the
diversity and sophistication of the customer base, the general level of
prevailing interest rates and the relationship to their historical levels, and
general economic conditions. The difference between those assumptions and
actual results, if significant, could cause the actual results to differ from
those indicated by the simulation analysis.

  Deposits totaled $1.70 billion, or 76.2% of total assets, at December 31,
2000. Since deposits are the primary funding source for earning assets, the
associated market risk is considered by management in its simulation analysis.
Generally, it is anticipated that deposits will be sufficient to support
funding requirements. However, the rates paid for deposits at varying levels
of prevailing interest rates have a significant impact on net interest income
and therefore, must be quantified by Alabama National in its simulation
analysis. Specifically, Alabama National's spread, the difference between the
rates earned on earning assets and rates paid on interest bearing liabilities,
is generally higher when prevailing rates are higher. As prevailing rates
reduce, the spread tends to compress, with severe compression at very low
prevailing interest rates. This characteristic is called "spread compression"
and adversely effects net interest income in the simulation analysis when
anticipated prevailing rates are reduced from current rates. Management relies
upon historical experience to estimate the degree of spread compression in its
simulation analysis. Management believes that such estimates of possible
spread compression are reasonable. However, if the degree of spread
compression varies from that expected, the actual results could differ from
those indicated by the simulation analysis.

                                      24


  The following table illustrates the results of simulation analysis used by
Alabama National to determine the extent to which market risk would affect net
interest margin for the next twelve months if prevailing interest rates
increased or decreased the specified amounts from current rates. Because of
the inherent use of estimates and assumptions in the simulation model used to
derive this information, the actual results of the future impact of market
risk on Alabama National's net interest margin, may differ from that found in
the table.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

  Alabama National has policies and procedures for evaluating the overall
credit quality of its loan portfolio including timely identification of
potential problem credits. On a monthly basis, management reviews the
appropriate level for the allowance for loan losses. This review and analysis
is based on the results of the internal monitoring and reporting system,
analysis of economic conditions in its markets and a review of historical
statistical data, current trends regarding the volume and severity of past due
and problem loans and leases, the existence and effect of concentrations of
credit, and changes in national and local economic conditions for both Alabama
National and other financial institutions. Management also considers in its
evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses the results of
regulatory examinations conducted for each Bank, including evaluation of
Alabama National's policies and procedures and findings from Alabama
National's independent loan review department.

  The provision for loan losses increased by $49,000, or 2.5%, to $2.0 million
in 2000 from $1.95 million in 1999. The growth in loans exceeded the growth in
loan loss provision, primarily due to Alabama National's assessment of
allowance for loan losses adequacy, low charge-off experience and low
nonperforming asset levels. Management believes the allowance for loan losses,
at its current level, adequately covers Alabama National's exposure to loan
losses.

  Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses is based on Alabama National's past loan loss experience, known and
inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the
borrowers' ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and
an analysis of current economic conditions. While management believes that it
has established the allowance in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles and has taken into account the views of its regulators and the
current economic environment, there can be no assurance that in the future
Alabama National's regulators or its economic environment will not require
further increases in the allowance.

  Additions to the allowance for loan losses, which are expensed as the
provision for loan losses on Alabama National's income statement, are made
periodically to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level
as determined by management. Loan losses and recoveries are charged or
credited directly to the allowance for loan losses.

  Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes,
after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts,
that the borrower's financial condition is such that collection of interest is
doubtful. It is Alabama National's policy to place a delinquent loan on
nonaccrual status when it becomes 90 days or more past due. When a loan is
placed on nonaccrual status, all interest which is accrued on the loan is
reversed and deducted from earnings as a reduction of reported interest. No
additional interest is accrued on the loan balance until collection of both
principal and interest becomes reasonably certain. When a problem loan is
finally resolved, there may ultimately be an actual writedown or charge-off of
the principal balance of the loan which would necessitate additional charges
to the allowance for loan losses. During the years ending December 31, 2000,
1999 and 1998, approximately $451,000, $392,000, and $384,000, respectively,
in additional interest income would have been recognized in earnings if
Alabama National's nonaccrual loans had been current in accordance with their
original terms.

  Total nonperforming assets decreased $162,000 to $4.7 million at December
3l, 2000, from $4.8 million at December 31, 1999. The allowance for loan
losses to period-end nonperforming assets was 446.74% at December 31, 2000,
compared with 373.85% at December 31, 1999. This ratio will generally
fluctuate from period to period depending upon nonperforming asset levels at
period end. Total nonperforming loans decreased $925,000 during 2000, to $3.2
million and other real estate owned increased $763,000, to $1.5 million at
December 31, 2000.

 Potential Problem Loans

  A potential problem loan is one that management has concerns as to the
borrower's future performance under terms of the loan contract. These loans
are current as to principal and interest, and accordingly, they are not
included in the nonperforming asset categories. Management monitors these
loans closely in order to ensure that Alabama National's interests are
protected. At December 31, 2000, Alabama National had certain loans considered
by management to be potential problem loans totaling $24.8 million as compared
with $21.2 million at December 31, 1999. Alabama National believes early
identification of potential problem loans is an important factor in its
ability to successfully collect such loans. As such, it encourages early
identification of potential problems loans both with its loan officers and
loan review staff. The level of potential problem loans is factored into the
determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest Income and Expense

 Noninterest income

  The Company relies on six distinct product lines for the production of
recurring noninterest income: traditional retail and commercial banking,
mortgage banking, trust services, investment services, securities brokerage
services and insurance services. Combined fees associated with these product
lines totaled $26.9 million in 2000, compared with $25.1 million in 1999, an
increase of $1.9 million, or 7.4%.

2000, from $62.5 million in 1999. Salaries and employee benefits increased

general growth in employment concurrent with its expansion of offices and
business lines, its asset and revenue growth as well as salary increases
reflecting employee performance, job duties, and competitive

employment market conditions. Net occupancy expense increased $967,000, or
13.3%, in 2000. This increase is attributable the opening of three banking
branches and the acquisition of two banking branches during 2000 and a full
year of occupancy expenses associated with the insurance division.

  National Bank of Commerce of Birmingham operates an investment department
devoted primarily to handling correspondent banks' investment needs.
Investment services revenue consists primarily of commission income from the
sale of fixed income securities to correspondent banks. A small portion of
investment services revenue is generated from fee based services including
asset/liability consulting, bond accounting and security safekeeping.
Investment services revenue decreased $757,000, or 11.4%, to $5.9 million in
2000 from $6.6 million in 1999. The rising interest rate environment in early
2000 combined with strong loan demand in the economy reduced investors' demand
for fixed income securities. Investment services revenue decreased $2.6
million, or 28.2%, to $6.6 million in 1999 from $9.2 million in 1998. The
rising interest rate environment in 1999 combined with high loan demand and
the need for greater liquidity associated with Year 2000 resulted in reduced
demand for fixed income securities. These results include certain income and
expense items that are allocated by management to the investment services
areas of Alabama National.

  These results are not necessarily the same as would be expected if these
activities were conducted by a stand-alone entity because certain corporate
overhead expenses are not allocated directly to this division.

  National Bank of Commerce of Birmingham has a wholly owned subsidiary, NBC
Securities, Inc. (NBC Securities), that is a full service licensed broker-
dealer. Securities brokerage revenue consists primarily of commission income
generated from the sale of equity securities to individual and corporate
customers and from fees paid for investment management consulting work
performed for clients. NBC Securities also recognizes interest income from
margin loans. Securities brokerage revenue increased $1.7 million, or 46.0%,
to $5.4 million in 2000 from $3.7 million in 1999. The increase is due to
favorable market conditions in early 2000, additional investment advisors and
customer assets in custody or under management, and general expansion of
securities brokerage services to other subsidiaries of Alabama National.
Interest income increased to $3.7 million in 2000, from $2.1 million in 1999
due to increased volume of margin loans. During 1999, total securities
brokerage revenue increased $2.0 million, or 51.4%, to $5.8 million, from $3.8
million in 1998, primarily as a result of favorable market conditions. These
results include certain income and expense items allocated by management to
NBC Securities.

  These results are not necessarily the same as would be expected if these
activities were conducted by a stand-alone entity because certain corporate
overhead expenses are not allocated directly to this division.

  Trust division income increased $89,000, or 4.1%, to $2.3 million in 2000
from $2.2 million in 1999 due to new customer relationships and growth of
existing assets managed. Because most fees in trust are based upon assets
under management or custody, conditions in equity and fixed income markets
have an impact on trust revenues. Trust asset values, and thus trust revenues,
were negatively impacted in 2000 by the negative effect of interest rate
movements on fixed income portfolios throughout much of the year and by equity
market declines. Similar conditions resulted in a 4.2% increase in trust
department fees to $2.2 million in 1999 from $2.1 million in 1998.

  Trust division expenses and allocated charges increased $159,000, or 13.8%,
in 2000 versus 1999, from $1.1 million to $1.3 million. These results include
certain income and expense items that are allocated by management to the trust
services area of Alabama National.

  These results are not necessarily the same as would be expected if these
activities were conducted by a stand-alone entity because certain corporate
overhead expenses are not allocated directly to this division.

(1) Includes intercompany income allocated to mortgage lending division
    totaling $335,000, $247,000 and $102,000 at December 31, 2000, 1999 and
    1998, respectively.

  Fees charged in connection with the origination and resale of mortgage loans
decreased $374,000, or 8.8%, to $3.9 million in 2000 from $4.2 million in
1999, due primarily to changing market conditions. As interest rates remained
high in early 2000, mortgage origination volume declined. The expenses and
allocated charges decreased by $330,000 to $3.1 million in 2000 from $3.4
million in 1999. The decrease was due to less mortgage origination volume.
Fees charged in connection with the origination and resale of mortgage loans
totaled $4.2 million in 1999 and $4.4 million in 1998, a decrease of $165,000,
resulting from a rising interest rate environment during 1999. The expenses
and allocated charges increased by $330,000 to $3.4 million in 1999 from $3.1
million in 1998. The rise in expenses was largely due to expansion of the
mortgage lending business into four new markets and the increased level of
expenses associated with such expansion. These results include certain income
and expense items that are allocated by management to the mortgage lending
area of Alabama National.

  These results are not necessarily the same as would be expected if these
activities were conducted by a stand-alone entity because certain corporate
overhead expenses are not allocated directly to this division.

(1) The insurance division was acquired in May 1999.

                                      31


  Alabama National purchased an existing insurance company in May of 1999,
thus the operating results for 2000 are the first full year of activity for
this division. These results include certain income and expense items that are
allocated by management to the insurance services division of Alabama
National.

  These results are not necessarily the same as would be expected if these
activities were conducted by a stand-alone entity because certain corporate
overhead expenses are not allocated directly to this division.

Earning Assets

 Loans

  Loans are the largest category of earning assets and typically provide
higher yields than the other types of earning assets. Associated with the
higher loan yields are the inherent credit and liquidity risks which
management attempts to control and counterbalance. Total loans averaged $1.49
billion in 2000 compared to $1.20 billion in 1999, an increase of $284.6
million, or 23.7%. At December 31, 2000, total loans, net of unearned income,
were $1.61 billion compared to $1.32 billion at the end of 1999, an increase
of $289.3 million, or 21.9%.

  The growth in Alabama National's loan portfolio is attributable to Alabama
National's ability to attract new customers while maintaining consistent
underwriting standards and general economic conditions that resulted in
increased loan demand from existing customers. The following table details the
composition of the loan portfolio by category at the dates indicated.

  In the context of this discussion, a "real estate mortgage loan" is defined
as any loan, other than loans for construction purposes, secured by real
estate, regardless of the purpose of the loan. It is common practice for
financial institutions in Alabama National's market areas, and for Alabama
National in particular, to obtain a security interest or lien in real estate
whenever possible, in addition to any other available collateral. This
collateral is taken to reinforce the likelihood of the ultimate repayment of
the loan and tends to increase the magnitude of the real estate loan portfolio
component.

  The principal component of Alabama National's loan portfolio is real estate
mortgage loans. At year-end 2000, this category totaled $1.1 billion and
represented 68.2% of the total loan portfolio, compared to $878.9 million, or
66.5%, of the total loan portfolio, at year-end 1999.

  Residential mortgage loans increased $93.3 million, or 26.0%, to $451.7
million at December 31, 2000, compared with $358.4 million at December 31,
1999. Commercial mortgage loans increased $95.8 million, or 26.0%, to $465.0
million at December 31, 2000. Increases in both of these categories of loans
are primarily the result of Alabama National's expertise in and appetite for
these commercial and residential real estate loans. In addition, the general
economic conditions in Alabama National's markets, which generate such lending
opportunities, are partially responsible for this growth.

  Real estate construction loans increased $30.2 million, or 20.4%, to $178.5
million at December 31, 2000, compared with $148.2 million at December 31,
1999. Alabama National's focus on the home construction market and strong
construction activity in markets it serves caused this increase.

  Consumer loans increased $2.6 million, or 3.5%, during 2000 to $76.0 million
from $73.4 million in 1999. Lease financing receivables increased $36.6
million, or 166.1%, during 2000 to $58.7 million from $22.0 million as a
result of a successful marketing efforts and business development efforts of
individuals in this area. Alabama National engages in no foreign lending
operations.

  The repayment of loans is a source of additional liquidity for Alabama
National. The following table sets forth Alabama National's loans maturing
within specific intervals at December 31, 2000.

  The information presented in the above table is based upon the contractual
maturities of the individual loans, including loans which may be subject to
renewal at their contractual maturity. Renewal of such loans is subject to
review and credit approval, as well as modification of terms upon their
maturity. Consequently, management believes this treatment presents fairly the
maturity and repricing structure of the loan portfolio.

 Securities

  Securities, including securities classified as held to maturity (or
investment securities) and available for sale, represent a significant portion
of Alabama National's earning assets. Securities averaged $354.2 million
during 2000, compared with $331.0 million during 1999, an increase of $23.2
million, or 7.0%. Growth in the securities portfolio is generally a function
of growth in funding sources net of lending opportunities. At December 31,
2000, the securities portfolio totaled $375.3 million, including securities
held to maturity with an amortized cost of $60.8 million and securities
available for sale with a market value of $314.6 million.

  The following tables set forth the carrying value of securities held by
Alabama National at the dates indicated.

(1)  Computed on a tax-equivalent basis utilizing a 34% tax rate, without
     giving effect to the disallowance for Federal income tax purposes of
     interest related to certain tax-exempt assets.

  At December 31, 2000, mortgage-backed securities consisting of
collateralized mortgage obligations and pass-through mortgage obligations had
a carrying value totaling $219.9 million. These mortgage-backed securities
include $49.8 million classified as investment securities and $170.0 million
classified as securities available for sale. Management expects the annual
repayment of the underlying mortgages to vary as a result of monthly repayment
of principal and/or interest required under terms of the underlying promissory
notes. Further, the actual rate of repayment is subject to changes depending
upon both terms of the underlying mortgages and the relative level of mortgage
interest rates. When relative interest rates decline to levels below that of
the underlying mortgages, acceleration of principal repayment is expected as
some borrowers on the underlying mortgages refinance to lower rates. When the
underlying rates on mortgage loans are comparable to, or in excess of, market
rates, repayment more closely conforms to scheduled amortization in accordance
with terms of the promissory note. Accordingly, management generally expects
repayment of the collateralized mortgage obligations over a three to five year
period and repayment of the pass-through mortgage obligations over a five to
seven year period.

  Other attributes of securities are discussed in "Interest Sensitivity and
Market Risk."

 Short-Term Investments

  Alabama National utilizes overnight investment of funds in Federal funds
sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell to ensure that
adequate liquidity will be maintained, while at the same time minimizing the
level of uninvested cash reserves. Short-term investments are also utilized by
Alabama National when the level of funds committed to lending and investment
portfolio programs changes or the level of deposit generation changes. During
2000, Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell
averaged $39.6 million, compared to $46.6 million during 1999, representing a
$7.0 million, or 15.1%, decrease as Alabama National experienced growth in
both loans and investment securities.

 Trading Account Securities

  An important aspect of investment department operations, but less so to
Alabama National in total, are trading account securities, which represent
securities owned by Alabama National prior to sale and delivery to Alabama
National's customers. Trading account securities averaged $1.8 million in 2000
and were $577,000 at December 31, 2000, compared with an average of $6.7
million in 1999 and $2.7 million at December 31, 1999. This small dollar
amount reflects management's policy of limiting positions in such securities
to reduce its exposure to market and interest rate changes.

Deposits and Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities

  Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $305.4 million, or 22.4%, to
$1.67 billion in 2000, from $1.36 billion in 1999. Average interest-bearing
deposits increased $227.1 million, or 20.1%, to $1.36 billion in 2000, from
$1.13 billion in 1999. This increase is attributable to competitive rate and
product offerings by Alabama National and successful marketing efforts as well
as to the purchase of $54 million in deposits through the acquisition of two
branches during 2000. Average Federal funds purchased and securities sold
under agreements to repurchase increased $7.8 million, or 5.4%, to $154.0
million in 2000, from $146.1 million in 1999 due, in part, to additional
liquidity provided by downstream correspondent banks. Average short-term
borrowings increased by $31.8 million, or 124.6%, to $57.4 million in 2000,
compared to $25.5 million in 1999. Average long-term borrowings increased
$38.7 million, to $97.2 million in 2000, from $58.4 million in 1999. The
increase in short and long-term debt is due to utilizing more borrowing
programs offered to Alabama National's Federal Home Loan Bank member
subsidiaries.

 Deposits

  Average total deposits increased $232.4 million, or 17.2%, to $1.58 billion
during 2000, from $1.35 billion during 1999. At December 31, 2000, total
deposits were $1.70 billion, compared with $1.44 billion at December 31, 1999,
an increase of $261.8 million, or 18.2%.

  Core deposits, which exclude time deposits of $100,000 or more, provide for
a relatively stable funding source that supports earning assets. Alabama
National's core deposits totaled $1.42 billion, or 83.3%, of total deposits at
December 31, 2000 and totaled $1.22 billion, or 84.4%, of total deposits at
December 31, 1999.

  Deposits, in particular core deposits, have historically been Alabama
National's primary source of funding and have enabled Alabama National to meet
successfully both short-term and long-term liquidity needs. Management
anticipates that such deposits will continue to be Alabama National's primary
source of funding in the future. Alabama National's loan-to-deposit ratio was
94.5% at December 31, 2000, and 91.5% at the end of 1999, and the ratio
averaged 93.9% during 2000 and 89.0% during 1999. These increases in Alabama
National's loan-to-deposit ratio are due to loan growth exceeding deposit
growth in 2000. The maturity distribution of Alabama National's time deposits
in excess of $100,000 at December 31, 2000, is shown in the following table.

  Approximately 41.8% of Alabama National's time deposits over $100,000 had
scheduled maturities within three months. Large certificate of deposit
customers tend to be extremely sensitive to interest rate levels, making these
deposits less reliable sources of funding for liquidity planning purposes than
core deposits. Many financial institutions partially fund their balance sheets
with large certificates of deposit obtained through brokers, and Alabama
National had $78.1 million in brokered deposits outstanding at December 31,
2000, compared to $47.5 million at December 31, 1999.


                                      37


 Borrowed Funds

  Borrowed funds include four broad categories; (i) Federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, (ii) treasury, tax and
loan balances, (iii) Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings, and (iv)
borrowings from a third party bank. Because of a relatively high loan-to-
deposit ratio, the existence and stability of these funding sources are
critical to Alabama National's maintenance of short-term and long-term
liquidity.

  Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
represent both an input of excess funds from correspondent bank customers of
Alabama National as well as a cash management tool offered to corporate
customers. At December 31, 2000, these funds totaled $165.1 million, compared
with $131.9 million at December 31, 1999.

  At December 31, 2000, treasury, tax and loan balances totaled $900,000,
compared to $6.2 million at December 31, 1999. Alabama National collects tax
deposits from customers and is permitted to retain these balances until
established collateral limits are exceeded or until the U.S. Treasury
withdraws its balances.

  Alabama National's average borrowing from a third party bank under a $32
million credit facility ("the Credit Facility") was $20.8 million during 2000,
compared with $13.4 million during 1999. As of December 31, 2000, the
outstanding balance under the Credit Facility was $27.4 million, leaving a
remaining availability under the Credit Facility of $4.6 million. The
increased borrowings under this facility are primarily attributable to the
acquisition of two branches during 2000. The branch acquisition by one of
Alabama National's subsidiary banks required cash payments to the seller as
well as an increased capital contribution into the subsidiary bank to fund the
asset growth resulting from the acquisition. The Credit Facility bears
interest at a rate that varies with LIBOR and is secured by a pledge of stock
in the Banks. The Credit Facility is typically renewed on an annual basis and
has a current maturity date of May 31, 2001. Alabama National has historically
renewed the Credit Facility prior to its due date and anticipates doing so
again in 2001.

  All of the Banks are members of the FHLB. At December 31, 2000, these Banks
had available FHLB lines of $284.0 million, under which $139.7 million was
outstanding, including advances classified as short-term of $56.0 million and
advances classified as long-term of $83.7 million. This compares to borrowings
of $125.7 million at December 31, 1999, of which $2.0 million was short-term
and $123.7 million was long-term.

  Under the capital guidelines of their regulators, Alabama National and the
Banks are currently required to maintain a minimum risk-based total capital
ratio of 8%, with at least 4% being Tier I capital. Tier I capital consists of
common stockholders' equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority
interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill. In
addition, under the guidelines, Alabama National and the Banks must maintain a
minimum Tier I leverage ratio of Tier I capital to total assets of at least
3%, but this minimum ratio is typically increased by 100 to 200 basis points
for other than the highest rated institutions.

  Alabama National exceeded its fully phased-in regulatory capital ratios at
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, as set forth in the following table.

 Liquidity Management

  Liquidity management involves monitoring Alabama National's sources and uses
of funds in order to meet its day-to-day cash flow requirements while
maximizing profits. Liquidity represents the ability of an entity to convert
assets into cash or cash equivalents without significant loss and to raise
additional funds by increasing liabilities.

  Without proper liquidity management, Alabama National will not be able to
perform the primary function of a financial intermediary and would, therefore,
not be able to meet the needs of the communities it serves.

  Increased liquidity in typical interest rate environments often involves
decreasing profits by investing in earning assets with shorter maturities.
Liquidity management is made more complex because different balance sheet
components are subject to varying degrees of management control. For example,
the timing of maturities of the investment portfolio is very predictable and
subject to a high degree of control at the time investment decisions are made.
However, net deposit inflows and outflows are far less predictable and are not
subject to nearly the same degree of control.

  Assets included in Alabama National's Consolidated Statements of Condition
contribute to liquidity management. Federal funds sold and securities
purchased under agreements to resell, Alabama National's primary source of
liquidity, averaged $39.6 million during 2000 and was $27.8 million at
December 31, 2000, and averaged $46.6 million during 1999 and was $33.6
million at December 31, 1999. If required in short-term liquidity management,
these assets could be converted to cash immediately. Cash received from the
repayment of investment securities and loans provides a constant source of
cash that contributes to liquidity management. Unpledged securities, with a
carrying value of approximately $133.7 million at December 31, 2000, provide
Alabama National an opportunity to generate cash by, 1) providing additional
collateral by selling securities under agreements to repurchase, 2) providing
collateral to obtain public funds or 3) providing collateral to borrow
directly from the Federal Reserve Bank or the Federal Home Loan Bank. See
"Earning Assets--Loans" and "Earning Assets--Securities."

  Liquidity can also be managed using liabilities included in Alabama
National's Consolidated Statement of Condition, such as Federal funds
purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short-term
borrowing. Combined Federal funds purchased and securities sold under
agreements to repurchase, treasury, tax

                                      41


and loan, and short-term borrowings averaged $211.3 million during 2000 and
were $249.5 million at December 31, 2000, and averaged $171.7 million during
1999 and were $156.5 million at December 31, 1999. Overnight borrowing lines
with upstream correspondent banks, $157.7 million at December 31, 2000, of
which $139.7 million was unused, provide additional sources of liquidity to
Alabama National on an unsecured basis. The Federal Home Loan Bank provides
secured and unsecured credit lines to all of Alabama National's Banks totaling
approximately $284.0 million. At December 31, 2000, advances under these lines
totaled $139.7 million, including $56.0 million classified as short-term and
$83.7 million classified as long-term. Long-term liquidity needs are met
through Alabama National's deposit base (approximately 83.3% of Alabama
National's deposits at December 31, 2000, are considered core deposits), and
the repayment of loans and other investments as they mature. Alabama National
is able to manage its long-term liquidity needs by adjusting the rates it pays
on longer-term deposits and the amount and mix of longer-term investments in
its portfolio.

  One of the Banks has pledged approximately $170.5 million in loans to the
Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta as collateral for a discount window credit
facility, which management views as a backup liquidity facility. At December
31, 2000, the Bank had access to approximately $136.4 million under this
facility, with no outstanding borrowings.

  Alabama National, as a stand-alone corporation, has more limited access to
liquidity sources than its Banks and depends on dividends from its
subsidiaries as its primary source of liquidity. Alabama National's liquidity
is diminished by required payments on its outstanding short-term debt. The
ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends is subject to general regulatory
restrictions which may, but are not expected to, have a material negative
impact on the liquidity available to Alabama National. (See Note 17 to the
Alabama National's Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual
Report.) If circumstances warrant, Alabama National's short-term liquidity
needs can also be met by additional borrowings of approximately $4.6 million
representing the unused portion of Alabama National's credit facility with an
unrelated bank. See "Deposits and Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities--Borrowed
Funds."

Accounting Rule Changes

  Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities-- A Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125

  In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities--A
Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125 ("Statement 140"). Statement 140 is
effective for transfers occurring after March 31, 2001 and for disclosures
relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending
after December 15, 2000. Management of Alabama National does not expect the
adoption of Statement 140 to have a material impact on its financial
statements since the company has not entered into any securitization or asset
transfer transactions.

 Derivative Investments and Hedging Activities

  In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Standard No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, ("Statement
133"). Statement 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, by
requiring that an entity recognize those items as assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure them at fair value. If certain
conditions are met, an entity may elect to designate a derivative instrument
as a hedging instrument. Statement 133 generally provides for matching the
timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the
recognition of (a) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or
liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (b) the earnings effect
of the hedged forecasted transaction. Statement 133, as amended by Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS No.
133, and by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138, Accounting
for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities--An

                                      42


Amendment of SFAS No. 133, is effective for fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000, and is effective for interim periods in the initial year of
adoption. The Company's derivative activities at December 31, 2000 relate
solely to the interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) which the Company has
entered into with certain customers for specific short-term periods of time.
These IRLCs relate to prospective mortgage loans which the Company originates
and then immediately transfers to secondary mortgage servicers. The transfer
of these IRLCs allows the Company to pass financial risk associated with
potential changes in interest rates on to secondary mortgage servicers.
Management has evaluated these activities and determined that the Company does
not have any material derivative exposures and that the adoption of Statement
133, on January 1, 2001, will not have a material impact on the financial
statements.

  Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities retained after the Securitization
of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise, an Amendment
of FASB Statement No. 65

  Effective January 1, 1999, Alabama National adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 134, Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities
Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by a
Mortgage Banking Enterprise, an Amendment of FASB Statement No.65 ("Statement
134"). Statement 134 amends Statement No.65 to require that after
securitization of mortgage loans held for sale, an entity engaged in mortgage
banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed securities or other
retained interests based on its ability and intent to sell of hold those
investments. Since Alabama National has not securitized mortgage loans, there
has been no financial statement impact since the adoption of this statement.

Impact of Inflation

  Unlike most industrial companies, the assets and liabilities of financial
institutions such as Alabama National and its subsidiaries are primarily
monetary in nature. Therefore, interest rates have a more significant effect
on Alabama National's performance than do the effects of changes in the
general rate of inflation and change in prices. In addition, interest rates do
not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the
prices of goods and services. Management seeks to manage the relationships
between interest-sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against
wide interest rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation. See
"Interest Sensitivity and Market Risk."

Industry Developments

  Certain recently enacted and proposed legislation could have an effect on
both the costs of doing business and the competitive factors facing the
financial institutions industry. Alabama National is unable at this time to
assess the impact of this legislation on its financial condition or results of
operations.

                       Consolidated Financial Statements

                       December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the

                      Three Years Ended December 31, 2000


                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Alabama National BanCorporation

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
condition and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive
income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Alabama National BanCorporation and its
subsidiaries at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

               ALABAMA NATIONAL BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  Alabama National Bancorporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) provides a
full range of banking and bank-related services to individual and corporate
customers through its ten subsidiary banks located in Alabama, Georgia, and
Florida.

  Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation--The accounting and
reporting policies of the Company conform with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and with general financial service
industry practices. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

  Use of Estimates--In preparing the financial statements, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities as of the statement of condition dates and revenues and
expenses for the periods shown. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

  Cash and Cash Equivalents--For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand and due from banks.

  Securities--Investment securities are stated at amortized cost as a result
of management's ability and intent to hold the securities until maturity.
Related premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted on these investments
using the effective interest method.

  Securities available for sale are those securities intended to be held for
an indefinite period of time. The Company may sell these securities as part of
its asset/liability strategy in response to changes in interest rates, changes
in prepayment risk, or similar factors. Securities available for sale are
recorded at market value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on securities
classified as available for sale are carried as a separate component of
stockholders' equity.

  Trading securities, principally obligations of U.S. government agencies, are
securities held for sale and are stated at market. Bond purchases and sales
are recorded on the trade date. Accounts receivable from and accounts payable
to bond customers and dealers are included in other assets and liabilities and
represent security transactions entered into for which the securities have not
been delivered as of the statement of condition dates. Unrealized holding
gains and losses on securities classified as trading are reported in earnings
of the period in which they occur.

  Gains and losses on the sale of securities are computed using the specific
identification method.

  Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses--Interest income with respect to loans
is accrued on the principal amount outstanding, except for interest on certain
consumer loans which is recognized over the term of the loan using a method
which approximates level yields.

  Certain impaired loans are reported at the present value of expected future
cash flows using the loan's effective interest rate, or as a practical
expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the
collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

  The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan
losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan
losses when management believes the collection of principal is unlikely. The
allowance is the amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb
possible losses on existing loans which may become uncollectible, based on
evaluations of the collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. The
evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and
volume of the

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific loan problems,
and current economic conditions which may affect the borrower's ability to
pay. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes,
after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts,
that the borrower's financial condition is such that the collection of
interest is doubtful. Payments received on such loans are applied first to
principal until the recoverability of the obligation is assured. Any remaining
payments are then allocated as additional reductions of principal and interest
income.


  Property, Equipment, and Leasehold Improvements--Property, equipment, and
leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Depreciation is principally computed using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful life of each type of asset. Leasehold
improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of
the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the terms of the related
leases. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; improvements and
betterments are capitalized. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of,
the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
and any resulting gains or losses are credited or charged to income. Estimated
useful lives generally are as follows:


                                                                  
      Buildings.....................................................  5-45 years
      Leasehold improvements........................................ 10-30 years
      Furniture, equipment, and vault...............................  3-30 years


  Other Real Estate--Other real estate, primarily property acquired by
foreclosure, is capitalized at the lower of fair value less estimated selling
costs or cost of the property or loan immediately prior to its classification
as other real estate. Other real estate is not depreciated. Losses,
representing the difference between the sales price and the carrying value of
the property, are recorded immediately, while gains on sales financed by the
Company are deferred until the initial and continuing investment by the
borrower equals or exceeds specified equity percentages. Gains on all other
sales are recorded immediately.

  Intangible Assets--Intangible assets consist of the excess of cost over the
fair value of net assets of acquired businesses and core deposit assets. The
excess of cost over the fair value of net assets of acquired businesses, which
totaled approximately $13,430,000 and $11,095,000, and had related accumulated
amortization of approximately $2,588,000 and $2,087,000 at December 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively, is being amortized over periods ranging from 15 to 25
years, principally using the straight-line method of amortization. Core
deposit intangibles, which totaled approximately $5,786,000 and $3,625,000 at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and had related accumulated
amortization of approximately $2,281,000 and $1,903,000 at December 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively, are being amortized over 10 years using either the
straight-line or double-declining balance methods of amortization. The
carrying value of the excess of cost over net assets of subsidiaries acquired
is reviewed if facts and circumstances suggest that it may be impaired. If
warranted, analysis, including undiscounted income projections, are made to
determine if adjustments to the carrying value or amortization periods are
necessary. No such adjustments were required or made during the years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999 or 1998.

  Software costs--Software costs with a recorded cost of approximately
$3,122,000 and $2,453,000 and related accumulated amortization of
approximately $2,170,000 and $1,933,000 are included in other assets at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Amortization expense related to
these costs of approximately $219,000, $202,000, and $140,000 was recorded in
2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

  Income Taxes--Deferred income taxes are provided on all temporary
differences between the financial reporting basis and the income tax basis of
assets and liabilities.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


  Stock-Based Employee Compensation--The Company uses a value-based method of
accounting for compensation costs. Compensation cost for stock-based employee
compensation arrangements is measured at the grant date based on the value of
the award and is recognized over the service period. The Company has fully
adopted and implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and has recorded compensation costs in
accordance with these provisions. As such, no additional pro forma expenses or
disclosure requirements exist for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and
1998.

  Advertising Costs--The Company expenses the costs of advertising when those
costs are incurred.

  Collateral Requirements--The Company requires collateral for certain
transactions with retail and commercial customers. Specifically, margin loans
made for the purpose of borrowing against marketable investment securities
generally do not exceed 50% of the total market value of a customer's
marginable securities portfolio at the time of the transaction or any time
thereafter. Repurchase agreements, limited to commercial customers, generally
do not exceed the market value of securities used to secure such transactions
at the time of the transaction or thereafter. Federal funds sold are made to
correspondent banks on an unsecured basis and generally do not exceed limits
established for each bank resulting from evaluation of the bank's financial
position.

  Reclassifications--Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior
year financial statements to conform with the 2000 presentation.

  Recently Issued Accounting Standards--In September 2000, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishments of Liabilities--A Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125
(Statement 140). Statement 140 is effective for transfers occurring after
March 31, 2001 and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and
collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. Management of the
Company does not expect the adoption of Statement 140 to have a material
impact on its financial statements since the Company has not entered into any
securitization or asset transfer transactions.

  In 1999, the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC)
issued The Uniform Classification and Account Management Policy (the Policy)
which provides guidance for and promotes consistency among banks on the
treatment of delinquent and bankruptcy-related consumer loans. The Company has
implemented the Policy effective December 31, 2000 and is in full compliance.

  In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
(Statement 133). Statement 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, by requiring that an entity recognize those items as assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure them at fair
value. If certain conditions are met, an entity may elect to designate a
derivative instrument as a hedging instrument. Statement 133 generally
provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging
instrument with the recognition of (a) the changes in the fair value of the
hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (b) the
earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. Statement 133, as
amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date
of SFAS No. 133, and by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138,
Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities-
An Amendment of SFAS No 133, is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000, and is effective for interim periods in the initial year of
adoption. The Company's derivative activities at December 31, 2000 relate
solely to the interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) which the Company has
entered into with certain customers for specific short-term periods of time.
These IRLCs relate to prospective mortgage loans which the Company

                                     F-10


               ALABAMA NATIONAL BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

originates and then immediately transfers to secondary mortgage servicers. The
transfer of these IRLCs allows the Company to pass financial risk associated
with potential changes in interest rates on to secondary mortgage servicers.
Management has evaluated these activities and determined that the Company does
not have any material derivative exposures and that the adoption of Statement
133, on January 1, 2001, will not have a material impact on the financial
statements.

  Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 134, Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities
Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by a
Mortgage Banking Enterprise, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65 (Statement
134). Statement 134 amends Statement 65 to require that after the
securitization of mortgage loans held for sale, an entity engaged in mortgage
banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed securities or other
retained interests based on its ability and intent to sell or hold those
investments. Since the Company has not securitized mortgage loans, there has
been no financial statement impact since the adoption of this statement.

2. Business Combinations

  On August 4, 2000, First American Bank, a subsidiary of the Company,
completed the acquisition of two banking branches in Madison and Huntsville,
Alabama. The acquisition increased loans and deposits by approximately $68.9
million and $54.0 million, respectively. The acquisition was accounted for as
a purchase transaction.

  On December 31, 1998, Community Bank of Naples, N.A. (Naples), headquartered
in Naples, Florida, was merged (the Naples Merger) into the Company. On
October 2, 1998, Community Financial Corporation (CFC), a one bank holding
company headquartered in Mableton, Georgia, was merged (the CFC Merger) into
the Company. Public Bank Corporation (Public), a one bank holding company
headquartered in St. Cloud, Florida, was merged (the Public Merger) into the
Company on May 29, 1998.

  Additional information related to these mergers is presented in the
following table:

                                                    Common Stock Date of Merger
       Merger                                          Issued    (Approximately)
       ------                                       ------------ ---------------
                                                           
      Naples.......................................    532,608    $ 92,600,000
      CFC..........................................  1,076,032    $138,900,000
      Public.......................................    549,913    $ 53,300,000


  The consolidated financial statements of the Company give effect to these
mergers, all of which were accounted for as poolings of interests and,
accordingly, financial statements for all periods have previously been
restated to reflect the results of operations of the companies on a combined
basis from the earliest period presented, except for dividends per share.

  In the third quarter of 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company
authorized the repurchase of 121,129 shares of common stock. This repurchase,
which was completed during the third quarter at a cost of approximately
$3,226,000, was specifically related to the Company's issuance of an identical
number of shares to acquire Rankin Insurance Agency during May 1999 in a
purchase business combination. The pro forma impact of this purchase business
combination on the Company's financial statements for the periods prior to
acquisition is not significant and, thus, is not presented herein.

  In the normal course of business, loans are made to directors, officers, and
their affiliates. Such loans are made on substantially the same terms as to
other customers of the banks. The aggregate of such loans was $55,541,000 and
$50,992,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During 2000 and 1999,
new loans of $42,492,000 and $32,517,000 were funded and repayments totaled
$37,943,000 and $25,197,000, respectively.

  Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced
amounted to approximately $3,221,000 and $4,141,000 at December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively. If the loans of the Company had been current throughout
their terms, gross interest income for the years ended December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively, would have increased by approximately $451,000 and
$392,000.

  Other real estate at December 31, 2000 and 1999 totaled $1,450,000 and
$687,000, respectively.

  At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the recorded investment in loans for which
impairment has been recognized totaled $3,221,000 and $4,146,000,
respectively, and these loans had a corresponding valuation allowance of $0
and $202,000. Management of the Company believes that the value of these
impaired loans on the Company's books is less than the recoverable value of
the loans. The Company recognized no interest on impaired loans during the
portion of the year that they were impaired. The impaired loans at December
31, 2000 and 1999 were measured for impairment primarily using the fair value
of the collateral.

  The Company grants real estate, commercial, and consumer loans to customers
primarily in Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. Although the Company has a
diversified loan portfolio, significant concentrations include loans
collateralized by improved and undeveloped commercial and residential real
estate.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

  In the normal course of business, the Company makes commitments to meet the
financing needs of its customers. These commitments include commitments to
extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments include, to
varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in
the consolidated statements of condition. The Company's exposure to credit
risk is the extent of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial
instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and
is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company
uses the same credit policies and procedures in making commitments and
conditional obligations as it does for loans.

  At December 31, 2000 and 1999, unused commitments under lines of credit
aggregated approximately $439,866,000 and $426,779,000, of which approximately
$19,022,000 and $20,912,000 pertained to related parties, respectively. The
Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on an individual basis.
The amount of collateral obtained, if 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, residential real estate and income-
producing commercial properties.

  The Company had approximately $17,750,000 and $14,431,000 in irrevocable
standby letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2000 and 1999, of which
approximately $319,000 and $121,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, pertained to related parties. The credit risk involved in

is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to
customers. The collateral varies but may include accounts receivable,
inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and residential real estate for
those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

  The Company, in the normal course of business, is subject to various pending
and threatened litigation. Based on legal counsel's opinion, management does
not anticipate that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such
litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.

11. Employee Benefit Plans

  Prior to December 31, 1999, one of the subsidiary banks, National Bank of
Commerce (NBC), maintained a defined benefit pension plan covering
substantially all employees of NBC. Effective December 31, 1999, the Company
ceased further benefit accruals under the plan, resulting in a curtailment of
the plan. The effect of the curtailment was a $1,522,000 reduction in the
projected benefit obligation, which was offset by the recognition of a
previously unrecognized prior service cost of $13,000 and a portion of the
unrecognized net loss of $690,000. The net result of the curtailment was a
recorded curtailment gain of $819,000 during the year ended December 31, 1999.

  Benefits are based on years of service and the average monthly earnings for
the last sixty months of employment. The Company's policy is to use the
"projected unit credit" actuarial method for financial reporting purposes and
the "frozen entry age" actuarial method for funding purposes. The components
of net pension expense (income) for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999,
and 1998 are as follows (in thousands):

  The Company has a qualified employee benefit plan under Section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code covering substantially all employees. Employees can
contribute up to 15% of their salary to the plan on a pre-tax basis and the
Company matches participants' contributions up to the first 5% of each
participant's salary. The Company's matching contribution charged to
operations related to this plan, as well as other plans of merged banks, was
approximately $935,000, $507,000, and $431,000 for the years ended December
31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

  The Company and certain subsidiary banks have deferred compensation plans
for the benefit of the Company's former chief executive officer. Payments
under the plans commence March 15, 1997 and March 15, 2002, or at his death,
if earlier, and continue for a period of 15 years. In connection with the
plans, the banks purchased single premium life insurance policies on the life
of the officer. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the cash surrender value of the
policies was $2,403,000 and $2,285,000, respectively. Additionally, the
Company and several of its subsidiary banks own life insurance policies to
provide for the payment of death benefits related

               ALABAMA NATIONAL BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
to existing deferred compensation and supplemental income plans maintained for
the benefit of certain presidents, employees and directors of such banks. The
total cash surrender value of such policies at December 31, 2000 and 1999 was
$5,524,000 and $2,355,000, respectively.

  The Company sponsors a Performance Share Plan (the PSP) to offer long-term
incentives in addition to current compensation to key executives. The criteria
for payment of performance share awards is based upon a comparison of the
Company's average return on average equity for an award period to that of a
comparison group of bank holding companies. If the Company's results are below
the median of the comparison group, no portion of the award is earned. If the
Company's results are at or above the 90th percentile, the maximum award is
earned. The vesting period for awards is four years. Under the plan, 400,000
shares have been reserved for issuances.

  In accordance with the terms of the PSP, a base grant of 22,500, 14,150, and
14,150 was made in each of the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998,
respectively. The market value per share was $18.88, $26.75 and $26.38 at each
grant date for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998,
respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2000, 21,082 shares were
awarded to participants. At December 31, 2000, outstanding awards of expected
and maximum payouts were 102,181 and 110,415 shares, respectively. Expenses
recorded for the PSP was $653,000, $541,000 and $482,000 for the years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

  During 1997, the Company adopted a separate Performance Share Plan to
provide long-term incentives to non-employee directors of a subsidiary bank
(the 1997 Subsidiary PSP) and granted approximately 20,000 shares, with a
market value per share of $25.13, in 1997 to vest over a sixty-three month
period. The actual number of shares to be distributed in fiscal 2002 will
depend on the subsidiary bank's performance as well as certain conditions to
be met by the directors. At December 31, 2000, the expected and maximum payout
was 18,261 shares, net of forfeitures. Expense recorded for the Subsidiary PSP
was $84,000, $77,000, and $96,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999
and 1998, respectively.

  During 2000, the Company adopted a separate performance share plan to
provide long-term incentives to non-employee directors of a subsidiary bank
(the 2000 Subsidiary PSP) and granted approximately 20,000 shares, with a
market value per share of $19.22 to vest over a sixty-four month period. The
actual number of shares to be distributed in fiscal 2005 will depend on the
subsidiary bank's performance as well as certain conditions to be met by
directors. At December 31, 2000, the expected and maximum payout was 25,000
shares. Expense recorded for the Subsidiary PSP was $30,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2000.

  During 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Long Term Incentive Plan (the LTI
Plan) which provides for the award of incentive and non-qualified stock
options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and performance awards to
eligible employees of the Company. The total number of shares of common stock
reserved and available for distribution under the LTI Plan is 300,000 shares.
Any awards under the LTI Plan will be in addition to awards made under the
PSP. During 2000, the Company granted 160,500 non-qualified stock options
under the LTI Plan, which vest over a sixty-month period. Expense recorded for
the LTI Plan was $199,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000.

  In connection with the 1998 business combinations, the Company assumed fixed
stock option plans of the merged banks. Additionally, the Company had fixed
stock option plans with outstanding options granted prior to

  The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during
2000, 1999, and 1998 was $5.18, $6.17 and $5.91, respectively, on the date of
grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted
average assumptions: 2000--expected volatility 25.6%, expected dividend yield
3.5%, risk-free interest rate of 5.9%, and an expected life of 7.0 years;
1999--expected volatility 25.0%, expected dividend yield 3.0%, risk-free
interest rate of 6.0%, and an expected life of 7.0 years; and 1998--expected
volatility .05%, expected dividend yield 1.0%, risk-free interest rate of
5.0%, and an expected life of 7.0 years. Total compensation expense recorded
for the fixed stock option plans was $253,000, $53,000 and $90,000 for the
years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

  Additionally, the Company and two of its subsidiary banks maintain deferral
of compensation plans for certain directors who are not employees of the
Company. Under the plans, a non-employee director may choose to have all or
part of the cash and/or stock equivalents he would normally receive as
compensation deferred for future payment, at such time and in such manner as
the director specifies at the time of the election, so long as any annuity
payment period does not exceed ten years. The cash portion of the deferral of
compensation account earns interest at a rate which approximates the Company's
short-term borrowing rate. Dividends earned on stock equivalent portions are
credited to the deferral or compensation account in the form of additional
stock equivalents. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the amount deferred under
the terms of these plans totaled $1,285,000 and $875,000, respectively. For
the years ending December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, approximately $410,000,
$418,000 and $300,000, respectively, was expensed under these plans.

  One of the Company's subsidiary banks has a deferred compensation plan
whereby directors may elect to have all or a portion of their compensation
deferred. Expense recognized under the plan was $18,000, $18,000 and $23,000
in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. At December 31, 2000, amounts payable
under the plan totaled $98,000.

  During 1999, the Company completed the termination of a merged bank's
leveraged employee stock ownership plan as a portion of the ESOP's unallocated
shares were sold on the open market in order to satisfy the ESOP's debt with
the remaining shares allocated to the participants. Compensation expense
related to the ESOP was not material to the Company for 2000, 1999, or 1998.

  The Company did not establish a valuation allowance related to the deferred
tax asset recorded at December 31, 2000 and 1999 due to taxes paid within the
carryback period being sufficient to offset future deductions resulting from
the reversal of these temporary differences.

  Total provision for income taxes differs from the amount which would be
provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to pretax earnings
as illustrated below for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 (in
thousands):

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate
that value.

  Cash, Due From Banks, Interest-Bearing Cash Balances, and Federal Funds
Sold--The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

  Investment, Available for Sale, and Trading Securities--Fair value is based
on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

  Loans--The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash
flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to
borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

  Deposits--The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain
money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date.
The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using
the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

  Federal Funds Purchased, Short-Term Borrowings, and Long-Term Debt--The
carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

  Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit--All commitments
to extend credit and standby letters of credit have original terms, at their
issuance, of one year or less; therefore, the fair value of these instruments
does not materially differ from their stated value.

  The estimated fair values of financial instruments at December 31, 2000 and
1999 are as follows (in thousands):



                                            2000                  1999

17. Regulatory

  The subsidiary banks are required by law to maintain reserves in cash or
deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank or other banks. At December 31, 2000,
the required reserves totaled $22,983,000.

  At December 31, 2000 and 1999, securities with carrying values of
$241,577,000 and $178,398,000, respectively, were pledged to secure U.S.
government deposits and other public funds for purposes as required or
permitted by law.

  The Company has a policy of collecting amounts from its subsidiaries
sufficient to cover expenses of the Company and to service Company debt. Such
amounts have been received in the form of dividends declared by the
subsidiaries. Payment of dividends is subject to the financial condition of
the subsidiaries and the Company's judgment as to the desirability of
utilizing alternative sources of funds. The payment of dividends by the
subsidiary banks is also subject to various regulatory requirements. At
December 31, 2000, $41,214,000 of the retained earnings of the subsidiary
banks are available for payment of dividends to the Company under the various
regulatory requirements, without special approval from the applicable
regulators.

  The Company 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

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

discretionary--actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy
guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the
Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative
measures of the Company's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet
items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's
capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments
by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

  Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Company maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the
table below) of total qualifying capital and Tier I capital (as defined in the
regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as
defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December
31, 2000, that the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it
is subject.

  As of December 31, 2000, the most recent notification from the Federal
Reserve Bank categorized the Company as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized
the Company must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and
Tier I leverage 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.

  The actual capital amounts and ratios of the Company are presented in the
table below (in thousands):

18. Segment Reporting

  In addition to traditional commercial and consumer retail banking products,
the Company offers trust services, mortgage lending services, investment
services, securities brokerage services and insurance services to its
customers. The trust division manages the assets of both corporate and
individual customers located primarily in the markets served by the Company.
The mortgage lending division makes home loans to individuals throughout the
state of Alabama. The majority of the loans made are sold to corporate
investors, who also service the loans. The investment services division sells
fixed income securities and provides trading services to both individual and
corporate customers. The securities brokerage division is a full service
broker-dealer operation. The insurance division offers a full line of
insurance products including life, property and casualty insurance to
individual and corporate customers primarily in the state of Alabama. These
five divisions, along with the commercial and retail banking division, are
considered the Company's reportable segments for financial disclosure
purposes.

  The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies except that certain overhead
expenses are not allocated among the segments. Additionally, the fixed assets
utilized by the various divisions are not separately identified by management.
Accordingly, the results of operations for the trust, mortgage lending,
investment services, securities brokerage, and insurance segments are not
indicative of the results which would be achieved if each of the segments were
a separate company. Intersegment transactions are accounted for at fair market
value.
