Other Information SIGNATURES 25 2 3 INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT Board of Directors and Shareholders Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. Dearborn, Michigan We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheets of Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP Grand Rapids, Michigan May 4, 2001 DEARBORN BANCORP, INC.

C. Stock Option Plan 9 10 Options to buy common stock are granted to officers and employees under a Stock Option Plan which provides for issue of up to 500,000 shares. Exercise price is the market price at date of grant. The maximum option term is ten years, and options vest fully after six months from the date of grant. If an option expires or terminates without having been exercised, such option becomes available for future grant under the Plan. A summary of the option activity is as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 is as follows: Weighted Weighted Average Fair Available Average Value of for Options Exercise Options Grant Outstanding Price Granted ----- ----------- ----- ------- Outstanding at January 1, 2001 308,498 185,502 $ 9.53 Granted (88,500) 88,500 8.64 3.79 ------------- ------------- Outstanding at March 31, 2001 219,998 274,002 9.24 For the options outstanding at March 31, 2001, the range of exercise prices was $6.81 to $12.75 per share with a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 8.3 years. At March 31, 2001, 185,502 options were exercisable at weighted average exercise prices of $9.53 per share. Had compensation cost for stock options been measured using the fair value method of FASB Statement No. 123, net income and earnings per share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated below for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 (in thousands, except per share data). The pro forma effects may increase in the future if more options are granted.

The discussion provides a more comprehensive review of the financial position and operating results than can be obtained from a reading of the financial statements and footnotes presented elsewhere in this report. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that are based on management's beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the Corporation and Bank. Words such as "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "expects", "forecasts", "intends", "is likely", "plans", "projects", variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions ("Future Factors") that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events (whether anticipated or unanticipated), or otherwise. Future Factors include changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; changes in banking regulation; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies and assessments; the impact of technological advances; governmental and regulatory policy changes; the outcomes of contingencies; trends in customer behavior as well as their ability to repay loans; and changes in the national and local economy. These are representative of the Future Factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement. 12 13 GENERAL The Corporation was formed in 1992 and the Bank was formed in 1993. Principal operations of the Bank commenced on February 28, 1994 when the Bank opened for business at its main office, located at 22290 Michigan Avenue, Dearborn, Michigan. On December 20, 1995, the Bank opened its second office, located at 24935 West Warren Avenue, Dearborn Heights, Michigan. On August 11, 1997, the Bank opened its third office, located at 44623 Five Mile Road, Plymouth Township, Michigan. The Bank is in the process of constructing an office, located at 1325 N. Canton Center Road, Canton Township, Michigan, which is expected to open in the second quarter of 2001. The Bank is also in the process of forming a mortgage company, which will be operational on May 1, 2001. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Corporation reported net income of $320,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, compared to net income of $211,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2000. The increase in net income was primarily due to the improvements in net interest income and the increase in gain on the sale of loans. The improvement in net interest income was primarily due to the increase in the commercial real estate loan and other commercial loan portfolios during the period, somewhat offset by the compression of the net interest margin discussed more fully below. Management expects net interest income to continue to increase during 2001 due to the continued growth in the loan portfolio and the continued diversification of the deposit mix to emphasize transaction based deposit products. The gain on sale of loans, which is based on the level of residential real estate mortgage originations is also expected to continue at this level during the next three months based on the current interest rate environment. These improvements in net income will be partially offset by the start-up costs of a new branch office in Canton Township, Michigan. NET INTEREST INCOME 2001 Compared to 2000. As noted on the two charts on the following pages, net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, was $1,607,000 compared to $1,344,000 for the same period ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $263,000 or 20%. This increase was caused primarily by an increase in average earning assets of $36.7 million between the periods while interest-bearing liabilities grew by $33.6 million. At the same time the Corporation's interest rate spread decreased to 2.28% in 2001 from 2.41% in 2000. The Corporation's net interest margin decreased to 3.55% in 2001 from 3.68% in 2000. The Corporation's decrease in interest rate spread and net interest margin was primarily the result of the increasing cost of the Bank's deposits as a result of a rise in general industry rates during the previous quarter, which was partially offset by the increasing yield on the Bank's loan portfolio. The Bank expects the interest rate spread and net interest margin to improve throughout the remainder of 2001 as time deposits are repriced in a lower interest rate environment more rapidly than loans reprice. 13 14 Average Balances, Interest Rates and Yields. Net interest income is affected by the difference ("interest rate spread") between rates of interest earned on interest-earning assets and rates of interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities and the relative amounts of interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets. When the total of interest-earning assets approximates or exceeds the total of interest-bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income. Financial institutions have traditionally used interest rate spreads as a measure of net interest income. Another indication of an institution's net interest income is its "net yield on interest-earning assets" or "net interest margin," which is net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Corporation's consolidated average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. During the periods indicated, non-accruing loans, if any, are included in the loan category.

The following table analyzes net interest income in terms of changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior year rate) and changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior year volume). Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately to changes due to volume and changes due to rate.

The provision for loan losses was $130,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, compared to $115,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $15,000 or 13% for the three month period. The provision for loan losses for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 is based on the internal analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the increase is primarily the result of loan growth of $4.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2001. The provision for loan losses was based upon management's assessment of relevant factors, including types and amounts of non-performing loans, historical and anticipated loss experience on such types of loans, and current and projected economic conditions. NON-INTEREST INCOME 15 16 2001 Compared to 2000. Non-interest income was $226,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, compared to $124,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $102,000 or 82%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the gain on the sale of loans during the period. The amount of loans sold during the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $14.5 million compared to $4.3 million during the same period in 2000. Management expects that non-interest income will continue to increase as interest rates decline on residential mortgage loans. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE 2001 Compared to 2000. Non-interest expense was $1,217,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, compared to $1,033,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $184,000 or 18%. The largest component of non-interest expense was salaries and employee benefits which amounted to $806,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, compared to $591,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $215,000 or 36%. The primary factor for the increase in salaries and employee benefits was the expansion of the commercial lending, residential lending departments and the operations department. As of March 31, 2001, the number of full time equivalent employees was 50 compared to 40 as of March 31, 2000. Salaries and employee benefits will continue to increase with general staff increases and the opening of the Canton Township branch office. As of March 31, 2000, the Corporation recorded $32,000 in Michigan Single Business Tax expense. During 2001, the Corporation estimates that Michigan Single Business Tax expense to be approximately $100,000. However, in order to take advantage of a tax planning strategy, the Bank is in the process of forming a 100% Bank-owned Mortgage Company that is expected to begin operating by May 1, 2001. The formation of Community Bank Mortgage, Inc. will help management to streamline the operations of its mortgage banking activities and result in estimated savings during 2001 of approximately $50,000 in expenses after the initial cost of formation. In the years thereafter, the Corporation expects to nearly eliminate all Michigan Single Business Tax expense. INCOME TAX PROVISION 2001 Compared to 2000. The income tax expense was $166,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, compared to $109,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $57,000 or 52%. The increase was primarily a result of increased pre-tax income. COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT MARCH 31, 2001 AND DECEMBER 31, 2000 16 17 Assets. Total assets at March 31, 2001 were $200.1 million compared to $193.9 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $6.2 million or 3%. The increase was primarily due to increases in loan volume. Federal Funds Sold. Total federal funds sold at March 31, 2001 were $24.1 million compared to $6.3 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $17.8 million or 283%. The increase was primarily due to the short term deployment of funds that were received as a result of several calls of government agency securities by the issuer of the security. These funds are deployed into federal funds sold until they can be invested into other securities or can be utilized to fund loan volume. Interest bearing deposits with banks. Total interest bearing deposits with banks at March 31, 2001 were $16.3 million compared to $0.0 million at December 31, 2000. This investment was established to provide the Corporation with an alternate short term investment option. This short term investment is a variable-rate certificate of deposit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis that carries a similar rate of return to federal funds sold. Mortgage Loans Held for Sale. Total mortgage loans held for sale at March 31, 2001 were $6.9 million compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $5.8 million or 532%. This increase was a result of a significant increase in the level of residential real estate mortgage loan activity due to decreasing mortgage interest rates during the period. Investment Securities - Available for Sale. Total investment securities - available for sale, at March 31, 2001 were $12.9 million compared to $51.9 million at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $39.0 million or 75%. The decrease in investment securities - available for sale was due to calls by the issuer and the sale of U. S. Government agency securities during the period. The funds from the sale of U. S. Government agency securities, which occurred in January 2001 were utilized to fund loan demand. The funds from the calls of Government agency securities, which occurred in February 2001 and March 2001 were invested in federal funds sold until they can be deployed into loans. The following is a summary of securities that were sold or called by the issuer during the period. Par Amortized Average Value Cost Yield Gain (Loss) --------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- Securities sold $13,755 $13,749 5.75% (5) Securities called by issuer 31,750 31,748 5.58% --- --------------- ---------------- --------------- --------------- $45,505 $45,497 5.63% (5) =============== ================ =============== =============== Please refer to Note B for the amortized cost and estimated market value of investment securities - available for sale.

The Corporation does not hold any securities in the "Held to Maturity" category nor does the Corporation hold or utilize derivatives. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. Federal Home Loan Bank stock was valued at $450,000 at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. Loans. Total loans at March 31, 2001 were $132.2 million compared to $128.1 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $4.1 million or 3%. Major categories of loans included in the loan portfolio are as follows (in thousands): 03/31/01 12/31/00 03/31/00 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Consumer loans $17,840 $18,650 $12,909 Commercial, financial, & other 28,546 26,586 20,828 Commercial real estate construction 3,274 2,290 2,439 Commercial real estate mortgages 54,573 49,900 29,989 Residential real estate mortgages 27,936 30,678 27,794 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- 132,169 128,104 93,959 Allowance for loan losses (1,272) (1,252) (880) ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- $130,897 $126,852 $93,079 =================== =================== =================== The following is a summary of non-performing assets and problems loans (in thousands): 03/31/01 12/31/00 03/31/00 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Over 90 days past due and still accruing $413 $531 $--- Non-accrual loans 291 673 963 Renegotiated loans 362 --- --- Other real estate owned --- --- --- ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- $1,066 $1,204 $963 =================== =================== =================== Non-accrual loans at March 31, 2001 were $291,000, of which, $232,000 were well secured by residential real estate. Non-accrual loans consisted of a $174,000 slow paying residential mortgage, a $58,000 residential mortgage in bankruptcy proceedings and a $59,000 SBA-guaranteed commercial loan. Renegotiated loans consists of one loan that is paid current. Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses was $1.3 million at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. The increase in the amount provided for loan losses was offset by net charge-offs of $110,000 during the period. The allowance for loan losses was based upon management's assessment of relevant factors, including loan growth, types and amounts of non- 18 19 performing loans, historical and anticipated loss experience on such types of loans, and current and projected economic conditions. The following is an analysis of the allowance for loan losses (in thousands): Quarter Ended Year Ended Quarter Ended 03/31/01 12/31/00 03/31/00 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Balance, beginning of year $1,252 $781 $781 Charge-offs: Consumer loans (34) (21) (16) Commercial loans (88) (20) --- Recoveries: Consumer loans 8 --- --- Commercial loans 4 2 --- ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Net charge-offs (110) (39) (16) Additions charged to operations 130 510 115 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Balance, end of period $1,272 $1,252 $880 =================== =================== =================== Allowance to total loans 0.96% 0.98% 0.94% =================== =================== =================== Allowance to nonperforming assets 119.32% 103.99% 91.38% =================== =================== =================== Net charge-offs to average loans 0.08% 0.04% 0.02% =================== =================== =================== Premises and Equipment. Bank premises and equipment at March 31, 2001 was $3.7 million compared to $3.2 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $562,000 or 18%. The increase in premises and equipment was due to work in progress for the Bank's Canton Township office, which will open in May 2001. Accrued Interest Receivable. Accrued interest receivable at March 31, 2001 was $902,000 compared to $1.5 million at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $632,000 or 41%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the Bank's holdings of investment securities - available for sale. Other Assets. Other assets at March 31, 2001 were $192,000 compared to $248,000 at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $56,000 or 23%. The decrease was primarily due to changes in deferred tax assets. 19 20 Deposits. Total deposits at March 31, 2001 were $170.0 million compared to $164.1 million at December 31, 2000, an increase of $5.9 million or 4%. The following is a summary of the distribution of deposits (in thousands): 03/31/01 12/31/00 03/31/00 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Non-interest bearing: Demand $22,290 $19,153 $14,380 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- Interest bearing: Checking $7,533 $6,320 $5,302 Money market 21,087 18,715 15,007 Savings 6,433 4,438 3,827 Time, under $100,000 56,485 56,572 40,935 Time, $100,000 and over 56,201 58,923 43,766 ------------------- ------------------- ------------------- $147,739 $144,968 $108,837 =================== =================== =================== The increase in deposits was primarily due to normal business development, marketing, telemarketing, referral programs and growth strategies which included an annual birthday celebration and major marketing campaign in March 2001, which targeted transaction-based deposit accounts. The increase in deposits was utilized to fund loan demand. Management expects that deposits will continue to grow due to the opening of the Canton Township branch office and continued growth at each branch. Management is working hard to change the mix of the portfolio by focusing more heavily on demand, interest bearing checking, savings and money market, while reducing its reliance on time deposits. Mortgage Payable. Mortgage payable at March 31, 2001 was $460,000 compared to $467,000 at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $7,000 or 1%. The decrease in mortgage payable was a result of making standard monthly payments. Accrued Interest Payable. Accrued interest payable at March 31, 2001 was $866,000 compared to $826,000 at December 31, 2000, an increase of $40,000 or 5%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the volume of interest bearing deposits. Other Liabilities. Other liabilities at March 31, 2001 were $581,000 compared to $701,000 at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $120,000 or 17%. The decrease was primarily due to changes in deferred tax liabilities. 20 21 CAPITAL Stockholders' equity at March 31, 2001 was $28.1 million compared to $27.8 million as of December 31, 2000, an increase of $369,000 or 1%. In prior years, the Corporation had announced that it would repurchase up to 250,000 shares of its outstanding common stock under two stock repurchase programs. Through March 31, 2001, the Corporation was able to repurchase 226,551 shares within Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines primarily related to the volume of market activity. Considering that the Corporation's stock closed at $9.000 per share on March 31, 2001, representing a 72 percent market to book ratio, the Corporation will continue to repurchase shares during 2001.

Levels of liquidity are closely monitored in conjunction with loan funding requirements and deposit outflows. Adequate liquidity protects institutions from raising funds under duress at excessive expense and provides a necessary cushion for occasional unpredictable aberrations in demand. While adequate liquidity is imperative, excessive liquidity in lower yielding cash investments or other easily marketable assets reduces potential interest income. Thus, an appropriate balance must be maintained to protect the institution and at the same time, prudently maximize income opportunities. Sources of liquidity from both assets and liabilities include federal funds sold, securities available for sale, loan repayments, core deposits and a federal funds purchase credit facility. The Corporation has sought to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates by matching the effective maturities or repricing characteristics of the Corporation's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The matching of the assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which the assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive and by monitoring the expected effects of interest rate changes on net interest income. An asset or liability is interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. If the Corporation's assets mature or reprice more quickly or to a greater extent that its liabilities, the Corporation's net portfolio value and net interest income would tend to increase during periods of rising interest rates but decrease during periods of falling interest rates. If the Corporation's assets mature or reprice more slowly or to a lesser extent than its liabilities, its net portfolio value and net interest income would tend to decrease during periods of rising interest rates but increase during periods of falling interest rates. Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis. The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest rate sensitive" and by monitoring an institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap." An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific period if it will mature or reprice within that period. The interest rate sensitivity "gap" is the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceed the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would be expected to adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap would be expected to result in an increase in net interest income, while conversely during a period of declining interest rates, a negative gap would be expected to result in an increase in net interest income and a positive gap would be expected to adversely affect net interest income. 22 23 Different types of assets and liabilities with the same or similar maturities may react differently to changes in overall market rates or conditions, and thus changes in interest rates may affect net interest income positively or negatively even if an institution were perfectly matched in each maturity category. Additionally, the gap analysis does not consider the many factors as banking interest rates move. While the interest rate sensitivity gap is a useful measurement and contributes toward effective asset and liability management, it is difficult to predict the effect of changing interest rates solely on that measure, without accounting for alterations in the maturity or repricing characteristics of the balance sheet that occur during changes in market interest rates. During periods of rising interest rates, the Corporation's assets tend to have prepayments that are slower than those in an interest rate sensitivity gap and would increase the negative gap position. Conversely, during a period of declining interest rates, the Corporation's assets would tend to prepay faster than originally expected thus decreasing the negative gap position. In addition, some of the Corporation's assets, such as adjustable rate mortgages, have caps on the amount by which their interest rates can change in any single period, and therefore may not reprice as quickly as liabilities in the same maturity category. The following table sets forth the amounts of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities outstanding at March 31, 2001, which are expected to mature or reprice in each of the time periods shown below.
