AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Prosperity Bank (the "Bank") and Prosperity Holdings, Inc. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company on a consolidated basis, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 10-K filed on March 24, 1999. Operating results for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. 2. INCOME PER COMMON SHARE The following table illustrates the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share data): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30 ------------------------ ------------------------ 1999 1998 1999 1998 -------- --------- --------- --------- Net income available to common shareholders $ 1,585 $ 1,080 $ 4,522 $ 3,138 Weighted average common shares outstanding 5,195 3,990 5,183 3,990 Potential dilutive common shares 206 101 202 101 -------- --------- --------- --------- Weighted average common shares and equivalents outstanding 5,401 4,091 5,385 4,091 -------- --------- --------- --------- Basic earnings per common share $ 0.31 $ 0.27 $ 0.87 $ 0.79 ======== ========= ========= ========= Diluted earnings per common share $ 0.29 $ 0.26 $ 0.84 $ 0.77 ======== ========= ========= ========= 7 8 PROSPERITY BANCSHARES, INC AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 (UNAUDITED) 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which requires that all components of comprehensive income and total comprehensive income be reported on one of the following: (1) the statement of operations, (2) the statement of shareholders' equity, or (3) a separate statement of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to shareholders' equity, except those due to investments by owners (changes in capital surplus) and distributions to owners (dividends). The Company is reporting comprehensive income on its statement of changes in shareholders' equity. SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," establishes new standards for public companies to report information about their operating segments, products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The statement is effective for financial statements issued for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131 effective January 1, 1998. Adoption had no material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements. SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for Hedging Activities," establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. This statement is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2000. Management believes the implementation of this pronouncement will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. 4. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On October 1, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition ("Acquisition") of South Texas Bancshares, Inc. ("South Texas"). In connection with the Acquisition, the Commercial National Bank of Beeville "(CNB"), a wholly owned subsidiary of South Texas, was merged with the Bank. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") is a registered bank holding company that derives substantially all of its revenues and income from the operation of First Prosperity Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank is a full-service bank that provides a broad line of financial products and services to small and medium-sized businesses and consumers through 12 full-service banking locations, three of which are located in the greater Houston metropolitan area. Statements and financial discussion and analysis contained in the Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control. The important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, without limitation: o changes in interest rates and market prices, which could reduce the Company's net interest margins, asset valuations and expense expectations; o changes in the levels of loan prepayments and the resulting effects on the value of the Company's loan portfolio; 8 9 o changes in local economic and business conditions which adversely affect the Company's customers and their ability to transact profitable business with the Company, including the ability of the Company's borrowers to repay their loans according to their terms or a change in the value of the related collateral. o increased competition for deposits and loans adversely affecting rates and terms; o the timing, impact and other uncertainties of future acquisitions, including the Company's ability to identify suitable future acquisition candidates, the success or failure in the integration of their operations, and the ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; o increased credit risk in the Company's assets and increased operating risk caused by a material change in commercial, consumer and/or real estate loans as a percentage of the total loan portfolio; o the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of and provisions made to the allowance for credit losses; o changes in the availability of funds resulting in increased costs or reduced liquidity; o increased asset levels and changes in the composition of assets and the resulting impact on the Company's capital levels and regulatory capital ratios; o the Company's ability to acquire, operate and maintain cost effective and efficient systems without incurring unexpectedly difficult or expensive but necessary technological changes (including changes to address Year 2000 data systems issues); o the Company's ability to complete its project to assess and resolve any Year 2000 problems on time; o the loss of senior management or operating personnel and the potential inability to hire qualified personnel at reasonable compensation levels; and o changes in statutes and government regulations or their interpretations applicable to bank holding companies and the Company's present and future banking and other subsidiaries, including changes in tax requirements and tax rates. OVERVIEW The Company showed positive earnings growth for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 due to the increase in loan volume and the acquisition of Union State Bank in East Bernard, Texas (the "Union Acquisition") in the fourth quarter of 1998, accounted for under the purchase method. Net income available to common shareholders was $1.6 million ($0.29 per common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 compared with $1.1 million ($0.26 per common share on a diluted basis) for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, an increase of $505,000, or 46.8%. The Company posted returns on average common equity of 14.79% and 15.77% and returns on average assets of 1.42% and 1.28% for the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 net income available to common shareholders was $4.5 million ($0.84 per common share on a diluted basis) compared with $3.1 million ($0.77 per common share on a diluted basis) for the same period in 1998, an increase of $1.4 million or 44.1%. Total assets were $444.4 million at September 30, 1999 compared with $436.3 million at December 31, 1998. Total loans increased to $197.5 million at September 30, 1999 from $170.5 million at December 31, 1998, an increase of $27.0 million, or 15.9%. Total deposits were $399.7 million at September 30, 1999 compared with $390.7 million at December 31, 1998, an increase of $9.1 million, or 2.3%. Shareholders' equity increased $1.5 million or 3.5%, to $42.9 million at September 30, 1999 compared with $41.4 million at December 31, 1998. 9 10 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Interest Income Net interest income was $4.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 compared with $3.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, an increase of $1.1 million, or 34.0%. Net interest income increased as a result of an increase in average interest-earning assets to $413.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $310.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, an increase of $103.3 million, or 33.3%. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis increased to 4.26% from 4.23% for the same periods, principally due to a slightly lower decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets than the decrease in the rate on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income increased $3.4 million, or 35.8%, to $12.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $9.4 million for the same period in 1998. This increase is mainly attributable to higher average interest-earning assets and higher average loans. 10 11 The Company's net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as a "volume change." It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as a "rate change." The following tables set forth, for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the average amounts outstanding, the interest earned or paid on such amounts, and the average rate earned or paid for the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 and the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. The tables also set forth the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities, and the net interest margin on average total interest-earning assets for the same periods.

The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 decreased $10,000 to $205,000 from $215,000 in the corresponding period last year. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $75,000, an increase of $5,000 from $70,000 for the same period in 1998. Noninterest Income The Company's primary sources of noninterest income are service charges on deposit accounts and other banking service related fees. Noninterest income totaled $789,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 compared with $586,000 for the same period in 1998, an increase of $203,000, or 34.6%. Noninterest income increased $412,000, or 22.6%, to $2.2 million for the nine month period ending September 30, 1999 from $1.8 million for the same period in 1998. The increase in noninterest income was principally due to the Union Acquisition. The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major categories of noninterest income: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, -------------------- -------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ------- ------ ------- ------- (Dollars in thousands) Service charges on deposit accounts....... $ 677 $ 530 $ 1,919 $ 1,636 Other noninterest income.................. 112 56 318 189 ------- ------ ------- -------- Total noninterest income.............. $ 789 $ 586 $ 2,237 $ 1,825 ======= ======= ======= ======== Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense totaled $2.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 compared with $2.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, an increase of $539,000, or 24.6%. Noninterest expense totaled $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, an increase of $1.8 million, or 26.7%, from $6.4 million for the same period in 1998. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to the Union Acquisition. 14 15 The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major categories of noninterest expense: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, -------------------- ------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 --------- --------- -------- ------- (Dollars in thousands) Salaries and employee benefits....................... $ 1,394 $ 1,100 $ 4,213 $ 3,214 Non-staff expenses: Net occupancy expense............................ 249 146 671 396 Equipment depreciation........................... 87 126 261 375 Data processing.................................. 209 202 625 571 Professional fees................................ 66 36 162 82 Regulatory assessments and FDIC insurance........ 21 18 64 53 Ad valorem and franchise taxes................... 51 54 149 145 Goodwill amortization............................ 162 120 485 354 Other............................................ 495 393 1,538 1,259 --------- --------- -------- ------- Total non-staff expenses..................... 1,340 1,095 3,955 3,235 Total noninterest expense.................... $ 2,734 $ 2,195 $ 8,168 $ 6,449 ========= ========= ======== ======== Salaries and employee benefit expenses were $1.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 compared with $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, an increase of $294,000, or 26.7%. For the nine month period ended September 30, 1999, salaries and employee benefits totaled $4.2 million, an increase of $999,000, or 31.1%, from $3.2 million for the nine month period ending September 30, 1998. The change was due primarily to an increase in the number of employees due to the Union Acquisition and regular annual employee salary increases. Non-staff expenses increased $245,000, or 22.4%, to $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 compared with the same period in 1998. For the nine month period ended September 30, 1999, non-staff expenses increased $720,000, or 22.3%, to $4.0 million from $3.2 million for the same period in 1998. The increase was principally due to the Union Acquisition. Income Taxes For the three month period ended September 30, 1999, income tax expense increased $259,000, or 53.2%, to $746,000 from $487,000 for the same period in 1998. Income tax expense increased $689,000, or 48.3%, to $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $1.4 million for the same period in 1998. Both increases were primarily attributable to higher pretax net earnings. FINANCIAL CONDITION Loan Portfolio Total loans were $197.5 million at September 30, 1999, an increase of $27.0 million, or 15.9% from $170.5 million at December 31, 1998. Loan growth occurred primarily in commercial mortgages and 1-4 family residential loans. Period end loans comprised 47.0% of average earning assets at September 30, 1999 compared with 51.9% at December 31, 1998. 15 16 The following table summarizes the loan portfolio of the Company by type of loan as of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998: September 30, December 31, 1999 1998 ------------------ ------------------- Amount Percent Amount Percent --------- ------- --------- ------- (Dollars in thousands) Commercial and industrial........ $ 18,307 9.3% $ 16,972 10.0% Real estate: Construction and land development............... 3,631 1.8 1,727 1.0 1-4 family residential......... 89,795 45.5 80,062 46.9 Home equity.................... 10,581 5.4 8,077 4.7 Commercial mortgages........... 30,843 15.6 22,240 13.1 Farmland....................... 6,579 3.3 6,148 3.6 Multifamily residential........ 1,610 0.8 1,090 0.6 Agriculture...................... 17,317 8.8 14,107 8.3 Consumer......................... 18,837 9.5 20,055 11.8 --------- ------- --------- ------- Total loans................. $ 197,500 100.0% $ 170,478 100.0% ========= ======= ========= ======= Allowance for Credit Losses Management actively monitors the Company's asset quality and provides specific loss allowances when necessary. Loans are charged-off against the allowance for credit losses when appropriate. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for credit losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations. As of September 30, 1999, the allowance for credit losses amounted to $2.1 million, or 1.05% of total loans compared with $1.9 million, or 1.09% of total loans at December 31, 1998. Set forth below is an analysis of the allowance for credit losses for the periods indicated: Nine Months Ended Year Ended September 30, December 31, 1999 1998 ----------------- ------------ (Dollars in thousands) Average loans outstanding.......................... $ 183,213 $ 143,196 ================= ============ Gross loans outstanding at end of period........... $ 197,500 $ 170,478 ================= ============ Allowance for credit losses at beginning of period.............................. $ 1,850 $ 1,016 Balance acquired with Union Acquisition............ -- 661 Provision for credit losses........................ 205 239 Charge-offs: Commercial and industrial........................

The Company generally places a loan on nonaccrual status and ceases accruing interest when the payment of principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days, or earlier in some cases, unless the loan is in the process of collection and the underlying collateral fully supports the carrying value of the loan. The Company generally charges off all loans before attaining nonaccrual status. The following table presents information regarding nonperforming assets as of the dates indicated: September 30, December 31, 1999 1998 ------------- ------------ (Dollars in thousands) Nonaccrual loans.................................. $ -- $ 5 Accruing loans 90 or more days past due........... -- -- ------------- ------------ Total nonperforming loans...................... -- 5 Other real estate................................. 125 135 ------------- ------------ Total nonperforming assets..................... $ 125 $ 140 ============= ============ Securities Securities totaled $211.2 million at September 30, 1999 compared with $227.7 million at December 31, 1998, a decrease of $16.5 million, or 7.2%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in loans. At September 30, 1999, securities represented 47.5% of total assets compared with 52.2% of total assets at December 31, 1998. Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $6.0 million and $6.1 million at September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. Deposits Total deposits were $399.7 million at September 30, 1999 compared with $390.7 million at December 31, 1998, an increase of $9.1 million. At September 30, 1999, noninterest-bearing deposits accounted for approximately 22.1% of total deposits compared with 21.8% of total deposits at December 31, 1998. Interest-bearing deposits totaled $311.5 million, or 77.9%, of total deposits at September 30, 1999 compared with $305.7 million, or 78.3%, of total deposits at December 31, 1998. Borrowings The Company had no Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances at September 30, 1999, compared with $2.4 million in FHLB advances at December 31, 1998. The amount of FHLB advances the Company has at any given time is based on the Company's daily liquidity position and will increase or decrease according to the Company's funding needs. Liquidity Effective management of balance sheet liquidity is necessary to fund growth in earning assets and to pay liability maturities, depository customers' withdrawal requirements and shareholders' dividends. Thc Company has numerous sources of liquidity including a significant portfolio of shorter-term assets, marketable investment 17 18 securities (excluding those presently classified as "held-to-maturity"), increases in customers' deposits, and access to borrowing arrangements. Available borrowing arrangements maintained by the Company include federal funds lines with other commercial banks and an advancement arrangement with the FHLB. Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily marketable or which will mature in the near future. As of September 30, 1999, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $15.2 million, down from $18.3 million at December 31, 1998. The decline was due primarily to an increase in loans. Capital Resources Total shareholders' equity was $42.9 million at September 30, 1999 compared with $41.4 million at December 31, 1998, an increase of $1.5 million, or 3.5%. The increase was primarily due to net earnings of $4.5 million, cash dividends paid of $779,000, and an unrealized loss on available for sale securities of $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Both the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, with respect to the Company, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), with respect to the Bank, have established certain minimum risk-based capital standards that apply to bank holding companies and federally insured banks. As of September 30, 1999, the Company's Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios were 18.32%, 19.38% and 8.21%, respectively. As of September 30, 1999, the Bank's risk-based capital ratios were above the levels required for the Bank to be designated as "well capitalized" by the FDIC, with Tier-1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and leverage capital ratios of 14.22%, 15.29% and 6.37%, respectively. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE General. The Year 2000 risk involves computer programs and computer software that are not able to perform without interruption into the Year 2000. If computer systems do not correctly recognize the date change from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000, computer applications that rely on the date field could fail or create erroneous results. Such erroneous results could affect interest, payment or due dates or cause the temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in similar normal business activities. If these issues are not addressed by the Company, its suppliers and its borrowers, there could be a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. State of Readiness. The Company formally initiated its Year 2000 project and plan in November 1997 to insure that its operational and financial systems will not be adversely affected by year problems. The Company has formed a Year 2000 project team and the Board of Directors and management are supporting all compliance efforts and allocating the necessary resources to ensure completion. An inventory of all systems and products (including both information technology ("IT") and non-informational technology ("non-IT") systems) that could be affected by the Year 2000 date change has been developed, verified and categorized as to its importance to the Company and an assessment of all major IT and critical non-IT systems has been completed. This assessment involved inputting test data which simulates the Year 2000 date change into such IT systems and reviewing the system output for accuracy. The Company's assessment of critical non-IT systems involved reviewing such systems to determine whether they were date dependent. Based on such assessment, the Company believes that none of its critical non-IT systems are date dependent. The software for the Company's systems is provided through service bureaus and software vendors. The Company has contacted all of its third party vendors and software providers and is requiring them to demonstrate and represent that the products provided are or will be Year 2000 compliant and has planned a program of testing compliance. The Company's service bureau, which performs substantially all of the Company's data processing functions, has warranted in writing that its software is Year 2000 compliant and pursuant to applicable regulatory guidelines the Company has reviewed the results of user group tests performed by the service provider to verify this assertion. The Company believes it would have recourse against the service provider for actual damages incurred by the Company in the event the service provider breaches this warranty. In addition, the FDIC has reviewed the Company's compliance with Year 2000 issues. 18 19 The Company has completed the following phases of its Year 2000 plan: (i) recognizing Year 2000 issues, (ii) assessing the impact of Year 2000 issues on the Company's critical systems (iii) upgrading systems as necessary to resolve those Year 2000 issues which have been identified and (iv) developing a business resumption contingency plan. The Company has implemented and tested all of its mission critical systems and continues to monitor customer awareness of Year 2000 issues. Costs of Compliance. Management does not expect the costs of bringing the Company's systems into Year 2000 compliance will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. The Company has budgeted $10,000 to address Year 2000 issues. As of September 30, 1999, the Company has incurred $6,000 in relation to Year 2000. The largest potential internal risk to the Company concerning Year 2000 is the malfunction of its data processing system. In the event its data processing system does not function properly, the Company is prepared to perform functions manually. The Company believes it is in compliance with regulatory guidelines regarding Year 2000 compliance, including the timetable for achieving compliance. Risks Related to Third Parties. The impact of Year 2000 noncompliance by third parties with which the Company transacts business cannot be accurately gauged. The Company identified its largest dollar deposit (aggregate deposits over $500,000) and loan ($250,000 or more) customers and, based on information available to the Company, conducted an evaluation to determine which of those customers are likely to be affected by Year 2000 issues. The Company then surveyed those customers deemed at risk to determine their readiness with respect to Year 2000 issues, including their awareness of Year 2000 issues, plans to address such issues and progress with respect to such plans. The responses indicated that the customers are aware of Year 2000 issues, are in the process of updating their systems and have informed the Company that they believe they will be ready for the Year 2000 date change by the end of 1999. The Company will continue to monitor its customers deemed at risk and will encourage customers to resolve any identified problems. To the extent a problem is identified, the Company intends to monitor the customer's progress in resolving such problem. In the event that Year 2000 noncompliance adversely affects a borrower, the Company may be required to charge-off the loan to that borrower. For a discussion of possible effects of such charge-offs, see "--Contingency Plans" below. In the event that Year 2000 noncompliance causes a depositor to withdraw funds, the Company plans to maintain additional cash on hand. The Company also has access to the FHLB and Federal Reserve Discount Windows to address any additional liquidity needs. With respect to its borrowers, the Company includes in its loan documents a Year 2000 disclosure form and an addendum to the loan agreement in which the borrower represents and warrants its Year 2000 compliance to the Company. Customer Awareness. The Company has implemented a series of notifications to its customers via statement inserts, statement messages and community forums. Future plans for increasing customer awareness will include advertising and signs regarding the Year 2000 issue located in the lobby of each banking location. Contingency Plans. The Company has finalized its contingency planning with respect to the Year 2000 date change and believes that if its own systems should fail, the Company could convert to a manual entry system for a period of up to six months without significant losses. The Company believes that any mission critical systems could be recovered and operating within seven days. In the event that the Federal Reserve is unable to handle-electronic funds transfers and check clearing, the Company does not expect the impact to be material to its financial condition or results of operations as long as the Company is able to utilize an alternative electronic funds transfer and clearing source. As part of its contingency planning, the Company has reviewed its loan customer base and the potential impact on capital of Year 2000 noncompliance. Based upon such review, using what it considers to be a reasonable worst case scenario, the Company has assumed that certain of its commercial borrowers whose businesses are most likely to be affected by Year 2000 noncompliance would be unable to repay their loans, resulting in charge-offs of loan amounts in excess of collateral values. If such were the case, the Company believes that it is unlikely that its exposure would exceed $100,000, although there are no assurances that this amount will not be substantially higher. The Company does not believe that this amount is material enough for the Company to adjust its current methodology for making provisions to the allowance for credit losses. In addition, the Company plans to maintain additional cash on hand to meet any unusual deposit withdrawal activity. 19 20 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company manages market risk, which for the Company is primarily interest rate risk, through its Asset Liability Committee which is composed of senior officers of the Company, in accordance with policies approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company uses simulation analysis to examine the potential effects of market changes on net interest income and market value. It considers macroeconomic variables, Company strategy, liquidity and other factors as it quantifies market risk. There have been no material changes of this nature since the Company's Form 10-K filing on March 24, 1999. See Form 10-K, Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations-Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity". 20 21 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
