NOTE 3 - LOANS

Loans are reported at the gross amount outstanding, reduced by net deferred loan
fees and an allowance for loan losses. Interest income on loans is recognized
over the terms of the loans based on the unpaid daily principal amount
outstanding. If the collectibility of interest appears doubtful, the accrual
thereof is discontinued. Loan origination fees, net of direct loan origination
costs, are deferred and recognized as income over the life of the related loan
on a level-yield basis. Gains on sales of government guaranteed loans are
recognized as income when the sale occurs.

Major classifications of loans are as follows:

NOTE 4 - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The financial statements include an allowance for estimated losses on loans
based upon management's evaluation of specific loans and inherent losses in the
loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision
for loan losses charged to expense. Management's judgment in determining the
adequacy of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans
and takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of
the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's
ability to pay, overall portfolio quality and review of specific problem loans.
Periodic revisions are made to the allowance when circumstances which
necessitate such revisions become known. Recognized losses are charged to the
allowance for loan losses, while subsequent recoveries are added to the
allowance.

NOTE 5 - EARNINGS PER SHARE AND COMMON STOCK

Basic earnings per share have been computed based on the weighted average number
of common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Stock options are
considered to be common stock equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted
earnings per share.

The reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share is
as follows:



                                                      Net           Common     Per Share

NOTE 6 - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Under the Bank's 1994 Incentive Stock Option and Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan
("the Plan"), the Company may grant stock options to persons who are now or who
during the term of the Plan become directors, officers, or key executives as
defined by the Plan. Stock options granted under the Plan may either be
incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options for federal income tax
purposes. The Company's Board of Directors may grant nonqualified stock options
to any director, and incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options to
any officer, key executive, administrative, or other employee including an
employee who is a director of the Company. Subject to the provisions of the
Plan, the maximum number of shares of Company common stock that may be optioned
or sold is 978,000 shares. Such shares may be treasury, or authorized but
unissued, shares of common stock of the Company. If options granted under the
Plan expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full,
the shares not purchased shall again be available for option for the purposes of
the Plan.



                                       7


Total options granted, exercised, and expired during the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 were 59,002, 31,750 and 6,100, respectively. As of September
30, 2001, 625,702 options for shares were outstanding.

NOTE 7 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In October 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," a replacement
of SFAS No. 125. The new statement revises accounting criteria for
securitizations, other financial asset transfers, and collateral and introduces
new disclosures, but otherwise carries forward most of SFAS No. 125's provisions
without amendment. The statement is effective for reporting periods beginning
after March 31, 2001, and the disclosure provisions are effective for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 2000. The adoption of SFAS 140 has not had a
significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS
No.142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 addresses the
initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets
acquired in a business combination and SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial
recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business
combination whether acquired individually or with a group of other assets. These
standards require all future business combinations to be accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. Goodwill will no longer be amortized but instead
will be subject to impairment tests at least annually. The Company is required
to adopt SFAS No. 141 and 142 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2002.
Goodwill currently carried on the balance sheet will be subject to an initial
assessment for impairment to be completed by the second quarter of 2002. Any
impairment loss as a result of the initial assessment will be recognized as a
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principal. Year to date September
30, 2001 earnings included approximately $93,000 net of tax amortization of
goodwill. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact that the adoption of this
statement will have on its financial position or results of operations,
including whether or not the Company will be required to recognize any
transitional impairment losses.

NOTE 8 - SEGMENT REPORTING

TIB Financial Corp. has four reportable segments: community banking, merchant
bankcard processing, insurance sales, and government guaranteed loan sales and
servicing. The community banking segment's business is to attract deposits from
the public and to use such deposits to make real estate, business and consumer
loans in its primary service area. The merchant bankcard processing segment
processes credit card transactions for local merchants. The insurance agency
offers a full line of commercial and residential coverage as well as life,
health and annuities. The government guaranteed loan segment originates and
sells the government guaranteed portion of loans that qualify for government
guaranteed loan programs, such as those offered by the Small Business
Administration and the U.S. Department of Agricultural Rural Development
Business and Industry Program.

Segment information is presented in accordance with SFAS 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." This standard is based on a
management approach, which requires segmentation based upon the company's
internal organization and disclosure of operating results based upon internal
accounting methods.

respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

The following discussion addresses the factors that have affected the financial
condition and results of operations of TIB Financial Corp. (the "Company") as
reflected in the unaudited consolidated statement of condition as of September
30, 2001, and statement of income for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2001.




                                       10


The Company's net income of $1,033,123 for the third quarter of 2001 was a 4.9%
increase compared to $984,683 for the same period last year. The increase in
net income is attributed to the net of the following: an increase of $351,421
or 8.2%, in net interest income; an increase of $200,000, or 148.1% in
provision for loan losses; an increase of $1,075,741, or 60.2%, in other
income; an increase in other expense of $1,194,122, or 27.3%; and a decrease in
income tax expense of $15,400 or 2.7%.

The Company's net income of $2,772,384 for the first nine months of 2001 was a
13.6% decrease compared to $3,209,006 for the same period last year. The
decrease in net income is attributed to the net of the following: an increase
of $73,684 or 0.6%, in net interest income; an increase of $200,000, or 49.4%
in provision for loan losses; an increase of $2,393,252, or 41.7%, in other
income; an increase in other expense of $3,089,458, or 22.9%; and a decrease in
income tax expense of $385,900 or 20.6%.

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2001 were $0.26
and $0.25 respectively as compared to $0.25 and $0.24 per share in the previous
year's quarter. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 were $0.71 and $0.68 respectively, compared to $0.76 and
$0.74 for the corresponding period ended September 30, 2000. For the first nine
months of 2001, interest expense of $519,042 was incurred on the note payable
related to the July 1st buy back of approximately 10% of the Company's
outstanding stock from the Company's largest shareholder. The net effect of
this transaction was to decrease net income by $324,000 in the first nine
months of 2001 versus $109,000 in the first nine months of 2000. However, the
effect of this transaction did not reduce earnings per share due to the smaller
number of shares outstanding. The percentage decrease in diluted earnings per
share is less than the percentage decrease in net income due to the stock
repurchase effected on July 1, 2000.

$8 million in trust preferred securities were issued in the third quarter of
2000 and an additional $5 million were issued in the third quarter of 2001.
Interest expense on these securities totaled $705,632 for the first nine months
of 2001 as compared to only $57,137 in the year ago period. The trust preferred
securities issuance supplied capital for growth. It is the Company's intention
to grow its traditional banking business in its existing markets and also new
markets and to acquire and promote new products and services.

Other items occurring in the first nine months of 2001 that were absent in the
year ago period were costs related to two branches purchased in South Miami-Dade
County in December of 2000 and expenses to prepare for upcoming de novo
branching in Southwest Florida, and operating expenses for Keys Insurance Agency
purchased on October 31, 2000.

Book value per share increased to $7.09 at September 30, 2001 from $6.72 at
December 31, 2000. The Company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.1075 per share in
each of the first, second, and third quarters of 2001, as compared to $0.105 per
share in each of the first, second, and third quarters of 2000.

Performance of banks is often measured by various ratio analyses. Two widely
recognized indicators are return on average equity and return on average assets.
Annualized return on average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2001
was 13.57% on average equity of $27,243,000, compared to 15.5% on average equity
of $27,621,000 for the same period in 2000. Annualized return on average assets
of $473,849,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was 0.78%, compared
to 1.07% on average assets of $399,726,000 for the same period in 2000.

Net interest income is one measurement of how management has balanced the
Company's interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. The Company's net
interest income is its principal source of income. Interest earning assets for
the Company include loans, federal funds sold, and investment securities. The
Company's interest-bearing liabilities include its deposits, federal funds
purchased, notes payable related to Company shares repurchased, trust preferred
securities, and other short-term borrowings. Net interest income increased
$73,684 or 0.6% to $13.3 million, in the nine months ended September 30, 2001
as compared to the same period last year. Limiting this increase was an
additional $992,627 of interest expense in 2001 related to the $8 million in
trust preferred securities and the $5.25 million in notes payable, both of
which were issued in the third quarter of 2000, and additional interest expense
on the $5 million trust preferred securities issued in the third quarter of
2001. These costs were offset by an increase in interest income resulting from
a higher level of earning assets. Interest from loans increased approximately
$1,312,000 to $22.0 million for the first nine months of 2001 compared to the
prior year period. Interest income from investment securities and federal funds
sold increased approximately $932,000. These interest income increases were
offset by an increase in deposit interest expense attributed to an increase in
the amount of deposits and short term borrowing interest expense approximating
$1,177,000.

The Company's net interest margin decreased to 4.19% in the first nine months of
2001 compared to 4.85% in the first nine months of 2000. The following table
sets forth information with respect to the average balances, interest income and
average

yield by major categories of assets; the average balances, interest expense and
average rate by major categories of liabilities; the average balances of
noninterest-earning assets, noninterest-bearing liabilities and stockholders'
equity; and net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest margin
for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000.

 The decrease in net interest margin from September 30, 2000 to September 30,
2001 is the result of several factors. The decrease is partially attributable to
the interest cost from the notes given in exchange for the stock repurchase and
the issuance of $8 million in trust preferred securities, which is partially
offset by an increase in interest income resulting from a higher level of
earning assets. Both of these transactions occurred during the third quarter of
2000 and resulted in an increase in the overall rate for interest-bearing
liabilities in 2001. In addition, the Company had increased liquidity during the
first nine months of 2001 as compared to the prior year primarily as a result of
the overall volatility in the stock market during 2001. This resulted in an
increase in the average balance of federal funds sold from $7.8 million to $25.6
million. Federal funds are the Company's lowest rate earning asset, and the
increase in the volume of federal funds combined with the decrease in rate
earned on these assets and the cost of these funds, contributed to the decrease
in the net interest margin. In addition, the average balance of time deposits
increased to $146 million during the first nine months of 2001, as compared to
$111 million during the comparable prior year period. Rates on these time
deposit liabilities also increased from 5.83% to 6.02%, reflecting the Company's
stance in being aggressive in their rates in an attempt to increase market
share.

Based on management's evaluation of specific loans and inherent losses within
the loan portfolio, the provision for loan losses was $605,000 for the first
nine months of 2001 as compared to $405,000 in the year ago period. Gross
charged off loans for the first nine months of 2001 were $401,279 with
recoveries of $17,406, resulting in an annualized net charge-off rate of 0.144%
of total loans. This compares to net charge offs during the same period last
year of $8,792. Approximately $343,000 of the current year charge-off relates to
one specific loan. The amount charged off relates to the balance remaining on
this loan after application of the sale proceeds from liquidation of the
production equipment belonging to a manufacturing company in Southwest Florida.

The Company had a provision for loan losses for the three months ended September
30, 2001 of $335,000 compared to $135,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2000. The provision for loan losses reflects management's qualitative and
quantitative assessment of the loan portfolio, net charge-offs and prospects for
collection of delinquent loans. At September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 the
allowance for loan losses amounted to $3,489,000 and $3,267,873, respectively.

The Company's formalized process for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for
loan losses, and the resultant need, if any, for periodic provisions to the
allowance charged to income, includes both individual loan analyses and loan
pool analyses. The individual loan analyses are periodically performed on
individually significant loans, or when otherwise deemed necessary, and
primarily encompass commercial real estate and other commercial loans. The
result of these analyses is the allocation of specific allowances for individual
loans considered impaired as well as certain non-impaired loans.

The loan pool analyses are performed on the balance of the Company's loan
portfolio, primarily consisting of one- to four-family residential and consumer
loans. The pools consist of aggregations of homogeneous loans having similar
credit risk characteristics. Examples of pools defined by the Company for this
purpose are Company-originated, fixed-rate residential loans;
Company-originated, adjustable-rate residential loans; purchased fixed-rate
residential loans; residential second mortgage loans; residential construction
loans; and others. For each pool, the Company has developed a range of
allowances necessary to adequately provide for probable losses inherent in that
pool of loans. These ranges are based upon a number of factors, including the
risk characteristics of the pool, actual loss experience, probable loss
considering current economic conditions, industry norms and the relative
seasoning of the pool. The ranges of allowance developed by the Company are
applied to the outstanding principal balance of the loans in each pool.

The Company's overall allowance also contains an unallocated amount of $38,643
representing approximately one percent of the total allowance for loan loss
which is supplemental to the results of the aforementioned process and takes
into consideration known and probable trends that may affect the
creditworthiness of the loan portfolio as a whole, including national and
local economic conditions, unemployment conditions in the local lending area and
other factors.

At September 30, 2001, the Company had aggregate non-accrual loans of $2,819,315
compared to $502,774 at December 31, 2000. Loans past due 90 days or more and
still accruing totaled $0 and $2,013,790 at September 30, 2001 and December 31,
2000, respectively. Included in non-accrual loans at September 30, 2001 and in
loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing at December 31, 2000, is
$2,021,797 and $2,013,790, respectively, related to the non-guaranteed portion
of one individual loan to construct a lumber mill in Northern Florida. The
non-guaranteed portion of this loan was reclassified from past due and accruing
to nonaccrual at the end of the third quarter of 2001. With this
reclassification, accrual of further interest ceases. Subsequent to September
30, 2001, upon completion of foreclosure on the underlying collateral, the
non-guaranteed portion of this loan was reclassified into other real estate and
other assets based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. The
guaranteed portion of this loan was $1,687,190 at September 30, 2001 and was
guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. Department of Agricultural
(US DA) and is accruing interest. In addition to business real estate and
equipment, the loan was collateralized by the business owner's interest in a
trust. Under provisions of the trust agreement, beneficiaries cannot receive
trust assets until November 2010. Management believes the value of all assets
pledged as collateral for this loan exceeds the unpaid amount. The ratio of
non-performing loans (including loans 90 days or more past due and still
accruing) to total outstanding loans was 0.76% at September 30, 2001 compared to
0.80% at December 31, 2000.

Other income increased $2,393,252 to $8,135,198 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2001 from $5,741,946 in the comparable period last year. The
increase in non interest income is attributable to an increase of $297,360 in
merchant bankcard processing income; a $183,657 increase in service charges on
deposit accounts; a $286,205 increase in net investment security gains; a
$1,131,901 increase in commissions on sales by Keys Insurance Agency (from $0 in
the same nine month period of 2000); a $487,270 increase in other income; a
$469,489 increase in fees on mortgage loans sold at origination; offset by a
decrease of $214,705 in gains on sale of government guaranteed loans; a $51,709
decrease in retail investment services; and a $196,216 decrease in equity in
income (loss), net of goodwill amortization, from the investment in ERAS JV.

Merchant bankcard income increased due to activity volume increases with
existing merchants and incremental volume from new merchants signed up in both
historical and new market areas. The majority of the increase in service charges
on deposit accounts relates to activity associated with the two new branches
added in December 2000 which approximated $121,000 for the nine months of 2001.
The service charge fee amounts charged by the Bank have not increased.
Therefore, the balance of the increase is due to additional activity of existing
customers. Due to the growth in loan outstandings, part of this growth was
funded by liquidating approximately $15.8 million in securities. This resulted
in a gain of $267,897. Two significant items that led to the $487,270 increase
in other income were a gain on the sale of certain mortgage servicing totaling
$163,071 and $101,980 related to the income net of expenses associated with the
director and executive officer deferred compensation arrangements entered into
in December 2000. The low rate environment has caused an increase in residential
mortgage refinancing, which has resulted in an increase in fees on mortgage
loans sold at origination compared to the prior year. Government loan fees
result from a relatively small number of transactions and, therefore, the
revenue recognition from these transactions can vary considerably. Also, certain
borrowers who in the past were candidates for government financing have
increasingly found themselves eligible for various types of conventional
financing, thereby reducing the number of opportunities for government
guaranteed lending. The decrease in income from the Company's investment in ERAS
JV is due to several factors. In 2001, ERAS JV expanded its capacity for item
processing in its main Miami center. This included upgrades in hardware and
software, and additional personnel costs. Also, ERAS established a new item
processing center in Tampa that was a joint venture with Independent Bankers
Bank of Florida. The start up costs and early operational costs approximating
$47,000 for the first nine months of 2001 were absorbed by the joint venture.

Other expense increased $3,089,458 or 22.9% to $16,562,675, in the first nine
months of 2001 as compared to the prior year period. The major areas of
increased expenses relate to interchange fees and processing costs for merchant
bankcard transactions which increased approximately $281,000 over the prior year
period. These costs are volume driven and are more than offset by higher
revenues reported in Other Income. Keys Insurance Agency was added as a new
subsidiary to the Company in the fourth quarter of 2000, and increased the
Company's salary expense by $722,000 in the first nine months of 2001.
Additional net occupancy expense and other expenses added by Keys Insurance
Agency totaled $411,000 for the first nine months of 2001. Additional operating
expenses of approximately $561,000 were also incurred in 2001 as a result of the
two new branches added in Homestead in the fourth quarter of 2000. Expenses for
the de novo branching in Southwest Florida totaled approximately $435,000 in
2001. Salary expense, not counting these new areas, increased approximately
$472,000 in 2001 due to volume related staffing needs and normal pay increases.



                                       13


Total assets at September 30, 2001 were $471,546,929, up from total assets of
$439,320,145 at December 31, 2000. Loans net of deferred loan fees increased
$56,854,013 to $371,939,388 for the first nine months of 2001 from year end
2000. Also, in the same period, federal funds sold decreased $8,971,000, and
investment securities decreased $17,936,497.

At September 30, 2001, the Company had $2,000,349 in short-term borrowings
compared to $1,041,799 at December 31, 2000. Short-term borrowings consist of
securities sold under agreements to repurchase and Treasury tax deposits.

The Company entered into an agreement with the Company's largest shareholder
effective July 1, 2000, to purchase 525,000 shares of the Company's common stock
in exchange for four subordinated debt instruments of the Company totaling
$5,250,000. The interest rate on the notes is 13%, with interest payments
required quarterly. The principal balance is payable in full on October 1, 2010,
the maturity date of the notes. The notes can be prepaid by the Company at par
any time after July 1, 2003. The debt issued by the Company qualifies as Tier 2
capital at the holding company level under applicable regulatory capital
guidelines.

On September 7, 2000, the Company participated in a pooled offering of trust
preferred securities in the amount of $8 million. The Company formed TIBFL
Statutory Trust I (the "Trust"), a wholly-owned statutory trust subsidiary, for
the purpose of issuing the trust preferred securities. The trust used the
proceeds from the issuance of the trust preferred securities to acquire junior
subordinated notes of the Company. The trust preferred securities essentially
mirror the debt securities, carrying a cumulative preferred dividend at a fixed
rate equal to the 10.6% interest rate on the debt securities. The debt
securities and the trust preferred securities each have 30-year lives. The trust
preferred securities and the debt securities are callable by the Company or the
Trust, at their respective option after ten years, and at varying premiums and
sooner in specific events, subject to prior approval by the Federal Reserve
Board, if then required.

In July 2001, the Company participated in a pooled offering of trust preferred
securities in the amount of $5 million. The Company formed TIBFL Statutory Trust
II (the "Trust"), a wholly-owned statutory trust subsidiary, for the purpose of
issuing the trust preferred securities. The trust used the proceeds from the
issuance of the trust preferred securities to acquire junior subordinated notes
of the Company. The trust preferred securities essentially mirror the debt
securities, carrying a cumulative preferred dividend at a variable rate equal to
the interest rate on the debt securities (three month LIBOR plus 358 basis
points). The initial rate in effect at the time of issuance was 7.29% and is
subject to change quarterly. The debt securities and the trust preferred
securities each have 30-year lives. The trust preferred securities and the debt
securities are callable by the Company or the Trust, at their respective option
after five years, and at varying premiums and sooner in specific events, subject
to prior approval by the Federal Reserve Board, if then required. For federal
regulatory purposes, the Company plans to treat the trust preferred securities
as Tier 1 capital up to the maximum amount allowed, and the remainder as Tier 2
capital.

In July 2001, the bank opened its first banking facility in Southwest Florida in
Naples. This facility is primarily used for business banking and commercial and
government lending functions. During the fourth quarter of 2001, the bank will
open its second banking facility in Southwest Florida located in Bonita Springs.
Both facilities are leased under an operating lease.

Subject to receipt of regulatory approval, the Bank plans to open its Southwest
Florida area branch headquarters in downtown Naples in 2002. The land for this
facility was purchased in the first quarter of 2001 at a cost of $2.3 million
and is included in premises and equipment. Estimated costs to complete the
project are $875,000.

On October 31, 2000, the Company purchased Keys Insurance Agency of Monroe
County, Inc. from a Company director. Keys Insurance Agency has three offices in
the Keys and offers a full line of commercial and residential coverage as well
as life, health and annuities. Total consideration paid at closing for the
agency was $1,870,000. This was comprised of $220,000 in the Company's common
stock and $1,650,000 in cash. Under the purchase agreement, annual cash payments
of $110,000 are to be made following each of the first three anniversaries of
the closing date, subject to the agency's ability to achieve certain earning
thresholds. Any of this additional consideration that is paid at the end of each
contingency period, will at that time be recorded as goodwill and increase the
total recorded purchase price of the agency.

On September 25, 2001, Keys Insurance Agency, Inc. purchased BonData Group
Limited, Inc., a Ft. Myers, Florida based insurance agency specializing in bond
underwriting and placement. Total consideration paid at closing for the agency
was $273,000. This was comprised of approximately $68,000 in the Company's
common stock and approximately $205,000 in cash. Under the purchase agreement,
annual cash payments of $24,000 are to be made following each of the first two
anniversaries of the closing date, subject to the agency's ability to achieve
certain earning thresholds. Any of this additional consideration that is paid at
the end



                                       14


of each contingency period, will at that time be recorded as goodwill and
increase the total recorded purchase price of the agency.

Management believes, as of September 30, 2001, that the Company and the Bank met
all capital requirements to which they are subject. As discussed previously in
the Management's Discussion and Analysis section, the Company has included in
Tier 1 Capital a portion of the trust preferred securities that were issued in
September 2000 and July 2001.

LIQUIDITY

The goal of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of an adequate
level of funds to meet the loan demand and deposit withdrawal needs of the
Company's customers. The Company manages the levels, types and maturities of
earning assets in relation to the sources available to fund current and future
needs to ensure that adequate funding will be available at all times.

The Bank has invested in Federal Home Loan Bank stock for the purpose of
establishing credit lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The credit
availability to the Bank is equal to 14 percent of the Bank's total assets as
reported on the most recent quarterly financial information submitted to the
regulators. The credit availability approximated $65.5 million at September 30,
2001. Any advances are secured by the Bank's one-to-four family residential
mortgage loans.

The Bank has an unsecured line of credit for federal funds purchased from its
principal correspondent bank totaling $7,500,000. Securities sold under
agreements to repurchase (wholesale) represent a wholesale agreement with a
correspondent bank which is collateralized by a U.S. Treasury note. The Bank
also has several securities sold under repurchase agreements (retail) with
commercial account holders whereby the Bank sweeps the customer's accounts on a
daily basis and pays interest on these amounts. These agreements are
collateralized by investment securities chosen by the Bank.

(A)  40% of outstanding balance considered repricable immediately and 60%
     repricable in the furthest time period.

(B) Savings Deposits considered repricable in the one year time horizon.

The Company is cumulatively asset sensitive in the over 5 year time frame and
cumulatively liability sensitive in each of the 3 month or less, 4 to 6 months,
7 to 12 month and 1 to 5 year timeframes. Certain liabilities such as NOW and
passbook savings accounts, while technically subject to immediate repricing in
response to changing market rates, historically do not reprice as quickly nor to
the extent as other interest sensitive accounts. Therefore, to include the
entire balance of these liability accounts in the earliest repricing period
would be unrealistic. To compensate for the fact that changes in general market
interest rates will not be fully reflected in changes in NOW rates, only 40% of
NOW balances is included as immediately rate sensitive based on the Company's
own and industry repricing experience. Also, passbook savings will not reprice
as quickly as market rates and therefore the repricing of savings deposits is
included in the 7 to 12 month repricing period, based on the Company's repricing
experience. Because of non-interest bearing liabilities, total interest-earning
assets are substantially greater than the total interest-bearing liabilities and
therefore over time the effects on net interest income from changes in asset
yield will be greater than the change in expense from liability cost.
Accordingly, if market interest rates should decrease, the net interest margin
would decrease. Conversely, if rates increase the net interest margin would over
time increase.

Even in the near term, the $46.5 million one year cumulative negative
sensitivity gap exaggerates the probable effects on earnings in a rising rate
environment for two reasons. First, the liabilities subject to repricing are
predominately not indexed to any specific market rate and therefore offer the
Company the opportunity to delay or diminish any rate repricings. Second, a
static gap model does not factor the effects of growing volumes which would
likely include greater additional rate sensitive assets than rate sensitive
liabilities.

Interest-earning assets and other time deposits are presented based on their
contractual terms. It is anticipated that run off in any deposit category will
be approximately offset by new deposit generation. Since the Company has
experienced steady growth in deposits, no net run off in any deposit category is
assumed in the interest rate sensitivity table. It is the Company's policy to
maintain its cumulative one year gap ratio in the -20% to +10% range. At
September 30, 2001, the Company was within this range with a one year cumulative
sensitivity ratio of -10.9%.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

All financial institutions have financial instruments which are subject to
market risk comprised of interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate
risk, commodity price risk and other relevant market risks, such as equity price
risks. The Company has assessed its market risk as predominately interest rate
risk.

The following interest rate sensitivity analysis information as of September 30,
2001 was developed using simulation analysis of the Company's sensitivity to
changes in net interest income under varying assumptions for changes in market
interest rates. Specifically, the model derives expected interest income and
interest expense resulting from an immediate and parallel shift in the yield
curve in the amounts shown.

These rate changes are matched with known repricing intervals and assumptions
for new growth net of expected prepayments. The assumptions are based primarily
on experience in the Company's market under varying rate environments. The
imbedded options that the Company's loan customers possess to refinance are
considered for purposes of this analysis and cause the larger decreases in
income in a declining rate scenario versus the income increases in the same size
rising rate scenario.

This analysis intentionally exaggerates interest sensitivity. For the sake of
simplicity and comparability, an immediate change in rates is assumed. However,
any significant change in actual market rates would probably be phased in over
an extended period of time. This phase in would reduce the net interest income
effects for any absolute change in rates.

The Company attempts to retain interest rate neutrality by generating mostly
adjustable rate loans and managing the securities and Fed Funds positions to
offset the repricing characteristics of the deposit liabilities.
