NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Capitol Bancorp Ltd. ("Capitol") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The statements do, however, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature (in accordance with Rule 10-01(b)(8) of Regulation S-X) which Capitol considers necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2000 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. Certain 2000 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation. NOTE B -- NEW BANKS AND PENDING BANK APPLICATIONS Sunrise Bank of San Diego, located in San Diego, California, opened in January 2001. It is majority-owned by Sunrise Capital Corporation which is majority-owned by Sun Community Bancorp Limited, a subsidiary of Capitol. At June 30, 2001, efforts were underway for formation of new banks in California and Nevada.

Proceeds from the offering approximated $1.5 million and will be used for debt retirement and additional investment in bank development activities. NOTE E -- IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, requires all derivatives to be recognized in financial statements and to be measured at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are included in income, or in comprehensive income, depending on whether the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting and the type of hedging instrument involved. This new standard became effective January 1, 2001 and had no effect on Capitol's financial statements. In early July 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council each issued new guidance (some of which remains to be finalized) on accounting for loan loss reserves (also known as allowances for loan losses). While the new guidance does not change prior accounting rules in this area, it provides additional clarification and guidance on how such reserves and allowances may be documented by management. Page 8 of 20 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CAPITOL BANCORP LTD. - CONTINUED NOTE E - IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED) In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Statement No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under a prior standard of purchase accounting, eliminating the so-called pooling-method which was used to account for some business combinations. Statement No. 141 requires that the purchase method be used for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. This new standard is not expected to have a material effect on Capitol's consolidated financial statements. Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged against earnings, but instead to be reviewed for impairment. Amortization of goodwill ceases upon adoption of the Statement, which for most companies, will be January 1, 2002. This new standard requires that goodwill be reviewed periodically for impairment and, accordingly, impairment adjustments of goodwill be charged against earnings, when determined. Management has not completed its analysis of this new standard, however, its preliminary review has concluded that, upon implementation, future amortization of goodwill will be reduced or eliminated. A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to Capitol's financial statements. NOTE F -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In July 2001, Capitol participated in two private placements of pooled trust-preferred securities. One is a variable rate security totaling $15 million and the second is a fixed-rate security of $10 million. Both have similar terms (due in 2031) and, subject to certain provisions, may be repaid early. Net proceeds from these transactions approximated $25 million and will be used for debt repayment, bank development and other corporate purposes. These securities are expected to be treated as elements of capital for regulatory purposes. [The remainder of this page intentionally left blank] Page 9 of 20 PART I, ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets approximated $1.88 billion at June 30, 2001, an increase of $250 million from the December 31, 2000 level of $1.63 billion. The balance sheets include Capitol and its consolidated subsidiaries. Portfolio loans increased during the six-month period by approximately $209 million. Loan growth was funded primarily by higher levels of time deposits. The majority of portfolio loan growth occurred in commercial loans, which increased approximately $200 million, consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities. Portfolio loan growth in 2001 is net of about $20.2 million of commercial loans sold to other financial institutions. Loans held for resale (principally residential mortgage loans to be sold in secondary markets) nearly doubled in the first half of 2001, mainly due to higher loan origination volumes during periods of lower interest rates. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2001 approximated $20.4 million or 1.31% of total portfolio loans, a slight increase from the year-end 2000 ratio of 1.29%. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb potential losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on evaluation of the portfolio (including volume, amount and composition, potential impairment of individual loans and concentrations of credit), past loss experience, current economic conditions, loan commitments outstanding and other factors. [The remainder of this page intentionally left blank] Page 10 of 20 The table below summarizes portfolio loan balances and activity in the allowance for loan losses for the interim periods (in thousands): 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- Allowance for loan losses at January 1 $ 17,449 $ 12,639 Loans charged-off: Commercial 477 1,093 Real estate mortgage 10 67 Installment 139 68 ---------- ---------- Total charge-offs 626 1,228 Recoveries: Commercial 258 154 Real estate mortgage 3 4 Installment 15 9 ---------- ---------- Total recoveries 276 167 ---------- ---------- Net charge-offs 350 1,061 Additions to allowance charged to expense 3,321 3,366 ---------- ---------- Allowance for loan losses at June 30 $ 20,420 $ 14,944 ========== ========== Average total portfolio loans for period ended June 30 $1,463,142 $1,135,410 ========== ========== Ratio of net charge-offs (annualized) to average portfolio loans outstanding 0.04% 0.19% ========== ========== For internal purposes, management allocates the allowance to all loan classifications. The amounts allocated in the following table (in thousands), include all loans for which, based on Capitol's loan rating system, management has concerns, and should not be interpreted as an indication of future charge-offs. In addition, amounts allocated are not intended to reflect amounts that may be available for future losses. June 30, 2001 December 31, 2000 ----------------------- ----------------------- Percentage Percentage of Total of Total Portfolio Portfolio Amount Loans Amount Loans ---------- ----- ---------- ----- Commercial $ 11,005 0.70% $ 8,307 0.61% Real estate mortgage 200 0.01 147 0.01 Installment 560 0.04 551 0.04 Unallocated 8,655 0.55 8,444 0.62 ---------- ----- ---------- ----- Total allowance for loan losses $ 20,420 1.31% $ 17,449 1.29% ========== ===== ========== ===== Total portfolio loans outstanding $1,564,666 $1,355,798 ========== ========== Page 11 of 20 In addition to the allowance for loan losses, certain commercial loans in Michigan and Indiana are enrolled in state-sponsored loan programs and have additional reserves established to provide for loss protection. At June 30, 2001, total loans under these programs approximated $33.7 million. Reserves related to these loans, which are represented by earmarked funds on deposit at some of the bank subsidiaries, approximated $1.5 million and are not included in the allowance for loan losses. In 2001, the Michigan agency announced revised plans to terminate its loan program in 2002. Impaired loans (i.e., loans for which there is a reasonable probability that borrowers would be unable to repay all principal and interest due under the contractual terms of the loan documents) were not material in 2000 and through June 30, 2001. Nonperforming loans (i.e., loans which are 90 days or more past due and loans on nonaccrual status) are summarized below (in thousands): June 30 Dec 31 2001 2000 ------- ------- Nonaccrual loans: Commercial $ 6,444 $ 4,082 Real estate 388 163 Installment 112 171 ------- ------- Total nonaccrual loans 6,944 4,416 Past due (>90 days) loans: Commercial 2,770 1,656 Real estate 972 534 Installment 378 151 ------- ------- Total past due loans 4,120 2,341 ------- ------- Total nonperforming loans $11,064 $ 6,757 ======= ======= Nonperforming loans increased approximately $4.3 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2001. Most of the nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2001 are a small number of loans in various stages of resolution which management believes to be adequately collateralized or otherwise appropriately considered in its determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Other real estate owned (generally real estate acquired through foreclosure or a deed in lieu of foreclosure and classified as a component of other assets) approximated $2.2 million at June 30, 2001 and $3.1 million at December 31, 2000.

(2) Commenced operations as a DE NOVO bank in 2001. Net interest income increased 22.6% during the six-month period versus the corresponding period of 2000. This increase is attributable to the expansion in number of banks and the banks' growth. Noninterest income increased in 2001 to $4.6 million for the six-month period, as compared with $2.8 million in 2000. Service charge revenue and trust fee income both increased due to volume in the 2001 period by 59.7% and 89.7%, respectively, compared to 2000. Fees from origination of non-portfolio residential mortgage loans more than doubled in the 2001 period, compared to 2000, due to higher volume resulting from periods of lower interest rates. Provisions for loan losses approximated $3,321,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $3,366,000 during the corresponding 2000 period. The provisions for loan losses are based upon management's analysis of the allowance for loan losses, as previously discussed. Page 14 of 20 Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 approximated $32 million compared with $25 million in 2000. The increase in noninterest expense is associated with newly formed banks, growth and increases in general operating costs. Increases in both employee compensation and occupancy mostly relate to the growth in the number of banks within the consolidated group. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The principal funding source for asset growth and loan origination activities is deposits. Total deposits increased $228.7 million for the six-month 2001 period, compared to $179.1 million in 2000. Such growth occurred in all deposit categories, with the majority coming from time deposits. Capitol's banks generally do not rely on brokered deposits as a key funding source; brokered deposits approximated $118 million as of June 30, 2001, or about 7.2% of total deposits. Brokered deposits, as a funding source, have increased in recent periods, due to competitive environments and increased depositor usage of the Internet, and may similarly increase in future periods. Noninterest-bearing deposits approximated 15% of total deposits at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000. Levels of noninterest-bearing deposits fluctuate based on customers' transaction activity. Interim 2001 deposit growth was deployed primarily into commercial loans, consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $191.8 million or 10.2% of total assets at June 30, 2001 as compared with $142.8 million or 8.8% of total assets at December 31, 2000. As liquidity levels vary continuously based on customer activities, amounts of cash and cash equivalents can vary widely at any given point in time. Management believes the banks' liquidity position at June 30, 2001 is adequate to fund loan demand and meet depositor needs. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, a source of long-term liquidity is the banks' marketable investment securities. Liquidity needs have not historically necessitated the sale of investments in order to meet funding requirements. The banks also have not engaged in active trading of their investments and have no intention of doing so in the foreseeable future. At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the banks had approximately $36 million and $62 million, respectively, of investment securities classified as available for sale which can be utilized to meet various liquidity needs as they arise. During the first quarter of 2001, available-for-sale securities aggregating $500,000 were sold. Some of the Corporation's banks have secured lines of credit with Federal Home Loan Bank. Borrowings thereunder approximated $47 million and additional borrowing capacity approximated $16.4 million at June 30, 2001. At June 30, 2001, Capitol had unused lines of credit from an unrelated financial institution aggregating $10.6 million. Capitol's Board of Directors recently approved a third quarter cash dividend of $.10 per share (payable September 4, 2001 to shareholders of record as of August 1, 2001), following cash dividends of $.10 per share paid June 1 and March 1, 2001 ($.09 per share in the corresponding periods of 2000). Page 15 of 20 In March 2001, Capitol completed a private placement of 130,000 shares of common stock and 32,500 warrants (each such warrant permitting the holder to purchase one share of common stock prior to the expiration date of the warrant, March 2003). Proceeds from the offering approximated $1.5 million and will be used for debt retirement and additional investment in bank development activities. Capitol and its banks are subject to complex regulatory capital requirements, which require maintaining certain minimum capital ratios. These ratio measurements, in addition to certain other requirements, are used by regulatory agencies to determine the level of regulatory intervention and enforcement applied to financial institutions. Capitol and each of its banks are in compliance with the regulatory requirements and management expects to maintain such compliance. Stockholders' equity, as a percentage of total assets, approximated 4.0% at June 30, 2001, a slight decrease from the beginning of the year ratio of 4.3%. Total capital funds (Capitol's stockholders' equity, plus minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, plus guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in the Corporation's subordinated debentures) aggregated $166.3 million or 8.84% of total assets at June 30, 2001. The following table summarizes the amounts (in thousands) and related ratios of individually significant subsidiaries (total assets of $130 million or more at the beginning of 2001) and consolidated regulatory capital position at June 30, 2001: Sun Ann Arbor Capitol Community Commerce National Bancorp Bank Bank Limited Consolidated ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Total capital to total assets: Minimum required amount >= $ 10,099 >= $ 6,350 >= $ 27,087 >= $ 75,279 Actual amount $ 18,618 $ 11,531 $ 56,150 $ 75,765 Ratio 7.37% 7.26% 8.29% 4.03% Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets: Minimum required amount(1) >= $ 8,380 >= $ 5,204 >= $ 23,058 >= $ 63,734 Actual amount $ 18,605 $ 11,524 $ 81,858 $159,100 Ratio 8.88% 8.86% 14.20% 9.99% Combined Tier I and Tier II capital to risk-weighted assets: Minimum required amount(2) >= $ 16,759 >= $ 10,409 >= $ 46,115 >= $127,468 Amount required to meet "Well-Capitalized" category(3) >= $ 20,949 >= $ 13,011 >= $ 57,644 >= $159,336 Actual amount $ 21,227 $ 13,154 $ 89,064 $179,023 Ratio 10.13% 10.11% 15.45% 11.24% - ---------- (1) The minimum required ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets is 4%.

Page 16 of 20 Capitol's operating strategy continues to be focused on the ongoing growth and maturity of its existing banks, coupled with new bank expansion in selected markets as opportunities arise. Accordingly, Capitol may invest in or otherwise develop additional banks in future periods, subject to economic conditions and other factors, although the timing of such additional banking units, if any, is uncertain. Such future new banks and/or additions of other operating units could be either wholly-owned, majority-owned or otherwise controlled by Capitol. At June 30, 2001, plans were in process for formation of new banks in California and Nevada. In July 2001, Capitol participated in two private placements of pooled trust-preferred securities. One is a variable rate security totaling $15 million and the second is a fixed-rate security of $10 million. Both have similar terms (due in 2031) and, subject to certain provisions, may be repaid early. Net proceeds from these transactions approximated $25 million and will be used for debt repayment, bank development and other corporate purposes. These securities are expected to be treated as elements of capital for regulatory purposes. TRENDS AFFECTING OPERATIONS The most significant trends which can impact the financial condition and results of operations of financial institutions are changes in market rates of interest and changes in general economic conditions. Changes in interest rates, either up or down, have an impact on net interest income (plus or minus), depending on the direction and timing of such changes. At any point in time, there is an imbalance between interest rate-sensitive assets and interest rate-sensitive liabilities. This means that when interest rates change, the timing and magnitude of the effect of such interest rate changes can alter the relationship between asset yields and the cost of funds. In January 2001, the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Board decreased interbank interest rates on two separate dates, for a total decrease of 100 basis points. In March 2001, another 50 basis points decrease was initiated by the Federal Reserve, followed by decreases of 50 basis points in both April and May 2001 and 25 basis points in June 2001. Because variable rate loans reprice more rapidly than interest-bearing deposits, such market interest rate decreases compressed net interest margins at Capitol's banks in 2001. As the Open Market Committee continues to influence interest rates and other economic policy in 2001, including the potential of additional rate decreases, net interest margins may become more compressed (having an adverse impact on earnings) as the year progresses. Start-up banks generally incur operating losses during their early periods of operations. Recently-formed start-up banks are expected to detract from consolidated earnings performance and additional start-up banks formed in 2001 and beyond will similarly negatively impact short-term profitability. Capitol's Board of Directors has determined to reduce the rate of start-ups in the near term in contrast to the previous three years. General economic conditions also have a significant impact on both the results of operations and the financial condition of financial institutions. Page 17 of 20 Widespread media reports of concerns about the health of the domestic economy have continued in early 2001. While local economic conditions appear to indicate a weakening environment, loan losses in this 2001 period have decreased significantly in comparison to the level with the prior year's period. In 2001, however, nonperforming loans have increased and it is anticipated that levels of nonperforming loans and related loan losses may trend upward further as economic conditions, locally and nationally, evolve. IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, requires all derivatives to be recognized in financial statements and to be measured at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value are included in income, or in comprehensive income, depending on whether the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting and the type of hedging instrument involved. This new standard became effective January 1, 2001 and, because Capitol and its banks have not typically entered into derivative contracts either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes, it had no effect on Capitol's financial statements. In early July 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council each issued new guidance (some of which remains to be finalized) on accounting for loan loss reserves (also known as allowances for loan losses). While the new guidance does not change prior accounting rules in this area, it provides additional clarification and guidance on how such reserves and allowances may be documented by management. In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Statement No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under a prior standard of purchase accounting, eliminating the so-called pooling-method which was used to account for some business combinations. Statement No. 141 requires that the purchase method be used for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. This new standard is not expected to have a material effect on Capitol's consolidated financial statements. Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged against earnings, but instead to be reviewed for impairment. Amortization of goodwill ceases upon adoption of the Statement, which for most companies, will be January 1, 2002. This new standard requires that goodwill be reviewed periodically for impairment and, accordingly, impairment adjustments of goodwill be charged against earnings, when determined. Management has not completed its analysis of this new standard, however, its preliminary review has concluded that, upon implementation, future amortization of goodwill will be reduced or eliminated. A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to Capitol's financial statements.
