     In 1997, the Registrant formed Capitol Trust I, a Delaware statutory
business trust. Capitol Trust I's business and affairs are conducted by its
property trustee, a Delaware trustee, and three individual administrative
trustees who are employees and officers of the Registrant. Capitol Trust I
exists for the sole purpose of issuing and selling its preferred securities and
common securities, using the proceeds from the sale of those securities to
acquire subordinated debentures issued by the Registrant and certain related
services. During 2001, the Registrant formed Capitol Trust II and Capitol
Statutory Trust III, in conjunction with private placements of trust-preferred
securities, which are structured similar to Capitol Trust I. Additional
information regarding trust-preferred securities is incorporated by reference
from Page 40, Financial Information Section of Annual Report, under the caption
"Note I--Trust-Preferred Securities".

     The following tables (Tables A to G, inclusive), present certain
statistical information regarding Capitol's business.

DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (TABLE A)

Net interest income, the primary component of earnings, represents the
difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest
expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends upon the
volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the rates
earned or paid on them. This table shows the daily average balances for the
major asset and liability categories and the actual related interest income and
expense (in $1,000s) and average yield/cost for the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999.

CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME (TABLE B)
CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED

The table below summarizes the extent to which changes in interest rates and
changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities have affected Capitol's net interest income (in $1,000s). The change
in interest attributable to volume is calculated by multiplying the annual
change in volume by the prior year's rate. The change in interest attributable
to rate is calculated by multiplying the annual change in rate by the prior
year's average balance. Any variance attributable jointly to volume and rate
changes has been allocated to each category based on the percentage of each to
the total change in both categories.

The following summarizes, in general, Capitol's various loan classifications:

     Commercial - real estate
     Comprised of a broad mix of business use and multi-family housing
     properties, including office, retail, warehouse and light industrial uses.
     A typical loan size approximates $500,000 and, at December 31, 2001,
     approximately 31% of such properties were owner-occupied and approximately
     11% of the commercial real estate total consisted of a combination of
     multi-family and residential rental income properties.

     Commercial - other
     Includes a range of business credit products, current asset lines of credit
     and equipment term loans. These products bear higher inherent economic risk
     than other types of lending activities. A typical loan size approximates
     $250,000, and multiple account relationships serve to reduce such risks.

     Real Estate Mortgage
     Includes single family residential loans held for permanent portfolio, and
     home equity lines of credit. Risks are nominal, borne out by loss
     experience, housing economic data and loan-to-value percentages.

     Installment
     Includes a broad range of consumer credit products, secured by automobiles,
     boats, etc., with typical consumer credit risks.

All loans are subject to underwriting procedures commensurate with the loan
size, nature of collateral, industry trends, risks and experience factors.
Appropriate collateral is required for most loans, as is documented evidence of
debt repayment sources.

     Ann Arbor Commerce Bank, in 1998, and Portage Commerce Bank, in 1997,
relocated their main offices to substantially larger leased facilities
(approximately 18,000 and 10,000 square feet, respectively) in response to asset
growth and to better serve customers.

     Most of the other bank subsidiaries' facilities are generally small (i.e.,
less than 10,000 square feet), first floor offices with convenient access to
parking.

     Some of the banks have drive-up customer service. The banks are typically
located in or near high traffic centers of commerce in their respective
communities. Customer service is enhanced through utilization of ATMs to process
some customer-initiated transactions and some of the banks also make available a
courier service to pick up transactions at customers' locations.

     The principal offices of Capitol are located within the same building as
Capitol National Bank in Lansing, Michigan. Those headquarters include
administrative, operations, accounting, and executive staff. Data processing
centers are located in Lansing, Michigan and Tempe, Arizona.

     Sun Community Bancorp Limited's principal offices are within the same
building as Camelback Community Bank in Phoenix, Arizona.

     Certain of the office locations are leased from related parties.
Incorporated by reference from Pages 38-39, Financial Information Section of
Annual Report, under the caption "Note F--Premises and Equipment" and Page 11,
Proxy Statement, third paragraph thereunder under the caption "Certain

and adequate condition and adequately covered by insurance.

ITEM 3, LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

     As of December 31, 2001, there were no material pending legal proceedings
to which Capitol or its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of its property
was subject, except for proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of
business. In the opinion of management, pending legal proceedings will not have
a material effect on the consolidated financial position or results of
operations of Capitol.

ITEM 4, SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

     During the fourth quarter of 2001, no matters were submitted to a vote by
security holders.

     At December 31, 2001 a proposed share exchange transaction was pending. In
November 2001, the boards of directors of Capitol and Sun Community Bancorp
Limited entered into a proposed plan of share exchange. The proposed plan of
share exchange is subject to the approval of the shareholders of both Capitol
and Sun. The proposed share exchange, if consummated, would result in Capitol
issuing .734 shares of its previously unissued common stock for each common
share of Sun's common stock held by shareholders other than Capitol. Capitol
estimates that it would issue approximately 2.7 million shares of its common
stock and 850,000 stock options if the share exchange is completed as proposed.
Special shareholders' meetings for Capitol and Sun are scheduled to be held in
late March 2002. If approved by shareholders, the proposed share exchange is
anticipated to be completed effective March 31, 2002.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and prevailing practices within the financial
institution industry.

Capitol's management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining the

review and approval of transactions, a code of ethical conduct for employees,
internal auditing and an annual audit of Capitol's consolidated financial
statements performed by a qualified independent audit firm. Management believes
the internal control structure of Capitol to be adequate and that there are no
material weaknesses in internal control.

facts are forward-looking statements. Those forward-looking statements, within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, are subject
to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the

changes in interest rates, (iii) legislation or regulatory requirements
adversely impacting Capitol's banking business and/or expansion strategy, (iv)
adverse changes in business conditions or inflation, (v) general economic
conditions, either nationally or regionally, which are less favorable than

attributable to Capitol or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified
in their entirety by the foregoing factors. Investors and other interested
parties are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which
speak as of the date of such statements. Capitol undertakes no obligation to

events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Most of this section discusses items of importance regarding Capitol's financial
statements which appear elsewhere in this report. In order to obtain a full
understanding of this discussion, it is important to read it with those
financial statements. However, before discussing the financial statements and
related highlights, an introductory section includes some important background
information about the business of Capitol and its banks, Capitol's structure and
recent developments.

THE BUSINESS OF CAPITOL AND ITS BANKS
Capitol defines itself as a BANK DEVELOPMENT COMPANY. In the highly regulated
business of banking, it is viewed by governmental agencies as a bank holding
company. Capitol views bank DEVELOPMENT as a much more dynamic activity than the
seemingly passive regulatory label for bank HOLDING companies.

Bank development at Capitol is the business of mentoring, monitoring and
managing its investments in community banks. Bank development is also the
activity of adding new banks through start-up, or DE NOVO, formation or through
other affiliation efforts, such as exploring acquisitions of existing banks.

Capitol's banks have similar characteristics:

     *    Each bank has an on-site president and management team, as local
          decision makers.
     *    Each bank has a local board of directors which has actual authority
          over the bank.
     *    Each bank generally operates from only one office location.
     *    Each bank can fully meet customers' needs anywhere, anytime through
          bankers-on-call, courier services, Internet and telephone banking and
          other delivery methods.
     *    Each bank has access to an efficient back-room processing facility and
          leading-edge technology through shared financial and operating
          resources.

Capitol's banks seek the profitable customer relationships which are often
displaced through mergers, mass marketing and megabanks with an impersonal
approach to handling customers. Capitol's banks are focused on commercial
banking activities, emphasizing business customers, although they also offer a
complete array of financial products and services.

Each bank has a separate charter. A bank charter is similar to articles of
incorporation and enables each bank to exist as a distinct legal entity. Most of
these banks are state-chartered, which means they are organized under a
particular state's banking laws. All of the banks are FDIC-insured, and some are
members of the Federal Reserve System. Banks are highly regulated by state and
federal agencies. Because each bank has its own charter, each bank is examined
by both state and federal agencies as a separate and distinct legal entity for
safety, soundness and compliance with banking laws and regulations.

At December 31, 2001, Capitol consisted of 27 community banks, operating in 6
states.

                                       6

Capitol's bank development philosophy is one of "SHARED VISION", which
encompasses a commitment to community banking emphasizing local leadership and
investment, with the shared resources of efficient management. Capitol provides
these shared resources to its banks, including common data processing systems,
centralized item processing, loan review, internal audit, credit administration,
accounting and risk management.

CAPITOL'S STRUCTURE
The organizational structure of Capitol is complex. It is a mixture of banks
which Capitol owns directly and others which are owned indirectly through
subsidiary bank development companies. Additionally, Capitol's direct and
indirect ownership percentages of these entities differ.

To simplify the overall organizational structure, Capitol's bank development
activity may be viewed on these levels:

                            Capitol Bancorp Limited
                           (Bank Development Company)

Great Lakes regional bank development currently consists of activity in the
states of Michigan and Indiana. Capitol's 11 Michigan banks range in age from
three years to 19 years. Their size varies from $34 million in assets to $271
million. These banks are all located in dynamic markets across the lower
peninsula of Michigan in a band about 180 miles wide and 75 miles north and
south from that line, in Michigan's most populous and active economic region. Of
these banks, 9 were begun as start-up operations and 2 were added via
acquisitions:

owned by Capitol. If approved, it is anticipated to be consummated on or about
March 31, 2002 (see Note S of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

These banks are young. The most mature bank of the group, Bank of Tucson,
completed its 60th month of operation in June 2001. The youngest bank, Yuma
Community Bank, opened in December 2000. These banks range in size from about
$23 million in assets to $121 million at year-end 2001. Five of the banks are
located in or near greater Phoenix and two are located in Tucson.

Bank development activities in Nevada are carried out through Nevada Community
Bancorp Limited, which is 54% owned by Sun, and was formed in 1999:

Nevada's consolidated total assets approximated $193 million at year-end 2001
($106 million at year-end 2000). A fourth Las Vegas area bank was added in
February 2002.

Sunrise Capital Corporation was formed in 1999, is approximately 71% owned by
Sun and had consolidated total assets of $137 million at year-end 2001. It is
focused on developing banks in several states with a slightly different emphasis
on commercial lending than the other bank affiliates of Capitol and Sun. Its
three banks focus on offering loan products structured through and partially
guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), in addition to the
full array of typical bank products and services:

All of the banks and subsidiary bank development companies are combined, or
consolidated, for financial reporting purposes because Capitol has ownership
control of them either directly or indirectly. Current accounting rules require
consolidated reporting when one entity has majority voting control of another.
The reporting entity is the parent organization and entities which are
majority-owned by the parent are subsidiaries. In the circumstances of Capitol,
this parent and subsidiary relationship applies also to second and third tier
subsidiaries which have consolidated subsidiaries of their own.

The accounting rules in this area inhibit an understanding of the consolidated
financial statements. For example, consolidated balance sheets include all of
the combined entities' assets and liabilities. On the other hand, the
consolidated income statement includes all of the combined entities, but net
income only to the extent of the parent's ownership percentage.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Because of the number of banks and bank development companies added in recent
periods, comparing financial results for those and prior periods is difficult.
In 2001, one new bank was added. In 2000, a total of five new banks were added
to the consolidated group. In 1999, four new banks were added. In 1998, there
were six new banks added to the group.

In early 2001, Capitol's board of directors decided to reduce the annual number
of new bank start-ups in contrast to the preceding three years. This decision
was based, in part, on the objective of reducing the impact of start-up costs
and early-period operating losses which tend to negatively impact consolidated
earnings.

At December 31, 2001, applications were pending for permission to form two new
banks in early 2002, one in California and one in Nevada. Both of these new
banks (Napa Community Bank and Bank of Las Vegas) opened in early 2002.

As previously noted, a share exchange proposal was pending as of December 31,
2001 which, if approved by Capitol's and Sun's shareholders, would result in Sun
becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capitol. If the share exchange is
completed, then Capitol will fully include Sun's results of operations in its
operating results for periods after the effective date of the share exchange.
Capitol's rate of earnings per share will be diluted temporarily following the
proposed share exchange; however, this effect is not expected to be material in
2003.

BANKING TECHNOLOGY AT CAPITOL
The use of high technology banking systems is key to the delivery of accurate
and timely customer service. Capitol currently operates two data processing
sites, located in Lansing, Michigan and Tempe, Arizona. The Lansing site handles
item processing for the banks located in the Great Lakes region, while the Tempe
data center processes all activity for the banks located in the Southwest. Both
sites use mainframe computers and software which are nearly identical. While
physically separate, both sites function under common management.

2001 FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
Capitol completed 2001 with total assets exceeding $2 billion, an increase of
25% over year-end 2000's level of $1.6 billion.

Net income for 2001 exceeded $10.7 million, about 33% more than 2000's net
income of $8.0 million.

CHANGES IN CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL POSITION
Total assets have grown significantly to $2 billion near the end of 2001 from $1
billion at the end of 1998. This rapid asset growth is the result of adding new
banks and the ongoing growth and evolution of Capitol's more mature banks.

At year-end 2001, total assets of the five banks formed in 2000 approximated
$172 million ($67 million at December 31, 2000). Banks formed in 1999 reported
total assets of $217 million at the end of 2001, an increase of $79 million
during the year. Total assets of the six banks which became three years old in
2001 grew 27% during the past year to $339 million. The three banks formed in
1997 continued strong asset growth of 15% in 2001, achieving total assets of
$203 million. The most mature group of banks, those formed before 1997, reported
total assets of $1.1 billion at year-end 2001, an increase of about 13% for the
year.

Most of the consolidated assets consist of loans. Portfolio loans approximated
$1.7 billion at year-end 2001, or about 85% of total consolidated assets, an
increase from 83% at year-end 2000.

The banks emphasize commercial loans, consistent with their focus on serving
small to mid-sized business customers. The majority of commercial loans are
secured by real estate. Commercial loans comprise $1.5 billion or about 89% of
total portfolio loans at year-end 2001, a slight increase from the 87% ratio at
the end of 2000. Loan growth in 2001 was significant--$379 million, or a growth
rate of 28%--and closely paralleled the growth rate experienced in 2000.

The banks maintain an allowance for loan losses to absorb estimated losses in
the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. At December 31, 2001, the
allowance for loan losses approximated $23.2 million or 1.34% of portfolio
loans, compared to $17.4 million or 1.29% at the end of 2000. The allowance
ratio was increased in 2001 in response to higher levels of nonperforming loans
and potential problem loans. The following table summarizes portfolio loans, the
allowance for loan losses and its ratio, and nonperforming loans (in $1,000s):

Nonperforming loans, which consist of loans more than 90 days past due and loans
on nonaccrual status, approximated $17.2 million at year-end 2001, compared to
$6.8 million at the end of 2000, an increase of approximately $10.4 million.
Most of these loans at December 31, 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.

In addition to the identification of nonperforming loans involving borrowers
with payment performance difficulties (i.e., nonaccrual loans and loans past-due
90 days or more), management utilizes an internal loan review process to
identify other potential problem loans which may warrant additional monitoring
or other attention. This loan review process is a continuous activity which
periodically updates internal loan classifications. At inception, all loans are
individually assigned a classification which grade the credits on a risk basis,
based on the type and discounted value of collateral, financial strength of the
borrower and guarantors and other factors such as nature of the borrowers'
business climate, local economic conditions and other subjective factors. The
loan classification process is fluid and subjective.

Potential problem loans include loans which are generally performing as agreed,
however, because of loan review's and/or lending staff's risk assessment,
increased monitoring is deemed appropriate. In addition, some loans are
identified for monitoring because of specific performance issues or other risk
factors requiring closer management and development of specific remedial action
plans.

Loan review activities were augmented in September 2001 in response to continued
and worsening general conditions of the United States economy, in part due to
the terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania and the Nation's Capitol. With
deterioration of general economic conditions prior to September 11, 2001--the
events on that date and subsequently--management undertook an even more thorough
and critical review of all loans and related loan classifications.

At December 31, 2001, potential problem loans (including nonperforming loans)
approximated $75.4 million or about 4% of total consolidated portfolio loans.
Such totals doubled in 2001, in part, as a result of management's ongoing and
augmented loan review activities. It is important to note that these potential
problem loans do not necessarily have significant loss exposure (nor are they
necessarily deemed `impaired'), but rather are identified by management in this
manner to aid in loan administration and risk management. Management believes
these loans to be adequately considered in its evaluation of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses. Management believes, however, that current general
economic conditions may result in higher levels of future loan losses, in
comparison to previous years.

Although nonperforming and other potential problem loans have increased, loan
loss experience through December 31, 2001 has been less than industry statistics
and at low percentage based on average loans outstanding. Management's
assessment of these loans as of December 31, 2001 suggests future loss
experience will parallel past experience.

                                       13

How financial institutions establish their allowance for loan losses is an
important and critical accounting policy and process. 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. It is
analyzed quarterly by each bank. The adequacy of the allowance is an estimate
based on management's evaluation of the loan portfolio (including volume, amount
and composition, potential impairment of individual loans and concentration of
credit), past loss experience, current economic conditions, loan commitments
outstanding, regulatory requirements and other factors.

Standard-setting bodies, regulatory agencies and the SEC (Securities and
Exchange Commission) have, on an industry-wide basis, separately issued
proposals and other guidance in 2001 and 2000 on how the allowance for loan
losses should be estimated and documented. Estimation of requirements for the
allowance for loan losses is an inherently subjective process which involves
significant judgement by management of many variables potentially impacting
borrowers' ability to repay loans and the estimated values of underlying loan
collateral.

New banks, as a condition of charter approval, are required to maintain an
allowance ratio of not less than 1% for their first three years of operations.
Because they are new banks with new and unseasoned loans and no prior loss
history, 1% is often used as a starting point for the allowance, particularly in
the earliest years of operation. As some of the younger banks now have more
seasoned loan portfolios and the 1% regulatory requirement represents only an
absolute minimum, loan loss allowance ratios were increased in 2001 based on
management's estimates of loss potential inherent in the loan portfolios at the
balance sheet date.

In addition to the recorded allowance, some Michigan and Indiana bank
subsidiaries have loans which are enrolled in state-sponsored programs which
provide supplemental loss protection through earmarked deposits kept at the
participating banks by the applicable state agency. Loans in this program
totaled $35 million in 2001 and $34 million in 2000 and the amount of the loss
reserves available for those loans approximated $1.4 million in 2001 and $1.6
million in 2000.

The state agency administering the Michigan program has announced plans to
terminate the program in 2002. Upon termination of the program, loans previously
enrolled in the program and related reserves would continue until the underlying
loans are repaid, but no new loans would be enrolled in the program. While this
program has been important to Capitol's Michigan banks, termination of the
program is not expected to have a material adverse affect on those banks'
lending activities in the future. The termination of the program may adversely
affect the future availability of credit for those borrowers who otherwise would
have been eligible for enrollment in the program.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue growth has been significant. In 2001, total revenues approximated $163.4
million, an 18% increase over the 2000 revenue level of $138.4 million. The
primary revenue source is interest income from loans. Net interest income is the
difference between total interest income on loans and other earning assets and
interest expense on deposits and borrowings. The following graphs summarize
growth in total revenue (which includes noninterest income revenues like some
fees and service charges) and net interest income:

Most of the 2001 revenues, $90 million or about 55%, came from the most mature
banks--those formed prior to 1997. Banks formed in 1999, 1998 and 1997 reported
2001 revenues of $60 million or 37% of the consolidated total. The youngest
banks, those formed in 2001 and 2000, generated 2001 revenues totaling $13
million or about 8% of total consolidated revenues.

Noninterest income increased about 56% in 2001 and 30% in 2000. These increases
resulted from higher levels of service-charge revenue associated with growth in
the number of accounts and banks. Revenues from origination of non-portfolio
residential mortgages increased significantly in both 2001 and 2000 due to
higher loan volume in periods of low interest rates.

Growth in the categories of interest income and interest expense as well as
noninterest income and noninterest expense, is the result of the addition of new
banks during the periods presented and the ongoing growth of Capitol's more
mature banks. Growth in interest expense is mainly due to higher levels of
interest-bearing funds which fund growth at each of the banks. Net interest
margin, however, decreased in 2001, mainly due to interest rate decreases
impacting interest income at a rate faster than decreases in interest rates paid
on deposits.

The largest component of noninterest expense is salaries and employee benefits,
which has increased significantly due to the larger number of banks and bank
development subsidiaries.

Provisions for loan losses also increased significantly during recent years,
commensurate with the growth in both the number of banks and loans and trends in
asset quality and loan charge-offs.

During 1999, a new accounting standard required the write-off of previously
capitalized start-up costs, which is discussed in a later section of this
narrative. It was reflected as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle in the consolidated statement of income, and amounted to $.03 per
share.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY

Asset liquidity for financial institutions typically consists of cash and cash
equivalents, investment securities available for sale and loans held for resale.
These categories totaled $262 million at year-end 2001, or about 13% of total
assets. This compares to $226 million or 14% of total assets at year-end 2000.
Liquidity is important for financial institutions because of their need to meet
loan funding commitments, depositor withdrawal requests and various other
commitments discussed in the accompanying notes to consolidated financial
statements.

Liquidity varies significantly daily, based on customer activity. The change in
the liquidity ratio, from 14% in 2000 to 13% in 2001, is the result of more
assets being deployed into loans, consistent with the strategy of maximizing
interest income. Rates of interest income on liquid assets are typically less
than rates the banks achieve from commercial loans.

Most of the investment securities portfolio is classified as available for sale,
although the banks generally have not sold investments to meet liquidity needs.
Also, to the extent warranted, the banks may sell loans from time to time.

The primary source of funds for the banks is deposits. The banks emphasize
interest-bearing time deposits as part of their funding strategy. The banks also
seek noninterest-bearing deposits, or checking accounts, which reduce the banks'
cost of funds. Noninterest-bearing deposits were about 16% of total deposits at
year-end 2001 (about 15% at year-end 2000) and increased $64 million, or 30%,
during the year.

In recent periods, many banks have experienced some competitive challenges in
obtaining additional deposits to fuel growth. Capitol's banks have had similar
experiences in their individual markets. As depositors have wider access to the
Internet and other real-time interest rate monitoring resources, deposit pricing
has become more competitive. Deposit growth is achievable, but at a higher
price, shrinking net interest margins. The banks do not generally rely on
brokered deposits as a key funding source (approximately $143 million at
year-end 2001).

To supplement their funding sources, some of the banks have lines of credit from
the Federal Home Loan Bank system. At year-end 2001, a total of $63 million ($40
million at year-end 2000) was borrowed under those facilities and additional
borrowing availability approximated $15 million. Some of the banks also have
smaller lines of credit with their correspondent banks. Borrowings under these
facilities are generally at short-term market rates of interest and, although
the repayment dates can be extended, are generally outstanding for brief periods
of time.

                                       17

Capitol has credit facilities aggregating $35 million from an unaffiliated bank.
At year-end 2001, a total of $14.1 million ($18.2 million at year-end 2000) was
borrowed under this facility. Borrowings under this credit facility were reduced
in 2001 and 2000 through use of available corporate funds within the
consolidated group.

A significant source of capital has been investments provided by minority
shareholders in the subsidiaries which are consolidated for financial reporting
purposes. Total minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries amounted to
$70.7 million at year-end 2001, an increase of $8.1 million from the $62.6
million level at year-end 2000. The increases in minority interests in 2001
resulted mainly from Sun's consolidating the ownership of three of its
majority-owned banks, by issuing new shares of Sun's common stock at a premium
over the underlying book value of the minority interests' shares of the bank.

Three of the majority-owned banks became 100% owned in 2000. When these banks
neared their 36th month of operation, Capitol offered the minority owners an
opportunity to exchange their bank shares for shares of Capitol. The exchange
ratio was based on 150% of the banks' adjusted book value. Brighton Commerce
Bank's share exchange transaction was completed effective January 31, 2000.
Share exchange transactions for Kent Commerce Bank and Muskegon Commerce Bank
were completed effective December 31, 2000. As a result of the share exchanges,
the minority owners of those three banks became shareholders of Capitol. About
626,000 shares of Capitol's common stock were issued in these transactions.

In 2001, three of Sun's majority-owned banks (Camelback Community Bank, Southern
Arizona Community Bank and Mesa Bank) became wholly-owned by Sun, resulting from
share exchange transactions with those banks' minority shareholders. Those share
exchange transactions were structured similarly to Capitol's prior share
exchange transactions.

While it is likely that similar share exchange transactions, as a harvest
strategy to gain full ownership of some bank subsidiaries, may occur in the
future, any such transactions depend upon whether Capitol (or one of its
subsidiary bank holding companies) offers such an exchange and whether minority
shareholders vote in favor of it on a transaction-by-transaction basis.

Total stockholders' equity approximated $80.2 million at year-end 2001, an
increase of $9.8 million for the year. The 2001 increase in stockholders' equity
includes earnings (less dividends paid) and proceeds from the issuance of common
stock. The book value per share of common stock was $10.24 at year-end 2001,
compared with $9.18 at year-end 2000. Cash dividends of $0.40 were paid in 2001,
compared to $.36 in 2000 and 1999. Future payment of dividends is subject to
approval by Capitol's board of directors, future operating performance and
management's assessment of the consolidated organization's capital adequacy.

Capitol's capital structure consists of these primary elements:
     *    Trust-preferred securities,
     *    Minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, and
     *    Stockholders' equity.

In March 2001, Capitol completed a private placement of 130,000 shares of common
stock at $11.50 per share and 32,500 warrants (each such warrant permitting the
holder to purchase one share of common stock at $11.50 per share prior to the
expiration date of the warrant, March 2003). Proceeds from the offering
approximated $1.5 million and were used for debt retirement and additional
investment in bank development activities.

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 $24 million and were used for debt
repayment, bank development and other corporate purposes. These securities,
along with Capitol Trust I (a $25 million public offering of trust-preferred
securities in 1997), are treated as elements of capital for regulatory purposes.

Total capitalization at year-end 2001 amounted to $199.5 million or 9.8% of
total assets. This compares to $157.3 million or 9.7% at year-end 2000.

Capitol and each of its banks and bank development subsidiaries are subject to a
complex series of regulatory rules and requirements which require specific
levels of capital adequacy at both the bank level and on a consolidated basis.
Under those rules and regulations, banks are categorized as WELL CAPITALIZED,
ADEQUATELY CAPITALIZED or INADEQUATELY CAPITALIZED using several ratio
measurements, including a risk-weighting approach to assets and financial
commitments. Banks falling into the INADEQUATELY CAPITALIZED category are
subject to the prompt corrective action provisions of the FDIC Improvement Act,
which can result in significant regulatory agency intervention and other adverse
action. Although it is permissible to maintain capital adequacy at the
ADEQUATELY CAPITALIZED level, Capitol operates with the objective of its banks
meeting the WELL CAPITALIZED standard. The well capitalized banks benefit from
lower FDIC deposit insurance costs and less restrictive limitations on some
banking activities.

New banks, as a condition of regulatory charter approval, are required to
maintain higher ratios of capital adequacy. Generally, they are required to keep
a ratio of capital-to-total-assets of not less than 8% during their first three
years of operation.

In the opinion of management, all of the affiliated banks met the criteria to be
classified as WELL CAPITALIZED at year-end 2001.

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.
This timing difference between interest rate-sensitive assets and interest
rate-sensitive liabilities is characterized as a "gap" which is quantified by
the distribution of rate-sensitive amounts within various time periods in which
they reprice or mature. The following table summarizes the consolidated
financial position in relation to "gap" at December 31, 2001 (in $1,000s):

The "gap" changes daily based upon changes in the underlying assets and
liabilities at the banks. Analyzing exposure to interest rate risk is prone to
imprecision because the "gap" is constantly changing, the "gap" differs at each
of the banks, and it is difficult to predict the timing, amount and direction of
future changes in market interest rates and the potential corresponding effect
on customer behavior.

The banks endeavor to manage and monitor interest rate risk in concert with
market conditions and risk parameters. Management strives to maintain a
reasonably balanced position of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities.
The banks have not engaged in speculative positions, for example, through the
use of derivatives, in anticipation of interest rate movements. In periods of
relatively lower interest rates, the banks emphasize variable rate loans and
time deposits to the extent possible in a competitive environment; however,
competitive influences often result in making fixed rate loans, although the
banks seek to limit the duration of such loans. Similarly, low interest rates
generally make competition more intense for deposits, since loan demand will
typically increase during periods of lower rates and, accordingly, result in
higher interest costs on deposits as competitors bid-up rates, adversely
impacting interest margins. Future interest rates and the impact on earnings are
difficult to predict. In addition to interest rate risk relating to
interest-bearing assets and liabilities, changes in interest rates also can
impact future transaction volume of loans and deposits at the banks. For
activities which are influenced by levels of interest rates for transaction
volume (for example, origination of residential mortgage loans), pricing margins
and demand can become impacted significantly by changes in interest rates.

As a means of monitoring and managing exposure to interest rate risk, management
uses a computerized simulation model which is intended to estimate pro forma
effects of changes in interest rates. Using the simulation model, the following
table illustrates, on a consolidated basis, changes which would occur in annual
levels of interest income, interest expense and net interest income (in $1,000s)
assuming both one hundred and two hundred basis point ("bp") parallel increases
and decreases in interest rates:

The pro forma analysis above is intended to quantify theoretical changes in
interest income based on stated assumptions. The pro forma analysis excludes the
effect of numerous other variables such as borrowers' ability to repay loans,
the ability of banks to obtain deposits in a radically changed interest-rate
environment and how management would revise its asset and liability management
priorities in concert with rate changes.

During 2001, the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Board decreased
interbank interest rates 11 times, which was an unprecedented action to reduce
rates 475 basis points within a year. While the pro forma analysis above is
intended to estimate the impact of an immediate 100 and 200 basis point change
in rates, actual results will be different. Those results will differ

                                       21

(and may be materially different) because a sudden rate change in market rates
does not result in an instantaneous parallel shift in rates on loans and
deposits at banks. Further, any financial model intended to estimate the impact
of interest rate changes will not necessarily incorporate other variables,
including management's efforts to manage its asset and liability interest rate
sensitivity, nor customer behavior.

General economic conditions also have a significant impact on both the results
of operations and the financial condition of financial institutions. Local
economic conditions, and to some extent national economic conditions, have a
significant impact on levels of loan demand as well as the ability of borrowers
to repay loans and the availability of funds for customers to make deposits. In
2000 and 1999, economic conditions continued to be favorable.

2001 marked the end of the longest peacetime economic expansion in U.S. history.
The terrorist acts of September 11, 2001, our Nation's subsequent war on
terrorism, the diagnosis of economic recession in the U.S., worldwide economic
and political instability, recent major business bankruptcies and their related
high-profile questionable accounting and financial reporting practices, raise
significant concerns over the near-term and longer-horizons for economic and
political uncertainty. The number of variables which have the potential for
having a dramatic impact, individually or collectively, is an environment not
heretofore witnessed by the United States or the world. Capitol's management
remains cautiously optimistic about the future of our economy, the business of
its banks and their customers and the health and strength of its service
providers. However, management is resolute in its view that, even though there
are some positive indications of an improving economy, the environment will NOT
be BUSINESS AS USUAL anytime soon.

While the events of September 11th were clearly horrific to the thousands of
people with a direct loss of family members and business colleagues, we consider
our company to be minimally impacted at this time. However, we note the loss of
business colleagues we worked with in 2001 and are deeply saddened by their
families' losses. Our loss of those colleagues, some of whom were very key to
the banking industry, creates a void which cannot be easily filled. Nonetheless,
Capitol's management looks forward to the rebuilding of those businesses and
working with the professionals subsequently taking on the key commerce
activities which is the hallmark of this Nation's freedoms and free enterprise
system.

Continuing consolidation of the banking industry on a national basis, and in the
markets of Capitol's banks, has presented opportunities for growth. As a result
of consolidation of the banking industry, coupled with the closure of branch
locations by larger institutions and the conversion of customer relationships
into perceived `commodities' by the larger banks, many customer relationships
have been displaced, generating opportunities for development by Capitol's
banks. For many retail customers, banking services have become a commodity in an
environment that is dominated by larger mega-bank or mass-merchandising
institutions. For the professional, entrepreneur and other customers seeking a
more service-oriented, customized banking relationship, Capitol's banks fill
that need through their focus on single-location banks with full, local
decision-making authority. As the banks focus on service delivery and keeping
their size at a manageable level, only a modest market share of deposits and
loan activity is necessary to achieve profitability and investor-oriented
earnings performance.

                                       22

Start-up banks generally incur operating losses during their early periods of
operations. Recently-formed start-up banks will detract from consolidated
earnings performance and additional start-up banks formed in 2002 and beyond
will similarly negatively impact short-term profitability. On a consolidated
basis, such operating losses reduce net income by the pro rata share of
Capitol's ownership percentage in those banks. When those banks become
profitable, their operating results will contribute to consolidated earnings to
the extent of Capitol's ownership percentage.

Commercial banks continue to be subject to significant regulatory requirements
which impact current and future operations. In addition to the extent of
regulatory interaction with financial institutions, extensive rules and
regulations governing lending activities, deposit gathering and capital adequacy
(to name a few), translate into a significant cost burden of financial
institution regulation. Such costs include the significant amount of management
time and expense which is incurred in maintaining compliance and developing
systems for compliance with those rules and regulations as well as the cost of
examinations, audits and other compliance activities. The future of financial
institution regulation, and its costs, is uncertain and difficult to predict.

Premiums for FDIC insurance have historically been a significant cost of doing
business as financial institutions, but in the most recent years, deposit
insurance premiums have been maintained at a stable and modest level. Future
deposit insurance premium levels are difficult to predict inasmuch as deposit
insurance premiums will be determined based on general economic conditions, the
relative health of the banking and financial institution industry and other
unpredictable factors. It is reasonable to expect that deposit insurance
premiums may increase at some point in the future.

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 consolidated financial
statements.

In 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
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 the calculation, adequacy and approval of the allowances should 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.

                                       23

Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged
against earnings, but instead 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. Capitol's previous business
combinations (generally, acquisitions of minority interests) have been accounted
for using the purchase method. As of December 31, 2001, the net carrying amount
of goodwill (excess of cost over net assets of acquired subsidiaries)
approximated $8.5 million and other intangible assets were insignificant. Upon
implementation, this new standard is not expected to have a material effect on
Capitol's consolidated financial statements, other than the elimination of
goodwill amortization ($979,000 in 2001) in future periods.

The FASB has also recently issued Statement No. 143, ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET
RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS, and No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL
OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS. Management has not completed its review of these new
standards; however, implementation of the new guidance is not expected to have a
material effect on Capitol's consolidated financial statements.

Statement of Position 98-5, REPORTING ON THE COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES,
requires start-up costs and organizational costs to be charged to expense when
incurred. The initial application of the statement required a cumulative effect
adjustment for those companies that had previously capitalized start-up and
organizational costs and became effective in 1999. Implementation of this
standard has been reflected as a cumulative effect of an accounting change as of
January 1, 1999, resulting in a one-time charge of $.03 per share in the
consolidated statement of income.

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 in future periods.

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Capitol Bancorp Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Capitol Bancorp
Ltd. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Capitol Bancorp Ltd.
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

Consolidated subsidiaries of Sun are majority-owned by Sun (ranging from 51% to
100%). Sun is the majority owner of Nevada Community Bancorp and Sunrise Capital
Corporation which each have majority-owned bank subsidiaries. Sun became a
public company in 1999 through an initial public offering of common stock
approximating $25 million, of which Capitol invested $13 million. At December
31, 2001, a proposed share exchange was pending whereby, if approved by
shareholders, Capitol would acquire the shares of Sun it does not currently own
(see Note S).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE A--NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF
          CONSOLIDATION--CONTINUED

Capitol and its subsidiaries are engaged in a single business activity--banking.
The bank affiliates provide a full range of banking services to individuals,
businesses and other customers located in their respective communities. Each of
the banks generally operate from a single location and focus their activities on
meeting the various credit and other banking needs of entrepreneurs,
professionals and other high net worth individuals. A variety of deposit
products are offered, including checking, savings, money market, individual
retirement accounts and certificates of deposit. In addition, trust and
investment services are offered through Paragon Bank & Trust. The principal
markets for the banks' financial services are the communities in which they are
located and the areas immediately surrounding those communities. In addition to
commercial banking units, mortgage banking activities are offered through Amera
Mortgage Corporation, a 49% owned affiliate.

Each bank is viewed by management as being a separately identifiable business or
segment from the perspective of monitoring performance and allocation of
financial resources. Although the banks operate independently and are managed
and monitored separately, each bank is substantially similar in terms of
business focus, type of customers, products and services. Further, each of the
banks and the Corporation are subject to substantially similar laws and
regulations unique to the banking industry. Accordingly, the Corporation's
consolidated financial statements reflect the presentation of segment
information on an aggregated basis.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation
and its majority-owned subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts
and transactions, and after giving effect to applicable minority interests.
Banks formed during 1999, 2000 and 2001 are included in the consolidated
financial statements for periods after joining the consolidated group. Certain
2000 and 1999 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2001
presentation.

NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ESTIMATES: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand,
amounts due from banks (interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing) and federal
funds sold. Generally, federal funds transactions are entered into for a one-day
period.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONTINUED

LOANS HELD FOR RESALE: Loans held for resale represent residential real estate
mortgage loans held for sale into the secondary market. Loans held for resale
are stated at the aggregate lower of cost or market. Fees from the origination
of loans held for resale are recognized in the period the loans are originated.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES: Investment securities available for sale (generally most
debt investment securities of Capitol's banks) are carried at market value with
unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity, net of tax effect (accumulated other comprehensive income). All other
investment securities are classified as held for long-term investment and are
carried at amortized cost which approximates market value (see Note C).
Investments are classified at the date of purchase based on management's
analysis of liquidity and other factors. The adjusted cost of the specific
securities sold is used to compute realized gains or losses. Premiums and
discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the
period to maturity.

LOANS, CREDIT RISK AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES: Portfolio loans are carried at
their principal balance based on management's intent and ability to hold such
loans for the foreseeable future until maturity or repayment.

Credit risk arises from making loans and loan commitments in the ordinary course
of business. Substantially all portfolio loans are made to borrowers in the
banks' geographic areas. Consistent with the banks' emphasis on business
lending, there are concentrations of credit in loans secured by commercial real
estate, equipment and other business assets. The maximum potential credit risk
to Capitol, without regard to underlying collateral and guarantees, is the total
of loans and loan commitments outstanding. Management reduces Capitol's exposure
to losses from credit risk by requiring collateral and/or guarantees for loans
granted and by monitoring concentrations of credit, in addition to recording
provisions for loan losses and maintaining an allowance for loan losses.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb estimated losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance
sheet date. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is an
estimate based on evaluation of the portfolio (including potential impairment of
individual loans and concentrations of credit), past loss experience, current
economic conditions, volume, amount and composition of the loan portfolio, loan
commitments outstanding and other factors. The allowance is increased by
provisions charged to operations and reduced by net charge-offs.

INTEREST AND FEES ON LOANS: Interest income on loans is recognized based upon
the principal balance of loans outstanding. Fees from origination of portfolio
loans generally approximate the direct costs of successful loan originations.

                                       32

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONTINUED

The accrual of interest is generally discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days
past due as to interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest
previously accrued (but unpaid) is reversed. Management may elect to continue
the accrual of interest when the estimated net realizable value of collateral is
sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest and the loan is
in process of collection.

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT: Premises and equipment are stated on the basis of cost.
Depreciation, which relates primarily to equipment and furniture with estimated
useful lives of approximately five years, is computed principally by the
straight-line method. Buildings are generally depreciated on a straight-line
basis with estimated useful lives of approximately 40 years. Leasehold
improvements are generally depreciated over the respective lease term.

EXCESS OF COST OVER NET ASSETS OF ACQUIRED SUBSIDIARIES: Goodwill is amortized
on a straight-line basis over various periods not to exceed 15 years. Management
periodically reviews long-lived assets, including associated goodwill, for
potential impairment based upon projected undiscounted net cash flows, when
applicable, and the related amortization periods. Amortization of goodwill will
cease January 1, 2002 (see "New Accounting Standards" below).

OTHER REAL ESTATE: Other real estate (included as a component of other assets,
and at December 31, 2001 and 2000 approximated $3,044,000 and $3,094,000,
respectively) comprises properties acquired through a foreclosure proceeding or
acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. These properties held for sale are
carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value (net of estimated selling
cost) at the date acquired and are periodically reviewed for subsequent
impairment.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION: No stock-based compensation expense is recorded upon
granting of stock options because such stock options are accounted for under the
provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion 25 (and related
interpretations) and are granted at an exercise price equal to the market price
of common stock at grant date. Pro forma disclosure of alternative accounting
recognition is made in Note J.

TRUST ASSETS AND RELATED INCOME: Customer property, other than funds on deposit,
held in a fiduciary or agency capacity by Capitol's banks is not included in the
consolidated balance sheet because it is not an asset of the banks or Capitol.
Trust fee income is recorded on the accrual method.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: Capitol and subsidiaries owned 80% or more by Capitol file
a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred income taxes are recognized
for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted tax rates
applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The
effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax laws or rates is recognized
in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME: Comprehensive income is the sum of net income and certain
other items which are charged or credited to stockholders' equity. For the
periods presented, Capitol's only element of comprehensive income other than net
income was the net change in the market value adjustment for investment
securities available for sale. Accordingly, the elements and total of
comprehensive income are shown within the statement of changes in stockholders'
equity presented herein.

COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES: In 1998, the American Institute of CPAs issued
Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities,"
which requires start-up costs and organizational costs to be charged to expense
when incurred. In the circumstances of Capitol and its banks, this new
accounting standard applied to previously capitalized preopening and other
start-up costs of its bank subsidiaries which, net of amortization, approximated
$1,149,000 at December 31, 1998. Implementation of this standard was reflected
as a cumulative effect of an accounting change at January 1, 1999 (net of impact
of minority interests and income tax effect), approximating $197,000 ($.03 per
share).

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
consolidated financial statements.

In 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
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 the calculation, adequacy and approval of the allowances should 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE B--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONTINUED

Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged
against earnings, but instead 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. Capitol's previous business
combinations (generally, acquisitions of minority interests) have been accounted
for using the purchase method. As of December 31, 2001, the net carrying amount
of goodwill (excess of cost over net assets of acquired subsidiaries)
approximated $8.5 million and other intangible assets were insignificant. Upon
implementation, this new standard is not expected to have a material effect on
Capitol's consolidated financial statements, other than the elimination of
goodwill amortization ($979,000 in 2001) in future periods.

The FASB has also recently issued Statement No. 143, ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET
RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS, and No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL
OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS. Management has not completed its review of these new
standards; however, implementation of the new guidance is not expected to have a
material effect on Capitol's consolidated financial statements.

If nonperforming loans had performed in accordance with their contractual terms
during the year, additional interest income of $694,000, $315,000 and $635,000
would have been recorded in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Interest income
recognized on loans in nonaccrual status in 2001, 2000 and 1999 operations
approximated $513,000, $205,000 and $33,000, respectively. At December 31, 2001,
there were no material amounts of loans which were restructured or otherwise
renegotiated as a concession to troubled borrowers.

NOTE D--LOANS--CONTINUED

Certain commercial loans in Michigan and Indiana are enrolled in state-sponsored
loan programs. Under those programs, the governmental unit shares loss exposure
on such loans by funding reserves, which are placed as deposits at the banks.
Loans participating in these programs and related reserves approximated
$35,414,000 and $1,355,000, respectively, at December 31, 2001 ($33,513,000 and
$1,609,000, respectively, at December 31, 2000). Such reserve amounts are
separate and excluded from the allowance for loan losses. The Michigan agency
has announced its plans to terminate the loan program in 2002. When the Michigan
program is terminated, loans previously enrolled in the program and related
reserves will continue until those loans are repaid.

NOTE E--RELATED PARTIES TRANSACTIONS

In the ordinary course of business, Capitol's banking subsidiaries make loans to
officers and directors of Capitol and its subsidiaries including their immediate
families and companies in which they are principal owners. At December 31, 2001
and 2000, total loans to these persons were $80.9 million and $66.1 million,
respectively. During 2001, $66.8 million of new loans were made to these persons
and repayments totaled $52 million. Such loans are made at the banking
subsidiaries' normal credit terms.

Officers and directors of Capitol (and their associates, family and/or
affiliates) are also depositors of the banking subsidiaries. Such deposits are
similarly made at the banks' normal terms as to interest rate, term and deposit
insurance.

Borrowings from Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) represent advances secured by
certain portfolio residential real estate mortgage loans and other eligible
collateral. Such advances become due at varying dates and bear interest at
market short-term rates (approximately 4.58% at December 31, 2001). At December
31, 2001, unused lines of credit under these facilities approximated $15.1
million.

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE H--DEBT OBLIGATIONS--CONTINUED

Notes payable to unaffiliated bank represents borrowings under a fixed rate
(8.97%) term loan and a line of credit. Up to $20 million can be borrowed
pursuant to a one-year revolving credit agreement which bears interest at a
variable rate (4.75% at December 31, 2001), payable monthly. No amounts were
drawn on the line of credit at December 31, 2001. The credit facility is
reviewed annually for continuance and requires Capitol, among other things, to
maintain certain minimum levels of capital, rates of return on assets and other
ratios or requirements and is secured by the common stock of certain bank
subsidiaries. For the periods presented, interest paid on all debt obligations
approximate amounts charged to expense.

At December 31, 2001, scheduled debt maturities were as follows (in $1,000s):

     2002                                             $35,087

Securities of Capitol Trust I were issued in a 1997 public offering. Capitol
Trust II and Capitol Statutory Trust III were formed in 2001 in conjunction with
private placements of pooled trust-preferred securities. Each of these
securities have similar terms and, subject to certain provisions, may be called
by the issuer five years after issuance. The liquidation amount of these
securities is guaranteed by Capitol.

Interest paid to the Trusts by Capitol (which is recorded as interest expense in
its consolidated financial statements) is distributed by the Trusts to the
holders of the trust-preferred securities. Under certain conditions, Capitol may
defer payment of interest on the subordinated debentures for periods of up to
five years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE I--TRUST-PREFERRED SECURITIES--CONTINUED

Because these Trusts are subsidiaries (due to Capitol's ownership of the common
interests of the Trusts), they are consolidated for financial reporting
purposes. The amount of outstanding trust-preferred securities (net of issuance
costs which are being amortized over the life of the securities) is classified
between liabilities and equity in Capitol's consolidated balance sheet. Under
current regulatory guidelines, such trust-preferred securities are included as
capital for purposes of meeting certain ratio requirements.

NOTE J--COMMON STOCK, WARRANTS AND STOCK OPTIONS

At December 31, 2001, approximately 78,000 warrants for the purchase of common
stock were outstanding. Each warrant permits the holder to purchase a share of
Capitol's common stock at exercise prices ranging from $11.00 to $11.50 and
expire in 2003.

Stock options have been granted to certain officers and directors which provide
for the purchase of shares of common stock. Generally, stock options are granted
at an exercise price equal to the fair value of common stock on the grant date.
Of the stock options granted in 2000, 563,435 vest over a three-year period; the
remainder are fully vested and currently exercisable. All such stock options
expire seven years after the date granted.

Under the terms of an employment agreement with a certain director and executive
officer of Capitol, options granted thereunder shall be increased when the
Corporation issues additional shares so that such options granted equal 15% of
outstanding shares prior to exercise. In 1999, Capitol negotiated a reduction of
the executive officer's benefit from 15% to 10%. In exchange for the reduced
benefit to the executive officer, Capitol agreed to a one-time exercise of
previously granted stock options with an aggregate exercise price of $1.6
million funded by a note receivable of $1.9 million from the executive officer.
The note bears interest at a fixed rate over its ten-year term. As part of the
terms of this agreement, the executive officer's compensation will be increased
in an amount equal to the interest due on the note receivable. Under certain
circumstances, such as death of the executive officer, the note will be
forgiven. The death benefit is covered by company-owned life insurance.

As of December 31, 2001, stock options outstanding had a weighted average
remaining contractual life of 4.4 years. As of that date, 1,083,787 stock

price of $11.13 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 4.6 years;
119,336 stock options with an exercise price of more than $15.00 had a weighted
average exercise price of $24.53 and a weighted average remaining contractual

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", establishes a fair value method of accounting for stock options
whereby compensation expense is recognized based on the computed fair value of
the options on the grant date. However, as permitted by Statement No. 123,
Capitol accounts for its stock options under APB 25 and, therefore, does not
recognize compensation expense. By electing this alternative, certain pro forma
disclosures of the expense recognition provisions of Statement No. 123 are
required, which are as follows:

NOTE K--EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS

Capitol has a contributory employee retirement savings 401(k) plan which covers
substantially all full-time employees of Capitol and certain subsidiaries over
age 21. The Plan provides for employer contributions in amounts determined
annually by Capitol's board of directors. Eligible employees make voluntary
contributions to the Plan. Contributions to the Plan, which are an employer
match (50%, subject to certain limitations) for employee contributions, charged
to expense for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $691,000,
$475,000 and $310,000, respectively.

Capitol also has a defined contribution employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)
which covers substantially all employees of Capitol and certain subsidiaries.
Certain common stock purchases by the ESOP were financed by long-term debt. ESOP
contributions charged to expense in 2001, 2000 and 1999 approximated $525,000,
$180,000 and $217,000 (including ESOP note payable interest of $37,000, $49,000
and $62,000), respectively. Shares of common stock held by the ESOP which have
not yet been allocated to participants' accounts are shown as a reduction of
stockholders' equity. As of December 31, 2001, the ESOP held approximately
200,000 shares of Capitol's common stock which have been allocated to
participants' accounts and 26,000 shares of common stock with an approximate
fair value of $350,000 which have not yet been allocated to participants'
accounts.

NOTE O--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, loan commitments are made to accommodate the
financial needs of bank customers. Loan commitments include stand-by letters of
credit, lines of credit, and other commitments for commercial, installment and
mortgage loans. Stand-by letters of credit, when issued, commit the bank to make
payments on behalf of customers if certain specified future events occur and are
used infrequently by the banks ($19.2 million and $12.0 million outstanding at
December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively). Other loan commitments outstanding
consist of unused lines of credit and approved, but unfunded, specific loan
commitments ($398.9 million and $283.8 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively). These loan commitments (stand-by letters of credit and unfunded
loans) generally expire within one year and are reviewed periodically for
continuance or renewal.

All loan commitments have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in
routinely making loans to customers and are made subject to the banks' normal
credit policies. In making these loan commitments, collateral and/or personal
guarantees of the borrowers are generally obtained based on management's credit
assessment. Such loan commitments are also included in management's evaluation
of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

The banking subsidiaries are required to maintain average reserve balances in
the form of cash on hand and balances due from the Federal Reserve Bank and
correspondent banks. The amount of reserve balances required as of December 31,
2001 and 2000 were $2.4 million and $5.1 million, respectively.

Deposits at each of the banks are insured up to the maximum amount covered by
FDIC insurance. Some of the banks have municipal government deposits which are
guaranteed by Capitol ($41 million at December 31, 2001).

Capitol has guaranteed up to $7.5 million of secured borrowings by Amera
Mortgage Corporation, a 49%-owned affiliate.

NOTE P--DIVIDEND LIMITATIONS OF SUBSIDIARIES AND OTHER CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Current banking regulations restrict the ability to transfer funds from
subsidiaries to their parent in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances.
Subject to various regulatory capital requirements, bank subsidiaries' current
and retained earnings are available for distribution as dividends to Capitol
(and other bank shareholders, as applicable) without prior approval from
regulatory authorities. Substantially all of the remaining net assets of the
subsidiaries are restricted as to payments to Capitol.

Each bank and Capitol are subject to certain other capital requirements. Federal
financial institution regulatory agencies have established certain risk-based
capital guidelines for banks and bank holding companies. Those guidelines
require all banks and bank holding companies to maintain certain minimum ratios
and related amounts based on `Tier 1' and `Tier 2' capital and `risk-weighted
assets' as defined and periodically prescribed by the respective regulatory
agencies. Failure to meet these capital requirements can result in severe
regulatory enforcement action or other adverse consequences for a depository
institution and, accordingly, could have a material impact on Capitol's
consolidated financial statements.

Under the regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and related framework for
prompt corrective action, the specific capital requirements involve quantitative
measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications
are also subject to qualitative judgements by regulatory agencies with regard to
components, risk weighting and other factors.

As a condition of their charter approval, DE NOVO banks are generally required
to maintain a core capital (Tier 1) to assets ratio of not less than 8% and an
allowance for loan losses of not less than 1% for the first three years of
operations.

As of December 31, 2001, the most recent notifications received by the banks
from regulatory agencies have advised that the banks are classified as `well
capitalized' as defined by the applicable agencies. There are no conditions or
events since those notifications that management believes would change the
regulatory classification of the banks.

Management believes, as of December 31, 2001, that Capitol and the banks meet
all capital adequacy requirements to which the entities are subject.

NOTE R--ACQUISITION OF MINORITY INTERESTS

During 2000, three banks which were previously majority-owned by Capitol
(Brighton Commerce Bank, Kent Commerce Bank and Muskegon Commerce Bank) became
wholly-owned, resulting from share exchange transactions with the banks'
minority shareholders. Had these acquisitions of minority interests occurred at
the beginning of 2000, consolidated net income would have approximated $7.9
million and diluted earnings per share would have been $1.04.

                                       50

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CAPITOL BANCORP LIMITED


NOTE R--ACQUISITION OF MINORITY INTERESTS--CONTINUED

During 1999, Macomb Community Bank also became wholly-owned through a similar
share exchange transaction with its minority shareholders.

Each of these acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. Goodwill arising from these transactions is generally amortized
through December 31, 2001, on a straight-line basis over a period of 15 years
after the acquisition date.

Sun has also entered into similar share exchange transactions with minority
shareholders of its banks (three in 2001 and one in 2000), which have been
accounted for similar to Capitol's share exchange transactions. Sun's share
exchange transactions did not have a material effect on Capitol's consolidated
financial position or results of operations.

NOTE S--PROPOSED ACQUISITION REGARDING SUN COMMUNITY BANCORP

In November 2001, the boards of directors of Capitol and Sun Community Bancorp
Limited entered into a proposed plan of share exchange. The proposed plan of
share exchange is subject to the approval of the shareholders of both Capitol
and Sun. The proposed share exchange, if consummated, would result in Capitol
issuing .734 shares of its previously unissued common stock for each common
share of Sun's common stock held by shareholders other than Capitol. Capitol
estimates that it would issue approximately 2.7 million shares of its common
stock and 850,000 stock options if the share exchange is completed as proposed.

NOTE T--PENDING APPLICATIONS FOR NEW BANKS

At December 31, 2001, applications were pending for the formation of two new
banks, Bank of Las Vegas (to become a majority-owned subsidiary of Nevada
Community Bancorp Limited) and Napa Community Bank (to become a majority-owned
subsidiary of First California Northern Bancorp).

Both of these banks are expected to open in 2002.

In 1988, at the commencement of operations of Capitol Bancorp Limited, total
consolidated assets approximated $44 million. Today, current consolidated assets
exceed $2 billion. For our first year of operation, total consolidated income
was reported at $520,000. Income for 2001 exceeded $10 million. In 1988 we
operated a single bank. Today, our affiliated community bank network includes 29
separate institutions operating in six states. Since 1988, we have successfully
sought community-based capital on more than 50 separate occasions, encouraging
the localization of ownership of our affiliate community banks and rewarding
those investors who have chosen to participate with us in this effort.

In 1988 we believed that a profitable affiliate community banking network could
be built and that each banking institution could serve as a good citizen within
its community. Today this belief has been realized and serves as the cornerstone
of our company. Community banks serve as an important catalyst for dynamic
communities seeking growth and economic stability. Our boards of directors are
composed of successful individuals who serve as major contributors to their
community. They are an integral part of the fabric of the community in which
they reside. Under their direction, each of our community banks exercises local
authority over the important banking decisions which are necessary to ensure a
profitable banking operation. I invite you to review the comments of our bank
presidents enclosed in this report. We are not only pleased with the financial
success of our company, but are also very proud of the efforts toward community
responsibility initiated by each of our bank presidents and their boards of
directors.

The earnings, events and expectations of our company are set forth in the
remainder of this report. As you read, you will not glean a sense of
complacency. Both management and your Board of Directors are committed to
continued refinement of our earnings objectives and continued commitment to our
community bank model which supports both growth and stability.

EARNINGS

We continue to achieve record earnings. Over the past three years, consolidated
earnings have nearly doubled from $5.4 million in 1999 to $10.7 million in 2001.
During the same period, earnings per share have risen from $0.83 per share in
1999 to $1.35 per share in 2001. Net operating revenue, a key banking sector
metric, advanced from $52 million in 1999 to over $90 million in 2001.

Earnings growth continues to be the primary objective of the Corporation. During
the past 5 1/2 years we opened 23 start-up community banks. Each bank, at the
outset, is dilutive to the consolidated earnings stream of the Corporation.
However, these efforts are beginning to bear fruit. Both the geographic
diversity, particularly in higher-growth Southwest U.S. markets, and ongoing
maturation of our bank operations serve to encourage developing earnings
potential.

EVENTS

DE NOVO DEVELOPMENT

Unlike calendar years 1998, 1999 and 2000, when we opened six, four and five
banks respectively, the year 2001 produced a single DE NOVO bank within our
affiliated group, Sunrise Bank of San Diego. Opened only since January 2001,
this bank exceeded all of our expectations, reporting operating profits for the
fourth quarter of the year. Early 2002 has witnessed the launching of two new
affiliates within our family: Napa Community Bank, in northern California and
Bank of Las Vegas, in Nevada.

ACQUISITIONS

Following our traditional shared ownership practice when launching new
affiliates, 2001 witnessed three of our Southwest-based community banks
approaching their third anniversary date, which is the time that internal
ownership consolidation is considered by the shareholders of the bank. Having
maintained a majority ownership position in these banks, Sun Community Bancorp
Limited entered into separate share exchange agreements with Camelback Community
Bank, Southern Arizona Community Bank and Mesa Bank. Each transaction was
approved by the shareholders of the respective bank, and these three affiliates
are now wholly-owned subsidiaries of Sun. As is true with each of our "bank
development partnerships", the bank name, board composition, individual
strategic plan, and local decision-making has been preserved following the
exchange transaction.

                                   ----------

  "WE ARE NOT ONLY PLEASED WITH THE FINANCIAL SUCCESS OF OUR COMPANY, BUT ALSO

 VERY PROUD OF THE EFFORTS TOWARD COMMUNITY RESPONSIBILITY INITIATED BY EACH OF

              OUR BANK PRESIDENTS AND THEIR BOARDS OF DIRECTORS."

                                   ----------

PROPOSED SHARE EXCHANGE BETWEEN SUN AND CAPITOL

In November 2001, the Boards of Directors of Sun Community Bancorp Limited and
Capitol Bancorp Limited approved a plan of share exchange which will result in
the delivery of Sun shares to Capitol in exchange for Capitol shares, subject to
approval of both shareholder groups. Separate fairness opinions and shareholder
approval requirements were carefully followed by the Boards of both Sun and
Capitol.

Consolidation of the Capitol-Sun public ownership will serve to increase the
"float" of public stock at Capitol Bancorp, while decreasing the perceived
complexity of our operations from a public investor perspective. Because each of
our affiliates operate on a common platform, share technological systems,
cultivate organic growth and access identical strategic support systems at the
holding company level, this proposed transaction, along with our other internal
"acquisitions", is free from the typical cultural issues which can serve as
potential obstacles to successful integration.

ASSET GROWTH

During 2001, our affiliate operations added more than $400 million in organic
asset growth. Consolidated assets increased from $1.6 billion to $2 billion.
Putting this into historical perspective, our Corporation operated for ten years
before we reached $1 billion in consolidated assets in December of 1998. This
second billion dollars of balance sheet growth has been achieved in less than
three years.

OTHER EVENTS

In the course of 2001, numerous other operational matters were addressed by the
corporate team including a system conversion, enhancement of our Internet
banking product and the expansion of investment advisory and wealth management
services.

At the time of this writing, auditor independence is a topic receiving
significant media attention in the wake of at least one major company's debacle.
One clear indicator of a serious problem is an audit firm's potential conflict
of interest, either real or perceived, when the companies they audit engage them
for significant consulting work, especially when consulting fees they receive
exceed the fees paid for auditing. As a public company, we endeavor to ensure
the independence of our auditors, BDO Seidman LLP, by avoiding the potential
conflict which could arise from receiving services unrelated to auditing,
accounting or tax compliance.

                                   ----------

                      "OUR COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY BANKING

                    IS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR CORE OPERATION."

                                   ----------

EXPECTATIONS

DURING CALENDAR YEAR 2002

Over the course of the current calendar year we expect continued material growth
in our balance sheet. We are focused on continued earnings refinement at a
number of our affiliate banks. This is a major undertaking involving all of us
at Capitol Bancorp Limited.

Less significant this year, but still present as an important part of our
mission, is the exploration of additional DE NOVO bank opportunities. We will
continue to be both prudent and opportunistic in the selection of DE NOVO
initiatives. Further enhancement of services and fully exploiting and capturing
noninterest income opportunities at our existing banks has become a greater
near-term priority.

The effect of the proposed share exchange with Sun Community Bancorp will serve
to enhance our consolidated earnings growth rate over the course of the current
calendar year. Our rate of growth on an earnings-per-share basis will be diluted
temporarily following the share exchange; however, this effect is not expected
to be material in 2003.

                                   ----------

LONGER RANGE PROBABILITY (5 YEARS)

Acknowledging that long-range corporate forecasts are typically even less
reliable than long-range weather forecasts, nevertheless, our current corporate
momentum suggests that we will double the size of our balance sheet over this
five year time period. Organic growth is the product of our maturing banks and
is feasible without additional DE NOVO banks. However, during this same period
we do expect to participate in a number of DE NOVO bank development
opportunities.

Our commitment to community banking is the foundation of our core operation.
Decentralization of management, while often presenting corporate challenges,
serves to decentralize risk and risk concentration. We continue to work toward
local branding, initiated by each of our banks individually, in contrast to a
universal standard typical of large financial institutions focused on
transactional, as opposed to relationship, banking. We will continue to
encourage and foster hometown customer loyalty, a financially and socially
rewarding byproduct of relationship banking, local identity, local
decision-making and local ownership.

We invite you to be with us in this effort.

                                             During the formation of Yuma Community Bank, selecting the Bank name was of

           Yuma Community Bank               church, education, economic activities, recreation, government, and welfare. A
                                             simple community need not have all institutions common to the society, but most

        OPTOMETRIST AND PRESIDENT            community's needs, or it will disintegrate. Hence, our name tells the story.
             Corona Optique                  Yuma Community Bank embraces the philosophy of meeting and serving the
                                             community's needs.
