(Unaudited) 1. GENERAL Pacific State Bancorp is a holding company with one bank subsidiary, Pacific State Bank, (the "Bank"), and two unconsolidated subsidiary grantor trusts, Pacific State Statutory Trusts I and II. Pacific State Bancorp commenced operations on June 24, 2002 after acquiring all of the outstanding shares of Pacific State Bank . The Bank is a California state chartered bank formed November 2, 1987. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System. The Bank's primary source of revenue is interest on loans to customers who are predominantly small to middle-market businesses and middle-income individuals. Pacific State Statutory Trusts I and II are unconsolidated, wholly owned statutory business trusts formed in June 2002 and March 2004, respectively for the exclusive purpose of issuing and selling trust preferred securities. The Bank conducts a general commercial banking business, primarily in the City of Stockton and San Joaquin County, and offers commercial banking services to residents and employers of businesses in the Bank's service area, including professional firms and small to medium sized retail and wholesale businesses and manufacturers. The Company as of June 30, 2006 had 81 employees, including 33 officers. The Bank does not engage in any non-bank lines of business. The business of the Bank is not to any significant degree seasonal in nature. The Bank has no operations outside California and has no material amount of loans or deposits concentrated among any one or few persons, groups or industries. The Bank operates seven branches with its Administrative Office located at 1899 W. March Lane, in Stockton, California; additional branches are located in downtown Stockton and in the communities of Angels Camp, Arnold, Groveland, Modesto and Tracy and a loan production office in Castro Valley, California. The Bank plans to open its 8th branch in Lodi, California, in August 2006. Effective July 12, 2005, Pacific State Bancorp common stock began trading on the Nasdaq(TM) Global Market under the symbol of "PSBC". Prior to July 12, 2005 the Company was traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the same symbol. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Pacific State Bancorp (the "Company") at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, and the results of its operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and its cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain disclosures normally presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for annual financial statements have been omitted. The Company believes that the disclosures in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto 5 included in the Company's 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 may not necessarily be indicative of the operating results for the full year. In preparing such financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the provision for income taxes and the estimated fair value of investment securities. Management has determined that all of the commercial banking products and services offered by the Company are available in each branch of the Bank, that all branches are located within the same economic environment and that management does not allocate resources based on the performance of different lending or transaction activities. Accordingly, the Company and its subsidiary operate as one business segment. No customer accounts for more than 10% of the revenue for the Bank or the Company. 3. LOANS Outstanding loans are summarized below: June 30 December 31, ============================================================================= 2006 2005 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) Commercial $ 48,143 $ 43,063 Agriculture 17,940 17,582 Real estate - commercial 126,861 126,166 Real estate - construction 67,217 43,352 Installment & other 12,344 13,536 ------------ ------------ 272,505 243,699 Deferred loan fees and costs, net 118 213 Allowance for loan losses (2,516) (2,356) ------------ ------------ Total net loans $ 270,107 $ 241,556 ============ ============ ============================================================================= 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is party to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company's management, the ultimate liability with respect to such proceedings will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company as a whole. In the normal course of business there are outstanding various commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the financial statements, including loan commitments of approximately $110,019,000 and $112,066,000 and stand-by letters of credit of $2,640,000 and $2,318,000 at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. However, all such commitments will not necessarily culminate in actual extensions of credit by the Company. Approximately $60,604,000 of the loan commitments outstanding at June 30, 2006 are for real estate loans and are expected to fund within the next twelve months. The remaining commitments primarily relate to revolving lines of credit or other commercial loans, and many of these are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitments do not necessarily represent 6 future cash requirements. Each potential borrower and the necessary collateral are evaluated on an individual basis. Collateral varies, but may include real property, bank deposits, debt or equity securities or business assets. Stand-by letters of credit are commitments written to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are issued primarily relating to purchases of inventory by commercial customers and are typically short term in nature. Credit risk is similar to that involved in extending loan commitments to customers and accordingly, evaluation and collateral requirements similar to those for loan commitments are used. Virtually all such commitments are collateralized. The deferred liability related to the Company's stand-by letters of credit was not significant at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. 5. EARNINGS PER SHARE COMPUTATION Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of outstanding options. 6. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income is reported in addition to net income for all periods presented. Comprehensive income is made up of net income plus other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive income or loss, net of taxes, is comprised of the unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale investment securities. The following table shows comprehensive income and its components for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended --------------------------- --------------------------- (in thousands) 06/30/06 06/30//05 06/30/06 06/30//05 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Net Income 1,307 1,057 $ 2,514 $ 2,005 Other Comprehensive Loss: Change in unrealized loss on available for sale securities (14) (3) (33) (93) Reclassification adjustment -- -- -- -- ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Total Other Comprehensive Loss (14) (3) (33) (93) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Total Comprehensive Income 1,293 1,054 2,481 1,912 ============ ============ ============ ============ 7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company has one stock-based compensation plan which is described in Note 8. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)"), using the modified prospective application transition method, which requires recognizing expense for options granted prior to the adoption date equal to the fair value of the unvested amounts over their remaining vesting period, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and compensation cost for all share based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair values estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). There were no grants made in the first six months of 2006 or 2005. Results for prior periods have not been restated. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations 7 ("APB 25"). No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income prior to January 1, 2006, as all options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company's income before provision for income taxes and net income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $62,000 and $51,000, respectively, lower than if we had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 would have been $.38 and $.35, respectively, without the adoption of SFAS 123 (R) compared to $.37 and $.34, respectively, as reported As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company's income before provision for income taxes and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $124,000 and $103,000, respectively, lower than if we had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006 would have been $.74 and $.67, respectively, without the adoption of SFAS 123 (R) compared to $.72 and $.65, respectively, as reported. SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as a cash flow from financing in the statement of cash flows. These excess tax benefits were not significant for the Company. The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net income and earnings per share if the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 had been applied to the Company's stock option plans for the quarter and six month periods ended June 30, 2005.

STOCK OPTION PLAN At June 30, 2006, the Company has one stock-based employee compensation plan, the Pacific State Bancorp 1997 Stock Option Plan. At June 30, 2006, 28,304 shares of common stock remain reserved under the 1997 plan for issuance to employees and directors through incentive and nonstatutory agreements. The plan requires that the option price may not be less than the fair market value of the stock at the date the option is granted, and that the stock must be paid in full 8 at the time the option is exercised. The options under the plans expire on dates determined by the Board of Directors, but not later than ten years from the date of grant. The vesting period is determined by the Board of Directors and is generally over five years. The Company issues new shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options. A summary of the activity of the plan is as follows: Six Months ended June 30, 2006 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Weighted Weighted Average Aggregate Average Remaining Intrinsic Exercise Contractual Value Shares Price Term (000's) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Options outstanding, beginning of period 840,050 $ 6.96 4.3 Yrs $ 9,694 Options granted -- -- -- Options exercised 60,941 5.75 792 Options canceled 30,000 7.50 165 ------------ ------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Options outstanding, end of period 749,109 $ 7.73 3.9 Yrs $ 8,737 ======================================================================================================================== Options vested or expected to vest at June 30, 2006 702,629 $ 6.38 3.9 Yrs $ 8,291 ======================================================================================================================== Options exercisable, end of period 283,609 $ 6.47 3.9 yrs $ 3,329 ======================================================================================================================== No shares vested for the three month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The total fair value of shares vested during the six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $155,000 and $135,000, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of the Company's common stock for options that were in-the-money at June 30, 2006. The intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable relating to the above stock option plan was $3,329,000 as of June 30, 2006. During the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised relating to the above stock option plan was $604,000 and $296,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised relating to the above stock option plan was $767,000 and $687,000, respectively There were no options granted in the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The Company bases the fair value of the options previously granted on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses assumptions based on expected option life and the level of estimated forfeitures, expected stock volatility, risk free interest rate, and dividend yield. The Company uses historical data to estimate expected option life. Stock volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U. S. Treasury yield curve for the periods within the contractual life of the options in effect at the time of grant. As required by SFAS 123(R), management made an estimate of expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensation costs only for those equity awards expected to vest. Management has estimated the forfeiture rate to be approximately 3% for the remaining non-vested options. As of June 30, 2006, there was $529,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plans. The cost is expected to be realized over a weighted average period of 1.96 years and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures. 9 9. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes In July 2006, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributable for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transitions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management has not completed its evaluation of the impact that FIN 48 will have. 10 <pAGE> ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others (1) significant increases in competitive pressures in the financial services industry; (2) changes in the interest rate environment resulting in reduced margins; (3) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in among other things, a deterioration in credit quality; (4) changes in the regulatory environment; (5) loss of key personnel; (6) fluctuations in the real estate market; (7) changes in business conditions and inflation; (8) operational risks including data processing systems failures and fraud; and (9) changes in the securities market. Therefore the information set forth herein should be carefully considered when evaluating the business prospects of the Company. When the Company uses in this Quarterly Report the words "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "project", "intend, "commit", "believe" and similar expressions, the Company intends to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are not guarantees of performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in this Quarterly Report. Should one or more of the uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, expected, projected, intended, committed or believed. The future results and stockholder values of the Company may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many factors that will determine these results and values are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict. For those statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. INTRODUCTION Effective July 12, 2005, trading of Pacific State Bancorp common stock began on the Nasdaq(TM) Global Market under the symbol of "PSBC". Prior to July 12, 2005 the Company was traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the same symbol. The following discussion and analysis sets forth certain statistical information relating to the Company as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Pacific State Bancorp's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (R), Share Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)") using the modified prospective transition method. Prior to adoption of this statement, the Company accounted for its share-based employee compensation plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. See Notes 7 and 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to implementation of SFAS 123(R). 11 Except as disclosed above, there have been no changes to the Company's critical accounting policies from those discussed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders' on Form 10-K. OVERVIEW For the three months ended June 30, 2006: The Company's net income increased $250 thousand or 23.65% to $1,307 thousand for the second quarter of 2006 from $1,057 thousand for the same period in 2005. The primary contributor to the increase in net income for the second quarter of 2006 was the $873 thousand increase in net interest income over the same period in 2005. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income of $97 thousand and an increase in non-interest expenses of $266 thousand. The increase in non interest expenses consisted primarily of increases in salaries and benefits of $143 thousand, occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses of $48 thousand and other expenses of $75 thousand. In addition the provision for loan losses increased $30 thousand and the provision for income taxes increased $230 thousand. Basic earnings per share increased to $0.37 for the second quarter of 2006 up 19.35% from $0.31 for the same period in 2005. Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.34 for the second quarter of 2006 up 25.93% from the $0.27 for the same period in 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006: The Company's net income increased $509 thousand or 25.39% to $2,514 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 from $2,005 thousand for the same period in 2005. The primary contributor to the increase in net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 was the $2,093 thousand increase in net interest income over the same period in 2005. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income of $267 thousand and an increase in non-interest expenses of $821 thousand. The increase in non interest expenses consisted primarily of increases in salaries and benefits of $376 thousand, occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses of $96 thousand and other expenses of $349 thousand. In addition the provision for loan losses increased $60 thousand and the provision for income taxes increased $436 thousand. Basic earnings per share increased to $0.72 for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 up 22.41% from $0.58 for the same period in 2005. Diluted earnings per share increase to $0.65 for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 up 25.00% from the $0.52 for the same period in 2005. Total assets at June 30, 2006 were $328 million, an increase of $18 million or 5.8%, from the $310 million at December 31, 2005. The growth in assets was primarily in the Company's loans offset by decreases in the level of Federal funds sold and investments. Loans grew $28 million or 11.57% to $270 million at June 30, 2006 from $242 million at December 31, 2005 while Federal funds sold and Investment Securities decreased $10 million over the same period. The growth in loans was also funded by the net income of $2.5 million and growth in deposits of $14 million or 5.21%. Borrowed funds increased $0.9 million or 22.5%. The annualized return on assets was 1.65% and 1.62% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 compared to 1.57% and 1.50% for the same periods in 2005. The annualized return on equity was 22.60% and 22.64 % for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 compared to 23.00% and 22.58% for the same periods in 2005. 12 RESULTS OF OPERATION FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006 Net interest income before provision for loan losses. Net interest income, on a non tax equivalent basis, was $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $873 thousand or 26.25% from $3.3 million for the same period in 2005. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributed to the volume increase in the Company's average loan balances supported by the overall increases in the yields earned primarily on loans and investments. These increases were partially offset by the increases in both the level of average interest bearing liabilities and the increase in the average rates paid, primarily on time deposits and other borrowings. Interest income increased $1.8 million or 39.57% to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $4.5 million for the same period in 2005. The increase in interest income was primarily attributed to volume increases in loan balances and an increase in yield, particularly in loans and investments. Loan volume increased due the bank's increased loan demand. The yield on loans increased as the Federal Open Market Committee increased the prime lending twice during the three month period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in rate totaled 50 basis points for the period. The Company's average loan balances were $265.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, up $56.8 million or 27.2% from $208.5 million for the same period in 2005. The Company's average loan yield was 9.06% for the three months ended June 30, 2006, up 92 basis points from the 8.14% yield for the same period in 2005. Although the Company's average balances of investment securities decreased $1.6 million to $27.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from the $28.6 million for the same period in 2005, interest income increased $143 thousand as a result of the increase in the average yield on investment securities of 222 basis points to 4.66% from 2.44% for the same period in 2005. As a result of the increases in the level of average loans and the yields earned, the overall yield on average earning assets increased 143 basis points to 8.64% for the three months ended June 30, 2006, from 7.21% for the same period in 2005. Interest expense increased $919 thousand, or 76.39% to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, from $1.2 million for the same period in 2005. The increase is primarily attributed to both the increase in levels of the average time deposits and other borrowings and in the overall increases in the rates paid on all interest bearing liabilities. Time deposits increased as the bank experienced disintermediation from lower yielding transaction accounts into higher yielding time deposits. Rates increase during the period as rates on deposits were increased to remain completive with other financial institutions. The Company's average balances of time deposits were $116.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, up $43.2 million, or 59.3% from $72.9 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate paid on time deposits also increased 160 basis points to 4.16% for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from 2.56% for the same period in 2005. As a result interest expense on time deposits increased $738 thousand. The Company's average balances of other borrowings increased $6.7 million to $19.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $12.8 million for the same period in 2005 and the rates paid increased 261 basis points to 6.76% for the three month ended June 30, 2006 from 4.15% for the same period in 2005. As a result interest expense on other borrowings increased $197 thousand. The Company's average balances of interest bearing demand deposits decreased $15.6 million to $89.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $105.0 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate paid increased 30 basis points to 2.57% from 2.27% for the same period in 2005. As a result interest expense on interest bearing demand deposits decreased $22 thousand. As a result of the changes noted above, the net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased 44 basis points or 8.30% to 5.74%, from 5.30% for the same period in 2005. 13 The following table presents for the three month periods indicated the distribution of consolidated average assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity. It also presents the amounts of interest income from the interest earning assets and the resultant yields expressed in both dollars and rate percentages. Average balances are based on daily averages.

(2) The rate change in net interest income represents the change in rate multiplied by the previous year's average balance. (3) The mix change in net interest income represents the change in average balance multiplied by the change in rate. Provision for loan losses. The Company recorded $90 thousand in provision for loan losses for the three month period ended June 30, 2006, up $30 thousand or 50.0%, from the $60 thousand provision for the same period in 2005. Management assesses its loan quality monthly to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses. Based on the information currently available, management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses in the portfolio. However, no assurance can be given that the Company may not sustain charge-offs which are in excess of the allowance in any given period. The Company's loan portfolio composition and non-performing assets are further discussed under the "Financial Condition" section below. Non-Interest Income. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, total non-interest income decreased $97 thousand or 16.25% to $500 thousand, down from $597 thousand for the comparable period in 2005. The decrease in non interest income was primarily the result of a decrease in gain on sale of loans partially offset by an increase in service charges and other fee income. The decrease in gain on sale of loan income is due to the timing of the sale of the loans as well as the decrease in the number and dollar amount of loans sold. Income derived from the gain on sale of loans decreased $196 thousand or 99.80% to $20 thousand, down from $216 thousand for the comparable period in 2005. Service charge fee income increased $61 thousand or 32.3% to $250 thousand, from $189 thousand for the comparable period in 2005. The increase is primarily the result of the growth in the number of deposit accounts from the same period in 2005. 15 Other fee income increased $38 thousand as a result of increases in mortgage referral fees due to an increase in activity during the second quarter of 2006 as opposed to the same period in 2005. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense consists of salaries and related employee benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses, professional fees, appraisal fees, directors' fees, postage, stationary and supplies expenses, telephone expenses, data processing expenses, advertising and promotion expense and other operating expenses. Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $2.5 million compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2005, representing an increase of $266 thousand or 12.2%. Increases in salaries and benefits of $143 thousand or 12.0% are indicative of the additions to staff to expand branch operations in line with their respective growth, and the recognition of stock based compensation expenses of $62,000 as a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R). As of June 30, 2006, there was $529,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company's stock option plan. The related compensation expense is expected to be realized over a weighted average period of 1.96 years. The increase in furniture and equipment expense is attributable to the depreciation on new computer equipment purchased to stay current with technology. The increase in other expense relates to the increased expenses associated with the growth of the Company. The following table sets forth a summary of non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005: Three Months Ended June 30, June 30, (In thousands) 2006 2005 ------------ ------------ Non-interest Expense: Salaries & Benefits 1,335 1,192 Occupancy 208 196 Furniture and Equipment 183 147 Other Expense 726 651 ------------ ------------ Total Non-Interest Expenses 2,452 2,186 ============ ============ Income Taxes. The Company's provision for income taxes includes both federal income and state franchise taxes and reflects the application of federal and state statutory rates to the Company's net income before taxes. The principal difference between statutory tax rates and the Company's effective tax rate is the benefit derived from investing in tax-exempt securities and Company owned life insurance. Increases and decreases in the provision for taxes reflect changes in the Company's net income before tax. The Company's Effective Tax Rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 increased to 39.4% from 37.0% for the same period in June. The increase was due to decreases in the level of investments in tax free municipal bonds. Additionally, income derived Enterprise Zone loan income represents a smaller percentage of the loan portfolio than in prior periods. The following table reflects the Company's tax provision and the related effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Three Months Ended June 30, June 30, (In thousands) 2006 2005 ------------ ------------ Tax Provision $ 850 $ 620 Effective Tax Rate 39.4% 37.0% 16 RESULTS OF OPERATION FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006 Net interest income before provision for loan losses. Net interest income, on a non tax equivalent basis, was $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $2.09 million or 33.87% from $6.2 million for the same period in 2005. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributed to the volume increase in the Company's average loan and investment balances supported by the overall increases in the yields earned primarily on loans and investments. These increases were partially offset by the increases in both the level of average interest bearing liabilities and the increase in the average rates paid, primarily on time deposits and other borrowings. Interest income increased $3.7 million or 43.23% to $12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from $8.4 million for the same period in 2005. The increase in interest income was primarily attributed to volume increases in loan and investment balances and increases in yields on all interest earning assets. Loan volume increased due the bank's increased loan demand. The yield on loans increased as the Federal Open Market Committee increased the prime lending four times during the six period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in rate totaled 100 basis points for the period. The Company's average loan balances were $257.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, up $50.9 million or 24.7% from $206.2 million for the same period in 2005. The Company's average loan yield was 8.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2006, up 128 basis points from the 7.71% yield for the same period in 2005. The Company's average investment balances were $27.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, up $8.9 million, or 47.5%, from $18.6 million for the same period in 2005. The Company's average investment yield was 4.69% for the six months ended June 30, 2006, up 72 basis points from the 3.97% yield for the same period in 2005. Although the Company's average balances of Federal funds sold decreased $9.2 million to $845 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from the $10.0 million for the same period in 2005 and interest income decreased $108 thousand, the average yield on Federal funds sold increased 154 basis points to 4.06% compared to 2.52% for the same period in 2005. As a result of the change in mix of the Company's earning assets and the yields earned, the overall yield on average earning assets increased 146 basis points to 8.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2006, from 7.10% for the same period in 2005. Interest expense increased $1.56 million, or 68.6% to $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, from $2.3 million for the same period in 2005. The increase is primarily attributed to both the increase in the levels of average time deposits and other borrowings and in the overall increases in the rates paid on all interest bearing liabilities. Time deposits increased as the bank experienced disintermediation from lower yielding transaction accounts into higher yielding time deposits. Rates increase during the period as rates on deposits were increased to remain completive with other financial institutions. The Company's average balances of time deposits were $106.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, up $34.2 million, or 47.1% from $72.6 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate paid on time deposits also increased 155 basis points to 3.91% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from 2.36% for the same period in 2005. As a result interest expense on time deposits increased $1,219 thousand. The Company's average balances of other borrowings increased $5.4 million to $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from $12.8 million for the same period in 2005 and the rates paid increased 197 basis points to 6.27% from 4.30% for the same period in 2005. As a result interest expense on other borrowings increased $292 thousand. The Company's average balances of interest bearing demand deposits decreased $7.37 million to $95.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from $103.0 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate paid increased 26 basis points to 2.49% from 2.23% for the same period in 2005. As a result interest expense on interest bearing demand deposits increased $45 thousand. 17 As a result of the changes noted above, the net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased 66 basis points or 12.7% to 5.85%, from 5.19% for the same period in 2005. 18 The following table presents for the six month periods indicated the distribution of consolidated average assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity.

The Company recorded $180 thousand in provision for loan losses for the six month period ended June 30, 2006, up $60 thousand or 50.0%, from the $120 thousand provision for the same period in 2005. Management assesses its loan quality monthly to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses.

However, no assurance can be given that the Company may not sustain charge-offs which are in excess of the allowance in any given period. The Company's loan portfolio composition and non-performing assets are further discussed under the "Financial Condition" section below. Non-Interest Income. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, total non-interest income decreased $267 thousand or 19.5% to $1.10 million, down from $1.37 million for the comparable period in 2005. The decrease in non interest income was primarily the result of a decrease in gains on sales of loans partially offset by increases in other fee income and service charges. The decrease in gain on sale of loan income is due to the timing of the sale of the loans as well as the decrease in the number and dollar amount of loans sold. Income derived for the gain on sale of loans decreased $406 thousand or 69.3% to $180 thousand, down from $586 thousand for the comparable period in 2005. The increase in service charges of $88 thousand or 23.8% to $458 thousand from $370 thousand for the comparable period in 2005 is primarily the result of the growth in the number of deposit accounts from the same period in 2005. 20 The increase in other fee income is primarily the result of an increase in mortgage referral fees due to increases in activity during the first six months of 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Other fee income increased $51 thousand or 12.4% to $461 thousand, from $410 thousand for the comparable period in 2005. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense consists of salaries and related employee benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses, professional fees, appraisal fees, directors' fees, postage, stationary and supplies expenses, telephone expenses, data processing expenses, advertising and promotion expense and other operating expenses. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $5.0 million compared to $4.2 million for the same period in 2005, representing an increase of $821 thousand or 19.5%. Increases in salaries and benefits of $376 thousand or 16.3% are indicative of the additions to staff to expand branch operations in line with their respective growth and the recognition of stock based compensation expenses of $124 thousand as a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R). As of June 30, 2006, there was $529,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company's stock option plan. The related compensation expense is expected to be realized over a weighted average period of 1.96 years. The increase in furniture and equipment expense is attributable to the depreciation on new computer equipment purchased to stay current with technology. The increase in other expense relates to the increased expenses associated with the growth of the company as well as increased legal expense associated with the settlement of a litigation matter.

The principal difference between statutory tax rates and the Company's effective tax rate is the benefit derived from investing in tax-exempt securities and Company owned life insurance. Increases and decreases in the provision for taxes reflect changes in the Company's net income before tax. The Company's Effective Tax Rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 increased to 39.5% from 37.5% for the same period in June. The increase was due to decreases in the level of investments in tax free municipal bonds. Additionally, income derived Enterprise Zone loan income represents a smaller percentage of the loan portfolio than in prior periods. 21 The following table reflects the Company's tax provision and the related effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, (In thousands) 2006 2005 ------------ ------------ Tax Provision $ 1,638 $ 1,202 Effective Tax Rate 39.5% 37.5% FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets at June 30, 2006 were $328 million, an increase of $18 million or 5.8%, from the $310 million at December 31, 2005. The growth in assets was primarily in the Company's loans offset by decreases in Federal funds sold and investment securities. Loans grew $28.6 million or 11.8% to $270 million at June 30, 2006 from $242 million at December 31, 2005. There were no Federal funds sold at June 30, 2006 representing a decrease of $5 million from December 31, 2005. Over the same period investments decreased $5.2 million or 18.2% to $23 million from $28 million. The growth in assets was primarily funded by the net income of $2.5 million and growth in deposits of $14 million or 5.21%. Borrowed funds increased $900 thousand or 22.5%. The change in deposits was comprised of a decrease in non-interest bearing deposits of $4.5 million or 7.2% to $64 million at June 30, 2006 from $69 million at December 31, 2005; this decrease was offset by increases in interest bearing deposits of $18 million or 8.8% to $223 million at June 30, 2006 from $204 million at December 31, 2005. Loan portfolio composition. The Company concentrates its lending activities primarily within Calaveras, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Tuolumne and Alameda Counties. The Company manages its credit risk through diversification of its loan portfolio and the application of underwriting policies and procedures and credit monitoring practices. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a significant portion of its borrowers' ability to repay the loans is dependent upon the professional services and residential real estate development industry sectors. Generally, the loans are secured by real estate or other assets and are expected to be repaid from cash flows of the borrower or proceeds from the sale of collateral. The following table sets forth the amounts of loans outstanding by category as of the dates indicated: June 30 December 31, - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2006 2005 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) Commercial $ 48,143 $ 43,063 Agriculture 17,940 17,582 Real estate - commercial 126,861 126,166 Real estate - construction 67,217 43,352 Installment & other 12,344 13,536 ------------ ------------ 272,505 243,699 Deferred loan fees and costs 118 213 Allowance for loan losses (2,516) (2,356) ------------ ------------ Total net loans $ 270,107 $ 241,556 ============ ============ 22 The Company continues to manage the mix in its loan portfolio consistent with its identity as a community bank serving Northern California and the Central Valley. Net portfolio loans have increased $28.6 million or 11.8%, to $270.1 million at June 30, 2006 from $241.5 million at December 31, 2005. Commercial loans increased $5.6 million or 13.2% to $48.1 million from $43.1 million at December 31, 2005. Agricultural loans increased slightly by $358 thousand or 2.0% to $17.9 million from $17.6 million at December 31, 2005. Real estate - commercial loans increased slightly by $695 thousand or 1.0% to $126.9 million from $126.2 million at December 31, 2005. The largest increase was in real estate - construction loans which increased $23.9 million or 55.1% to $67.2 million from $43.4 million at December 31, 2005. The increase in construction loans during the six month period ended June 30, 2006 was due to delayed draws on construction loans as building was delayed due the longer than normal winter season. Installment and other loans decreased $910 thousand or 6.9% to $12.3 million from $13.5 million at December 31, 2005. The portfolio mix continues to reflect the increase in real estate loans as compared with the mix of a year ago, with commercial and agricultural loans now representing 24.3% of total loans compared to 27.8% in the prior year, real estate construction loans now representing 24.7% compared to 14.9% in the prior year, commercial real estate loans now representing 46.6% compared to 51.9% in the prior year, and installment loans now representing 4.4% compared to 6.3% in the prior year, Nonperforming loans. There were no nonperforming loans at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. Analysis of allowance for loan losses. In determining the amount of the Company's Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALL"), management assesses the diversification of the portfolio. Each credit is assigned a credit risk rating factor, and this factor, multiplied by the dollars associated with the credit risk rating, is used to calculate one component of the ALL. In addition, management estimates the probable loss on individual credits that are receiving increased management attention due to actual or perceived increases in credit risk. The Company makes provisions to the ALL on a regular basis through charges to operations that are reflected in the Company's statements of operations as a provision for loan losses. When a loan is deemed uncollectible, it is charged against the allowance. Any recoveries of previously charged-off loans are credited back to the allowance. There is no precise method of predicting specific losses or amounts that ultimately may be charged-off on particular categories of the loan portfolio. Similarly, the adequacy of the ALL and the level of the related provision for possible loan losses is determined on a judgment basis by management based on consideration of a number of factors including (i) economic conditions, (ii) borrowers' financial condition, (iii) loan impairment, (iv) evaluation of industry trends, (v) industry and other concentrations, (vi) loans which are contractually current as to payment terms but demonstrate a higher degree of risk as identified by management, (vii) continuing evaluation of the performing loan portfolio, (viii) monthly review and evaluation of problem loans identified as having a loss potential, (ix) monthly review by the Board of Directors, (x) off balance sheet risks and (xi) assessments by regulators and other third parties. Management and the Board of Directors evaluate the allowance and determine its desired level considering objective and subjective measures, such as knowledge of the borrowers' businesses, valuation of collateral, the determination of impaired loans and exposure to potential losses. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions and other qualitative factors. In addition, various regulatory 23 agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's ALL. Such agencies may require the Company to provide additions to the allowance based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. There is uncertainty concerning future economic trends. Accordingly it is not possible to predict the effect future economic trends may have on the level of the provision for loan losses in future periods. The adequacy of the ALL is calculated upon three components. First is the credit risk rating of the loan portfolio, including all outstanding loans and leases. Every extension of credit has been assigned a risk rating based upon a comprehensive definition intended to measure the inherent risk of lending money. Each rating has an assigned risk factor expressed as a reserve percentage. Central to this assigned risk factor is the historical loss record of the Company. Secondly, established specific reserves are available for individual loans currently on management's watch and high-grade loan lists. These are the estimated potential losses associated with specific borrowers based upon the collateral and event(s) causing the risk ratings. The third component is unallocated. This reserve is for qualitative factors that may effect the portfolio as a whole, such as those factors described above. Management believes the assigned risk grades and our methods for managing risk are satisfactory. The provision for loan losses increased to $180,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $120,000 for the same period in 2005. The increase in the amount of the provision is a direct result of the Company's analysis of the loan portfolio and the loan loss history of the Company. Management does not believe that there were any adverse trends indicated by the detail of the aggregate charge-offs for any of the periods discussed. The following table summarizes the activity in the ALL for the periods indicated.

Investment securities decreased $5.2 million to $23.3 million at June 30, 2006, from $28.5 million at December 31, 2005. The Company's investment in U.S. Treasury securities decreased to 47.0% of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2006 compared to 52.0% at December 31, 2005. Obligations of U.S. Agencies increased to 30.4% of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2006 compared to 26.3% at December 31, 2005. The Company's investment in corporate bonds decreased to 8.6% of the investment portfolio at June 30, 24 2006 compared to 11.7% at December 31, 2005. Tax-exempt municipal obligation bonds increased to 14.0% of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2006 compared to 10.0% at December 31, 2005. Fed Funds sold decreased $4.7 million, or 100%. The overall decrease was the result of the proceeds from maturities of securities and the cash position being used as a funding source for the increased demand in loans. Deposits. Total deposits were $287.3 million as of June 30, 2006 an increase of $14.2 million or 5.2% from the December 31, 2005 balance of $273.1 million. The Company continues to manage the mix of its deposits consistent with its identity as a community bank serving the financial needs of its customers. Non-interest bearing demand deposit and interest bearing checking deposits decreased to 29.2% of total deposits from 30.9% at December 31, 2005. Money market and savings accounts decreased to 27.2% of total deposits from 34.9% at December 31, 2005. Time deposits increased to 43.6% of total deposits from 34.1% at December 31, 2005 CAPITAL RESOURCES Capital adequacy is a measure of the amount of capital needed to sustain asset growth and act as a cushion for losses. Capital protects depositors and the deposit insurance fund from potential losses and is a source of funds for the investments the Company needs to remain competitive. Historically, capital has been generated principally from the retention of earnings. Overall capital adequacy is monitored on a day-to-day basis by the Company's management and reported to the Company's Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. The Bank's regulators measure capital adequacy by using a risk-based capital framework and by monitoring compliance with minimum leverage ratio guidelines. Under the risk-based capital standard, assets reported on the Company's balance sheet and certain off-balance sheet items are assigned to risk categories, each of which is assigned a risk weight. This standard characterizes an institution's capital as being "Tier 1" capital (defined as principally comprising shareholders' equity and the qualifying portion of subordinated debentures) and "Tier 2" capital (defined as principally comprising Tier 1 capital and the remaining qualifying portion of subordinated debentures and the qualifying portion of the ALL). The minimum ratio of total risk-based capital to risk-adjusted assets, including certain off-balance sheet items, is 8%. At least one-half (4%) of the total risk-based capital is to be comprised of Tier 1 capital; the balance may consist of debt securities and a limited portion of the ALL. As of June 30, 2006 the most recent notification by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must meet the minimum ratios as set forth below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. Management believes that the Company met all of its capital adequacy requirements. 25 The leverage ratio consists of Tier I capital divided by quarterly average assets. The minimum leverage ratio is 3 percent for banking organizations that do not anticipate significant growth and that have well-diversified risk, excellent asset quality and in general, are considered top-rated banks. For all other institutions the minimum rate is 4%. The Company's and the Bank's risk-based capital ratios are presented below To Be Well Capitalized Under For Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Provisions ----------------------- ----------------------- ------------------------ Minimum Minimum Minimum Minimum Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Company As of June 30, 2006: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 35,081 11.89% $ 23,595 8.00% N/A N/A Tier I capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 31,912 10.82% $ 11,798 4.00% N/A N/A Tier I capital (to average assets) $ 31,912 10.06% $ 12,684 4.00% N/A N/A Bank As of June 30, 2006: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 32,777 11.17% $ 23,467 8.00% $ 29,156 10.00% Tier I capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 30,261 10.32% $ 11,734 4.00% $ 17,493 6.00% Tier I capital (to average assets) $ 30,261 9.54% $ 12,685 4.00% $ 15,856 5.00% To Be Well Capitalized Under For Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Provisions ----------------------- ----------------------- ------------------------ Minimum Minimum Minimum Minimum Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Company As of December 31, 2005: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 31,650 11.90% $ 21,268 8.00% N/A N/A Tier I capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 27,654 10.40% $ 10,634 4.00% N/A N/A Tier I capital (to average assets) $ 27,654 9.20% $ 12,067 4.00% N/A N/A Bank As of December 31, 2005: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 29,933 11.50% $ 20,865 8.00% $ 26,082 10.00% Tier I capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 27,577 10.60% $ 10,433 4.00% $ 15,649 6.00% Tier I capital (to average assets) $ 27,577 9.10% $ 12,067 4.00% $ 15,083 5.00% 26 LIQUIDITY The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure efficient and economical funding of the Company's assets consistent with the needs of the Company's depositors and, to a lesser extent, shareholders. This process is managed not by formally monitoring the cash flows from operations, investing and financing activities as described in the Company's statement of cash flows, but through an understanding principally of depositor and borrower needs. As loan demand increases, the Company can use asset liquidity from maturing investments along with deposit growth to fund the new loans. With respect to assets, liquidity is provided by cash and money market investments such as interest-bearing time deposits, federal-funds sold, available-for-sale investment securities, and principal and interest payments on loans. With respect to liabilities, liquidity is provided by core deposits, shareholders' equity and the ability of the Company to borrow funds and to generate deposits. Because estimates of the liquidity needs of the Company may vary from actual needs, the Company maintains a substantial amount of liquid assets to absorb short-term increases in loans or reductions in deposits. As loan demand decreases or loans are paid off, investment assets can absorb these excess funds or deposit rates can be decreased to run off excess liquidity. Therefore, there is some correlation between financing activities associated with deposits and investing activities associated with lending. The Company's liquid assets (cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and available-for-sale investment securities) totaled $37.0 million or 11.3% of total assets at June 30, 2006 compared to $47.7 million or 15.4% of total assets at December 31, 2005. The Company expects that its primary source of liquidity will be earnings of the Company, acquisition of core deposits, and wholesale borrowing arrangements. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in market rates such as interest rates, commodity prices and equity prices. As a financial institution, the Company's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk exposure. Fluctuation in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company's assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, other than those that possess a short term to maturity. Based upon the nature of its operations, the Company is not subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange or commodity pricing. However, the Company's commercial real estate loan portfolio, concentrated primarily in Northern California, is subject to risks associated with the local economies. The fundamental objective of the Company's management of its assets and liabilities is to maximize the economic value of the Company while maintaining adequate liquidity and managing exposure to interest rate risk deemed by management to be acceptable. Management believes an acceptable degree of exposure to interest rate risk results from management of assets and liabilities through using floating rate loans and deposits, maturities, pricing and mix to attempt to neutralize the potential impact of changes in market interest rates. The Company's profitability is dependent to a large extent upon its net interest income which is the difference between its interest income on interest earning assets, such as loans and securities, and interest expense on interest bearing liabilities, such as deposits, trust preferred securities and other borrowings. The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest earning assets reprice differently than its interest bearing liabilities. The Company manages its mix of assets and liabilities with the goal of limiting exposure to interest rate risk, ensuring adequate liquidity, and coordinating its sources and uses of funds. 27 The Company seeks to control its interest rate risk exposure in a manner that will allow for adequate levels of earnings and capital over a range of possible interest rate environments. The Company has adopted formal policies and practices to monitor and manage interest rate risk exposure. As part of this effort, the Company measures interest rate risk utilizing both an internal asset liability measurement system as well as employing independent third party reviews to confirm the reasonableness of the assumptions used to measure and report the Company's interest rate risk, enabling management to make any adjustments necessary. Interest rate risk is managed by the Company's Asset Liability Committee ("ALCO"), which includes members of senior management and several members of the Board of Directors. The ALCO monitors interest rate risk by analyzing the potential impact on interest income from potential changes in interest rates and considers the impact of alternative strategies or changes in balance sheet structure. The ALCO manages the Company's balance sheet in part to maintain the potential impact on net interest income within acceptable ranges despite changes in interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on at least a quarterly basis by the ALCO. In management's opinion there has not been a material change in the Company's market risk or interest rate risk profile for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005 as discussed under the caption "Liquidity and Market Risk" and "Net Interest Income Simulation" in the Company's 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders filed as an exhibit with the Company's 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated here by reference. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a--15(e)), have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company's periodic SEC filings. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions regarding the likelihood of future events, soundness of internal controls, fraud, the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance of achieving their control objectives. There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors during the period covered by this report that have materially affected or could significantly affect internal controls over financial reporting. 28 Part II - Other Information ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The Company is not aware of any material changes to the risks described in our Annual Report. ITEM 4 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
