Participating employees may defer a portion of their compensation in the 401(k) Plan. The Corporation, at its option, may make matching contributions on participant deferrals at a rate determined annually by the Corporation (25 percent of the employees first 5 percent of compensation deferred in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively). The matching contribution vests over a period of seven years. For the calendar years 1998, 1997 and 1996, the accrued contributions to the 401(k) Plan were $40,592, $30,788 and $27,925, respectively.

The ESOP may borrow funds which, in addition to the Corporation's cash contributions, may be used to purchase the Corporation's Common Stock from the Corporation or on the open market. Vesting under the ESOP occurs on a graduated seven-year vesting schedule at the expiration of which the employee is 100 percent vested.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS Directors of the Corporation, are compensated for attendance at board meetings of the Corporation's two subsidiaries, Regency Bank and Regency Investment Advisors, Inc., but not for attendance of the Corporation's board meetings. Directors are also compensated for attendance at meetings for committees of the Corporation and the Bank. During January through August 1998, directors were paid $750 monthly as compensation for Board meetings attended and the Vice Chairman of the Board received $1,125 for Board 7 meetings attended, except that the Chairman of the Board, Mr. Hertel, was paid $1,500 per meeting attended until March 1998, when he no longer received director's fees for meetings attended. Non-employee directors also received $150 for any committee meetings attended and the chairman of each committee received $225 for committee meetings attended. Effective September 1, 1998, the Board of Directors voted to increase the Board and Committee fees, at which time the directors were paid $1,000 monthly as compensation for Board meetings attended, the Vice Chairman of the Board received $1,500 for Board meetings attended, non-employee directors received $300 for committee meetings attended and the Chairman of each committee received $450 for committee meetings attended. In 1998, the total amount of fees paid to directors was $155,598. In 1989, the Bank adopted a Directors' Deferred Fee Plan (the "DDF Plan") and following formation of the Corporation, the DDF Plan was assumed by the Corporation, whereby an eligible director, including an employee director, may voluntarily elect to defer some or all of his or her compensation (salary or fees), for services as a director of the Corporation and the Bank and their respective subsidiaries, in exchange for payment of a deferred benefit in the future. The deferred amount is not taxable to the director and is not a tax deductible expense for the Corporation until such amounts are actually paid to the director. Under the DDF Plan, each participating director has entered into a written agreement (a "DDF Agreement"), pursuant to which the director agrees to defer fees, in exchange for retirement benefits. The amount of fees deferred by each director varies from year to year during the term of the Agreement due to changes in director compensation and the deferral election selected by each director. Fees deferred for 1998 were for director Castanos, $19,000; Jura, $13,200; Price, $4,500; and Suchy, $12,250. Assuming that the fees deferred through 1999 remain constant, it is estimated that the annual retirement benefit for each director will be; Castanos, $42,331; Jura, $26,924; Suchy, $122,876; and Watts, $6,845. The estimated retirement benefit is also based on the assumption that interest will accrue at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. The Corporation's Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may change such interest rate from time to time. Any change in the interest rate will affect the amount of the annual retirement benefit. Directors have deferred fees under their respective DDF Agreements for periods ranging from five to ten years. At the end of the fifth or tenth year, as applicable, the director will commence receiving the annual retirement benefit in substantially equal monthly installments over the period of years equal to the deferred fee period. Since inception of the DDF Plan, directors Hertel, Price and Watts have elected to discontinue participation thereunder. Directors Hertel, Price and Watts will receive retirement benefits, if any, based upon the amounts deferred prior to termination of their participation, in installments for the periods elected prior to termination of their participation. If the director dies prior to or during his retirement, the director's beneficiary will receive an amount equal to the amount the director would have received if he or she had lived for the full term of the DDF Agreement. Such amount will be paid in equal installments as indicated above or in one lump sum, as determined by such beneficiary. If the director's service is terminated prior to his retirement for any reason other than death, he or she will receive the balance in the deferred compensation account plus accrued interest as described above within six months of such termination. The Bank has purchased single premium universal life insurance policies on the life of each participant in the DDF Plan. The premium was paid at the inception of the policy. There is also an annual mortality cost paid by the Bank which was $36,235 for 1998. In addition, the Bank recorded an expense of $8,079 for the cash surrender charges that would be assessed if the policies were canceled. The expense will be reversed when the policies have been held approximately eight to ten years. The Bank is the owner and beneficiary of such life insurance policies, which generally covers the Bank's contingent liability associated with the possible premature death of the covered individual and the cost of interest on the deferred amounts. If a participant in the DDF Plan ceases to be a director prior to retirement, the insurance policy on such participant can be transferred to other employees or directors. 8 EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE IN CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS The Bank entered into an employment agreement on August 22, 1996, with Steven F. Hertel, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank. The employment agreement is terminable at will by either Mr. Hertel or the Bank. If the agreement is terminated by the Bank, other than for cause, Mr. Hertel will be entitled to severance compensation equal to one (1) times his aggregate annual compensation during the year the termination occurs. Mr. Hertel's annual base salary, as of December 31, 1998, is $178,000 per year. Annual increases in Mr. Hertel's salary are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Mr. Hertel receives an automobile allowance, life insurance, reimbursement of business expenses, standard health, dental and disability insurance, and golf and country club expense reimbursement. Additionally, Mr. Hertel will participate in the bonus program, ESOP, 401(k) Plan and all such benefits as the Corporation or the Bank may in the future establish for its employees and/or executive officers. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation or Bank, the employment agreement shall terminate and he shall receive a payment equal to two (2) times the average of his last five years' aggregate compensation. The Bank entered into employment agreements on August 22, 1996, with Steven R. Canfield, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Bank and Robert J. Longatti, Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer of the Bank. The employment agreements are terminable at will by either the Bank or Mr. Canfield or Mr. Longatti, respectively. If their respective agreement is terminated by the Bank, other than for cause, Mr. Canfield or Mr. Longatti, respectively, will be entitled to severance compensation equal to six (6) months of their then current base salary and bonus or profit-sharing compensation, if any, for the year in which the termination occurs. Mr. Canfield and Mr. Longatti's annual base salaries, as of December 31, 1998, were $90,000 and $92,000, respectively. Annual increases in Mr. Canfield's and Mr. Longatti's salary are at the discretion of the Board of Directors or Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Canfield and Mr. Longatti receive an automobile allowance, reimbursement of business expenses, standard health, dental and disability insurance. Mr. Canfield receives reimbursement for golf and country club expense. Additionally, Mr. Canfield and Mr. Longatti will participate in the bonus program, ESOP, 401(k) Plan and all such benefits as the Corporation or the Bank may in the future establish for its employees and/or executive officers. In the event of a change in control of the Corporation or Bank and within one year following the change in control, their employment is terminated, or without their consent there is an adverse change in position, among other matters, then they shall receive a payment equal to one times the average of their last five years compensation, respectively. Recognizing the importance of building and retaining a competent management team, in November 1992, the Board of Directors purchased insurance policies on the lives of Steven F. Hertel, Steven R. Canfield and Robert J. Longatti, in the amounts of $470,000, $192,000 and $425,000, respectively, for the purpose of providing death, disability and retirement benefits. The policies were purchased through Bank Compensation Strategies Group and are endorsed by the California Bankers Association, American Bankers Association and numerous other state banking associations. The Bank is the owner and beneficiary, under such policies. Consistent therewith, the Bank agreed in 1993 to provide conditional deferred compensation benefits to Steven F. Hertel, Steven R. Canfield and Robert J. Longatti. The agreements with such executives are designed to provide an incentive for each executive to remain with the Bank by defining and increasing, over the executive's term of employment, the amount of the annual benefit each executive is to receive. Payments are to be made only after certain specified events have occurred, including formal retirement on or after a specified age. While certain events may cause the amounts payable to be reduced, the agreements provide for a maximum annual benefit payment of $100,000 in the case of Steven F. Hertel, and $60,000 for Steven R. Canfield and Robert J. Longatti. In each case, the annual benefit amount is to be paid in equal monthly installments over fifteen (15) years (or such shorter period, as determined by the Bank's Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion). In the event of the executive's death prior to the receipt of all amounts due, the Bank will pay to the executive's spouse or designated beneficiary the remaining amounts over the remaining payout period. Other events which may alter when payment of the annual benefit is to begin include: (i) "disability," as defined in the agreement, in which case the executive will begin to receive the annual benefit at the earlier of the defined retirement age or when he is no longer entitled to receive disability benefits under his principal disability insurance policy, and (ii) 9 either termination of employment without cause or constructive termination following a "change in control," in which case the executive is entitled to all or a portion of the annual benefit depending upon length of service prior to termination. If, however, the executive's employment is terminated for cause, or if the executive voluntarily terminates his employment prior to an event entitling him to benefits under the agreement, all rights and benefits under the agreement are forfeited.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS Except as described below, there have been no transactions, or series of similar transactions, during 1998, or any currently proposed transaction, or series of similar transactions, to which the Corporation or the Bank was or is to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $60,000 and in which any director (or nominee for director) of the Corporation or the Bank, executive officer of the Corporation or the Bank, any shareholder owning of record or beneficially 5 percent or more of the Corporation's Common Stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest. CERTAIN BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS In July 1998, Regency Bancorp engaged Belle Plaine Financial LLC to act as the exclusive financial advisor to Regency Bancorp in connection with its efforts to acquire, invest in, or sell depository institutions and/or other businesses. William J. Ruh, a director of Regency Bancorp, is a Senior Vice President and Principal of Belle Plaine Financial LLC. INDEBTEDNESS OF MANAGEMENT The Corporation, through the Bank, has had, and expects in the future to have banking transactions in the ordinary course of its business with many of the Corporation's directors and officers and their associates, including transactions with corporations of which such persons are directors, officers or controlling shareholders, on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing for comparable transactions with others. Management believes that such transactions comprising loans did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Loans to executive officers of the Corporation and the Bank are subject to limitations as to amount and purpose prescribed in part by the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, and the regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. 13 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15 (d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
