1 PART I Item 1. Business D&N Capital Corporation (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation incorporated on March 18, 1997 and created for the purpose of acquiring and holding real estate assets. The Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of D&N Bank, a state chartered savings bank, which became wholly owned by Republic Bancorp Inc. on May 17, 1999 through the acquisition of D&N Financial Corporation. On December 1, 2000, the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Republic Bank ("Republic"), a state chartered bank, which is wholly owned by Republic Bancorp Inc., when D&N Bank merged into Republic Bank. All shares of common stock are held by Republic Bank. The Company's preferred stock is traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market(R) under the symbol "DNFCP". The principal business of the Company is to acquire and hold residential and commercial mortgage loans that will generate net income for distribution to stockholders. The Company intends to acquire all its loans from Republic Bank. These loans consist of whole loans secured by first mortgages or deeds of trust on single-family residential real estate properties or on commercial real estate properties ("mortgage loans"). Residential mortgage loans consist of adjustable rate mortgages ("ARMs"), and fixed rate mortgages ("FRMs"). The commercial mortgage loans consist of fixed and variable rate loans, a majority of which have balloon payments. Reinvestments in mortgage loans are made to maintain a ratio of approximately 90% residential and 10% commercial mortgage loans in the portfolio. All mortgage loans are purchased from Republic Bank on a fair value basis. In order to preserve its status as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute annually at least 95% of its "REIT taxable income" (excluding capital gains) to stockholders and meet certain capital ownership and administrative tests. The Company must also annually satisfy two gross income requirements. First, at least 75% of the Company's gross income for each taxable year must be derived directly or indirectly from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property (as interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real property, certain "rents from real property" or as gain on the sale or exchange of such property and certain fees with respect to agreements to make or acquire mortgage loans), from certain types of temporary investments or certain other types of gross income. Second, at least 95% of the Company's gross income for each taxable year must be derived from the above described real property investments and from dividends, interest, and gain from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities and certain other types of gross income (or from any combination of the foregoing). The Company must also satisfy three tests relating to the nature of its assets at the close of each quarter of its taxable year. First, at least 75% of the value of the Company's total assets must be represented by real estate assets (including stock or debt instruments held for not more than one year that were purchased with the proceeds of a stock offering or long-term (at least five years) debt offering of the Company), cash, cash items, and government securities. Second, not more than 25% of the Company's total assets may be represented by securities other than those in the 75% asset class. Third, of the investments included in the 25% asset class, the value of any one issuer's securities owned by the Company may not exceed 5% of the value of the 2 Company's total assets and the Company may not own more than 10% of any one issuer's outstanding voting securities. The Company does not anticipate that it will engage in the business of originating mortgage loans and does not expect to compete with mortgage conduit programs, investment banking firms, savings and loan associations, banks, thrift and loan associations, finance companies, mortgage bankers or insurance companies in acquiring its mortgage loans. As noted above, the Company anticipates that all mortgage loans purchased by it, in addition to those in the initial portfolio, and purchased to date, will be purchased from Republic Bank. The Company does not have any employees, since it has retained Republic Bank to perform certain functions pursuant to the Advisory Agreement described below. All of the officers of the Company are also officers or employees of Republic, their affiliates, or Republic Bancorp Inc. The Company has entered into an Advisory Agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") with Republic Bank (the "Advisor") requiring an annual payment of $125,000. Republic Bank provides advice to the Board of Directors and manages the operations of the Company as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement has an initial term of five years commencing on July 21, 1997 and automatically renews for additional five year periods, unless the Company delivers a notice of nonrenewal to the Advisor as defined in the Advisory Agreement. The Company also entered into two servicing agreements with Republic for the servicing of the commercial and residential mortgage loans. Republic in its role as servicer under the terms of the servicing agreements is herein referred to as the "Servicer". Pursuant to each servicing agreement, Republic performs the servicing of the mortgage loans held by the Company, in accordance with normal industry practice. The Servicing Agreements can be terminated without cause upon a thirty day advance notice given to the Servicer. The servicing fee is 0.375% of the outstanding principal balance for the residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans. The Company intends to operate in a manner that will not subject it to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Company may, under certain circumstances, purchase shares of its preferred stock and other shares of its capital stock in the open market or otherwise, provided, however, that the Company will not redeem or repurchase any shares of its common stock for so long as any preferred stock are outstanding without the approval of a majority of the Independent Directors (as defined in the Certificate of Designation relating to the Series A Preferred Shares). The Company has no present intention of repurchasing any shares of its capital stock, and any such action would be taken only in conformity with applicable federal and state laws and the regulations and the requirements for qualifying as a REIT. The Company has no foreign operations. ITEM 2: PROPERTIES The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 400 Quincy Street, Hancock, Michigan 49930, telephone number (906) 482-2700. 3 ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is not the subject of any material litigation. Neither the Company, Republic Bank, or any of its affiliates is currently involved in nor, to the Company's knowledge, currently threatened with any material litigation with respect to the mortgage loans included in the portfolio, which litigation would have a material adverse effect on the business or operations of the Company. ITEM 4: SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 2000. PART II ITEM 5: MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The Company is authorized to issue up to 250,000 shares of common stock and 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock, $25 par value per share ("preferred stock"), of which 1,210,000 shares have been issued. Republic Bank owns 100% of the Company's 31,781 shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2000 and, accordingly, there is no trading market for the Company's common stock. In addition, Republic Bank intends that, as long as any preferred shares are outstanding, it will maintain ownership of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of the preferred stock, all voting rights are vested in the common stock. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company out of funds legally available therefore, provided that, so long as any shares of preferred stock are outstanding, no dividends or other distributions (including redemption's and purchases) may be made with respect to the common stock unless full dividends on the shares of the preferred stock have been paid. The Company must distribute annually at least 95% of its annual "REIT taxable income" (not including capital gains) to stockholders. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, after there have been paid or set aside for the holders of all series of preferred stock the full preferential amounts to which such holders are entitled, the holders of common stock will be entitled to share equally and ratably in any assets remaining after the payment of all debts and liabilities. Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer: The Company's Certificate of Incorporation contains certain restrictions on the number of shares of common stock and preferred stock that individual stockholders may own. For the Company to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, no more than 50% in number or value of its outstanding shares of capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year (the "Five or Fewer Test"). The capital stock of the Company must also be beneficially owned by 4 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year (the "One Hundred Person Test"). The ownership by Republic Bank of 100% of the shares of common stock of the REIT will not adversely affect the Company's REIT qualification because each stockholder of Republic Bancorp Inc. (the sole stockholder of Republic Bank) counts as a separate beneficial owner for purposes of the Five or Fewer Test and the capital stock of Republic Bancorp Inc. is widely held. Further, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company contains restrictions on the acquisition of preferred stock intended to ensure compliance with the One Hundred Person Test. Such provisions include a restriction that if any transfer of shares of capital stock of the Company would cause the Company to be beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons, such transfer shall be null and void and the intended transferee will acquire no rights to the stock. COMMON STOCK There is no established public trading market in the Company's common stock. As of March 22, 2001, there were 31,781 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock held by one stockholder, Republic Bank. The total common stock dividends paid by the Company were $1,110,000, $903,000, and $1,150,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. PREFERRED STOCK The Company's preferred stock is traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market(R) under the symbol "DNFCP". As of March 28, 2001, there were 1,210,000 issued and outstanding Series A preferred shares held by approximately 2,400 shareholders. The following table reflects the quarterly high and low sales prices and dividends paid for the preferred stock during 2000 and 1999.

MORTGAGE LOANS As of December 31, 2000, the Company had $58,749,000 invested in mortgage loans. This amount represents the principal amount of mortgage loans purchased with the initial portfolio, plus additional purchases since then to replace runoff. All mortgage loans are purchased from Republic Bank. The following table reflects the composition of interest-earning assets as a percentage of total interest-earning assets.

INTEREST RATE RISK The Company's income consists primarily of interest payments on mortgage loans. Currently, the Company does not use any derivative products to manage interest rate risk. If there is a decline in interest rates (as measured by the indices upon which the interest rates of the adjustable rate mortgage loans are based), then the Company will experience a decrease in income available to be distributed to its shareholders. There can be no assurance that an interest rate environment in which there is a significant decline in interest rates, over an extended period of time, would not adversely affect the Company's ability to pay dividends on the preferred stock. 8 STATIC GAP ANALYSIS D&N Capital Corporation's cumulative gap analysis for December 31, 2000 is as follows:

SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of customers engage in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographical region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. Concentration of credit risk indicates the relative sensitivity of the Company's performance to both positive and negative developments affecting a particular industry. The Company's balance sheet exposure to geographic concentrations directly affects the credit risk of the mortgage loans within the portfolio. The following table shows the mortgage loan portfolio by geographic area.
December 31, December 31, 2000 1999 ----------------- ----------------- Amount Percent Amount Percent ------ ------- ------ ------- Loans (Dollars in thousands) ----- Residential Mortgage Loans: Michigan $48,740 83.0% $48,135 80.0% Ohio 2,163 3.7 2,442 4.1 Wisconsin 347 0.6 410 0.6 Other (no state has more than 1%) 1,797 3.0 1,146 1.9 ------- ----- ------- ----- Total Residential Mortgage Loans 53,039 90.3% 52,133 86.6% Commercial Mortgage Loans: Michigan (all Commercial Mortgage Loans) 5,710 9.7 8,062 13.4 ------- ----- ------- ----- Total Mortgage Loan Portfolio $58,749 100.0% $60,195 100.0% ======= ===== ======= =====
9 Approximately 83% of the Company's total residential mortgage loan portfolio are loans secured by residential real estate properties located in Michigan. Consequently, these residential mortgage loans may be subject to a greater risk of default than other comparable residential mortgage loans in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments and natural hazards in Michigan that may affect the ability of residential property owners in Michigan to make payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages. In addition, all of the commercial mortgage properties underlying the Company's commercial mortgage loans are located in Michigan. Consequently, these commercial mortgage loans may be subject to greater risk of default than other comparable commercial mortgage loans in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments in Michigan that may affect the ability of businesses in the area to make payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages. LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash flows to meet all of the Company's financial commitments. In managing liquidity, the Company takes into account various legal limitations placed on a REIT as discussed below in REIT Qualification. The Company's principal liquidity needs are to maintain the current portfolio size through the acquisition of additional mortgage loans as mortgage loans currently in the portfolio mature or prepay, and to pay dividends on the preferred stock and common stock. The acquisition of additional mortgage loans is intended to be funded with the proceeds obtained from repayment of principal balances by the individual mortgagees. The Company does not have and does not anticipate having any material capital expenditures. To the extent that the Board of Directors determines that additional funding is required, the Company may raise such funds through additional equity offerings, debt financing or retention of cash flow (after consideration of provisions of the Code requiring the distribution by a REIT of at least 95% of its "REIT taxable income" and taking into account taxes that would be imposed on undistributed income), or a combination of these methods. The organizational documents of the Company do not contain any limitation on the amount or percentage of debt, funded or otherwise, the Company might incur. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not, without the approval of a majority of the Independent Directors, incur debt for borrowed money other than debt not in excess of 20% of the aggregate amount of net proceeds received from the sale of the preferred stock and common stock of the Company. Any such debt incurred may include intercompany advances made by Republic Bank to the Company. The Company may also issue additional series of preferred stock. However, the Company may not issue additional shares of preferred stock senior to the Series A preferred shares without the consent of holders of at least 66 2/3% of the shares of preferred stock outstanding at that time, including the Series A preferred shares, and the Company may not issue additional shares of preferred stock on a parity with the series A preferred shares without the approval of a majority of the Company's Independent Directors. 10 REIT QUALIFICATION As of December 31, 2000, the Company believed that it was in full compliance with the REIT tax rules and that it will continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The Company calculated (a) its Qualified REIT Assets to be 100% of total assets, compared to the federal tax requirements of 75%; and (b) that 97% of its revenues qualify for the 75% source of income test and 100% of its revenues qualify for the 95% source of income test under the REIT rules. The Company also met all REIT requirements regarding the ownership of its common and preferred stocks and the 2000 and 1999 annual distribution and administrative requirements. OTHER MATTERS On May 17, 1999, D&N Financial Corporation merged with Republic Bancorp Inc. (Nasdaq:RBNC), whereby Republic Bancorp Inc. was the surviving corporation. The combined company created the fourth largest bank holding company with headquarters in Michigan with over $4 billion in assets. The merger constitutes a tax-free reorganization and has been accounted for as a pooling of interest. In December 2000, D&N Bank merged into Republic Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Republic Bancorp Inc. The operations of Republic Bancorp Inc., and the financial services industry generally, are influenced by many factors, including the interest rate environment, competition, legislative and regulatory developments and general economic conditions. From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as possible or assumed future results of our operations, anticipated financial performance, business prospects, new products, and similar matters. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Also, when we use any of the words "believes," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "estimates" or similar expressions we are making forward-looking statements. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS We claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for all of our forward-looking statements. We believe that our forward-looking statements are reasonable. You should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. You should understand that the following important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, in our press releases, and in our public documents to which we refer, could affect our future results and performance. This could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. 11 Factors that might cause such a difference include the following: o significantly increased competition among depository and other financial institutions; o inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments; o general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, that are worse than expected; o adverse changes in the securities markets; o legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business; o the ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; o effects of and changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; o timely development of and acceptance of new products and services; o changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; o effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by regulatory agencies and the Financial Accounting Standards Board; o changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans; o costs and effects of litigation and unexpected or adverse outcomes in such litigation; and o our success and managing risks involved in the foregoing. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The information required by this Item is set forth in the section entitled "Interest Rate Risk" included under Item 7 of this document and is incorporated herein by reference. 12 ITEM 8: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of D&N Capital Corporation We have audited the statements of condition of D&N Capital Corporation as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of D&N Capital Corporation at December 31, 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Detroit, Michigan March 9, 2001 13 Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of D&N Capital Corporation: In our opinion, the statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1998 of D&N Capital Corporation present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of D&N Capital Corporation for the year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

See Notes to Financial Statements. 18 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION D&N Capital Corporation (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation incorporated on March 18, 1997 and created for the purpose of acquiring and holding real estate assets. The Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of D&N Bank, a state chartered savings bank, which became wholly owned by Republic Bancorp Inc. on May 17, 1999 through the acquisition of D&N Financial Corporation. On December 1, 2000, the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Republic Bank ("Republic"), a state chartered bank which is wholly owned by Republic Bancorp Inc., when D&N Bank merged into Republic Bank. All shares of common stock are held by Republic Bank. The Company's preferred stock is traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market(R) under the symbol "DNFCP". The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and prevailing industry practices. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Mortgage Loans: Mortgage loans are carried at the principal amount outstanding, plus premium or discount, upon purchase. Interest income is recognized using the interest method, which approximates a level rate of return over the term of the loan. Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for possible losses on loans is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb potential losses from impaired loans as well as losses from the remainder of the portfolio. Management's determination of the level of the allowance is based upon evaluation of the portfolio, past experience, current economic conditions, size and composition of the portfolio, collateral location and values, cash flow positions, industry concentrations, delinquencies and other relevant factors. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, there was no allowance for losses on loans. Due from Parent: Due from parent represents principal and interest payments due the Company from Republic Bank, partially offset by prior amounts due Republic Bank by the Company. 19 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Income Taxes: The Company has elected to be treated as a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") pursuant to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a result, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income to the extent it distributes at least 95% of its taxable income to its shareholders and it meets certain other requirements as defined in the Code. The Company intends to maintain its qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The Company intends to make qualifying dividends (for federal income tax purposes) of all of its taxable income to its common and preferred stock shareholders, a portion of which may be in the form of "consent" dividends, as defined under the Code. As a result, the Company has made no provision for federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. Dividends: Preferred Stock: Dividends on preferred stock are noncumulative from issuance (July 17, 1997) and are payable quarterly on the last day of March, June, September and December at a rate of 9.00% per annum of the liquidation preference ($25.00 per share). Common Stock: Republic Bank, as sole common shareholder, is entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available after all preferred dividends have been paid. Earnings Per Common Share: Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income after preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. There are no outstanding dilutive securities. NOTE 3 - MORTGAGE LOANS Mortgage loans consist of both residential and commercial mortgage loans. Residential mortgage loans consist of adjustable rate mortgages ("ARMs") and fixed rate mortgages ("FRMs"). The commercial mortgage loans consist of fixed and variable rate loans, a majority of which have balloon payments. The following represents the mortgage loan portfolio: December 31, December 31, 2000 1999 ------------ ------------ (In thousands) Residential mortgage loans $ 53,039 $ 52,133 Commercial mortgage loans 5,710 8,062 ----------- ----------- Total $ 58,749 $ 60,195 =========== =========== Each of the mortgage loans are secured by a mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument which created a first lien on the residential dwellings and/or commercial property. 20 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 4 - DIVIDENDS For each of the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company paid dividends on preferred stock of $2,722,500. The Company paid dividends on common stock of $1,110,000, $930,000 and $1,150,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION The Company has entered into an Advisory Agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") with Republic Bank (the "Advisor") requiring an annual payment of $125,000. The Advisor provides advice to the Board of Directors and manages the operations of the Company as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement has an initial term of five years commencing on September 9, 1997 and automatically renews for additional five year periods, unless the Company delivers a notice of nonrenewal to the Advisor as defined in the Advisory Agreement. Advisory fees totaled $125,000 for the each of years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. The Company also entered into two servicing agreements with Republic Bank for the servicing of the commercial and residential mortgage loans. Pursuant to each servicing agreement, Republic performs the servicing of the mortgage loans owned by the Company, in accordance with normal industry practice. The Servicing Agreements can be terminated without cause upon a thirty day advance notice given to the Servicer. The servicing fee is 0.375% of the outstanding principal balance for the residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans. The servicing fees of $219,000, $225,000 and $217,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively, are netted out of loan interest income, prior to remittance by Republic to the Company. NOTE 6 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, entitled "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments" ("SFAS 107"), requires companies to disclose fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate values, whether or not such financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet. Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by a quoted market price, if one exists. The calculation of estimated fair value is based on market conditions at a specific point in time and may not be reflective of future fair values. Certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are excluded from the scope of SFAS 107. Accordingly, the fair value disclosures required by SFAS 107 may provide only a partial estimate of the fair value of the Company. Fair values among REITs are not comparable due to the wide-range of limited valuation techniques and numerous estimates which must be made. This lack of an objective valuation standard, introduces a great degree of subjectivity to these derived or estimated fair values. Therefore, readers are cautioned against using this information for purposes of evaluating the financial condition of the Company compared with other REITs. Loans were valued using methodologies suitable for each loan type. These methodologies and the key assumptions made are discussed below. 21 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 6 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) The fair value of the Company's commercial loans was estimated by assessing the two main risk components: credit risk and interest rate risk. The estimated cash flows were discounted, using rates appropriate for each maturity that incorporates the effects of interest rate changes. For residential mortgage loans for which market rates for comparable loans are readily available, the fair value was estimated by discounting expected cash flows, adjusted for prepayments. The discount rates used for residential mortgages were secondary market yields for comparable mortgage-backed securities, adjusted for risk. These discount rates incorporated the effects of interest rate changes only, since the estimated cash flows were previously adjusted for credit risk. The book value and fair value of mortgage loans at December 31, 2000 and 1999 are as follows (in thousands): 2000 1999 ------------------------------------------------- Book Value Fair Value Book Value Fair Value ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Residential Mortgage Loans $52,907 $53,071 $52,133 $52,096 Commercial Mortgage Loans 5,702 5,720 8,062 8,088 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total Portfolio $58,609 $58,791 $60,195 $60,184 ======= ======= ======= ======= The carrying values of certain financial assets and liabilities, including cash, accrued interest receivable, due-to-parent and other liabilities, are considered to approximate their respective fair value due to their short-term nature and negligible exposure to credit losses. 22 QUARTERLY DATA (Unaudited) The following is a summary of unaudited quarterly results of operations for the years ended 2000 and 1999.
