See accompanying notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. 4 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 1. Financial Statements (continued) CCBT FINANCIAL COMPANIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 Business CCBT Financial Companies, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on October 8, 1998 under the name of CCBT Bancorp, Inc. (the "Bancorp") at the direction of the Board of Directors and management of Cape Cod Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank") for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company for the Bank. On February 11, 1999, Bancorp became the holding company for the Bank by acquiring 100% of the outstanding shares of the Bank's common stock in a 1:1 exchange for Bancorp common stock. During 1999, the Company's name was changed to CCBT Financial Companies, Inc. The Bank's charter was converted to that of a national bank effective September 1, 1999. Currently, the Company's business activities are conducted primarily through the Bank. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Certain amounts have been reclassified in the September 30, 1999 financial statements to conform to the 2000 presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. Minority Interest During the second quarter of 2000, the Bank concluded its purchase of 51% of the firm of Murray & MacDonald Insurance Services, Inc. of Falmouth, Massachusetts. The minority interest amounts shown in the Company's consolidated balance sheet and income statements represent the interest of the minority shareholder in that company. ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General This Form 10Q contains certain statements that may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company's future results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result, among other factors, of changes in national or regional economic conditions, changes in loan default and charge-off rates, reductions in deposit levels necessitating increased borrowing to fund loans and investments, changes in interest rates, changes in the size and nature of the Company's competition, uncertainties relating to the ability of the Company and its suppliers, vendors and other third parties to resolve Year 2000 issues in a timely manner, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and selected consolidated financial data included within this report. Given that the Company's principal 5 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) activity is ownership of the Bank, for ease of reference, the term "Company" in this item generally will refer to the investments and activities of the Company and the Bank except where otherwise noted. In addition to the acquisition of Murray & MacDonald Insurance Services, Inc., the Company also completed its acquisition of two branches of Fleet Bank, in Wareham and Falmouth, Massachusetts during the second quarter of 2000. These branches added approximately $55 million deposits, at a 15.5% premium, to the Bank at June 30, 2000. This premium is being amortized at the rate of $1.2 million per year over a 7 year period. CCBT Financial Companies, Inc. is a bank holding company. Its sole subsidiary, Cape Cod Bank and Trust Company, N. A., is a commercial bank with twenty-eight banking offices and 32 ATMs located in Barnstable and Plymouth Counties in Massachusetts as well as around the clock telephone and computer banking. As such, its principal business activities are the acceptance of deposits from businesses and individuals and the making of loans. The Bank also has a sizable trust department. The Bank's core market is comprised of retail, wholesale and manufacturing businesses; primary households (including a significant retirement population); and a growing number of second home owners. In addition, a substantial non-core vacation population contributes to seasonal deposit growth. (The remainder of this page intentionally left blank) 6 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2.

8 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months ended September 30, 2000 vs September 30, 1999 Sources of funds As shown in the table on page 7, average interest bearing deposits increased $145.0 million or 24.5% during the third quarter 2000 versus the third quarter 1999 including acquired deposits of the Bank's new offices in Falmouth and Wareham. With exception to the lower rate on NOW accounts, the cost of those funds rose in the 2000 period as management increased deposit rates in response to generally rising market rates. During the second quarter, the Company introduced a one year certificate of deposit with an aggressive and popular 7.20%APY. Concurrently, average borrowed funds, notably FHLB borrowings, declined in the 2000 period while rates paid on these borrowed funds increased. The remaining sources of funds, i.e., noninterest bearing demand deposits, other liabilities and capital, averaged 8.7% higher, including average demand deposit growth of $27.6 million or 14.3% again, including acquired deposits. In total, average sources of funds increased $56.2 million or 4.5% period to period, while the average cost of interest bearing funds increased from 3.97% during the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to 4.69% for the same period in 2000. Uses of funds When compared to the third quarter of 1999, average earning assets were higher in 2000 by 3.6% with a 23.6% increase in average loans outstanding partially offset by reduced investments. Average earning assets approximated 95% of average total assets in each period. Loan growth was spearheaded by residential mortgage, home equity and related construction lending, up a combined $108.7 million or 33.2% in an active local market. Combined commercial lending activities contributed another $40.4 million or 14.0% growth. Consistent with the general rise in market rates, the average yield on earning assets rose to 7.93% for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from the 6.68% reported for the comparable period in 1999. Net interest income Net interest income was $12.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 1999, up 23.8%. The spread and net interest margin ratios were 3.24% and 4.15%, respectively, for the quarter just completed, as compared to 2.71% and 3.49%, respectively, for the comparable 1999 period. As shown in the Volume/Rate Analysis table on page 8, the Company's net interest income improved in both volume and rate categories during the third quarter 2000 as compared to the same quarter last year. Provision for loan losses No provisions were made to the reserve for possible loan losses in the quarters ended September 30, 2000 or 1999. Management believes that, upon continuing review of loan payment and quality statistics, the current reserve continues to be adequate to cover possible losses. Non-interest income Non-interest income totaled $3.99 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000, virtually identical to that earned during the same period in 1999. New revenues from insurance activities were offset by reduced electronic banking fees and lower net gains on sales of securities. The former resulted from the sale of the credit card merchant portfolio in late 1999, a portfolio which had historically generated seasonally high income. 9 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Non-interest expenses During the third quarter of 2000, noninterest expenses totaled $10.2 million, $1.9 million or 23.6% greater than the expenses of the comparable period last year. Approximately one half of this increase reflect direct expenses of the newly acquired insurance agency, one time conversion costs relating to the newly acquired branches, and amortization of intangibles arising from both acquisitions. Salaries and benefits, the largest combined category of expense, rose $901 thousand or 19.9% to total $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2000. While salaries and commissions increased 9.3% in 2000 versus 1999, deferred origination costs on residential mortgages declined such that the total increased $401 thousand or nearly 12.8%. Increased benefits expenses include a greater current provision for possible performance-based compensation awards at year end, consistent with increased profitability thus far in 2000. Higher marketing and printing costs reflect the Company's entrance into new markets, i.e., Wareham, Massachusetts and insurance services. All other expense categories are in line with management expectations . Minority interest The third quarter minority interest on the 49% minority holding of Murray & MacDonald Insurance Services, Inc. includes some initial investment in increasing that company's ability to provide additional service to its enlarged customer base. Income taxes Combined State and Federal income tax expense was $2.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 and $2.2 million was recorded for the same quarter in 1999. The combined effective State and Federal tax rate was 33.5% of pretax income in the third quarter of 2000 and 36.2% of pretax net income for 1999. Net income Consolidated net income of $4.4 million, represented earnings per share of $0.51 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $3.9 million or $0.43 per share for the comparable quarter last year. Annualized returns on average assets and average equity were 1.34% and 19.3%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to 1.23% and 17.40%, respectively, for the prior comparable period.

12 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Nine months ended September 30, 2000 vs September 30, 1999 Sources of funds As shown in the table on page 11, average interest bearing deposits outstanding increased $69.3 million when comparing the nine months of 2000 versus the same period in 1999 and include deposits acquired during the second quarter, 2000. With exception to lowered rates on NOW accounts, the cost of those funds was greater in the 2000 period as management raised deposit rates in response to generally rising market rates. Average borrowed funds decreased $35.0 million in the 2000 period. The rates paid on these borrowed funds were higher than in the 1999 period, again reflecting the general rise in market rates. The remaining sources of funds, i.e., noninterest bearing demand deposits, other liabilities and capital, averaged 7.5% higher in the 2000 period, including demand deposit growth of $19.1 million or 11.4%. In total, average sources of funds increased $54.0 million or 4.5% while the average cost of interest bearing funds rose from 3.95% during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to 4.54% in 2000. Uses of funds Average loans were higher by $112.8 million or 18.2% in 2000 while investments were lower by $64.1 million or 12.0%, and on a combined basis, approximated 95% of average total assets during each period. Loan growth was spearheaded by residential mortgage, home equity and related construction lending, up $82.8 million or 26.2% in an active local market. Accordingly, the investment portfolio declined in size with reductions occurring primarily in mortgage related categories. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 the average yield on earning assets rose to 7.71% from the 6.62% reported for the comparable period in 1999. Net interest income Net interest income was $35.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $29.3 million for the same period in 1999, up 21.5%. The spread and net interest margin ratios were 3.18% and 3.95%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to 2.67% and 3.38%, respectively, for the comparable 1999 period. While consumer attraction to lower residential mortgage rate opportunities lowered yields on the residential mortgage portfolio and the securities portfolio in 1999, interest rates have been rising in 2000, thereby having the opposite effect. These factors, along with increased commercial and commercial real estate construction lending, are significant contributors to the increased net interest income. As shown on the Volume/Rate Analysis on page 12, the Company's net interest income improved on both volume and rate increases during the first nine months of 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999. Provision for possible loan losses No provisions were made to the reserve for possible loan losses in the quarters ended September 30, 2000 or 1999. Management believes that, upon continuing review of loan payment and quality statistics, the current reserve continues to be adequate to cover possible losses. Non-interest income Non-interest income totaled $12.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, up $865 thousand or 7.8% compared to the $11.2 million earned during the same period in 1999. Higher Financial Advisor (trust and investment) fees, loan fees and insurance commissions contributed to this increase, along with increased income from electronic banking. See also comments regarding noninterest income changes during the third quarter 13 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) 2000 within this document entitled "Results of Operations - Three Months ended September 30, 2000 vs Three Months ended September 30, 1999". Non-interest expense During the first nine months of 2000, noninterest expenses totaled $28.2 million, $4.4 million or 18.5% greater than the expenses of the comparable period last year. Salaries and benefits, the largest combined category of expense, rose $2.2 million or 17.1% to total $15.1 million for the first nine months of 2000 while All other expenses increased $539 thousand reflecting one-time write-offs of $303 thousand and an increased commitment to training and education, as reported in the first quarter of 2000. Other expense categories reflect, in part, additional expenses of the insurance services operation, one time conversion expenses of new branches, amortization of intangibles resulting from acquisitions, and general increases in the cost of Bank operations in accordance with expectations. Minority interest The year-to-date minority interest on the 49% minority holding of Murray & MacDonald Insurance Services, Inc. includes some initial investment in increasing that company's ability to provide additional service to its enlarged customer base. Income taxes The combined State and Federal income tax expense was $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, up $579 thousand or 9.6% over the same period last year on higher pretax income. The combined effective State and Federal tax expense equaled 33.9% of pretax income thus far in 2000 as compared to 36.2% in 1999. Net income Consolidated net income was $12.8 million representing earnings per share of $1.49 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $10.6 million or $1.18 per share for the comparable nine months ended September 30, 1999. Annualized returns on average assets and average equity were 1.36% and 19.5%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to 1.17% and 16.65%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Investment securities declined $70.5 million to $392.9 million at September 30, 2000, with deference to significant loan growth. Reductions primarily occurred in U.S. Government and other collateralized mortgage obligations. At September 30, 2000, Other debt securities consisted of approximately $137.0 million floating rate and $32.3 million short term fixed rate securities, nearly all backed by assets other than residential mortgages. 15 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Sales of securities produced net gains of $45 thousand during the quarter ended September 30, 2000 compared to net gains of $224 thousand during the same period in 1999. Net gains on security sales amounted to $73 thousand and $283 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Loans The following is a summary of the Company's outstanding loan balances as of the dates indicated. September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 ------------ ------------- (in thousands) Mortgage loans on real estate: Residential $ 367,795 $ 290,722 Commercial 222,999 203,987 Construction 91,957 68,809 Equity lines of credit 35,426 23,036 ----------- ------------ 718,177 586,554 ----------- ------------ Other loans Commercial 68,544 77,776 Industrial revenue bonds 1,668 1,137 Consumer 9,068 9,275 ----------- ------------ 79,280 88,188 ----------- ------------ Total loans 797,457 674,742 Less: Allowance for loan losses (11,973) (11,158) ----------- ------------ Loans, net $ 785,484 $ 663,584 =========== ============ Loans held for sale $ 165 $ 200 =========== ============ Portfolio loans increased $122.7 million or 18.2% to $797.5 million at September 30, 2000 as compared to December 31, 1999, led by residential mortgage loans and equity lines of credit which increased a combined $89.5 million or 28.5%. During the period, new residential mortgage volume in the residential loan category included originations of $5.4 million at fixed rates and $60.1 million at adjustable rates. Commercial real estate loans increased $19.0 million or 9.3% while combined residential and commercial real estate construction loans increased $23.1 million or 33.6%. Included in this latter category are a number of new loan participations for the construction of office buildings in the Boston area. Commercial loans decreased $9.2 million or 11.9% as the seasonal upswing in the economy enabled businesses to pay balances down. Non performing assets and loan loss experience: As shown in the next table, non-performing assets were $3.8 million or 0.28% of total assets at September 30, 2000 compared to $3.3 million or 0.27% of total assets at December 31, 1999. Accrual of interest income on loans is discontinued when it is questionable whether the borrower will be able to pay the principal and interest in full and/or when loan payments are 60 days past due, or 90 days past due if the loan is fully secured by real estate or other collateral held by the Bank. 16 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2.

Management believes that, upon review of loan quality and payment statistics, provisions from current income were unnecessary in the indicated periods, notwithstanding growth in the loan portfolio. The reserve represented 1.50% of total loans at September 30, 2000, 1.65% at December 31, 1999 and 1.80% at September 30, 1999. Management considers the reserve to be adequate at September 30, 2000, although there can be no assurance that the reserve is adequate or that additional provisions might be necessary. The Company had outstanding commitments to originate new residential and commercial mortgages of $33.0 million at September 30, 2000 and $57.0 million at December 31, 1999. Additional unadvanced funds on various loan types at September 30, 2000 are shown in the next table. (The remainder of this page intentionally left blank) 17 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Additional Unadvanced Loan Commitments September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 --------- --------- (in thousands) Commercial loans Dealer floor plan $ 11,999 $ 8,067 Lines of credit 42,320 54,735 Other 4,435 1,781 Commercial mortgages Construction 17,547 20,197 Other 1,043 613 Residential mortgages Home equity 42,457 34,734 Consumer loans Lines of credit 2,812 2,023 --------- --------- Total $ 122,613 $ 122,150 ========= ========= Deposits The following table is a summary of deposits outstanding as of the dates indicated: September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 ------------ ------------- (in thousands) Demand deposits $ 221,639 $ 167,624 NOW accounts 140,730 120,307 Savings deposits 148,194 158,142 Money market accounts 168,314 138,287 Certificates of deposit greater than $100,000 89,270 60,666 Other time deposits 215,329 121,038 ------------ ------------ Total deposits $ 983,476 $ 766,064 ============ ============ Reflecting core deposit growth, the recent acquisition of branches in Wareham and Falmouth, Massachusetts and the seasonal nature of the Cape Cod economy as discussed in "Liquidity" on page 20 herein, total deposits at September 30, 2000 were $217.4 million or 28.4% higher than total deposits at December 31, 1999. Generally, the Company's strategy is to price deposits that reflect national market rates, offering higher alternative rates based on increasing amounts deposited. Between May and September 2000, the Bank initiated a premium offering rate of 7.20%APY for a one-year CD which has proven successful. Also during the second quarter 2000, the Company accepted $25 million brokered deposits, included in Other time deposits in the table above. Interest rates paid are frequently reviewed and are modified to reflect changing conditions. 18 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Borrowed Funds Historically, the Company has selectively engaged in short and long term borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston, and has sold securities under agreements to repurchase, to fund loans and investments. At September 30, 2000, borrowed funds totaled $244.7 million, nearly $122.6 million or 33.4% lower than borrowed funds at December 31, 1999. This decrease responds to the previously described deposit growth during the period. Stockholders' Equity The Company's capital to assets ratio was 7.05% at September 30, 2000 compared to 6.96% December 31,1999. The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's and the Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and/or the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Holding companies, such as the Company, are not subject to prompt corrective action provisions. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). The following schedule displays these capital guidelines and the ratios of the Company and the Bank as of September 30, 2000: Minimum September 30, 2000 Regulatory ------------------ Guidelines Company Bank ----------- --------- ------- Tier 1 leverage capital 3.00% 6.61% 6.46% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets 4.00% 9.66% 9.38% Total capital to risk-weighted assets 8.00% 10.90% 10.63% The Company's book value at September 30, 2000 was $10.93 per share compared to $9.95 per share at December 31, 1999. 19 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) LIQUIDITY The Bank normally experiences a seasonal swing in its liquidity each year due to the nature of the economy in its market area. Liquidity is usually high in late summer and early fall and the annual low point is usually in the early spring. The Bank's investment portfolio is of high quality and is highly marketable although a gain or loss would be realized if the market value of securities sold were not equal to their adjusted book value at date of sale. Alternately, the Bank can borrow funds using investment securities as collateral. The Bank has an available line of credit of $5.0 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston, has established a line of credit for the purchase of federal funds from a regional bank and may borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank if necessary. ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT Through the Asset/Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), a subcommittee of the Board of Directors of the Bank, the Company and the Bank monitor the level and general mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, with particular attention to those assets and liabilities which are rate-sensitive. The primary objective of ALCO is to manage interest rate risk in accordance with policies approved by the Board of Directors regarding acceptable levels of interest rate risk, liquidity and capital. The committee meets monthly and sets the rates paid on deposits, approves loan pricing and reviews investment transactions. Given the substantial liquidity from cash flow and maturities of the Company's investment portfolio, the sizable proportion of rate sensitive loans to total loans, and the large core deposit base, ALCO believes the Company to be moderately asset-sensitive to changes in interest rates. Nevertheless, the Company's strategy has included the funding of certain fixed rate loans with medium term borrowed funds in order to mitigate a margin squeeze should interest rates rise. The Cape Cod market is one in which competing financial institutions frequently offer a wide range of yields for similar deposit products. Within this market, the Company finds it necessary, from time to time, to offer higher rates than it would otherwise justify, thereby increasing pressure on net interest income. In order to offset this pressure somewhat, the Company is strategically focusing on customer relationship profitability. COMPUTER PROCESSING IN THE YEAR 2000 The statements in the following section include "Year 2000 readiness disclosure" within the meaning of the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Act of 1998. Much computer software has been written which allows the year in a date to be recognized and/or stored based on a two-digit number, i.e., "12/31/99", clearly recognizable as meaning December 31, 1999. The same is true of a variety of hardware devices with built-in clock-calendars, such as computers. In some cases, this could have created problems at the turn of the century because "01/01/00" could have been interpreted to mean January 1, 1900 rather than January 1, 2000. If such circumstances had not been identified and corrected in advance, they could have caused system failure or erroneous calculations of such items as interest income or expense. This could potentially have had a significant impact on the Bank's ability to do business. For the Bank's internal computer processing, it was determined to be necessary to replace some of its computers and to acquire more recent versions of certain software. $800,000 was spent for this purpose in 1998 and an additional $540,000 was spent in 1999. These costs have been capitalized and are being depreciated over the useful lives of the items purchased. 20 PART I FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) The Bank relies on outside vendors for much of its critical data processing. Prior to December 31, 1999, these vendors assured the Bank that they were Year 2000 compliant. The Bank's testing confirmed this on those systems that were considered to be critical or high risk. Contingency plans for processing of daily work in the event of failure of any of these systems were in place on December 31, 1999. As a result of these efforts and assurances, the Company has not experienced computer failures of any kind affecting either internal or subcontracted computer processing as of September 30, 2000. The Bank is also dependent on other providers in the conduct of its business, most notably for electrical power and telecommunications. Had these providers experienced Year 2000 problems, disruption of service, especially if prolonged, could have seriously effected the Bank's ability to conduct business as usual. The Company has not experienced any disruption of services from these providers. Certain of the Bank's customers may also have been subject to Year 2000 problems which may have impacted their ability to do business. Among other repercussions, this could have reduced a customer's ability to make loan payments to the Bank. To the Company's knowledge, no customers have been seriously affected by Year 2000 problems. Other customers may withdraw funds from the Bank in anticipation of possible Year 2000 disruptions. The Bank has traditionally maintained a substantial liquidity position in the normal course of doing business, and expects to continue to maintain a liquid investment portfolio to meet any unusual deposit outflows. Although the Company has not experienced any Year 2000 related problems, some additional dates remain which might disrupt its normal business operations. These are listed below. Until these dates, and others yet unidentified are successfully passed, and until any Year 2000 issues that might arise are corrected, the Company's Year 2000 readiness and contingency plans will remain in effect. October 10 First date to require an eight digit date field Status: open December 31 2000/2001 year end Status: open Please refer to the statement regarding "Forward-Looking Information" at the beginning of Part II, Item 7 of this 10Q entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" with regard to any forward-looking statements in this section. Although management of the Bank and the Company believe that their responses to the Year 2000 issue are appropriate, neither the Bank nor the Company can guarantee their Year 2000 readiness, nor that of material vendors or customers, nor the effectiveness of contingency plans in the event of a failure in any of the Bank's computer systems.
