Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were $24.5 million, up $1.9 million, or 8%, over $22.6 million recorded one year ago.  The breakdown of noninterest expenses for the second quarter and for the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, are shown in the following table:

	Three months ended June 30,								Six months ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2010		2009			% Change			2010		2009		% Change

Total non-interest expenses	$	24,521	$	22,638			8	%	$	48,396	$	43,265		12	%

The increases in equipment and data processing expenses are primarily the result of the new systems that were put into operation during the second quarter of 2009 as part of the transition of certain services away from TD Bank.  Advertising expenses for the second quarter and for the first six months of 2010 were higher than the respective periods in 2009, however, represent a normal level of marketing activity.  The Company curtailed some of its marketing efforts during the first half of 2009 in anticipation of the rebranding of the Company that occurred late June last year. FDIC deposit insurance premiums were lower for the second quarter and for the first half of 2010 as compared to prior year.  Regulatory assessments for the second quarter and first s ix months of 2009 included the impact of a $960,000 special assessment levied by the FDIC against all FDIC insured financial institutions to bolster the Bank Insurance Fund. The overall increases in noninterest expense for the second quarter and the first six months of 2010 over the previous year are also a result of higher costs associated with foreclosed assets and problem loans as well as outside consulting fees for services related to regulatory compliance efforts.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to as the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which we refer to as the Exchange Act, with respect to the financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, future performance and business of Metro Bancorp, Inc. These forward-looking statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor for “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are those that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions that are subject to significant ri sks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors (some of which are beyond our control).   The words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

While we believe our plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions as reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that any of them will be achieved.  You should understand that various factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this document, could affect our future results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, including:

· the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System;

· the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) deposit fund is continually being used due to increased bank failures and existing financial institutions are being assessed higher  premiums in order to replenish the fund;

· general economic or business conditions, either nationally, regionally or in the communities in which we do business, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality and loan performance or a reduced demand for credit;

· continued levels of loan quality and volume origination;

· the adequacy of loan loss reserves;

· the impact of changes in financial services’ laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance);

· the willingness of customers to substitute competitors’ products and services for our products and services and vice versa, based on price, quality, relationship or otherwise;

· unanticipated regulatory or judicial proceedings and liabilities and other costs;

· interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;

· the timely development of competitive new products and services by us and the acceptance of such products and services by customers;

· changes in consumer spending and saving habits relative to the financial services we provide;

· the loss of certain key officers;

· continued relationships with major customers;

9

· our ability to continue to grow our business internally and through acquisition and successful integration of new or acquired entities while controlling costs;

· compliance with laws and regulatory requirements of federal, state and local agencies;

· the ability to hedge certain risks economically;

· effect of terrorist attacks and threats of actual war;

· deposit flows;

· changes in accounting principles, policies and guidelines;

· rapidly changing technology;

· other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological factors affecting the Company’s operations, pricing, products and services; and

· our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

Because such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements.  The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these factors or any of our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this document. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of us except as required by applicable law.
