MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS In addition to the historical information this Quarterly Report contains certain forward-looking statements. The reader of this Quarterly Report should understand that all such forward-looking statements are subject to various uncertainties and risks that could affect their outcome. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those suggested by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, variances in the actual versus projected growth in assets, return on assets, loan losses, expenses, rates charged on loans and earned on securities investments, rates paid on deposits, competition effects, the potential effects of the California energy crisis, fee and other noninterest income earned, the economic uncertainty created by the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the United States' war on terrorism, as well as other factors. This entire Quarterly Report should be read to put such forward-looking statements in context and to gain a more complete understanding of the uncertainties and risks involved in the Company's business. Moreover, wherever phrases such as or similar to "In Management's opinion", "Management considers" are used, such statements are as of and based upon the knowledge of Management, at the time made and are subject to change by the passage of time and/or subsequent events, and accordingly such statements are subject to the same risks and uncertainties noted above with respect to forward-looking statements.

(2) Loan interest income includes loan fee income of $723 in 2001 and $457 in 2000. (3) Average yields shown are taxable-equivalent. On a non- taxable basis, 2001 interest income was $496 with an average yield of 4.80%; in 2000 non-taxable income was $507 and the average yield was 4.82%. (4) Net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by the average balance of total earning assets for the applicable period.
10 Net interest income before the provision for loan losses on a taxable-equivalent basis for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 was $3,883,000 and $2,880,000, respectively. These results equate to a 35% increase in net interest income for the third quarter of 2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000. Loan fee income, which is included in interest income from loans, was $181,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, compared with $144,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses on a taxable-equivalent basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 was $10,501,000 and $8,104,000, respectively. These results equate to a 30% increase in net interest income for the first nine months of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. Loan fee income, which is included in interest income from loans, was $723,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, compared with $457,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The average balance of earning assets increased $67,400,000 or 34% during the twelve months ended September 30, 2001. Taxable-equivalent interest income increased $3,131,000 or 26% in the first nine months of 2001 compared with the same period of 2000. Increase in the volume of earning assets accounted for $3,706,000 of this increase, with a decrease of $575,000 attributable to lower rates. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $45,059,000 or 31% during the first nine months of 2001 compared with the same period in 2000. Interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased $734,000 in 2001 compared with 2000. Increase in the volume of deposits and other borrowings accounted for $970,000 of this increase, while a $236,000 decrease was attributable to a decrease in rates. Management does not expect a material change in the Company's net interest margin during the next twelve months as the result of a modest increase or decrease in general interest rates. The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in interest income and interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 over September 30, 2000 resulting from changes in assets and liabilities volumes and rates. The change in interest due to both rate and volume has been allocated in proportion to the relationship of absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and reduced by net charge offs. The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may vary from current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically and as adjustments become necessary they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. The Company makes credit reviews of the loan portfolio and considers current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and other factors in determining the adequacy of the allowance balance. This evaluation establishes a specific allowance for all classified loans over $50,000 and establishes percentage allowance requirements for all other loans, according to the classification as determined by the Company's internal grading system. As of September 30, 2001 the allowance for loan losses of $2,601,000 represented 1.40% of loans outstanding. As of September 30, 2000, the allowance represented 1.45% of loans outstanding. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, $333,000 was charged to expense for the loan loss provision, compared with $280,000 for the same period in 2000. There were no net charge-offs for loans for the first nine months of 2001 compared with net charge-offs for all loans of $99,000, or 0.01% of total loans as of September 30, 2000. The following table summarizes changes in the allowance for loan losses:
In 000's September 30, 2001 September 30, 2000 Balance, beginning of year $2,268 $1,987 Provision for loan losses 333 280 Loans charged off (5) (102) Recoveries of loans previously charged off 5 3 ------ ------ Balance, end of period $2,601 $2,168 ====== ====== Allowance for loan losses to total outstanding 1.40% 1.45% loans
There were no loans on non-accrual status at September 30, 2001 or at September 30, 2000. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income was $547,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001 compared with $510,000 for the same period in 2000, a 7% increase. Non-interest income was $1,659,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared with $1,661,000 for the same period in 2000, a .1% decrease. The decrease in 2001 income compared with 2000 was primarily the result of non-recurring income realized in the second quarter of 2000 from a stock sale. The stock had been acquired as a result of the demutualization of an insurance company in which the Company held policies. Other increases in non-interest income resulted primarily from an increase in the number of deposit accounts, transaction volumes and directly related service charges. GAIN (LOSSES) ON SECURITIES There were no gains or losses on securities for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2001. Net losses of $3,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 resulted from the sale of several available-for-sale securities. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 was $2,946,000 and $2,294,000, respectively, a 28% increase. Non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 was $8,492,000 and $5,994,000, respectively, a 42% increase. The increase compared with prior reporting periods is primarily due to the Company opening its subsidiary de novo bank, Solano Bank, on July 17, 2000. Salaries and employee benefits expense for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 were $1,671,000 and $1,217,000, respectively, a 37% increase. Salaries and employee benefits expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 were $4,621,000 and $3,239,000, respectively, a 43% increase. The increase in 2001 resulted from 12 increased salaries paid to Company officers and employees, and an increase of approximately twenty-eight full-time equivalent employees from 96 at September, 2000 to 124 at September 30, 2001. The increase in employees is primarily due to growth of the Company. Occupancy expense for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 was $228,000 and $190,000, respectively, a 20% increase. Occupancy expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 was $649,000 and $442,000, respectively, representing a 47% increase. The increase in 2001 is attributed to opening three branch offices of Solano Bank in mid 2000. Equipment expense for the three months ended September 31, 2001 and 2000 was $247,000 and $266,000, respectively, representing a decrease of 7%. Equipment expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 was $795,000 and $614,000, respectively, an increase of 29%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense for new host banking systems and new item processing and imaging systems, as well as, furniture and equipment depreciation expenses of the three new branch offices. Other expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 were $800,000 and $621,000, respectively, a 29% increase. Other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 were $2,427,000 and $1,699,000, respectively, a 43% increase. The increase from last year is primarily due to costs associated with operating six branch offices in 2001 in comparison to three in 2000. INCOME TAXES The Company reported a provision for income tax for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 of $414,000 and $369,000, respectively. The Company reported a provision for income tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 of $1,112,000 and $1,305,000, respectively. Both the 2001 and 2000 provisions reflect tax accruals at maximum rates for both federal and state income taxes, adjusted for the effect of the Company's investments in tax-exempt municipal securities. BALANCE SHEET Total assets as of September 30, 2001 were $313,068,000 compared with $229,917,000 as of September 30, 2000, and $247,469,000 at December 31, 2000 equating to a 36% increase during the twelve months and a 27% increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Total deposits as of September 30, 2001 were $279,326,000 compared with $199,570,000 as of September 30, 2000, and $216,638,000 at December 31, 2000 representing a 40% increase during the twelve months and a 29% increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Loans outstanding as of September 30, 2001 were $185,830,000 compared with $149,671,000 as of September 30, 2000, and $152,276,000 at December 31, 2000 equating to a 24% increase during the twelve months and a 22% increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. BORROWINGS There were no short-term borrowings at September 30, 2001, September 30, 2000 or December 31, 2000. Short-term borrowings would consist primarily of federal funds purchased and borrowings from Federal Home Loan Bank. The Company has a $3,000,000 unsecured loan with Union Bank of California, with a current balance of $2,077,000. The loan will mature in 2003 with principal and interest payments due quarterly. The loan is a variable rate loan tied to Union Bank's reference rate, currently 5.50%. The proceeds of this loan were primarily invested into the Company's subsidiary, Solano Bank. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY The Company's liquidity is determined by the level of assets (such as cash, Federal Funds, and investment in marketable securities) that are readily convertible to cash to meet customer withdrawals and borrowings. Management reviews the Company's liquidity position on a regular basis to ensure that it is adequate to meet projected loan funding and potential withdrawal of deposits. The Company has a comprehensive Asset/Liability Management and Liquidity Policy, which it uses to determine adequate liquidity. As of September 30, 2001 liquid assets were 35% of total assets, compared with 30% as of September 30, 2000 and 34% at December 31, 2000. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA) established ratios used to determine whether a Company is "Well Capitalized," "Adequately Capitalized," "Undercapitalized," 13 "Significantly Undercapitalized," or "Critically Undercapitalized." A Well Capitalized Company has risk-based capital of at least 10%, tier 1 risked-based capital of at least 6%, and a leverage ratio of at least 5%. As of September 30, 2001, the Company's risk-based capital ratio was 12.91%. The Company's tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and leverage ratio were 11.83% and 9.06%, respectively. As the following table indicates, both The Vintage Bank and Solano Bank currently exceed the regulatory capital minimum requirements. The Banks are considered "Well Capitalized" according to regulatory guidelines.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. Although the Company manages other risks, as in credit quality and liquidity risk, in the normal course of business, management considers interest rate risk to be principally a market risk. Other types of market risks, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company's business activities. The majority of the Company's interest rate risk arises from instruments, positions and transactions entered into for the purpose other than trading. They include loans, securities available-for-sale, deposit liabilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Interest rate risk occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times as interest rates change. The Company manages interest rate risk through an Asset Liability Committee (ALCO). The ALCO monitors exposure to interest rate risk on a quarterly basis using both a traditional gap analysis and simulation analysis. Traditional gap analysis identifies short and long-term interest rate positions or exposure. Simulation analysis uses an income simulation approach to measure the change in interest income and expense under rate shock conditions. The model considers the three major factors of (a) volume differences, (b) repricing differences and (c) timing in its income simulation. The model begins by disseminating data into appropriate repricing buckets based on internally supplied algorithms (or overridden by calibration). Next, each major asset and liability type is assigned a "multiplier" or beta to simulate how much that particular balance sheet category type will reprice when interest rates change. The model uses eight asset and liability multipliers consisting of bank-specific or default multipliers. The remaining step is to simulate the timing effect of assets and liabilities by modeling a month-by-month simulation to estimate the change in interest 14 income and expense over the next 12-month period. The results are then expressed as the change in pre-tax net interest income over a 12-month period for +1%, and +2% shocks. Utilizing the simulation model to measure interest rate risk at September 30, 2001 the Company is within the established exposure of a 4% change in "return on equity" tolerance limit. There were no significant changes in interest rate risk from the annual report on form 10KSB for December 31, 2000. Since the beginning of 2001, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has reduced interest rates by 450 basis points. North Bay is slightly asset sensitive, which means that its interest bearing liabilities mature, or otherwise reprice, at a slower rate than its interest earning assets. As a result, in a period of declining interest rates, North Bay will experience a shrinking of its interest margin as its floating rate loans and investments will reprice immediately, while its fixed rate deposits will reprice over the course of a year. This reduction in interest margin may adversely affect North Bay's earnings. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
