Our major goals continue as follows: (1) remain independent, (2) grow beyond $500 million in assets within two years, (3) capitalize on opportunities to enter underserved contiguous markets, (4) be the premier financial services provider in markets we serve and (5) skillfully utilize technology for competitive advantage. We believe effective execution of this strategy will provide an excellent return on shareholders' equity and growth in earnings per share that should advance us towards our objective for North Bay Bancorp stock to command a market premium and provide consistent liquidity. Both subsidiary banks exceeded our growth projections for 2001, with a 32% consolidated growth in assets. Our net income of $3,022,166, or $1.46 per share, slightly exceeded our plan. The return on average equity of 10.61% was consistent with our plan, while the return on average assets of 1.0% was slightly below plan due to the growth in deposits outpacing the growth in loans. The third and fourth quarters of 2001 were particularly strong as we were able to realize financial returns from our substantial asset growth. Unlike most of our California community bank peers, our net interest margin did not narrow significantly during the year. This is the result of managing our balance sheet to be as interest rate "neutral" as possible, so that changes in market interest rates do not significantly impact our net income. We believe this is the optimum position to assume for the sake of long-term financial returns. We anticipate strong growth again in 2002, bolstered by the January 2002 openings of The Vintage Bank's St. Helena Office and Solano Bank's Vallejo Office. Returns on average equity and average assets are expected to be slightly better than in 2001, but short of our long-term goal of earning a return on shareholders' equity of 15% or more. Solano Bank is projected to reach break-even operations during the third quarter of 2002. The Vintage Bank is expected to continue its strong earnings through 2002, although the opening of the St. Helena Office (and the associated occupancy and personnel expense) will have a temporary dampening impact on earnings. Additionally, we anticipate some narrowing of our net interest margin during the year, an inevitable result of our current low interest rate environment and intense price competition on loan and deposit rates. We continue to project that year 2003, when Solano Bank will be operating profitably for the entire year, will mark our return to generating financial returns above our peers. During 2003, we anticipate The Vintage Bank's St. Helena expansion will be contributing to profits and the consolidated Company attaining a size that allows us to realize the economies of scale we have sought with our rapid growth strategy. We have continued to build a "foundation" for our planned growth. While we have excellent physical facilities and technology equipment, our success is most dependent on effectively deploying our human capital. We have reached outside our Company to attract people with specific skills and backgrounds while restructuring roles and responsibilities of existing key members of our management team to better capitalize on their strengths. We are evolving into a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) organization, structured to focus our efforts on serving our best and most profitable customers while attracting more customers with similar characteristics. 2 In summary, we remain on course towards the vision initiated in 1999 with the decision to form a holding company for The Vintage Bank and commence organization of a new bank in Solano County. The journey thus far has been both challenging and rewarding. We thank you, our Shareholders, for embracing the vision and supporting our endeavor. We remain convinced this is the optimum strategy to best serve your interests. Very truly yours, Terry L. Robinson Thomas F.

OVERVIEW -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- North Bay Bancorp (Bancorp), organized November 1, 1999, is the holding company for The Vintage Bank and Solano Bank (Banks), which are wholly owned subsidiaries. The consolidated entity (the Company) reported net income of $3,022,166, or $1.46 per share, in 2001 compared with $2,612,585, or $1.33 per share, in 2000 and $2,715,377, or $1.50 per share, in 1999, equating to a return on average assets of 1.00%, 1.17% and 1.44% for years 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The return on average equity was 10.61% in 2001 compared with 11.70% and 15.52% in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in net income during 2000 compared with 1999 resulted primarily from costs associated with opening and operating Solano Bank, which commenced operation in July, 2000. As of December 31, 2001, total assets were $326,805,690 compared with total assets of $247,469,066 and $197,106,319 at year end 2000 and 1999, respectively, representing a 32% increase in 2001 and a 26% increase in 2000. Deposits increased 35% in 2001 compared with a 26% increase in 2000. Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, increased 22% in 2001 compared with a 25% increase in 2000. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY OF EARNINGS Net Interest Income Net interest income before provision for loan losses was $14,420,237, $11,088,108 and $9,324,483 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, representing increases of 30% in 2001 and 19% in 2000. Net interest income is impacted by changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and changes in interest rates. The increase in net interest income in 2001 compared with 2000 was primarily the result of volume increases in loans and investments. The net interest margin (defined as net interest income divided by average earning assets) decreased slightly in 2001 to 5.30% from 5.46% in 2000 as the loan-to-deposit ratio decreased in 2001 compared to 2000. The Company has historically enjoyed an overall cost of funds lower than peer institutions of comparable size. Taxable-equivalent interest income (defined as interest income adjusted for the tax benefit for holding tax exempt securities and loans) increased $3,590,234, or 21%, in 2001 compared with 2000. Increases in the 6 volume of earning assets accounted for increasing interest income by $5,285,413, offset by a decrease of $1,695,179 attributable to lower rates. An increase in taxable-equivalent income of $2,979,385 or 21% in 2000 compared with 1999 consisted of a $2,588,644 increase due to growth of earning assets and an increase of $390,741 attributable to higher rates on earning assets. Interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased $274,821 in 2001 compared with 2000. Increases in the volume of deposits and other borrowings increased interest paid by $1,373,981 offset by a $1,099,160 decrease attributable to a decline in rates. Interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased $1,248,242 in 2000 compared with 1999; the effect of volume increases accounted for $641,073 with an increase of $607,169 attributable to higher rates. The net interest margin, using taxable equivalent interest income, was 5.36% in 2001 compared with 5.55% in 2000. The decrease in the net interest margin is primarily the result of a lower average loan-to-deposit ratio in 2001 compared to 2000 and changes in the market interest rates. Assuming there are no dramatic changes in market interest rates or deposit mix, the net interest margin is expected to decline modestly during 2002, consistent with recent interest rate trends. Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses Credit risk is inherent in the business of lending. As a result, the Company maintains an Allowance for Loan Losses to absorb losses inherent in the Company's loan portfolio. This is maintained through periodic charges to earnings. These charges are shown in the Consolidated Income Statement as provision for loan losses. All specifically identifiable and quantifiable losses are immediately charged off against the allowance. However, for a variety of reasons, not all losses are immediately known to the Company and, of those that are known, the full extent of the loss may not be quantifiable at that point in time. The balance of the Company's Allowance for Loan Losses is meant to be an estimate of these unknown but probable losses inherent in the portfolio. The Company's written lending policies, along with applicable laws and regulations governing the extension of credit, require risk analysis as well as ongoing portfolio and credit management through loan product diversification, lending limits, ongoing credit reviews both internal and external along with approval policies prior to funding of any loan. The Company manages and controls credit risk through diversification, close monitoring of any portfolio concentrations, loan limits to individuals and reviewing historical losses incurred by the Company. Loans that are performing but have shown some signs of weakness are subjected to more stringent reporting and oversight. Management has established a monitoring system for any concentration within the portfolio. Currently monitoring controls are in place for commercial real estate loans. The existing portfolio consists of commercial loans to businesses, both commercial and residential real estate loans and consumer products. The portfolio contains variable rate loans as well as loans with rates fixed for up to ten years. Fixed rate loans primarily are associated with real estate lending. As of December 31, 2001, loans increased $34 million, a 22% increase over that of 2000. On an average balance basis the Company's loan portfolio increased $33 million over the average balance in 2000. In 2000, average balances increased from the prior year by 28% or $30 million. The increase in 2001 was due to strong loan demand for commercial real estate loans along with an aggressive calling program. Management recognizes that the estimation of probable loss in the portfolio is not a science and therefore the current Allowance for Loan Losses is not expected to be equal to the result of the assessment. It is expected, however, that the assessment will demonstrate that the actual reserve is adequate for coverage of probable loan losses in the existing portfolio. To the extent that the current allowance is deemed insufficient to cover the estimate of unidentified losses, Management will record an additional provision for loan loss. If the allowance is greater than appears to be required at that point in time, the provision expense may be adjusted accordingly. Assessment of the Adequacy of the Allowance for Loan Losses and the Allocation Process The Company formally assesses the adequacy of the allowance on a quarterly basis. Determination of the adequacy is based on ongoing assessments of the probable risk in the outstanding loan portfolio and, to a 7 lesser extent, the Company's off balance sheet commitments. These assessments include periodic re-grading of credits based on changes in their individual credit characteristics including delinquency, seasoning, recent financial performance of the borrower, economic factors, changes in the interest rate environment, growth of the portfolio as a whole or by segment and other factors as warranted. Loans are initially graded when originated. They are re-graded as they are renewed, when there is a new loan to the same borrower, when identified facts demonstrate heightened risk of nonpayment or if they become delinquent on a frequent basis. Re-grading of problem loans will occur at least monthly. Confirmation of the quality of the grading process is obtained by independent credit reviews conducted by consultants specifically hired for this purpose and by regulatory examiners. The Company evaluates individual loans that meet the its criteria (loans over $50,000 and graded substandard or lower) to determine if impaired and to establish a specific allowance as necessary. The Company establishes percentage allowance requirements for all other loans, according to their classification as determined by the Bank's internal grading system. These loans are identified through the following categories: Watch - These loans are not classified, but they contain potentially unsatisfactory characteristics. Special Mention - These assets constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a classification to substandard. Substandard - These are loans inadequately protected by current sound worth, paying capacity of the borrower or pledged collateral. Substandard loans normally have one or more well-defined weaknesses that could jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Doubtful - The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the asset, writing down the loan and recognizing the loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. The above, along with specific allocations for concentrations in real estate, off balance sheet, etc., are taken into consideration when evaluating the Company's allowance for loan losses. As of December 31, 2001 the allowance for loan losses of $2,717,249 represented 1.46% of loans outstanding. This compared with an allowance balance of $2,268,048 December 31, 2000, representing 1.49% of loans outstanding. During 2001, 2000 and 1999 $447,000, $385,000 and $240,000, respectively was charged to expense for the provision for loan losses. Non Performing Loans The Company's policy is to place loans on nonaccrual status when, for any reason, principal or interest is past due for ninety days or more unless it is both well secured and in the process of collection. Any interest accrued, but unpaid, is reversed against current income. Thereafter, interest is recognized as income only as it is collected in cash. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000 there were no nonaccrual loans. Historical Loan Loss & Recovery Experience

There have been no transactions in the past year to impact the allocation for loan loss. The increased allocation is due primarily to overall growth in the loan portfolio and related inherent risk of loss. 8 Recoveries for 2001 out paced charged off loans within the portfolio for The Vintage Bank. Solano Bank, as a new company, has sustained no losses since opening for business July 2000. The Company reports minimal historical loss of $103,883 for the year 2000. Conclusion Based on the current conditions of the loan portfolio, Management believes that the $2,717,249 allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2001 is adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the Bank's loan portfolio. No assurance can be given, however, that adverse economic conditions or other circumstances will not result in increased losses in the portfolio. Noninterest Income Noninterest income was $2,690,637 in 2001 compared with $2,140,266 in 2000 and $1,777,144 in 1999. The 26% increase in 2001 was primarily due to realizing net gains on the sale of investment securities. Fee income from service charges on deposit accounts increased 24% or $229,270 from the previous year compared with a decrease of 2% in 2000. The decrease in 2000 was due primarily to a fee "grace period" and waivers associated with a major systems conversion. Noninterest Expense Details of noninterest expense are as follows: (In 000's) 2001 2000 1999 ------- ------ ------ Salaries & benefits $6,349 $4,574 $3,497 Occupancy 854 655 401 Equipment/data processing 1,451 747 463 Other 3,300 2,607 2,135 ------- ------ ------ Total $11,954 $8,583 $6,496 ======= ====== ====== Salaries and benefits expense increased 39% and 31% in 2001 and 2000, respectively, from the previous year. The increases were primarily due to increases in the number of full-time equivalent employees, which has increased from approximately 79 at year-end 1999 to 131 at year-end 2001. The increase was primarily the result of opening Solano Bank and new branches throughout the Company. It is anticipated that full-time equivalents will increase by approximately 5 during the year 2002 due to additional new branch openings. The 30% increase in occupancy expense during 2001 compared with 2000 was primarily in rent and depreciation associated with opening three branches of Solano Bank. Occupancy expense is expected to increase approximately 30% in the year 2002 compared to 2001 due to the anticipated opening of three new offices. Equipment and Data Processing expense increased 94% in 2001 compared with 2000. The increase was primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense resulting from accelerated depreciation on its host banking system in anticipation of a host system change during 2002. Equipment is depreciated over periods of three to five years. Major anticipated capital purchases during 2002 include software for a new host banking system, leasehold improvements to new branch locations, some remodel of existing offices, additional equipment and furniture needed to equip new offices. Expenditures in these areas are anticipated to total approximately $1,750,000. All other anticipated expenditures for equipment during 2002, including routine purchases of vehicles and miscellaneous equipment, are expected to total less than $400,000. The financial impact of these capital expenditures, if all are made, will be to increase monthly depreciation expense by approximately $35,000. 9 The key components of other expenses are as follows: (In 000's) 2001 2000 1999 ------ ------ ------ Professional services $755 $547 $485 Business promotion 379 434 328 ATM expenses 222 167 160 Stationery & supplies 274 259 200 Insurance 111 76 64 Other 1,559 1,124 898 ------ ------ ------ Total $3,300 $2,607 $2,135 ====== ====== ====== Professional services increased 38% in 2001 compared with 13% in 2000; the increase in 2001 was primarily due to increased legal fees associated with purchases of real estate and increases in fees for audits. Business promotion expense decreased 13% in 2001 compared with 2000 and increased 32% when comparing 2000 to 1999; these variations were primarily the result of increased marketing expenditures associated with the opening of Solano Bank in 2000. ATM expense increased 33% in 2001 compared with 2000; the increase is primarily due to an increase in the number of ATM's the Company operates. Stationery and supplies expense increased 6% and 30% in 2001 and 2000, respectively, reflecting overall volume increases and costs associated with the system conversion and opening Solano Bank in July, 2000. Insurance rates increased 46% and 19% in 2001 and 2000, respectively; these increases are consistent with increases in volumes and number of locations. Other expenses increased 39% and 25% in 2001 and 2000, respectively, primarily due to increased expenses in telephone, postage, courier services, conferences and other miscellaneous expenses. The Company reported a provision for income taxes of $1,687,171 $1,647,347 and $1,650,000 for years 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. These provisions reflect accrual for taxes at the applicable rates for Federal and California State income taxes based upon reported pre-tax income, and adjusted for the beneficial effect of the Company's investment in qualified municipal securities. The Company has not been subject to an alternative minimum tax (AMT). BALANCE SHEET -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total assets as of December 31, 2001 were $326,805,690 compared with $247,469,066 and $197,106,319, as of year-end 2000 and 1999, respectively, representing a 32% increase in 2001 and a 26% increase in 2000. Total deposits grew $75,803,334 to $292,441,196 in 2001, representing a 35% increase, compared with a 26% increase in 2000. Total loans, net of allowance for loan losses, grew $33,540,508 to $183,548,301 in 2001, representing a 22% increase compared with a 25% increase in 2000. Investment securities increased from $59,604,457 at year-end 2000 to $86,119,716 in 2001, a 44% increase, compared with an increase of 5% during 2000. Liquidity and Capital Adequacy The Company's liquidity is determined by the level of assets (such as cash, federal funds sold and marketable securities together with other funding sources) that are readily convertible and other funding sources to meet customer withdrawal and borrowing needs. The Company's liquidity position is reviewed by management on a regular basis to verify 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 that it uses to determine adequate liquidity. Securities classified as "Held-to-Maturity" are reported at amortized cost, and "Available-for-Sale" securities are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2001, "Held-to-Maturity" securities had an amortized cost of $1,313,871 and "Available-for-Sale" securities had a fair value of $83,564,595 with an unrealized gain, net of income taxes, of $553,263 reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the shareholders' equity section of the Balance Sheet. The Company owns equity securities carried at a cost of $1,241,250. 10 The Company also has available funding from other sources such as the Federal Home Loan Bank and federal fund lines of credit. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $94 million available from these sources for borrowing. The Company relies on these funding sources to assist in funding loans when loan demand outpaces deposit growth. Additionally the Company has a $1,846,154 unsecured loan which matures October, 2003. The loan is a variable rate loan tied to a reference rate consistent with the prime rate with principal and interest payments due quarterly. At year-end 2001, liquid assets (defined as cash, Federal funds sold, deposits in other financial institutions and securities categorized as available-for-sale) represented 37% of total assets, as compared with 33% as of year-end 2000. The level of liquid assets at December 31, 2001 exceeds the liquidity required by the Company's liquidity policy. Management expects to be able to meet the liquidity needs of the Company during 2002 primarily through balancing loan growth with corresponding increases in deposits. The Company is contemplating issuing trust preferred securities during the year 2002. Issuing these securities, which have both equity and debt characteristics, would increase the Company's liquidity ratios. Other anticipated impacts of a trust preferred issue would be increases in capital ratios and interest expense. The impact on net interest income would depend on the uses for funds from the issue. Possible uses for the funds include equipment purchases, debt retirement, investments, acquisitions, capital injections into subsidiaries, purchase of Company stock or any combination of these alternatives. Interest Rate Sensitivity The following table sets forth the repricing opportunities for rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities at December 31, 2001. Rate sensitivity analysis usually excludes Noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Including these deposits, which totaled $77,117,476, would result in a significant shift in the gap position. Rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities are classified by the earliest possible repricing date or maturity, whichever comes first.

This table indicates that the Company has a "negative" GAP for twelve months into the future and a "positive" GAP beyond. The implication is that during the negative GAP "horizon" Company earnings will increase in a falling interest rate environment, as interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities reprice downward more rapidly than rates on earning assets; conversely, earnings would decline in a rising rate environment. This traditional analysis does not recognize or assume any "lag" in interest rate changes on 11 earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and it assumes that all earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reprice to the same absolute degree regardless of the mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company utilizes a simulation model as its primary tool for asset/liability management. This model considers the effects of lags and different ranges of interest rate changes among various classes of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities following a 1% or 2% change in the Fed Funds rate, and produces a more accurate projection of the impact changing interest rates will have on the Company. Based on the model, the Company is slightly asset sensitive, as opposed to being liability sensitive as indicated by the preceding table using traditional GAP analysis. As of December 31, 2001, the analysis indicates that our net interest income for the next 12 months would increase $76,000 or .53% if rates increase 100 basis points, and decrease $96,000 or .67% if rates decrease100 basis points. The Company's capital ratios remained relatively steady during 2001 compared with 2000 levels. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's total risk-based capital ratio, Tier I risk-based capital ratio and leverage ratio were 13.2%, 12.1% and 9.2%, respectively. These compare with ratios of 14.9%, 13.7% and 10.8% as of December 31, 2000. In January, 2002, the Company declared a 5% stock dividend and a $.20 per share cash dividend for shareholders of record as of March 4, 2002. The stock dividend will affect the Company's capital and its capital ratios only to the extent that cash is distributed in lieu of fractional shares. Accordingly, the stock dividend will not materially impact the Company's overall capital. The cash dividend will total approximately $400,000, equating to a reduction in the Company's leverage ratio of approximately .01%.

The Company's common stock is traded over-the-counter and is quoted on the OTC "Bulletin Board" under the symbol NBAN. The firm of Hoefer & Arnett serves as the primary market maker in the Company's stock. The following table (adjusted for the 2001 and 2002 stock dividends) summarizes the common stock high and low bid prices based upon transactions of which the Company is aware: Quarter ended High Low March 31, 2000 $22.68 $17.23 June 30, 2000 20.64 17.91 September 30, 2000 20.41 18.59 December 31, 2000 19.50 18.59 March 31, 2001 19.95 17.23 June 30, 2001 19.05 18.10 September 30, 2001 19.53 18.10 December 31, 2001 19.52 18.10 There may be other transactions of which the Company is not aware and, accordingly, they are not reflected in the range of actual sales prices stated. Further, quotations reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions. Additionally, since trading in the Company's common stock is limited, the range of prices stated are not necessarily representative of prices that would result from a more active market. The Company paid cash dividends of $0.20 per share in each of the years 2001 and 2000. The holders of common stock of the Company are entitled to receive cash dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. Federal Reserve Board regulations prohibit cash dividends, except under limited circumstances, if the distribution would result in a withdrawal of capital or exceed the Company's net profits then on hand after deducting its losses and bad debts. Furthermore, cash dividends cannot be paid without the prior written approval of the Federal Reserve Board if the total of all dividends declared in one year exceeds the total of net profits for that year plus the preceding two calendar years, less any required transfers to surplus under state or federal law. The shareholders right to receive dividends is also subject to the restrictions set forth in the California General Corporation Law. The Corporation Law provides that a corporation may make a distribution to its shareholders if the corporation's retained earnings equal at least the amount of the proposed distribution. The Corporation Law further provides that, in the event that sufficient retained earnings are not available for the proposed distribution, a corporation may nevertheless make a distribution to its shareholders if it meets two conditions, which generally stated are as follows: (1) The corporation's assets equal at least 1.25 times its liabilities; and (2) the corporation's current assets equal at least its current liabilities or, if the average of the corporation's earnings before taxes on income and before interest expense for the two preceding fiscal years was less than the average of the corporation's interest expense for such fiscal years, then the corporation's current assets must equal at least 1.25 times its current liabilities. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had retained earnings of $7,453,716 eligible for dividends. 13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 31, 2001 and 2000

Bancorp's principal line of business is serving as a holding company for The Vintage Bank and Solano Bank (the Banks), both California state chartered banks. The Banks operate four offices in the California county of Napa and four offices in the California county of Solano. The Banks offer a full range of commercial banking services to individuals and the business and agricultural communities. Most of the Banks' customers are retail customers and small to medium-sized businesses. The consolidated financial statements of Bancorp and the Banks (collectively the Company) are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and general practice within the banking industry. The more significant accounting and reporting policies are discussed below. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bancorp and the Banks. All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent 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 those estimates. Investment securities Investments in debt and equity securities are classified as "held-to-maturity" or "available-for-sale". Investments classified as held-to-maturity are those that the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity and are reported at cost, adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Investments classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses net of related tax, if any, reported as other comprehensive income and are included in shareholders' equity. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related investment security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Dividend and interest incomes are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses are computed on the specific identification method. Securities with unrealized losses judged by the Company to be other than temporary are written down in the period such a determination is made. Loans Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding net of unearned income. Nonrefundable loan origination fees and loan origination costs are deferred and amortized into income over the contractual life of the loan. The majority of the Company's interest income is accrued on a simple interest basis. Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual loans. The Company's policy is to place loans on nonaccrual status when management believes the borrower's financial condition, after giving consideration to economic and business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the presumption of collectibility of interest no longer is prudent. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any accrued and unpaid interest receivable is reversed and charged against current earnings. In determining income recognition on loans, generally no interest is recognized with respect to loans on which a default of interest or principal has occurred for a period of 90 days or more. The Banks define a loan as impaired when it is probable the Banks will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate or based on the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. 18 When the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the impairment is recorded through a valuation allowance. Allowance for loan losses The Banks maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions 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 Banks make credit reviews of the loan portfolio and consider current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, and other factors in determining the adequacy of the allowance. Other real estate owned Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure and is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. Premises and equipment Premises, leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment are carried at cost net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, which are calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the property or the term of the lease (if less). Premises are depreciated over 40 years, furniture and fixtures are depreciated over five to 15 years, and equipment is generally depreciated over three to five years. Income taxes For financial reporting purposes, the Company records a provision for income taxes using the liability method. A deferred tax liability or asset is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Deferred tax expense or benefit results from the net change during the year of the deferred tax assets and liabilities. The measurement of tax assets and liabilities is based on the provisions of enacted tax laws. Statements of cash flows The Company defines cash, due from banks, and federal funds sold as cash and cash equivalents for the statements of cash flows. Stock-based compensation The Company uses the intrinsic value method to account for its stock option plans (in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25). Under this method, compensation expense is recognized for awards of options to purchase shares of common stock to employees under compensatory plans only if the fair market value of the stock at the option grant date (or other measurement date, if later) is greater than the amount the employee must pay to acquire the stock. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", permits companies to continue using the intrinsic-value method to account for stock option plans or adopt a fair value based method. The fair value based method results in recognizing as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. The Company has elected to continue to use the intrinsic value method and the pro forma disclosures required by SFAS 123 using the fair value method are included in Note 15. Earnings per common share Basic Earnings per Share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by weighted average common shares outstanding including the dilutive effects of potential common share (e.g. stock options). Comprehensive income For the Company, comprehensive income includes net income reported on the income statement and changes in the fair value of its available-for-sale investments reported as other comprehensive income. Accounting and reporting changes Financial Accounting Standards Board SFAS No. 133; "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138), established accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statements of financial position and measures those instruments at fair value. 19 Effective July 1, 1999, the Company adopted SFAS 133. The adoption of SFAS 133 did not materially impact the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company does not currently utilize derivative instruments in its operations and does not engage in hedging activities. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 133, and in connection with its adoption, the Company reclassified investment securities carried at $13,506,000 with a fair value of $13,242,000 from the held-to-maturity classification to the available-for-sale classification. As a result of this transfer, an unrealized loss of $154,000, net of tax, was recognized in 1999's other comprehensive income as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. (2) INVESTMENT SECURITIES The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investments in debt and equity securities are summarized in the following tables. Included in the tables are equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values because ownership is restricted and they lack a market.

Short-term borrowings consist primarily of federal funds purchased and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB). The Company maintains a collateralized line of credit with the FHLB. Based on the FHLB stock requirements at December 31, 2001, this line provided for maximum borrowings of approximately $83 million; the Company also has available unused lines of credit totaling $11 million for Federal funds transactions at December 31, 2001. The Company has an unsecured loan with Union Bank of California. The balance at December 31, 2001 was $1,846,154. The loan is a variable rate loan tied to a reference rate consistent with the prime rate which was 4.75% at December 31, 2001. Principal and interest payments are due quarterly on the loan and matures October 3, 2003. (8) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK The Banks make commitments to extend credit in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Banks are exposed to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the borrower, in the contract amount of the commitment. The Banks use the same credit policies in making commitments as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments and evaluate each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Banks, are based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, plant and equipment and real property. The Banks also issue standby letters of credit, which are conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support construction bonds, private borrowing arrangements and similar transactions. Most of these guarantees are short-term commitments expiring in decreasing amounts through 2002 and are not expected to be drawn upon. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Banks hold collateral as deemed necessary, as described above. The contract amounts of commitments not reflected on the Balance Sheet at December 31, 2001 were as follows: Contractual Amounts ------------------- Loan commitments $58,443,000 Standby letters of credit $1,249,000 (9) CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISKS The majority of the Banks' loan activity is with customers located in California, primarily in the counties of Napa and Solano. Although the Banks' have a diversified loan portfolio, a large portion of their loans are for commercial property, and many of the Banks' loans are secured by real estate in Napa and Solano County. Approximately 82% of the loans are secured by real estate. This concentration is presented below: 23 As of December 31, 2001 ----------------- Construction/Land Development: Land development $4,941,336 Residential 5,781,296 Commercial 10,730,786 Real Estate 106,850,930 Commercial loans secured by real estate 7,930,041 Installment loans secured by real estate 17,350,185 ------------ Total $153,584,574 ============ (10) INCOME TAXES The provision (benefit) for federal and state income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 consisted of: 2001 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- ----------- Current Federal $ 1,471,000 $ 1,303,000 $ 1,345,000 State 524,000 515,000 491,000 ----------- ----------- ----------- 1,995,000 1,818,000 1,836,000 Deferred Federal (324,000) (116,000) (164,000) State 16,000 (55,000) (22,000) ----------- ----------- ----------- (308,000) ($ 171,000) ($ 186,000) ----------- ----------- ----------- Total $ 1,687,000 $ 1,647,000 $ 1,650,000 =========== =========== =========== Deferred tax assets and liabilities result from differences in the timing of the recognition of certain income and expense items for tax and financial accounting purposes. The sources of these differences and the amount of each are as follows as of December 31, 2001 and 2000: 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- Deferred Tax Assets: Allowance for loan losses $1,062,000 $ 879,000 Deferred compensation 276,000 0 State income tax 178,000 175,000 Depreciation 44,000 0 Other 0 116,000 ---------- ---------- $1,560,000 $1,170,000 ========== ========== Deferred Tax Liabilities: Unrealized gain on securities $ 394,000 $ 70,000 Accumulated accretion 117,000 63,000 Depreciation 0 265,000 Other 323,000 30,000 ---------- ---------- 834,000 428,000 ---------- ---------- Net Deferred Tax Asset $ 726,000 $ 742,000 ========== ========== The Company had no valuation allowance as of December 31, 2001 or 2000. 24 The total tax differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% because of the following:

(11) DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS The Company is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Federal Reserve Board regulations prohibit cash dividends, except under limited circumstances, if the distribution would result in a withdrawal of capital or exceed the Bancorp's net profits then on hand after deducting its losses and bad debts. Furthermore, cash dividends cannot be paid without the prior written approval of the Federal Reserve Board if the total of all dividends declared in one year exceeds the total of net profits for that year, plus the preceding two calendar years, and less any required transfers to surplus under state or federal law. The shareholders of North Bay Bancorp are entitled to receive dividends when and as declared by its Board of Directors out of funds legally available, subject to the restrictions set forth in the California General Corporation Law. The Corporation Law provides that a corporation may make a distribution to its shareholders if the corporation's retained earnings equal at least the amount of the proposed distribution. The Corporation Law further provides that, in the event that sufficient retained earnings are not available for the proposed distribution, a corporation may nevertheless make a distribution to its shareholders if it meets two conditions, which generally stated are as follows: 1) the corporation's assets equal at least 1.25 times its liabilities; and 2) the corporation's current assets equal at least its current liabilities or, if the average of the corporation's earnings before taxes on income and before interest expense for the two preceding fiscal years was less than the average of the corporation's interest expense for such fiscal years, then the corporation's current assets must equal at least 1.25 times its current liabilities. One of the primary sources of income for the Company, on a stand-alone basis, is the receipt of dividends from the Banks. The availability of dividends from the Banks is limited by various statutes and regulations. California law restricts the amount available for cash dividends by state-chartered banks to the lesser of retained earning or the bank's net income for its last three fiscal years (less any distributions to shareholders made during such period). In the event a bank is unable to pay cash dividends due to insufficient retained earnings or net income for its last three fiscal years, cash dividends may be paid under certain circumstances with the prior approval of the California Department of Financial Institutions (the "DFI"). (12) SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company declared 5% stock dividends on January 27, 1999, January 18, 2000, January 29, 2001 and January 28, 2002. As a result of the stock dividends, the number of common shares outstanding and earnings per share data was adjusted retroactively for all periods presented. In 2001 the effect of 8,092 outstanding options have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. 25 The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator of the Basic and Diluted earnings per share computations:

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively: risk-free interest rate of 4.62% and 3.90% for options issued in 2001, 5.88%, 6.75% and 5.75% for options issued in 2000 and 4.75% and 6% for options issued in 1999; expected dividend yields of 1.01%, .92% and .94%; expected lives of 6 years and expected volatility of 28.02%, 31.05% and 26.32%. The Company accounts for stock options using the intrinsic value method. Had the Company used the fair value based method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share amounts would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below: 2001 2000 1999 ---- ---- ---- Net Income: As reported $3,022,166 $2,612,585 $2,715,377 Pro forma $2,608,691 $2,267,333 $2,558,261 Earnings Per Share: As reported: Basic $1.47 $1.35 $1.54 Diluted $1.46 $1.33 $1.50 Pro forma: Basic $1.27 $1.18 $1.45 Diluted $1.26 $1.16 $1.42 (16) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In the ordinary course of business, the Banks make loans to directors, officers and principal shareholders on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons. An analysis of net loans to related parties for the year ended December 31, 2001 is as follows: Balance at beginning of year $4,062,052 Additions 10,090,599 Repayments 9,545,606 ---------- Balance at end of year $4,607,045 ========== Total undisbursed commitments as of December 31, 2001 were $3,069,810. A law firm in which one of the Company's directors and one of its officers are principals serves as the Company's general counsel. During 2001, 2000 and 1999 fees of $135,000, $80,000 and $58,000, respectively, were paid to this firm. 29 (17) RESTRICTIONS The Banks are required to maintain reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank equal to a percentage of its reservable deposits. Reserve balances that were required by the Federal Reserve Bank were $275,000 and $487,000 for December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and are reported in cash and due from banks on the balance sheet. (18) RETIREMENT PLANS The Company has a Profit Sharing and Salary Deferral 401(K) Plan to enable its employees to share in the Company's profits and to defer receipt of a portion of their salaries. Employees can defer up to 15% of their base pay, up to the maximum amount allowed by the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the Company makes discretionary contributions to the profit sharing account and the 401(K) account, which are determined by the Board of Directors each year. Amounts charged to operating expenses under this plan representing the Company's contribution were $223,200, $160,000 and $159,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During 1998, The Vintage Bank implemented a Director's Supplemental Retirement Program. The Program contains a non-qualified defined benefit plan and a non-qualified defined contribution plan. Directors and select officers designated by the Board of Directors of the Company are covered by one or the other of these plans. The plans are unfunded, however the Bank has purchased life insurance on the lives of the participants and expects to use the cash values of these policies ($2,892,394 at December 31, 2001) to pay the retirement obligations. During 2001, the Company implemented an Executive Officer Supplemental Retirement Plan. The Executive Supplemental Compensation Agreements entered into with select executive officers of the Company pursuant to the Plan provide for a defined cash benefit payable monthly upon retirement upon reaching age 65 (or upon or after age 62 with a reduced benefit). Benefits under these agreements vest over five year periods at the rate of 20% per year after five years' of service with credit for up to five years of prior service. The Plan is unfunded, however the Company has purchased life insurance on the lives of the participants and expects to use the cash values of these policies ($2,843,819 at December 31, 2001) to pay the retirement obligations. The Plan also provides a life insurance benefit to the designated beneficiary of the participants upon their death pursuant to the Executive Officer Endorsement Method Split Dollar Life Insurance component of the Plan. (19) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments at December 31, 2001 and 2000:
Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Amounts Value Amounts Value ------- ----- ------- ----- (In 000's) 2001 2000 ---- ---- Financial Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $37,311 $37,311 $25,356 $25,356 Time deposits with other financial institutions 100 100 100 100 Investment securities 86,120 86,120 59,604 59,604 Loans, net 183,548 185,633 150,008 149,843 Accrued interest receivable 2,015 2,015 1,739 1,739 Financial Liabilities: Deposits 292,441 291,995 216,638 216,523 Short-term borrowings 0 0 0 0 Long-term borrowings 1,846 1,846 2,769 2,769 Accrued interest payable 383 383 118 118
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments: 30 Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents are valued at their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investment Securities - Investment securities are valued at quoted market prices. See Note 2 for further analysis. Loans - Loans with variable interest rates are valued at the current carrying value, because these loans are regularly adjusted to market rates. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of impaired loans is stated net of the related valuation allowance, if any. Accrued interest receivable and payable - The balance approximates its fair value. Deposits, time deposits with other Banks - The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and interest-bearing transaction accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated by discounting the contractual cash flows at current rates offered for similar instruments with the same remaining maturities. Borrowings - The balance approximates its fair value due to the short-term nature of these borrowings and the long-term borrowing has variable interest rate. (20) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The changes in the components of other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 are reported as follows:
2001 2000 1999 -------- ---------- ----------- Unrealized holding gain (loss) arising during the period, net of tax expense of $335,157 for 2001, a tax expense of $891,346 for 2000 and a tax benefit of $1,106,868 for 1999. $661,254 $1,251,380 ($1,396,051) Reclassification adjustment for net realized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale included in net income during the year, net of tax expense of $135,292 for 2001, a tax benefit of $1,054 for 2000 and tax expense of $3,816 for 1999. (190,164) 1,481 (5,364) -------- ---------- ----------- Other comprehensive income (loss) $471,090 $1,252,861 ($1,401,415)
(21) REGULATORY MATTERS The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements. 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 financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's 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 to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2001, that the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. As of December 31, 2001, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank categorized the Company as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Company must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category. 31 The Company's actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the table below:

35 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of North Bay Bancorp: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of North Bay Bancorp (a California Corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. 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. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 consolidated financial position of North Bay Bancorp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
