2 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references in this Form 10-K to "Citizens," the "Company," "our," "us" and "we" refer to Citizens Banking Corporation and its subsidiaries. Our common stock is traded on the National Market tier of the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol "CBCF." Our principal executive offices are located at 328 South Saginaw Street, Flint, Michigan 48502, and our telephone number is (810) 766-7500. We maintain an internet website at www.citizensonline.com where our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports are available without charge, as soon as reasonably practicable after we file each such report with, or furnish it to, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The information in our website does not constitute a part of this Form 10-K. GENERAL Citizens Banking Corporation, incorporated in the State of Michigan in 1980, is a diversified banking and financial services company that is registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. We provide a full range of banking and financial services to individuals and businesses through our Citizens Bank and F&M Bank subsidiaries. We also provide wealth management services through Citizens Bank Wealth Management, N.A., and through affiliate trust departments of F&M Bank - Wisconsin and F&M Bank - Iowa. We operate in the following three major business segments: - Commercial Banking - Commercial Banking provides a full range of credit and related financial services to a wide range of middle-market corporate, small business, government and leasing clients. Products and services offered include commercial loans, commercial mortgages, small business loans, letters of credit, deposit accounts, treasury management and international trade services. We extend credit to clients within the commercial, commercial mortgage, real estate construction and lease financing categories. - Consumer Banking - Consumer Banking includes consumer lending and deposit gathering, electronic banking and residential mortgage loan origination and servicing. This line of business offers a variety of retail financial products and services including deposit accounts, direct and indirect installment loans, debit and credit cards, home equity lines of credit, residential mortgage loans, fixed and variable annuities and ATM network services. Consumer loans are primarily composed of automobile, personal, marine, recreational vehicle, home equity and credit card loans. - Wealth Management - Wealth Management provides services to both our business and consumer clients. Wealth Management focuses on high net-worth customers and offers a broad array of asset management, estate settlement and administration, deposit and credit products. Trust and investment services include personal trust and planning services, investment management services, estate settlement and administration services and investment advisory services for the Golden Oak family of mutual funds, which we distribute through our banking offices. Retirement plan services focus on investment management and fiduciary activities with special emphasis on 401(k) plans. The brokerage and insurance businesses deliver retail mutual funds, other securities, variable and fixed annuities, personal disability and life insurance products and discounted brokerage services. In the fourth quarter of 2003, we announced a major expansion in Oakland County, located in Southeast Michigan, one of the wealthiest counties in the nation. We intend to invest up to $35 to $40 million and to open as many as 10 to 14 new branches, including two hub offices over the next 24 months. This initiative will significantly add to the Bank's current Oakland County presence of six branches and four financial centers and increase staff by up to 180 employees. The first hub office, located in Troy, opened in January 2004. As of December 31, 2003, we had 2,342 full-time equivalent employees and conducted our operations through 176 banking offices, 194 ATM locations and 29 brokerage centers located in Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois. In Michigan, the primary market includes much of the lower peninsula of the state. In Wisconsin, the primary market area is the Fox Valley region, extending from Green Bay to Appleton to Oshkosh, as well as northeastern and southwestern Wisconsin. Other market areas are central Iowa and the western suburban market of Chicago, Illinois. Many of our offices are located in small cities and rural areas that have diverse economies and a mix of manufacturing, service, retailing and agricultural businesses. In many of these localities, we are the largest bank, which we believe to be a competitive advantage. 3 At December 31, 2003 we directly or indirectly owned the following subsidiaries:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Date Principal Number of Assets Acquired/ Subsidiary Office Offices (in millions) Established ------------------------------------- ---------------- --------- ------------- ----------- Citizens Bank (a) Flint, MI 113 $5,476.0 01/01/82 Citizens Bank - Illinois, N.A.

(a) Consolidated totals of the Bank include its non-bank subsidiaries. (b) Citizens Bank Wealth Management conducts business at most Citizens Bank locations and had total assets under administration of $2.866 billion at December 31, 2003. Citizens Bank, our principal bank subsidiary, directly owned the following non-bank subsidiaries: - CB Financial Services, Inc. (100% owned) - a seller of life insurance and annuity products to clients subject to certain restrictions, - Citizens Bank Mortgage Company, LLC (99% owned) - a provider of mortgage financing and servicing to individuals and businesses, - Citizens Title Services, Inc. (100% owned) - an issuer of title insurance to buyers and sellers of residential and commercial mortgage properties including those occurring due to loan refinancing, - Citizens Commercial Leasing Corporation (100% owned) - a participant in high quality indirect lease participations, - Citizens Service Company, Inc (100% owned) - a holding company owning 1% of Citizens Bank Consumer Finance, LLC and 1% of Citizens Bank Mortgage Company, LLC., - Citizens Bank Consumer Finance, LLC (99% owned) - a partnership established to provide indirect consumer lending services to clients in Citizens' markets, and - CB Capital Management, Inc. (100% owned) - a registered broker-dealer for our Golden Oak mutual funds. F&M Bank - Wisconsin directly owned Pulaski Capital Corporation, a wholly owned nonbank subsidiary organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada that holds and manages the majority of F&M Bank - Wisconsin's investment portfolio. F&M Bank - Iowa directly owned Security Bancservices, Inc, a wholly owned non-bank subsidiary that sells property and casualty insurance to clients in the Wisconsin and Iowa markets. Our loan sales and securitization activities are conducted within our subsidiary banks. Our bank in Michigan has been the bank that has coordinated and executed such transactions on behalf of our other subsidiaries. We sell substantially all of the fixed-rate single-family mortgage loans we originate, including adjustable-rate loans that convert to fixed-rate loans. These sales are accomplished through cash sales to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"), Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and other third-party investors, as well as through securitizations with FHLMC and FNMA. In general, mortgage-backed securities ("MBSs") received from FHMLC or FNMA in exchange for fixed-rate mortgage loans are sold immediately in the securities market. From time to time, we also exchange fixed and variable rate mortgage loans held in portfolio for FHLMC or FNMA MBSs backed by the same loans. The resulting MBSs are sold to third party investors or classified as held for sale in our investment security portfolio. If MBSs are retained in the investment portfolio, any gain or loss at time of sale is recorded as a security gain or loss. All other gains or losses associated with sales of single-family mortgage loans are recorded as a component of mortgage banking revenue. Typically, we do not service the loans after they are sold or exchanged, but sell the mortgage servicing rights, in a separate transaction, before or at the time of the securitization. Sales or securitizations of mortgage loans through FHLMC and FNMA are done under terms that do not provide for any material recourse to us by the investor. We do not retain any interest in these securitized mortgage loans. 4 PRINCIPAL SOURCES OF REVENUE The primary source of our revenue is interest income. The table below shows the amount of our total consolidated revenues resulting from interest and fees on loans, interest and dividends on investment securities and other interest and noninterest income for each of the last three years:
Year Ended December 31, ------------------------------ (in thousands) 2003 2002 2001 ----------------------------------------------- -------- -------- -------- Interest and fees on loans $323,739 $385,812 $492,437 Interest and dividends on investment securities 82,133 76,748 79,348 Other interest and noninterest income 94,924 102,600 119,255 -------- -------- -------- Total revenues $500,796 $565,160 $691,040 ======== ======== ========
LINES OF BUSINESS Our performance is monitored by an internal profitability measurement system that provides line of business results and key performance measures. We operate along three major business lines: Commercial Banking, Consumer Banking and Wealth Management. Additional information regarding our business lines is incorporated herein by reference from Exhibit 13 on pages 47 and 48, and on pages 96 through 97 of such document under the captions, "Line of Business Results" and "Note 20. Lines of Business", respectively. COMPETITION The financial services industry is highly competitive. Our banking subsidiaries compete with other commercial banks, many of which are subsidiaries of other bank holding companies, for loans, deposits, trust accounts and other business on the basis of interest rates, fees, convenience and quality of service. Major competitors include banking subsidiaries of Bank One Corporation, Comerica Incorporated, National City Corporation, Fifth Third Bancorp, Marshall and Ilsley Corporation and Associated Banc-Corp, among others. They also actively compete with a variety of other financial service organizations including community banks, savings associations, finance companies, mortgage banking companies, brokerage firms, credit unions and other organizations. The non-banking subsidiaries compete with other companies in related industries including other leasing companies, title insurance companies, mortgage banking companies, insurance companies, consumer finance companies and other organizations. Mergers between financial institutions and the expansion of financial institutions both within and outside of our primary Midwest banking markets have provided significant competitive pressure in those markets. In addition, the passage of Federal interstate banking legislation has expanded the banking market and heightened competitive forces. The effect of this legislation is further discussed under the caption "Supervision and Regulation". Many of our offices are located in small cities and rural areas that have diverse economies and a mix of manufacturing, service, retailing and agricultural businesses. In many of these localities, we are the largest bank, which we believe to be a competitive advantage. In other markets our competitors may enjoy a competitive advantage, including greater financial resources, more aggressive marketing campaigns, better brand recognition and more branch locations. Our competitors may also offer higher interest rates than we do, which could decrease the deposits that we attract or require us to increase our rates or attract new deposits. Other factors such as employee relations and environmental laws also impact our competitiveness. We maintain a favorable relationship with our employees and none of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining group. The impact of environmental laws is further discussed in "Item 3. Legal Proceedings" of this document. 5 SUPERVISION AND REGULATION GENERAL We are a bank holding company registered with the Federal Reserve Board and are subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Bank Holding Company Act"). The Bank Holding Company Act requires the Federal Reserve Board's prior approval of an acquisition of assets or of ownership or control of voting shares of any bank or bank holding company if the acquisition would give us more than 5% of the voting shares of that bank or bank holding company. It also imposes restrictions, summarized below, on the assets or voting shares of non-banking companies that we may acquire. Our subsidiary banks are subject to the provisions of the banking laws of their respective states or the National Bank Act. They are under the supervision of, and are subject to periodic examination by, their respective state banking departments (in the case of state-chartered banks) or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC") (in the case of national banks), and are subject to the rules and regulations of the OCC, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Citizens Bank (our principal bank subsidiary), F&M Bank-Wisconsin and F&M Bank-Iowa are state-chartered banks and are therefore subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Services, the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions and the Iowa Division of Banking, respectively, as well as by the Federal Reserve Board. Citizens Bank-Illinois, N.A., a national bank, and Citizens Bank Wealth Management, N.A., a national non-depository trust bank, are subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the OCC. All of our depository banks are subject to supervision and examination by the FDIC, because the FDIC insures their deposits to the extent provided by law. In addition, all of our banks are members of the Federal Reserve System. Our non-bank subsidiaries are supervised and examined by the Federal Reserve Board and various other federal and state agencies. Consistent with the requirements of the Bank Holding Company Act, our only lines of business consist of providing our customers with banking, trust and other financial services and products. These services include commercial banking through our four subsidiary banks, trust services through Citizens Bank Wealth Management, N.A., mortgage origination and servicing through Citizens Bank Mortgage Company, LLC, equipment leasing through Citizens Commercial Leasing Corporation, brokerage and investment advisory services through CB Capital Management, Inc., property and casualty insurance brokerage services through Security Bancservices, Inc., life insurance and annuity products through CB Financial Services, Inc., title insurance through Citizens Title Services, Inc. and portfolio management services for the majority of F&M Bank - Wisconsin's investment portfolio through Pulaski Capital Corporation. Commercial banking activities account for substantially all of our gross revenues. Regulations governing Citizens and our subsidiary depository institutions restrict extensions of credit by such institutions to Citizens and, with some exceptions, our other affiliates. For these purposes, extensions of credit include loans and advances to and guarantees and letters of credit on behalf of Citizens and such affiliates. These regulations also restrict investments by our depository institution subsidiaries in the stock or other securities of Citizens and the covered affiliates, as well as the acceptance of such stock or other securities as collateral for loans to any borrower, whether or not related to Citizens. Our insured depository institution subsidiaries are subject to comprehensive federal and state regulations dealing with a wide variety of subjects, including capital and reserve requirements, loan limitations, restrictions as to interest rates on loans and deposits, restrictions as to dividend payments, requirements governing the establishment of branches and numerous other aspects of their operations. These regulations generally have been adopted to protect depositors and creditors rather than shareholders or holders of subordinated debt. Information concerning capital adequacy guidelines for Citizens and its banking subsidiaries including our regulatory capital position at December 31, 2003 and maintenance of minimum average reserve balances by the banking subsidiaries with the Federal Reserve Bank are incorporated herein by reference from Exhibit 13 on pages 59 and 62 of such document under the captions, "Capital Resources" and "Liquidity and Debt Capacity," respectively, and pages 98 through 99 of such document under the caption "Note 21 Regulatory Matters." Our insured depository institution subsidiaries are also subject to cross-guaranty liability under federal law. This means that if one FDIC-insured depository institution subsidiary of a multi-institution bank holding company fails or requires FDIC assistance, the FDIC may assess "commonly controlled" depository institutions for the estimated losses suffered by the FDIC. Such liability could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of any assessed subsidiary institution and on Citizens as the common parent. While the FDIC's cross-guaranty claim is generally junior to the claims of depositors, holders of secured liabilities, general creditors and subordinated creditors, it is generally superior to the claims of shareholders and affiliates. 6 Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a bank holding company is expected to serve as a source of financial strength to each of its subsidiary banks and to stand prepared to commit resources to support each of them. There are no specific quantitative rules on the holding company's potential liability. If one of our subsidiary banks were to encounter financial difficulty, the Federal Reserve Board could invoke the doctrine and require a capital contribution from us. In addition, and as a separate legal matter, a holding company is required to guarantee the capital plan of an undercapitalized subsidiary bank. See "FDICIA" below. PAYMENT OF DIVIDENDS There are various statutory restrictions on the ability of our banking subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to Citizens' parent company. Each of our state-charterd banking subsidiaries is subject to dividend limits under the laws of the state in which it is chartered. In addition, all of our subsidiary banks are member banks of the Federal Reserve System, subject to the dividend limits of the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board allows a member bank to make dividends or other capital distributions in an amount not exceeding the current calendar year's net income, plus retained net income of the preceding two years. Distributions in excess of this limit require prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. Federal Reserve Board policy provides that, as a matter of prudent banking, a bank holding company generally should not maintain a rate of cash dividends unless its net income available to common shareholders has been sufficient to fully fund the dividends, and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears to be consistent with the holding company's capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. Dividends from a national banking association may be declared only from the bank's undivided profits, and until the bank's surplus fund equals its common capital, no dividends may be declared unless at least 10% of the bank's net income for a given time period has been carried to the surplus fund, depending on the frequency of dividend payments in a given year. The OCC's approval is required if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year exceeds the sum of the association's net income of that year combined with its retained net income of the preceding two years. In each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, our subsidiaries paid cash dividends to us of $24.0 million, $90.5 million and $107.4 million, respectively. As of January 1, 2004, Citizens' banking subsidiaries are able to distribute dividends of $36.2 million without further regulatory approval. FDICIA The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") requires federal regulators to take prompt corrective action against any undercapitalized institution. FDICIA establishes five capital categories: well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized. "Well capitalized" institutions significantly exceed the required minimum level for each capital measure (currently, risk-based and leverage). "Adequately capitalized" institutions include depository institutions that meet the required minimum level for each capital measure. "Undercapitalized" institutions consist of those that fail to meet the required minimum level for one or more relevant capital measures. "Significantly undercapitalized" characterizes depository institutions with capital levels significantly below the minimum requirements. "Critically undercapitalized" refers to depository institutions with minimal capital and at serious risk for government seizure. Under certain circumstances, a well-capitalized, adequately capitalized or undercapitalized institution may be treated as if the institution were in the next lower capital category. A depository institution is generally prohibited from making capital distributions, including paying dividends, or paying management fees to a holding company if the institution would thereafter be undercapitalized. Institutions that are adequately but not well capitalized cannot accept, renew or rollover brokered deposits except with a waiver from the FDIC and are subject to restrictions on the interest rates that can be paid on such deposits. Undercapitalized institutions may not accept, renew or rollover brokered deposits. The banking regulatory agencies are permitted or, in certain cases, required to take certain actions with respect to institutions falling within one of the three undercapitalized categories. Depending on the level of an institution's capital, the agency's corrective powers include, among other things: - prohibiting the payment of principal and interest on subordinated debt; - prohibiting the holding company from making distributions without prior regulatory approval; - placing limits on asset growth and restrictions on activities; - placing additional restrictions on transactions with affiliates; - restricting the interest rate the institution may pay on deposits; - prohibiting the institution from accepting deposits from correspondent banks; and - in the most severe cases, appointing a conservator or receiver for the institution. 7 A banking institution that is undercapitalized is required to submit a capital restoration plan, and such a plan will not be accepted unless, among other things, the banking institution's holding company guarantees the plan up to a certain specified amount. Any such guarantee from a depository institution's holding company is entitled to a priority of payment in bankruptcy. FDICIA also contains a variety of other provisions that may affect our operations, including reporting requirements, regulatory standards for real estate lending, "truth in savings" provisions, and the requirement that a depository institution give 90 days prior notice to customers and regulatory authorities before closing any branch. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Board categorized Citizens and all of its depository institution subsidiaries as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. FDIC INSURANCE ASSESSMENTS The FDIC's deposit insurance assessments currently are calculated under a risk-based system. The risk-based system places a bank in one of nine risk categories, principally on the basis of its capital level and an evaluation of the bank's risk to the relevant deposit insurance fund, and bases premiums on the probability of loss to the FDIC with respect to each individual bank. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, depository institutions such as our subsidiary banks may not pay interest on indebtedness, if such interest is required to be paid out of net profits, or distribute any of its capital assets while it remains in default on any assessment due to the FDIC. The adjusted assessment rates for FDIC-insured institutions currently range from 0.00% to 0.27% depending on the assessment category into which a bank is placed. We did not pay any regular insurance assessments to the FDIC in 2002. However, beginning July 1, 2003, our Wisconsin bank subsidiary was required to pay an annualized assessment rate of .03% to the FDIC for deposit insurance. We do not expect that any other of our bank subsidiaries will pay significant insurance assessments in 2004. However, the FDIC retains the ability to increase regular insurance assessments and to levy special additional assessments. INTERSTATE BANKING Under the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994, as amended ("Riegle-Neal Act"), a bank holding company may acquire banks in states other than its home state, subject to any state requirement that the bank has been organized and operating for a minimum period of time (not to exceed five years) and the requirement that the bank holding company not control, prior to or following the proposed acquisition, more than 10% of the total amount of deposits of insured depository institutions nationwide or, unless the acquisition is the bank holding company's initial entry into the state, more than 30% of such deposits in the state, or such lesser or greater amount set by the state. The Riegle-Neal Act also authorizes banks to merge across state lines, thereby creating interstate branches. Banks are also permitted to acquire and to establish de novo branches in other states where authorized under the laws of those states. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Transactions between our subsidiary banks and their affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. The affiliates of our banks include Citizens and any entity controlled by Citizens. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B (i) limit the extent to which our subsidiary banks may engage in "covered transactions" with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of our capital stock and surplus, and maintain an aggregate limit on all such transactions with affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of the bank's capital stock and surplus, (ii) require that a bank's extensions of credit to such affiliates be fully collateralized (with 100% to 130% collateral coverage, depending on the type of collateral), (iii) prohibit the bank from purchasing or accepting as collateral from an affiliate any "low quality assets" (including non-performing loans) and (iv) require that all "covered transactions" be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable, to the bank or its subsidiary as those provided to a non-affiliate. The term "covered transaction" includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee and other type of similar transactions. 8 LOANS TO INSIDERS The Federal Reserve Act and related regulations impose specific restrictions on loans to directors, executive officers and principal stockholders of banks. Under Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act and its implementing regulations, loans to a director, an executive officer and to a principal stockholder of a bank, and some affiliated entities of any of the foregoing, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and affiliated entities, the bank's loan-to-one-borrower limit. Loans in the aggregate to insiders and their related interests as a class may not exceed the bank's unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Section 22(h) and its implementing regulations also prohibit loans, above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency, to directors, executive officers and principal stockholders of a bank or bank holding company, and their respective affiliates, unless such loan is approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the bank with any "interested" director not participating in the voting. Section 22(h) generally requires that loans to directors, executive officers and principal stockholders be made on terms and underwriting standards substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons. COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT ACT Under the Community Reinvestment Act and related regulations, depository institutions have an affirmative obligation to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas, including low and moderate income areas, consistent with safe and sound banking practice. The Community Reinvestment Act requires the adoption by each institution of a Community Reinvestment Act statement for each of its market areas describing the depository institution's efforts to assist in its community's credit needs. Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act and are periodically assigned ratings in this regard. Banking regulators consider a depository institution's Community Reinvestment Act rating when reviewing applications to establish new branches, undertake new lines of business, and/or acquire part or all of another depository institution. An unsatisfactory rating can significantly delay or even prohibit regulatory approval of a proposed transaction by a bank holding company or its depository institution subsidiary. FAIR LENDING AND CONSUMER LAWS In addition to the Community Reinvestment Act, other federal and state laws regulate various lending and consumer aspects of the banking business. Governmental agencies, including the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice, have become concerned that in some cases prospective borrowers experience unlawful discrimination in their efforts to obtain loans from depository and other lending institutions. These agencies have brought litigation against some depository institutions alleging discrimination against borrowers. Many of these suits have been settled, in some cases for material sums, short of a full trial. Recently, these governmental agencies have clarified what they consider to be lending discrimination and have specified various factors that they will use to determine the existence of lending discrimination under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act. These factors include evidence that a lender discriminated on a prohibited basis, evidence that a lender treated applicants differently based on prohibited factors in the absence of evidence that the treatment was the result of prejudice or a conscious intention to discriminate, and evidence that a lender applied an otherwise neutral non-discriminatory policy uniformly to all applicants, but the practice had a discriminatory effect, unless the practice could be justified as a business necessity. Banks and other depository institutions also are subject to numerous consumer-oriented laws and regulations. These laws, which include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the Fair Housing Act, require compliance by depository institutions with various disclosure requirements and requirements regulating the availability of funds after deposit or the making of certain loans to customers. GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY ACT OF 1999 The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "GLBA") was signed into law on November 12, 1999. The GLBA covers a broad range of issues, including a repeal of most of the restrictions on affiliations among depository institutions, securities firms and insurance companies. The following description summarizes some of its significant provisions. The GLBA repeals sections 20 and 32 of the Glass-Steagall Act, thus permitting unrestricted affiliations between banks and securities firms. It also permits bank holding companies to elect to become financial holding companies. A financial holding company may engage in or acquire companies that engage in a broad range of financial services, including securities activities such as underwriting, dealing, investment, merchant banking, insurance underwriting, sales and brokerage activities. In order to become a financial holding company, the bank holding company and all of its affiliated depository institutions must be well-capitalized, well-managed and have at least a satisfactory Community Reinvestment Act rating. We have determined not to become certified as a financial holding company at this time. We may reconsider this determination 9 in the future. The GLBA provides that the states continue to have the authority to regulate insurance activities, but prohibits the states in most instances from preventing or significantly interfering with the ability of a bank, directly or through an affiliate, to engage in insurance sales, solicitations or cross-marketing activities. Although the states generally must regulate bank insurance activities in a nondiscriminatory manner, the states may continue to adopt and enforce rules that specifically regulate bank insurance activities in specific areas identified under the law. Under the new law, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted insurance consumer protection regulations that apply to sales practices, solicitations, advertising and disclosures. The GLBA repeals the broad exemption of banks from the definitions of "broker" and "dealer" for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. It also identifies a set of specific activities, including traditional bank trust and fiduciary activities, in which a bank may engage without being deemed a "broker," and a set of activities in which a bank may engage without being deemed a "dealer." Additionally, the new law makes conforming changes in the definitions of "broker" and "dealer" for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The GLBA also contains extensive customer privacy protection provisions. Under these provisions, a financial institution must provide to its customers, both at the inception of the customer relationship and on an annual basis, the institution's policies and procedures regarding the handling of customers' nonpublic personal financial information. The new law provides that, except for specific limited exceptions, an institution may not provide such personal information to unaffiliated third parties unless the institution discloses to the customer that such information may be so provided and the customer is given the opportunity to "opt out" of such disclosure. An institution may not disclose to a non-affiliated third party, other than to a consumer reporting agency, customer account numbers or other similar account identifiers for marketing purposes. The GLBA also provides that the states may adopt customer privacy protections that are more strict than those contained in the GLBA. INTERNATIONAL MONEY LAUNDERING ABATEMENT AND FINANCIAL ANTI-TERRORISM ACT OF 2001 The International Money Laundering Abatement and Financial Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 (the "IMLAFA") was signed into law in October 2001 as part of the USA Patriot Act of 2001. The IMLAFA substantially broadens existing anti-money laundering legislation, imposes new compliance and due diligence obligations, creates new crimes and penalties, and compels the production of documents located both inside and outside the United States. The U.S. Treasury Department has issued a number of regulations implementing the IMLAFA that apply certain of its requirements to financial institutions such as our banking subsidiaries. The regulations impose new obligations on financial institutions to maintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing. The Treasury Department is expected to issue a number of additional regulations which will further clarify the IMLAFA's requirements. Pursuant to the IMLAFA and the regulations promulgated under it, we have established anti-money laundering compliance and due diligence programs which include, among other things, the designation of a compliance officer, employee training programs, and an independent audit function to review and test the program. FUTURE LEGISLATION Because federal and state regulation of financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant legislative debate, we cannot forecast how federal and state regulation of financial institutions may change in the future and impact our operations. Although Congress in recent years has sought to reduce the regulatory burden on financial institutions with respect to the approval of specific transactions, we fully expect that the financial services industry will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating specific banking practices. ECONOMIC FACTORS AND MONETARY POLICY Our earnings and business are affected by the general economic and political conditions in the United States and abroad and by the monetary and fiscal policies of various federal regulatory authorities, including the Federal Reserve System. Through open market securities transactions, variations in the Federal Funds rate and the establishment of reserve requirements, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System exerts considerable influence on interest rates and the supply of money and credit. The effect of fluctuating economic conditions and federal regulatory policies on our future profitability cannot be predicted with any certainty. The effect of the economy and changes in interest rates on our net interest margin and net interest income in 2003 and 2002 and their potential effect on future periods is discussed in Exhibit 13 on pages 41 through 43 under the caption "Net Interest Income" and is incorporated herein by reference. Our sensitivity to changes in interest 10 rates and the potential affect of changes in interest rates on net interest income is presented in Exhibit 13 on pages 63 through 64 under the captions "Interest Rate Risk" and "Interest Rate Sensitivity" and is incorporated herein by reference. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Our primary exposure to environmental risk is through our trust services and our lending activities. In each instance, we have policies and procedures in place to mitigate our environmental risk exposures. With respect to lending activities, we require environmental site assessments at the time of loan origination to confirm collateral quality on commercial real estate parcels posing higher than normal potential for environmental impact, as determined by reference to present and past uses of the subject property and adjacent sites. Environmental assessments are also mandated prior to any foreclosure activity involving non-residential real estate collateral. In the case of trust services, we utilize various types of environmental transaction screening to identify actual and potential risks arising from any proposed holding of non-residential real estate for trust accounts. Consequently we do not anticipate any material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position of Citizens or any of our subsidiaries with regard to compliance with federal, state or local environmental protection laws or regulations. Additional information is provided in "Item 3. Legal Proceedings." ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Our executive offices are located at 328 South Saginaw Street, Flint, Michigan in the main office building of Citizens Bank, our largest bank subsidiary. Our bank subsidiaries operate through 176 branch and financial banking offices. Of these, 41 are leased and the remainder are owned and not subject to any material liens. Rent expense on the leased properties totaled $2,122,728 in 2003. The banking offices are located in various communities throughout the states of Michigan and Wisconsin, in parts of Iowa and in the western suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. At certain Citizens Bank locations a portion of the office buildings are leased to tenants. Additional information related to the property and equipment owned or leased by Citizens and its subsidiaries is incorporated herein by reference from Exhibit 13 on page 81 under the caption "Note 9. Premises and Equipment" of such document. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Citizens and its subsidiaries are parties to a number of lawsuits incidental to its business. Although litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the ultimate exposure with respect to many of these matters cannot be ascertained, we do not believe the ultimate outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or liquidity. From time to time, certain of our subsidiaries are notified by applicable environmental regulatory agencies, pursuant to State or Federal environmental statutes or regulations, that they may be potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") for environmental contamination on or emanating from properties currently or formerly owned. Typically, exact costs of remediating the contamination cannot be fully determined at the time of initial notification. While, as PRPs, these subsidiaries are potentially liable for the costs of remediation, in most cases, a number of other PRPs have been identified as being jointly and severally liable for remediation costs. Additionally, in certain cases, statutory defenses to liability for remediation costs may be asserted based on the subsidiaries' status as lending institutions that acquired ownership of the contaminated property through foreclosure. We are not presently aware of any environmental liabilities that pose a reasonable possibility of future material impact on Citizens or its earnings. It is our policy to establish and accrue appropriate reserves for all such identified exposures during the accounting period in which a loss is deemed to be probable and the amount is determinable. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted during the fourth quarter of 2003 to a vote of security holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise. 11 PART II ITEM 5.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION We have two stock option plans pursuant to which we grant performance-based stock options to employees, officers and directors. Our Stock Compensation Plan (the "2002 Plan") was approved by our shareholders in 2002. Our All-Employee Stock Option Plan (the "All-Employee Plan") was not submitted to our shareholders for approval. The 2002 Plan replaced our Third Amended Stock Option Plan which has expired and our Stock Option Plan for Directors which was terminated. Both of these plans were approved by our shareholders and there continue to be options outstanding that were granted under these plans. The following table sets forth, with respect to all of our option plans, (i) the number of shares of common stock to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding options, (ii) the weighted average exercise price of outstanding options, and (iii) the number of shares remaining available for future issuance, as of December 31, 2003.

(1) Does not include options for 28,895 shares of our common stock that are outstanding as the result of our assuming obligations under stock option plans of F&M Bancorporation, Inc. ("F&M") in connection with our merger with F&M in 1999. While we assumed the obligations existing under these plans as of the time of the merger, we have not used them to make any further grants. The weighted-average exercise price of these outstanding options is $23.68. (2) Issued under the All-Employee Plan. Under this plan, on May 18, 2000, we granted stock options to all employees who did not receive grants under the then existing but since expired Third Amended Stock Option Plan. Each full-time employee received options for 200 shares of our common stock and each part-time employee received options for 100 shares. The $16.66 exercise price of the grant was the market price of our common stock on the grant date. The options became exercisable three years after the date of grant. The options expire ten years from the date of grant. Options for a total of 550,700 shares were granted of which options for 164,050 shares were outstanding as of December 31, 2003. The plan provides that no further grants may be made under the plan. 12 ITEM 6.
