See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 5 NORTH COUNTY BANCORP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial information has been prepared in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations for quarterly reporting and therefore does not necessarily include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 1998. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals and provisions, necessary for a fair presentation thereof. NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share (EPS) represents net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period adjusted retroactively for stock dividends. Diluted EPS gives effect to all potential issuances of common stock that would have caused basic EPS to be lower as if the issuance had already occurred. The calculation of diluted EPS assumes the issuance of common stock upon the conversion of stock options of 209,180 and 188,919 shares for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and 206,856 and 189,748 shares for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. 6 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS North County Bancorp (the "Company") has one wholly owned subsidiary, North County Bank (the "Bank"). North County Bank's operations are the only significant operations of the Company. The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. Statements contained in this Report on Form 10-Q that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements regarding the Company's expectations, intentions, beliefs or strategies regarding the future. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to the Company on the date thereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. It is important to note that the Company's actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements include general economic conditions, particularly in the Company's market areas, changes in prevailing interest rates, competitive products and pricing, inflation, credit and other risks of lending and investment activities, fiscal and monetary policies of the U.S. and other governments, regulations affecting financial institutions, and other risks and uncertainties affecting the Company's operations and personnel. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY The Company reported earnings of $2,152,000 or $0.42 per diluted share for the six months ended 1999. This compares with net income of $2,139,000 or $0.42 per diluted share for the same period of 1998. The annualized return on average assets and average stockholders' equity declined to 1.26% and 13.79%, respectively, for the first half of 1999, from 1.48% and 16.20%, respectively, for the corresponding 1998 period. A comparison of second quarter results for 1999 and 1998 indicates a $20,000 decline in earnings to $1,119,000 or $0.22 per diluted share from $1,139,000 or $0.23 per diluted share last year. Second quarter earnings produced annualized return on average assets and average stockholders' equity of 1.31% and 14.07%, respectively, in 1999, compared to 1.55% and 16.91% respectively, in 1998. A decline in the Company's net interest margin, primarily due to lower loan yields, and a lower volume of loan sales in 1999 were primary factors in the slower earnings growth this year and this quarter. These factors were partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan and lease losses due to several elements, including improved asset quality, a lower net charge off ratio, as well as loan growth this year being generated primarily by well collateralized SBA and commercial real estate loans. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income, the principal source of income for the Company, is interest and fees earned on loans and investments less the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Primary factors affecting the level of net interest income include increases or decreases in the average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, increases or decreases in the average rates earned and paid on these assets and liabilities, the Company's ability to manage its earning asset portfolio and the availability of particular sources of funds. The changes in net interest income between the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 are analyzed in Table One. Analysis of the Company's net interest income and average balance sheet levels for the three and six month periods are presented in Tables Two and Three. 7 TABLE ONE - CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) This table sets forth information regarding changes in net interest income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. The changes for each major category of interest income and interest expense are divided between the portion of change attributable to the variance in average balances (volume) or average rates for that category. The amount of change that cannot be separated is allocated to each variance proportionately. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances for these computations. The table is not presented on a tax equivalent basis as the effects are not material.

Net interest income for the first half of 1999 compared to 1998 increased $699,000 or 8% to $10.0 million from $9.3 million. An increase of $47.3 million or 19% in average earning assets and a 11% reduction in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, down 36 basis points, were principal reasons for the increase in net interest income, but were partially offset by a 9%, or 88 basis points, reduction in the yield on earning assets. During the first six months, interest income increased $948,000 or 8% to $13.2 million in 1999 from $12.2 million in 1998. The growth in earning assets was led by loans which increased $22.0 million or 10% to $239.5 million for the first half of 1999 from $217.5 million for the same 1998 period. Interest and fees on loans increased $355,000 or 3% to $11.5 million in 1999 from $11.2 million in 1998. The effect of the increase in loan volume on interest income was partially countered by a decrease in the average yield on loans to 9.72% from 10.37% primarily due to the decline in the prime lending rate during the last half of 1998. The recent increase in the prime lending rate will improve loan yields during the second half of 1999. Deposit growth outpaced loan growth in the last half of 1998, constraining the net yield on earning assets as excess funds were invested in lower yielding short-term investments and Fed funds. Average investment securities and Fed funds sold for the six months of 1999 increased $11.2 million and $13.5 million, respectively, over the first six months of 1998, and contributed $282,000 and $295,000, respectively, to the increase in interest income. The net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets) was 6.69% and 7.37% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Interest expense increased approximately 9% or $249,000 for the first half of 1999 compared to the corresponding period in 1998, mainly due to an increase of $248,000 in interest paid on deposits. Average interest-bearing deposits for the first half of 1999 increased $35.8 million or 21% to $206.3 million at an average rate of 3.05% compared to $170.5 million at an average rate of 3.40% for the same 1998 period. Time deposit interest expense increased $406,000 to $1.7 million in 1999 from $1.3 million last year due to growth of $23.5 million in average balances partially offset by a decline in the average rate paid on these deposits to 4.59% in 1999 from 5.08% in 1998. The decrease in rates paid on deposits is attributable to government easing of short term interest rates and the Company generally lowering interest rates to limit 8 time deposit growth as well as lower the related interest expense. During this same period the average rate paid on savings accounts (including money market accounts) decreased to 2.66% on average balances of $85.8 million in 1999 from an average rate of 3.33% on balances of $78.2 million last year. Interest expense related to savings deposits decreased $156,000 to $1.1 million in the first half of 1999 compared to $1.3 million for the first half of last year. The average rates paid on total interest-bearing liabilities were 3.07% and 3.43% for the first six months of 1999 and 1998, respectively. Net interest income for the second quarter of 1999 increased $228,000 or 5% to $5.1 million from $4.8 million for the second quarter of 1998. Interest income increased $263,000 or 4% to $6.6 million in 1999 from $6.3 million last year. Second quarter average loans increased 9% or $20.8 million to $243.4 million in 1999 from $222.6 million last year, but at significantly lower yields, 9.68% compared to 10.62%, causing loan income to decline $21,000. A recent increase in the prime lending rate should improve the loan yield in the third quarter. Interest income from investment securities and Fed funds sold increased $152,000 and $118,000, respectively, due to volume growth in these categories as the Company continued to channel excess liquidity into short term investments and overnight funds. Second quarter interest expense increased $35,000 or 2% in 1999 due to an increase in average interest-bearing deposits of 18% or $31.8 million to $205.1 million at an average rate of 2.98% in 1999, from $173.3 million at an average rate of 3.44% in 1998. The net interest margin was 6.78% and 7.56% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. 9 TABLE TWO - THREE MONTH ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) This table presents an analysis of net interest income and average balance sheet levels for the second quarter of 1999 and 1998.

The amount of the provision reflects management's judgement as to the adequacy of the reserve for loan and lease losses and is generally determined by the periodic review and assessment of the overall risk in the loan portfolio, the Company's loan loss experience, and current and expected economic conditions. The lower current year provision is based on improvement in the credit quality of the Company's loan portfolio, particularly as related to the Title I loan portfolio, as well as loan growth this year being generated primarily by lower risk, well collateralized SBA and commercial real estate loans. The provision for loan and lease losses during the first half of 1998 reflected a provision of $490,000 compared to $0 in 1999 to supplement the Company's Title I HUD reserve due to potential losses in the Title I portfolio at that time. As presented in Table Four, net charge offs decreased to $229,000 in 1999 from $780,000 for the first six months of 1998. The allowance for loan and lease losses represented 1.40% and 1.48% of total gross loans at June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The provision for loan and lease losses for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $100,000 compared to $450,000 for the second quarter of 1998. The provision for loan and lease losses during the second quarter of 1998 reflected a provision of $150,000 compared to $0 in 1999 to supplement the Company's Title I HUD reserve. Second quarter net charge offs decreased to $157,000 in 1999 from $250,000 in 1998. Loans are charged against the reserve, when in management's opinion, they are deemed uncollectible, although the Bank continues to aggressively pursue collection. Although management believes that the reserve for loan and lease losses is adequate to absorb losses as they arise, there can be no assurance that the Company will not sustain losses in any given period which could be substantial in relation to the size of the reserve. TABLE FOUR - ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) This table summarizes loan balances at the end of each period and daily averages during the period, changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses arising from loan charge-offs and recoveries, additions to the allowance which have been charged to operating expense, and certain ratios relating to the allowance for loan losses.

12 NONINTEREST INCOME A comparison of noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, indicates a decrease of approximately 23% or $852,000 essentially due to a decrease in gain on loan sales of $827,000 for the first half of the year. Title I and equity loans sold totaled $5.9 million for gains of $157,000 for the first half of 1999 compared to $21.8 million sold in the first half of 1998 for total gains of $714,000. The secondary market demand for these loans decelerated in the last half of 1998 and the first half of 1999, and consequently the Company's sales volume has declined. SBA loan sales totaled $2.4 million for gains of $52,000 during 1999 compared to $4.6 million in loan sales for gains of $322,000 in the first half of 1998. Most of the 1999 SBA loan sales ($2.2 million) consisted of long term commercial real estate loans ("504 loans") which generate lower premiums. Management's decision on whether or not to sell SBA loans depends upon, among other factors, loan demand, premium levels and prepayment risk. While the amount of SBA loans expected to be sold during the second half of 1999 is not known at this time, Management does anticipate a higher level of sales than in the first half of the year. Second quarter noninterest income decreased 12% or $219,000 in 1999 compared to 1998 due a decrease of $227,000 in gain on loan sales. NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased 8% or $634,000 compared to the corresponding 1998 period. This category consists of salaries and employee benefits which increased $316,000 to $5.2 million, occupancy expense which increased $294,000 to $1.9 million, telephone expense which increased $151,000 to $368,000, and advertising and other public relations which increased $1,000 to $335,000. The Company incurred approximately $108,000 in noninterest expense during the first half of 1999, from testing and remediation costs associated with the Year 2000 issue (See "Impact of Year 2000"). Decreases in noninterest expense stemmed from branch operational losses less recoveries which decreased $87,000 to a net gain of $1,000 and professional services which decreased $67,000 to $189,000. The Company plans the opening of a new full service branch in Vista, California and the construction of a new facility for its Murrieta branch in the second half of 1999, and may open one or more additional SBA loan production offices in the second half of the year. Second quarter noninterest expense increased 9% or $389,000 in 1999 compared to 1998. IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 Noninterest expense includes the cost of projects to ensure accurate date recognition and data processing with respect to the century date change (commonly referred to as "Y2K"). The Y2K issue confronting the Company, its suppliers, customers, customer's suppliers and competitors centers on the potential inability of computer systems to recognize the year 2000. Some computer systems in use today were designed and developed when computer memory was limited and expensive on early mainframes. As a consequence many programs used only two digits for the year in the date field to conserve memory. As a result, these computer applications could fail completely or create erroneous results by the year 2000 unless corrective measures are taken. To the extent that the problem is not successfully addressed, consequences, the extent of which are unknown, could impact the Company's business, operations, customers and vendors. In accordance with its Year 2000 Project Plan, the Company completed all required testing by June 30, 1999. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had identified critical systems and processes and had completed the testing, validation and remediation of substantially all its critical systems. The Company is also assessing the potential impact of this problem on its suppliers. Vendors upon whom there is significant reliance have been identified and inquiries made regarding their year 2000 readiness plans and status. Appropriate measures to minimize risk will be undertaken with those that appear to pose a significant risk. Replacements may be effected where necessary. However, where no viable alternative for some suppliers, such as power distribution and local telephone companies exist contingency plans are being formulated. As with all financial institutions, a high degree of reliance is placed on the systems of other institutions, including government agencies, to settle transactions. Principal settlement methods associated with major payment systems will be tested as part of their integration with the Company's processing system. The Company is also assessing the potential impact of this problem on its customers. Borrowers, funding sources and large depositors with a significant financial relationship with the Company are being reviewed to assess their Y2K 13 readiness preparation and the risk potential to the Company. Borrowing relationships with credit commitments of $750,000 or more are assigned one of three risk levels based on their level of preparation: low, medium or high. Borrowers in the high risk category will be reassessed quarterly, while borrowers in the medium risk category will be reassessed semiannually. The risk mitigation plan has been incorporated into the normal credit review process. To mitigate the potential loss of large deposits, the Company has reviewed and increased its secondary sources of liquidity. The Company has developed business resumption contingency plans specific to the year 2000 that address the actions that would be taken if critical business functions cannot be carried out in the normal manner upon entering the next century due to system or supplier failure. These plans include but are not limited to manual processing of information for critical information technology systems and having increased cash on hand. The related costs of the Year 2000 Project are expensed as incurred and primarily included in professional services, equipment repairs (a component of occupancy expense) and salary expense. Y2K expenses incurred to date through the end of the first half of 1999 approximate $285,000 ($108,000 in the first six months of 1999) and the total cost of the project is estimated to be approximately $360,000. The Company does not believe that the costs of addressing this problem will have a material effect on the results of its operations. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets of the Company increased $11.6 million or 3% to $349.0 million at June 30, 1999, from $337.4 million at December 31, 1998. During the same period loans increased 7%, Fed funds sold and investments in total decreased 9%, deposits increased 3% and stockholder's equity increased 7%. Gross loans and leases, the Company's primary use of funds, increased $16.3 million to $254.0 million and 73% of total assets compared to $237.7 million and 70% of year end total assets. Encouraged by the expansion of the local real estate markets, loan growth was centered in commercial and commercial real estate loans which increased approximately 9% or $11.3 million and 27% or $14.0 million, respectively. Refinancing activity generated approximately $8.0 million in commercial real estate loans and is not expected to continue at this level in the second half of the year. SBA loans accounted for $7.9 million of the commercial loan growth. These increases were partially offset by consumer loans which decreased 9% or $3.1 million and real estate construction loans which decreased 29% or $5.8 million. The Company continues to experience poor demand for consumer financing primarily due to increased competition from non-bank lenders as well as other financial institutions in its market area. The largest change in the loan portfolio mix was in commercial real estate loans which increased to 26% from 22%, consumer loans which decreased to 12% from 14% and real estate construction loans which decreased to 6% from 8% of total loans. The investment portfolio decreased $6.7 million or 15% to $37.1 in 1999 from $43.8 million at the end of 1998 primarily due to the maturity of short term government agencies. TABLE FIVE - LOAN DISTRIBUTION (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) The following table sets forth the amount of total loans outstanding in each category and the percentage of total loans of each category at the dates indicated.
JUNE 30, 1999 DECEMBER 31, 1998 ----------------- ------------------ BALANCE PERCENT BALANCE PERCENT -------- ------- -------- ------- Commercial loans........................................ $139,649 55% $128,298 54% Commercial real estate loans............................ 65,509 26 51,520 22 Consumer loans.......................................... 31,095 12 34,171 14 Real estate construction loans.......................... 14,149 6 19,881 8 All other loans......................................... 3,577 1 3,832 2 -------- ------- -------- ------- Total gross loans............................ 253,979 100 237,702 100 ======= ====== Less: Allowance for loan and lease losses............... 3,563 3,592 -------- -------- Total net loans.............................. $250,416 $234,110 ======== ========
Total deposits at June 30, 1999 increased $9.5 million or 3% to $312.6 million from $303.1 million at December 31, 1998. 14 As shown in Table Six, the growth in deposits was predominately in interest-bearing accounts which increased $8.1 million or 4%. Demand deposits increased $1.4 million or 2% to $101.9 million in 1999 from $100.5 million at the end of 1998. Within the interest-bearing deposit category, interest-bearing demand accounts grew approximately 7% or $2.8 million to $45.6 million, savings accounts (including money market accounts) increased 13% or $10.2 million to $89.9 million and time deposits decreased 6% or $5.0 million to $75.1 million. The decrease in time deposits is a result of Management's efforts to reduce interest expense by lowering the rates paid on time deposits. The most notable shift in deposit mix was in savings accounts which increased to 29% of total deposits during the first half of 1999 from 26% at year end and in total time deposits which decreased to 24% from 27%. TABLE SIX - DEPOSIT DISTRIBUTION (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) The following table sets forth the amount of total deposits outstanding in each category and the percentage of total deposits of each category at the dates indicated.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS TABLE SEVEN - NONPERFORMING ASSETS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) The following table provides information with respect to the components of the Company's nonperforming assets at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998.
JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31, 1999 1998 -------- ------------ Nonaccrual loans: Residential real estate 60 130 Commercial 2,098 387 Installment and consumer 315 271 ------ ------ Total nonperforming loans 2,473 788 ------ ------ Other real estate owned 94 374 ------ ------ Total nonperforming assets $2,567 $1,162 ====== ====== Nonperforming loans to total gross loans 0.97% 0.33% ====== ===== Nonperforming assets to total gross loans plus other real estate owned 1.01% 0.49% ====== =====
Nonperforming assets increased $1.4 million in the second quarter of 1999 due to an increase of $1.7 million in nonaccrual loans that was attributable to one borrower. Management does not expect any significant losses due to this borrowing which is well collateralized and partially guaranteed by the SBA. Other real estate owned decreased $280,000 to $94,000 during the first six months of 1999 from $374,000 due to the sale of two properties that totaled $306,000 and the addition of one property for $26,000. 15 The Company considers a loan to be nonperforming when any one of the following events occurs: (a) any installment of principal or interest is 90 days past due; (b) the full timely collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain; (c) the loan is classified as "doubtful" by bank examiners; or (d) a portion of its principal balance has been charged-off. The Company's policy is to classify loans which are 90 days past due as nonaccrual loans unless Management determines that the loan is adequately collateralized and in the process of collection or other circumstances exist which would justify the treatment of the loan as fully collectible. ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT LIQUIDITY The liquidity of a banking institution reflects its ability to provide funds to meet customer credit needs, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits, to provide funds for day-to-day operations, and to take advantage of interest rate market opportunities. Asset liquidity is provided by cash, certificates of deposit with other financial institutions, Federal funds sold, investment maturities and sales and loan maturities, repayments and sales. Liquid assets (consisting of cash, Federal funds sold and investment securities) comprised 24% and 26% of the Company's total assets at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. Liquidity management also includes the management of unfunded commitments to make loans and undisbursed amounts under lines of credit. At June 30, 1999, these commitments totaled $50.0 million in commercial loans, $2.0 million in letters of credit, $14.1 million in real estate construction loans, and $12.0 million in consumer loans. In addition to loan and investment sales and deposit growth, the Bank has several secondary sources of liquidity. Many of the Bank's real estate construction loans are originated pursuant to underwriting standards which make them readily marketable to other financial institutions or investors in the secondary market. In addition, in order to meet liquidity needs on a temporary basis, the Bank has unsecured lines of credit in the amount of $20.0 million for the purchase of Federal funds with other financial institutions and may borrow funds at the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve discount window, subject to the Bank's ability to supply collateral. INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT Asset/Liability Management involves minimizing the impact of interest rate changes on the Company's earnings through the management of the amount, composition and repricing periods of rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities. Emphasis is placed on maintaining a rate sensitivity position within the Company's policy guidelines to avoid wide swings in spreads and to minimize risk due to changes in interest rates. At June 30, 1999 approximately 59% of the Company's interest earning assets have interest rates which are tied to the Bank's base lending rate or mature in one year or less. In order to match the rate sensitivity of its assets, the Company's policy is to offer a large number of variable rate deposit products and limit the level of large dollar time deposits with maturities of one year or longer. In addition to managing its asset/liability position, the Company has taken steps to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates by generating non-interest income through service charges, offering products which are not interest rate sensitive, such as escrow services and insurance products, and through the servicing of mortgage loans. Table Eight sets forth the rate-sensitivity of the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of June 30, 1999, the interest rate-sensitivity gap (interest rate-sensitive assets less interest rate-sensitive liabilities), cumulative interest rate-sensitivity gap, the Company's interest rate-sensitivity gap ratio (interest rate-sensitive assets divided by interest rate-sensitive liabilities) and the Company's cumulative interest rate-sensitivity gap ratio. For the purposes of the following table, an asset or liability is considered rate-sensitive within a specified period when it matures or could be repriced within such period in accordance with its contractual terms. Nonaccrual loans of $2.5 million are excluded from the presentation. 16 TABLE EIGHT - INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY GAP (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)

As of June 30, 1999, the Company was liability-sensitive at one year and asset-sensitive beyond one year. Liability sensitive means that rate-sensitive liabilities exceed rate-sensitive assets. This position will generally result in enhanced earnings in a falling interest rate environment and declining earnings in a rising interest rate environment. Asset sensitive means that rate-sensitive assets exceed rate-sensitive liabilities. This position will generally result in enhanced earnings in a rising interest rate environment and declining earnings in a falling interest rate environment because a larger volume of assets than liabilities will reprice. However, this does not necessarily indicate the impact of general interest rate movements on the Company's net interest yield, because the repricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is discretionary and is subject to competition and other pressures. As a result, various assets and liabilities indicated as repricing within the same period may in fact price at different times and at different rate levels. Management attempts to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates in several ways, one of which is to manage its interest rate-sensitivity gap. The use of a base lending rate by the Company for the majority of its floating rate loans also allows the Company more flexibility than the use of a national prime rate in matching changes to the yield on floating rate loans to changes in its funding costs. 17 CAPITAL RESOURCES Stockholders' equity increased 7% to $32.2 million at June 30, 1999 from $30.0 million at December 31, 1998. The increase in equity consists of net income of $2.2 million, an increase of $49,000 from the exercise of stock options, partly offset by a decrease in net unrealized gain (loss) on available for sale securities of $128,000. The following table provides information with respect to the Company's and the Bank's regulatory capital ratios and regulatory minimum requirements: TABLE NINE - CAPITAL RATIOS

Management anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $2.4 million primarily related to construction of a new facility for its existing Murrieta branch scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 1999, and the opening of a full service branch office located at Palomar Airport Road and Business Park Drive in the City of Vista, California. This office, which will be a leased facility, is scheduled to open in the third quarter of 1999. 18 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION All items of Part II other than Items 4 and 6 below are either inapplicable or would be responded to in the negative.
