FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this Report that are not historical facts or that discuss our expectations or beliefs or our views regarding our future operations or future financial performance, or financial or other trends in our business, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Often, they include the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” The expectations or beliefs discussed in forward-looking statements are based on current information and the outcome of those matters are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our financial condition or operating results in the future to differ, possibly significantly, from those expected at the current time. Those risks and uncertainties are described in Item 1A of Part I of this Report in the Section entitled “Risk Factors” and readers of this Report are urged to read the risk factors and cautionary statements contained in that Section of this Report.

Due to these uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this Report, which speak only as of the date of this Report. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

Foothill Independent Bancorp (the “Foothill” or the “Company”), which was organized in 1982, is a one-bank holding company that is registered, as such, under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”). Like other bank holding companies in the United States, we are subject to regulation, supervision and periodic examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (commonly known as the “Federal Reserve Board”). We own all of the capital stock of Foothill Independent Bank, a California state-chartered bank (the “Bank”), which is our principal subsidiary and accounts for substantially all of our consolidated assets, liabilities and operating results.

The Bank, which was organized and commenced business operations in 1973, conducts a commercial banking business in the contiguous counties of Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Riverside, California, and as of December 31, 2005 had total assets of $799,000,000. The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the Bank is a California state chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve System. As a member of the Federal Reserve System and a California state chartered bank, the Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board, which is its principal federal regulatory agency, and by the California Department of Financial Institutions (the DFI). See “Supervision and Regulation” below in this Section of this Report.

Recent Development – Proposed Merger of Foothill with and into First Community Bancorp

On December 14, 2005, Foothill and First Community Bancorp (“First Community’) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Foothill will be acquired by and merged into First Community and Foothill’s stockholders will become shareholders of First Community. First Community is a bank holding company that, through two banking subsidiaries, owns and operates a total of 48 commercial banking offices located throughout Southern California and which had, as of December 31, 2005, total consolidated assets of approximately $3.2 billion, total consolidated loans, net of deferred fees, of approximately $2.5 billion, total consolidated deposits of approximately $2.4 billion and total consolidated shareholders’ equity of approximately $501 million.

The Merger Agreement provides for a merger of the Company with and into First Community (the “Merger”), in which:

• First Community will be the surviving corporation and the Company shall cease to exist; and

• Foothill’s stockholders will become shareholders of First Community and will receive a number, ranging from between approximately 0.4428 to 0.5685, of a share of First Community common stock, for each of their Foothill shares, with the exact number of First Community shares within that range to be determined on the

1

basis of the average closing price of First Community’s shares for the 15 trading days ending two trading days prior to the consummation of the merger.

Assuming the merger was consummated on March 16, 2006, then, based on the average per share closing price of First Community’s shares for the 15 trading days ended March 14, 2006, which was $60.15, and the 8,716,957 shares of Foothill common stock outstanding on that date, Foothill’s stockholders would have received 0.4428 of a share of First Community common stock for each of the their Foothill shares.

The completion of the merger depends on a number of conditions being met. Those conditions, among others, include: (i) approval of the merger by Foothill’s stockholders and by First Community’s shareholders; (ii) the receipt of required regulatory approvals without the imposition of materially adverse or harmful restrictions or conditions; (iii) receipt of consents from certain third parties under contracts to which Foothill or the Bank is a party; and (iv) Foothill having an adjusted total stockholders’ equity and allowance for loan losses of not less than a combined $72.7 million as of the last business day of the last month before closing of the merger. As of December 31, 2005, the sum of Foothill’s stockholders’ equity and allowance for loan losses totaled approximately $75.3 million. Assuming the conditions to the merger are met without any unanticipated delays, it is currently expected that the merger will be consummated in the second quarter of 2006.

Foothill has scheduled a special meeting of its stockholders, to be held at 10:00 A.M. on April 19, 2006, at the Shilo Hilltop Suites, 3101 W. Temple Avenue, Pomona, California, at which the proposed merger will be voted on by its stockholders. A Joint Proxy Statement – Prospectus that describes the Merger and provides information relating to First Community Bancorp and Foothill will be mailed to Foothill’s stockholders beginning on or about March 20, 2006.

Foothill’s Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Merger and recommends that Foothill’s stockholders vote to adopt the Merger Agreement.

Foothill’s Business and Operations

Foothill Independent Bank offers a full range of commercial banking services including the acceptance of checking and savings deposits, and the making of various types of commercial and business loans, including credit lines and accounts receivable and inventory financing, real estate mortgage and construction loans and consumer installment loans. In addition, the Bank provides safe deposit, collection, travelers’ checks, notary public and other customary non-deposit banking services. The Bank currently operates 12 banking offices, one in each of the communities of Glendora, Upland, Claremont, Irwindale, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, Covina, Glendale, Corona, Chino, Monrovia, and Temecula California, which are located in the area of Southern California that includes (i) the San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles County, (ii) the western portions of San Bernardino County, and (iii) the western and southern portions of Riverside County, which together are commonly known as the “Inland Empire.” The Bank’s organization and operations have been designed primarily to meet the banking needs of small-to-medium sized businesses, professionals and consumers, primarily in its market areas.

The Bank emphasizes personalized service, convenience and the ability to customize services to meet the banking needs of its customers in order to attract business within its market areas. Drive-up or walk-up facilities and 24-hour automated teller machines (“ATM’s”) are available at most of its banking offices. The Bank also offers internet banking services to its customers, enabling them to conduct many of their banking transactions with us online, from their businesses or residences, 24 hours per day, seven days per week; and a computerized telephone service, which enables customers to obtain information concerning their bank deposit accounts telephonically at any time day or night.

Consolidated Average Assets and Liabilities. The following table sets forth the average balances for each principal category of our consolidated assets and liabilities, and also of our stockholders’ equity, for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2005. Average balances are based on daily averages for the Bank and monthly averages for the Company, since the Company does not maintain daily average information. We believe that the differences between monthly and daily average data (where monthly data have been used) are not significant. (Dollars are set forth in thousands.)

Deposits. Deposits represent the Bank’s primary source of funds that it uses to fund its interest-earning assets, principally loans and investment securities. The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2005, the different categories of deposits maintained at the Bank and the number of deposit accounts, the average balance of each account and the aggregate dollar amount of the deposits in each such category:

	At December 31, 2005
	Number of Accounts	Average Account Balance		Total Deposits
	(Dollars in thousands)
Demand (checking) accounts	27,463	$	13,510	$	371,031	(1)

Savings accounts	9,279		7,400		68,663

In denominations of more than $100,000	134		206,448		27,664
Other time deposits	1,401		23,064		32,312

⁽¹⁾ Includes $13,472,000 of municipal and other government agency deposits.

⁽²⁾ Includes $333,000 of municipal and other government agency deposits.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, average non-interest bearing demand deposits increased by $29.8 million, or 12.0%; average money market checking account deposits increased by $2.8 million, or 1.5%; average savings deposits increased by $7.1 million, or 4.3%; and average time deposits decreased by $1.6 million, or 2.3%, which was attributable to a decrease of $8.1 million in other time deposits, partially offset by an increase of $6.4 million in time deposits in denominations exceeding $100,000.

Although there are some business and public agency customers that carry large deposits with the Bank, we do not believe that the Bank is dependent on a single customer or even a few customers for its deposits. Most of the Bank’s deposits are obtained from individuals and small and moderate-size businesses. This results in relatively small average deposit balances, but makes the Bank less subject to the adverse effect on liquidity that can result from the loss of a substantial depositor. At December 31, 2005, no individual, corporate or public agency depositor accounted for more than 4% of the Bank’s total deposits and the five largest deposit accounts represented, collectively, 11% of total deposits.

Loans. We offer a diverse line of loan products, including commercial loans and credit lines, SBA guaranteed business loans, accounts receivable and inventory financing, real estate mortgage and construction loans and consumer loans. All of our outstanding loans have been made to borrowers in the United States. The following table sets forth the types, and the amounts (in thousands of dollars), by type, of the loans that were outstanding at December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

Total	$	547,425		$	500,607		$	455,101

⁽¹⁾ A portion of these loans were made, not for the purpose of financing real properties, but for commercial or agricultural purposes. However, in accordance with the Bank’s credit policies, such loans were secured by deeds of trust on real properties and, therefore, are classified as real estate mortgage loans.

⁽²⁾ Lease financing amounts are stated net of unearned income of $13 for 2005; $33 for 2004; and $69 for 2003.

Except for the categories of loans set forth in the table above, at December 31, 2005 there were no loans outstanding to borrowers engaged in similar businesses activities that aggregated more than 10% of our loan portfolio.

Commercial Loans. The commercial loans we offer include:

• secured and unsecured loans with maturities ranging from 12 to 120 months;

• SBA guaranteed business loans with terms not to exceed 10 years; and

• accounts receivable financing for terms not exceeding 12 months.

In order to mitigate the risk of borrower defaults, we generally require collateral to support the credit or personal guarantees from the borrower’s owners, or both. In addition, all loans must have well-defined primary and secondary sources of repayment. Generally, lines of credit are granted for no more than a 12-month period and are subject to frequent periodic reviews.

We also offer asset-based lending products that involve a higher degree of risk than other types of commercial loans, because asset-based loans are designed for those borrowers who do not generate cash flow from their operations that is sufficient to enable them to qualify, under our credit underwriting criteria, for unsecured loans. These borrowers generally consist of businesses that are growing rapidly, but cannot internally fund their growth without borrowings. Usually, the collateral for such loans consists of accounts receivable and inventory. We mitigate our risk by requiring loan-to-value ratios of not more than 80% and by regularly monitoring the amount and value of the collateral in order to maintain that ratio. These loans often are supported by additional collateral, usually in the form of first or second mortgages or deeds of trust on real property.

Commercial loans, including accounts receivable financing, are generally made to businesses that have been in operation for at least three years. In addition, to qualify for these loans, a borrower usually is required to have a debt-to-net worth ratio of not more than four-to-one; operating cash flow sufficient to demonstrate the ability to pay obligations as they become due; and a good payment history.

Real Estate Loans. Nonresidential real estate loans make up approximately 90% of our real estate loan portfolio, and substantially all of those loans are secured by first mortgages or deeds of trust. The remainder of our real estate loans are secured by first and second deeds of trust on residential real property.

Loans secured by nonresidential real estate often involve loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers, and generally involve a greater risk of nonpayment than do mortgage loans secured by single and multi-family dwellings. Payments on loans secured by nonresidential real estate depend to a large degree on the results of operations and dependable cash flows generated by the businesses of the borrowers or tenants at the property. As a result, repayment of these loans is affected by changes in economic conditions in general or by the real estate market more specifically. Accordingly, the nature of this type of loan makes it more difficult to monitor and evaluate. Consequently, personal guarantees from the owners of the borrowers are typically required as security for the repayment of such loans.

A customer seeking to obtain a commercial real estate loan must have a good payment record and the real property that will secure the loan must generate sufficient cash flow to cover the debt service of the loan by at least 1.25-to-1 (debt coverage ratio). If the property is owner-occupied, the owner’s business generally must have a debt coverage ratio of at least 1.50-to-1. In addition, we require insurance on the property adequate to protect the collateral value. Generally, these types of loans are written for maximum terms of 10 years with loan-to-value ratios of not more than 70%.

Consumer Loans. We offer a wide variety of loan and credit products to consumers that include personal installment loans, lines of credit and credit cards. We design these products to meet the needs of our customers and some are made at fixed rates of interest and others at adjustable rates. Consumer loans often entail greater risk than real estate mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles, which may not provide an adequate source of loan repayment in the event of a default by the borrower. As a result, consumer loan collections are dependent on borrowers’ ongoing financial stability. Furthermore, bankruptcy and insolvency laws may limit the amount that can be recovered on such loans. We require the borrower to have a good payment record and, typically, a debt-to-asset ratio of not more than 45%.

Past Due, Restructured and Non-Accrual Loans. The risk that borrowers will fail or be unable to repay their loans is an inherent part of the banking business. We follow the practice of specifically identifying loans that have become past

5

due, either as to interest or principal, for more than 90 days. Such loans are given special attention by our credit officers and additional efforts are made to get the borrowers to bring their loans current or to provide additional collateral to reduce the risk of potential losses on those loans. Additionally, we sometimes renegotiate the payment terms of loans to permit the borrower to defer interest or principal payments in those instances where it appears that the borrower is encountering temporary or short-term financial difficulties and we believe the deferral will reduce the likelihood of an eventual loss on the loan. When we have reason to believe that continued payment of interest and principal on any loan is unlikely, the loan is placed on non-accrual status (that is, accrual of interest on the loan is discontinued and any previously accrued but unpaid interest on the loan is reversed and, therefore, the loan ceases to be an earning asset for the Bank) and we increase our efforts to recover the amounts due us, which may include the initiation of foreclosure proceedings against the collateral securing the loan.

The following table sets forth, as of the end of each of the years in the five year period ended December 31, 2005, the amounts (in thousands of dollars) of our loans, by type, (i) that were more than 90 days past due, (ii) as to which the terms of payment had been renegotiated (referred to as “troubled debt restructurings”), or (iii) that had been placed on non-accrual status.

⁽¹⁾ Reflects loans for which there has been no payment of interest and/or principal for 90 days or more.

⁽²⁾ The terms of the restructured loans did not involve any interest deferrals, and the amounts of interest collected in 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, and 2001, were those required to have been paid in accordance with the original terms of those loans.

⁽³⁾ There was one loan on non-accrual status at each of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, three loans at December 31, 2003, four loans at December 31, 2002, and six loans at each of December 31, 2001. The interest income that would have been collected on these loans had they remained current in accordance with their original terms were $0 in each of 2005 and 2004, $90,000 in 2003, $117,000 in 2002 and $197,000 in 2001.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards N. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan” (SFAS 114”), as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan—Income Recognition and Disclosures” (“SFAS 118”), we consider a loan to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, we believe it is probable that we will be unable to collect the entire amount due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In determining impairment, we primarily evaluate those loans, both performing and non-performing, that are large non-homogenous loans in our commercial and real estate mortgage and construction loan portfolios which exhibit, among other characteristics, high loan-to-value ratios, low debt-coverage ratios, or other indications that the borrowers are experiencing increased financial difficulties. In general, payment delays of less than 90 days or payment shortfalls of less than 1% are deemed insignificant and, for that reason, would not necessarily result in the classification of such loans as impaired. However, we consider all non-accrual and troubled debt restructured loans to be impaired. Smaller balance, homogenous loans, which consist primarily of consumer installment, credit card and direct lease financing, are not considered in determining loan impairment.

A loan identified as impaired is placed on non-accrual status and is evaluated at that time and regularly thereafter to determine whether the carrying value of the loan should be written off in its entirety, as a loss, or partially written-down to what is believed to be its recoverable value, or whether the terms of the loan, including the collateral required to secure the loan, should renegotiated with the borrower. Impaired loans are written off or written down when the possibility of collecting the full balance of the loan becomes remote. The average balances of impaired loans in our loan portfolio totaled approximately $458,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, down from $641,000 for fiscal 2004. During 2005, cash receipts totaling approximately $280,000 were applied to reduce the principal balances of, and $11,000 of interest income was recognized on, impaired loans and we set aside reserves for possible losses specifically on those loans of approximately $4,000, as compared to $27,000 during 2004. Additional information regarding the Bank’s loan loss reserve

is set forth below in this Section of this Report under the caption, “The Reserve for Loan Losses.” Additional information regarding SFAS 114, is contained in Note 5 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements that are set forth in Part II, Item 8 of this Report.

Other Potential Problem Loans or Assets. At December 31, 2005, there were no loans in our loan portfolio as to which there were serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with then present loan repayment terms as to which we had not ceased accruing interest and there were no other interest-earning assets as to which we believe the recovery of the principal or interest is at significant risk.

The Reserve For Loan Losses. The risk that borrowers will fail or be unable to repay their loans is an inherent part of the banking business. In order to recognize on a timely basis, to the extent practicable, losses that can result from such failures, banks establish a reserve or allowance for loan losses by means of periodic charges to income referred to as “provisions for loan losses.” When we believe that collection of a loan has become unlikely, either in whole or in part, the carrying amount of the loan is written down to what is believed to be its recoverable value (in any case where the loan is believed to be collectible in part) or written off in its entirety (in any case where the loan is believed to have become uncollectible in full). The write-down in the value, or the write-off, of the loan is charged against the loan loss reserve. Periodic additions are made to the loan loss reserve by making provisions for loan losses in order (i) to replenish and thereby maintain the adequacy of the reserve following the occurrence of loan losses that have been charged against the reserve, and (ii) to increase the reserve in response to increases in the volume of outstanding loans or deteriorations in economic conditions or in the financial condition of any borrowers that increase the potential for future loan losses. At December 31, 2005 the loan loss reserve totaled approximately $5 million or 1% of total loans and leases then outstanding.

As is set forth in the following table, the loan loss reserve is allocated among the different loan categories because there are differing levels of risk associated with each such loan category. The allocation is made based on historical loss experience within each category and management’s periodic review of loans in the loan portfolio. However, the reserves allocated to specific loan categories are not the total amounts available for future losses that might occur within such categories because the total reserve is a general reserve applicable to the entire portfolio. Dollar amounts in the table are set forth in thousands.

Investment Portfolio. As a customary part of our business, we purchase investment grade securities, consisting primarily of securities issued by the United States government and its agencies and by state and local government agencies, in order to diversify our investment risks and provide a source of liquidity for our operations. Additional objectives of our investment policy are to manage interest rate risk, and reinvest in our market areas, while maximizing earnings that can be generated from a portfolio of investment-grade securities. Each security purchased is subject to credit, maturity and liquidity guidelines that are defined in our investment policy and the securities are reviewed regularly to verify their continued creditworthiness.

Competition

The banking business in California generally, and in our market areas in particular, is highly competitive both for loans and deposits and is dominated by a relatively small number of large multi-regional and large out-of-state based banks which have offices covering wide geographic areas. We compete for loans and deposits with such banks, as well as other independent and community banks that are based or have branch offices in our market areas, and with savings and loan associations, credit unions, mortgage companies, money market and other mutual funds, stock brokerage firms, insurance companies and other traditional and nontraditional financial institutions. We also compete for customers’ funds with governmental and private entities issuing debt or equity securities or other forms of investments which may offer different and potentially higher yields than those available through bank deposits.

Major financial institutions that operate throughout California and that have offices in our service areas include Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, Union Bank of California, Washington Mutual Bank, Comerica Bank, Bank of the West and Citibank. Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, Comerica and Citibank and Washington Mutual Bank are

8

headquartered outside of California. Independent banks or financial institutions with offices in our service areas include, among others, City National Bank, Citizens Business Bank, PFF Bank & Trust and Vineyard Bank.

The larger banks and some of the independent institutions have the financial capability to conduct extensive advertising campaigns and to shift their resources to regions or activities of greater potential profitability. Many of them also offer diversified financial services that we do not presently offer directly, such as trust services and international banking services. The larger banks also have substantially more capital and higher lending limits, which enables them to meet the lending needs of larger borrowers whose lending requirements exceed our lending limits.

In order to compete with the financial institutions and financial service organizations operating in our market areas, we rely on our independent status to provide flexible and personalized service to customers. We emphasize personal contacts with customers by our executive officers, directors and employees; develop and participate in local promotional activities; and seek to develop specialized or streamlined services for customers. To the extent customers desire loans in excess of our lending limit or services not offered by us, we attempt to assist customers in obtaining such loans or other services through participations with other banks or assistance from correspondent banks or third party vendors.

Additionally, a growing number of banks and financial services companies are offering customers the ability to effectuate banking transactions with them over the internet. We began offering internet banking services to consumers during 2001 and to our business customers in 2002.

Existing and future state and federal legislation could significantly affect the costs of doing business, the range of permissible activities and competitive balance among major and smaller banks and other financial institutions, all of which could affect the competitive environment in which we operate. We cannot predict the impact such legislation may have on commercial banking in general or on our business in particular. For additional information regarding these matters, see the discussion below under the caption “Supervision and Regulation.”

Supervision and Regulation

Bank holding companies and banks are regulated under extensive federal and state laws. This regulation is intended primarily for the protection of depositors and the FDIC’s deposit insurance fund and not for the benefit of stockholders. Set forth below is a summary description of the material laws and regulations which affect our operations. The description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the laws and regulations that are summarized below.

    Foothill Independent Bancorp

General. We are a registered bank holding company subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act and, pursuant to that Act we are required to file periodic reports with, and we are subject to periodic examinations by, the Federal Reserve Board.

Under Federal Reserve Board regulations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks and may not conduct its operations in an unsafe or unsound manner. In addition, it is the Federal Reserve Board’s policy that, in serving as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks, a bank holding company should stand ready to use available resources to provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary banks, particularly during periods of financial stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility and capital-raising capacity to obtain additional resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. For this reason, as well as others, the Federal Reserve Board requires all bank holding companies to maintain capital at or above certain prescribed levels. See “Capital Standards and Prompt Corrective Action” below. Among other things, under its capital adequacy policies, the Federal Reserve Board may restrict or even prohibit the payment of cash dividends by a bank holding company if that agency believes that payment of dividends would weaken the bank holding company’s capital position or financial strength. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board may treat a failure by a bank holding company to meet these capital requirements to be an unsound and unsafe banking practice, which could lead to the imposition of restrictions on the business conducted by and any growth plans of the bank holding company.

Among the powers conferred on the Federal Reserve Board is the power to require any bank holding company to terminate an activity or terminate control of or liquidate or divest subsidiaries or affiliates that the Federal Reserve Board determines constitutes a significant risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of the bank holding company or any of its banking subsidiaries. The Federal Reserve Board also has the authority to regulate provisions of a bank holding company’s debt, including authority to impose interest ceilings and reserve requirements on such debt. Subject to certain exceptions, a bank holding company also is required to file a written notice and obtain approval from the Federal Reserve Board prior to purchasing or redeeming its own common stock or other equity securities. A bank holding company and its non-banking subsidiaries also are prohibited from engaging in “tie-in” arrangements that would require customers of any of

9

its bank subsidiaries to purchase goods or services from the bank holding company or any of its non-bank subsidiaries in order to obtain loan or other services from its bank subsidiaries.

As a bank holding company, we must obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board for the acquisition of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities, or of substantially all of the assets, of any bank or other bank holding company and for any merger of the Company with any other bank holding company.

We also are a bank holding company within the meaning of Section 3700 of the California Financial Code. As such, we are subject to examination by, and may be required to file reports with, the California Department of Financial Institutions (the “DFI”).

Financial Services Modernization Legislation. In 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “Financial Services Modernization Act”) was enacted into law. The principal objectives of that Act were to establish a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms and other financial service providers to permit a bank holding company system, meeting certain specified qualifications, to engage in a broader range of financial activities and, thereby, to foster greater competition among financial services companies. To accomplish those objectives, among other things, the Financial Services Modernization Act repealed the two affiliation provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act that had been adopted in the early 1930s during the Depression: Section 20, which restricted the affiliation of federally insured banks with firms “engaged principally” in specified securities activities; and Section 32, which restricted officer, director, or employee interlocks between a federally insured bank and any company or person “primarily engaged” in specified securities activities. The Financial Services Modernization Act also contains provisions that expressly preempt any state law restricting the establishment of financial affiliations, primarily related to insurance. This Act also:

• broadens the activities that may be conducted by national banks, banking subsidiaries of bank holding companies, and their financial subsidiaries;

• provides an enhanced framework for protecting the privacy of consumer information;

• adopts a number of provisions related to the capitalization, membership, corporate governance, and other measures designed to modernize the Federal Home Loan Bank system;

• modifies the laws governing the implementation of the Community Reinvestment Act (which is described in greater detail below); and

• addresses a variety of other legal and regulatory issues affecting both day-to-day operations and longer-term activities of financial institutions.

A bank holding company that elects to become a financial holding company may affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are financial in nature or are incidental or complementary to activities that are financial in nature. According to current Federal Reserve Board regulations, activities that are financial in nature include:

• securities underwriting, dealing and market making;

• sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies;

• engaging in insurance underwriting and brokerage;

• merchant banking; and

• other activities that the Federal Reserve Board, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines from time to time to be so closely related to banking, or managing or controlling banks, as to be a proper incident to the provision of banking and related financial services.

In order for a bank holding company to become and to continue to be a financial holding company, and therefore to be eligible to engage in these activities, all of its bank subsidiaries must have been found, at their most recent regulatory examinations, to be well capitalized, well managed and, subject to certain limited exceptions, to be in compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act. If, after a bank holding company has become a financial holding company, any of its bank subsidiaries ceases to maintain compliance with any of those requirements, the financial holding company may not acquire any more financial services businesses permitted to financial holding companies until that bank subsidiary again achieves compliance with those requirements. Moreover, if that bank subsidiary fails to come back into compliance with any of

10

those requirements within a period of 180 days, the Federal Reserve Board has the power to require the financial holding company to divest itself of those of its businesses that are engaged in financial activities solely permitted to a financial holding company, or may even require the holding company to divest itself of all of its bank subsidiaries.

In 2002, we became a financial holding company under the Financial Services Modernization Act. Accordingly, as a financial holding company, we are now permitted to engage in any of the above described financial activities, in addition to those deemed closely related to banking and which, as a result, may be engaged in by bank holding companies generally. Additionally, as a financial holding company, we do not need to obtain prior approval for the acquisition of companies or businesses engaged in such financial activities. By contrast, a bank holding company that is not a financial holding company may not engage in such activities. Instead, it is limited to engaging in banking and such other activities as are determined by the Federal Reserve Board to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.

At the present time we have no plans to engage in any of the financial activities that are permitted to be engaged in by financial holding companies. Additionally, we do not believe that the Financial Services Modernization Act will have a material effect on our operations, at least in the near-term. However, to the extent that it enables banks, securities firms and insurance companies to affiliate, the financial services industry may experience further consolidation. Additionally, the Act may have the result of increasing the extent of competition that we face from larger institutions and other types of companies offering financial products, many of which may have substantially greater financial resources than we have.

Privacy Provisions of the Financial Services Modernization Act. Pursuant to the Financial Services Modernization Act, Federal banking regulators adopted rules that limit the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose non-public information about consumers to non-affiliated third parties. Pursuant to the rules, financial institutions must provide:

• initial notices to customers about their privacy policies, describing the conditions under which they may disclose non-public personal information to non-affiliated third parties and affiliates;

• annual notices of their privacy policies to current customers; and

• a reasonable method for customers to “opt out” of disclosures to non-affiliated third parties.

These privacy provisions affect how consumer information is transmitted through diversified financial companies and conveyed to outside vendors. These privacy provisions have not had a material impact on our financial condition or our results of operations.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 addresses accounting oversight and corporate governance matters of companies whose securities are registered under the Securities Exchange Act (“public companies”) and, therefore, applies to the Company. Among other things, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act:

• provided for the creation of a five-member oversight board appointed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, known as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (or the “PCOAB”), that sets standards for public accounting firms and invests the PCOAB with investigative and disciplinary powers in exercising its oversight responsibilities;

• prohibits public accounting firms from providing various types of consulting services to their public company clients and requires accounting firms to rotate partners among public company clients every five years;

• increased the criminal penalties for financial crimes;

• requires public companies to implement disclosure controls and procedures designed to assure that material information regarding their business and financial performance is included in the public reports they file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act Reports”);

• requires the chief executive and chief financial officers of public companies to certify as to the accuracy and completeness of the Exchange Act Reports that their companies file, the financial statements included in those Reports and the effectiveness of their disclosure procedures and controls;

11

• requires, pursuant to Section 404 thereof, that (i) the chief executive and chief financial officers of a public company test and certify to the effectiveness of their company’s internal control over financial reporting and (ii) its outside auditors to independently test and issue a report as to whether the company’s internal control over its financial reporting is effective and whether there are any material weaknesses in the company’s internal control over financial reporting;

• requires that a majority of a public company’s directors be independent of the company’s management and the non-management directors that serve on a public company’s audit committee to meet standards of independence that are more stringent than those that apply to non-management directors generally;

• requires public companies whose publicly traded securities have a value in excess of $75 million to file their Exchange Act Reports on a more accelerated basis than had been required prior to the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

• requires more expeditious reporting by directors and officers and other public company insiders regarding their trading in company securities; and

• established statutory separations between investment banking firms and analysts.

We have taken the actions required by, and we believe we are in compliance with, the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that are applicable to us. Among other things, we have implemented disclosure controls and procedures and taken other actions to meet the expanded disclosure requirements and the certification requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We also have determined that six of our seven directors meet the independence requirements applicable to directors generally, and that all of the members of our audit committee meet the more stringent standards of independence, established pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

    Foothill Independent Bank

General. As a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board, which is its primary federal banking regulator, and as a California state chartered bank, the Bank is subject to supervision, periodic examination and regulation by the DFI. Also, because its deposits are insured by the FDIC, the Bank is subject to regulations promulgated by the FDIC.

Various requirements and restrictions under the Federal and California banking laws affect the operations of the Bank. These laws and the implementing regulations that are promulgated by Federal and state regulatory agencies, cover most aspects of a bank’s operations, including the reserves a bank must maintain against deposits and for possible loan losses and other contingencies; the types of deposits it may obtain and the interest it is permitted to pay on deposit accounts; the loans and investments that a bank may make; the borrowings that a bank may incur; the number and location of banking offices that a bank may establish and the rate at which it may grow its assets; the acquisition and merger activities of a bank; the amount of dividends that a bank may pay; and the capital requirements that a bank must satisfy. A more detailed discussion regarding capital requirements that are applicable to us and the Bank is set forth below under the caption “Capital Standards and Prompt Corrective Action.”

Like other FDIC-insured banks, the Bank is subject to periodic examination by its primary federal regulatory agency, which is the Federal Reserve Board. If, as a result of an examination of the Bank, the Federal Reserve Board were to determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity, or other aspects of the Bank’s operations have become unsatisfactory or that the Bank or its management is violating any banking laws or regulations, the Federal Reserve Board is empowered to take a number of remedial actions. These actions include the power to enjoin “unsafe or unsound” practices, to require affirmative action to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to require the Bank to raise additional capital, to restrict the Bank’s growth and the payment of cash dividends, to assess civil monetary penalties against the Bank’s officers or directors, to remove a bank’s officers or directors and ultimately to terminate the Bank’s deposit insurance, which would result in a revocation of the Bank’s charter and require it to cease its banking operations. Additionally, under California law the DFI conducts periodic examinations of the Bank and has many of the same remedial powers as the Federal Reserve Board.

Dividends and Other Transfers of Funds. Dividends from the Bank constitute the principal source of cash for Foothill Independent Bancorp (the “Bancorp”), which is a legal entity separate and distinct from the Bank. The Bank is subject, however, to various statutory and regulatory restrictions on its ability to pay cash dividends to us. In addition, the

12

DFI and the Federal Reserve Board have the authority to prohibit the Bank from paying dividends, if either of those agencies deem payment of dividends by the Bank to us to be an unsafe or unsound practice.

Although dividend restrictions of this nature have not been imposed on the Bank in the past, it is possible, depending upon the future financial condition of the Bank and other factors, that either of those agencies could assert that the payment of dividends or other payments by the Bank to the Bancorp might, under some circumstances, constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board has established guidelines with respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels of capital by banks and bank holding companies under its jurisdiction. A failure by the Bank to maintain compliance with the standards set forth in those guidelines could result in the imposition by federal bank regulators, under the prompt corrective action provisions of federal law, of restrictions on the amount of dividends which the Bank would be permitted to pay to us, as well as restrictions on the Bank’s business operations that could restrict its growth and increase its costs of operations and thereby adversely affect its operating results. See “Capital Standards and Prompt Corrective Action” below.

Restrictions on Transactions between the Bank and the Company and Company Affiliates. The Bank is subject to restrictions imposed by federal law on any extensions of credit to, and the issuance of any guarantees or letters of credit on behalf of, the Bancorp or its other affiliates; the purchase of, or investments in, Bancorp stock or other Bancorp securities; the taking of such securities as collateral for loans; and the purchase of assets from the Bancorp or its other subsidiaries. Such restrictions prevent the Bancorp or its other affiliates from borrowing from the Bank unless the loans are secured by marketable obligations in designated amounts. In addition, no such loan or investment by the Bank to or in the Bancorp or any other Bancorp affiliates may exceed 10% of the Bank’s capital and surplus (as defined by federal regulations) and the total of such loans and investments may not exceed, in the aggregate, 20% of the Bank’s capital and surplus. California law also imposes restrictions with respect to transactions between the Bank and the Bancorp and other controlling persons of the Bank. Additional restrictions on transactions with affiliates may be imposed on the Bank under the prompt corrective action provisions of federal law.

Capital Standards and Prompt Corrective Action.

Capital Standards. The Federal Reserve Board and the other federal bank regulatory agencies have adopted uniform risk-based minimum capital guidelines intended to require federally insured banking organizations to maintain capital at levels that reflect the degree of risk associated with the banking organization’s operations, both for assets reported on the balance sheet and assets, such as letters of credit and recourse arrangements, which are recorded as off-balance sheet items. Under these guidelines, nominal dollar amounts of assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet items are multiplied by one of several risk-adjusted percentages, which range from zero percent for assets with low credit risk, such as U.S. Treasury securities, to 100% for assets with relatively high credit risk, such as commercial loans.

These guidelines require federally insured banking organizations to maintain a ratio of qualifying total capital-to-risk adjusted assets of at least 8% and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital (the sum of a bank’s common stock, non-redeemable preferred stock and retained earnings)-to-risk adjusted assets of 4%. In addition to the risked-based guidelines, federal banking regulators require federally insured banking organizations to maintain a ratio of Tier 1 capital-to-total average assets of 4%, which is referred to as a banking organization’s “leverage ratio.” However, for a banking organization to be rated by a bank regulatory agency above minimum capital requirements, the minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets must be higher than 4% (see “Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms” below). In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and leverage ratios that apply across the industry, federal and state banking regulators have the discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for any banking organization at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios generally applicable to insured banking organizations, if the regulator believes that the financial condition or operating results of the particular bank are worse than that of, or there are other risks faced by it that are greater than the risks faced by, most commercial banking organizations generally.

Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms. Federal banking agencies, including the Federal Reserve Board, possess broad powers to take corrective and other supervisory action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions, including those institutions that fall below one or more the minimum capital ratios prescribed by federal banking regulations.

Each federal banking agency, including the Federal Reserve Board, has promulgated regulations defining the following five categories in which an insured depository institution will be placed, based on its capital ratios:

• well capitalized;

13

• adequately capitalized;

• undercapitalized;

• significantly undercapitalized; and

• critically undercapitalized.

However, a bank that, based upon its capital levels, is classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized or undercapitalized, may be treated as though it were in the next lower capital category, if its federal bank regulatory agency, after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an unsafe or unsound condition or practice at that institution warrants such treatment. At each successive lower capital category, an insured depository institution is subject to greater operating restrictions and increased Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms supervision. The federal banking agencies, however, may not treat a significantly undercapitalized institution as critically undercapitalized unless its capital ratio actually warrants such treatment.

The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2005, the capital ratios of the Bank and compares those capital ratios to the federally established capital requirements that must be met for a bank to be categorized as “adequately-capitalized” and “well-capitalized,” respectively, under the prompt corrective action regulations:

	Bank’ Ratio		To be Adequately Capitalized		To be Well Capitalized
At December 31, 2005:
Total Capital to Risk Weighted Assets	13.6	%	(=or>) 8.0	%	(=or>) 10.0	%
Tier I Capital to Risk Weighted Assets	12.7	%	(=or>) 4.0	%	(=or>) 6.0	%
Tier I Capital to Average Assets	10.1	%	(=or>) 4.0	%	(=or>) 5.0	%

As the table indicates, at December 31, 2005 the Bank exceeded the capital ratios required to be classified, and it has been classified by the Federal Reserve Board, as a “well capitalized” institution under the federally established prompt corrective action regulations.

Safety and Soundness Standards. In addition to measures taken under the prompt corrective action provisions, federally insured banking organizations may be subject to potential enforcement actions by federal bank regulatory agencies for unsafe or unsound practices or for violating any law, rule, regulation, or any condition imposed in writing by the agency or in any written agreement entered into by the banking organization with the agency. The federal banking agencies have adopted guidelines designed to identify and address potential safety and soundness concerns that could, if not corrected, lead to a deterioration in the quality of a bank’s assets or to liquidity or capital problems. Those guidelines set forth operational and managerial standards relating to such matters as:

• internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems;

• loan documentation;

• credit underwriting;

• asset growth;

• earnings; and

• compensation, fees and benefits.

These guidelines also provide six standards for establishing and maintaining a system to identify problem assets and prevent those assets from deteriorating. Under these standards, an insured banking organization is expected to:

• conduct periodic asset quality reviews to identify problem assets, such as problem loans or investments;

• estimate the inherent losses in problem assets and establish and maintain adequate reserves, such as a loan loss reserve, sufficient to absorb estimated losses;

• compare problem asset totals to its capital;

• take appropriate corrective action to resolve problem assets;

14

• consider the size and potential risks of material asset concentrations; and

• provide periodic asset quality reports with adequate information for management and the board of directors to assess the level of asset risk to which the bank is exposed.

These guidelines also establish standards for evaluating and monitoring earnings and for ensuring that earnings are sufficient to enable the bank to maintain adequate capital and reserves.

FDIC Deposit Insurance. The FDIC operates a Bank Insurance Fund (“BIF”) which insures the deposits, up to federally prescribed limits, of those banks that are subject to regulation by a federal banking regulatory agency and have elected to participate in that Fund (“BIF Members”). The Bank is a BIF Member and, as a result, its deposit accounts are insured up to the maximum amount permitted by law. The FDIC charges all BIF Members an annual assessment for the insurance of their deposits. The amount of a bank’s annual assessment is based on its relative risk of default as measured by (i) the insured bank’s federal regulatory capital risk category, which can range from well capitalized to less than adequately capitalized, and (ii) its supervisory subgroup category, which is based on the federal regulatory assessment of the financial condition of the institution and the probability that FDIC or other corrective action will be required. The assessment rate currently ranges from 0 to 27 cents per $100 of domestic insured deposits. The FDIC has the authority to increase or decrease the rate of the assessment on a semi-annual basis. An increase in the assessment rate would increase the Bank’s costs of doing business.

The FDIC may terminate a bank’s deposit insurance upon finding that it has engaged in any unsafe or unsound practices, is in too unsafe or unsound a condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable laws, regulations, orders, or conditions imposed by the FDIC or the bank’s primary federal regulatory agency. California does not permit commercial banks to operate without FDIC deposit insurance and, as a result, termination of a California bank’s FDIC insurance would result in its closure.

All FDIC-insured banking institutions also are required to pay an annual assessment for the payment of interest on bonds (known as “FICO Bonds”) that were issued by the Financing Corporation, a federally chartered corporation, to assist in the recovery of the savings and loan industry following the failure of numerous savings and loan institutions in the 1980s. Effective for the first quarter of 2006, the FDIC established the FICO assessment rate at approximately $0.0132 per $100 of assessable deposits of the insured banks. The FICO assessment rate for the fourth quarter of 2005 was approximately $0.0142 per $100 of assessable deposits of the insured banks. The FICO assessment rates are subject to quarterly adjustments by the FDIC to reflect changes in the assessment bases of the FDIC’s insurance funds and, unlike the BIF assessments, do not vary on the basis of a bank’s capital or supervisory risk categories.

Community Reinvestment Act and Fair Lending Developments. The Bank, like other federally insured banking organizations, is subject to fair lending requirements and reporting obligations involving home mortgage lending operations and Community Reinvestment Act activities. The Community Reinvestment Act (the “CRA”) generally requires federal bank regulatory agencies to evaluate the performance of the financial institutions which they regulate to determine whether they are meeting the credit needs of their local communities, including low-and moderate-income neighborhoods. A bank’s compliance with its CRA obligations is measured in accordance with a performance-based evaluation system. A bank may incur substantial penalties and be required to take corrective measures in the event it is found to be in violation of the CRA or other fair lending laws. The federal banking agencies also may take compliance with those laws and CRA obligations into account when regulating and supervising other activities of the banks they regulate and their bank holding companies. For example, when a bank holding company files an application with the Federal Reserve Board for approval to acquire a bank or other bank holding company, the Federal Reserve Board will assess the CRA performance of each of its existing bank subsidiaries, and a finding that such performance has been deficient could be a basis for denying the holding company’s application.

Interstate Banking and Branching. The Bank Holding Company Act permits bank holding companies from any state to acquire banks and bank holding companies located in any other state, subject to conditions including nationwide- and state-imposed concentration limits. The Bank also has the ability, subject to certain restrictions, to acquire branches outside California either by acquisition from or a merger with another bank. The establishment by a state bank of new bank branches (often referred to as “de novo” branches) in other states is also possible in states with laws that expressly permit it. Interstate branches are subject to laws of the states in which they are located. Consolidations of and competition among banks has increased as banks have begun to branch across state lines and enter new markets.

USA Patriot Act of 2001. The USA Patriot Act of 2001, enacted into law in response to the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, is intended to strengthen the ability of U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies to work

15

cohesively to combat terrorism on a variety of fronts. Among other things that Act contains sweeping anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws and imposes various requirements on banking organizations, including:

• due diligence requirements for financial institutions that administer, maintain, or manage private bank accounts or correspondent accounts for non-U.S. persons;

• requirements for verifying customer identification at account opening;

• rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators and law enforcement entities in identifying parties that may be involved in terrorism or money laundering;

• obligations to file reports to the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network for cash transactions exceeding $10,000; and

• obligations to file suspicious activities reports if a financial institution believes a customer may be violating U.S. laws or regulations.

The U.S. Treasury Department also has adopted regulations requiring banking institutions to incorporate a customer identification program into their written anti-money laundering plans that would implement reasonable procedures for:

• verifying the identity of any person seeking to open an account, to the extent reasonable and practicable;

• maintaining records of the information used to verify the person’s identity; and

• determining whether the person appears on any list of known or suspected terrorists or terrorist organizations.

Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (“FACTA”). FACTA revises certain sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and establishes additional rights for consumers to obtain copies of and to correct their credit reports; addresses identity theft; and establishes additional requirements for consumer reporting agencies and financial institutions that provide adverse credit information about consumers to those agencies. FACTA also extends the period during which consumers may opt-out of prescreened lists for credit or insurance marketing solicitations; extends the statute of limitations for civil liability for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act; and requires a financial institution’s affiliates that exchange consumer information for market solicitation purposes to alert the consumer of the practice and allows the consumer to prohibit permanently all solicitations for marketing purposes. Certain provisions of FACTA became effective at the end of 2004, and its remaining provisions became effective on various dates in 2005. FACTA also preempts state laws that provide for similar or even more extensive regulations, such as the California Financial Information Privacy Act, which became effective in July 1, 2003 and had imposed disclosure and reporting requirements on financial institutions based in California that were more extensive than those that are contained in FACTA. Because we had already implemented measures to comply with the California Financial Privacy Act, we believe that we will be able to satisfy the material requirements of FACTA and the regulations implementing it without incurring any material increases in our operating expenses.

Check Clearing for the Twenty-First Century Act. The Check Clearing for the Twenty-First Century Act, also known as Check 21, which became effective on October 28, 2004, is intended to revamp the way banks process checks. Check 21 will facilitate check truncation, a process which eliminates the original paper check from the check clearing process. As a result, many checks will be processed electronically. Under Check 21, as a bank processes a check, funds from the check writer’s account are transferred to the check depositor’s account electronically, and an electronic image of the check, which is a processable printout known as a substitute check or Image Replacement Document (IRD), will be considered the legal equivalent of the original check. Banks can choose to send substitute checks as electronic files to be printed on-site or in close proximity to the paying bank. For banking institutions and their clients, these changes have the potential to reduce costs, improve efficiency in check collections and accelerate funds availability, while alleviating dependence on the national transportation system.

Future Legislation and Regulatory Initiatives. In recent years, significant legislative proposals and reforms affecting the banking and financial services industry have been introduced in and considered by Congress, including reforms that would result in a consolidation of the three current federal bank regulatory agencies, the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the Comptroller of the Currency, into a single federal bank regulatory agency. We cannot predict what new proposals might be introduced in the current Congress or whether any will be enacted into law. It is possible, however,

16

that new laws may be adopted that could have a significant impact on the operations and financial performance of banking institutions or the competitive environment in which we operate.

Employees

At December 31, 2005, we had 157 full-time and 84 part-time employees, all of whom are employees of the Bank and three of whom also are employees of the Bancorp. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Our internet website address is www.foothillbank.com. Our Annual Report to Stockholders and Quarterly Reports as well as all of our SEC Filings are available on our website.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements, as described at page 1 of this Report under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements.” We believe that the risks described below are the most important factors which may cause our actual future results of operations to differ materially from the results projected in the forward-looking statements.

We face intense competition from other banks and financial institutions that could hurt our business

We conduct our business operations in Southern California, where the banking business is highly competitive and is dominated by a relatively small number of large multi-state banks with operations and offices covering wide geographical areas. We also compete with other financial service businesses, mutual fund companies, and securities brokerage and investment banking firms that offer competitive banking and financial products and services. The larger banks, and some of those other financial institutions, have greater resources that enable them to conduct extensive advertising campaigns and to shift resources to regions or activities of greater potential profitability. Some of these banks and institutions also have substantially more capital and higher lending limits that could enable them to attract larger clients, and offer financial products and services that we are unable to offer, particularly with respect to attracting loans and deposits.

Increased competition may prevent us (i) from achieving increases, or could even result in decreases, in our loan volume or deposit balances, or (ii) from increasing interest rates on loans or reducing interest rates we pay to attract or retain deposits, any of which could cause a decline in our interest income or an increase in our interest expense, that could lead to reductions in our net interest income and earnings.

Adverse changes in economic conditions in Southern California could disproportionately harm our business

The large majority of our customers and the properties securing a large proportion of our loans are located in Southern California. A worsening of economic conditions or the occurrence of natural disasters in Southern California could harm our business by:

• reducing loan demand which, in turn, would lead to reduced net interest margins and net interest income;

• affecting the financial capability of borrowers to meet their loan obligations, which could result in increases in loan losses and require us to make additional provisions for possible loan losses, thereby reducing our earnings; and

• leading to reductions in real property values that, due to our reliance on real property to secure many of our loans, could make it more difficult for us to prevent losses from being incurred on non-performing loans through the sale of such real properties.

Additionally, real estate values in California have been increasing rapidly in recent years. In the event that these values are not sustained or other events, such as earthquakes or fires, that may be more prevalent in Southern California than in other geographic areas, cause a decline in real estate values, our collateral coverage for our loans will be reduced and we may suffer increased loan losses.

17

National economic conditions and changes in Federal Reserve Board monetary policies could affect our operating results

Our profitability is substantially dependent on our net interest income. Like most banking organizations and other depository institutions, our net interest income is affected by a number of factors outside of our control, including changes in market rates of interest which, in turn, are affected by changes in national economic conditions and national monetary policies adopted by the Federal Reserve Board. From 2001 and continuing until June 30, 2004, the Federal Reserve Board followed a policy of reducing interest rates in an effort to stimulate the national economy. Those interest rate reductions, coupled with sluggishness in the economy, led to decreases in our net interest margin during 2003 and made it more difficult to increase earnings. We cannot predict whether the improvement in the economy will continue or whether the Federal Reserve Board’s recent increases in interest rates, will succeed in lessening the downward pressure on net interest margins that was prevalent through most of the last three years.

On the other hand, the benefits of increased market rates of interest may be offset, partially or in whole, because those increases will increase the costs of attracting deposits and obtaining borrowings. If we are unable to effectuate commensurate increases in the rates we are able to charge on existing or new loans due to competitive pressures or contractual restrictions on our ability to increase interest rates on existing loans, our net interest margin may suffer despite the increase in interest rates. Changes in economic conditions and increasing rates of interest also could cause prospective borrowers to fail to qualify for our loan products and reduce loan demand, thereby reducing our net interest margins. In addition, if economic conditions were to worsen, that could adversely affect the financial capability of borrowers to meet their loan obligations and, therefore, cause an increase in, and require increases in the provisions we make for, possible loan losses.

We could incur losses on the loans we make

The failure or inability of borrowers to repay their loans is an inherent risk in the banking business. We take a number of measures designed to reduce this risk, including the maintenance of stringent loan underwriting policies and the establishment of reserves for possible loan losses and the requirement that borrowers provide collateral that we could sell in the event they fail to pay their loans. However, the ability of borrowers to repay their loans, the adequacy of our reserves and our ability to sell collateral for amounts sufficient to offset loan losses are affected by a number of factors outside of our control, such as changes in economic conditions, increases in market rates of interest and changes in the condition or value of the collateral securing our loans. As a result, we could incur losses on the loans we make that will hurt our operating results and weaken our financial condition.

Government regulations may impair our operations, restrict our growth or increase our operating costs

We are subject to extensive supervision and regulation by federal and state bank regulatory agencies. The primary objective of these agencies is to protect bank depositors and other customers and not shareholders, whose respective interests will often differ. The regulatory agencies have the legal authority to impose restrictions which they believe are needed to protect depositors and customers of banking institutions, even if such restrictions would adversely affect the ability of the banking institution to expand its business and to pay cash dividends, or result in increases in its costs of doing business or hinder its ability to compete with financial services companies that are not regulated or banks or financial service organizations that are less regulated. Additionally, due to the complex and technical nature of many of the government regulations to which banking organizations are subject, inadvertent violations of those regulations may occur. In such an event, we would be required to correct or implement measures to prevent a recurrence of such violations. If more serious violations were to occur, the regulatory agencies could limit our activities or growth, fine us or ultimately put us out of business.

The loss of key personnel could hurt our financial performance

Our success depends to a great extent on the continued availability of our existing management, including George E. Langley, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Joe Cecala, our Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer. In addition to their skills and experience as bankers, our executive officers provide us with extensive community ties upon which our competitive strategy is partially based. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on these executives. As a result, the loss of the services of either of these officers could harm our ability to implement our business strategy or our future operating results.

Risks relating to the Merger with First Community Bancorp

As is described in Part I of this Report, on December 14, 2005, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with First Community. That Agreement provides for a merger (the “Merger”) pursuant to which (i) Foothill will be merged with and into First Community, (ii) First Community will be the surviving corporation and Foothill’s separate existence shall terminate, and (iii) Foothill’s stockholders will become shareholders of First Community, receiving a number, ranging from 0.4421 to 0.5685, of a share of First Community common stock for each of their Foothill shares.

No Assurance that Expected Benefits of Merger will be Realized. Foothill and First Community entered into the Merger Agreement because of their belief that the Merger would enable them to achieve certain benefits, including cost savings and efficiencies in the operations of the combined company that will result from the Merger. Realization of the anticipated benefits of the Merger is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the risks that (i) the integration of the businesses of First Community and Foothill will prove to be more difficult and less efficient and more costly than expected, and (ii) costs savings and efficiencies expected to be realized after integration of the two companies has been completed will not be realized. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger could result in increased costs, decreases in the amount of expected revenues generated by the combined company and diversion of management’s time and energy and could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects and the trading prices of First Community’s common stock after the Merger has been consummated.

No Assurance that Merger will be consummated. The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions, some of which are outside of our control and, as a result, there is no assurance that the Merger will be consummated. A termination of the Merger, should that occur, would harm our business. Among other things, since the Merger was announced, some of our employees have taken positions with other banking institutions, including some of our competitors. Consequently, our ability to provide the level of service that we had previously provided to our customers would be compromised and our competitive position in our markets could be weakened if the Merger were to be terminated. Additionally, some of our customers have taken their business to other banking institutions since the Merger was announced and, if the Merger were to be terminated, it would be difficult to get those customers to resume doing business with us. Finally, we believe that any failure of the Merger to be consummated, even if that failure was not caused by us, would be looked upon negatively by investors in the stock market and, for that reason, could harm the trading prices of our shares.

No Assurance that our Dividend Policy will not Change

In accordance with our Board of Directors’ dividend policy, we have paid a regular quarterly cash dividend since September 1999 and have made periodic repurchases of our outstanding shares. If the Merger with First Community is consummated in the second quarter of 2006, as is expected, we will not pay any further cash dividends before the Merger is consummated. Even if the Merger were to be terminated, there can be no assurance that the amount or frequency of cash dividends will not have to be reduced or that cash dividends will not have to be suspended, as this will depend on such factors as future economic and market conditions, our future financial performance and financial condition and our needs for capital to support future growth or to meet regulatory capital requirements.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our executive offices and those of the Bank’s are located at the Bank’s main banking office at 510 South Grand Avenue, Glendora, California. The Bank owns the building and the land at that location; owns the building and leases, under a 20-year ground lease, the land on which its Claremont banking office is located; and occupies its ten other banking offices, and the facilities where its service center are located, under leases expiring at various dates through 2015. We believe that the Bank’s present facilities are adequate for its present purposes and anticipated growth in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are subject to legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of our business. None of the legal proceedings that were pending at December 31, 2005 is expected to have a material adverse effect on us.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

None.

Transfer Agent. The transfer agent and registrar for the Company’s shares is Registrar and Transfer Company, the address of which is 10 Commerce Drive, Cranford, New Jersey 07016.

Dividends and Repurchases of Shares

Dividend Policy. It has been and continues to be the objective of our Board of Directors to retain earnings that are needed to meet not only the capital requirements applicable to the Company and the Bank under applicable government regulations, but also to support our further growth. At the same time, it is the policy of the Board of Directors to pay cash dividends if earnings exceed the amounts required to meet that objective. Pursuant to this policy, the Company has paid regular quarterly cash dividends since September of 1999 and, in January of 2006, the Board of Directors declared a $0.15 per share cash dividend, which is the 26th consecutive quarterly cash dividend declared since the current dividend policy was adopted by the Board of Directors. There is no assurance that the amount of cash dividends will not be reduced or the payment of cash dividends will not be suspended in the future.

We paid our last cash dividend in the first quarter of 2006. It is our expectation that, if our merger with and into First Community Bancorp is consummated during the second quarter this year, no further cash dividends will be paid by us to our stockholders.

Stock Repurchases. In January of 2003, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $5,000,000 of its shares of common stock. Repurchases may be made from time-to-time in open market or in privately negotiated transactions when opportunities to do so at favorable prices present themselves, in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines. As of December 31, 2004, we had repurchased a total of 155,141 shares of our common stock under this program for an aggregate price of approximately $2,985,000. We ceased the repurchase of shares when our planned merger with First Community was first announced in December 2005.

Restrictions Applicable to the Payment of Dividends and Stock Repurchases. Cash dividends from the Bank represent the principal source of funds available to Foothill for paying cash dividends to our stockholders and making stock repurchases. Therefore, government regulations, including the laws of the State of California, as they pertain to the payment of cash dividends by California state chartered banks, limit the amount of funds that will be available to us to fund any operations that we may conduct, separate from the Bank’s operations, as well as to pay cash dividends to the Company’s stockholders and to repurchase its shares.

20

California law places a statutory restriction on the amount of cash dividends that a state chartered bank may pay to its shareholders. Under that law, which applies to the Bank, without the prior approval of the DFI, dividends declared by the Bank may not exceed, in any calendar year, the lesser of (i) the Bank’s net income for the year plus its retained earnings generated in the two preceding years (after deducting all dividends paid during that period), or (ii) the Bank’s aggregate retained earnings. As of December 31, 2005, the sum of the Bank’s net income for that year plus its retained earnings for the prior two years totaled $19,119,000 and its retained earnings totaled $55,529,000.

However, because payment of cash dividends has the effect of reducing a bank’s capital, as a practical matter the capital requirements imposed on the Bank, as a federally insured bank, operate to preclude the payment of cash dividends in amounts that might otherwise be permitted by California law. See “BUSINESS—Supervision and Regulation—Capital Standards and Prompt Corrective Action” contained in Part I of this Report. Additionally, Federal bank regulatory agencies, as part of their supervisory powers, generally require insured banks to adopt dividend policies which limit the payment of cash dividends much more strictly than do applicable laws.

Section 23(a) of the Federal Reserve Act also restricts the Bank from extending credit to the Company or any other subsidiary of the Company.

A more detailed discussion of the capital requirements and other restrictions applicable to the Bank is contained in Part I of this Report in the Section entitled “BUSINESS—Supervision and Regulation.”

Rights Dividend. On February 25, 1997, the Board of Directors adopted a Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which it declared a dividend distribution of rights (the “Rights”) to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock and, under certain circumstances, other securities, to the holders of record of its outstanding shares of Common Stock.

The Rights dividend was made to holders of record of shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the close of business on March 18, 1997 and are attached to the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Subject to certain exceptions, upon the occurrence of an attempted acquisition of control of the Company, that is not approved by the Board of Directors, each Right will entitle the registered holder to purchase from the Company, at an initial exercise price of $48.00 per Right (subject to adjustment), such number of newly issued shares of the Company’s Common Stock or the common stock of the acquiring or surviving company in a change of control transaction, depending on the type of triggering event, equal to an aggregate market value as of the date of the triggering event of two (2) times the exercise price of the Right.

The issuance of the Rights dividend was intended to encourage any one seeking to acquire the Company to negotiate the terms of such an acquisition with the Board of Directors, rather than launching a hostile take over attempt. The Board of Directors believes that, through negotiations, the Board and management would be able to better ascertain the intentions and capabilities of anyone seeking to gain control of the Company and take steps needed to achieve fair and non-discriminatory treatment of all stockholders of the Company. If the Board, as a result of such efforts, comes to support the proposed acquisition, it has the authority to suspend the exercisability of these Rights. However, the existence of the Rights may also have the effect of discouraging acquisition proposals that may be viewed as favorable to the Company’s stockholders.

The foregoing description of the Rights is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement.

The Rights Agent for the Rights is Registrar and Transfer Company, the transfer agent for the Company’s Common Stock.

At the time our Board of Directors approved the Merger Agreement with First Community, it also amended the Rights Plan to make it inapplicable to the proposed Merger with First Community pursuant to that Agreement.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements, and the footnotes thereto, contained elsewhere in this report and the statements regarding forward-looking information and the factors that could affect our future financial performance described below in this Report.

Our principal operating subsidiary is Foothill Independent Bank (the “Bank”), which is a California state chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve System. The Bank accounts for substantially all of our consolidated revenues and income. Accordingly, the following discussion focuses primarily on the Bank’s operations and financial condition.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The discussion below in this Section of this Annual Report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). Those Sections of the 1933 Act and 1934 Act provide a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their financial performance so long as they provide meaningful, cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ significantly from projected results. Forward-looking statements often include the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” Any statements as to our expectations or beliefs concerning, or projections or forecasts of, our future financial performance or future financial condition, or with respect to trends in our business or in our markets, are forward-looking statements. Factors that could affect our future operating results and cause them to differ, possibly significantly, from those currently anticipated are described in (i) Item 1A, entitled “Risk Factors,” in Section I of this Report, and (ii) the subsection of this Item 7 entitled “Critical Accounting Policies” below and, accordingly, the descriptions of the Risk Factors and the Critical Accounting Policies in this Report should be read in their entirety.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Overview. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and general practices in the banking industry. The information contained within our financial statements is, to a significant extent, based on approximate measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. However, the carrying value of some of our assets can be affected by the estimates and judgments we make about anticipated future events and circumstances and business and economic trends, and their effects on our operating results. In many cases, the occurrence or non-occurrence and the effects of those events and circumstances are outside of our control. As a consequence, if events or circumstances, or their consequences, turn out differently than we had anticipated when we made our estimates or judgments, our operating results in the future also could prove to be different, possibly materially, than those that are currently expected.

Judgments Regarding Reserves for Potential Loan Losses. The accounting policies we follow in determining the sufficiency of the reserves we establish for possible loan losses require us to make judgments and assumptions about economic and market conditions and trends that can affect the ability of our borrowers to meet their loan payment obligations. For example, if economic or market conditions were to change in an unexpectedly adverse manner or interest rates were to increase beyond the levels expected by us when we established the reserves for loan losses, those changed conditions could increase the risks of borrower payment defaults, which could require us to increase our reserves for possible future loan losses. Since those reserves are increased by a charge against income (known as the “provision for loan losses”), such changed conditions could cause our earnings to decline in the period when those increases are recorded. (A more detailed discussion regarding the provision for loan losses is set forth below in this Item 7 in the subsection entitled “Results of Operation — Provision for Loan Losses”.) Additionally, conditions or events of this nature could require us to reduce the carrying values of the loans that are affected by these conditions (often referred to as “loan write-downs or “loan charge-offs”). Since loans represent the largest component of our total assets, unanticipated changes in economic or market conditions potentially can have a significant effect on the amount of our reported assets as set forth on our balance sheet.

23

Utilization of Deferred Income Tax Benefits. The provision that we make for income taxes in our statements of income is based on, among other things, our ability to use certain income tax benefits available under state and federal income tax laws to reduce our income tax liability. As of December 31, 2005, the total of the unused income tax benefits (referred to in our consolidated financial statements as a “deferred tax asset”), available to reduce our income taxes in future periods was $3,938,000. Those tax benefits will expire over time unless used and, therefore, the realization of those tax benefits is dependent on our generating taxable income in the future in amounts sufficient to enable us to use those tax benefits prior to their expiration. We have made a judgment, based on historical experience and current and anticipated market and economic conditions and trends, that it is more likely than not that we will generate taxable income in future years sufficient to fully use those benefits. In the event, however, that our income was to decline in future periods, making it less likely that those benefits could be fully used, we would be required to establish a valuation reserve to cover the potential loss of those tax benefits. The creation of such an allowance would result in an increase in the provision we make for income taxes, and, therefore, would have the effect of reducing our net income.

OVERVIEW OF FISCAL 2005

Operating Results

Generally, the principal determinant of a banking organization’s income is its net interest income, which is the difference between the interest that a bank earns on its loans, investments and other interest earning assets, and its interest expense, which consists primarily of the interest it must pay to attract and retain deposits and the interest it pays on other interest bearing liabilities. A bank’s interest income and interest expense are, in turn, affected by a number of factors, many of which are outside of its control, that affect interest rates and also the demand for loans and the ability of borrowers to meet their loan obligations. Those factors include the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board, national and local economic conditions, and competition from other depository institutions and financial services companies.

The following table sets forth information regarding the interest income that we generated, the interest expense that we incurred, and our net interest income and our net earnings, in the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2005		2004		2003
	(In thousands)
Interest Income	$	43,114	$	37,030	$	35,680
Interest Expense		5,478		4,467		4,283
Net interest income		37,636		32,563		31,397
Net Income	$	11,286	$	9,355	$	8,421

In 2001 the Federal Reserve Board adopted and began implementing a monetary policy that was designed to reduce market rates of interest in an effort to stimulate the U.S. economy, which was heading into recession. That policy continued until mid-2004, as a hoped-for economic recovery had been slow to develop. Pursuant to that policy, the Federal Reserve Board reduced interest rates throughout that period, which caused the prime rate of interest charged by most banks to decline from a high of 9.50% to 4.75% in 2001, to 4.25% in November 2002 and, finally, to 4.00% in June 2003. However, since June 30, 2004, the Federal Reserve Board has increased been increasing interest rates which, in turn, have led to increases in our prime rate of interest, as well as those charged by most banks, to a current level of 7.50%. Current forecasts project further increases in the prime rate of interest to 8.00% or 8.25% by the end of the fiscal 2006. Due primarily those interest rate increases, the average rate of interest that we earned on our interest-earning assets increased to 5.9% in fiscal 2005 from 5.5% in fiscal 2004, and was just slightly below the 6.0% in fiscal 2003.

During fiscal 2005, we increased our net income by $1,931,000, or 20.6%, to nearly $11.3 million, up from $9.4 million in fiscal 2004 due primarily to a $5.1 million increase in net interest income. That increase was primarily attributable to:

• An increase in the volume of loans as compared to 2004;

• The increases in interest rates implemented during 2005; and

24

• An increase in non-interest bearing demand and lower interest bearing savings and money market deposits, and a decline in higher interest-bearing time deposits, in each case relative to total deposits, which partially offset the effects of an increase in the volume of total deposits and increasing rates of interest paid on interest-bearing deposits.

As the following table indicates, net earnings for 2005 represented a return on average assets of 1.42% and a return on average equity of 16.84%, compared to 1.25% and 15.05%, respectively, for 2004.

	Year Ended December 31,
	2005		2004		2003
Return on Assets	1.42	%	1.25	%	1.29	%
Return on Equity	16.84	%	15.05	%	14.35	%
Dividend Payout Ratio	42.11	%	51.80	%	53.54	%
Equity to Asset Ratio	8.41	%	8.33	%	8.99	%

Proposed Merger of Foothill with and into First Community Bancorp

On December 14, 2005, Foothill and First Community Bancorp (“First Community”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Foothill will be acquired by and merged into First Community. Pursuant to that Merger Agreement, (i) First Community will be the surviving corporation and the Company will cease to exist; and (ii) Foothill’s stockholders will become shareholders of First Community and will receive a number, ranging from between approximately 0.4421 to 0.5685, of a share of First Community common stock, for each of their Foothill shares, with the exact number of First Community shares within that range to be determined on the basis of the average closing price of First Community’s shares for the 15 trading days ending two trading days prior to the consummation of the merger. The average per share closing price of First Community’s shares, for the 15 trading days ended March 14, 2006, was $60.15.

Foothill and First Community entered into the Merger Agreement with the expectation that the Merger would, among other things:

• enable the combined companies to achieve greater cost savings and operating efficiencies.

• provide Foothill’s and First Community’s shareholders with the opportunity to participate in a combined company that would have better future prospects than either of them would be likely to achieve on a stand-alone basis, including a more diversified customer base and, hence, more diversified revenue sources.

• create a more competitive commercial banking institution, particularly in terms of the ability of the combined company to offer a greater range of services and products to its customers and to access financial resources and the capital markets.

Achieving the anticipated benefits of the Merger is subject to a number of uncertainties, including whether the businesses of First Community and Foothill are integrated in an efficient and effective manner, as well as general competitive factors in the marketplace. Failure to achieve these anticipated benefits could result in increased costs, decreases in the amount of expected revenues generated by the combined company and diversion of management’s time and energy and could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects and the trading prices of First Community’s common stock.

The Merger Agreement has been unanimously approved by Foothill’s board of directors and First Community’s board of directors. However, completion of the Merger depends on a number of conditions being met. Those conditions, among others, include: (i) approval of the merger by Foothill’s stockholders and First Community’s shareholders; (ii) the receipt of required bank regulatory approvals without the imposition of materially adverse or harmful restrictions or conditions; (iii) receipt of consents from certain third parties under contracts to which Foothill or the Bank is a party; and (iv) Foothill having an adjusted total stockholders’ equity and allowance for loan losses of not less than a combined $72.7 million as of the last business day of the month immediately preceding closing of the merger. As of December 31, 2005, the sum of Foothill’s stockholders’ equity and allowance for loan losses totaled approximately $75.3 million. It is currently expected that, if the conditions to the Merger are met without any unanticipated delays, consummation of the Merger will take place in the second quarter of 2006. Failure to meet any of the conditions to the Merger could result in a termination of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement permits Foothill’s board of directors to consider and negotiate the terms of any unsolicited proposal to acquire Foothill that might be received from another prospective purchaser at any time prior to the holding of the meeting of Foothill’s stockholders to approve the Merger, if Foothill’s board of directors determines that the proposal is superior, from a financial standpoint, to the Merger. Foothill’s Board also may accept and Foothill may enter into an agreement providing for consummation of the transaction contemplated by such a proposal, provided that Foothill (i) terminates the Merger Agreement with First Community, and (ii) pays a termination fee of $7.05 million to First Community. No such unsolicited proposals have been received by Foothill.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both First Community and Foothill, and further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, such as due to a breach of the Merger Agreement by Foothill or the approval by Foothill’s board of directors of a financially superior third party acquisition proposal, Foothill may be required to pay First Community a termination fee of $7.05 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004

Net Interest Income. The following table sets forth, for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, our interest income and interest expense and our net interest income (in thousands of dollars) and the net yields on average earning assets during those periods:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2005			2004			2003
Total interest income(1)(2)	$	43,523		$	37,456		$	35,993
Total interest expense(3)	$	5,479		$	4,467		$	4,283
Net interest income (1)(2)	$	38,044		$	32,989		$	31,710
Net average earning assets(2)	$	740,995		$	687,238		$	602,457
Net yield on average earning assets(1)(2)(4)		5.1	%		4.8	%		5.3	%
Net yield on average earning assets, excluding loan fees (1) (2)		4.9	%		4.6	%		4.8	%

⁽¹⁾ Interest income includes the effects of tax equivalent adjustments on tax exempt securities and leases using tax rates that approximate 35.5 percent for 2005, 35.6 percent for 2004 and 35.9 percent for 2003. Net yield on average assets excludes loan fees.

⁽²⁾ Loans, net of unearned discount, do not reflect average reserves for possible loan losses of $5,030,000 in 2005, $4,975,000 in 2004 and $4,711,000 in 2003. Loan fees of $1,539,000 in 2005, $1,456,000 in 2004 and $2,581,000 in 2003, are included in interest income. Average loan balances include loans placed on non-accrual status during the periods presented, but interest on such loans has been excluded. There was one non-accruing loan of $113,000 (0.02% of total loans outstanding) at December 31, 2005, one non-accruing loan of $127,000 (0.02% of total loans outstanding) at December 31, 2004, and three non-accruing loans totaling $608,000 (0.1% of total loans outstanding) at December 31, 2003.

⁽³⁾ Includes savings, money market deposit accounts and time certificates of deposit.

⁽⁴⁾ Net yields were determined inclusive of loan fees.

Increase in interest income. The increase in interest income in fiscal 2005 was primarily attributable to the following factors (set forth in the order of their importance in terms of their effect on interest income):

• increases in loan volume;

• increases in interest rates; and

• an increase in loan prepayment fees, due to refinancings of mortgage loans, or mortgage loan payoffs on sales of real properties, by borrowers who chose to take advantage of declining interest rates or increasing property values in our markets.

Although these mortgage loan refinancings and payoffs generated increased fee income that helped to increase our interest income in 2005, they could have the effect of reducing average yields on outstanding loans and, therefore, our

25

net interest margin in future periods, because the loans that were refinanced or repaid generally bore interest at higher rates than the other loans in our loan portfolio.

Increase in interest expense. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to the increase in the rates of interest paid on interest bearing deposits and, to a lesser extent, to the increase in the average volume of interest bearing checking, savings and money market deposits, partially offset by a decline in time deposits which bear higher rates of interest.

Information Regarding Average Interest Earning Assets and Interest Bearing Liabilities. The following table sets forth (i) the average amounts of and the average interest rates charged on our interest earning assets and (ii) the average amounts of and the average interest rates paid on our interest bearing liabilities.

Net Interest Margin, Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk.

Net Interest Margin and Rate Sensitivity. Net interest margin, which is tax adjusted net interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest earning assets, is a principal determinant of net interest income.

26

Like other banking organizations, our net interest margin is affected by a number of factors, including the relative percentages or the “mix” of:

• our assets, between loans, on the one hand, on which we are able to obtain higher rates of interest, and investment securities, federal funds sold and funds held in interest-bearing deposits with other financial institutions, on the other hand, on which yields generally are lower;

• variable and fixed rate loans in the loan portfolio; and

• demand, savings and money market deposits, on the one hand, and higher priced time deposits, on the other hand.

Impact of Changes in the Mix of Earning Assets and in the Mix of Interest Bearing Liabilities. The increase in net interest income in 2005 was due primarily to (i) an increase in the average volume of our outstanding loans, which we believe was attributable principally to marketing programs conducted in 2005, (ii) an increase in the average volume of investment securities, funded, in part, from reductions in other, lower yielding, earning assets, (iii) increases in yields earned on loans and investment securities, and (iv) a reduction in the volume of our higher-priced time deposits that resulted from a decision we made to allow some of those deposits to “run off” rather than to seek their renewal.

The following table sets forth changes in interest earned, including loan fees, and interest paid in each of the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the extent to which those changes were attributable to changes in the volume or changes in the mix of interest-earning assets and changes in the volume or changes in the mix of interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in interest earned and interest paid due both to rate and volume changes have been allocated to the change due to volume and the change due to rate in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the changes in each category.

⁽¹⁾ Interest income includes the effects of tax equivalent adjustments on tax exempt securities, loans and leases using tax rates which approximate 35.5% for 2005 and 35.6% for 2004.

⁽²⁾ Includes an increase in loan fees of $84,000 in 2005 and a decrease in loan fees of $1,126,000 in 2004.

⁽³⁾ Long term borrowings in 2005, 2004 and 2003 consist of junior subordinated debentures issued in December 2002. Those debentures mature in 30 years and bear interest at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR (London

27

Inter Bank Offered Rate) rate plus 3.25% The interest rate on those borrowings in effect at December 31, 2005 was 7.77%.

Impact on Net Interest Margins of the Mix of Fixed and Variable Rate Loans. As a general rule, in an interest rate environment characterized by declining market rates of interest, which occurred during the period from 2001 to mid-2004, a bank with a relatively high percentage of variable rate loans would experience a decline in net interest margins because such loans would have “repriced” automatically when market rates of interest declined. By contrast, as a general rule, a bank with a large proportion of fixed rates loans would have experienced an increase in net interest margins, because (i) the interest rates on those fixed rate loans would not have declined in response to declines in market rates of interest (although such declines might eventually have resulted in early prepayments of some of those loans by borrowers seeking to refinance at lower rates of interest), and (ii) the interest paid on its deposits would have declined. In a period of increasing interest rates, such as has occurred during the period from July 2004 to the present, however, the interest margin of banks with a high proportion of fixed rate loans generally will suffer because they will be unable to “reprice” those loans to fully offset the increase in the rates of interest they must offer to retain maturing time deposits and attract new deposits. A bank with a higher proportion of variable loans in an environment of increasing market rates of interest will, on the other hand, generally be able to offset more fully the impact of rising rates of interest on the amounts they must pay to retain existing and attract new deposits.

The following table sets forth the maturities of our loans, and the mix of fixed and variable rate loans, as of December 31, 2005 (in thousands):

	Maturing
	Within One Year		One to Five Years		After Five Years		Total
Total fixed rate loans	$	9,087	$	41,638	$	333,865	$	384,590
Total variable rate loans		33,223		26,105		109,359		168,687
Total	$	42,310	$	67,743	$	443,224	$	553,277

Impact on Net Interest Margins of the Mix of Demand, Savings and Time Deposits. In a period of declining market rates of interest, all other things being equal, a bank with a greater proportion of demand, savings and money market deposit accounts (“core deposits”), as compared to time deposits, is likely to have, at least for the short term, a higher interest margin than a bank with a greater proportion of time deposits. A bank with a higher proportion of time deposits must wait for its time deposits to mature before it can implement reductions in the rates of interest it must pay on those deposits in response to declining market rates of interest. By contrast, such reductions can be implemented more quickly on savings and money market deposits. In a period of increasing market rates of interest, all other things being equal, a bank with a higher proportion of time deposits will generally have, at least for the short term, a higher interest margin than a bank with a higher proportion of savings deposits and a lower proportion of time deposits, because a bank need not increase the interest it pays on its time deposits until they mature, while it will usually have to increase its interest rates on savings and money market deposits to be able to retain them in response to increasing market rates of interest and competition from other depository institutions.

The average amounts (in thousands) of and the average rates paid on our deposits, by type, in the year ended December 31, 2005 are summarized below:

	Year Ended December 31, 2005
	Average Balance		Average Rate
Noninterest bearing demand deposits	$	278,167	0.0	%
Savings Deposits(1)		361,271	1.0	%
Time Deposits(2)		69,167	1.6	%
Total Deposits	$	708,605	0.7	%

Market Risk and Net Interest Margin in 2005 and 2004. As demonstrated by the impact of the reductions in market rates of interest during the three year period that ended in July 2004, our net interest margin and, therefore, our net interest income and net earnings are affected by changes in market rates of interest (which we sometimes refer to as “market risk”). We attempt to reduce our exposure to market risk associated with interest rate fluctuations by seeking (i) to attract and maintain a significant volume of demand and savings deposits that are not as sensitive to interest rate fluctuations or as costly as are time deposits, (ii) to match opportunities to “reprice” interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in response to changes in market rates of interest, and (iii) to change the mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in a manner that is designed to achieve increases in net interest income.

28

In an effort to counteract the downward pressure on net interest margin, during the past year we have (i) continued sales and marketing programs that are designed to increase the volume of our loans, on which yields are higher than other earning assets, (ii) continued marketing programs designed to attract lower cost and less volatile core deposits while allowing higher priced deposits to “run-off,” in order to reduce our interest expense; and (iii) continued a loan repricing policy, first implemented in 2003, which places an interest rate “floor,” currently at 4.59%, that is applicable to all new variable interest rate loans that we make. There is also an interest “cap” on these loans, which is currently at 8.99%.

As a result of these measures, at December 31, 2005:

• the volume of outstanding loans was $47.0 million, or 9.3%, greater than at December 31, 2004;

• the volume of demand and savings deposits was $15.5 million, or 3.6%, greater than at December 31, 2004,

• the volume of demand, savings and money market deposits represented 91% of total deposits as compared to 89% at December 31, 2004; and

• time deposits (including those in denominations of $100,000 or more) represented 9%, of total deposits, as compared to 11% at December 31, 2004.

Because of these measures, our net interest margin (that is, tax-adjusted net interest income stated as a percentage of average interest-earning assets) was 5.14% for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to 4.80% for the year ended December 31, 2004. That increase was primarily due to the increases in market rates of interest during 2005. We believe that our net interest margin continues to exceed the average net interest margin for California-based, publicly traded banks and bank holding companies with assets ranging from $500 million-to-$1 billion (Peer Group Banks), primarily because we have been able to maintain the ratio of demand and savings deposits to total deposits at a higher level than that of the Peer Group Banks and to increase the volume of our loans which generate higher yields than do our other interest earning assets.

The ability to maintain our net interest margin is not entirely within our control, however, because the interest rates we are able to charge on loans and the interest rates we must offer to maintain and attract deposits are affected by national monetary policies established and implemented by the Federal Reserve Board and by competitive conditions in our service areas.

Moreover, the effect on a bank’s net interest margin of changes in market rates of interest is affected by the types and maturities of its earning assets and deposits. For example, a bank with a relatively high percentage of fixed rate loans will often encounter an increase in prepayments of those loans during periods characterized by declining market rates of interest, thereby offsetting the potential positive impact of the fixed rate loans on net interest margins. Additionally, a change in interest rates paid on deposits in response to changes in market rates of interest can be implemented more quickly in the case of savings deposits and money market accounts than with respect to time deposits as to which a change in interest rates generally cannot be implemented until such deposits mature. Also, a change in rates of interest paid on deposits can and often does lead consumers to move their deposits from one type of deposit to another or to shift funds from deposits to non-bank investments or from such investments to bank deposit accounts or instruments, which will affect a bank’s net interest margin.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses. Like virtually all banking organizations, we follow the practice of maintaining an allowance or a reserve (the Loan Loss Reserve) for possible losses on loans and leases that occur from time to time as an incidental part of the banking business. When it is determined that payment in full of a loan has become unlikely, the carrying value of the loan is reduced to what we estimate is its realizable value. This reduction, which is referred to as a loan “charge-off” or “write-down,” is charged against and, to that extent, reduces the amount of our Loan Loss Reserve. We also periodically increase the Loan Loss Reserve (i) to replenish that Reserve after it has been reduced due to loan charge-offs, (ii) to reflect changes in the volume of our outstanding loans, and (iii) to take account of increases in the risk of potential losses, which can occur due to a deterioration in the condition of borrowers or in the value of the property or other assets securing non-performing loans, or due to adverse changes in national or local economic conditions. Those increases and additions are made through a charge against income referred to as the “provision for loan and lease losses.” Recoveries of loans previously charged-off are added back to and, to that extent, increase the Loan Loss Reserve and, therefore, may reduce the amount of the provision that we would need to make to maintain the Loan Loss Reserve at a level that we believe to be adequate.

29

We employ economic models that are based on bank regulatory guidelines, industry standards and historical experience, to evaluate and determine the adequacy of our Loan Loss Reserve and, therefore, also the amount of the provision that we make for potential loan losses. However, those determinations involve judgments or forecasts about existing economic trends and future economic and market conditions, and about the impact those trends and conditions may have on the ability of borrowers to repay their loans. Those judgments and forecasts are subject to risks and uncertainties over which we have no control. As a result, actual trends or future conditions and their effects on the performance of our loan portfolio may differ, possibly significantly, from those anticipated by us at the time we make judgments about the adequacy of our Loan Loss Reserve and the need to make additional provisions for potential loan losses. Additionally, the actual performance of our portfolio of loans in the future also can be affected by unanticipated events or conditions that might affect our particular service areas, such as earthquakes or other natural disasters. See the discussion of “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this report and under the caption “Critical Accounting Policies” above in this Item 7. If conditions or circumstances change from those that were expected at the time those judgments or forecasts were made, it could become necessary to increase the Loan Loss Reserve by making additional provisions for loan losses that would adversely affect our operating results. Additionally, to the extent those conditions or events were to result in loan charge-offs, the total amount of our reported loans would decline as well.

One circumstance that could affect the adequacy of our Loan Loss Reserve would be an adverse change in the financial condition of some of our borrowers. As a result, we review trends in loan delinquencies and in non-accrual loans as one of the indicators of the financial condition of our borrowers. An increase in loan delinquencies or non-accrual loans would indicate that some of our borrowers are encountering financial difficulties; while a decline in loan delinquencies and, particularly in non-accrual loans, would suggest that borrowers are not encountering such financial problems.

The following table sets forth an analysis of our loan loss experience, by category, for the past three years (with dollars in thousands).

We decided not to make any provisions for potential loan losses during 2005 or 2004. That decision, in both 2005 and 2004, was based on our review of the quality of our loans, our historical loan loss experience in the prior two years during which loan losses were immaterial despite difficult economic conditions, and our forecasts of economic and market trends, all of which led us to conclude that our Loan Loss Reserve remained adequate to cover possible future loan losses. At December 31, 2005 the Loan Loss Reserve was approximately $5,062,000 or 0.91% of total loans and leases outstanding, compared to approximately $5,016,000 or 1.00% of total loans and leases outstanding at December 31, 2004.

At December 31, 2005, non-performing loans (which consist primarily of loans for which there have been no payments of principal or interest for more than 90 days) totaled $113,000, or 0.02% of total loans then outstanding, compared to $127,000, or 0.02%, of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2004 and $608,000, or 0.1% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2003. As a result of that improvement, the ratio of our Loan Loss Reserve to non-performing loans improved to 4,479.6% at December 31, 2005, as compared to 3,949.61% and 813.65% at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Non-Interest Income. The following table identifies the components of and the percentage changes in non-interest income in 2005 as compared to 2004.

	Year Ended December 31,				% Increase (Decrease)
	2005		2004		2005 vs. 2004
	(Dollars in thousands)
Non–Interest Income
Services fees	$	4,166	$	4,999	(16.7	)%
Gain on sale of SBA loans		13		5	160.0	%
Other		955		581	64.4	%
	$	5,134	$	5,585	(8.1	)%

The decrease in non-interest income was primarily attributable to decreases in transaction fees and service charges collected on deposits and other banking transactions as compared to 2004. These decreases in fees were primarily attributable to increases in deposit balances maintained with us by our customers because, as a general rule, the deposit and some of the service fees we charge decline as deposit balances increase. Additionally, we experienced a decline in the number of checks returned to us for insufficient funds, which resulted in a decrease in fees charged customers when their checks are returned for this reason. We believe that this decline also was due to the increases in checking account deposit balances and improved economic conditions in our markets.

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense (also sometimes referred to as “other expense”) consists primarily of (i) salaries and other employee expenses, (ii) occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses, and (iii) other operating and miscellaneous expenses, such as insurance premiums, marketing expenses, data processing costs, professional fees and provisions made to establish contingency reserves.

In order to attract a higher volume of non-interest bearing demand and lower cost savings and money market deposits as a means of maintaining the Bank’s net interest margin, it has been our policy to provide a higher level of personal service to our customers than the level of service that is typically provided by many of our competitors. As a result, we have more banking personnel than many of our competitors of comparable size, which is reflected in our non-interest expense. However, we believe that this higher level of service has helped us to retain our existing deposit customers and attract new customers, which has enabled us to achieve an average net interest margin that exceeds the average net interest margin of the banks in our Peer Group.

Set forth below is information regarding non-interest expense incurred by us in the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004:

	Year Ended December 31,						% Increase (Decrease)
	2005			2004			2005 vs. 2004
	(Dollars in thousands)
Non Interest Expenses
Salaries and employee benefits	$	11,705		$	11,697		0.1	%
Net occupancy expense of premises		2,710			2,631		3.0	%
Furniture and equipment expenses		1,707			1,665		2.5	%
Other expenses		9,150			7,617		20.1	%
	$	25,272		$	23,610		7.0	%
Efficiency Ratio		59.3	%		63.0	%

31

As the table above indicates, non-interest expense increased by $1.7 million, or 7.0%, in 2005, as compared to 2004. However, our net interest income increased by nearly $5.1 million, or 15.6%, in 2005 and, as a result, we were able to improve our efficiency ratio to 59.3% in 2005 from 63.0% in 2004. The efficiency ratio is, basically, the ratio of non-interest expense (adjusted to exclude non-recurring expenses) to the sum of net interest income and non-interest income (as adjusted to exclude any non-recurring income).

Income Taxes. The following table sets forth comparative information regarding the provisions that we made for income taxes and our effective income tax rates for the periods ended December 31, 2005 2004 and 2003, respectively:

	2005			2004			2003
Income before income taxes	$	17,498		$	14,538		$	13,147
Provision for income taxes	$	6,212		$	5,183		$	4,726
Effective tax rate		35.5	%		35.7	%		36.0	%

The increase in the provision for income taxes was primarily the result of the increases in our pre-tax income. As discussed above, under the caption “Critical Accounting Policies” our effective income tax rates reflect the beneficial impact of our ability to use certain income tax benefits available under state and federal income tax laws.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total Assets. Our total assets increased during 2005 by approximately $11.8 million, or 1.5%, to $798.7 million at December 31, 2005 from $789.9 million at December 31, 2004. Contributing to the growth of our assets in 2005 was an increase of $47.0 million, or 9.3%, in outstanding loans. That increase was funded primarily by a decrease of $15.1 million, or 7.8%, in our investment portfolio late in 2005 and a decrease of $23.4 million, or 80.1%, in federal funds sold.

The following tale sets forth the dollar amounts (in thousands) of our interest earning assets at December 31:

⁽²⁾ The terms of the restructured loans did not involve any interest deferrals, and the amounts of interest collected in 2003, 2002, and 2001 were those required to have been paid in accordance with the original terms of those loans.

⁽³⁾ There was one loan on non-accrual status at December 31, 2005, one loan on non-accrual status at December 31, 2004, three loans at December 31, 2003, four loans at December 31, 2002, and six loans at December 31, 2001. The interest amounts that would have been collected on these loans had they remained current in accordance with their original terms were $-0- in 2005 and 2004, $90,000 in 2003, $117,000 in 2002, and $197,000 in 2001.

Deposits. During 2005 we again conducted programs that enabled us to increase deposits to provide additional funds that we used to grow our loan portfolio. Set forth below are the average amounts (in thousands of dollars) of, and the average rates paid on, deposits in each of the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003:

	Year Ended December 31,

As indicated in the above table, in 2005 the average volume of deposits increased by $38.1 million, or 5.7%, as compared to the volume of deposits in 2004. Contributing to that increase was an increase of $39.7 million, or 6.6%, in the volume of our average core deposits, made up of demand deposits, which do not bear interest, and savings and money market deposits, on which we pay lower rates of interests than on time deposits. At the same time, during 2005 we reduced the average volume of time deposits (including those in denominations of $100,000 or more) by $1.6 million, or 2.3%. As a result, our core demand, savings and money market deposits represented 91.0% of total deposits at the end of 2005 as compared to 89.0% at the end of 2004, with time deposits (including those in denominations of $100,000 or more) representing 9.0% of total deposits in 2005 as compared to 11.0% in 2004.

Liquidity Management. We have established liquidity management policies which are designed to achieve a matching of sources and uses of funds in order to enable us to fund our customers’ requirements for loans and for deposit withdrawals. In accordance with those policies, we maintain a number of short-term sources of funds to meet periodic increases in loan demand and deposit withdrawals and maturities. At December 31, 2005, the principal sources of liquidity consisted of $32.2 million in cash and demand balances due from other banks and $5.5 million of Federal funds sold which, together, totaled $37.7 million. Other sources of liquidity include $162.9 million in securities available for sale, of which approximately $38.8 million mature within one year; $1.8 million in securities held to maturity which mature within one year; and $1.3 million in interest-bearing deposits at other financial institutions, which mature in 6 months or less. In addition, substantially all of the Bank’s installment loans and leases, the amount of which aggregated $1.5 million at December 31, 2005, require regular installment payments from customers, providing us with a steady flow of internally generated cash.

We also have a revolving line of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank, under which available borrowings totaled $47.5 million, and outstanding short-term borrowings by us totaled $42.0 million, as of December 31, 2005. As of March 14, 2006, those outstanding borrowings had been reduced to $10.0 million. We also have obtained an increase in the line of credit to $75,654,000. Borrowings under that credit line are secured by a pledge of some of our outstanding loans.

We also have established loan facilities that would enable us to borrow up to $18 million of Federal funds from other banks and we have an account with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco that will also allow us to borrow at its discount window should the need arise. Finally, if necessary, we could obtain additional cash by selling time certificates of deposit into the “CD” market. However, as a general rule, it has been and continues to be our policy to make use of borrowings under the line of credit or loan facilities to fund short-term cash requirements, before selling securities or reducing deposit balances at other banks and before selling time certificates of deposit.

Cash Flows.

Net Cash Provided by Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2005 operations generated net cash of $11.2 million as compared to $9.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was primarily attributable to a $6.0 million increase in interest and fee income generated by our interest-earning assets, partially offset by $3.1 million in cash outflows from operations, principally interest paid on interest-bearing deposits and cash paid to fund employee compensation expense and accounts payable.

Net Cash Used in Investment Activities. In 2005, we used cash of approximately $27.9 million for investment activities, consisting primarily of increases in loan volume, that were funded primarily by sales of lower yielding held-for-sale securities, funds from short-term borrowings, and decreases in the amount of deposits held at other banks.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities. In 2005, financing activities provided cash of $42.0 million, consisting primarily of short-term borrowing and, to a much lesser extent, proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options, which was substantially offset by a $36.2 million decrease in deposits, resulting in net cash from financing activities of $1.9 million. By comparison, financing activities, consisting primarily of an $97.1 million increase in deposits, generated net cash of $92.3 million in 2004.

Contractual Obligations.

Set forth below is information regarding our material contractual obligations as of December 31, 2005:

Operating Lease Obligations. As of December 31, 2005, the amounts of our future minimum payment obligations (stated in thousands) under real property and equipment leases were:

Year:	Amount
2006	$	1,173
2007		1,109
2008		974
2009		907
2010		609
Thereafter		1,740
Total	$	6,512

Maturing Time Certificates Of Deposits. Set forth below is a maturity schedule, as of December 31, 2005, of domestic time certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more (with amounts stated in thousands):

	At December 31, 2005
Three Months or Less	$	23,503
Over Three through Six Months		3,874
Over Six through Twelve Months		3,796
Over Twelve Months		1,139
Total	$	32,312

Based on our historical experience, we believe that at least 80% of these time certificates of deposit will be renewed by depositors, unless we decide to reduce the volume of such deposits by reducing the interest rates we will pay to maintain them.

Junior Subordinated Debentures. Pursuant to rulings of the Federal Reserve Board, bank holding companies have been permitted to issue long term subordinated debt instruments that will, subject to certain conditions, qualify as, and augment, capital for regulatory purposes. Pursuant to those rulings, in December of 2002 we established a grantor trust, of which we own all of the common securities, and that grantor trust issued and sold $8,000,000 of trust preferred securities to an institutional investor as part of a pooled securitization transaction by that investor. The net proceed from the sale of the trust preferred securities were paid to us in exchange for our issuance to the trust of $8,248,000 principal amount of floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures due in 2032 (the “Debentures”). The payment terms of the Junior Subordinated Debentures correspond to the payment terms of the trust preferred securities and payments on the Debentures have been and in the future will be used to make payments that come due to the institutional investor on the trust preferred securities. The Debentures also have been pledged as security for the payment of the amounts due in respect of the trust preferred securities.

The Debentures are subordinated to all of our existing and future borrowings and mature on December 26, 2032; but are redeemable, at par, at our option beginning December 26, 2007. We are required to make quarterly interest payments on these Debentures at an interest rate which, as of December 26, 2005, was 3.25% above the three-month LIBOR Rate (London Inter Bank Offered Rate). The interest rate resets quarterly and the interest rate on the Debentures for the three-month period ending March 25, 2006 is 7.77%.

Until December 2003, we consolidated the trust into our consolidated financial statements and in accordance with a ruling issued by the Federal Reserve Board, reported the net amount of the trust preferred securities it had issued as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes. In accordance with FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51,” which was adopted and became effective on December 31, 2003, we have ceased consolidating the trust into our consolidated financial statements. The adoption of FIN No. 46 created uncertainty for us, as well as other bank holding companies that had issued similar debentures, as to whether the Debentures would continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital, because we could no longer consolidate the trust into our consolidated financial statements. However, on February 28, 2005, the Federal Reserve Board issued a new rule which provides that, notwithstanding the deconsolidation of such trusts, junior subordinated debentures, such as those issued by

35

us, may continue to constitute up to 25% of a bank holding company’s Tier 1 capital, subject to certain new limitations which will not become effective until March 31, 2009 and which, in any event, are not expected to affect the treatment of the Company’s Debentures as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes.

During the second quarter of 2003, we used $4 million of the net proceeds from the issuance of the Debentures to purchase Bank-owned life insurance policies on key management employees of the Bank, with the Bank as the beneficiary under such policies. The purposes of bank-owned life insurance (commonly known in the banking industry as “BOLI”) are (i) to enable the Bank to offer employee retirement and benefit plans designed to attract and retain key management employees, by providing the Bank with a source of funds (primarily from the cash surrender value of such policies) that the Bank can use to pay benefits under those plans, and (ii) to protect the Bank against the costs or losses that could occur as a result of the death of any key management employee. The remainder of the proceeds from the issuance of the Debentures will be used to fund the continued growth of the Bank and may also be used to repurchase our common stock under our stock repurchase plan.

Deferred Compensation Obligations. We maintain a nonqualified, unfunded deferred compensation plan for certain key management personnel. Under this plan, participating management employees may defer compensation, in return for which those employees will receive certain payments upon retirement, death, or disability, consisting of payments for 10 years commencing upon retirement or reduced benefits upon early retirement, disability, or termination of employment. At December 31, 2005, our aggregate payment obligations under this plan totaled $4.5 million. Based on the age of the participants in this plan, it is our current expectation that this amount would be paid over a period that should range from the year 2006 to the year 2021. In order to provide funds to pay these benefits, we purchased life insurance policies on the participants in this plan, the cash surrender values or death benefits of which are designed to cover the payments that we will become obligated to make to plan participants.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. We maintain a nonqualified, unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan for certain key management personnel. Under this plan, participating employees are eligible to receive 40% of their final average monthly salary upon reaching 65 years of age and completing 10 years of service with the Bank. This plan provides for payments for 15 years commencing upon retirement. At December 31, 2005, our aggregate payment obligations under this plan totaled $8.3 million. Based on the age of the participants in this plan, it is our current expectation that this amount would be paid over a period that should range from 2010 to 2049. In order to provide funds to pay these benefits, we have purchased life insurance policies on a group of employees of the Bank, the cash surrender values or death benefits of which are designed to cover the payments that we will become obligated to make to plan participants.

Loan Commitments and Standby Letters of Credit. In the ordinary course of business we make commitments to extend credit and issue standby commercial letters of credit to or for our customers. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, contractual commitments to extend credit to customers totaled $69.2 million and $53.9 million, respectively, and obligations under standby letters of credit totaled $1.1 and $3.0 million, respectively, at the end of each of those years.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and the customer may be required to pay a fee and meet other conditions in order to draw on those commitments or standby letters of credit. We expect, based on historical experience, that many of the commitments will expire without being drawn upon and, therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

To varying degrees, commitments to extend credit involve elements of credit and interest rate risk for us that are in excess of the amounts recognized in our balance sheet. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customers to whom such commitments are made is equal to the amount of those commitments. As a result, before making such a commitment to a customer, we evaluate the customer’s creditworthiness using the same underwriting standards that we would apply when deciding whether or not to approve loans to the customer. In addition, we often require the customer to secure its payment obligations for amounts drawn on such commitments with collateral such as accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, income-producing commercial properties, residential properties or properties under construction.

A standby letter of credit is a conditional commitment issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to customers.

36

We believe that our cash and cash equivalent resources, together with available borrowings under our line of credit and credit facilities, will be sufficient to enable us to meet any increases in demand for loans and leases or in the utilization of outstanding loan commitments or standby letters of credit and any increase in deposit withdrawals that might occur in the foreseeable future.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND DIVIDENDS

It has been and continues to be the objective of our Board of Directors to retain earnings that are needed to meet capital requirements under applicable government regulations and to support the continuing growth of our banking franchise. At the same time, it is the policy of the Board of Directors to pay cash dividends if earnings exceed the amounts the Board deems to be necessary to meet that objective. Pursuant to that policy, we have paid regular quarterly cash dividends to our stockholders since September of 1999 and, in January of 2006, the Board of Directors declared a $0.15 per share cash dividend, which was the 26th consecutive quarterly cash dividend declared since the current dividend policy was adopted. We expect that, if our Merger with and into First Community Bancorp is consummated in the second quarter of 2006, we will not pay any further cash dividends.

Stock Repurchase Program. In January of 2003 the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program that provided for us to repurchase up to $5,000,000 of its common stock. Repurchases may be made from time-to-time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions when opportunities to do so at favorable prices present themselves, in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines. As of December 31, 2005, we had repurchased a total of 155,141 shares of our common stock under this program for an aggregate price of approximately $2,985,000. We ceased repurchases of shares under this program in December 2005, at the time we first announced Foothill’s planned merger with and into First Community Bancorp.

Regulatory Capital Requirements. Federal banking agencies require United States based bank holding companies (on a consolidated basis) and FDIC-insured banks (on a stand-alone basis) to maintain a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-adjusted assets of 8% and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital (essentially, the sum of a bank’s capital stock and retained earnings, less any intangibles)-to-risk-adjusted assets of 4%. In addition to the risked-based guidelines, federal banking regulators require banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital to total average assets, (which is referred to as a bank’s “leverage ratio”). For these purposes, subordinated indebtedness issued in connection with a sale of trust preferred securities may comprise up to 25% of a banking organization’s Tier 1 capital and, to the extent such indebtedness exceeds that limitation, such indebtedness will constitute Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. All of the subordinated indebtedness evidenced by the Junior Subordinated Debentures that we issued in December 2002 qualifies as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board regulations.

The federal banking agencies have adopted uniform capital requirements for the banks that they supervise and assign each of those banks to one of the following five categories based on their respective capital ratios:

• well capitalized;

• adequately capitalized;

• undercapitalized;

• significantly undercapitalized; and

• critically undercapitalized

As a general rule, banks that are categorized as “well capitalized” are subject to less stringent supervision by their federal regulatory agencies than are banks that are classified in one of the other categories; and at each successive lower capital category, a bank is subject to greater operating restrictions and increased regulatory supervision.

For a banking organization rated in the highest of these five categories of capital adequacy, the minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets must be 5%. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and leverage ratios that apply across the industry, federal and state bank regulatory agencies have the discretion to set minimum capital requirements for specific banking institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios and encourage banks to maintain their ratios above those minimums as a matter of prudent banking practices.

The risk-based capital ratio is determined by weighting a bank’s assets in accordance with certain risk factors and, the higher the risk profile of the assets, the greater is the amount of capital that is required in order to maintain an adequate risk-based capital ratio, which generally is at least 8%.

37

Set forth below are the minimum capital ratios that a bank must meet to be categorized as adequately capitalized and well capitalized, respectively, and the corresponding capital ratios of the Bank at December 31, 2005. The Bank has been categorized as a “well capitalized” institution by its primary federal banking agency and its Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios exceed minimum regulatory requirements and compare favorably with those of the banks and bank holding companies in its Peer Group.

	To be Categorized by a Federal Bank Regulatory Agency as:				Foothill Independent Bank
	Adequately Capitalized		Well Capitalized		Actual
Total Capital to Risk Weighted Assets	8.0	%	10.0	%	13.6	%
Tier 1 Capital to Risk Weighted Assets	4.0	%	6.0	%	12.7	%
Tier 1 Capital to Average Assets (“Leverage Ratio”)	4.0	%	5.0	%	10.1	%

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss to future earnings, to fair values of assets or to future cash flows that may result from changes in the price or value of financial instruments. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates and other market conditions. Market risk is attributed to all market risk sensitive financial instruments, including loans and investment securities, deposits and borrowings. We do not engage in trading activities or participate in foreign currency transactions for our own account. Accordingly, our exposure to market risk is primarily a function of our asset and liability management activities and of changes in market rates of interest that can cause or require increases in the rates we pay on deposits that may take effect more rapidly or may be greater than the increases in the interest rates we are able to charge on loans and the yields that we can realize on our investments. The extent of that market risk depends on a number of variables, including the sensitivity of our interest earning assets and our deposits to changes in market interest rates and the maturities.

The following table sets forth information concerning the interest rate sensitivity of our consolidated assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2005. Assets and liabilities are classified by the earliest possible repricing date or maturity, whichever comes first.

Cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap	$	(254,688	)	$	(221,566	)	$	(83,453	)	$	275,927	$	—		$	—

38

Generally, where rate-sensitive assets (principally loans, investment securities and other interest earning assets) exceed rate-sensitive liabilities (principally interest bearing deposits), net interest margin will be positively impacted during periods of increasing interest rates and negatively impacted during periods of decreasing interest rates. When rate-sensitive liabilities exceed rate-sensitive assets, the net interest margin generally will be negatively affected during periods of increasing interest rates and positively affected during periods of decreasing interest rates.

As of December 31, 2005, our rate sensitive balance sheet was shown to be in a negative three-month gap position because our rate sensitive liabilities exceeded our rate sensitive assets for that period. This implies that our net interest margin would decrease in the short–term if interest rates were to rise and would increase in the short–term if interest rates were to fall. However, the extent to which our net interest margin will be impacted by changes in prevailing interests rates will depend on a number of factors, including how quickly rate sensitive assets and liabilities react to changes in interest rates, which will depend on a number of factors, including the mix of interest earning assets between loans, on the one hand, and other earning assets, on the other hand, and the mix of core and time certificates of deposit and the actions we take, in terms of changing the mix of our interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in response to changes in the interest rate environment. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION – RESULTS OF OPERATION— Net Interest Margin, Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk”

We use a dynamic simulation model to forecast the anticipated impact of changes in market interest rates on our net interest income. That model is used to assist management in evaluating, and in determining and adjusting strategies designed to reduce, our exposure to these market risks, which may include, for example, changing the mix of earning assets or interest-bearing deposits.

	Estimated Net Interest Income Sensitivity		Market Value
Simulated Rate Changes			Assets		Liabilities
			(Dollars in thousands)
+100 basis points	(5.13	)%	$	750,417	$	538,575
+300 basis points	(15.56	)%	$	717,473	$	527,738
-100 basis points	4.32	%	$	786,724	$	554,410
-300 basis points	(0.33	)%	$	827,582	$	578,534

As is the case with the interest rate gap analysis, this model provides a “snap-shot” of what impact changes in interest rates would have on our net interest income, assuming all other conditions remained unchanged, and does not take into account actions that management would take in response to market trends indicating either that interest rates will be increasing or will be decreasing.

Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiaries

Glendora, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations, changes in its stockholders’ equity, and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have also audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 14, 2006, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004, AND 2003

Note #1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Foothill Independent Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Foothill Independent Bank (the “Bank”), and Foothill BPC, Inc., collectively referred to herein as the “Company.” Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Investment in Nonconsolidated Subsidiary

The Company accounts for its investment in its wholly owned special purpose entity, Foothill Independent Statutory Trust I, using the equity method under which the subsidiary’s net earnings are recognized in the Bancorp’s statement of income, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.”

Nature of Operations

We operate in a single operating segment, consisting of commercial banking operations, that are conducted from twelve branch banking offices in various locations in the Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties of Southern California. Our primary sources of revenue are interest income and fees paid to us on loans made to customers, who are predominately small and middle market businesses and individuals, interest earned on investment securities and service fees paid by customers on banking transactions with us.

Foothill BPC, Inc. is an entity that owns or holds leasehold interests in certain of our branch banking offices and leases or subleases those offices to the Bank.

On December 18, 2000, the Company formed Platinum Results, Inc., as a California corporation and data processing subsidiary of the Company. As of December 31, 2003, Platinum Results, Inc. was dissolved.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and 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. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses (See Note #5), the valuation of foreclosed real estate (See Note #7) and deferred tax assets (See Note #17).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, due from banks, Federal funds sold, and overnight repurchase agreements. Generally, Federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Cash and Due From Banks

Banking regulations require that all banks maintain a percentage of their deposits as reserves in cash or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. We were in compliance with the reserve requirements as of December 31, 2005.

Investment Securities

Securities held-to-maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts over the period to maturity, or to an earlier call, if appropriate, on a straight-line basis. Such securities include those that management intends and has the ability to hold into the foreseeable future.

DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004, AND 2003

Note #1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

Securities are considered available-for-sale if they would be sold in response to certain conditions, such as changes in interest rates, fluctuations in deposit levels or loan demand, or need to restructure the portfolio to better match the maturity or interest rate characteristics of liabilities with assets. Securities classified as available-for-sale are accounted for at their current fair value rather than amortized historical cost. Unrealized gains or losses are excluded from net income and reported as an amount net of taxes as a separate component of other comprehensive income included in shareholders’ equity. (See Note #2).

Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers, among other things, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

Loans and Interest on Loans

Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, net of deferred loan fees and unearned discounts. The Bank recognizes loan origination fees as income to the extent those fees represent reimbursement for initial direct costs incurred at the time of loan boarding. The excess of fees over costs, if any, is deferred and recognized as an adjustment to yield of the loan (See Note #3).

The accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to make all payments due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received.

A non-accrual loan would be restored to an accrual status when all of its principal or interest has been brought current by the borrower and the future collection of principal and interest is no longer being seriously questioned, or when the loan otherwise becomes well secured and in the process of collection.

If the collection of any loan becomes sufficiently questionable that we can no longer justify inclusion of the loan in our assets on our balance sheet, it will be charged off. We determine whether a loan should be charged off, by analyzing the possible sources of repayment, including (i) the potential future cash flow available for payment of principal of and interest on the loan, (ii) the value of the collateral securing the loan, and (3) the financial strength of any co-makers or guarantors. If we conclude that those sources of repayment do not provide a reasonable probability that the loan can be collected, it will be charged off.

For impairment recognized in accordance with FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,” as amended by SFAS No. 118, the entire change in the present value of expected cash flows of the impaired loan is reported as either provision for loan losses in the same manner in which impairment initially was recognized, or as reduction in the amount of provision for loan losses that otherwise would be reported (See Note #5).

When measuring impairment with respect to any loan the payment of which will be dependent on the sale of the collateral securing the loan, we consider the estimated costs of selling the collateral on a discounted basis in measuring the amount of the impairment.

Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to expense and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions (See Note #5).

DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004, AND 2003

Note #1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

Direct Lease Financing

The investment in lease contracts is recorded using the finance method of accounting. Under the finance method, an asset is recorded in the amount of the total lease payments receivable and estimated residual value, reduced by unearned income. Income, represented by the excess of the total receivable over the cost of the related asset, is recorded in income in decreasing amounts over the term of the contract based upon the principal amount outstanding. The financing lease portfolio consists of equipment leases with terms from three to seven years.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, which ranges from 3 to 10 years for furniture and fixtures and 20 to 30 years for buildings. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the remaining lease term, whichever is shorter. Expenditures for improvements or major repairs are capitalized and those for ordinary repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred (See Note #6).

Other Real Estate Owned

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure (commonly known as “other real estate owned” or “OREO”) are initially recorded at the lower of fair value or cost less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the real estate is carried at the lower of cost or fair value minus estimated costs to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and additions to the valuation allowance are included in other expenses (See Note #7).

Loan Sales and Servicing

Gains and losses from the sale of participating interests in loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) are recognized based on the premium received or discount paid and the cost basis of the portion of the loan sold. The cost basis of the portion of the loan sold was arrived at by allocating the total cost of each loan between the guaranteed portion of the loan sold and the unguaranteed portion of the loan retained, based on their relative fair values. The book value allocated to the unguaranteed portion of the loan, if less than the principal amount, is recorded as a discount on the principal amount retained. The discount is accreted to interest income over the remaining estimated life of the loan. We retain the servicing on the portion of the loans sold and recognize income on the servicing fees when they are received.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, which recognizes a liability or asset representing the tax effects, based on current tax law, of future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Realization of tax benefits for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards depends on having sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carryforward periods. As a result, a valuation allowance is established to the extent necessary to reduce the deferred tax asset to the level at which it is “more likely than not” that the tax asset or benefits will be realized. (See Note #17).

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses the costs of advertising in the period benefited.

Note #1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

Comprehensive Income

Beginning in 1998, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” which requires the disclosure of comprehensive income and its components. Changes in unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities net of income taxes is the only component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Earnings per share and stock option amounts have been retroactively restated to give effect to all stock dividends (See Note #18).

Stock-Based Compensation

SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” encouraged, but did not require, companies to record compensation costs, at fair value, for stock-based employee compensation awards. We chose to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation costs for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.

Had compensation cost for our stock option awards been determined based on the fair value of those awards at their respective grant dates consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, our net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

	2005			2004			2003
	(In thousands, except per share data)
Net income:
As reported	$	11,286		$	9,355		$	8,421

Net income – diluted
As reported	$	1.25		$	1.05		$	0.94
Pro forma	$	1.24		$	1.03		$	0.90

SFAS No. 123 (Revised), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”), eliminates the ability to account for stock-based compensation using APB 25 and requires that the fair value of stock option grants and other equity compensation awards, determined as of their dates of grant and vesting dates, be recognized as compensation cost in the income statement. SFAS 123(R) is effective for fiscal years that began after June 15, 2005.

DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004, AND 2003

Note #1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

As a result, effective January 1, 2006,we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under this transition method, equity compensation costs that will be recognized in fiscal 2006 will include: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2006, based on their grant-date fair values estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Operating results for periods prior to fiscal 2006 will not be restated and, accordingly, to that extent will not be comparable to the operating results to be reported in periods after December 31, 2005.

However, based on the pro forma determinations of earnings and earnings per share prepared for prior periods in accordance with SFAS 123, we do not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) will have a material effect on our results of operations.

Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

SFAS No. 107 specifies the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments. The estimated fair value amounts of our financial instruments have been determined by us using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.

However, considerable judgment is required to develop the estimate of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we could have realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimates of methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Although we are not aware of any factor that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since the balance sheet date and, therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented in the accompanying notes (See Note #21).

Current Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities an Interpretation of ARB NO. 51 (“FIN 46”); and in December 2003, FASB issued a revision (“FIN 46R”). FIN46 and FIN46R address the requirements for consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities. It has been determined that subsidiary business trusts, formed by bank holding companies to issue trust preferred securities and lend the proceeds to the parent holding company, do not meet the definition of a variable interest entity and, therefore, may no longer be consolidated for financial reporting purposes. Bank holding companies have previously consolidated these entities and reported the trust preferred securities as liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, effective December 31, 2003 we ceased consolidating our trust preferred securities which, however, did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments. EITF 03-1 provides guidance for determining the meaning of “other-than-temporarily impaired” and its application to certain debt and equity securities within the scope of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (“SFAS 115”) and investments accounted for under the cost method. The guidance set forth in the Statement was originally effective for the Company in the December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements. However, in September 2004, the effective dates of certain parts of the Statement were delayed.

In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS No. 154”). SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. It establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

Note #1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

In November 2005, FSP FAS Nos. 115-1 “ The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments,” was issued. FSP 115-1 provides guidance for determining when an investment is considered impaired, whether impairment is other-than-temporary, and measurement of an impairment loss. An investment is considered impaired if the fair value of the investment is less than its cost. If, after consideration of all available evidence to evaluate the realizable value of its investment, impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, then an impairment loss should be recognized equal to the difference between the investment’s cost and its fair value. This FSP nullifies certain provisions EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments,” while retaining the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 which were adopted in 2003. FSP 115-1 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. We do not expect FSP 115-1 will significantly impact our financial statements upon its adoption on January 1, 2006.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments” which is a revision to SFAS No. 123, and which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. This statement eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB No. 25, and generally would require instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and to be recognized as an item of expense in the enterprise’s financial statements. In addition, this statement amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows, to require that excess tax benefits be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. SFAS 123(R) became effective for the Company as of January 1, 2006.

Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers, among other things, (ii) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

Management has the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as held-to-maturity until they mature, at which time the Bank will receive full value for the securities. Furthermore, as of December 31, 2005, management also had the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as available-for-sale for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2005, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Company’s consolidated income statement.

Note #9 - Junior Subordinated Debentures

On December 6, 2002, the Company issued $8,248,000 of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (the “Subordinated Debentures”) to Foothill Independent Statutory Trust I, a Connecticut business trust (the “Trust”). All of the common securities of which are owned by the Company. These Debentures, which are subordinated, effectively, to all other borrowings of the Company, become due and payable on December 6, 2032, but are redeemable, at par, at the Company’s option after December 26, 2007, or at any time upon the occurrence of a circumstance that would adversely affect the tax or capital treatment of the Debentures. Interest is payable quarterly on the Subordinated Debentures at the 3-Month LIBOR plus 3.25%. At December 31, 2005 that rate was 7.77%. The Company also purchased a 3% minority interest totaling $248,000 in the Trust, which is included in other assets.

The Subordinated Debentures were issued in conjunction with the sale and issuance by the Trust of trust preferred securities to an institutional investor. The Company then borrowed the net proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities from the Trust in exchange for the issuance of the Subordinated Debentures to the Trust. The payment terms of the Subordinated Dentures “mirror” the payment terms of the trust preferred securities and payments on the Debentures are used by the Trust to make payments due on the trust preferred securities. Until December 31, 2003 the Trust was treated, for accounting purposes, as a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51,” which became effective on December 31, 2003, the Company ceased consolidating the Trust into its consolidated financial statements.

Under the Federal Reserve Board’s regulations that were in effect at the time we issued the Subordinated Debentures, the indebtedness evidenced by those Debentures qualified as Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes, because they satisfied certain requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board. One of those requirements was that the Debentures had to be issued to a trust that was treated, for financial reporting purposes, as a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. As a result, the adoption of FIN No. 46 created uncertainty for us, as well as other bank holding companies that had issued such debentures, as to whether they would continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes. However, on February 28, 2005, the Federal Reserve Board issued a new rule which provides that, notwithstanding the deconsolidation of such trusts, junior subordinated debentures, such as those issued by us, may continue to constitute up to 25% of a bank holding company’s Tier 1 capital, subject to certain new limitations which will not become effective until March 31, 2009 and which, in any event, are not expected to affect the treatment of the Company’s Subordinated Debentures as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes.

Note #10 - Stock Option Plans

In 1993 the Company adopted an employee stock option plan (the “1993 Option Plan”), which provided for the grant, to officers, key employees and directors, of up to an aggregate of 1,433,801 shares of the Company common stock (as adjusted for stock dividends). Although that Option Plan expired in 2003 and, therefore, no options remain available for grant under that Plan, as of December 31, 2005 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock granted under the 1993 Option Plan were still outstanding and remained exercisable at December 31, 2005. All options that were granted under the 1993 Plan were issued with exercise prices that were not less than the fair market value of the underlying shares at their respective dates of grant. The Company applied APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting with respect to this Option Plan and, therefore, no compensation cost has been recognized with respect to options granted under the 1993 Option Plan.

In 2003 the Company also adopted, and its stockholders approved, an employee incentive and nonqualified stock option plan (the “2003 Option Plan”). The Company has applied APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting with respect to this Option Plan. Accordingly, no compensation costs have been recognized with respect to options granted under the 2003 Option Plan.

At December 31, 2005, the 2003 Option Plan provided for the issuance up to an aggregate of 613,125 shares of the Company’s common stock (retroactively adjusted for stock dividends since inception of the plan) pursuant to options granted or to be granted under that Plan. Options to purchase those shares may be granted to officers, key employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries at prices that are not less than the fair market value of such shares at dates of grant. Options may be granted under the 2003 Option Plan for terms of up to ten years from the dates on which the options are granted.

The fair value of each option grant under the 2003 Option Plan in 2003 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: a risk-free rate of 3.07%; a dividend yield of 2.3%; an expected life of five years; and volatility of 27%. No options were granted under the 2003 Plan in 2004.

The fair value of each option grant in 2005 was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions: a risk-free rate of 3.97%; a dividend yield of 2.95%; an expected life of five years; and volatility of 26%.

Under this plan, participating employees are eligible to receive 40% of their final average monthly salary upon reaching 65 years of age and completing 10 years of service with the Bank. This plan provides for payments for fifteen years commencing upon retirement. The SERP expense was $235,000 ($139,000 net of income taxes) for 2005, $79,000 ($47,000 net of income taxes) for 2004, and $0 for 2003.

Note #14 - Restrictions on Transfers of Funds to Parent

There are legal limitations on the ability of the Bank to provide funds to the Company. Dividends declared by the Bank may not exceed, in any calendar year, without approval of the California Commissioner of Financial Institutions, net income for the year and the retained net income from the preceding two years. At December 31, 2005, the maximum aggregate dividends that could have been paid, without the approval of the California Commissioner of Financial Institutions was approximately $34,948,000 or 50% consolidated stockholders’ equity.

However, because payment of cash dividends has the effect of reducing a bank’s capital, as a practical matter the capital requirements imposed on the Bank, as a federally insured bank, operate to preclude the payment of cash dividends in amounts that might otherwise be permitted by California law. Additionally, Federal bank regulatory agencies, as part of their supervisory powers, generally require insured banks to adopt dividend policies which limit the payment of cash dividends much more strictly than do applicable laws.

Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act also restricts the Bank from extending credit to Company and its other affiliates in amounts that, in the aggregate, would exceed 20% of the Bank’s contributed capital and retained earnings.

Note #19 - Commitments and Contingencies

The Bank is involved in various litigation that has arisen in the ordinary course of its business. Management believes that disposition of pending litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company, its results of operations or its financial condition.

In the normal course of business, the Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby commercial letters of credit. To varying degrees, these instruments involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial position. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Bank had commitments to extend credit of $69,160,000 and $53,902,000, respectively, and obligations under standby letters of credit of $1,141,000 and $2,968,000, respectively.

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 amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, income-producing commercial properties, residential properties and properties under construction.

Note #19 - Commitments and Contingencies, Continued

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

We have a line of credit at the Federal Home Loan Bank of approximately $49 million which is secured by pledged securities. We also have lines of credit at our correspondent banks to borrow fed funds of approximately $18 million.

Note #20 - Regulatory Matters

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by Federal banking agencies. Under applicable law and government regulations, a failure by the Company or the Bank to meet certain minimum capital requirements would result in the imposition of operational restrictions and other requirements and the possible initiation of additional discretionary actions by government regulatory agencies that could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital requirements that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. The most recent notification from the Federal regulators categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts (set forth in the table below) of total capital and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) and ratios of total capital and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and to average assets (as defined).

The following table compares, as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the total capital and Tier 1 capital of the Company (on a consolidated basis), and that of the Bank, to the capital requirements imposed by government regulations (with amounts stated in thousands):

Note #21 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The table below presents the carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments at December 31, 2005 and 2004 (with dollars in thousands). SFAS Statement No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point-in-time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holding of a particular financial instrument. Because no market value exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, future expected loss experience and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of judgment, and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes and assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004, AND 2003

Note #21 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Continued

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

Investment Securities

For U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government Agency securities, fair values are based on market prices. For other investment securities, fair value equals quoted market price if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities as the basis for a pricing matrix. Also included in investment securities are time certificates of deposit held at other banks, Federal Home Loan Bank stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock owned by the Bank.

Loans and Direct Lease Financing

The fair value for loans with variable interest rates is the carrying amount. The fair value of fixed rate loans is derived by calculating the discounted value of the future cash flows expected to be received from the various homogeneous categories of loans. All loans have been adjusted to reflect changes in credit risk.

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance

The fair value of cash surrender value of life insurance is defined as the cash value payable on demand at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.

Accrued interest receivable

The fair value of accrued interest receivable is the carrying amount, due to the short-term nature of these items. It represents interest receivable on loans, investment securities, and deposits held at other banks that was due to be paid to the Bank at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, money market deposits, savings accounts and NOW accounts is defined as the amounts payable on demand at December 31, 2005, and December 31, 2004. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated based on the discounted value of the future cash flows expected to be paid on the deposits.

Accrued interest payable

The fair value of accrued interest payable is the carrying amount due to the short-term nature of these items. It represents interest payable on deposits, short-term debt and junior subordinated debentures that was due to be paid by the Bank at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.

Short term debt

The fair value of short-term debt is the carrying amount due to the short-term nature of these instruments. It represents 30-day notes payable to the Federal Home Loan Bank at December 31, 2005. The Bank did not have any short-term debt at December 31, 2004.

Junior subordinated debentures

The fair value for the variable rate junior subordinated debentures is the carrying amount.

On December 14, 2005, the Company and First Community Bancorp (“First Community’) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides for a merger (the “Merger”) pursuant to which (i) Foothill will be acquired by and merged into First Community, (ii) First Community will be the surviving corporation in the Merger and Foothill will cease to exist, and (iii) Foothill’s stockholders will become shareholders of First Community and will receive a number of shares of First Community’s common stock that will be determined on the basis of the average closing price of First Community’s shares for the 15 trading days ending two trading days prior to the consummation of the Merger.

The Merger Agreement has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of Foothill and First Community. However, consummation of the Merger is subject to satisfaction of a number of conditions which, among others, include: (i) the approval of the Merger by Foothill’s stockholders and by First Community’s shareholders; (ii) the receipt of required regulatory approvals without the imposition of materially adverse or harmful restrictions or conditions; and (iii) Foothill having an adjusted total stockholders’ equity and allowance for loan losses of not less than a combined $72.7 million as of the last business day of the last month before closing of the Merger. Assuming these conditions, as well as certain others, are satisfied, it is currently expected that the Merger will be consummated during the second quarter of 2006.

Severance Agreements

The Company is a party to Change in Control Severance Agreements with George E. Langley, its President and CEO, Casey J. Cecala, its Executive Vice President and the Chief Credit Officer of the Bank, and Carol Ann Graf, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Those Agreements provide for the payment of severance compensation to any of those officers whose employment is terminated without cause or who resign their employment for “good reason” within one year following the occurrence of a change in control of the Company, which would include consummation of the Merger. Therefore, assuming the Merger is consummated, due to the personnel changes to be made by First Community at Foothill, these officers will become entitled to receive the following compensation pursuant to their respective Severance Compensation Agreements: Messrs. Langley and Cecala will each receive a cash amount equal to three times, and Ms. Graf will receive a cash amount equal to two times (i) his or her highest base salary during the prior 12 months, and (ii) the incentive compensation that he or she would have been earned under the Bank’s 2006 management incentive compensation plan assuming all performance requirements thereunder had been satisfied. In addition, their respective health and other employee benefits will be continued for a period of three years, in the case of Messrs. Langley and Cecala, and a period of two years in the case of Ms. Graf, following consummation of the Merger. Also, any of their employee stock options that are not exercisable by the time the Merger is consummated will become exercisable as a result of the consummation of the Merger.

Note 25 – Subsequent Event

On January 24, 2006 the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend in the amount of $0.15 per share to be paid on February 28, 2006 to shareholders of record as of February 9, 2006.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under that Act (the Exchange Act), such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our disclosure controls and procedures also are designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of December 31, 2005. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2005, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information, relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be included in our Exchange Act reports, including this Annual Report on Form 10–K, is made known to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, on a timely basis.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2005, that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of Foothill Independent Bancorp is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those written policies and procedures that:

• pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

• provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America;

• provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and

• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls themselves, monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changed conditions or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management’s Assessment and Determination

Our management assessed the effectiveness of Foothill Independent Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design and the testing of the operational effectiveness of Foothill Independent Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of December 31, 2005, Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiaries maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Co. LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, which audited and reported on our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued an attestation report, which is set forth below, on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiary

Glendora, California

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Report of Management, that Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiary (the “Company”) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Because management’s assessment and our audit were conducted to also meet the reporting requirements of Section 112 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA), management’s assessment and our audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting included controls over the preparation of financial statements in accordance with instructions to the Consolidated Financial Statements for Bank Holding Companies (Form FR Y-9 C).

A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and the receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

70

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management’s assessment that Foothill Independent Bancorp and Subsidiary maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005 and our report dated March 14, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion.

Employment Agreements and Change in Control Agreements

Mr. Langley is employed as the Bank’s President and Chief Executive Officer pursuant to an employment agreement which became effective on October 1, 2003 and expires on September 30, 2006. Pursuant to that agreement Mr. Langley receives a base annual salary of $315,000 and is entitled to participate in any bonus or incentive compensation programs and other employee benefit plans generally available to executives and key employees of the Bank. The Bank also has agreed to furnish Mr. Langley with the use of an automobile and to provide him with certain supplemental insurance benefits. Under the employment agreement, the Bank is entitled to terminate Mr. Langley’s employment at any time prior to its expiration without cause. In that event, Mr. Langley’s salary, bonuses and other benefits would be continued for a period of three years measured from the September 30 immediately following such termination. In the event of Mr. Langley’s death while employed as the Bank’s President and Chief Executive Officer, salary and bonuses would cease, but the Bank would be obligated to continue the dependent health and dental insurance coverage for Mr. Langley’s wife for a period of three years thereafter. If Mr. Langley’s employment is terminated for cause, or by reason of resignation or his disability, and Mr. Langley, during the period ending on the first anniversary of the effective date of such termination, refrains from accepting employment from, and from providing consulting or advisory services to, any competing banking or depository institution, then all life, medical, dental and disability insurance programs in which Mr. Langley was participating at that time will be continued for that one year period.

Mr. Langley also has a severance compensation agreement with the Bank. That agreement provides that if there is a change in majority ownership of the Company or the Bank, whether by acquisition of shares, merger or sale of assets, and following that change, Mr. Langley’s employment is terminated without cause or he terminates his employment due to a reduction in his compensation or the scope of his authority or duties, Mr. Langley shall receive a payment equal to three times the sum of (i) the highest base salary paid to Mr. Langley during the twelve month period prior to such termination, and (ii) the bonuses that would have been paid to Mr. Langley under any then existing incentive compensation plans in which he was a participant at the time of the change in ownership of the Bank, assuming all performance goals established under such plans had been met. In addition, upon such termination following a change in control of the Bank or the Company, Mr. Langley’s unvested options would become vested and his employee benefits would be continued for a period of three years from the date of termination.

The Bank has severance compensation agreements with Mr. Cecala and Ms. Graf which are substantially similar to Mr. Langley’s severance compensation agreement. The new agreements provide that if, there is a change in majority ownership of the Company or the Bank, and following that change, their employment is terminated without cause or they terminate their employment due to a reduction in compensation or the scope of authority or duties, Mr. Cecala would receive a payment equal to three times, and Ms. Graf would receive a payment equal to two times, the sum of (i) the highest base salary paid to him or her (as the case may be) during the twelve month period prior to such termination, and (ii) the bonuses that he or she would have received if he or she had remained in the employ of the Bank during the remainder of the calendar year under any incentive compensation plans, assuming all performance goals established under such plans had been met. In addition, each of their unvested options would become vested and their respective employee

76

benefits would be continued for a period of three years in the case of Mr. Cecala and two years in the case of Ms. Graf. These severance compensation agreements, which the Bank entered into with them in 2005, replaced earlier severance compensation agreements, which were substantially identical to their current agreements, except that the time periods over which their severance compensation is to be calculated were extended, by the current agreements from two to three years in the case of Mr. Cecala, and from one to two years in the case of Ms. Graf.

Deferred Compensation Plans and Insurance Programs

Effective January 1, 1985, the Bank adopted the 1985 Deferred Compensation Plan, a voluntary unfunded deferred compensation plan which permitted selected key salaried management employees of the Bank to defer receipt of a portion of their annual salaries and bonuses that would otherwise have been paid during a four-year period that ended on December 31, 1988 and, in exchange therefor, entitled them to receive supplemental retirement benefits in an amount determined on the basis of the amount of salary deferred over that four-year period and the participant’s age at the time of participation and the earnings accrued on the deferred salary and bonus. Earnings on amounts in each participant’s account accrue at an annual fixed rate. The supplemental retirement benefits are payable over a 10 year period commencing on the participant’s retirement date, except that if the participant dies prior to that date, his or her beneficiaries will receive a death benefit, in lieu of the retirement benefit, over a 10 year period. The benefit payments are not subject to any reduction for Social Security benefits or other offset amounts. A total of 19 employees, including Mr. Langley and Ms. Graf, participated in the 1985 Deferred Compensation Plan. It is estimated that, under this Plan, Mr. Langley will receive approximately $127,500 per year over the 10-year period following his retirement, and Ms. Graf will receive approximately $75,000 per year for the 10-year period following her retirement.

The Bank has purchased life insurance on employees participating in the 1985 Deferred Compensation Plan in amounts that, in the aggregate, are expected, on an actuarial basis, to fund all of its future payment obligations under this plan. The Bank is the owner and sole beneficiary of the life insurance. Thus, no direct allocation of cost is made to any one employee and no amount attributable to the expenses of the 1985 Deferred Compensation Plan is included in the Summary Compensation Table set forth above.

Under another deferred compensation plan presently in effect, officers and other key employees are entitled, prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, to elect to defer a portion of their annual salary in the upcoming year under annually established unfunded deferred compensation programs designed to provide for each participating employee a supplemental retirement benefit in an amount based on the salary deferred and earnings thereon. None of the Named Officers are participating in that Plan.

In 2003 the Company purchased insurance policies on the lives of certain officers and other key management personnel, including Mr. Cecala and Ms. Graf, primarily to protect the Bank against the costs it might incur in the event of the untimely death of any of those officers or other key management personnel. Under this program, the insurance obtained by the Company has a split-dollar component which would pay $100,000 of benefits to the dependents of Mr. Cecala or Ms. Graf in the event of his or her death while he or she was employed by the Company.

Effective January 1, 2004, the Bank adopted the Foothill Independent Bank 2004 Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”), a nonqualified, unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for a select group of “management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of ERISA. The SERP was adopted for the purpose of attracting and retaining in the Bank’s employ, high quality executives, and providing incentives to such executives to devote their utmost skills and efforts to the success of the Bank. The benefits afforded by the SERP are provided in consideration for services to be performed by each executive selected to participate in the SERP subsequent to the commencement date of their participation and prior to their retirement. Benefits vest over a multi-year period, so long as the participant remains in the Bank’s employment and the maximum retirement benefit that a participant can earn under this plan is forty percent (40%) of the participant’s final average monthly salary, which is payable monthly for a 15 year period that will commence on the participant’s retirement date. If the participant dies prior to that date, his or her beneficiaries will receive a death benefit in the amount of the participant’s vested retirement benefit at the time of the participant’s death, which would be paid in one hundred eighty (180) monthly installments. The benefit payments are not subject to any reduction for Social Security benefits or other offset amounts. A total of 8 employees, including Mr. Cecala and Ms. Graf, participate in the SERP.

Director’s Compensation

In 2005, the Chairman of the Board was paid a retainer of $22,440 per year and the other directors, including Mr. Langley, were paid a retainer of $17,160 per year, for their services as members of the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank. All of the directors also received a fee of $3,300 per year for their services as members of the Board of Directors’ Loan Committee. All employee and non-employee directors also received a medical benefit in the amount of $8,544 per year. No per meeting fees were paid to any of the directors for attending meetings of the Board of Directors or of any Committees of the Board on which they served.

Compensation Committee Interlocks

In fiscal 2005, the members of the Compensation Committee were Richard Galich, William Landecena, O. L. Mestad, and George Sellers , each of whom is a non-employee director of the Company. None of our executive officers served on the board of directors or compensation committee of any corporation or other entity which has one or more of its executive officers serving as members of our Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee.

Report of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for approving, and evaluating the efficacy of, compensation policies and programs for the Bank, which employs all of the Company’s executive officers, and for making determinations regarding the compensation of the Company’s executive officers.

The following report is submitted by the Compensation Committee members with respect to the executive compensation policies established by the Compensation Committee and the compensation received by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers for their services, as officers, in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

Compensation Policies and Objectives

In adopting, and also evaluating the effectiveness of, compensation programs for executive officers, as well as other key management employees of the Bank, the Compensation Committee is guided by three basic principles:

• The Company and the Bank must be able to attract and retain highly-qualified and experienced banking professionals with proven performance records.

• A substantial portion of annual executive compensation should be tied to the Bank’s performance, measured in terms of profitability, asset growth and asset quality.

• The financial interests of the Company’s senior executives should be aligned with the financial interests of the stockholders, primarily through stock option grants which reward executives for improvements in the market performance of the Company’s common stock, subject to limitations on the number of options that may be granted to any senior executive in any year.

Attracting and Retaining Executives and Other Key Employees

There is substantial competition among banks and other financial institutions and service organizations for qualified banking professionals. In order to retain executives and other key management employees, and to attract additional well-qualified banking professionals when the need arises, the Company strives to offer salaries and health care, retirement and other employee benefit programs to its executives and other key employees which are competitive with those offered by other banks and financial services organizations in California.

In establishing salaries for executive officers, the Compensation Committee reviews (i) the historical performance of the executives and the financial performance of the Company during their tenure as executives of the Company; and (ii) available information regarding prevailing salaries and compensation programs at banks and other financial organizations which are located in the Bank’s market areas and are comparable, in terms of asset-size, capitalization and performance, to the Bank. Another factor which is considered in establishing salaries of executive officers is the cost of living in Southern California, which generally is higher than in other parts of the country.

78

CEO Compensation

The Bank has followed the practice of entering into multi-year employment agreements with its Chief Executive Officer. Such agreements serve to assure continuity in that position and to deter competing banks from attempting to hire away the Bank’s Chief Executive Officer.

In 2003, the Bank extended the term of the existing employment agreement it has with George Langley, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, to September 30, 2006. See “COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS — Employment Agreements and Change of Control Agreements” for a description of Mr. Langley’s compensation under that agreement. The decision to extend Mr. Langley’s employment agreement was based on a number of factors, including (i) the Bank’s performance during his tenure as Chief Executive Officer, (ii) Mr. Langley’s tenure with the Bank where he has been an executive officer since 1976, and which the Compensation Committee believes has been an important factor in enabling the Bank to retain most of its business banking customers, and (iii) the continuity and stability of management that Mr. Langley’s retention as Chief Executive Officer provides to both the Company and the Bank.

Performance-Based Compensation

The Compensation Committee believes that payment of compensation in excess of a senior executive’s base salary should be primarily dependent on the level of profitability achieved by the Bank, the quality of its assets, which is critical to the longer term success of the Bank, and the Bank’s comparative performance as measured against the performance of other banking institutions of comparable size in Northern and Southern California (“Peer-Group Banks”).

The Board of Directors of the Company has identified several performance factors which affect a bank’s profitability and financial strength and which the Board believes are important to the enhancement of stockholder value. These include asset growth; the quality and collectibility of the Bank’s assets, which consist primarily of loans and investment securities; the volume and mix of deposits, which affect the Bank’s net interest margin or “spread” and also its fee income; and the level of non-interest expense. On the basis primarily of evaluations of the prior year’s operations, and economic and market conditions in the Bank’s service areas and management reports, at the beginning of each fiscal year the Board of Directors establishes annual performance goals for the Bank in each of these areas, assigns “weights” to these performance factors in terms of their anticipated impact on the Bank’s earnings and establishes an earnings goal for the year.

At the beginning of each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee adopts an incentive compensation plan that provides the Named Officers and other management and key employees with the opportunity to earn incentive compensation in amounts that will be based on the extent to which the performance goals established by the Board for that year are achieved or exceeded. As part of the plan, the Compensation Committee establishes the incentive compensation awards that each of the Named Officers, including the CEO, may earn under the plan, based on the extent to which baseline or threshold Bank performance measures that have been established for that year by the Committee are exceeded by the Bank. Those incentive awards may be expressed as specified dollar amounts or as percentages of each Named Officer’s annual salary, as the Committee deems appropriate. The amounts of the incentive compensation awards vary among the Named Officers, as well as other plan participants, based on such factors as the Committee deems appropriate, which may include (i) the Named Officer’s or other participant’s expected contribution to the Bank’s performance goals for the fiscal year, (ii) his or her position and level of responsibilities with the Bank, (iii) his or her salary level, and (iv) his or her past individual performance and past contributions to the Bank’s financial performance and record of accomplishments.

As a result of these performance-based incentive compensation programs, as a general rule the amount of executive compensation is higher and the proportion of each executive’s total cash compensation that is represented by incentive or bonus compensation is greater in those years when performance goals are exceeded.

Stock Programs

In order to align the financial interests of its officers and other key management employees with those of the stockholders, the Compensation Committee grants stock options to the Named Officers and other key management employees on a periodic basis. Stock option grants are intended to reward senior executives and other key employees for achieving improved market performance of the Company’s stock, which directly benefits all stockholders. Generally, the number of shares included in each stock option grant is determined based on an evaluation of the executive’s importance to the future performance of the Company. As a result, as a general rule, the more senior the executive, the greater the number of option shares that are awarded to him or her. However, the Company’s Option Plan limits the number of shares

79

as to which options may be granted any employee, including the Named Officers, in any year to 38,150 shares (as adjusted for stock splits and stock dividends). Additionally, the Compensation Committee has followed the practice, when awarding options, to provide for them to become exercisable in multi-year installments and for options that have not yet become exercisable to terminate automatically on any termination of an optionee’s employment.

Effective as of January 1, 2006, Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) 123(R) became applicable to the Company, as well as other calendar year public companies. FAS 123(R) requires public companies to recognize, in their financial statements, as a non-cash expense item, the fair value of stock options and other types of equity compensation awards that are granted to their employees and directors. The Compensation Committee intends to evaluate whether changes should be made with respect to the number of options or in the terms on which options are granted in the future due to the impact that grants of options and other equity compensation awards will have on the Company’s reported operating results.

In 1993 the Bank established a 401(k) Plan in which all employees, including executive officers, may participate. Under this plan, all employees who have been employed for at least six months may make plan contributions, which they may elect to have invested in Company common stock or in various mutual funds. In addition, the Company makes matching contributions, in the form of shares of Company common stock, of up to 4% of amounts contributed by participants in the Plan. Each of the Named Officers participated in this plan in 2005, along with 236 other employees.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Bank has had, and in the future may have, banking transactions in the ordinary course of its business with directors, principal stockholders and their associates, including the making of loans to directors and their associates. Such loans and other banking transactions are made on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral securing the loans, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons.
