 for the quarter was 2.47 percent. Deposits were concentrated in the bank's money market product which the bank offered a very competitive interest rate to attract new depositors. The bank adjusted these rates to at or slightly above market, early in April, and anticipates that this will moderate the growth rate in deposits for the second quarter.

The bank continued to focus significant attention on loan production. Loans outstanding at March 31, 2002 were $10.8 million net of an allowance for loan losses of $137,000. This represents an increase of $8.8 million for the quarter.

Net loss for the quarter was $688,000, or $.70 per share. The loss from operations for the period was about 15 percent greater than had been originally anticipated.

All these factors are expected to be on track in the second quarter.
