Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

Readers should note that in addition to the historical information contained
herein, some of the information in this report contains forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking
statements typically are identified with use of terms such as "may," "will,"
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate" and similar words, although some forward-
looking statements are expressed differently. You should be aware that the
Company's actual results could differ materially from those contained in the
forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including burdens imposed
by federal and state regulation of banks, credit risk, exposure to local
economic conditions, risks associated with rapid increase or decrease in
prevailing interest rates and competition from banks and other financial
institutions, all of which could cause the Company's actual results to differ
from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

PART I
------

ITEM 1: BUSINESS

General

Enterbank Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the
State of Delaware on December 30, 1994, for the purpose of providing a holding
company structure for the ownership of Enterprise Bank, a Missouri banking
corporation, (the "St. Louis Bank"). The Company acquired Enterprise Bank in
St. Louis in May 1995 through a tax-free exchange with Bank shareholders. In
June of 2000, Enterbank and Commercial Guaranty Bancshares, Inc., the parent
company for First Commercial Bank, N.A. (the "Kansas Bank"), merged under a tax-
free reorganization. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of
interests. The holding company ownership structure gives the Banks a source of
capital and financial strength and allows the organization some flexibility in
expanding the products and services offered to clients. In 2000, the Company
elected to change its status from a bank holding company to a financial holding
company.

The St. Louis Bank began operations on May 9, 1988 as a new Missouri banking
corporation. From 1988 through 1996, the Bank provided commercial banking
services to its customers from a single location in the City of Clayton, St.
Louis County, Missouri. During 1997, the Bank opened two additional facilities
located in St. Charles County, Missouri and the City of Sunset Hills, located in
St. Louis County. During 1998, the Bank opened an operations facility in St.
Louis County, Missouri.

The Company organized Enterprise Merchant Banc, Inc. ("Merchant Banc") (formerly
Enterprise Capital Resources, Inc.) in 1995 as a wholly owned subsidiary to
provide merchant banking services to closely-held businesses and their owners.
Merchant Banc's current operations include a minority interest in Enterprise
Merchant Banc, LLC, which focuses on providing equity capital and equity-linked
debt investments to growing companies in need of additional capital to finance
internal and acquisition-related growth. Additionally, Merchant Banc may
receive fee income for its role as a financial advisor in capital raising
transactions as well as mergers and acquisitions. It focuses on "second stage"
and mezzanine financing for established companies rather than "seed money" for
start-up operations.

Enterprise Trust ("Trust"), formally referred to as Enterprise Financial
Advisors ("EFA"), a division of the St. Louis Bank, was organized in late 1998
to provide fee-based trust services, personal financial planning, estate
planning, and corporate planning services to the Company's target market on a
full time basis. As part of the organization of Trust, the Company entered into
solicitation and referral agreements with Moneta Group, Inc. ("Moneta"). These
agreements were later renegotiated. These agreements call for Moneta to provide
assistance in staffing, training, marketing and regulatory compliance for Trust
for which Moneta receives compensation. Moneta refers customers, when
appropriate, to the Bank and receives a share of the revenue generated in the
form of options on the Company's common stock. The agreements with Moneta allow
Trust to offer a full range of products and services with the depth and
expertise of a large planning firm.

1
The Kansas Bank began operations on February 20, 1996 as a new Kansas banking
corporation. From February of 1996 through June of 2000, First Commercial Bank
primarily provided commercial banking services to its customers in Overland
Park, Kansas, located in Johnson County. The Kansas Bank acquired the First
National Bank of Humboldt in December of 1997, adding three additional
locations in Humboldt, Chanute and Iola, all located in Southeast Kansas. In
June of 2000, Enterbank completed a merger transaction under which the Kansas
Bank became a subsidiary of the Company. On January 1, 2001, the Kansas Bank
changed its legal name to Enterprise Banking, N.A.

As used herein, unless the context indicates otherwise, Enterbank Holdings, Inc.
and all of its subsidiaries are referred collectively as the ("Organization" or
"Company"). The Kansas and St. Louis Banks and all of their subsidiaries are
referred to as ("The Bank" or "Banking Franchise"). Enterprise Bank, Missouri
and all of its subsidiaries are referred to as "The St. Louis Bank". Enterprise
Banking N.A. and all of its subsidiaries are referred to as "The Kansas Bank".

The Company's executive offices are located at 150 North Meramec, Clayton,
Missouri 63105. The Company's telephone number is (314) 725-5500.

Strategy

The Company's strategy is to provide a complete range of financial services
designed to appeal to closely-held businesses, their owners, and to
professionals in the St. Louis and Kansas City metropolitan areas. The St.
Louis Bank encompasses the city of St. Louis, Missouri, the Missouri counties
of St. Louis, St. Charles, Jefferson, Franklin, Lincoln and Warren and the
Illinois county of St. Clair. The Kansas Bank serves Johnson County and the
greater Kansas City area, as well as Southeast Kansas. The Company's merchant
banking operation targets a larger geographic area, which includes all of
Missouri and the adjoining states. The Company's goal is to grow its operations
within its defined market niche by being well-managed, well-capitalized and
disciplined in its approach to managing and expanding its operations as growth
opportunities arise. The Company believes its goals can be achieved while
providing attractive returns to shareholders. Assets and income growth, net
income, earnings per share, and return on shareholders' equity are the financial
performance indicators the Company considers most critical in measuring success.

Through the Banks, the Company currently delivers a full range of commercial
banking services to the closely-held business market. Merchant banking and
venture capital services are conducted through the Merchant Banc. Financial
planning and trust services are offered through Trust. The Company plans to
continue to expand the range of services it provides within its market niche
while expanding the base of customers.

The Bank

Enterprise Bank in St. Louis is a Missouri state chartered bank. Enterprise
Banking, N.A., formerly First Commercial Bank, N.A., is a nationally chartered
bank. The Bank offers a broad range of commercial and personal banking services
to customers. Loans include commercial, commercial real estate, financial and
industrial development, real estate construction and development, residential
real estate and a smaller amount of consumer loans. Other services include cash
management, safe-deposit boxes.

The Bank's primary source of funds has historically been customer deposits. The
Bank offers a variety of accounts for depositors designed to attract both short-
term and long-term deposits. These accounts include certificates of deposit,
savings accounts, money market accounts, checking and negotiable order of
withdrawal accounts, and individual retirement accounts. Interest-bearing
accounts earn interest at rates established by management based on competitive
market factors and management's desire to increase or decrease certain types of
deposits.

Management believes the Bank is able to compete effectively in both markets
because the Bank's calling officers and management maintain close working
relationships with their commercial clients; the Bank's management structure
enables it to react to customer requests for loan and deposit services more
quickly than larger competitors; the Bank's management and officers have
significant experience in the communities serviced by the Bank; and the Bank
continues to target the closely-held business and

2
professional market. Additionally, industry consolidation has resulted in fewer
independent banks and fewer banks serving the Bank's target market niche.
Management believes the Bank is one of only a few whose primary strategy is to
focus on closely-held businesses, their owners and the professional market.

The Bank's historical growth strategy has been both client and asset driven.
The Bank continuously seeks to add clients that fit its target market. This
strategy enabled the Bank to attract clients whose borrowing needs have grown
along with the Bank's increasing capacity to fund client loan requests.
Additionally, the Bank increased its loan portfolio based on lending
opportunities developed by relationship officers. The Bank funds loan growth by
attracting deposits from business and professional clients, by borrowing from
the Federal Home Loan Bank and by attracting wholesale deposits which are
considered stable deposit sources and which are priced at or below the Bank's
all-in alternative cost of funds.

The Bank's operating strategy results in operating ratios comparable to peer
banks despite an increasing investment in sales personnel whose goal is to
expand the number and depth of the Bank's customer relationships. The Bank can
expand its customer relationships and control operating costs by: operating a
small number of offices with a high per office asset base; emphasizing
commercial loans which tend to be larger than retail loans; employing an
experienced staff, all of whom are rewarded on the basis of performance and
customer service; improving data processing and operational systems to increase
productivity and control risk; leasing facilities where possible so that capital
can be deployed more effectively to support growth in earning assets; and
outsourcing services where possible.

The Bank has a strong orientation toward commercial banking, with a specific
focus on closely-held businesses, their owners, and professionals located in the
target service areas. The Bank stresses personal service, flexibility in
structuring loan and deposit relationships which meet client needs and timely
responsiveness to the needs of clients. Management of the Bank makes it a
practice to maintain close working relationships and personal contact with each
of the commercial clients.

Each of the Kansas and St. Louis Banks has its own Board of Directors. Each
Board is comprised primarily of business owners and professionals who fit the
target client profile. Each Board of Directors takes an active role in the
business development activities and the credit review process of its respective
Bank. Input and understanding of the needs of the Bank's current and target
clients has been critical in the Bank's past success and will be critical in the
Bank's plans for future growth.

The Bank has historically low relationship officer turnover, and the policy is
to keep officers assigned to accounts for long periods of time. This practice
improves each officer's understanding of clients' businesses resulting in
knowledgeable credit assessments and superior client service.

Relationship officers are supported by credit analysts and other support
personnel who are familiar with each assigned customer, creating a team approach
to serving customers' needs. A significant portion of the Bank's new business
results from referrals from existing customers.


Market Areas and Approach to Expansion

The St. Louis Bank has facilities in Clayton, St. Charles County and the City of
Sunset Hills. The Kansas Bank has facilities in Johnson County and Southeast
Kansas. The Company chose to locate in these markets based on high expectations
for growth, high concentration of closely-held businesses and the high number of
professionals in those markets. As mentioned above, the Company believes that
local management and the involvement of a Board of Directors comprised of local
business persons and professionals are key ingredients for success. Management
believes that credit decisions, pricing matters, business development
strategies, and other decisions should be made locally by managers who have an
equity stake in the Company (see "Management"). The Company, as part of its
expansion effort, plans to continue its strategy of operating a small number of
offices with a high per office asset base, emphasizing commercial loans, and
employing experienced staff who are rewarded on the basis of performance and
customer service.

Enterprise Merchant Banc

The Merchant Banc was established in 1995 to provide merchant banking services
to closely held businesses and their owners. Its current operations include a
minority investment in Enterprise Merchant Banc, LLC, which focuses on providing
equity capital and equity-linked debt investments to growing companies in need
of additional capital to finance internal and acquisition-related growth.
Merchant Bank LLC manages two investment funds with total committed capital of
approximately $35 million, of which most is invested. It focuses on "second
stage" and mezzanine financing for established companies rather the "seed money"
for start up organizations. Additionally, the Merchant Banc may receive fee
income for its role as a financial advisor in capital raising transactions as
well as mergers and acquisitions. To date, although no fees have been received
for these services, $175,000 was accrued in September 2000 related to these
services.

In mid-1999, the Company restructured its ownership and control positions of
various merchant banking operations. As a result of this restructuring, the
Company maintains 100% ownership of the Merchant Banc, which in turn has a
minority interest in Enterprise Merchant Banc, LLC. The minority interest in
the LLC includes a 4.9% voting and common stock ownership interest with a 24.9%
economic interest. The new structure provides the ability to achieve economic
benefits comparable to those available under the previous structure, while
satisfying Federal Reserve regulations concerning ownership and control.

Enterprise Trust (Formerly Enterprise Financial Advisors)

In 1997, the St. Louis Bank entered into solicitation and referral agreements
with Moneta Group, Inc., a nationally recognized firm in the financial planning
industry, to begin offering financial services to clients. Under the agreements,
Moneta provided assistance in staffing, training, marketing and regulatory
compliance and in return received a share of the gross margin generated by
Enterprise Trust for planning and trust services. In addition, Moneta refers
banking clients, when appropriate, to the Bank and receives a share of the
revenue generated in the form of options in the Company's common stock.

In 1998, Enterprise entered the trust and financial planning business on a full
time basis when the St. Louis Bank was granted trust powers by the regulators.
At this time the St. Louis Bank modified its agreements with Moneta. The new
agreements call for Moneta to help the Bank with many of the issues related to
startup including, but not limited to, staffing, training, marketing, and
regulatory compliance. In return, Moneta receives a portion of the gross margin
earned by the Trust division of the Bank in the form of cash. Moneta still
refers banking business to the Bank and receives options in the form of
compensation for banking business referrals.

Enterprise Trust provides fee-based personal and corporate financial consulting
and trust services to the Company's target market. Personal financial consulting
includes estate planning, investment management, and retirement planning.
Corporate consulting services are focused in the areas of retirement plans,
management compensation and management succession issues. Some investment
management services are provided through Argent Capital Management LLC
("Argent"), a money management company that invests principally in large
capitalization companies, of which the Company owns approximately 5% of the
outstanding shares.

In addition, the Company acquired approximately 11% of Retirement Plan Services,
LLC ("RPS") in October of 2000 and in December elected to move its 401(k) plan
from the Principal Group to RPS.

Investments

The Company's investment policy is designed to enhance net income and return on
equity through prudent management of risk; ensure liquidity to meet cash-flow
requirements; help manage interest rate risk; ensure collateral is available for
public deposits, advances and repurchase agreements; and manage asset
diversification. The Company, through the Asset/Liability Management Committee
("ALCO"), monitors investment activity and manages its liquidity by structuring
the maturity dates of its investments to meet anticipated customer funding
needs. However, the primary goal of the Company's investment policy is to
maintain an appropriate relationship between assets and liabilities while
maximizing interest

4
rate spreads. Accordingly, the ALCO monitors the sensitivity of its assets and
liabilities with respect to changes in interest rates and maturities and directs
the overall acquisition and allocation of funds.

Employees

At December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately 252 full time equivalent
employees. None of the Company's employees are covered by a collective
bargaining agreement. Management believes that its relationship with its
employees is good.

ITEM 2: PROPERTIES

All of the Company's St. Louis banking facilities are leased under agreements
that expire in 2004, 2003, 2011 and 2016, for Clayton, St. Louis County, the
City of Sunset Hills, and St. Charles County, respectively. The Company has the
option to renew the Clayton facility lease for one additional five-year period
with future rentals to be agreed upon. Throughout 2000 the Company's Clayton
banking facility was leased from a limited partnership in which Fred H. Eller,
the Company's Chief Executive Officer, is a limited partner and Robert E. Saur,
a director of the Company, is a general partner. The partnership sold the
building in December of 2000 and neither Mr. Eller nor Mr. Saur currently have
an interest in the building, other than occupational. The Company has the option
to renew the St. Louis County facility lease for three additional five-year
periods with future rentals to be agreed upon. The Company has the option to
renew the Sunset Hills facility lease for two additional five-year periods with
future rentals to be agreed upon. The Company has no future rental options for
the St. Charles County facility; however, during the term of the lease, the
monthly rentals are adjusted periodically based on then-current market
conditions and inflation. The Merchant Banc facility in Kansas is leased under
an agreement that expires in 2003. A portion of the Merchant Banc facility is
sublet for the same amount as the lease and the proceeds are used to reduce the
Company's occupancy expense. All the banking buildings in Kansas are owned by
the Company.

The future aggregate minimum rental commitments required under the leases are as
follows:

Year Amount
---- ------

2001 $1,105,080
2002 $1,116,622
2003 $1,106,303
2004 $ 995,310
2005 $ 471,326
Thereafter $4,147,656

For leases that renew or are subject to periodic rental adjustments, the monthly
rental payments will be adjusted based on then-current market conditions and
rates of inflation.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to various
legal proceedings arising out of their businesses. Management believes that
there are no such proceedings pending or threatened against the Company or its
subsidiaries which, if determined adversely, would have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

ITEM 4: SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders in the quarter ended
December 31, 2000.

ITEM 5: MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

As of March 1, 2001, the Company had approximately 1,098 common stock
shareholders of record and a market price of $14.125. The common stock is not
traded on an exchange or in any established public trading market, although
there have been a limited number of transactions in the common stock that have
been reported to the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD"). Based
solely on the sales reported to the NASD, the Company believes the high and low
sale prices for the common stock and dividends declared were as follows in the
quarters indicated:

Dividends
Market Price Declared
-------------------- ----------
1999 High Low
----
First Quarter $ 12.50 $ 10.33 $ .0100
Second Quarter 14.00 12.50 .0100
Third Quarter 15.17 14.00 .0100
Fourth Quarter 18.25 15.17 .0100

2000
----
First Quarter $ 18.25 $ 18.00 $ .0125
Second Quarter 18.00 17.00 .0125
Third Quarter 17.75 14.75 .0125
Fourth Quarter 16.00 14.50 .0125

6
There may have been other transactions at other prices not known to the Company.

Since the Company does not have any current plans to list its common stock on
any exchange or seek quotation of common stock on the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (NASDAQ) in the near future, an
established public trading market for the common stock may not develop in the
foreseeable future.

Dividends

The holders of shares of common stock of the Company are entitled to receive
dividends when, as, and if declared by the Company's Board of Directors out of
funds legally available for the purpose of paying dividends. The amount of
dividends, if any, that may be declared by the Company will be dependent on many
factors, including future earnings, bank regulatory capital requirements and
business conditions as they affect the Bank. As a result, no assurance can be
given that dividends will be paid in the future with respect to the common
stock.

Common Stock

On August 18, 1999, the Board of Directors approved a 3 for 1 stock split, in
the form of a stock dividend, of the Company's common stock for shareholders of
record on September 29, 1999. On September 29, 1999, the Company's shareholders
approved the 3 for 1 stock split and an amendment to the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock
from 3,500,000 to 20,000,000. All share and per share amounts have been
restated to reflect the split.

The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 20,000,000 shares of
common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"). Holders of Common
Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters on which the holders of
Common Stock are entitled to vote. In all elections of directors, holders of
Common Stock have the right to cast votes equaling the number of shares of
Common Stock held by such stockholder multiplied by the number of directors to
be elected. All of such votes may be cast for a single director or may be
distributed among the number of directors to be elected, or any two or more
directors, as such stockholder may deem fit. Holders of Common Stock have no
preemptive, conversion, redemption, or sinking fund rights. In the event of a
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, holders of Common Stock
are entitled to share equally and ratably in the assets of the Company, if any,
remaining after the payment of all debts and liabilities of the Company.

ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis is intended to review the significant
factors of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for
the three-year period ended December 31, 2000. Reference should be made to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements and the selected financial data
presented elsewhere and herein for an understanding of the following review.

Fiscal 2000 Compared to Fiscal 1999
- -----------------------------------

Financial Condition

Total assets at December 31, 2000 were $710 million, an increase of $95 million,
or 15%, over total assets of $615 million at December 31, 1999. Loans were $557
million, an increase of $76 million, or 16%, over total loans of $481 million at
December 31, 1999. Federal funds sold and investment securities were $112
million, an increase of $11 million, or 11%, from total federal funds sold and
investment securities of $101 million at December 31, 1999. The increase in
loans and investments is attributable to the continued calling efforts of the
Company's relationship officers and sustained economic growth in the local
markets served by the Company.

Total deposits at December 31, 2000 were $632 million, an increase of $90
million, or 17%, over total deposits of $542 million at December 31, 1999. Most
of the deposit growth occurred in demand, interest bearing transaction, and
money market deposits. Demand deposits grew $31 million, or 41%, during 2000.
Interest bearing transaction deposits grew $13 million or 27% during 2000. Money
market deposits grew $53 million, or 24%, during 2000. Growth in transaction and
money market deposit accounts is attributed primarily to direct calling efforts
of relationship officers and $12 million in money market accounts referred by
Moneta. Certificates of deposits decreased $6 million, or 3% during 2000. The
Company belongs to a national network of time depositors (primarily credit
unions) who place time deposits with the Company, typically in increments of
$99,000. The Company refers to such deposits as network CD's. The Bank chose
to decrease the amount of network CDs by $15 million or 33% because of
sufficient growth in other categories to meet loan demand. The $9 million in
core certificates of deposit growth is due to an enhanced presence in the market
place.

Total shareholders equity at December 31, 2000 was $53 million, an increase of
$6 million over total shareholders equity of $47 million at December 31, 1999.
The increase in equity is primarily due to net income of $5.2 million for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2000, the exercise of incentive stock options,
and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income, less dividends paid to
shareholders.

Results of Operations

Net income was $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of
40% over net income of $3.7 million for the same period in 1999. Diluted
earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 were $0.54 and
$0.39 respectively.

Net Interest Income

The largest component of the Company's net income is net interest income. Net
interest income (presented on a tax equivalent basis) was $28.6 million, which
yielded a net interest margin of 4.55%, for the year ended December 31, 2000,
compared to net interest income of $23.1 million and net interest margin of
4.68% for the same period in 1999.

The $5.5 million, or 24%, increase in net interest income was driven primarily
by a 28%, or $136 million increase in average earning assets to $628 million for
the year ended December 31, 2000. The increase in the earning assets, primarily
loans, is attributable to the continued calling efforts of the Company's
relationship officers and sustained economic growth in the local market served
by the Company. Average loans increased $88 million, or 20%, to $517 million in
2000 compared to $429 million in 1999.

9
The yield on average earning assets increased to 8.95% for the year ended
December 31, 2000 from 8.37% for the same period in 1999. The increase in asset
yield was primarily due to a 125 basis point increase in the prime rate since
July of 1999 and a general increase in average yields on loans and investment
securities. Average interest earning assets increased to 94.82% of total assets
in 2000 from 93.37% for the same period in 1999. The increase in net interest
income was offset by a $117 million increase in average interest bearing
liabilities to $529 million in 2000 from $412 million during the same period in
1999. The yield on interest-bearing liabilities increased to 5.21% in 2000
compared to 4.41% for the same period in 1999. This increase is primarily
attributed to the aforementioned increases in the prime rate and the addition of
$11 million in guaranteed preferred beneficial interest in EBH-subordinated
debentures.

The increase in the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities was also
attributed to a change in the mix of liabilities from lower cost liabilities,
such as interest-bearing transaction and savings accounts, to higher cost
liabilities, such as money market accounts, certificates of deposits, and
guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in EBH-subordinated debentures. Total
average interest-bearing liabilities increased to 79.92% of total average assets
for the year ended December 31, 2000 from 78.08% for the same period in 1999.

The table on page 12 sets forth, on a tax-equivalent basis, certain information
relating to the Company's average balance sheet and reflects the average yield
earned on interest-earning assets, the average cost of interest-bearing
liabilities and the resulting net interest income for each of the three years
ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998.

Fiscal 1999 Compared to Fiscal 1998
- -----------------------------------

Financial Condition

Total assets at December 31, 1999 were $615 million, an increase of $128
million, or 26%, over total assets of $488 million at December 31, 1998. Loans
were $481 million, an increase of $126 million, or 35%, over total loans of $355
million at December 31, 1998. Federal funds sold and investment securities were
$101 million, an increase of $20 million, or 24%, from total federal funds sold
and investment securities of $81 million at December 31, 1998.

Total deposits at December 31, 1999 were $542 million, an increase of $109
million, or 25%, over total deposits of $433 million at December 31, 1998. Most
of the deposit growth occurred in money market deposits and certificates of
deposit. Money market deposits grew $50 million, or 30%, during 1999.
Certificates of deposit grew $48 million or 34% during 1999. Growth in
transaction and money market deposit accounts is attributed primarily to direct
calling efforts by relationship officers. Growth in certificates of deposit is
also due to an enhanced presence in the marketplace and an increase of $16
million, or 55%, in network CDs. The Company belongs to a national network of
time depositors (primarily credit unions) who place time deposits with the
Company, typically in increments of $99,000. The Company refers to such
deposits as network CDs.

Total shareholders' equity at December 31, 1999 was $47 million, an increase of
$3 million over total shareholders' equity of $44 million at December 31, 1998.
The increase in equity is due net income of $3.7 million for the twelve months
ended December 31, 1999, and the exercise of incentive stock options by
employees, less dividends paid to shareholders, treasury stock purchases, and
other comprehensive losses.

Results of Operations

Net income was $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of
26% over net income of $2.9 million for the same period in 1998. Diluted
earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 were $0.39 and
$0.32, respectively. The Company's net income increased primarily due to growth
in interest earning assets and an increase in noninterest income offset by an
increase in interest bearing liabilities and noninterest expenses.

10
Net Interest Income

Net interest income (presented on a tax equivalent basis) was $23.1 million,
which yielded a net interest margin of 4.68%, for the year ended December 31,
1999, compared to net interest income and net interest margin of $17.9 million
and 4.56%, for the same period in 1998.

The $5.1 million, or 29%, increase in net interest income was driven by a 25%,
or $99 million, increase in average earning assets, a change in the mix of
earning assets and a decrease in the yield on interest bearing liabilities.
Average earning assets increased to $492 million for the year ended December
31, 1999. The mix of earning assets shifted from lower earning investment
securities and federal funds sold to higher yielding loans. The increase in the
earning assets and shift in mix is attributable to the continued calling efforts
of the Company's relationship officers resulting in loan growth of $101 million,
or 31%, in average loan balances during 1999 as compared to 1998 and sustained
economic growth in the local market served by the Company. Some of the increase
was offset by a lower average earning asset yield and growth in interest bearing
deposits.

Average loans as a percent of average total assets increased to 81.44% in 1999
from 77.23% in 1998. For the same periods, the yield on average loans was 8.81%
and 9.11%, respectively. The decrease in loan yield in 1999 compared to 1998
partially offset the margin benefits obtained by increasing the loan to asset
ratio during the same period.

The yield on average earning assets decreased to 8.37% for the year ended
December 31, 1999 from 8.56% for the same period in 1998. The decrease in asset
yield was primarily due to a general decrease in average yield on loans,
investment securities and federal funds sold.

The yield on interest bearing liabilities decreased to 4.41% for the year ended
December 31, 1999 from 4.79% for the same period in 1998. The yield on all
categories of deposits decreased in 1999 as compared to 1998. This drop is due
to a concerted effort by the Asset/Liability Committee to decrease the interest
paid on deposits. This general drop in yields was partially offset by deposits
shifting to higher yielding money market accounts.

(1) Average balances include non-accrual loans. The income on such loans is
included in interest but is recognized only upon receipt. Loan fees
included in interest income are approximately $1,062,000, $1,128,000 and
$739,000 for 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
(2) Nontaxable investment income is presented on a fully tax-equivalent basis
assuming a tax rate of 34%.

During 2000, an increase in the average volume of earning assets resulted in an
increase in interest income of $11,082,000. Interest income increased
$3,870,000 due to an increase in rates on earning assets. Increases in average
volume of interest-bearing demand deposits, savings and money market accounts,
time deposits and notes payable resulted in an increase in interest expense of
$6,390,000. Changes in interest rates on the average volume of interest-bearing
liabilities resulted in an increase in interest expense of $3,046,000. The net
effect of the volume and rate changes associated with all categories of
interest-earning assets during 2000 as compared to 1999 increased interest
income by $14,952,000, while the net effect of the volume and rate changes
associated with all categories of interest-bearing liabilities increased
interest expense by $9,436,000.

During 1999, an increase in the average volume of earning assets resulted in an
increase in interest income of $8,816,000, partially offset by a decrease of
$1,241,000 due to a decrease in rates on earning assets. Increases in the
average volume of interest-bearing demand deposits, savings and money market
accounts, and notes payable and other borrowing resulted in an increase in
interest expense of $3,613,000. Changes in interest rates on the average volume
of interest-bearing liabilities resulted in a decrease in interest expense of
$1,158,000. The increase in the volume of both earning assets and interest
bearing liabilities are due to the previously mentioned 26% growth the Company
experienced during 1999. The decrease in the average rate of earning assets was
a result of interest rate pressures and competition in the Company's market.
The decrease in the average rate of interest bearing liabilities was the result
of a concerted effort by the Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO") to decrease the
interest paid on deposits. The net effect of the volume and rate changes
associated with all categories of interest-earning assets during 1999 as
compared to 1998 increased interest income by $7,575,000 while the net effect of
the volume and rate changes associated with all categories of interest-bearing
liabilities increased interest expense by $2,455,000.

The following table sets forth, on a tax-equivalent basis for the periods
indicated, a summary of the changes in interest income and interest expense
resulting from changes in yield/rates and volume:

Loan Portfolio

Loans, as a group, are the largest asset and the primary source of interest
income for the Company. Diversification among different categories of loans
reduces the risks associated with any single type of loan. The following table

The Company's subsidiary banks grant commercial, residential, consumer, and
agricultural loans. In the St. Louis metropolitan and Overland Park, Kansas
areas, the banks grant commercial, residential and consumer loans primarily to
small to medium sized businesses and their owners. In the Southeast Kansas
market, loans are made to a wider range of businesses and consumers, including
farmers. Overall, the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, with no
particular concentration of credit in any one economic sector. However, a
substantial portion of the portfolio is secured by real estate. As of December
31, 2000, $377 million in loans, or 68% of the loan portfolio, involved real
estate as part or all of the collateral package, as compared to $319 million, or
66%, and $215 million, or 61%, in 1999 and 1998, respectively. As of December
31, 2000, $164 million or 43%, of the real estate secured loans for 2000, were
personal and business loans and loans on owner-occupied properties as compared
to $151 million, or 47%, and $98.9 million, or 46%, for 1999 and 1998,
respectively. Management views these types of loans as having less risk than
traditional real estate loans because the primary source of repayment for these
loans is not dependent upon the cash flow or sale of the real estate securing
the loans. When evaluating the appropriateness of the allowance for loan
losses, these loans are evaluated based on commercial considerations such as the
financial condition, cash flow and income of the borrower as well as the value

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $1,042,534, $2,496,256, and $1,360,899 in
2000, 1999, and 1998 respectively. The provision for loan loss decreased from
1999 to 2000 due to a large provision expense being recognized in 1999 related
to the classification of a large commercial credit. In December 1999, the
Company made an additional $1 million provision for loan losses for two specific
loans. During 2000, the decrease in provision reflects loan growth of $76
million during 2000 versus loan growth of $126 million during the same period in
1999.

During 1999, the increase in provision reflects an increase in loan growth and
in net loan charge offs compared to the year ended December 31, 1998. The
Company experienced loan growth of $126 million during 1999 versus loan growth
of $61 million during the same period in 1998. The Company had net loan charge
offs of $167,579 during 1999 as compared to net loan charge offs of $101,669
during 1998.

In September 2000, the Kansas bank charged off one commercial loan in the amount
of $495,000 which accounted for a substantial portion of the charged off loans
during the year. The Company has charged off a total of $1,359,000 in loans from
January 1, 1996 through December 31, 2000. Total recoveries for the same period
are $376,000, resulting in a five-year net charge-off experience of $983,000, or
0.04% per year of average loans for the same period.

The Company's credit management policy and procedures focus on identifying,
measuring and controlling credit exposure. These procedures employ a lender-
initiated system of rating credits, which is ratified in the loan approval
process and subsequently tested in internal loan reviews, external audits and
regulatory bank examinations. Basically, the system requires rating all loans at
the time they are made.

Adversely rated credits, including loans requiring close monitoring which would
not normally be considered criticized credits by regulators, are included on a
monthly loan watch list. Loans may be added to the watch list for reasons which
are temporary and correctable, such as the absence of current financial
statements of the borrower or a deficiency in loan documentation. Other loans
are added whenever any adverse circumstance is detected which might affect the
borrower's ability to meet the terms of the loan. This could be initiated by the
delinquency of a scheduled loan payment, a deterioration in the borrower's
financial condition identified in a review of periodic financial statements, a
decrease in the value of the collateral securing the loan, or a change in the
economic environment within which the borrower operates. Loans on the watch list
require detailed loan status reports prepared by the responsible officer every
four months, which are then discussed in formal meetings with the loan

16
review and loan administration staffs. Downgrades of loan risk ratings may be
initiated by the responsible loan officer at any time. However, upgrades of risk
ratings may only be made with the concurrence of the loan review and credit
administration staffs generally at the time of the formal watch list review
meetings.

Each month, loan administration provides management and the Bank Boards of
Directors with detailed lists of loans on the watch list and summaries of the
entire loan portfolio by risk rating. These are coupled with analyses of changes
in the risk profiles of the portfolios, changes in past due and nonperforming
loans and changes in watch list and classified loans over time. In this manner,
the overall increases or decreases in the levels of risk in the portfolios are
monitored continually. Factors are applied to the loan portfolios for each
category of loan risk to determine acceptable levels of allowance for loan
losses. These factors are derived primarily from the actual loss experience and
from published national surveys of norms in the industry. The calculated
allowances required for the portfolios are then compared to the actual allowance
balances to determine the provisions necessary to maintain the allowances at
appropriate levels. In addition, management exercises judgment in its analysis
of determining the overall level of the allowance for loan losses. In its
analysis, management considers the change in the portfolio, including growth and
composition, and the economic conditions of the region in which the Company
operates. Based on this quantitative and qualitative analysis, the allowance for
loan losses is adjusted. Such adjustments are reflected in the consolidated
statements of income.

The Company does not engage in foreign lending. Additionally, the Company does
not have any concentrations of loans exceeding 10% of total loan, which are not
otherwise disclosed in the loan portfolio composition table. The Company does
not have a material amount of interest-bearing assets which would have been
included in nonaccrual, past due or restructured loans if such assets were
loans.

Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable
losses in the loan portfolio. While management uses available information to
recognize loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based
on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as
an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance
for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to increase the allowance
for loan losses based on their judgments and interpretations about information
available to them at the time of their examinations.

While the Company has benefited from very low historical net charge offs during
an extended period of rapid loan growth, management remains cognizant that
historical loan loss and non-performing asset experience may not be indicative
of future results. If the experience were to deteriorate and additional
provisions for loan losses were required, future operating results would be
negatively impacted. Both management and the Board of Directors continually
monitor changes in asset quality, market conditions, concentration of credit and
other factors, all of which impact the credit risk associated with the Company's
loan portfolio.

As of December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, the Company had 49, 41, and 46 impaired
loans in the aggregate amounts of $9,091,231, $3,328,825, and $1,750,465,
respectively, all of which are considered potential problem loans. The increase
in impaired loans of $5.8 million from December 31, 1999 to December 31, 2000 is
primarily due to the classification of two large credit relationships with an
outstanding balance of $2.9 million at December 31, 2000 in addition to the
classification of certain other smaller commercial credits. Management believes
that the specific reserves on these credits is adequate at December 31, 2000.

The Company had foreclosed property in the amount of $76,680, $438,072, and
$806,072, as of December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, which are
considered nonperforming. Nonperforming assets decreased from $2,955,000 at
December 31, 1999 to $2,082,000 at December 31, 2000. Non-performing assets
increased from $1,472,000 at December 31, 1998 to $2,955,000 at December 31,
1999.

The Company's policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest on loans when
principal or interest is due and has remained unpaid for 90 days or more, unless
the Company is in the process of collecting the principal and interest due, and
is fairly certain to collect all interest.

The following table sets forth the allocation of the allowance for loan losses
by loan category as an indication of the estimated risk of loss for each loan
type. The unallocated portion of the allowance is intended to cover loss
exposure related to potential problem loans for which no specific allowance has
been estimated and for other losses in the loan portfolio deemed probable.

========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ==========
</TABLE>

Total noninterest income was $3,494,531 in 2000, representing a $100,984
decrease from 1999. Total noninterest income was $3,595,515 in 1999,
representing a $837,769 increase from 1998. The key to these differences is in
understanding the trends associated with each income category.

In connection with the adoption of SFAS 133, the Company elected to reclassify
an equity investment from held-to-maturity to trading. The Company recorded a
$197,546 gain on marking the asset to market during the second quarter of 1999,
which is treated as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. In
the fourth quarter of 1999 the Company obtained a purchase agreement for the
equity investment which resulted in a $202,454 gain. This gain was recognized as
noninterest income. The asset was sold on February 2, 2000. Management considers
this to be nonrecurring income.

The gain on sale of other real estate of $214,930 in 2000 and $130,050 in 1999
was a result of the sale of two separate parcels of foreclosed properties the
Company has owned since 1992. Management considers this to be nonrecurring
income.

The decreases in the gains on sale of mortgage loans was due to an increase in
interest rates during 1999 and 2000. Over half of the gains on sale of mortgage
loans in 1998 were due to refinancing, while the refinancing of mortgage loans
account for less than 25% of the mortgage gains in 2000. The demand for
refinanced mortgage loans dramatically decreased with the rise in interest
rates.

The Company began offering trust and financial advisory services in October
1998. The $594,810 in fees during 1999 was the result of several life insurance
and financial planning transaction fees. The $257,019 increase in fees to
$851,829 during 2000 as compared to $594,810 during 1999 was the result of
increased assets under management in the trust company and portfolio management
for the financial planners.

Income from minority investment in EMB LLC was $64,727, $2,934, and $0 during
2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. The gain (loss) from the investment in
Enterprise Fund, L.P. was $29,954, ($7,763), and ($2,199), during 2000, 1999,
and 1998, respectively. The increase in the income from investment in EMB LLC
and the investment in Enterprise Fund L.P. over the three year period was the
result of the aforementioned Merchant Banc restructuring in 1999 and a $175,000
merchant banking fee the Company recognized in September of 2000.

The increase of $478,898 in service charges on deposit accounts during 1999 was
due to a concerted effort by the Company's management to alter service charges
and other fees to stay competitive in the market place. As a result of the
rising interest rate environment in 2000, the service charges did not

19
increase in line with deposit growth. Higher interest rates resulted in higher
earnings credit on deposit accounts which offset service charges. This is
especially true on business accounts.


Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense was $22,476,544 in 2000 representing a $4,381,587 or
24% increase from 1999. Increases in salaries, payroll taxes and employee
benefits, occupancy expense, and data processing expenses are primarily due to:
1) increased activity and growth in trust and financial advisory operations
started during 1998, 2) the investment in several additional new business
development officers in the St. Louis region and additional management in the
Kansas region, and 3) normal increases associated with growth. The Company
recently implemented an Internet banking business and check imaging system to
enhance customer service. Both programs increased noninterest expense during
2000. In addition, the Company expanded its computer and data processing
infrastructure for the additional Kansas locations and communication between the
regions, which also increased expenses. During 2000, the Company expensed
approximately $496,386 in legal, accounting, travel, and other costs related to
the merger. The remaining increase is attributed to normal operating expenses
associated with growth. Other noninterest expenses were $5,173,672 for 2000, an
increase of $665,038, or 15% over 1999.

The following table depicts changes in noninterest expenses in the above
mentioned operations:

</TABLE>


Total noninterest expense was $18,094,957 in 1999 representing a $3,569,543 or
25% increase from 1998. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily
attributable to: 1) the new trust and financial advisory services started in
1998, 2) growth in the new banking facilities opened during 1997 in St. Peters
and Sunset Hills; and 3) expenses related to growth in the Company. During 1999,
the Company's trust and financial advisory division increased its staff and
other expenses to support the Company's growth in this business segment. The
Company added 35 employees to support its growth and establish its market
presence. The increases were primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits
expense, occupancy expense and other operating expenses related to the above
mentioned operations and staff additions.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $3,208,450, $2,335,408, and $1,725,403 for 2000, 1999,
and 1998, respectively. The effective tax rate was 38%, 39% and 37% for the
years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

Liquidity is provided by the Company's earning assets, including short-term
investments in federal funds sold, maturities in the loan portfolio, maturities
in the investment portfolio, amortization of term loans, and by the Company's
deposit inflows, proceeds from borrowings, and retained earnings.

The Company made certain assumptions in preparing the table above. These
assumptions included: loans will repay at historic repayment speeds; interest-
bearing demand accounts and savings accounts are interest sensitive due to
immediate repricing of remaining balance for each period presented; and fixed
maturity deposits will not be withdrawn prior to maturity. A significant
variance in actual results from one or more of these assumptions could
materially affect the results reflected in the table.

As indicated in the preceding table, the Company was asset sensitive on a
cumulative basis for all periods except the 3 to 12 month period at December 31,
2000 based on contractual maturities. In this regard, a decrease in the general
level of interest rates would generally have a negative effect on the Company's
net interest income as the repricing of the larger volume of interest sensitive
assets would create a larger reduction in interest income as compared to the
reduction in interest expense created by the repricing of

21
the smaller volume of interest sensitive liabilities. Likewise, an increase in
the general level of interest rates would have a positive effect on net interest
margin.

As a policy, the Company focuses more attention to the cumulative GAP ratios
than any specific periods ratios since the cumulative GAP takes into account the
repricing nature of the assets and liabilities for a specific period plus all
previous periods which would have been affected by interest rate movements.

ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
----------------------------------------------------------

Market Risk

The Company's exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the
ALCO. Interest rate risk is the potential of economic losses due to future
interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of
future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair market values. The
objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust the
balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing
income. Management realizes certain risks are inherent and that the goal is to
identify and minimize those risks. Tools used by management include the standard
GAP report subject to different rate shock scenarios. At December 31, 2000, the
rate shock scenario models indicated that annual net interest income would
change by less than 5% should rates rise or fall within 200 basis points from
their current level over a one year period.

Since inception, the Company has experienced rapid loan and deposit growth
primarily due to aggressive direct calling efforts of relationship officers and
sustained economic growth in the local markets served by the Company. Management
has pursued closely-held businesses whose management desires a close working
relationship with a locally-managed, full-service bank. Due to the
relationships developed with these customers, management views large deposits
from this source as a stable deposit base. Additionally, the Company belongs to
a national network of time depositors (primarily credit unions) who place time
deposits with the Company, typically in increments of $99,000. The Company used
this source of deposits for over five years and considers it to be a stable
source of deposits that allows the Company to acquire funds at a cost below its
alternative cost of funds. There were $30 million at December 31, 2000, $45
million at December 31, 1999 and $29 million at December 31, 1998 in deposits
from the national network.

The following table sets forth the amount and maturity of certificates of

The asset/liability management process, which involves management of the
components of the balance sheet to allow assets and liabilities to reprice at
approximately the same time, is an ever-changing process essential to minimizing
the effect of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income.

Capital Adequacy

Risk-based capital guidelines for financial institutions were adopted by
regulatory authorities effective January 1, 1991. These guidelines were designed
to relate regulatory capital requirements to the risk profile of the specific
institution and to provide for uniform requirements among the various
regulators. Currently, the risk-based capital guidelines require the Company to
meet a minimum total capital ratio of 8.0% of which at least 4.0% must consist
of Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital generally consists of (a) common shareholders'
equity (excluding the unrealized market value adjustments on the available-for-
sale securities), (b) qualifying perpetual preferred stock and related surplus
subject to certain limitations specified by the FDIC, and (c) minority interests
in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less (d) goodwill, (e)
mortgage servicing rights within certain limits, and (f) any other intangible
assets and investments in subsidiaries that the FDIC determines should be
deducted from Tier 1 capital. The FDIC also requires a minimum leverage ratio of
3.0%, defined as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets for banking
organizations deemed the strongest and most highly rated by banking regulators.
A higher minimum leverage ratio is required of less highly rated banking
organizations. Total capital, a measure of capital adequacy, includes Tier 1
capital, allowance for loan losses, and debt considered equity for regulatory
capital purposes.

The following table summarizes the Company's risk-based capital and leverage
ratios at the dates indicated:

December 31,
----------------------
2000 1999 1998
------ ------ ------

Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets 10.60% 11.15% 9.89%
Total capital to risk weighted assets 11.79 12.35 10.97
Leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to
average assets) 9.41 10.62 9.16
Tangible capital to tangible assets 9.75 7.68 8.63


At December 31, 2000, the Company's Tier 1 capital was $62 million compared to
$56 million and $42 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. At
December 31, 2000, the Company's total capital was $69 million compared to $62
million and $44 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Effect of Inflation

Persistent high rates of inflation can have a significant effect on the reported
financial condition and results of operations of all industries. However, the
asset and liability structure of commercial banks is substantially different
from that of an industrial company in that virtually all assets and liabilities
of commercial banks are monetary in nature. Accordingly, changes in interest
rates may have a significant impact on a commercial bank's performance. Interest
rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as
the prices of goods and services. Inflation does have an impact on the growth of
total assets in the banking industry, often resulting in a need to increase
equity capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate equity-to-
assets ratio.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
--------------------------

The Company and the Banks are subject to state and federal banking laws and
regulations which impose specific requirements or restrictions on and provide
for general regulatory oversight with respect to virtually all aspects of
operations. These laws and regulations are generally intended to protect
depositors, not shareholders. To the extent that the following summary describes
statutory or regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the particular statutory and regulatory provisions. Any change in applicable
laws or regulations may have a material effect on the business and prospects of
the Company. The numerous regulations and policies promulgated by the regulatory
authorities create a

27
difficult and ever-changing atmosphere in which to operate. The Company and the
Bank commit substantial resources in order to comply with these statutes,
regulations and policies. The Company is unable to predict the nature or the
extent of the effect on its business and earnings that fiscal or monetary
policies, economic control, or new federal or state legislation may have in the
future.

Federal Bank Holding Company Regulation

The Company is a bank holding company under the definition of the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956 (the "BHCA"). Under the BHCA, the Company is subject to
periodic examination by the Federal Reserve and is required to file periodic
reports of its operations and such additional information as the Federal Reserve
may require. The Company's and the Banks' activities are limited to banking,
managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or performing services for
its subsidiaries, or engaging in any other activity that the Federal Reserve
determines to be closely related to banking.

Investments, Control and Activities. With certain limited exceptions, the BHCA
requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Federal
Reserve before (i) acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank, (ii)
acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any
bank if after such acquisition it would own or control more than 5% of the
voting shares of such bank (unless it already owns or controls the majority of
such shares), or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding
company. Federal legislation permits bank holding companies to acquire control
of banks throughout the United States.

In addition, and subject to certain exceptions, the BHCA and the Change in Bank
Control Act, together with regulations thereunder, require Federal Reserve
approval (or, depending on the circumstances, no notice of disapproval) prior to
any person or company acquiring "control" of a bank holding company, such as the
Company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company
acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding
company. Under Federal Reserve regulations applicable to the Company, control
will be refutably presumed to exist if a person acquires at least 10% of the
outstanding shares of any class of voting securities once the Company registers
the common stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The regulations
provide a procedure for challenge of the rebuttable control presumption.

Under the BHCA, the Company is generally prohibited from engaging in, or
acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any
company engaged in, nonbanking activities, unless the Federal Reserve, by order
of regulation, has found those activities to be so closely related to banking or
managing or controlling banks as to be a related activity. Some of the
activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation to be proper
incidents to the business of banking include investment in and management of
Small Business Investment Companies, making or servicing loans and certain types
of leases, engaging in certain insurance and brokerage activities, performing
data processing services, acting in certain circumstances as a fiduciary or
investment or financial advisor, owning savings associations, and making
investments in limited projects designed primarily to promote community welfare.

Recent Developments: The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA") was signed into law on
November 12, 1999. This major banking legislation now permits affiliation among
depository institutions and entities whose activities are considered "financial
in nature" or incidental or complementary to such activities. Activities which
are expressly considered financial in nature include, among other things,
securities and insurance underwriting and agency, investment management and
merchant banking. With certain exceptions, GLBA similarly expanded the
authorized activities of subsidiaries of national banks (and indirectly through
the wild card powers provisions of state law, Missouri banks). These provisions
became effective March 11, 2000.

In general, these expanded powers are reserved to bank holding companies, to be
known as financial holding companies ("FHC") and banks, where all depository
institutions affiliated with them are well capitalized and well managed based on
applicable banking regulations and meet specified Community Reinvestment Act
ratings. GLBA authorizes the Federal Reserve and the United States Treasury, in
cooperation with one another, to determine what additional activities are
permissible as financial in nature. Maintenance of activities which are
financial in nature will require FHC's and banks to continue

28
to satisfy applicable well capitalized and well managed requirements. Bank
holding companies which do not qualify for FHC status are limited to non-banking
activities deemed closely related to banking prior to adoption of GLBA.

In addition to the creation of FHC's, GLBA establishes a scheme of "functional
regulation" of financial services businesses which is intended to reflect the
primacy of regulation over activities and entities by regulators routinely
responsible for such activities and entities and with the appropriate expertise
in the area of regulation. This applies both in allocating responsibility for
supervising different companies within an FHC and in supervising different
activities within the same company. In this connection, GLBA clarifies the
regulation by states of insurance products sold by depository institutions,
repeals some of the exemptions enjoyed by banks under federal securities laws in
relation to securities offered by banks and licensing of broker-dealers and
investment advisors.

GLBA also adopts restrictions on financial institutions regarding the sharing of
customer non-public personal information with non-affiliated third parties
unless the customer has had an opportunity to opt out of the disclosure. GLBA
also imposes periodic disclosure requirements concerning the financial
institution's policies and practices regarding data sharing with affiliated and
non-affiliated parties.

This act will be the subject of extensive rule making by federal banking
regulators and others. The effects of this legislation will only begin to be
understood over the next several years and at this time cannot be predicted with
any certainty.

Source of Strength; Cross-Guarantee. In accordance with Federal Reserve policy,
the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to the Bank and
to commit resources to support the Bank in circumstances in which the Company
might not otherwise do so. Under the BHCA, the Federal Reserve may require a
bank holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control of a
nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal
Reserve's determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk
to the financial soundness or stability of any subsidiary depository institution
of the bank holding company. Further, federal bank regulatory authorities have
additional discretion to require a bank holding company to divest itself of any
bank or nonbank subsidiary if the agency determines that divestiture may aid the
depository institution's financial condition.

Bank Regulation

General. As of December 31, 2000, the Company is the holding company for
Enterprise Bank, a Missouri chartered bank, and Enterprise Banking N.A., a
nationally chartered bank. The Missouri Bank is not a member of the Federal
Reserve system, while the Kansas bank is a member. The Missouri Division of
Finance and the FDIC are primary regulators for the Missouri Bank. The Kansas
Bank is subject to regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of Currency
("OCC") These regulatory authorities regulate or monitor all areas of the Banks'
operations, including security devices and procedures, adequacy of
capitalization and loss reserves, loans, investments, borrowings, deposits,
mergers, issuance of securities, payment of dividends, interest rates payable on
deposits, interest rates or fees chargeable on loans, establishment of branches,
corporate reorganizations, maintenance of books and records, and adequacy of
staff training to carry on safe lending and deposit gathering practices. The
Bank must maintain certain capital ratios and is subject to limitations on
aggregate investments in real estate, bank premises, and furniture and fixtures.

Transactions With Affiliates and Insiders. The Banks are subject to the
provisions of Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act, which place limits on the
amount of loans or extensions of credit to, investments in, or certain other
transactions with, affiliates and on the amount of advances to third parties
collateralized by the securities or obligations of affiliates. In addition, most
of these loans and certain other transactions must be secured in prescribed
amounts. The Banks are also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the
Federal Reserve Act that, among other things, prohibit an institution from
engaging in certain transactions with certain affiliates unless the transactions
are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to such
institution or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable

29
transactions with nonaffiliated companies. The Banks are subject to certain
restrictions on extensions of credit to executive officers, directors, certain
principal shareholders, and their related interests. Such extensions of credit
(i) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and
collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with
third parties and (ii) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment
or present other unfavorable features.

Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") requires
that, in connection with examinations of financial institutions within its
jurisdiction, the FDIC shall evaluate the record of the financial institutions
in meeting the credit needs of their local communities, including low and
moderate income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and sound operation of
those institutions. These factors are also considered in evaluating mergers,
acquisitions, and applications to open a branch or facility. The Company has a
satisfactory rating under CRA.

Other Regulations. Interest and certain other charges collected or contracted
for by the Bank are subject to state usury laws and certain federal laws
concerning interest rates. The Bank's loan operations are also subject to
certain federal laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the federal
Truth-In-Lending Act governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer
borrowers; the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975 requiring financial
institutions to provide information to enable the public and public officials to
determine whether a financial institution is fulfilling its obligation to help
meet the housing needs of the community it serves; the Equal Credit Opportunity
Act prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibited
factors in extending credit; the Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978 governing
these and provision of information to credit reporting agencies; the Fair Debt
Collection Act governing the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by
collection agencies; and the rules and regulations of the various federal
agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing such federal laws. The
deposit operations of the Banks are also subject to the Right to Financial
Privacy Act, which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer
financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative
subpoenas of financial records, and the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and
Regulation E issued by the Federal Reserve Board to implement that act, which
governs automatic deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts and
customers' rights and liabilities arising from the use of automated teller
machines and other electronic banking services.

Deposit Insurance. The deposits of the Banks are currently insured by the FDIC
to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor, subject to certain aggregation rules.
The FDIC establishes rates for the payment of premiums by federally insured
banks for deposit insurance. An insurance fund (BIF) is maintained for
commercial banks, with insurance premiums from the industry used to offset
losses from insurance payouts when banks and thrifts fail. The FDIC has adopted
a risk-based deposit insurance premium system for all insured depository
institutions, including the Banks, which requires premiums from a depository
institution based upon its capital levels and risk profile, as determined by its
primary federal regulator on a semiannual basis.

Dividends

The principal source of the Company's cash revenues comes from dividends
received from the Banks. The amount of dividends that may be paid by the Banks
to the Company depends on the Banks earnings and capital position and is limited
by federal and state law, regulations, and policies.

Capital Regulations

The federal bank regulatory authorities have adopted risk-based capital
guidelines for banks and bank holding companies that are designed to make
regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profile
among banks and bank holding companies, account for off-balance-sheet exposure,
and minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. The resulting capital
ratios represent qualifying capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted
assets and off-balance-sheet items. The guidelines are minimums, and the federal
regulators have noted that banks and bank holding companies contemplating
significant expansion programs should not allow expansion to diminish their
capital ratios and should maintain ratios well in excess of the minimums. The
current guidelines require all bank holding companies and federally-regulated
banks to maintain a minimum risk-based total capital ratio, a portion of which
must be Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital includes common shareholders' equity,
qualifying

30
perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests in equity accounts of
consolidated subsidiaries, but excludes goodwill and most other intangibles and
excludes the allowance for loan and lease losses. Tier 2 capital includes the
excess of any preferred stock not included in Tier 1 capital, mandatory
convertible securities, hybrid capital instruments, subordinated debt and
intermediate term-preferred stock, and general reserves for loan and lease
losses up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.

Under these guidelines, banks' and bank holding companies' assets are given
risk-weights of 0%, 20%, 50% or 100%. In addition, certain off-balance-sheet
items are given credit conversion factors to convert them to asset equivalent
amounts to which an appropriate risk-weight will apply. These computations
result in the total risk-weighted assets. Most loans are assigned to the 100%
risk category, except for first mortgage loans fully secured by residential
property and, under certain circumstance, residential construction loans, both
of which carry a 50% rating. Most investment securities are assigned to the 20%
category, except for municipal or state revenue bonds, which have a 50% rating,
and direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States
Treasury or United States Government agencies, which have a 0% rating.

The federal bank regulatory authorities have also implemented a leverage ratio,
which is Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total assets less
intangibles, to be used as a supplement to the risk-based guidelines. The
principal objective of the leverage ratio is to place a constraint on the
maximum degree to which a bank holding company may leverage its equity capital
base.

ITEM 13: CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company and the Bank have, and expect to continue to have, banking and other
transactions in the ordinary course of business with directors and executive
officers of the Company and their affiliates, including members of their
families or corporations, partnerships or other organizations in which such
directors or executive officers have a controlling interest, on substantially
the same terms (including price, or interest rates and collateral) as those
prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. Such
transactions are not expected to involve more than the normal risk of
collectibility nor present other unfavorable features to the Company and the
Bank. The Bank is subject to limits on the aggregate amount it can lend to the
Bank's and the Company's directors and officers as a group. This limit is
currently equal to the entity's unimpaired capital plus reserve for loan losses.
Loans to individual directors and officers must also comply with the Bank's
lending policies and statutory lending limits, and directors with a personal
interest in any loan application are excluded from the consideration of such
loan application.

Independent Auditors' Report


The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Enterbank Holdings, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Enterbank
Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2000 and 1999,
and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, cash
flows, and comprehensive income for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2000. 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 auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 Enterbank Holdings,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


NOTE 1--ORGANIZATION

On May 9, 1995, Enterbank Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") was formed as a bank
holding company. Enterbank Holdings, Inc. exchanged 1,463,400 shares of
Enterbank Holdings, Inc. for all 73,170 (100%) of outstanding shares of
Enterprise Bank in a twenty-for-one stock exchange. The merger represented a
combination of entities under common control and, accordingly, was accounted for
in a manner similar to a pooling of interest. On September 29, 1999, the Company
completed a 3 for 1 stock split in the form of a stock dividend. In October,
2000, the Company changed its status from a bank holding company to a financial
holding company.

Additionally, Enterprise Capital Resources, Inc. ("ECR") was formed as a small
business investment company in 1995 and, on May 11, 1995, Enterbank Holdings,
Inc. acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of ECR. Subsequent to December 31,
1997, ECR changed its name to Enterprise Merchant Banc, Inc. ("Merchant Banc").

In 1997, the Company organized Enterprise Trust ("Trust") as a division of the
Bank to provide fee-based trust, personal financial planning, estate planning,
and corporate planning services to the Company's target market. The Company
entered into solicitation and referral agreements with Moneta Group, Inc., a
financial planning company, as part of the organization of Trust. In 1998,
Trust obtained trust powers. The Company renegotiated the agreements with
Moneta with the introduction of trust services.

In 1999, the Company formed EBH Capital Trust I ("EBH Trust"). EBH Trust is a
Delaware business trust created for the single purpose of offering trust
preferred securities and purchasing the junior subordinated debentures of the
Company.

On June 23, 2000, the Company completed the merger transaction with Commercial
Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. located in Overland Park, Kansas. Commercial Guaranty
Bancshares, Inc. ("CGB") is the bank holding company for First Commercial Bank,
N.A. ("FCB"). The merger was a tax-free exchange utilizing the pooling of
interests method of accounting. On January 1, 2001, First Commercial Bank,
N.A., changed its name to Enterprise Banking, N.A.

NOTE 2--MERGER BETWEEN ENTERBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND COMMERCIAL GUARANTY
BANCSHARES, INC.

On June 23, 2000, the Company completed the merger transaction between
Commercial Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. ("CGB"), the bank holding company for First
Commercial Bank, N.A., headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas, and Enterbank
Holdings, Inc. The Company issued 1,794,264 shares of its common stock in
exchange for 100% of the outstanding common stock of CGB. The merger was a tax-
free reorganization for federal income tax purposes and was accounted for as a
pooling of interests; therefore, all recorded amounts have been restated to
reflect this acquisition.

NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company provides a full range of banking services to individual and
corporate customers located within St. Louis, Missouri and the surrounding
communities through its subsidiary, Enterprise Bank, Missouri (the Missouri
Bank) and the Kansas Metropolitan and Southeast Kansas markets through
Enterprise Banking, N.A. (the Kansas Bank), collectively (the Banks). The
Company is subject to competition from other financial and nonfinancial
institutions providing financial services in the markets served by the Company's
subsidiaries. Additionally, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the
regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic
examinations by those regulatory agencies.

The more significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation
of the consolidated financial statements are summarized below:

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have
been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America and conform to predominant practices within the banking
industry. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions which significantly affect the
reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Estimates which are
particularly susceptible to change in a short period of time include the
determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of real estate
acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of amounts due from
borrowers on loans. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company; its
banking subsidiaries, Enterprise Bank, Missouri (100% owned), Enterprise
Banking, N.A. (100% owned) and its merchant banking company, Merchant Banc (100%
owned). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Investments in Debt and Equity Securities

The Company currently classifies investments in debt and equity securities as
follows:

Trading - includes securities which the Company has bought and held
principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term.

Held to maturity - includes debt securities which the Company has the
positive intent and ability to hold until maturity.

Available for sale - includes debt and marketable equity securities not
classified as held to maturity or trading (i.e., investments which the
Company has no present plans to sell but may be sold in the future under
different circumstances).

Debt securities classified as held to maturity are carried at amortized cost,
adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Unrealized
holding gains and losses for held to maturity securities are excluded from
earnings and shareholders' equity. Debt and equity securities classified as
available for sale are carried at estimated fair value. Unrealized holding
gains and losses for available for sale securities are excluded from earnings
and reported as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders' equity
until realized. All previous fair value adjustments included in the separate
component of shareholders' equity are reversed upon sale. Debt and equity
securities classified as trading are carried at estimated fair value. The
realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in
noninterest income.

Transfers of securities between categories are recorded at fair value at the
date of transfer. Unrealized holding gains or losses associated with transfers
of securities from the held to maturity category to the available for sale
category are recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity.

A decline in the market value of any available for sale or held to maturity
security below cost that is deemed other than temporary results in a charge to
earnings and the establishment of a new cost basis for the security.

For securities in the held to maturity and available for sale categories,
premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the lives of the
respective securities as an adjustment to yield using the interest method.
Dividend and interest income is recognized when earned. Realized gains and
losses for securities classified as trading, available for sale and held to
maturity are included in earnings and are derived using the specific
identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.

Loans Held for Sale

During 1997, the Company began mortgage banking operations. Mortgage banking
activities include the origination of residential mortgage loans for sale to
various investors. Mortgage loans are originated and intended for sale in the
secondary market, principally under programs with the Government National
Mortgage Association (GNMA) or the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA).
Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value,
which is determined on a specific identification method. The Company does not
retain servicing on any loans originated and sold, nor did the Company have any
capitalized mortgage servicing rights at December 31, 2000.

Interest and Fees on Loans

Interest income on loans is accrued and credited to income based on the
principal amount outstanding. The recognition of interest income is
discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days past due or a significant deterioration
in the borrower's credit has occurred which, in management's opinion, negatively
impacts the collectibility of the loan. Subsequent interest payments received
on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the
collectibility of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as
interest income. Loans are returned to accrual status when management believes
full collectibility of principal and interest is expected.

The Company defers the recognition of loan origination fees, net of the cost
associated with originating such loans. Deferred loan fees are accreted into
income over the contractual life of the loan using the straight-line method,
which approximates the interest method.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Loans and Allowance For Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is increased by provisions charged to expense and
is available to absorb charge offs, net of recoveries. Management utilizes a
systematic, documented approach in determining the appropriate level of the
allowance for loan losses. Management's approach, which provides for general
and specific allowances, is based on current economic conditions, past losses,
collection experience, risk characteristics of the portfolio, assessments of
collateral values by obtaining independent appraisals for significant
properties, and such other factors which, in management's judgment, deserve
current recognition in estimating loan losses.

Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable
losses in the loan portfolio. While management uses available information to
recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary
based on changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process,
periodically review the Bank's loan portfolio. Such agencies may require the
Bank to add to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments and
interpretations of information available to them at the time of their
examinations.

Accounting for Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable the Banks will be unable to
collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the
contractual terms of the loan agreement. When measuring impairment, the
expected future cash flows of an impaired loan are discounted at the loan's
effective interest rate. Alternatively, impairment is measured by reference to
an observable market price, if one exists, or the fair value of the collateral
for a collateral-dependent loan. Regardless of the measurement method used,
historically, the Bank measures impairment based on the fair value of the
collateral when foreclosure is probable. Additionally, impairment of a
restructured loan is measured by discounting the total expected future cash flow
at the loan's effective rate of interest as stated in the original loan
agreement. The Banks recognize interest income on nonaccrual loans only when
received and on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest as earned.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned represents property acquired through foreclosure or
deeded to the Company's subsidiary banks in lieu of foreclosure on loans on
which the borrowers have defaulted as to the payment of principal and interest.
Other real estate owned is recorded on an individual asset basis at the lower of
cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Subsequent reductions in fair
value are expensed or recorded in a valuation reserve account through a
provision against income. Subsequent increases in the fair value are recorded
through a reversal of the valuation reserve, but not below zero.

Gains and losses resulting from the sale of other real estate owned are credited
or charged to current period earnings. Costs of maintaining and operating other
real estate owned are expensed as incurred, and expenditures to complete or
improve other real estate owned properties are capitalized if the expenditures
are expected to be recovered upon ultimate sale of the property.

Fixed Assets

Buildings, leasehold improvements, and furniture, fixtures, and equipment are
stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization is computed using
the straight-line method over their respective estimated useful lives.
Furniture, fixtures and equipment is depreciated over three to ten years and
buildings and leasehold improvements over ten to forty years.

ENTERBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Goodwill

Banks acquired and recorded under the purchase method are recorded at the fair
value of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date, and results of
operations are included from that date. Excess of purchase price over the fair
value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 15 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including goodwill and premises and equipment, are reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying
amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. The impairment
review includes a comparison of future cash flows expected to be generated by
the asset or group of assets with their associated carrying value. If the
carrying value of the asset or group of assets exceeds expected cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest changes), an impairment loss is recognized to
the extent the carrying amount exceeds expected cash flows.

Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated federal income tax returns.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled.

Cash Flow Information

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers cash and due from
banks and federal funds sold to be cash and cash equivalents.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to conform to
the present year presentation.

Stock Options

The Corporation accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with the
provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. As such, compensation
expense is recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the
underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. The Company provides pro forma
net income and pro forma net income per share disclosures for employee stock
option grants made in 1995 and future years as if the fair-value-based method
defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation, had been applied.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Effective April 1, 1999, the Company adopted SFAS 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes
standards for derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for
hedging activities. It requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments
at fair value. The Company currently does not have any derivative instruments
or engage in hedging activities.

NOTE 4--EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share data is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share gives effect to the increase in the average shares
outstanding which would have resulted from the exercise of dilutive stock
options and warrants. The components of basic earnings per share for the years
ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998 are as follows:

NOTE 5--REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS

The Company's subsidiary banks are subject to regulations by regulatory
authorities, which require the maintenance of minimum capital standards, which
may affect the amount of dividends the Company's subsidiary banks can pay.

At December 31, 2000 and 1999, approximately $3,533,000 and $1,038,000,
respectively, of cash and due from banks represented required reserves on
deposits maintained by the Company's subsidiary banks in accordance with Federal
Reserve Bank requirements.

There were no sales of investments in debt and equity securities for the years
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. Proceeds from the sales of securities during
1998 were $3,351,573. Gross gains of $20,256 were realized on those sales.
Debt and equity securities having a carrying value of $14,481,015 and
$17,210,741 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, were pledged as
collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes as required by law.

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank system administered by the Federal
Housing Finance Board, the Bank is required to maintain an investment in the
capital stock of its respective Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) in an amount equal
to the greater of 1% of the aggregate outstanding balance of loans secured by
dwelling units at the beginning of each year or .3% of its total assets. The
FHLB stock is recorded at cost which represents redemption value. The Missouri
Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines, while the Kansas
Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka.

In connection with the adoption of SFAS 133, the Company elected to reclassify
an equity investment from held to maturity to trading. The Company recorded a
$197,546 gain on marking the asset to market during the second quarter of 1999,
which is treated as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. In
the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company obtained a purchase agreement for the
equity investment which resulted in a $202,454 gain in the fair value. This
gain was recognized as noninterest income. The asset was subsequently sold on
February 2, 2000 for $910,500.

throughout its service areas, which consists primarily of the immediate area in
which the Banks are located. The Company has a diversified loan portfolio, with
no particular concentration of credit in any one economic sector; however, a
substantial portion of the portfolio is concentrated in and secured by real
estate. The ability of the Company's borrowers to honor their contractual
obligations is dependent upon the local economy and its effect on the real
estate market.

Following is a summary of activity for the year ended December 31, 2000 of loans
to executive officers and directors or to entities in which such individuals had
beneficial interests as a shareholder, officer, or director. Such loans were
made in the normal course of business on substantially the same terms, including
interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with other customers and did not involve more than the normal risk
of collectibility.

A valuation allowance would be provided on deferred tax assets when it is more
likely than not that some portion of the assets will not be realized. The
Company has not established a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2000, due
to management's belief that all criteria for recognition have been met,
including the existence of a history of taxes paid sufficient to support the
realization of the deferred tax assets.

NOTE 14--REGULATORY MATTERS

The Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate certain mandatory - and possible additional, discretionary - actions by
regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
Banks' financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Banks must meet specific
capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Banks' assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory
accounting practices. The Banks' capital amounts and classification are also
subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk
weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table
below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1
capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2000, that
the Banks meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2000, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized
the Missouri Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action. As of December 31, 2000, the most recent notification from
the OCC categorized the Kansas Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized,
the Banks must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1
leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events
since that notification that management believes have changed the institutions'
category.

The Company's and Banks' actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in
the table.

Stock Options Plans

At December 31, 2000, the Company had five qualified incentive and two
nonqualified stock option plans for the benefit of employees and directors of
Enterbank Holdings and subsidiaries. Plan I was adopted on April 20, 1988 with
432,000 options. As of December 31, 2000, Plan I had no options outstanding and
no options available for future grant. Plan II was adopted on April 25, 1990
with 225,000 options. Plan II had 187,200 options outstanding and no options
available for grant. Plan III was adopted on June 19, 1996 with 600,000 options.
Plan III has 564,800 options outstanding and 7,000 options available for future
grants. Plan IV was adopted on April 28, 1999 with 600,000 options. Plan IV has
162,950 options outstanding and 437,050 available for future grants. Plan V is
discussed below.

The Company inherited two stock option plans with the CGB merger completed in
June of 2000. The stock option plans provide qualified and nonqualified options
to certain officers and directors for up to 273,220 common shares of the
Company. These options were fully vested upon grant. The options are exercisable
for ten years and five years for the qualified and nonqualified options,
respectively. The CGB plans have 201,961 options outstanding and no options
available for future grant.

In 1998, the Company adopted by Board Approval a nonqualified stock option plan
("the Nonqualified Plan"), which sets aside up to 105,000 shares of Company
common stock to grant options to certain key employees of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries. There are limitations as to the number of options which my be
granted to any individual and additional restrictions for options which may be
granted to any individual who is also a ten percent shareholder. The purchase
price for any options granted under the Nonqualified Plan will be determined
based upon the market value of the common stock at the time such options are
granted. At December 31, 2000, the Nonqualified Plan had 85,500 options
outstanding and 19,500 options available for future grants.

risk-free interest rate of 5.50%, 5.46%, 5.40% and 4.67% for February, June,
August and September, respectively; a dividend yield of 0.67%; vesting period
for 5 years; expected lives of 10 years; and volatility of 27.23%. The weighted
average fair value of the options granted in 1998 was $4.56.

ENTERBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

On April 1, 1999, the Company adopted a Stock Appreciation Rights ("SAR") Plan.
This Plan replaces the previous form of cash compensation for directors of the
Company and its subsidiaries and awards vest based upon attendance and unit
performance. Under the plan, the Company has the option to pay vested SARs
either in the form of cash or Company common stock. As of December 31, 2000,
there were 90,000 SARs outstanding.

Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted a 401(k) thrift plan which covers
substantially all full-time employees over the age of 21. The amount charged to
expense for contributions to the plan was $290,423 for 2000, $170,152 for 1999,
and $153,621 for 1998.

NOTE 18--LITIGATION

Various legal claims have arisen during the normal course of business which, in
the opinion of management, after discussion with legal counsel, will not result
in any material liability.

NOTE 19--DISCLOSURES ABOUT FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Banks issue financial instruments with off balance sheet risk in the normal
course of the business of meeting the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit. These instruments may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit
and interest-rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated
balance sheets.

The Company's extent of involvement and potential exposure to credit loss in the
event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the
contractual amount of these instruments. The Banks use the same credit policies
in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for financial
instruments included on its consolidated balance sheets.

The contractual amount of off-balance-sheet financial instruments as of December
31, 2000 and 1999 is as follows:

2000 1999
------------ ------------

Commitments to extend credit $269,022,511 $242,253,117
Standby letters of credit 11,806,101 12,370,773
============ ============

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. Of the total commitments to extend credit at December
31, 2000, approximately $21,820,731 represents fixed rate loan commitments.
Since certain of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total
commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The
Banks evaluate each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The
amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Banks upon extension
of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower.
Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, premises
and equipment, and real estate.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Banks to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These standby letters
of credit are primarily issued to support contractual obligations of the Banks'
customers. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially
the same as the risk involved in extending loans to customers.

SFAS 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, extends
existing fair value disclosure for some financial instruments by requiring
disclosure of the fair value of such financial instruments, both assets and
liabilities recognized and not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

</TABLE>

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such
value:

Cash and Other Short-term Instruments

For cash and due from banks, federal funds sold (purchased), interest-bearing
deposits, and accrued interest receivable (payable), the carrying amount is a
reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time
period.

Investments in Debt and Equity Securities

Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, using the
specific identification method.

Loans, net

The fair value of adjustable-rate loans approximates cost. The fair value of
fixed-rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the
current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar
credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, money
market accounts and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the
reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is
estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining
maturities.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is based on the discounted
value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using rates on
borrowed money with similar remaining maturities.

58
ENTERBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in EBH-Subordinated Debentures

Fair value of guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in EBH-subordinated
debentures is based on market prices as of December 31, 2000. The fair value as
of December 31, 1999 is assumed to equal carrying amount since the offering was
completed in the fourth quarter of 1999.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit

The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are
estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements,
taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the
counterparties drawing on such financial instruments, and the present
creditworthiness of such counterparties. The Company believes such commitments
have been made on terms which are competitive in the markets in which it
operates; however, no premium or discount is offered thereon and accordingly,
the Company has not assigned a value to such instruments for purposes of this
disclosure.

Limitations

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 Company's entire holdings of a particular financial
instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's
financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding
future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk
characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These
estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment, and therefore, cannot be determined with precision.
Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance-sheet financial
instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future
business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered
financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the
realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on
fair value estimates and have not been considered in many of the estimates.

NOTE 20--LINE OF BUSINESS RESULTS

To help the Company more effectively manage the new geographic area in which it
operates, management has taken a regional management approach since the merger
took place. All earlier periods have been restated to reflect this change in
management evaluation. The regions are evaluated separately on their individual
performance, as well as their contribution to the Company as a whole. The
corporate, other intercompany, and reclassifications segment include the holding
company, merchant banking activities and trust preferred securities activities.
The Company incurs general corporate expenses and owns Enterprise Bank,
Missouri, Enterprise Banking, N.A. and Enterprise Merchant Banc, Inc. Enterprise
Merchant Banc, Inc. offers merchant banking and venture capital services through
its investment in Enterprise Merchant Banc LLC. The majority of the activity for
the Kansas City region occurs in Enterprise Banking, N.A., while the majority of
the activity for the St. Louis region occurs in Enterprise Bank, Missouri. The
Banks provide similar products and services in two defined geographic areas. The
products and services offered include a broad range of commercial and personal
banking services, including certificates of deposit, individual retirement and
other time deposit accounts, checking and other demand deposit accounts,
interest checking accounts, savings accounts and money market accounts. Loans
include commercial, financial and agricultural, real estate construction and
development, commercial and residential real estate, consumer and installment
loans. Other financial services include mortgage banking, debit and credit
cards, automatic teller machines, internet account access, safe deposit boxes,
trust and private banking services and cash management services. The revenues
generated by each business segment consist primarily of interest income,
generated from the loan and investment security portfolios, and service charges
and fees, generated from the deposit products and services. The products and
services are offered to customers primarily within their respective geographic
areas, with the exception of loan participations executed between the subsidiary
banks. The St. Louis region includes Enterprise Trust, which provides trust
services and financial planning services.
