ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Organization

CPB Inc. (the "Company") is a Hawaii corporation organized on February
1, 1982 pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization and Agreement of Merger as a bank
holding company and is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as
amended. The Company's principal business is to serve as a holding company for
its sole subsidiary, Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank was
incorporated in its present form in the State of Hawaii on March 16, 1982 in
connection with the holding company reorganization, and its predecessor entity
was incorporated in the State of Hawaii on January 15, 1954. The Bank's
deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to
applicable limits. The Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System.
Based on total consolidated assets at December 31, 1995, the Company was the
fourth largest bank holding company in Hawaii.

The Bank owns 100% of the outstanding stock of CPB Properties, Inc.
("CPB Properties"), a company which is the managing partner and 50% owner of
CKSS Associates ("CKSS"), a Hawaii limited partnership. CKSS owns Central
Pacific Plaza, in which the Company's and Bank's headquarters and main office
are located. CKSS also developed the Kaimuki Plaza, in which one of the Bank's
branch offices is located. In addition, CPB Properties owns the properties on
which one of the Bank's branch offices and the Bank's operations center are
located, as well as the property underlying the Kaimuki Plaza. See "ITEM 2.
PROPERTIES."

The principal office of the Company is located at 220 South King
Street, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813, and its telephone number is (808) 544-0500.

Banking Services

The Bank is a full-service commercial bank which currently has 24
banking offices located throughout the State of Hawaii. Its administrative and
main office is located in Honolulu, and there are 17 other branches on the
island of Oahu. In addition, the Bank maintains one branch on the island of
Maui, two branches on the island of Kauai and three branches on the island of
Hawaii. In 1995, the Bank opened three in-store branches, two in Daiei Stores
on the island of Oahu and one in Sure Save Supermarket in Hilo, on the island of
Hawaii.

Through its network of banking offices, the Bank emphasizes
personalized services and offers a full range of banking services
to small- and medium-sized businesses, professionals and individuals in Hawaii.

3
The Bank offers a variety of deposit instruments.  These include
personal and business checking and savings accounts, including interest-bearing
negotiable order of withdrawal ("NOW") accounts, money market accounts and time
certificates of deposit.

The Bank engages in a broad range of lending activities including the
granting of commercial, consumer and real estate loans, with particular emphasis
on loans with short- to medium-term maturities and adjustable interest rates.
The Bank offers inventory and accounts receivable financing, furniture, fixture
and equipment financing, short-term operating loans, and commercial real estate
and construction loans. Consumer loans include home equity lines of credit,
loans for automobiles, home improvement and debt consolidation, personal and
professional lines of credit and other installment and term loans for other
personal needs.

The Bank also provides specialized services designed to
attract and service the needs of commercial customers and account
holders. These services include cash management services,
merchant windows, travelers' checks, safe deposit boxes,
international banking services, night depository facilities and
wire transfer services.

The Bank's Trust Division, which was established in 1993, offers asset
management and custody services for a variety of accounts including revocable
and irrevocable trusts, agency accounts, guardianships of property, charitable
remainder trusts and probates.

The Bank offers VISA and MasterCard credit card services to
its customers. Credit card transactions are cleared through
Bancard Association of Hawaii, Inc. ("BAHI"), a Hawaii
corporation, jointly owned by the Bank and two other Hawaii
banks. BAHI does not operate at a profit or provide the Bank
with a source of income, and the Bank's investment in, and
payment of operating expenses to, BAHI is not a material amount.
The Bank also offers CHECK CARD, a debit card service, to its
customers.

The Bank is a member of the Plus ATM Network. The related
capital investment was not a material amount. The Bank also
offers an Infoline service, providing telephonic account
information, bill payment and funds transfer services.

Market Area and Competition

The Bank competes in the financial services industry mainly
targeting the retail and small to midsized businesses. The

4
market is highly competitive with 6 commercial banks, 6 savings
and loans and numerous credit unions and finance companies
operating in the State of Hawaii. The two largest banks in the
state are pursuing aggressive strategies to increase market share
and to deliver new services. Bancorp Hawaii, Inc. had over
$13.2 billion in total assets at year end 1995. Based on call
report data filed with the FDIC, Bank of Hawaii, the subsidiary
bank, maintains approximately 43% of the deposits held by banks in
the State of Hawaii.

First Hawaiian, Inc. is the second largest bank holding
company with over $7.5 billion in assets at year end 1995. Based
on call report data filed with the FDIC, First Hawaiian Bank, the
subsidiary bank, has approximately a 38% share of the deposit market.

Based on call report data filed with the FDIC, the Bank is
the third largest bank with market share of approximately 10%. At
$1.4 billion in assets, the Bank is building its position in the
marketplace as a community bank which is large enough to provide
a wide range of banking services and small enough to provide
personalized service. The two large banks tend to lead the
market with respect to new products and pricing. The Bank
competes by offering proven products with superior service levels
at competitive prices.

The Bank has a distribution network of 24 branches and has a
strong capital base to enable expansion opportunities in its
quest to better serve its targeted market of retail customers and
small to medium-sized businesses. With recent consolidation in
the financial industry, competition has intensified. The larger
institutions are very focused in the business banking and personal
banking areas, while leveraging their large branch and electronic
banking networks to attract retail customers.

The Bank faces substantial competition for deposits and
loans throughout its market areas. Competition for deposits
comes primarily from other commercial banks, savings
institutions, credit unions, money market funds and other
investment alternatives. The primary factors in competing for
deposits are interest rates, personalized services, the quality
and range of financial services, convenience of office locations
and office hours. Competition for loans comes primarily from
other commercial banks, savings institutions, mortgage banking
firms, credit unions and other financial intermediaries. The
primary factors in competing for loans are interest rates, loan
origination fees, the quality and range of lending services and
personalized services. The Bank faces competition for deposits
and loans throughout its market areas not only from local
institutions but also from out-of-state financial intermediaries
which have opened loan production offices or which solicit
deposits in its market areas. Many of the financial
intermediaries operating in the Bank's market areas offer certain
services, such as investment and international banking services,

5
which the Bank does not offer directly.  Additionally, banks with
larger capitalization and financial intermediaries not subject to
bank regulatory restrictions have larger lending limits and are
thereby able to serve the needs of larger customers. See
"ITEM 1. BUSINESS - Effect of Governmental Policies and Recent
Legislation."

Effect of Governmental Policies and Recent Legislation

Banking is a business that depends on rate differentials.
In general, the difference between the interest rate paid by the
Bank on its deposits and its other borrowings and the interest
rate received by the Bank on loans extended to its customers and
securities held in the Bank's portfolio comprise the major
portion of the Company's earnings. These rates are highly
sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control of the
Bank. Accordingly, the earnings and growth of the Company are
subject to the influence of domestic and foreign economic
conditions, including inflation, recession and unemployment.

The commercial banking business is not only affected by
general economic conditions but also influenced by the monetary
and fiscal policies of the federal government and the policies of
regulatory agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve Board. The
Federal Reserve Board implements national monetary policies (with
objectives such as curbing inflation and combating recession) by
its open-market operations in United States Government
securities, by adjusting the required level of reserves for
financial institutions subject to its reserve requirements and by
varying the discount rates applicable to borrowings by depository
institutions. The actions of the Federal Reserve Board in these
areas influence the growth of bank loans, investments and
deposits and also affect interest rates charged on loans and paid
on deposits. The nature and impact of any future changes in
monetary policies cannot be predicted.

From time to time, legislation is enacted which has the
effect of increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or
expanding permissible activities or affecting the competitive
balance between banks and other financial institutions.
Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the
operations and taxation of banks, bank holding companies and
other financial institutions are frequently made in Congress, in
the Hawaii state legislature and before various bank regulatory and
other professional agencies. The Financial Services Modernization
Act recently proposed in the House of Representatives would
generally permit banks to expand activities further into the
areas of securities and insurance, and would reduce the regulatory
and paperwork burden that currently affects banks. Additionally,
the proposed legislation would force the conversion of savings and

6
loan holding companies into bank holding companies, although unitary
savings and loan holding companies authorized to engage in activities
as of January 1, 1995 would be exempted. Similar legislation has
also been proposed in the Senate. In addition, legislation was
recently introduced in Congress that would merge the deposit insurance
funds applicable to commercial banks and savings associations and
impose a one-time assessment on savings associations to recapitalize
the deposit insurance fund applicable to savings associations.
The likelihood of any major legislative changes and the impact
such changes might have on the Company are impossible to predict.
See "ITEM 1. BUSINESS - Supervision and Regulation."


Supervision and Regulation

Bank holding companies and banks are extensively regulated
under both federal and state law. Set forth below is a summary
description of certain laws which relate to the regulation of the
Company and the Bank. The description does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
applicable laws and regulations.


The Company

The Company, as a registered bank holding company, is
subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956,
as amended (the "BHCA"). The Company is required to file with
the Federal Reserve Board quarterly and annual reports and such
additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require
pursuant to the BHCA. The Federal Reserve Board may conduct
examinations of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Federal Reserve Board may require that the Company
terminate an activity or terminate control of or liquidate or
divest certain subsidiaries or affiliates when the Federal
Reserve Board believes the activity or the control of the
subsidiary or affiliate constitutes a significant risk to the
financial safety, soundness or stability of any of its banking
subsidiaries. The Federal Reserve Board also has the authority
to regulate provisions of certain bank holding company debt,
including authority to impose interest ceilings and reserve
requirements on such debt. Under certain circumstances, the
Company must file written notice and obtain approval from the
Federal Reserve Board prior to purchasing or redeeming its equity
securities.

Under the BHCA and regulations adopted by the Federal
Reserve Board, a bank holding company and its nonbanking
subsidiaries are prohibited from requiring certain tie-in
arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or
sale of property or furnishing of services. Further, the Company
is required by the Federal Reserve Board to maintain certain

7
levels of capital.  See "ITEM 1. BUSINESS - Supervision and
Regulation - Capital Standards."

The Company is required to obtain the prior approval of the
Federal Reserve Board for the acquisition of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of any class of voting securities or
substantially all of the assets of any bank or bank holding
company. Prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board is also
required for the merger or consolidation of the Company and
another bank holding company.

The Company is prohibited by the BHCA, except in certain
statutorily prescribed instances, from acquiring direct or
indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding
voting shares of any company that is not a bank or bank holding
company and from engaging directly or indirectly in activities
other than those of banking, managing or controlling banks or
furnishing services to its subsidiaries. However, the Company,
subject to the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board, may
engage in any, or acquire shares of companies engaged in,
activities that are deemed by the Federal Reserve Board to be so
closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to
be a proper incident thereto. In making any such determination,
the Federal Reserve Board is required to consider whether the
performance of such activities by the Company or an affiliate can
reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public, such as
greater convenience, increased competition or gains in
efficiency, that outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue
concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition,
conflicts of interest or unsound banking practices. The Federal
Reserve Board is also empowered to differentiate between
activities commenced de novo and activities commenced by
acquisition, in whole or in part, of a going concern.

Under Federal Reserve Board regulations, a bank holding
company is required to serve as a source of financial and
managerial strength to its subsidiary banks and may not conduct
its operations in an unsafe or unsound manner. In addition, it
is the Federal Reserve Board's policy that in serving as a source
of strength to its subsidiary banks, a bank holding company
should stand ready to use available resources to provide adequate
capital funds to its subsidiary banks during periods of financial
stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility
and capital-raising capacity to obtain additional resources for
assisting its subsidiary banks. A bank holding company's failure
to meet its obligations to serve as a source of strength to its
subsidiary banks will generally be considered by the Federal
Reserve Board to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or a
violation of the Federal Reserve Board's regulations or both.
This doctrine has become known as the "source of strength"
doctrine. Although the United States Court of Appeals for the
Fifth Circuit found the Federal Reserve Board's source of
strength doctrine invalid in 1990, stating that the Federal

8
Reserve Board had no authority to assert the doctrine under the
BHCA, the decision, which is not binding on federal courts
outside the Fifth Circuit, was recently reversed by the United
States Supreme Court on procedural grounds. The validity of the
source of strength doctrine is likely to continue to be the
subject of litigation until definitively resolved by the courts
or by Congress.

The Bank

The Bank, as a Hawaii state-chartered bank, is subject to
primary supervision, periodic examination and regulation by the
Hawaii Commissioner of Financial Institutions ("Commissioner")
and the FDIC. If, as a result of an examination of a bank, the
FDIC should determine that the financial condition, capital
resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management,
liquidity or other aspects of the bank's operations are
unsatisfactory or that the bank or its management is violating or
has violated any law or regulation, various remedies are
available to the FDIC. Such remedies include the power to enjoin
"unsafe or unsound" practices, to require affirmative action to
correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice,
to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced,
to direct an increase in capital, to restrict the growth of the
bank, to assess civil monetary penalties, to remove officers and
directors and ultimately to terminate a bank's deposit insurance,
which for a Hawaii state-chartered bank would result in a
revocation of the bank's charter. The Commissioner has many of
the same remedial powers. The Bank has never been the subject of
any such actions by the FDIC or the Commissioner.

The deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC in the
manner and to the extent provided by law. For this protection,
the Bank pays a semiannual statutory assessment. See "ITEM 1.
BUSINESS - Supervision and Regulation - Premiums for Deposit
Insurance." Although the Bank is not a member of the Federal
Reserve System, it is nevertheless subject to certain regulations
of the Federal Reserve Board.

Various requirements and restrictions under the laws of the
State of Hawaii and the United States affect the operations of
the Bank. State and federal statutes and regulations relate to
many aspects of the Bank's operations, including reserves against
deposits, interest rates payable on deposits, loans, investments,
mergers and acquisitions, borrowings, dividends, locations of
branch offices and capital requirements. Further, the Bank is
required to maintain certain levels of capital. See "ITEM 1.
BUSINESS - Supervision and Regulation - Capital Standards."


9
Restrictions on Transfers of Funds to the Company by the
Bank

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from the
Bank and its subsidiary.

There are statutory and regulatory limitations on the amount
of dividends which may be paid to the Company by the Bank.
Hawaii law provides that a state-chartered bank may not declare
or pay any dividend in an amount greater than its undivided
profits then on hand, deducting therefrom all losses; all debts,
unless the same are well secured, in which interest for a period
of one year is unpaid and debts upon which final judgment has
been recovered but has been for more than one year unsatisfied
and on which interest for a period of one year is unpaid, unless
the same are well secured; all assets which a banking examiner
may have required to be charged off; and all expenses, interest,
taxes, and depreciation.

The FDIC also has authority to prohibit the Bank from
engaging in activities that, in the FDIC's opinion, constitute
unsafe or unsound practices in conducting its business. It is
possible, depending upon the financial condition of the bank in
question and other factors, that the FDIC could assert that the
payment of dividends or other payments might, under some
circumstances, be such an unsafe or unsound practice. Further,
the FDIC and the Federal Reserve Board have established
guidelines with respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels
of capital by banks or bank holding companies under their
jurisdiction. Compliance with the standards set forth in such
guidelines and the restrictions that are or may be imposed under
the prompt corrective action provisions of federal law could
limit the amount of dividends which the Bank or the Company may
pay. See "ITEM 1. BUSINESS - Supervision and Regulation - Prompt
Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms" and "-

10
Capital Standards" for a discussion of these additional
restrictions on capital distributions.

At present, substantially all of the Company's revenues,
including funds available for the payment of dividends and other
operating expenses, are, and will continue to be, primarily
dividends paid by the Bank. At December 31, 1995, the Bank had
$82.7 million in retained earnings available for the payment of
cash dividends.

The Bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by
federal law on any extensions of credit to, or the issuance of a
guarantee or letter of credit on behalf of, the Company or other
affiliates, the purchase of or investments in stock or other
securities thereof, the taking of such securities as collateral
for loans and the purchase of assets of the Company or other
affiliates. Such restrictions prevent the Company and such other
affiliates from borrowing from the Bank unless the loans are
secured by marketable obligations of designated amounts.
Further, such secured loans and investments by the Bank to or in
the Company or to or in any other affiliate is limited to 10% of
the Bank's capital and surplus (as defined by federal
regulations) and such secured loans and investments are limited,
in the aggregate, to 20% of the Bank's capital and surplus (as
defined by federal regulations). Additional restrictions on
transactions with affiliates may be imposed on the Bank under the
prompt corrective action provisions of federal law. See "ITEM 1.
BUSINESS - Supervision and Regulation - Prompt Corrective Action
and Other Enforcement Mechanisms."


Capital Standards

The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have adopted
risk-based minimum capital guidelines intended to provide a
measure of capital that reflects the degree of risk associated
with a banking organization's operations for both transactions
reported on the balance sheet as assets and transactions, such as
letters of credit and recourse arrangements, which are recorded
as off-balance sheet items. Under these guidelines, nominal
dollar amounts of assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet
items are multiplied by one of several risk adjustment percentages, which range
from 0% for assets with low credit risk, such as certain U.S. Treasury
securities, to 100% for assets with relatively high credit risk, such as
business loans.

A banking organization's risk-based capital ratios are
obtained by dividing its qualifying capital by its total risk-adjusted assets.

The regulators measure risk-adjusted assets,
which includes off-balance sheet items, against both total
qualifying capital (the sum of Tier 1 capital and limited amounts

11
of Tier 2 capital) and Tier 1 capital.  Tier 1 capital consists
primarily of common stock, retained earnings, noncumulative
perpetual preferred stock (cumulative perpetual preferred stock
for bank holding companies) and minority interests in certain
subsidiaries, less most intangible assets. Tier 2 capital may
consist of a limited amount of the allowance for possible loan
and lease losses, cumulative preferred stock, long term preferred
stock, eligible term subordinated debt and certain other
instruments with some characteristics of equity. The inclusion
of elements of Tier 2 capital is subject to certain other
requirements and limitations of the federal banking agencies.
The federal banking agencies require a minimum ratio of
qualifying total capital to risk-adjusted assets of 8% and a
minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-adjusted assets of 4%.

In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal banking
regulators require banking organizations to maintain a minimum
amount of Tier 1 capital to total assets, referred to as the
leverage ratio. For a banking organization rated in the highest
of the five categories used by regulators to rate banking
organizations, the minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to
total assets is 3%. For all banking organizations not rated in
the highest category, the minimum leverage ratio must be at least
100 to 200 basis points above the 3% minimum, or 4% to 5%. In
addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and
leverage ratios that apply across the industry, the regulators
have the discretion to set individual minimum capital
requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly
above the minimum guidelines and ratios.

In August 1995, the federal banking agencies adopted final
regulations specifying that the agencies will include in their
evaluations of a bank's capital adequacy an assessment of the
exposure to declines in the economic value of the bank's capital
due to changes in interest rates. The final regulations, however,
do not include a measurement framework for assessing the level of
a bank's exposure to interest rate risk, which is the subject of a
proposed policy statement issued by the federal banking agencies
concurrently with the final regulations. The proposal would measure
interest rate risk in relation to the effect of a 200 basis point
change in market interest rates on the economic value of a bank.
Banks with high levels of measured exposure or weak management
systems generally will be required to hold additional capital for
interest rate risk. The specific amount of capital that may be
needed would be determined on a case-by-case basis by the examiner
and the appropriate federal banking agency. Because this proposal
has only recently been issued, the Bank currently is unable to
predict the impact of the proposal on the Bank if the policy
statement is adopted as proposed.

In January 1995, the federal banking agencies
issued a final rule relating to capital standards and the risks
arising from the concentration of credit and nontraditional

12
activities.  Institutions which have significant amounts of their
assets concentrated in high risk loans or nontraditional banking
activities and who fail to adequately manage these risks, will be
required to set aside capital in excess of the regulatory
minimums. The federal banking agencies have not imposed any
quantitative assessment for determining when these risks are
significant, but have identified these issues as important
factors they will review in assessing an individual bank's
capital adequacy.

In December 1993, the federal banking agencies issued an
interagency policy statement on the allowance for loan and lease
losses which, among other things, establishes certain benchmark
ratios of loan loss reserves to classified assets. The benchmark
set forth by such policy statement is the sum of (a) assets
classified loss; (b) 50 percent of assets classified doubtful;
(c) 15 percent of assets classified substandard; and (d)
estimated credit losses on other assets over the upcoming 12
months.



13
Federally supervised banks and savings associations are
currently required to report deferred tax assets in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." See "ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- - Supervision and Regulation - Accounting Changes." The federal
banking agencies recently issued final rules effective April 1,
1995, which limit the amount of deferred tax assets that are
allowable in computing an institution's regulatory capital.
The standard has been in effect on an interim basis since March
1993. Deferred tax assets that can be realized for taxes paid
in prior carryback years and from future reversals of existing
taxable temporary differences are generally not limited. Deferred
tax assets that can only be realized through future taxable
earnings are limited for regulatory capital purposes to the lesser
of (i) the amount that can be realized within one year of the
quarter-end report date, or (ii) 10% of Tier 1 Capital. The
amount of any deferred tax in excess of this limit would be
excluded from Tier 1 Capital and total assets and regulatory
capital calculations. See Notes 1 and 18 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1995 Annual Report to
Shareholders which is incorporated herein by reference. See
"ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA."

Future changes in regulations or practices could further
reduce the amount of capital recognized for purposes of capital
adequacy. Such a change could affect the ability of the Bank to
grow and could restrict the amount of profits, if any, available
for the payment of dividends.

The following table presents the amounts of regulatory
capital and the capital ratios for the Company and the Bank, compared to its
minimum regulatory capital requirements as of December 31, 1995.

Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms

Federal law requires each federal banking agency to take
prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of insured
depository institutions, including but not limited to those that
fall below one or more prescribed minimum capital ratios. The
law required each federal banking agency to promulgate
regulations defining the following five categories in which an
insured depository institution will be placed, based on the level
of its capital ratios: well capitalized, adequately capitalized,
undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically
undercapitalized.

In September 1992, the federal banking agencies issued
uniform final regulations implementing the prompt corrective
action provisions of federal law. An insured depository
institution generally will be classified in the following
categories based on capital measures indicated below:

"Well capitalized" "Adequately capitalized"
Total risk-based capital of 10%; Total risk-based capital
Tier 1 risk-based capital of 6%; and of 8%;
Leverage ratio of 5%. Tier 1 risk-based capital
of 4%; and Leverage ratio
of 4%.

"Undercapitalized" "Significantly
Total risk-based capital less than undercapitalized"
8%; Tier 1 risk-based capital less Total risk-based capital
than 4%; or Leverage ratio less than less than 6%; or Tier 1
4%. (3% if the institution receives risk-based capital less
the highest rating from its primary than 3%; or Leverage
regulator) ratio less than 3%.

"Critically undercapitalized"
Tangible equity to total assets less
than 2%.

15
An institution that, based upon its capital levels, is
classified as "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized" or
"undercapitalized" may be treated as though it were in the next
lower capital category if the appropriate federal banking agency,
after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an
unsafe or unsound condition or an unsafe or unsound practice
warrants such treatment. At each successive lower capital
category, an insured depository institution is subject to more
restrictions. The federal banking agencies, however, may not
treat an institution as "critically undercapitalized" unless its
capital ratio actually warrants such treatment.

The law prohibits insured depository institutions from
paying management fees to any controlling persons or, with
certain limited exceptions, making capital distributions if after
such transaction the institution would be undercapitalized. If
an insured depository institution is undercapitalized, it will be
closely monitored by the appropriate federal banking agency,
subject to asset growth restrictions and required to obtain prior
regulatory approval for acquisitions, branching and engaging in
new lines of business. Any undercapitalized depository
institution must submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to
the appropriate federal banking agency 45 days after becoming
undercapitalized. The appropriate federal banking agency cannot
accept a capital plan unless, among other things, it determines
that the plan (i) specifies the steps the institution will take
to become adequately capitalized, (ii) is based on realistic
assumptions and (iii) is likely to succeed in restoring the
depository institution's capital. In addition, each company
controlling an undercapitalized depository institution must
guarantee that the institution will comply with the capital plan
until the depository institution has been adequately capitalized
on an average basis during each of four consecutive calendar
quarters and must otherwise provide adequate assurances of
performance. The aggregate liability of such guarantee is
limited to the lesser of (a) an amount equal to 5% of the
depository institution's total assets at the time the institution
became undercapitalized or (b) the amount which is necessary to
bring the institution into compliance with all capital standards
applicable to such institution as of the time the institution
fails to comply with its capital restoration plan. Finally, the
appropriate federal banking agency may impose any of the
additional restrictions or sanctions that it may impose on
significantly undercapitalized institutions if it determines that
such action will further the purpose of the prompt corrective
action provisions.

An insured depository institution that is significantly
undercapitalized, or is undercapitalized and fails to submit, or
in a material respect to implement, an acceptable capital
restoration plan, is subject to additional restrictions and

16
sanctions.  These include, among other things: (i) a forced sale
of voting shares to raise capital or, if grounds exist for
appointment of a receiver or conservator, a forced merger; (ii)
restrictions on transactions with affiliates; (iii) further
limitations on interest rates paid on deposits; (iv) further
restrictions on growth or required shrinkage; (v) modification or
termination of specified activities; (vi) replacement of
directors or senior executive officers; (vii) prohibitions on the
receipt of deposits from correspondent institutions; (viii)
restrictions on capital distributions by the holding companies of
such institutions; (ix) required divestiture of subsidiaries by
the institution; or (x) other restrictions as determined by the
appropriate federal banking agency. Although the appropriate
federal banking agency has discretion to determine which of the
foregoing restrictions or sanctions it will seek to impose, it is
required to force a sale of voting shares or merger, impose
restrictions on affiliate transactions and impose restrictions on
rates paid on deposits unless it determines that such actions
would not further the purpose of the prompt corrective action
provisions. In addition, without the prior written approval of
the appropriate federal banking agency, a significantly
undercapitalized institution may not pay any bonus to its senior
executive officers or provide compensation to any of them at a
rate that exceeds such officer's average rate of base
compensation during the 12 calendar months preceding the month in
which the institution became undercapitalized.

Further restrictions and sanctions are required to be
imposed on insured depository institutions that are critically
undercapitalized. For example, a critically undercapitalized
institution generally would be prohibited from engaging in any
material transaction other than in the ordinary course of
business without prior regulatory approval and could not, with
certain exceptions, make any payment of principal or interest on
its subordinated debt beginning 60 days after becoming critically
undercapitalized. Most importantly, however, except under
limited circumstances, the appropriate federal banking agency,
not later than 90 days after an insured depository institution
becomes critically undercapitalized, is required to appoint a
conservator or receiver for the institution. The board of
directors of an insured depository institution would not be
liable to the institution's shareholders or creditors for
consenting in good faith to the appointment of a receiver or
conservator or to an acquisition or merger as required by the
regulator.

In addition to measures taken under the prompt corrective
action provisions, commercial banking organizations may be
subject to potential enforcement actions by the federal
regulators for unsafe or unsound practices in conducting their
businesses or for violations of any law, rule, regulation or any
condition imposed in writing by the agency or any written
agreement with the agency. Enforcement actions may include the

17
imposition of a conservator or receiver, the issuance of a cease
and desist order that can be judicially enforced, the termination
of insurance of deposits (in the case of a depository
institution), the imposition of civil money penalties, the
issuance of directives to increase capital, the issuance of
formal and informal agreements, the issuance of removal and
prohibition orders against institution-affiliated parties and the
enforcement of such actions through injunctions or restraining
orders based upon a judicial determination that the agency would
be harmed if such equitable relief was not granted.


Safety and Soundness Standards

In July 1995, the federal banking agencies adopted final
guidelines establishing standards for safety and soundness, as
required by FDICIA. The guidelines set forth operational and
managerial standards relating to internal controls, information
systems and internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit
underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and compensation,
fees and benefits. Guidelines for asset quality and earnings
standards will be adopted in the future. The guidelines establish
the safety and soundness standards that the agencies will use to
identify and address problems at insured depository institutions
before capital becomes impaired. If an institution fails to comply
with a safety and soundness standard, the appropriate federal
banking agency may require the institution to submit a compliance
plan. Failure to submit a compliance plan or to implement an
accepted plan may result in enforcement action.

In December 1992, the federal banking agencies issued final
regulations prescribing uniform guidelines for real estate
lending. The regulations, which became effective on March 19,
1993, require insured depository institutions to adopt written
policies establishing standards, consistent with such guidelines,
for extensions of credit secured by real estate. The policies
must address loan portfolio management, underwriting standards
and loan to value limits that do not exceed the supervisory
limits prescribed by the regulations.

Appraisals for "real estate related financial transactions"
must be conducted by either state certified or state licensed
appraisers for transactions in excess of certain amounts. State
certified appraisers are required for all transactions with a
transaction value of $1,000,000 or more; for all nonresidential
transactions valued at $250,000 or more; and for "complex" 1-4
family residential properties of $250,000 or more. A state
licensed appraiser is required for all other appraisals.
However, appraisals performed in connection with "federally
related transactions" must now comply with the agencies'
appraisal standards. Federally related transactions include the
sale, lease, purchase, investment in, or exchange of, real
property or interests in real property, the financing or

18
refinancing of real property, and the use of real property or
interests in real property as security for a loan or investment,
including mortgage-backed securities.



19
Premiums for Deposit Insurance

Federal law has established several mechanisms to increase
funds to protect deposits insured by the Bank Insurance Fund
("BIF") administered by the FDIC. The FDIC is authorized to
borrow up to $30 billion from the United States Treasury; up to
90% of the fair market value of assets of institutions acquired
by the FDIC as receiver from the Federal Financing Bank; and from
depository institutions that are members of the BIF. Any
borrowings not repaid by asset sales are to be repaid through
insurance premiums assessed to member institutions. Such
premiums must be sufficient to repay any borrowed funds within 15
years and provide insurance fund reserves of $1.25 for each $100
of insured deposits. The result of these provisions is that the
assessment rate on deposits of BIF members could increase in the
future. The FDIC also has authority to impose special
assessments against insured deposits.

The FDIC implemented a final risk-based assessment system,
as required by FDICIA, effective January 1, 1994, under which an
institution's premium assessment is based on the probability that
the deposit insurance fund will incur a loss with respect to the
institution, the likely amount of any such loss, and the revenue
needs of the deposit insurance fund. As long as BIF's reserve
ratio is less than a specified "designated reserve ratio," 1.25%,
the total amount raised from BIF members by the risk-based
assessment system may not be less than the amount that would be
raised if the assessment rate for all BIF members were .023% of
deposits. On August 8, 1995, the FDIC announced that the
designated reserve ratio had been achieved and, accordingly,
issued final regulations adopting an assessment rate schedule
for BIF members of 4 to 31 basis points effective on June 1,
1995. On November 14, 1995, the FDIC further reduced deposit
insurance premiums to a range of 0 to 27 basis points effective
for the semi-annual period beginning January 1, 1996.

Under the risk-based assessment system, a BIF member
institution such as the Bank is categorized into one of three
capital categories (well capitalized, adequately capitalized,
and undercapitalized) and one of three categories based on
supervisory evaluations by its primary federal regulator
(in the Bank's case, the FDIC). The three supervisory
categories are: financially sound with only a few minor
weaknesses (Group A), demonstrates weaknesses that could result
in significant deterioration (Group B), and poses a substantial
probability of loss (Group C). The capital ratios used by the
FDIC to define well-capitalized, adequately capitalized and
undercapitalized are the same in the FDIC's prompt corrective
action regulations. The BIF assessment rates are summarized
below; assessment figures are expressed in terms of cents per
$100 in deposits.

A number of proposals have recently been introduced in
Congress to address the disparity in bank and thrift deposit
insurance premiums. On September 19, 1995, legislation was
introduced and referred to the House Banking Committee that
would, among other things: (i) impose a requirement on all
SAIF member institutions to fully recapitalize the SAIF by
paying a one-time special assessment of approximately 85 basis
points on all assessable deposits as of March 31, 1995, which
assessment would be due as of January 1, 1996; (ii) spread the
responsibility for FICO interest payments across all FDIC-insured
institutions on a pro-rata basis, subject to certain exceptions;
(iii) require that deposit insurance premium assessment rates
applicable to SAIF member institutions be no less than deposit
insurance premium assessment rates applicable to BIF member
institutions; (iv) provide for a merger of the BIF and the SAIF
as of January 1, 1998; (v) require savings associations to convert
to state or national bank charters by January 1, 1998; (vi)

21
require savings associations to divest any activities not
permissible for commercial banks within five years; (vii) eliminate
the bad-debt reserve deduction for savings associations, although
savings associations would not be required to recapture into income
their accumulated bad-debt reserves; (viii) provide for the
conversion of savings and loan holding companies into bank holding
companies as of January 1, 1998, although unitary savings and loan
holding companies authorized to engage in activities as of
September 13, 1995 would have such authority grandfathered
(subject to certain limitations); and (ix) abolish the OTS and
transfer the OTS' regulatory authority to the other federal
banking agencies. The legislation would also provide that any
savings association that would become undercapitalized under
the prompt corrective action regulations as a result of the
special deposit premium assessment could be exempted from
payment of the assessment, provided that the institution would
continue to be subject to the payment of semiannual assessments
under the current rate schedule following the recapitalization of
the SAIF. The legislation was considered and passed by the House
Banking Committee's Subcommittee on Financial Institutions on
September 27, 1995, and has not yet been acted on by the full
House Banking Committee.

On September 20, 1995, similar legislation was introduced
in the Senate, although the Senate bill does not include a
comprehensive approach for merging the savings association
and commercial bank charters. The Senate bill remains pending
before the Senate Banking Committee.

The future of both these bills is linked with that of
pending budget reconciliation legislation since some of the
major features of the bills are included in the Seven-Year
Balanced Budget Reconciliation Act. The budget bill, which
was passed by both the House and Senate on November 17, 1995
and vetoed by the President on December 6, 1995, would: (i)
recapitalize the SAIF through a special assessment of between
70 and 80 basis points on deposits held by institutions as of
March 31, 1995; (ii) provide an exemption to this rule for weak
institutions, and a 20% reduction in the SAIF-assessable
deposits of so-called "Oakar banks;" (iii) expand the assessment
base for FICO payments to include all FDIC-insured institutions;
(iv) merge the BIF and SAIF on January 1, 1998, only if no
insured depository institution is a savings association on that
date; (v) establish a special reserve for the SAIF on January 1,
1998; and (vi) prohibit the FDIC from setting semiannual
assessments in excess of the amount needed to maintain the reserve
ratio of any fund at the designated reserve ratio. The bill does
not include a provision to merge the charters of savings
associations and commercial banks.

In light of ongoing debate over the content and fate of the
budget bill, the different proposals currently under consideration
and the uncertainty of the Congressional budget and legislative

22
processes in general, management cannot predict whether any or all
of the proposed legislation will be passed, or in what form. Accordingly, the
effect of any such legislation on the Bank cannot be determined.



23
Interstate Banking and Branching

In September 1994, the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and
Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Act") became law.
Under the Interstate Act, beginning one year after the date of
enactment, a bank holding company that is adequately capitalized
and managed may obtain approval under the BHCA to acquire an
existing bank located in another state without regard to state
law. A bank holding company would not be permitted to make such
an acquisition if, upon consummation, it would control (a) more
than 10% of the total amount of deposits of insured depository
institutions in the United States or (b) 30% or more of the deposits
in the state in which the bank is located. A state may limit the
percentage of total deposits that may be held in that state by any
one bank or bank holding company if application of such limitation
does not discriminate against out-of-state banks. An out-of-state
bank holding company may not acquire a state bank in existence for
less than a minimum length of time that may be prescribed by state
law except that a state may not impose more than a five year
existence requirement.

The Interstate Act also permits, beginning June 1, 1997,
mergers of insured banks located in different states and
conversion of the branches of the acquired bank into branches of
the resulting bank. Each state may permit such combinations
earlier than June 1, 1997, and may adopt legislation to prohibit
interstate mergers after that date in that state or in other
states by that state's banks. The same concentration limits
discussed in the preceding paragraph apply. The Interstate Act
also permits a national or state bank to establish branches in a
state other than its home state if permitted by the laws of that
state, subject to the same requirements and conditions as for a
merger transaction.

In April 1995, the Hawaii legislature enacted legislation to make
necessary changes to Hawaii law to harmonize it with the
interstate banking legislation passed by Congress. Currently, Hawaii law
permits limited reciprocal banking between Hawaii and Guam, American Samoa,
the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of Palau, the Commonwealth of
the Northern Marianas and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. In January
1996, legislation was introduced to permit interstate branching under the
Interstate Act. The Company cannot predict whether such legislation will be
enacted by the Hawaii legislature. The Interstate Act is likely to increase
competition in the Company's market areas especially from larger financial
institutions and their holding companies. It is difficult to assess the
impact such likely increased competition will have on the Company's
operations.




24
Community Reinvestment Act and Fair Lending Developments

The Bank is subject to certain fair lending requirements and
reporting obligations involving home mortgage lending operations
and Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") activities. The CRA
generally requires the federal banking agencies to evaluate the
record of a financial institution in meeting the credit needs of
their local communities, including low and moderate income
neighborhoods. In addition to substantial penalties and
corrective measures that may be required for a violation of
certain fair lending laws, the federal banking agencies may take
compliance with such laws and CRA into account when regulating
and supervising other activities. The FDIC has rated the Bank
"Satisfactory" in complying with its CRA obligations.

In May 1995, the federal banking agencies issued final
regulations which change the manner in which they measure a bank's
compliance with its CRA obligations. The final regulations adopt
a performance-based evaluation system which bases CRA ratings on
an institution's actual lending service and investment performance
rather than the extent to which the institution conducts needs
assessments, documents community outreach or complies with other
procedural requirements.

In March 1994, the Federal Interagency Task Force on Fair
Lending issued a policy statement on discrimination in lending.
The policy statement describes the three methods that federal
agencies will use to prove discrimination: overt evidence of
discrimination, evidence of disparate treatment and evidence of
disparate impact.


Accounting Changes

In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") issued SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which superseded SFAS No. 96 of the same title. SFAS No. 109,
which became effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 31, 1992, employs an asset and liability approach in
accounting for income taxes payable or refundable at the date of
the financial statements as a result of all events that have been
recognized in the financial statements and as measured by the
provisions of enacted tax laws. Adoption by the Company of SFAS
No. 109 did not have a material impact on the Company's results
of operations.

In December 1991, the FASB issued SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," which is effective
for fiscal years ending after December 15, 1992 (December 15,
1995 in the case of entities with less than $150 million in total
assets). SFAS No. 107 requires financial intermediaries to
disclose, either in the body of their financial statements or in
the accompanying notes, the "fair value" of financial instruments

25
for which it is "practicable to estimate that value."  SFAS
No. 107 defines "fair value" as the amount at which a financial
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between
willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
Quoted market prices, if available, are deemed the best evidence
of the fair value of such instruments. Most deposit and loan
instruments issued by financial intermediaries are subject to
SFAS No. 107, and its effect will be to require financial
statement disclosure of the fair value of most of the assets and
liabilities of financial intermediaries such as the Company and
the Bank. The disclosure required by SFAS No. 107 at
December 31, 1995 and 1994 is presented in Note 23 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements. See "ITEM 8. FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA." Management is unable to
predict what effect, if any, such disclosure requirements could
have on the market price of the common stock of the Company or
its ability to raise funds in the financial markets.

In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," which was subsequently
amended by SFAS No. 118 in October 1994. SFAS No. 114 prescribes
the recognition criterion for loan impairment and the measurement
methods for certain impaired loans and loans whose terms are
modified in troubled debt restructurings. SFAS No. 114 states
that a loan is impaired when it is probable that a creditor will
be unable to collect all principal and interest amounts due
according to the contracted terms of the loan agreement. A
creditor is required to measure impairment by discounting
expected future cash flows at the loan's effective interest rate,
or by reference to an observable market price, or by the fair
value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent or if
foreclosure is probable. SFAS No. 114 also clarifies the
existing accounting for in-substance foreclosures by stating that
a collateral-dependent real estate loan would be reported as real
estate owned only if the lender had taken possession of
collateral.

SFAS No. 118 amended SFAS No. 114 to allow a creditor to use
existing methods for recognizing interest income on an impaired
loan. To accomplish that, it eliminated the provisions in
SFAS No. 114 that described how a creditor should report income
on an impaired loan. SFAS No. 118 did not change the provisions
in SFAS No. 114 that require a creditor to measure impairment
based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or as a
practical expedient, at the observable market price of the loan
or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral
dependent. SFAS No. 118 amends the disclosure requirements in
SFAS No. 114 to require information about the recorded
investments in certain impaired loans and about how a creditor
recognizes interest income related to those impaired loans. SFAS
No. 114 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1994. Although earlier

26
application is encouraged, it is not required.  SFAS No. 118 is
effective concurrent with the effective date of SFAS No. 114.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 114 and 118 as of January 1, 1995.
The effects of the new accounting pronouncements were not
material.

In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 115 "Accounting For
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" addressing the
accounting and reporting for investments in equity securities
that have readily determinable fair values and for all
investments in debt securities. These investments would be
classified in three categories and accounted for as follows: (i)
debt and equity securities that the entity has the positive
intent and ability to hold to maturity would be classified as
"held to maturity" and reported at amortized cost; (ii) debt and
equity securities that are held for current resale would be
classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses included in operations; and (iii)
debt and equity securities not classified as either securities
held to maturity or trading securities would be classified as
securities available for sale, and reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses excluded from operations and reported
as a separate component of shareholders' equity. The statement
is effective for financial statements for calendar year 1994, but
may be applied to an earlier fiscal year for which annual
financial statements have not been issued. The Company adopted
SFAS No. 115 as of January 1, 1994. The effects of adoption of
SFAS No. 115 are set forth in Note 1 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements. See "ITEM 8. FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA."

In October 1994, the FASB issued SFAS No. 119, "Disclosures
about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of
Financial Instruments." SFAS No. 119 amends SFAS No. 105,
"Disclosures of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet
Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations
of Credit Risk," and SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value
of Financial Instruments." SFAS No. 119 requires the disclosure
of comparable information for options and other similar financial
instruments that previously were not within the scope of SFAS
No. 105. SFAS No. 119 defines a "derivative" financial
instrument as a future, forward, swap, option contract or other
financial instrument with similar characteristics. The Bank does
not use futures, forwards, swaps or option contracts either for
trading or for any other purposes, with the exception of a
limited amount of foreign exchange forward contracts used to
satisfy customer and operational needs. Foreign exchange forward
contracts outstanding at December 31, 1995 and 1994 were not
material.

In March 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."
SFAS No. 121, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995,
establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets,
certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be
held and used and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to
be disposed of.  The application of SFAS No. 121, effective from January 1,
1996, is not expected to have a material impact to the consolidated financial
statements of the Company.

In May 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage
Servicing Rights, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." SFAS No. 122,
effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1995, requires mortgage banking enterprises and other entities (i.e., commercial
banks and thrift institutions that conduct operations that are substantially
similar to the primary operations of a mortgage banking enterprise) to recognize
as separate assets the rights to service mortgage loans for others. SFAS No.
122 also requires the assessment of capitalized mortgage servicing rights for
impairment to be based on the current fair value of those rights. The
application of SFAS No. 122, effective from January 1, 1996, is not expected to
have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123, effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1995, establishes a fair value based method of accounting for
stock-based compensation, but does not require an entity to adopt the new method
for purposes of preparing its basic financial statements. For entities not
adopting the new method, SFAS No. 123 requires that they disclose in their
footnotes pro forma net income and earnings per share information as if the fair
value based method had been adopted. The Company plans to comply with the
disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 in its consolidated financial statements
for 1996.

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto for the previous two years have been reclassified to conform with the
current year's presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the
Company's results of operations.





27
Employees

At January 31, 1996, the Company employed 596 persons, 587
on a full-time basis and 9 on a part-time basis. Management of
the Company believes that it has favorable employee relations.
The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement.



28
Selected Statistical Information

The following tables and data set forth, for the respective
periods shown, selected statistical information relating to the
Company and the Bank. These tables should be read in conjunction
with the information contained in "ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL
DATA," "ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS," and "ITEM 8.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA."

Loan Portfolio

Total loans declined slightly to $990.4 million at the end of 1995,
compared with $992.0 million at the end of 1994 and $945.8 million
at the end of 1993. Increases in loan volumes were recorded in the real
estate-mortgage-residential and -commercial loan categories.

The Bank emphasizes residential and commercial mortgage
loans, business loans to middle-market companies and
professionals and consumer installment loans. Its marketing
strategy for generating new loans includes a business calling
program which requires officers at all levels to make client
development visits to local businesses each month. In addition,
the Bank uses television, radio, print and direct mail marketing.

A significant portion of the Bank's loan portfolio is
secured by real estate. Management believes that the Bank's
underwriting guidelines, including collateral requirements,
provide the Bank with protection against losses on delinquent
loans. However, due to the slowdown in the Hawaiian economy,
delinquencies and charge-offs during 1994 increased over the
previous year. Continued recessionary conditions in Hawaii may
further negatively impact the Bank's real estate collateral and
adversely impact the level of nonperforming loans and provision
for loan losses in the future. See "ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS -- Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses," "--
Nonperforming Assets" and "-- Financial Condition."

At December 31, 1995, the Bank did not have any
concentration of loans in any industry classified under the
Standard Industrial Code which exceeded 10% of the Bank's total
loans.

The following table sets forth information regarding
outstanding loans by categories as of the dates indicated.

Commercial, Financial and Agricultural.  Loans in this category
include loans primarily to small and middle market businesses and
professionals located in Hawaii. The Bank's agricultural loans at December 31,
1995 totaled $8,300.

Real Estate - Construction. Real estate - construction loans
decreased to $47.9 million at the end of 1995, from $52.8 million at the
end of 1994 and $41.6 million at the end of 1993. The majority of the
construction loans provided by the Bank in this category were used for
residential development projects.

Real Estate - Mortgage. The Bank emphasizes making residential
mortgage loans for owner-occupied primary residences and does not actively
seek to make loans for vacation condominiums or homes. The Bank has also
limited growth of residential mortgages for the higher-priced homes because
of higher volatility in their values. In order to limit such growth and
provide for adequate collateral, the Bank requires higher than normal
equity to loan ratios for loans secured by such homes.

The major components of the Bank's portfolio of commercial, industrial
and other mortgage loans at December 31, 1995 included $108.6 million for
stores and offices, $51.5 million for warehouses and industrial buildings,
$36.7 million for apartment buildings with 5 or more units and $5.8 million
for hotels. Mortgage loans held for sale at December 31, 1995
totalled $7.9 million.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered
adequate to provide for potential losses on loans and other extensions of
credit, including off-balance sheet credit exposures. The adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses is based upon management's evaluation of the
quality, character and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, current and
projected economic conditions, and past loan loss experience.

During 1995, $3.3 million was provided for loan losses compared to
$3.3 million in 1994 and $3.2 million in 1993. In 1995, the Bank
experienced a net charge-off of $1.4 million, compared with net charge-offs
of $2.1 million and $1.4 million in 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
allowance for loan losses at December 31, 1995 was $20.2 million, compared
to $18.3 million at December 31, 1994 and $17.1 million at December 31,
1993. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans was 2.04%, 1.84%
and 1.81% at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at December 31,
1995 was adequate to absorb known and inherent risks in the portfolio.
However, no assurance can be given that economic conditions which may
adversely affect the Bank's service areas or other circumstances, such as
material and sustained declines in real estate values, will not result in
increased losses in the Bank's loan portfolio. See "ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- -- Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses" and "-- Nonperforming Assets."

Over the five-year period ended December 31, 1995, the
allocation of the allowance for loan losses for the largest loan
category, commercial real estate mortgage loans, increased steadily
to correspond with increases in the total volume of loans and the
level of loan losses in these categories. The Bank's practice is
to make specific allocations to specific loans and unspecified
allocations to each loan category based on Management's risk
assessment. The following table sets forth the allocation of the
allowance for loan losses by loan category as of the dates
indicated.

Deposits

The Bank competes for deposits in Hawaii principally by
providing quality customer service at its branch offices. The
Bank, over the years, has developed a relatively large and stable
base of core deposits which consists of noninterest-bearing demand,
interest-bearing demand and savings deposits and time deposits
under $100,000. The Bank does not purchase brokered deposits.

Total deposits at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were
$1,138.3 million, $1,081.9 million and $1,078.3 million, respectively.
Deposits increased in 1995 by 5.2% compared with the 0.3% growth recorded for
1994. Interest-bearing deposits, excluding time deposits of $100,000 and

41
greater, decreased by 1.2% in 1995 and 0.6% in 1994.  Noninterest-bearing
deposits increased by 4.7% in 1995 and decreased by 9.7% in 1994. The Bank's
ratio of core deposits to total deposits was 77.1% at December 31, 1995, 81.2%
at December 31, 1994 and 83.5% at December 31, 1993. Time deposits of
$100,000 and greater increased by 28.1% to $260.3 million in 1995 over the
$203.2 million in 1994 which increased by 14.1% over the $178.1 million in
1993. See "ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- Financial Condition."

The following table sets forth information regarding the average
deposits and the average rates paid for certain deposit categories for each
of the periods indicated. Average balances are computed using daily

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The executive offices of the Company and the Bank are located
at 220 South King Street, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813.

All Bank properties, except for the properties in which the
Hilo and Moiliili branches and the operations center are situated,
are occupied under leases which expire on various dates through
2019, and, in most instances, include options to renew. For the
year ended December 31, 1995, net rent expense under these leases
aggregated $4.7 million. For additional information relating to
lease rental expense and commitments, see Note 16 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1995 Annual Report which
is incorporated herein by reference.

CPB Properties is a general partner and the managing partner
with a 50% interest in CKSS. Other partners in CKSS are Kajima
Development Corporation, a general partner, Sumitomo Corporation
and Sumitomo Corporation of America, limited partners. CKSS was
formed to develop, construct and lease a 22-story office building
complex in the downtown financial district of Honolulu at the
corner of King and Alakea Streets, which now serves as the
Company's and the Bank's headquarters. The building contains
201,865 square feet of rentable space of which approximately 64,000
square feet are occupied by the Company. CKSS carried the building
complex on its books at a net book value of $39.5 million as of
December 31, 1995. To finance the building, CKSS entered into loan
agreements with The Sumitomo Bank, Limited ("Sumitomo") and the
Bank, whereby Sumitomo agreed to lend $20.0 million and the Bank
agreed to lend $4.0 million to CKSS. Both loans are secured by
real estate and are due on November 18, 1996. As of December 31,
1995, the Bank had advanced pursuant to this loan agreement the sum
of $500,000. As of the same date, Sumitomo had advanced
pursuant to its loan agreement the sum of $10.7 million. The

44
investment in CKSS is carried on the books of the Company under the
equity method of accounting. See Notes 1 and 7 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1995 Annual Report which
is incorporated herein by reference.

In October 1992, CPB Properties, as lessor, entered into a
lease agreement with CKSS for certain real property located in
Kaimuki, Hawaii, effective from January 1, 1993 to December 31,
2047. Under the terms of the lease, CKSS would develop a 4-story
office building (the "Kaimuki Plaza").

On April 30, 1993, CKSS and the Bank entered into a building
loan agreement to borrow up to $12.2 million at .75% above LIBOR to
finance the Kaimuki Plaza. At December 31, 1995, the Bank had
advanced $11.3 million pursuant to this loan agreement. The weighted average
interest rate on all loans related to the Company's headquarters and Kaimuki
Plaza at December 31, 1995 was 6.636%.

In November 1994, the Bank entered a 25-year lease agreement
with CKSS to lease office space in the Kaimuki Plaza for its
Kaimuki Branch. The lease is effective from November 1, 1994
through October 31, 2019.

The Bank holds title to the land and building in which the
Hilo branch office is situated. CPB Properties holds title to a
portion of the land and the building in which the Moiliili branch
office is situated. CPB Properties also holds title to the land on
which the operations center is located. There are no encumbrances
with respect to these properties.
