PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS GENERAL Beal Financial Corporation ("Beal Financial" and with its subsidiaries the "Company"), a Texas corporation, was organized by the stockholders of Beal Bank, SSB (the "Bank") for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank, which it indirectly owns through its wholly owned subsidiary, Beal Banc Holding Company, a Delaware corporation. Beal Financial is owned primarily by D. Andrew Beal, Chairman of the Board of the Bank. Beal Financial, through Beal Banc Holding Company, acquired ownership of the Bank in July 1995 and is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"). The most significant asset of Beal Financial is its indirect ownership of the capital stock of the Bank. At December 31, 1996, the business of the Company consisted primarily of the business of the Bank and its subsidiaries. All references to the Company, unless otherwise indicated, prior to July 1, 1995 refer to its subsidiaries, including the Bank and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31 in connection with its tax election to be treated as a Subchapter S corporation. See "Federal and State Taxation--Federal Taxation." The Bank, a privately held Texas-chartered savings bank headquartered in Dallas, Texas, was originally chartered in 1988 as a Texas-chartered savings and loan association. Effective December 1, 1994, the Bank converted to a Texas savings bank charter. This conversion was made primarily to eliminate the duplicative regulation and supervision of the Bank by the OTS and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). Prior to December 1994, the name of the Bank was "Beal Banc, S.A." See "Regulation." Beal Financial is subject to regulatory oversight and examination by the OTS and the Texas Savings and Loan Department (the "Texas Department"). The Bank is subject to regulation by the Texas Department, as its chartering authority, and by the FDIC as a result of its membership in the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") administered by the FDIC, which insures the Bank's deposits up to the maximum extent permitted by law. The Bank also is subject to certain regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board") and currently is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Dallas, one of the 12 regional banks which comprise the FHLB System. The Company's primary business currently consists of purchasing pools of performing and, to a lesser extent, non-performing mortgage loans secured by single-family (one to four units) residences, multi-family residential real estate (over four units), commercial real estate and, to a much lesser extent, undeveloped land and business assets. These loans are generally purchased at discounts from the principal balances of the loans ("discounted loans") primarily from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"), the FDIC and private sector sellers located nationwide. The Company had purchased a significant amount of discounted loans from the Resolution Trust Company (the "RTC") prior to December 31, 1995, the date of the RTC's termination. The Company's current business strategy emphasizes the ongoing identification and purchase of discounted loans, primarily secured by real estate, which management believes are undervalued due to market, economic and competitive conditions. See "-- Loan Acquisition, Resolution, Origination and Sale Activities." The Company has from time to time examined the possibility of lending to, or investing through its subsidiaries in, real estate related projects or other business ventures in various foreign countries. In this regard, the Bank has implemented a lending program approved by the Texas Department to originate up to $25.0 million of commercial real estate loans secured by assets located in Mexico. To date, the Bank has funded one commercial real estate loan with a balance of $4.5 million, net, at December 31, 1996. See "--Foreign Lending Activities" and-- "Subsidiaries of the Bank." The Company funds its discounted loan purchases and loan originations primarily through the attraction of deposits from the general public, including brokered deposits, and, to a lesser extent, borrowings from the FHLB of Dallas and other sources. The Company has branch offices located in Winnetka, Illinois and Dallas and Houston, Texas. See "Sources of Funds--Deposits." 1
10KT4055th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th
The Company originates a limited amount of commercial real estate loans mainly in its primary market area. The Company considers its primary market area for deposits and loan originations to consist of Collin, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Kaufman, Rockwall, Fort Bend, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery and Waller counties, Texas and Cook, DuPage, McHenry and Lake counties, Illinois. These counties consist of communities comprising the Dallas, Houston and the Chicago/Lake County metropolitan statistical areas, respectively. In addition to its loan purchasing and lending activities, the Company is engaged in direct equity real estate investments, including the development of residential lots through the Bank's subsidiaries, Beal Mortgage, Inc. ("BMI") and Beal Properties Inc. ("BPI") and through various single purpose subsidiaries. At December 31, 1996, the Company's real estate held for development totaled $19.2 million. BMI and BPI also held in the aggregate $11.0 million of income producing properties (primarily consisting of the buildings located adjacent to the Bank's corporate headquarters). See "-Subsidiaries of the Bank." During the six months ending December 31, 1996, the Company purchased the inactive Bank subsidiaries Beal Delaware Corp. and its subsidiary Beal Business Trust ("BBT") from the Bank and invested, through BBT, $2.6 million in a joint venture to develop 533 acres of land located in Austin, Texas zoned for light industrial and commercial/retail use. In addition, the Company purchased from the Bank a 45.1% participation interest in certain loans for a payment of $18.5 million. The participation agreement provides that the Company's interest in the loans will be junior to the Bank's interest in that the principal amount of loans owed to the Bank will be repaid prior to the principal amount owed to the Company. See "Lending Activities--General." In addition, the Company is engaged in the ownership of multi-family projects that qualify for low-income housing tax credits through the Bank's subsidiary, Beal Affordable Housing ("BAH"). BAH has invested a total of $26.9 million in three affordable housing apartment buildings at December 31, 1996. See "--Subsidiaries of the Bank" and "--Regulation -Federal Regulation of State-Chartered Savings Banks." At December 31, 1996, the Bank was a "well capitalized institution" as defined in FDIC regulations and had tier 1 capital to total assets ("leverage capital ratio"), tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ("tier 1 capital ratio") and total capital to risk-weighted assets ("total risk-based capital ratio") of 10.1%, 12.8% and 14.0%, respectively. As a result of the nature of the Bank's core business, acquiring assets (including assets of failed financial institutions) together with the significant growth the Bank has experienced, the Bank and its subsidiaries have been subject to closer supervisory monitoring and more frequent field examinations, including special examinations. See "Regulation -Texas Law and Supervision by the Texas Department" and "--Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC." The executive offices of the Company are located at 15770 N. Dallas Parkway, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75248. Its telephone number at that address is (972) 404-4000. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS When used in this Form 10-K or future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases or other public or shareholder communications, or in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate," "project," "believe" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and to advise readers that various factors, including regional and national economic conditions, changes in levels of market interest rates, credit risks of lending activities, and competitive and regulatory factors, could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from those anticipated or projected. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligations, to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements. 2

LENDING ACTIVITIES GENERAL. Commencing in 1990, the Company began purchasing pools of performing and, to a lesser extent, non-performing discounted loans. The discounted loans which have been acquired by the Company to date consist primarily of single-family and multi-family residential loans, commercial real estate loans, land, consumer and commercial business loans which have been acquired from the RTC, the FDIC and the HUD, primarily in auctions of pools of loans acquired by those agencies from failed financial institutions and to a much lesser extent, private sector sellers. At December 31, 1996 the Company's gross loan portfolio totaled $1.4 billion. The Company's unaccreted purchase discounts and fees at December 31, 1996 totaled $344.3 million. The Company's gross loan portfolio at December 31, 1996 was comprised primarily of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans (19.4%), commercial real estate loans (27.2%) and multi-family residential real estate loans (32.7%). The balance of the gross loan portfolio included land loans (6.7%), construction and development loans (5.2%), consumer loans (6.4%) and commercial business loans (2.4%). At December 31, 1996 the Company's net loan portfolio totaled $1.1 billion. The Company's net loan portfolio at December 31, 1996 was comprised primarily of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans (21.7%), commercial real estate loans (26.6%) and multi-family residential real estate loans (30.6%). The balance of the net loan portfolio included land loans (7.0%), construction and development loans (5.3%), consumer loans (7.4%) and commercial business loans (1.4%). At December 31, 1996, approximately 20.4% of the Company's gross real estate mortgage loans (including one- to four-family junior lien loans classified as consumer loans) were secured by real estate properties located in Texas. The Company also has loans secured by real estate properties (including one-to four-family junior lien loans) located in California and Florida, representing 19.5% and 13.3% of the Company's gross loan portfolio, respectively. At December 31, 1996, there were no other states where loans secured by real estate properties (including one- to four-family junior lien loans) exceeded 5%. The balance of the Company's real estate mortgage loans were secured by properties located in the northeast, the midwest, and throughout the rest of the United States. See "--Geographic Distribution of Real Estate Secured Loans." Texas law limits the maximum amount the Bank may lend to one borrower or group of related borrowers to the greater of $500,000, or 15%, of unimpaired capital and surplus. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's loan to one borrower limit was $21.3 million. At that date, the largest amount outstanding to any one borrower or group of affiliated borrowers was $22.5 million, net (which amount was in compliance with the Bank's loan to one borrower limitation at the time of origination) which was secured by 16 multi-family properties acquired from HUD in September 1996. At that time, because the relationship totaled $41.0 million, net, the Bank sold a $18.5 million loan participation to Beal Financial. These loans were non-performing at the time of purchase. Subsequent to December 31, 1996 seven loans were repaid in full reducing the Bank's and Beal Financial's balances to approximately $13.0 million and $10.7 million, net. The Bank is currently in the process of foreclosing on the remaining properties. The next largest relationship totaled $19.6 million, net, and consisted of nine letters of credit aggregating $17.6 million, net, secured by a pledge of mortgage-backed securities with a market value of $18.3 million at December 31, 1996 and the balance of $2.0 million, secured by first liens on three small office buildings located in Houston, Texas. The Bank's third largest relationship consists of first and second mortgages on a multi-family property located in Massachusetts acquired from HUD, totaling $15.0 million, net at December 31, 1996. This loan is performing in accordance with its forbearance agreement. See "Regulation" for a discussion of the Bank's loans-to-one borrower limit. The Company has no other loans in excess of $15.0 million, net to any borrower or group of related borrowers but had five such lending relationships in excess of $10.0 million, net (aggregating $64.4 million), an additional 10 such lending relationships in excess of $7.5 million, net (aggregating $83.4 million), an additional 10 such lending relationships in excess of $5.0 million, net (aggregating $58.1 million) and an additional 67 such lending relationships in excess of $2.0 million, net (aggregating $193.5 million). At December 31, 1996, 13 of these lending relationships in excess of $2.0 million, net, aggregating $63.4 million were non-performing. See "--Loan Delinquencies and Non-Performing Assets." 3

The total amount of gross loans due after December 31, 1997, which have predetermined interest rates is $542.5 million, while the total amount of gross loans due after such date which have floating or adjustable interest rates is $293.7 million. Scheduled contractual principal repayments do not reflect the actual maturities of loans because of prepayments and, in the case of conventional mortgage loans, due-on-sale clauses. The average life of mortgage loans, particularly fixed-rate loans, tends to increase when current mortgage loan rates are substantially higher than rates on existing mortgage loans and, conversely, decrease when rates on existing mortgages are substantially higher than current mortgage loan rates. Further, as a result of the use of the level yield method or "interest method" of accretion of the purchase discount pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, to the extent loan repayments exceed scheduled loan amortizations, the accretion of the remaining purchase discount, if any, would be accelerated. GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION OF REAL ESTATE SECURED LOANS. The Company's loans are secured by properties located throughout the United States. Some of these loans are located in states which are reported to be experiencing adverse economic conditions, including a general softening in real estate markets and the local economies, which may result in increased loan delinquencies and loan losses. The Company attempts to address this geographic risk by only purchasing loans that meet the Company's underwriting and investment standards. Management believes that purchasing loans secured by properties located across the country results in a diversified loan portfolio and overall lower risk. As of December 31, 1996, the Company's gross real estate collateralized loans (excluding junior liens secured by one- to four-family real estate totaling $77.5 million) were geographically distributed as follows: [Enlarge/Download Table] OUTSTANDING NON-PERFORMING TOTAL REAL ESTATE SECURED BALANCE AT PERCENT BALANCE AT LOANS BY GEOGRAPHIC DECEMBER 31, OF TOTAL DECEMBER 31, PERCENT OF LOCATION 1996 OUTSTANDING 1996 NON-PERFORMING ---------------------------------------------------- ------------ ------------- -------------- ----------------- Texas............................................... $ 265,334 20.4% $ 27,884 8.5% California.......................................... 250,353 19.2 55,821 17.0 Florida............................................. 178,192 13.7 109,697 33.5 Illinois............................................ 57,278 4.4 876 .3 Massachusetts....................................... 55,344 4.3 6,447 2.0 Colorado............................................ 49,770 3.8 7,659 2.3 Louisiana........................................... 39,137 3.0 25,501 7.8 All others.......................................... 406,461 31.2 94,029 28.7 ------------ ----- -------------- ----- Total real estate loan portfolio.................... $1,301,869 100.0% $ 327,914 100.0% ------------ ----- -------------- ----- ------------ ----- -------------- ----- At December 31, 1996, there were no other loan concentrations in any other state which exceeded three percent of the total real estate loan portfolio. 7

LOAN ACQUISITION, RESOLUTION, ORIGINATION AND SALE ACTIVITIES GENERAL. The Company has limited the development of its direct lending operations. In order to avoid the cost of developing lending programs where demand is deemed to be insufficient or competition would reduce the return to the Company below acceptable levels, the Company historically has invested and intends to continue to invest a significant percentage of its assets in discounted loans. The Company believes that under appropriate market conditions the acquisition of discounted loans offers a better return than the origination of mortgage loans. Historically, discounted loans purchased by the Company generally have collateral coverage which is substantially in excess of the purchase price of the loan. In addition, the Company believes that discounted loans can be purchased on terms which result in the investment having a total return which is substantially in excess of an equivalent investment in originated mortgage loans. It should be noted, however, that the acquisition of discounted loans has become more competitive in the marketplace, in part because of the presence of additional competitors for discounted loans offered by the HUD, the FDIC and private sector sellers and because the HUD and the FDIC generally sought to increase the number of purchasers of assets sold by them. The Company continues to review and bid to acquire a substantial amount of performing discounted loans and, to a lesser extent, non-performing discounted loans. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to continue to acquire discounted loans in the future at either the same volumes or the same level of discounts as experienced in the past. Moreover, the significant earnings achieved by the Company on the discounted loan portfolio in recent periods may be attributable in part to early resolution of the least difficult non- performing loans in acquired pools. As a result, there can be no assurance that the level of earnings on discounted loans experienced by the Company to date are necessarily indicative of the results to be experienced in future periods or that there will not be substantial periodic variations in the results from such activities. Prior to entering the discounted loan business, management of the Company, particularly, Chairman D. Andrew Beal, had loan acquisition and resolution and real estate management experience. His experience assisted the Company in developing the procedures and systems which are necessary to evaluate and acquire discounted loans and to resolve such loans in a timely and profitable manner. All reviews of discounted loans are initially performed through Loan Acceptance Corporation ("LAC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, of which D. Andrew Beal is President. LAC places bids on pools of discounted loans in anticipation of assigning its interest in the loan pool to the Bank following acceptance of its bid. All purchases by the Bank are made within the parameters set by the Board of Directors of the Bank for loan purchases and originations, as discussed below. The Bank's Junior Loan Committee, comprised of President Meek, Executive Vice President Farmer, Senior Vice President-Lending Saurenmann, Senior Vice President--Commercial Loans Enright and Vice President--Loan Servicing O'Neal may approve loan originations and purchases or a modification or extension of any existing loan when the net book value is $250,000 or less. (Any three members shall constitute a quorum.) The Bank's Senior Loan Committee, comprised of Chairman Beal, President Meek, Executive Vice President Farmer, Senior Vice President--Lending Saurenmann and Senior Vice President--Commercial Loans Enright, may approve all loan purchases and originations or a modification or extension of an existing loan from $250,000 to $1.0 million in net book value. (Any three members shall constitute a quorum.) The Bank's Executive Loan Committee, comprised of Chairman Beal, President Meek and Directors Blanton, Fults, Goldstein and Weinstein (with Directors Farmer, Arnold and Eastland substituting for a missing member) may approve, with at least three affirmative votes, all loan purchases and originations or a modification or extension of an existing loan in excess of $1.0 million in net book value. Notwithstanding the above, full Bank Board approval is required for all purchases of non-performing assets which would result in the Bank's ratio of classified assets to total capital exceeding or projected to exceed 70% at any month-end. (A quorum is defined as four members, two of which must be non-officer Directors.) 10
10KT40514th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
Loan sales, sales of foreclosed assets and other significant loan related transactions are approved in accordance with written policies requiring approval by a designated officer, two officers or by an appropriate Committee based on the type of transaction and the net book value of the asset. In addition to making substantial investments in discounted loans, the Company originates a limited amount of commercial real estate and other loans. During calendar year 1996, the Company discontinued both its origination and purchase of home improvement loans through its correspondent lending relationships and began winding down its construction lending activities. Originations, Purchases and Sales of Mortgage Loans. During fiscal years ending June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company purchased $524.7 million, $346.2 million and $124.7 million of loans, net of discount, respectively. During the six months ending December 31, 1996, the Company purchased $273.9 million of loans, net of discount. The Company services $1.1 billion of its gross loan portfolio directly, including virtually all of its multi-family and commercial real estate loans, construction and land loans. The Company relies on approximately 150 other entities to service the remaining $364.0 million of its gross loans. Of this amount, at December 31, 1996, five entities individually service loans in excess of $10.0 million, aggregating $235.9 million, or 64.8% of the Company's loans serviced by others. No other entity services individually in excess of $9.6 million of the Company's gross loan portfolio. The Company attempts to consolidate the loan servicing when feasible, taking into consideration the relative costs and performance of the servicing entity. 11

ACQUISITION OF DISCOUNTED LOANS. Many of the discounted loans purchased by the Company are performing loans. In order to determine the amount that it will bid to acquire performing discounted loans, the Bank considers, among other factors, the yield expected to be earned, the geographic location of the loans, servicing restrictions, if any, the type and value of the collateral securing the loan and the length of time during which the loan has performed in accordance with its repayment terms. In order to determine the amount that it will bid to acquire non-performing discounted loans, in addition to the factors stated above, the Company estimates the amounts it will realize through its collection efforts or foreclosure and sale of the security property, net of expenses, and the length of time and costs required to complete the collection or foreclosure process. Prior to acquiring a pool of loans, LAC utilizes primarily third-party subcontractors to conduct an acquisition review of each loan pool. This review includes an evaluation of the seller's representations and warranties and of the adequacy of the applicable loan documentation (e.g., the existence of a note, including confirmation of the interest rate and outstanding loan balance, mortgage, title policy, borrower financial statements, tax returns, environmental reports, etc.). The current value of the security property is estimated utilizing various methods, considering, among other factors, the type of property, the loan balance, the recourse nature of the debt, the age and performance of the loan, and the resources of the borrower. For example, a performing, well seasoned pool of single family loans may receive a relatively limited collateral value review consisting of a drive by appraisal of select properties by a local broker, or in some cases, obtaining multiple broker opinions of value on all loans in the pool. As the value and complexity of the property increases, LAC's efforts to value the property also increase. For larger, more complex loans, LAC personnel may visit the collateral property, conduct an internal rental analysis of competing properties, or order asset searches on the borrowers and/or guarantors to identify other sources of repayment. New title searches and tax reports may also be obtained. LAC may also retain environmental consultants to review potential environmental issues. The amount of resources devoted to valuing collateral property is determined on a case by case basis for each pool acquired. An estimated value is prepared for each loan or pool of loans. The factors considered by LAC include the current status of the loan and the borrower (including payment history, bankruptcy and litigation considerations) taxes due, and, if non-performing, estimated foreclosure costs and length of time to conduct a foreclosure sale in the applicable state, estimated current market value of the property based on a limited marketing period, costs of taxes and insurance and maintenance of the property during the marketing period and fees and other costs incurred in connection with the sale of the property. The resulting price to be bid by LAC is generally at a discount from both the principal balance of the loan and the estimated value of the underlying collateral. All bids are prepared by or subject to the approval of LAC's President, D. Andrew Beal. If LAC is the successful bidder, a bid deposit, if required, will be forwarded to the selling entity. Prior to a loan being acquired, the Company's lending personnel, supplemented if necessary or appropriate by subcontractors, (generally different than the ones who conducted the initial evaluation review) perform a more in-depth review of the loan documents to determine and categorize the extent of loan documentation deficiencies and review LAC's analysis of value. The Company reviews loans by conducting a comprehensive inspection of all documentation relating to the loans and by obtaining current credit reports, when appropriate. Depending on the circumstances, the Company's due diligence team may use local counsel and engineering and environmental experts, to assist in the evaluation and verification of this information and the gathering of other information not previously made available by the seller. For example, there may be maintenance and occupancy problems associated with the collateral which this additional review may reveal. Based upon the review performed by the Company's lending personnel, a recommendation is made to the appropriate Company loan committee which determines whether the Company should purchase the loans covered by the bid. In the event that the Company's applicable loan committee declines to purchase the loans, the right to purchase may be sold to a third party or LAC may forfeit its deposit or be subject to additional penalties as set forth in the contract, including the remedy of specific performance. Upon purchase, each loan file is then reviewed by the loan servicing department to ensure the adequacy and completeness of the documentation securing the Company's interest in the underlying collateral and to correct loan documentation, and as appropriate, other file deficiencies. Large loans are assigned to a loan officer. Loan resolution alternatives for non-performing loans consist primarily of the following: (I) the borrower brings the loan current in accordance with original or modified terms, (ii) the borrower repays the loan, (iii) the Company sells the loan to a 13
10KT40517th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 17th
third party to resolve, (iv) the borrower agrees to deed the property to the Company in lieu of foreclosure, in which case it is classified as a foreclosed asset and held for sale by the Company, and (v) the Company forecloses on the loan and the property is either acquired at the foreclosure sale by a third party or by the Company, in which case it is classified as a foreclosed asset owned and held for sale by the Company. The loan officer evaluates all available information and pursues the best expected means of resolving the loan on the Company's behalf. In this regard, because the Company generally acquires the loan at a substantial discount from the outstanding principal balance of the loan and the value of the underlying collateral, the Company has the ability to modify the loan terms or otherwise make concessions to a borrower in the loan resolution process and still meet or exceed the targeted return to the Company. In the event of the bankruptcy of the borrower, the loan officer works closely with the Company's outside counsel. The loan officer determines the appropriate course of action, such as filing a proof of claim, moving to have the stay lifted or establishing procedures for monitoring the bankruptcy plan. The loan officer may also order property inspections and ensures that a current broker's opinion or appraisal is in the loan file. Property inspections continue until the loan is brought current or refinanced or the property is sold. A current broker's opinion of value is confirmed or an appraisal is also obtained prior to any foreclosure sale for bidding purposes. If a security property becomes a foreclosed asset, the Company obtains a new appraisal unless a current acceptable appraisal is available. The Company then determines whether any repairs should be made to the property and the initial price to list the property under circumstances which are intended to result generally in a quick sale of the property. The Company then markets the property and supervises the management of the property until it is sold. The Company also generally retains a management firm to manage its commercial and multi-family foreclosed assets. For information about the Company's foreclosed assets, see "--Loan Delinquencies and Non-Performing Assets." The Company generally anticipates a three to eighteen month period to resolve large non-performing commercial and multi-family real estate loans, which is longer than it generally takes to resolve the Company's discounted non-performing single-family residential loans due to the complexity and wide variety of issues that may occur with respect to a delinquent commercial or multi-family real estate loan. Unlike single-family residential loans, however, commercial and multi-family real estate loans frequently provide some income to the Company, which may be the case even in a bankruptcy situation if a receiver has been appointed for the property. One- to Four-Family Residential Mortgage Lending. At December 31, 1996, the Company's one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaled $276.6 million, or 19.4% of the Company's gross loan portfolio. At that date, the Company's net one- to four-family residential mortgage loan portfolio totaled $228.0 million, or 21.6% of the Company's net loan portfolio. The Company generally does not originate one- to four-family residential loans other than loans made to facilitate the sale of foreclosed assets, however, the Company has purchased such loans from correspondent financial institutions and brokers. Consistent with its asset/liability objectives, the Company may sell a portion of the purchased one-to four-family residential mortgage loans to the FNMA and other secondary market purchasers after the loan files have been reviewed and deficiencies corrected by Bank personnel to ensure loan documentation complies with the purchaser's standards. Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Company originates a limited amount of loans for the purchase, construction, refurbishing and development of commercial and multi-family real estate. Substantially all of the multi-family and commercial real estate loans originated by the Company are secured by properties located in the Company's primary market area. At December 31, 1996, $388.5 million, or 27.2% of the Company's gross loan portfolio, consisted of 826 loans secured by commercial real estate and $466.7 million, or 32.7% of the Company's gross loan portfolio, consisted of 495 loans secured by multi-family residential properties. At that date, $281.1 million, or 26.7% of the Company's net loan portfolio, consisted of loans secured by commercial real estate and $325.6 million, or 30.9% of the Company's net loan portfolio, consisted of loans secured by multi-family residential properties. 14
10KT40518th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 18th
Included in the multi-family residential portfolio are 89 loans aggregating $307.4 million in gross principal amount at December 31, 1996 ($199.5 million net of purchase discount). These loans were purchased from HUD primarily in three purchases occurring in October 1995, September 1996 and December 1996. All of these HUD Loans are secured by first mortgage liens. In addition, the Company has second mortgage liens on two of these properties. More than half of the properties which secure the HUD Loans are located in four states, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan and Louisiana, which had $93.4 million, $24.0 million, $23.8 million, $22.3 million gross principal amount of loans, respectively. The balance of the loans are located in 21 states throughout the country. The HUD Loans were acquired by HUD pursuant to various insurance programs of the FHA. Under programs of the FHA, a lending institution may assign a defaulted FHA-insured loan to HUD because of an economic hardship on the part of the borrower which precludes the borrower from making the scheduled principal and interest payment on the loan. Once a loan is assigned to HUD, the FHA insurance is paid and the loan is no longer insured. As a result, none of the HUD Loans are insured by the FHA. HUD assistance to borrowers is provided in the form of Provisional Workout Agreements ("PWA") which are forbearance agreements under which the borrower either makes a monthly payment less than or equal to the original monthly payment or makes a monthly payment more than the original monthly payment to make up for arrearages. These agreements vary in duration. Under the terms of the contract governing the sale of the HUD Loans, the Company is obligated to comply with the terms of any PWA until the term of the agreement expires or is canceled pursuant to its terms or there is a default under the PWA. The terms of commercial and multi-family real estate loans originated by the Company are individually negotiated on a case by case basis, however, these loans generally have terms ranging up to seven years with adjustable rates of interest. Rates on these loans generally float with changes in the prime rate. Such loans generally do not contain caps on the maximum amount of interest which may be charged over the term of the loan but may contain a floor below which the interest rate on the loan may not fall. In addition to the payment of principal and interest on these loans, the Company may receive an additional fee or a share in the profits from the project upon the completion of the construction or refurbishment of the underlying property. The Company's commercial and multi-family real estate loans provide for recourse against the security property and, in most circumstances, require the borrower to be personally liable for all or a portion of the loan. Multi-family and commercial real estate loans are generally underwritten in amounts of up to 85% of the lesser of cost or the appraised value of the underlying property. Appraisals on properties securing multi-family and commercial real estate loans originated by the Company are generally performed by an independent fee appraiser designated by the Company before the loan is made. All appraisals on multi-family and commercial real estate loans are reviewed by the Company's management. In addition, the Company's underwriting procedures require verification of the borrower's credit history, financial statements, references and income projections for the property. While the Company continues to monitor both purchased and originated multi-family and commercial real estate loans through its semi-annual asset review process, updated appraisals are not normally obtained after loan purchase or origination unless the Company's asset review process raises questions regarding the value of the collateral. In order to monitor the adequacy of cash flows on income-producing properties, the borrower is notified semi-annually, requesting financial statements and other information from the borrower and guarantor, including but not limited to information pertaining to rental rates and income, maintenance costs and an update of real estate property tax payments. Multi-family and commercial real estate loans generally present a higher level of risk than do loans secured by one-to four-family residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic conditions on commercial properties and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project. If the cash flow from the project is reduced (for example, if leases are not obtained or renewed), 15
10KT40519th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 19th
the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired. Commercial real estate loans also involve many of the same risks discussed below regarding construction loans. The Company has attempted to minimize these risks through its underwriting and investment standards and by lending primarily on existing income-producing properties. At December 31, 1996, $288.1 million, or 33.7% of the multi-family and commercial real estate gross loan portfolio, was delinquent 90 days or more, substantially all of which was purchased non-performing. At that date, net non-performing multi-family and commercial real estate loans totaled $123.3 million. Construction, Development and Land Lending. The Company initiated a construction and development lending program in January 1993. In August 1996, the Company decided to cease construction lending while continuing development lending. The Company originates development loans to developers, based on demonstrated experience and financial condition, primarily for the development of single family lots. These loans increase the yield on, and the proportion of interest rate sensitive loans in, the Company's portfolio. At December 31, 1996, development loans totaled $60.7 million or 4.3% of its gross loan portfolio and $45.0 million, net, or 4.3% of the Company's net loan portfolio. At December 31, 1996 the Bank has five development loans in excess of $2.0 million, net of $6.9 million, $4.9 million, $4.1 million, $3.9 million and $2.8 million, all of which are to develop properties located in Texas and all of which are performing in accordance with their respective repayment terms. The Company generally does not make construction loans on single-family residences to individuals who will ultimately be the owner-occupier of the house or construction loans to builders and developers for the construction of commercial real estate projects, including multi-family residences. The Company's construction loans for owner-occupied residential property do not convert to permanent loans upon completion of the construction phase. At December 31, 1996, the Company's construction loan portfolio totaled $13.7 million. At that date, the Company's construction loan portfolio, totaled $12.0 million, or 1.1% of its net loan portfolio. Substantially all of these loans are secured by property located within the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex or Austin, El Paso, Temple, Belton and Killeen, Texas. The application for this program generally required the builder to provide information to the Company, including the builder's financial condition, experience and other background information. Following the Company's independent review and acceptance of a builder into the program, the Company's appropriate loan committee established a guidance limit which represents the maximum amount of credit the Company will consider lending to the builder. At December 31, 1996, the Company had residential construction lines of credit outstanding to approximately 20 builders. The Company extended a builder a loan for up to a maximum of $400,000 per house. The Company obtains personal guarantees for substantially all of its construction loans. At December 31, 1996, the Company had 149 construction loans to builders of one- to four-family residences totaling $13.7 million gross (of which approximately 29.5% represented pre-sold homes) of which $12.1 million was funded. Construction loans for the construction of one- to four-family residences generally require the payment of interest only for a term of six to 12 months. Construction loans provide for the payment of loan origination fees from loan proceeds and carry adjustable rates of interest. Construction loan proceeds are disbursed in increments as construction progresses. Disbursements are scheduled by contract, with the Company reviewing the progress of the underlying construction project prior to each disbursement. The loan application process included a submission to the Company of accurate plans, specifications and costs of the project to be constructed. The Company also reviewed the borrower's existing financial condition and total debt outstanding. Loans are based on the appraised value of the underlying collateral, as completed. These items are also used as a basis to determine the appraised value of the subject property. Construction loans on pre-sold homes were based on the lesser of 80% of the current appraised value or 100% of the cost (land plus buildings) of construction (typically, 75% of the current appraisal value and 95% of the cost, respectively for construction loans on speculative or model homes). Draws on construction loans are made only after an inspection of the property is made by an experienced outside inspector or by Bank personnel with significant experience in the inspection of homes under construction. With respect to development loans originated by the Company, the builder or developer is required to submit detailed bids obtained from subcontractors which reflect the estimated costs of the project. The Company may require commitments for the purchase of the lots to be developed prior to the Company advancing funds. The Company's development loan agreements generally provide that principal repayments are required as individual lots are sold to third parties so that the remaining loan balance is in proportion to the value of the remaining security. 16

In addition to construction and development loans, the Company originates and has purchased land loans secured by residential lots and land held for the development of single-family lots and, to a much lesser extent, loans secured by land utilized for agricultural or ranching purposes. As of December 31, 1996, land loans totaled $95.7 million, or 6.7% of the Company's gross loan portfolio. At that date, net land loans totaled $74.2 million, or 7.0% of the Company's net loan portfolio. At December 31, 1996 the Bank has four land loans in excess of $2.0 million, net of $14.5 million, $10.6 million, $7.5 million, and $4.1 million, secured by land in the metropolitan areas of Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas and Los Angeles, respectively and all of which are performing in accordance with their respective repayment terms. These loans are generally underwritten in amounts up to 65% of appraised value and typically have terms that are individually negotiated on a case-by-case basis. The majority of land loans have adjustable rates of interest and some may have a profit participation interest. Construction, development and land lending is generally considered to involve a higher level of credit risk than permanent one- to four-family residential lending, due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and/or the effects of general economic conditions on development projects, real estate developers, managers or homebuilders. In addition, the nature of these loans is such that they are more difficult to evaluate and monitor. Construction and land loans also involve many of the same risks discussed regarding commercial and multi-family loans and tend to be more sensitive to general economic conditions than many other types of loans. The Company's risk of loss on a construction or land loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property's value upon completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project. Because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs and the market for the project upon completion, it is relatively difficult to evaluate accurately the total loan funds requested to complete a project, the related loan-to-value ratios and the likelihood of ultimate success of the project. If the estimate of construction or development cost proves to be inaccurate, the Company may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed in order to permit completion of the project. If the estimate of value proves to be inaccurate, the Company may be confronted, at or prior to the maturity of the loan, with a project having a value which is insufficient to assure full repayment. When loan payments become due, borrowers may experience cash flow from the property which is not adequate to service total debt. In such cases, the Company may be required to modify the terms of the loan. The Company attempts to mitigate these risks by dealing primarily with experienced builders. In addition, the Company monitors the progress and condition of homes under construction prior to each draw and verifies the history credit no less frequently than semi-annually through an independent credit reporting service. See "--Loan Delinquencies and Non-Performing Assets." At December 31, 1996, there were no construction loans and 42 land loans with aggregate gross principal balances of $9.4 million delinquent 90 days or more. At that date, net non-performing land loans totaled $2.9 million. CONSUMER LENDING. The Company originates loans secured by savings deposits and has purchased other consumer loans, including loans secured by timeshare agreements. At December 31, 1996, the gross consumer loan portfolio totaled $91.1 million, or 6.4% of the gross loan portfolio, and was predominately comprised of fixed-rate loans. At that date, net consumer loans totaled $75.7 million, or 7.2% of the Company's net loan portfolio. Prior to May, 1996, the Company indirectly originated and purchased one- to four-family junior lien loans from correspondent financial institutions, brokers and home improvement contractors. Although the loan documentation utilized was the seller's, the Company approved the loan prior to purchase utilizing the Company's underwriting standards and, in the case of home improvement contractors, funded the loan upon assignment. The underwriting standards employed included a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and an assessment of the ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although creditworthiness of the applicant was a consideration, because these loans were generally made to credit-impaired borrowers, the primary consideration in the underwriting process was a comparison of the value of the security in relation to the proposed loan amount. One- to four-family junior lien loans were generally made at fixed rates for terms of up to 15 years. Generally, such loans did not exceed 90% of the property's appraisal value less the amount owed, if any, on any other mortgages or liens. One- to four-family junior lien loans are secured by a lien on the underlying real estate. The Company required a title search on all one- to four-family junior lien loans. 17

Consumer loans may entail greater risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured. In some cases, the collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which may be recovered on such loans. At December 31, 1996, there were 1,202 consumer loans with aggregate gross principal balances of $17.3 million ($13.2 million, net of purchase discount) delinquent in excess of 90 days. COMMERCIAL BUSINESS LENDING. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $35.1 million in commercial business loans outstanding, or 2.5% of the Company's gross loan portfolio, all of which were purchased discounted loans. At that date, the Company had $12.5 million of net commercial business loans outstanding, or 1.2% of the Company's net loan portfolio. The Company's loans include loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Management does not currently contemplate any significant increase in the ratio of this portfolio to the Company's total loan portfolio. Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from his or her employment and other income, and which are secured by real property whose value tends to be more easily ascertainable, commercial business loans are of higher risk and typically are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower's business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself. Further, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. FOREIGN LENDING ACTIVITIES. The Company conducts its foreign lending in a subsidiary, 100% owned by Beal Bank, known as Foreign Lending Corporation. This lending is currently limited to Mexico, with the Texas Department posing no objection to this lending activity. The Bank's Board of Directors, with no objection from the Texas Department has set limits of $5.0 million per borrower, a requirement of underlying collateral with an appraised value at least equal to twice the loan amount and no more than $25.0 million in aggregate loans under this program. These limits may be increased in the future, with the concurrence of the Texas Department, as the subsidiary continues to develop relationships with borrowers that meet the programs criteria. The Company will opportunistically engage in lending in other countries. Foreign activity in any other country or expansion of the current Mexican program, will require prior written approval from the Texas Department. Foreign lending and investment generally involves greater risks than do lending and investment in the United States. Foreign economies differ favorably or unfavorably from the United States' economy in such respects as the level of inflation and debt, which may result in fluctuations in the value of the country's currency and real property. Therefore, all of the Bank's lending in Mexico requires that the loans be repaid in United States currency. Further, there may be less government regulation in various countries, and difficulty in enforcing legal rights outside the United States. Additionally, in some foreign countries, there is the possibility of expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitations on the removal of property or other assets, political or social instability or diplomatic developments which could affect the operations and assets of U.S. companies doing business in that country. Many of these risks are more pronounced for activities in developing or emerging countries. The Company's management has limited experience in the area of foreign lending or investment. As of December 31, 1996, one loan with a book balance of $4.5 million had been funded under this program. See "--Subsidiaries--Foreign Lending Corporation." At December 31, 1996, the Company had less than $1.5 million in principal balance of loans that were originated in the United States but secured by the right to use time-share properties located primarily in Spain, Mexico, Bermuda, the Bahamas or the Caribbean region. 18

LOAN DELINQUENCIES AND NON-PERFORMING ASSETS When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, the Company attempts to cause the delinquency to be cured by contacting the borrower. A past due notice is sent when the loan is 10 days past due. A delinquency notice is sent 15 days after the due date and a late charge is assessed in accordance with the loan terms. If the delinquency is not cured by the 30th day, a default warning is sent to the borrower. Other written and verbal contacts may be made with the borrower between five and 90 days after the due date. If the delinquency continues for a period of 90 days, the Company usually institutes appropriate action to foreclose on the property. If foreclosed, the property is sold and may be purchased by the Company. Delinquent consumer loans are handled in a generally similar manner.

The following table sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets in the Company's loan portfolio. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the collection of principal and/or interest become doubtful. Such loans remain on non-accrual status until the earlier of legal foreclosure, or relinquishment of control of the collateral by the borrower, or the collection of principal or interest is no longer doubtful. For all years presented, the Company has had no troubled debt restructurings (which involve forgiving a portion of interest or principal on any loans below net book value or making loans at a rate materially less than that of market rates). Foreclosed assets include assets acquired in settlement of loans.

FORECLOSED ASSETS. As of December 31, 1996, the Company had approximately $44.6 million in carrying value of foreclosed assets. Included in foreclosed assets were 64 one- to four-family mortgage loans aggregating $4.9 million (of which $1.3 million of assets are held by the Company's subsidiary, BRE-2), 48 commercial and multi-family real estate loans totaling $38.2 million (of which $3.4 million of assets are held by the Company's subsidiary, BRE), seven construction, development and land loans aggregating $1.1 million and four consumer timeshare loans totaling $.4 million. See "-Subsidiaries of the Company." OTHER LOANS OF CONCERN. In addition to the non-performing assets set forth in the previous table, as of December 31, 1996 the Company had approximately eight loans totaling $7.7 million of net loans, all of which are commercial and multi-family real estate loans, with respect to which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the security properties have caused management to have concern as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing asset categories. The largest other loan of concern totaled $1.9 million, net, at December 31, 1996. CLASSIFIED ASSETS. The FDIC requires the classification of a savings bank's problem assets. Management of the Company classifies all problem assets as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss." An asset is considered "substandard" if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. "Substandard" assets include those characterized by the "distinct possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss" if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as "doubtful" have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified "substandard," with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make "collection or liquidation in full," on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, "highly questionable and improbable." Assets classified as "loss" are those considered "uncollectible" and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. When the Company classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, it may establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to particular problem assets. When the Company classifies problem assets as "loss," it will charge off such amount. The Company reviews its asset portfolio and classifies certain assets semi-annually. In addition, the Company's determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is reviewed by the Texas Department and the FDIC during their examinations of the Company, which may result in the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. 22
10KT40526th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 26th
The Company reviews the problem loans and other assets to determine whether any loans or other assets require classification on a monthly basis. Net classified assets of the Company as of the dates indicated were as follows: DECEMBER 31, 1996 ---------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Substandard................................. $168,554 Doubtful.................................... 1,409 Loss........................................ -- -------- Total Classified Assets............... $169,963 -------- -------- ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES. The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activity. Such evaluation includes a review of the loan portfolio including those loans of which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, loan volume and growth, the composition of the loan portfolio and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate allowance for loan losses. The Company also developed certain asset review policies and procedures which established minimum general loan loss reserves for all types of loans. In determining the general reserves under these policies historical charge-offs and recoveries, changes in the mix and levels of the various types of loans, fair values, the current loan portfolio and current economic conditions are considered. These policies also require additional reserves for all delinquent and classified loans. See "Item 7 -Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." The Company establishes a specific allowance against a given loan when management perceives a problem in that loan that may result in a loss. The Company continues to monitor and modify its allowances for general and specific loan losses as economic conditions dictate. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level which it considers to be adequate to provide for potential losses, there can be no assurances that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require that additions be made based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination. Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less estimated cost to sell at date of foreclosure. Valuations are periodically performed by management and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated net realizable value. 23

INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES GENERAL. The investment policy of the Company, which is established by the Investment Committee and approved by the Company's and Bank's Board of Directors, is designed primarily to provide a portfolio of high quality, diversified instruments while seeking to optimize net interest income within acceptable limits of interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity. Generally, the investment policy of the Company is to invest funds in interest-bearing deposits in banks, FHLB overnight deposits, FHLB of Dallas stock and GNMA securities based upon the Company's liquidity needs and performance objectives. It is the Company's general policy to purchase investment securities which are U.S. Government securities and federal agency obligations and other issues rated investment grade. The Bank must maintain minimum levels of investments that qualify as liquid assets under the Texas Department regulations. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. The Bank maintains its liquidity at a level believed adequate to meet requirements of normal daily activities, repayment of maturing debt and potential deposit outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is maintained. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 16.5%. See "Regulation--Liquidity." Texas-chartered savings banks have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers' acceptances, repurchase agreements and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, Texas-chartered savings banks may also invest their assets in commercial paper, investment grade corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that a Texas- chartered savings bank is otherwise authorized to make directly.

The Company's investment securities portfolio at December 31, 1996, contained neither tax-exempt securities nor securities of any issuer with an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of the Company's stockholders' equity, excluding those issued by the United States Government, or its agencies. SOURCES OF FUNDS GENERAL. Beal Financial's primary source of funds are dividends which may be paid by the Bank. In addition, Beal Financial has the ability to access the capital markets, if necessary. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayment of loan principal, borrowings, and funds provided from operations and, from time to time, sales of assets. Management of the Bank closely monitors rates and terms of competing sources of funds on a regular basis and generally utilizes the sources which are the most cost effective. Borrowings, predominantly from the FHLB of Dallas, may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in deposits or deposit inflows at less than projected levels, and may be used on a longer-term basis to support expanded purchasing activities. DEPOSITS. The Bank's deposits consist of statement savings accounts, commercial demand deposit accounts, money market and certificate accounts. Certificates of deposit are the primary source of deposits because they generally are more responsive to market interest rates than other types of deposits, and thus more attractive to depositors. The Bank relies primarily on competitive pricing policies, advertising, and customer service to attract and retain these deposits. In this regard, the Bank generally prices its deposits at or above the highest rates offered by its competitors. In addition to retail deposits, from time to time the Bank obtains wholesale deposits through deposit brokers which solicit funds from their customers for deposit with the Bank. Brokered deposits amounted to $108.3 million or 10.4% of deposits at December 31, 1996. Brokered deposits generally are more responsive to changes in interest rates than retail deposits and, thus, are more likely to be withdrawn from the Bank upon maturity as changes in interest rates and other factors are perceived by investors to make other investments more attractive. Although, the Bank currently does not have any plans to increase its brokered deposits, the amount may vary depending on the Bank's need for liquidity and loan purchase activity. The Bank believes that it competes effectively for deposits; however, the Bank's ability to attract and retain deposits and the Bank's cost of funds have been, and will continue to be, significantly affected by general economic conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates and competition. The rates paid on deposit accounts offered by the Bank have allowed it to be competitive in obtaining funds and to respond with flexibility to changes in consumer demand. The Bank has become more susceptible to short-term fluctuations in deposit flows, as customers have become more interest rate conscious. The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits in keeping with its asset/liability management and profitability objectives. Based on its experience, the Bank believes that its statement savings and money market accounts are relatively stable sources of deposits. However, the ability of the Bank to attract and maintain certificate accounts, and the rates paid on these deposits, has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions. 27

Although deposits are the Bank's primary source of funds, the Bank's policy has been to utilize borrowings when they are a less costly source of funds. In addition, the Bank has relied upon selective borrowings for liquidity needs. The Bank obtains FHLB advances upon the security of certain of its residential first mortgage loans, and other assets, including FHLB stock, provided certain standards related to the creditworthiness of the Bank have been met. At December 31, 1996, advances were secured by stock in the FHLB totaling $9.6 million, qualifying first mortgage loans of approximately $144.0 million and other real estate of $3.9 million. FHLB advances are available for investment, purchasing and lending activities and other general business purposes. FHLB advances are made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate, which may be fixed or adjustable, and range of maturities. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's other borrowings consisted primarily of loans to the Bank's subsidiaries from unaffiliated third party lenders secured by certain real estate held for development or sale. 29

On August 9, 1995, Beal Financial issued $57.5 million of 12.75% Senior Notes due on August 15, 2000 (the "Senior Notes"). Of this amount, $46.3 million was contributed to the Bank in the form of paid in capital. The remaining net proceeds of the Senior Notes were retained by Beal Financial for the maintenance of a reserve equal to the annual interest expense on the Senior Notes and general operating expenses. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The Senior Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part at the option of Beal Financial. See Note H to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. For additional information relating to borrowings, see Notes G and H to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. At December 31, 1996, FHLB advances totaled $146.0 million, representing 10.5% of total assets. FHLB advances were used to fund purchases of discounted loans.

This corporation is not expected to engage in any activities other than holding the stock of the Bank. The sole director and president of this corporation is D. Andrew Beal. 30

During the six months ending December 31, 1996, the Company purchased the inactive Bank subsidiaries Beal Delaware Corp. and its subsidiary BBT from the Bank and invested, through BBT, $2.6 million in a joint venture to develop 533 acres of land located in Austin, Texas zoned for light industrial and commercial/retail use. In addition, the Company formed a new single purpose subsidiary to invest approximately $575,000 in a limited partnership to develop property in McKinney, Texas. SUBSIDIARIES OF THE BANK As a Texas-chartered savings bank, the Bank is permitted by federal regulations to have subsidiaries engage only in those subsidiary activities which are permissible for a subsidiary of a national bank. The FDIC may approve other activities for a subsidiary provided that the Bank meets its applicable minimum capital standards and the FDIC determines that the conduct of the activity of the subsidiary will not pose a significant risk to the SAIF. Under state law, a Texas-chartered savings bank is permitted to invest an unlimited amount in operating subsidiaries which are engaged solely in activities permissible for the Bank to engage in directly. The amount which a Texas-chartered savings bank may invest in other service corporation subsidiaries may not exceed 10% of the savings bank's total assets without the prior approval of the Texas Department. At December 31, 1996, the net book value of the Bank's investment in its subsidiaries was approximately $64.7 million (including $20.2 million invested in other service corporation subsidiaries). Under FDIC regulations, if a savings bank's subsidiary is engaged in activities not permissible for a national bank subsidiary, it may only engage in such activities with the approval of the FDIC. In the absence of such approval, the subsidiary must be divested. The Company has received regulatory approval for both its real estate investment and development activities to date. See "--Regulation--Federal Regulation of State-Chartered Savings Banks." The activities of the Bank's principal operating subsidiaries are briefly described below. BEAL MORTGAGE, INC. ("BMI") AND BEAL PROPERTIES, INC. ("BPI"). BMI and BPI are Texas corporations organized to engage in certain real estate development activities including the acquisition and development of land and direct investments in real estate development projects. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's investment in BMI and BPI totaled $12.4 million and $7.8 million, respectively. BMI and BPI are engaged in holding real estate held for investment and in real estate development projects. The purchase and development of property may be financed by the Bank or an unrelated third party. Once developed, the lots are sold to builders primarily for the construction of single-family dwellings. The Company intends to expand its direct investment activities in the future, subject to market conditions and regulatory approval. The Board of Directors of the Bank has determined to limit the Bank's investment in real estate development and investment activities to an amount which would enable the Bank to maintain capital, as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, at 6% of total assets, after deduction of its investment in real estate. In addition, the Bank's individual investment in BMI and BPI is limited by the FDIC to 10% of Tier I capital provided that Tier I capital is at least 6% after deduction of the Bank's investment in its real estate subsidiaries. See " Regulation--Federal Regulation of State-Chartered Savings Bank" and "--Regulatory Capital Requirements and Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action." BMI's largest direct single-family real estate development project consists of approximately 200 acres of land undergoing development in Coppell, Texas purchased in May 1995 for approximately $4.8 million. The purchase price was funded by a loan from the Bank. The sale contract included an option for one of the sellers to repurchase approximately 50 acres of the land for $2.2 million. This option was exercised subsequent to December 31, 1996, with a loan provided by the Bank. In addition, BMI has entered into a contract with the same individual to sell an additional 65.5 acres of single-family land for a purchase price of $2.1 million. BMI's second largest single investment in single-family real estate development consists of 68 acres located in Mesquite, Texas currently platted for 302 single-family lots. The land was purchased in July 1995 for $1.1 million with the proceeds of a loan from the Bank. BMI's current investment in this development totals approximately $3.5 million. BMI obtained third party financing for the development of Phase I which contains 123 lots and was completed in late 1996. A national home builder currently has a commitment to purchase all of the lots in Phase I and an option on all lots in Phase II and III. At December 31, 1996 three lots had been sold in Phase I. 31
10KT40535th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 35th
BMI has an investment of $914,000 in a single-family development located in Corinth, Texas. This investment represents Phase III of the development which originally contained 32 acres. BPI also has a $1.9 million investment in Phases IV, VII and VIII of the same development, containing a total of 88 acres. BPI also has $3.5 million invested in a single purpose subsidiary to develop a commercial/industrial park in Houston, Texas. At December 31, 1996, BPI had an additional investment in land with a book value of approximately $930,000 and an investment in a motel property of $1.4 million. BMI also holds $10.6 million in the aggregate of other real estate for investment, the largest component of which is Beal Bank Center II, an office building purchased in March 1995 and located adjacent to the Company's headquarters. At December 31, 1996, Beal Bank Center II had a book value of $8.7 million (subject to a $6.2 million first mortgage lien from an unaffiliated lender) and was 100% occupied. Two remaining properties held by BMI for investment had book values of $1.0 million and $942,000, respectively, at December 31, 1996. LOAN ACCEPTANCE CORP. ("LAC"). LAC was formed in July 1994 to bid on third-party loan pools, the majority of which are sold by the FDIC or the RTC. This activity was formerly conducted through BMI. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's investment in LAC totaled $7.3 million. See "--Lending Activities--Loan Acquisition, Resolution, Origination and Sale Activities." BRE, INC. ("BRE") AND BRE-2, INC. These Texas corporations were organized to hold loans and other assets which management of the Bank believes bear more than the normal risk of exposure to litigation. The most common problems with these assets include environmental contingencies and litigious histories of certain borrowers. At December 31, 1996, BRE held three commercial real estate loans and three commercial real estate properties. Two of these properties and two of the loans had a net book value in excess of $500,000. The two properties consist of a marina and a multi-family property, while the two loans in excess of $500,000 net, are secured by multi-family properties. BRE has performed full environmental reviews on all of its properties with minimal environmental problems found. The properties are operational and BRE plans to actively market the properties for sale. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's investment in BRE totaled $7.0 million. At December 31, 1996, BRE-2 held one condominium project with a book value of $1.3 million BEAL AFFORDABLE HOUSING, INC. ("BAH"). BAH was organized in November 1994 to develop affordable housing apartment buildings to take advantage of certain tax benefits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. BAH owns a 98% limited partnership interest in the three limited partnerships described below. BMI owns a 1% interest in and serves as the managing general partner for each limited partnership and a Texas-based, non-profit organization owns the remaining 1% interest in each limited partnership. The limited partners will receive 100% of any profits or cash distributions on their respective projects and will incur 100% of any cash related operating deficiencies and losses. Each of the projects is managed by a non-affiliated fee management company which specialize in the management of affordable housing properties. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's investment in BAH totaled $24.2 million. It is anticipated that BAH will receive tax credits of approximately $2.4 million per year for the next nine years. The limited partnerships are required to maintain minimum occupancy levels of qualified low-income tenants continuously throughout the 15-year compliance period beginning in the year the first low-income housing credit is claimed. Failure to comply with this occupancy requirement will result in recapture of all or part of the credits previously claimed. Each of the limited partnerships are in compliance with the required occupancy levels at December 31, 1996. FOREIGN LENDING CORPORATION ("FLC"). FLC was being established by the Bank for the purpose of originating, servicing or holding loans made to foreign borrowers with assets or collateral outside the United States, and/or domestic borrowers with collateral in foreign countries. FLC will also hold and manage to disposition any assets acquired in satisfaction of debt as a result of this lending activity. Pursuant to the Texas Department's approval letter, the amount of Mexican loans originated by this subsidiary may not exceed $25.0 million. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's investment in FLC totaled $4.6 million. See "--Foreign Lending." Lending and purchasing loans on properties outside the United States is subject to risks, including exposure to currency fluctuations, the imposition of government controls, the need to comply with a wide variety of foreign laws, political and economic instability, changes in tariffs and taxes, the greater difficulty of administering business 32
10KT40536th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 36th
overseas and general economic conditions. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protect the Company's property interests to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. COMPETITION The Company faces strong competition, both in purchasing discounted loans and originating real estate and other loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in purchasing discounted loans and originating real estate loans comes primarily from other savings institutions, commercial banks, mortgage bankers, real estate brokers and other private investors. Commercial banks and finance companies provide vigorous competition in consumer lending. The Company competes for real estate and other loan originations principally on the basis of the interest rates and loan fees it charges, the types of loans it originates and the quality of services it provides to borrowers. Some of the Company's competitors, however, have higher lending limits than does the Company. The Company attracts substantially all of its deposits through newspaper advertisements and its branch offices, within the States of Texas and Illinois. Competition for those deposits is principally from other savings institutions and commercial banks and other financial intermediaries. The Company competes for these deposits by offering deposit accounts at very competitive rates. EMPLOYEES At December 31, 1996, the Company, including its subsidiaries, had a total of 123 employees. The Company's employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to be good. REGULATION GENERAL. The Bank is a Texas-chartered savings bank and is subject to broad regulation and oversight by the Texas Department extending to all its operations. The Bank is also a member of the FHLB of Dallas and is subject to certain limited regulation by the Federal Reserve Board. The Bank is a member of the SAIF, which together with the BIF are the two deposit insurance funds administered by the FDIC. Accordingly, the deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC up to applicable limits and such insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. As a result, the FDIC has certain regulatory and examination authority over the Bank. As the savings and loan holding company of the Bank, the Company is also subject to regulation and oversight by OTS and the Texas Department. The purpose of the regulation of the Company and other holding companies is to protect the subsidiary savings bank. Certain of these regulatory requirements and restrictions are discussed below. See "--Federal Regulation of State Chartered Savings Banks" and "--Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC." Insured depository institutions, such as the Bank, and their institution-affiliated parties, which include the Company, may be subject to potential enforcement actions by the FDIC and the Texas Department for unsafe or unsound practices in conducting their businesses or for violations of any law, rule, regulation or any condition imposed in writing by such agencies or any written agreement with such agencies. See "-- Texas Law and Supervision by the Texas Department." The OTS may also bring enforcement actions due to its supervision of the Company. THE CONVERSION. Effective December 1, 1994, the Bank converted from a Texas-chartered savings and loan association to a Texas-chartered savings bank. As a result, the FDIC replaced the OTS as the Bank's primary federal regulator. In connection with the Bank's reorganization to the holding company form, effective July 1, 1995, OTS approved the Company's application to become a savings and loan holding company. See "--Qualified Thrift Lender Test and "--Holding Company Regulation." TEXAS LAW AND SUPERVISION BY THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT. As a state-chartered savings bank, the Bank is governed by the provisions of the Texas Savings Bank Act (the "Texas Act") and rules and regulations of the Texas Department. The Texas Act and regulations of the Texas Department are administered by the Commissioner. Certain of these rules and regulations are discussed below. 33
10KT40537th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 37th
The Bank is required to file reports with the Texas Department concerning its financial condition and activities in addition to obtaining regulatory approval prior to engaging in certain transactions. The Texas Department conducts periodic examinations of the Bank in order to assess its compliance with regulatory requirements. As a result of such examinations, the Texas Department may require various corrective actions. See "Risk Factors--Capital and Other Regulatory Matters." The Texas Act and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto impose restrictions on the amount and types of loans that may be made by a state savings bank, which in some cases, are slightly broader than those applicable to federally chartered savings associations; however, the Texas statute also permits a state savings bank to engage in any activity permissible for national banks. Under the Texas Act, however, the Bank must devote a majority of its assets to residential real estate lending. The Commissioner has general supervisory authority over savings banks and their holding companies. Upon his finding that a savings bank is engaging in or is about to engage in unsafe or unsound practices, or is engaging in or is about to engage in a violation of its articles of incorporation or bylaws, or is engaging in or is about to engage in a violation of any law, rule or supervisory order applicable to the savings bank or a violation of any condition that the Commissioner or the Finance Commission of the State of Texas has imposed upon the savings bank by written order, directive or agreement, or has filed materially false or misleading information in a filing required under the Act, or has failed to maintain proper books and records, he may order the savings bank or its holding company to discontinue the violation or practice. Upon failure of any savings bank, its holding company or any participating person to comply with his order, the Commissioner may bring an enforcement action which can include issuing a cease and desist order, the imposition of civil money penalties, or placing the institution under the control of a conservator. Furthermore, if it appears doubtful to the Commissioner that a savings bank subject to such a conservatorship order can be successfully rehabilitated, the Commissioner may close and liquidate the savings bank. The Bank's general permissible lending limit for loans-to-one borrower is equal to the greater of $500,000 or 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus (except for loans fully secured by certain readily marketable collateral, in which case, this limit is increased to 25% of unimpaired capital and surplus). At December 31, 1996, the Bank's lending limit under this restriction was $21.3 million. The Bank is in compliance with the loans-to-one borrower limitation. A change in control (as defined below) of a savings bank (which includes the Company for this purpose) requires the prior approval of the Commissioner. For the purposes of Texas law, control is be deemed to exist if any person owns or controls 25% or more of the voting securities of a savings bank. There is a rebuttable presumption of control if any person owns or controls 10% or more of the voting securities of the savings bank. The Commissioner also has the authority to regulate and examine the holding companies of Texas-chartered savings banks. Each holding company is required by Texas law to register with the Commissioner within 90 days after becoming a holding company. Such holding companies, like the Company, must file periodic reports concerning their operations with the Commissioner. The Commissioner also has enforcement powers over such holding companies similar to those applicable to savings banks. In addition to the laws of Texas specifically governing savings banks and their holding companies, the Bank and the Company are also subject to Texas corporate law, to the extent such law does not conflict with the laws specifically governing savings banks and their holding companies. Pursuant to its agreement with the Commissioner, the Bank has also agreed to maintain capital at a level higher than that which would otherwise be applicable to a state-chartered savings bank. See "-- Regulatory Capital Requirements" for additional information regarding the Bank's capital requirements. FEDERAL REGULATION OF STATE-CHARTERED SAVINGS BANKS. The Bank's deposits are insured by the FDIC. As an insurer of deposits, the FDIC has extensive authority over the Bank. The FDIC issues regulations, conducts examinations, requires the filing of reports and generally supervises the operations of institutions for which it provides deposit insurance. 34

The Bank is subject to the rules and regulations of the FDIC to the same extent as all other state banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System. The approval of the FDIC is required prior to any merger or consolidation, certain changes in control and the establishment or relocation of any branch office of the Bank. This supervision and regulation is intended primarily for the protection of the deposit insurance fund. With respect to a change in control, federal law provides that no person (which includes a corporation, partnership, association or other entity) directly or indirectly or acting in concert with one or more persons, may acquire "control" of a savings institution, such as the Bank (which includes the Company for this purpose) at any time without giving 60 days' prior notice to the FDIC and having received no FDIC objection to such acquisition of control, unless the transaction involves an acquisition of control by a company, in which case, the transaction would be subject to the approval of the OTS, rather than the FDIC. Control, as defined under federal law, means the power, directly or indirectly, to direct the management or policies of the institution or to vote 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the institution. In general, acquisition of 10% or more of any class of voting stock, constitutes a rebuttable determination of control if (I) the institution has any class of securities registered under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 or (ii) the person is the largest shareholder of such class of securities immediately following the acquisition. In determining whether to disapprove a notice of change in control, the FDIC must consider, among other things, the competitive effect of the transaction, the financial condition of the acquiror and the competence, integrity and experience of the acquiror and any proposed management personnel. The determination of control may be rebutted by submission to the FDIC of a statement setting forth facts and circumstances which would support a finding that no control relationship will exist and containing certain undertakings. The Bank is also subject to certain capital adequacy guidelines issued by the FDIC. See "--Regulatory Capital Requirements." Federal law also prohibits insured state-chartered banks, including savings banks such as the Bank, from making equity investments of a type, or in an amount, that are not permissible for national banks. In general, equity investments include equity securities, partnership interests and equity interests in real estate. Under these regulations, non-permissible investments must have been divested by no later than December 19, 1996. Federal law also prohibits such banks from engaging as principal in any activity not permissible for a national bank without FDIC approval. Subsidiaries of such insured banks may also not engage as principal in any activity that is not permissible for a subsidiary of a national bank without FDIC approval. Through its service corporations, BMI and BPI, the Bank engages in real estate development and investment activities ("Real Estate Activities"), which activities are not permissible for a national bank. The FDIC has authorized (the "FDIC Order") the Bank and BPI to continue to engage in these Real Estate Activities provided that it complies with certain requirements. These measures include requiring that any subsidiary through which the Real Estate Activities are conducted (each a "Real Estate Subsidiary") is operated to ensure its separate corporate existence, submission of an annual investment plan to the FDIC, measures to address concentration of risk, and calculating the Bank's compliance with regulatory capital standards exclusive of any investment in a Real Estate Subsidiary. See "--Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC and Regulatory Capital Requirements and Prompt Corrective Action." See "--Subsidiaries of the Bank." The FDIC and the other federal banking regulators have issued safety and soundness guidelines on matters such as loan underwriting and documentation, internal controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth, asset quality, earnings and compensation and other employee benefits. The FDIC has adopted final regulations providing that any institution it supervises which fails to comply with these guidelines must submit a compliance plan. A failure to submit a plan or to comply with an approved plan will subject the institution to further enforcement action. In addition, the OTS also has extensive enforcement authority over the Company. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with the OTS. See "--Holding Company Regulation." 35

INSURANCE OF ACCOUNTS AND REGULATION BY THE FDIC. The Bank is a member of the SAIF, which is administered by the FDIC. The Bank is subject to the rules and regulations of the FDIC to the same extent as all other state banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System. This supervision and regulation is intended primarily for the protection of the deposit insurance fund. In addition, the FDIC may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the FDIC. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings banks and may terminate the deposit insurance if it determines that the institution has violated any law or regulation or has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. Such enforcement actions may include the assessment of civil money penalties against the institution and its management, the imposition of a cease and desist order or supervisory agreement restricting any and all of the activities of the institution or requiring corrective action to be taken, the prohibition of dividends or other distributions of capital and the prohibition of a person from serving the institution in such capacity as a director, officer or employee. Any such enforcement action could be substantial and adversely affect the Bank, and thereby adversely affect the Company's ability to meet its obligations with respect to the Senior Notes. See "-Federal Regulation of State-Chartered Savings Banks." The FDIC's deposit insurance premiums are assessed through a risk based system, under which all insured depository institutions are placed into one of nine categories and assessed insurance premiums based upon their level of capital and supervisory evaluation. Under the system, institutions classified as well capitalized (i.e., a leverage ratio of at least 5%, a ratio of Tier 1 or leverage capital to risk-weighted assets ("Tier 1 capital") of at least 6% and a risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%) and considered healthy pay the lowest premium while institutions that are less than adequately capitalized (i.e., leverage or Tier 1 capital ratios of less than 4% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%) and considered of substantial supervisory concern pay the highest premium. Risk classification of all insured institutions is made by the FDIC for each semi-annual assessment period. Under the FDIC Order, the Bank's capital category will be determined exclusive of its investment in any Real Estate Subsidiary for purposes of deposit insurance premium assessments except in determining whether the Bank has become critically undercapitalized. The FDIC is authorized to increase assessment rates, on a semiannual basis, if it determines that the reserve ratio of the SAIF will be less than the designated reserve ratio of 1.25% of SAIF insured deposits. In setting these increased assessments, the FDIC must seek to restore the reserve ratio to that designated reserve level, or such higher reserve ratio as established by the FDIC. The FDIC may also impose special assessments on SAIF members to repay amounts borrowed from the United States Treasury or for any other reason deemed necessary by the FDIC. For the first six months of 1995, the assessment schedule for BIF members and SAIF members ranged from .23% to .31% of deposits. As is the case with the SAIF, the FDIC is authorized to adjust the insurance premium rates for banks that are insured by the BIF of the FDIC in order to maintain the reserve ratio of the BIF at 1.25% of BIF insured deposits. As a result of the BIF reaching its statutory reserve ratio the FDIC revised the premium schedule for BIF insured institutions to provide a range of .04% to .31% of deposits. The revisions became effective in the third quarter of 1995. In addition, the BIF rates were further revised, effective January 1996, to provide a range of 0% to .27%. The SAIF rates, however, were not adjusted. At the time the FDIC revised the BIF premium schedule, it noted that, absent legislative action (as discussed below), the SAIF would not attain its designated reserve ratio until the year 2002. As a result, SAIF insured members would continue to be generally subject to higher deposit insurance premiums than BIF insured institutions until, all things being equal, the SAIF attained its required reserve ratio. In order to eliminate this disparity and any competitive disadvantage between BIF and SAIF member institutions with respect to deposit insurance premiums, legislation to recapitalize the SAIF was enacted in September 1996. The legislation provided for a one-time assessment to be imposed on all deposits assessed at the SAIF rates, as of March 31, 1995, in order to recapitalize the SAIF. It also provided for the merger of the BIF and the SAIF on January 1, 1999 if no savings associations then exist. The special assessment rate was established at .657% of deposits by the FDIC and the resulting assessment of $2.0 million was paid in November 1996. This special assessment significantly increased noninterest expense and adversely affected the Bank's results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 1996. As a result of the special assessment, the Bank's deposit insurance premiums were reduced to zero based upon its current risk classification and the new assessment schedule for SAIF insured institutions. These premiums are subject to change in future periods. 36
10KT40540th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 40th
Prior to the enactment of the legislation, a portion of the SAIF assessment imposed on savings associations was used to repay obligations issued by a federally chartered corporation to provide financing ("FICO") for resolving the thrift crisis in the 1980s. Although the SAIF assessment schedule has been equalized with the BIF assessment schedule, effective October 1, 1996, SAIF-insured institutions will continue to be subject to a FICO assessment as a result of this continuing obligation. Although the legislation also now requires assessments to be made on BIF-assessable deposits for this purpose, effective January 1, 1997, that assessment will be limited to 20% of the rate imposed on SAIF assessable deposits until the earlier of December 31, 1999 or when no savings association continues to exist, thereby imposing a greater burden on SAIF member institutions such as the Bank. Thereafter, however, assessments on BIF-member institutions will be made on the same basis as SAIF-member institutions. The rates established by the FDIC to implement this requirement for all FDIC-insured institutions is 6.48 basis points assessment on SAIF deposits and 1.3 basis points on BIF deposits until BIF insured institutions participate fully in the assessment. These rates may be revised in the future based upon changes in the BIF and SAIF assessment base. The FDIC has promulgated regulations implementing limitations on brokered deposits pursuant to the requirements of federal law. Under the regulations, well capitalized institutions are not subject to any brokered deposit limitations, while adequately capitalized institutions are able to accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits only (I) with a waiver from the FDIC and (ii) subject to the limitation as to all such deposits that they do not pay an effective yield which exceeds by more than (a) 75 basis points the effective yield paid on deposits of comparable size and maturity in such institution's normal market area for deposits accepted in its normal market area or (b) 120% for retail deposits and 130% for wholesale deposits, respectively, the current yield on comparable maturity U.S. Treasury obligations for deposits accepted outside the institution's normal market area. Undercapitalized institutions are not permitted to accept brokered deposits, and may not solicit any deposits by offering any effective yield that exceeds by more than 75 basis points the prevailing effective yields on insured deposits of comparable maturity in the institution's normal market area or in the market area in which such deposits are being solicited. At December 31, 1996, the Bank qualified as a well capitalized institution and, as a result, was not subject to restrictions on brokered deposits. See "--Sources of Funds-Deposits." REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND PROMPT CORRECTIVE REGULATORY ACTION. All state-chartered institutions such as the Bank, which report to the FDIC as their primary federal regulator, must maintain regulatory capital in accordance with FDIC regulations. The FDIC has adopted a minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets of 3% for banks that have a uniform composite ("CAMEL") supervisory rating of 1. Higher leverage ratios are required to be considered well capitalized under the prompt corrective action provisions of federal law. The FDIC is also authorized to impose higher capital requirements on institutions on a case-by-case basis. The FDIC has also issued guidelines to implement the risk-based capital requirements. The guidelines require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%. The guidelines are intended to establish a systematic analytical framework that makes regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations, take off-balance sheet items into account in assessing capital adequacy and minimize disincentives to holding liquid, low-risk assets. Under these guidelines, assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet items, such as letters of credit and outstanding loan commitments, are assigned to one of several risk categories, which range from 0% for risk-free assets, such as cash and certain U.S. government securities, to 100% for relatively high-risk assets, such as loans and investments in fixed assets, premises and other real estate owned. The aggregate dollar amount of each category is then multiplied by the risk-weight associated with that category. The resulting weighted values from each of the risk categories are then added together to determine the total risk-weighted assets. The FDIC may also require an institution to maintain additional capital to account for the concentration of credit risk, the risk of non-traditional activities and for interest rate risk. Pursuant to the FDIC Order, the Bank must maintain a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6% after excluding the amount of its investment in BMI or any other subsidiary (such as BPI) through which it conducts Real Estate Activities. In addition, the aggregate investment in any one such subsidiary is limited to 10% of Tier 1 capital, and with respect to all such subsidiaries is limited to 20% of Tier 1 capital. 37
10KT40541st Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 41st
A banking organization's qualifying total capital consists of two components: Tier 1 capital (leverage capital) and Tier 2 capital (supplementary capital). Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common stock, related surplus and retained earnings, qualifying noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. Intangibles, such as goodwill, are generally deducted from Tier 1 capital; however, purchased mortgage servicing rights and purchase credit card relationships may be included, subject to certain limitations. At least 50% of the banking organization's total regulatory capital must consist of Tier 1 capital. Tier 2 capital may consist of (I) the allowance for possible loan and lease losses in an amount up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets and (ii) certain permanent and non-permanent capital instruments such as cumulative preferred stock and subordinated debt. The inclusion of the foregoing elements of Tier 2 capital are subject to certain requirements and limitations. The Texas Department has agreed to permit the Bank's continued asset growth, so long as the Bank maintains its current business activities and maintains minimum leverage and total risk-based capital ratios equal to or exceeding 9% and 11%, respectively, subject to temporary declines with prior approval from the Texas Department. The following table sets forth the Bank's compliance with its regulatory capital requirements at December 31, 1996: [Enlarge/Download Table] At December 31, 1996 ------------------------------------------------ Required(1) Actual ----------------------- ----------------------- Amount Percent Amount Percent ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- (Dollars in Thousands) Leverage capital....................................................... $ 123,125 9.00% $ 137,514 10.05% Tier 1 risk-based capital.............................................. 42,951 4.00 137,514 12.81 Total risk-based capital............................................... 118,117 11.00 150,703 14.03 ------------------------ (1) Required leverage and total risk-based capital requirements represent higher capital requirements imposed by the Bank's primary regulator as a condition to the Bank's continued asset growth. When assessing the Bank's capital adequacy the federal banking agencies, including the FDIC with respect to the Bank, must take into consideration the risk of loss from changes in the value of the institution's assets and liabilities due to changes in interest rates. The agencies have adopted a policy statement that provides guidance to institutions on the management of interest rate risk. Although the FDIC may require the Bank to maintain additional capital to address such risk, the Bank believes that in light of its interest rate risk profile it should not be required to maintain additional capital. The FDIC is authorized and, under certain circumstances required, to take certain actions against any state-chartered bank that fails to meet its capital requirements. The FDIC is generally required to restrict the activities of an "undercapitalized institution" (generally defined to be one with less than either a 4% leverage capital ratio, a 4% Tier 1 capital ratio or an 8% risk-based capital ratio). Any such institution must submit a capital restoration plan and until such plan is approved by the FDIC may not increase its assets, acquire another institution, establish a branch or engage in any new activities, and generally may not make capital distributions. The FDIC is authorized to impose the additional restrictions, discussed below, that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized institutions. Any institution that fails to comply with its capital plan or is "significantly undercapitalized" (i.e., Tier 1 or core capital ratios of less than 3% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%) must be made subject to one or more of additional specified actions and operating restrictions mandated by federal law. These actions and restrictions include requiring the issuance of additional voting securities; limitations on asset growth; mandated asset reduction; changes in senior management; divestiture, merger or acquisition of the institution; restrictions on executive compensation; and any other action the FDIC deems appropriate. An institution that becomes "critically undercapitalized" (i.e., a tangible capital ratio of 2% or less) is subject to further mandatory restrictions on its 38
10KT40542nd Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 42nd
activities in addition to those applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations. In addition, the FDIC must appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution, with certain limited exceptions, within 90 days after it becomes critically undercapitalized. Under the FDIC Order, the Bank's capital category will be determined exclusive of its investment in any Real Estate Subsidiary for purposes of these prompt corrective regulations except in determining whether the Bank has become critically undercapitalized. In the event that the Bank fails to remain well capitalized at the and of any quarter as a result of these conditions, it is required to notify the FDIC within 15 days and to file an acceptable plan for restoring capital to the well-capitalized level. Any undercapitalized institution is also subject to other possible enforcement actions by the FDIC. Such actions could include a capital directive, a cease-and-desist order, civil money penalties, the establishment of restrictions on all aspects of the association's operations or the appointment of a receiver or conservator or a forced merger into another institution. If the FDIC determines that an institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition or is engaged in an unsafe or unsound practice it is authorized to reclassify a well capitalized institution as an adequately capitalized association and if the institution is adequately capitalized, to impose the restrictions applicable to an undercapitalized institution. If the institution is undercapitalized, the FDIC is authorized to impose the restrictions applicable to a significantly undercapitalized institution. The purpose of these provisions is to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions at the least possible long-term cost to the appropriate deposit insurance fund. Any undercapitalized depository institution must submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to the appropriate federal banking agency 45 days after becoming undercapitalized. In addition, each company controlling an undercapitalized depository institution must provide a 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 FDIC 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 provisions. The imposition by the FDIC of any of these measures on the Bank may have a substantial adverse effect on the Company's operations and profitability. Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions. Under Texas law, a savings bank may declare and pay dividends out of current and retained income so long as the savings bank meets its capital requirements. The Bank is required to provide notice to the OTS at least 30 days' prior to the declaration of a dividend by the Bank to the Company. In a letter from the OTS dated July 8, 1996, the OTS acknowledged that notice has been given by the Bank to pay additional dividends, as needed, up to 60% of earnings from July 1, 1995 through June 30, 1996. The FDIC has the authority to prohibit the Bank from engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting its business and under such authority could impose dividend restrictions. Further, the FDIC has established guidelines with respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels of capital by savings banks under its 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 described herein could limit the amount of dividends which the Bank may pay to the Company. In addition, federal law prohibits an insured depository from paying dividends on its stock or interest on its debentures (if such interest is required to be paid only out of net profits) or distribute any of its capital assets while it is in default in the payment of any assessment due to the FDIC. Liquidity. All Texas savings banks, including the Bank, are required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the Texas Department. A Texas savings bank is required to maintain liquidity in an amount not less than 10% of an amount equal to its average daily deposits for the most recently completed calendar quarter in cash or readily marketable securities. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 16.5%. 39
10KT40543rd Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 43rd
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. All state-chartered savings banks with holding companies governed by the OTS, including the Bank, are required to meet a qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test to avoid certain restrictions on their operations. This test requires a savings association to have at least 65% of its portfolio assets (which consists of total assets less intangibles, properties used to conduct the Bank's business and liquid assets not exceeding 20% of total assets) in qualified thrift investments on a monthly average for nine out of every 12 months on a rolling basis. Such assets primarily consist of residential housing related loans and investments. At December 31, 1996, the Bank met the test and has always met the test since its effective date except for the month ending December 31, 1995. In the event that the Bank should fail to qualify as a QTL, it would not be able to requalify for a period of five years. Upon such a failure, the Company would lose its status as a savings and loan holding company and would be required to register as a bank holding company and become subject to the activity restrictions applicable to such companies. See "--Holding Company Regulation." Community Reinvestment Act. Under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"), all FDIC insured institutions have a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with its safe and sound operation to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it limit an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the CRA. The CRA requires the FDIC, in connection with the examination of the Bank, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of certain applications, such as a merger or the establishment of a branch, by such institution. An unsatisfactory rating may be used as the basis for the denial of an application by the FDIC. The Bank received a "satisfactory" rating on its last CRA examination. Subsequent to that examination, the Bank applied for and received approval from the FDIC, to be designated as a wholesale institution for purposes of evaluation under the revised CRA. The federal banking agencies, including the FDIC, have recently revised the CRA regulations and the methodology for determining an institution's compliance with the CRA. Due to the heightened attention being given to the CRA in the past few years, certain financial institutions have been required to devote additional funds for investment and lending in its local community. At December 31,1996, no additional requirements have been imposed on the Bank. There can be no assurances that additional requirements will not be imposed on financial institutions, including the Bank, in the future. In addition, the Texas Act and regulations impose a requirement that a savings bank maintain investments equal to at least fifteen percent of its local area deposits in first and second lien residential mortgage loans or foreclosed residential mortgage loans originated from within the Bank's local service area; home improvement loans; interim residential construction loans; mortgage backed securities secured by loans from within the bank's local service area; and loans for community reinvestment purposes. The Bank's local service area is currently delineated to include Collin, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Fort Bend, Harris, Johnson, Kaufman, Liberty, Montgomery, Parker, Rockwall, Tarrant and Waller Counties, Texas. At December 31, 1996, the Bank was in compliance with the requirements of the Texas Act. Transactions with Affiliates. The Bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by federal and state 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 in accordance with federal law. Further, such transactions by the Bank with the Company or with 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 law). In addition, any transaction with an affiliate of the Bank must be on terms and under circumstances that are substantially the same as a comparable transaction with a non-affiliate. Additional restrictions on transactions with affiliates may be imposed on the Bank under the prompt corrective action provisions. Holding Company Regulation. The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company is registered with and files reports with the OTS and is subject to regulation and examination by the OTS. In addition, the OTS has enforcement authority over the Company and its non-savings bank subsidiaries which also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined 40
10KT40544th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 44th
to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings bank. The Company is also subject to regulation by the Texas Department. See "--Texas Law and Supervision by the Texas Department." As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not subject to activity restrictions. If the Company acquires control of another savings association as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple savings and loan holding company, and the activities of the Company and any of its subsidiaries (other than the Bank or any other SAIF-insured savings institution) would become subject to such restrictions unless such other institutions each qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory acquisition. If the Bank fails the QTL test, the Company must register as, and will become subject to, the restrictions applicable to bank holding companies. The activities authorized for a bank holding company are more limited than are the activities authorized for a unitary or multiple savings and loan holding company. See "--Qualified Thrift Lender Test." The Company must obtain approval from the OTS before acquiring control of any other savings association. Such acquisitions are generally prohibited by federal law if they result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings associations in more than one state. However, such interstate acquisitions are permitted based on specific state authorization or in a supervisory acquisition of a failing savings institution. Federal Securities Law. The Senior Notes are registered with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). As a result, the Company is subject to certain information, insider trading restrictions and other requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act. The Senior Notes held by persons who are affiliates (generally officers, directors and principal shareholders) of the Company may not be resold without registration or unless sold in accordance with certain resale restrictions. If the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the public market, without registration, a limited number of securities in any three-month period. Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board requires all depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts). At December 31, 1996, the Bank was in compliance with these reserve requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements that may be imposed by the Texas Department. See "--Liquidity." Savings associations are authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank "discount window," but Federal Reserve Board regulations require associations to exhaust other reasonable alternative sources of funds, including FHLB borrowings, before borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank. Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Dallas, which is one of 12 regional FHLBs, that administers the home financing credit function of savings associations. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by the board of directors of the FHLB. These policies and procedures are subject to the regulation and oversight of the Federal Housing Finance Board. All advances from the FHLB are required to be fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the FHLB. In addition, all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home financing. As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB of Dallas. At December 31, 1996, the Bank had $9.6 million in FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. In past years, the Bank has received substantial dividends on its FHLB stock. For six months ended December 31, 1996, dividends paid by the FHLB of Dallas to the Bank totaled $278,420, which constitutes an $144,362 increase over the amount of dividends received in the six months ended December 31, 1995. Under federal law, the FHLBs are required to provide funds for the resolution of troubled savings associations and to contribute to low- and moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income housing projects. These 41

contributions have affected adversely the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so in the future. These contributions could also have an adverse effect on the value of FHLB stock in the future. A reduction in value of the Bank's FHLB stock may result in a corresponding reduction in the Bank's capital. Federal and State Taxation Federal Taxation. Beal Financial Corporation filed with the Internal Revenue Service on March 13, 1997, to elect Subchapter S status for federal income tax purposes effective January 1, 1997. This election covered all subsidiaries of Beal Financial, including the Bank, except for BAH and BRE-N, Inc. (an inactive subsidiary), which elected to remain Subchapter C Corporations for federal tax purposes. Concurrent with the change to Subchapter S status, Beal Financial and all subsidiaries changed their tax and fiscal year ends to December 31 from the previous June 30 year ends. Therefore, Beal Financial and subsidiaries will file a consolidated Subchapter C federal tax return for the six months ended December 31, 1996. In the future, Beal Financial and all subsidiaries electing Subchapter S status will not pay any federal taxes on net income. The only exception will involve possible Subchapter C tax liability on net built-in gains as of January 1, 1997, which may be recognized during the 10 year period ending December 31, 2006. Recognition of built-in gains/losses are subject to certain limitations. Beal Financial has not yet determined the amount of net built-in gains, as of January 1, 1997 or the estimated amount of Subchapter C taxes to be paid in future periods. BAH and BRE-N will continue to pay federal income taxes as C-Corporations. Except as discussed above, the future tax liability for the taxable earnings of Beal Financial and subsidiaries will be the responsibility of the shareholders of Beal Financial. It is anticipated that future dividends to shareholders will be made to meet their tax liability related to the earnings of Beal Financial. The Company and its subsidiaries filed consolidated federal income tax returns on a fiscal year basis using the accrual method of accounting. Savings associations, such as the Bank, that file federal income tax returns as part of a consolidated group are required by applicable U.S. Department of the Treasury regulations to reduce their taxable income for purposes of computing the percentage bad debt deduction for losses attributable to activities of the non-savings association members of the consolidated group that are functionally related to the activities of the savings association member. The percentage of specially computed taxable income that was used to compute a savings association's bad debt reserve deduction under the percentage of taxable income method (the "percentage bad debt deduction") was 8%. The percentage bad debt deduction thus computed was reduced by the amount permitted as a deduction for non-qualifying loans under the experience method. The availability of the percentage of taxable income method permitted qualifying savings associations to be taxed at a lower effective federal income tax rate than that applicable to corporations generally (approximately 32.2% assuming the maximum percentage bad debt deduction). In August 1996, legislation was enacted that repealed the reserve method of accounting (including the percentage of taxable income method) used by many thrifts, including the Bank, to calculate their bad debt reserve for federal income tax purposes. As a result, large thrifts such as the Bank must recapture that portion of the reserve that exceeds the amount that could have been taken under the specific charge-off method for post-1987 tax years. The legislation also requires thrifts to account for bad debts for federal income tax purposes on the same basis as commercial banks for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995. The recapture will occur over a six-year period, the commencement of which will be delayed until the first taxable year beginning after December 31, 1997, provided the institution meets certain residential lending requirements. As a Subchapter-S Corporation, recapture will be treated as a built-in gain in the year recognized. To the extent earnings appropriated to a savings association's bad debt reserves for "qualifying real property loans" and deducted for federal income tax purposes exceed the allowable amount of such reserves computed under the experience method and to the extent of the association's supplemental reserves for losses on loans ("Excess"), such Excess may not, without adverse tax consequences, be utilized for the payment of cash dividends or other distributions to a shareholder (including distributions on redemption, dissolution or liquidation) or for any other purpose (except to absorb bad debt losses). As of December 31, 1996, the Bank's Excess for tax purposes totaled approximately $11.9 million. The management of the Company does not believe that the legislation will have a material impact on the Company or the Bank. 42

The Bank and its consolidated subsidiaries have been audited by the IRS with respect to consolidated federal income tax returns through June 30, 1995. With respect to years examined by the IRS, all deficiencies have been satisfied. In the opinion of management, any examination (including returns of subsidiaries and predecessors of, or entities merged into, the Company or Bank) would not result in a deficiency which could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company, the Bank and their consolidated subsidiaries. Texas State Income Taxation. The Company, the Bank and their subsidiaries currently file Texas franchise tax returns. Texas imposes a franchise tax on the taxable income of savings institutions and other corporations. The Company and the Bank each pay an annual franchise tax equal to the greater of $2.50 per $1,000 of taxable capital apportioned to Texas, or $45.00 per $1000 net taxable earned surplus apportioned to Texas. Taxable earned surplus is the federal corporate taxable income of each company within the corporate group determined on a separate company basis with certain modifications. Delaware Taxation. As a Delaware holding company, the Beal Banc Holding Company is exempt from the Delaware corporate income tax but is required to file an annual report with and pay an annual fee to the State of Delaware. The Beal Banc Holding Company is also subject to an annual franchise tax imposed by the State of Delaware. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company conducts its business at its headquarters and branch offices. The following table sets forth information relating to each of the Company's properties as of December 31, 1996.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is involved in various legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. Management of the Company, based on discussions with litigation counsel, believes that such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. There can be no assurance that any of the outstanding legal proceedings to which the Company is a party will not be decided adversely to the Company's interests and have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. Set forth below is a summary description of the only lawsuit involving the Company claiming damages in excess of $500,000. Kenneth L. Musgrave vs. Beal Banc, S.A.; Cause No. 43,536-A in the 42nd District Court of Taylor County, Texas. In April 1994, the Bank acquired a promissory note with the face amount of $1.5 million (the "Note") executed by the plaintiff ("Plaintiff") from the FDIC. Thereafter, the Plaintiff negotiated with representatives of the Bank to settle the outstanding balance owed on the Note. Those negotiations stalled and the Bank foreclosed on the two pieces of property securing the Note in September 1994. Plaintiff filed suit against the Bank wherein he has asserted claims against the Bank and certain of the Bank's officers and directors for (a) intentional infliction of emotional distress; (b) breach of "duty to deal honestly and in good faith," (c) wrongful acceleration of the Note and wrongful foreclosure; and (d) fraud. All of the Plaintiff's claims arise out of the negotiations he conducted with representatives of the Bank to settle his debt on the Note. The Plaintiff claims that the Bank deliberately made various misrepresentations about its ownership of the Note, its willingness to settle his indebtedness on the Note and its conditional acceptance of his settlement offers in order to lull the Plaintiff into a position where the Bank would be able to foreclose on the properties securing repayment of the Note. The Plaintiff seeks $20.0 million in actual damages and $40.0 million in punitive damages. His alleged actual damages are based upon his contention that the value of the foreclosed properties exceeded the amount of his indebtedness to the Bank at the time of the foreclosures and the fact that he will lose approximately $2.0 million per year for the next ten years because he will not be able to bid on note packages offered for sale by the FDIC as a result of the Bank's foreclosure on his properties. Based on the information available to the Bank's litigation counsel at this time, they believe that the claims in this case are legally and factually without merit and can be successfully defended; however, because discovery is not complete and resolution of the case may involve determination of disputed facts, such counsel is unable to give an opinion as to the likely outcome. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders of the Company during the six months ended December 31, 1996. ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS There is no public market in the Company's common stock. The common stock is held of record by two stockholders.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The Company's results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is determined by the difference between the yield earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-costing liabilities ("interest rate spread"). The yield on interest-earning assets is enhanced by the accretion of unearned discounts, which are recognized on the level yield method as dictated by generally accepted accounting principles. Results of operations are also affected by the Company's provision for loan losses, the level of operating expenses, and the net gain (loss) from loans or other assets which have been sold. Due to the substantial discounts generally associated with the majority of the Company's purchased loans, the gains recognized upon the sales of such loans or the underlying collateral have been significant in prior years. 46
10KT40550th Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 50th
The Company's results of operations are also significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, competition, regulatory factors, and the monetary and fiscal policies of governmental agencies. The Company's primary business of purchasing discounted loans and assets is influenced by the general level of product available from U.S. government agencies and private sellers and the competition for such loans from other purchasers. Deposit flows and cost of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest primarily on competing investments, account maturities, and the levels of personal income and savings in the Company's market areas. Future changes in applicable law, regulations or government policies may also have a material impact on the Company. Asset/Liability Management The interest rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities will mature or reprice within the same period. The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities repricing within that same period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap could result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would result in an increase in net interest income and a positive gap would adversely affect net interest income. Management monitors the Bank's interest rate risk as one component of its business risk. The Bank has an Investment Committee consisting of the Chairman of the Board, the President, the Executive Vice President and two outside Directors. The Bank's Senior Vice President/Controller and Senior Vice President/Compliance also attend all Investment Committee meetings. This committee meets at least quarterly to review the Bank's interest rate risk position and profitability and to make recommendations for adjustments to the Bank's Board of Directors. This committee also reviews the Bank's portfolio, formulates investment strategies and oversees the timing and implementation of transactions to assure attainment of the Board's objectives in the most effective manner. In addition, the Committee reviews on a quarterly basis the Bank's asset/liability position, including the sensitivity of the market value of portfolio equity based on various interest rate scenarios. In managing its asset/liability mix, the Bank has, depending on the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and consumer preference, placed more emphasis on increasing net interest margin than on better matching the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities in an effort to enhance net interest income. Management believes that due to the high yield the Bank earns on its assets resulting from accretion of purchased discount, the increased net interest income resulting from a mismatch in the maturity of its asset and liability portfolios can, during periods of declining or stable interest rates, provide high enough returns to justify the increased exposure to sudden and unexpected increases in interest rates. In addition, the majority of the Bank's loan originations, renewals, or modifications are made at adjustable interest rates to improve the interest rate sensitivity of the Bank's loan portfolio. The Bank believes that it has the ability to restructure its liabilities very quickly by extending the maturities of FHLB advances and pricing deposits to attract funds with longer terms to maturity. It should be noted that an extension of maturities may result in a higher cost of funds. As indicated in the table below, at December 31, 1996, the Bank's interest-bearing liabilities repricing in one year or less exceeded interest-earning assets maturing during the same period by $537.9 million, resulting in a one-year negative gap equal to 47.9% of its interest-earning assets at that date. Despite the Bank's negative gap position, management believes that the Bank's interest rate risk is acceptable given its high yield on earning assets. This high yield is a direct result of (i) purchasing performing loans at a discount, (ii) prepayments of loans in full that have been purchased at a discount and (iii) successfully resolving non-performing loans so that they are performing and thus begin to amortize the discount as the loans are paid down. 47

The following table sets forth the interest rate sensitivity of the Bank's net assets and liabilities at December 31, 1996 on the basis of the following assumptions. It is assumed that adjustable-rate assets and liabilities would reprice at their earliest repricing date and fixed-rate assets and liabilities would reprice on their contractual maturity date. In addition, fixed-rate loans with original terms of five years or less and a balloon payment are treated as adjustable-rate loans and assumed to reprice in the period the balloon payment is due. It is further assumed that adjustable rate loans prepay at a rate of 20% per year and fixed rate loans are assumed to prepay at the rate of 10% per year. Money market deposit accounts ("MMDA's") and savings deposits are assumed to reprice in accordance with FIDICIA Section 305 guidelines, as follows: Fifteen percent of MMDA's are assumed to reprice in 0-3 months, 45% in 3-12 months and 40% in 1-3 years; savings deposits are assumed to reprice at 5% in 0-3 months, 15% in 3-12 months, 40% in 1-3 years and 40% in 3-5 years. All prepayment assumptions are based on the Bank's historical experience while liability repricing assumptions are based on industry averages used for the purpose of assessing interest rate sensitivity, which the Company believes does not differ materially from its historical experience. Balances in all instruments are kept stable with the assumption that runoff is reinvested in the same instrument. Nonaccrual loans are not reflected below.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rate. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgages, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would significantly change the results set forth in the foregoing table. The ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. The table below sets forth, as of December 31, 1996, the estimated changes in (i) the Bank's market value of portfolio equity ("MVPE") (i.e., the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts) and (ii) the Bank's net interest income on December 31, 1996, presented on an annualized basis which would result from the designated instantaneous changes in the U.S. Treasury yield curve. Yields used in the table to compute Net Interest Income and MVPE reflect actual effective yields for the quarter ended December 31, 1996, annualized.

As indicated in the table above, management has structured its assets and liabilities to increase net interest margin rather than minimize its exposure to interest rate risk. As a result, the changes in the Bank's MVPE reflected above exceed industry averages. In the event of a 400 basis point change in interest rates, the Bank would experience a 14.8% increase in MVPE and a $6.9 million increase in net interest income in a declining rate environment and a 62.0% decrease in MVPE and a $12.5 million decrease in net interest income in a rising rate environment. The Bank's asset and liability structure results in a decrease in MVPE in a rising interest rate environment and an increase in MVPE in a declining interest rate scenario. During periods of rising rates, the value of monetary assets and monetary liabilities decline. Conversely, during periods of falling rates, the value of monetary assets and liabilities increase. However, the amount of change in value of specific assets and liabilities due to changes in rates is not the same in a rising rate environment as in a falling rate environment (i.e., the amount of value increase under a specific rate decline may not equal the amount of value decrease under an identical upward rate movement). The decrease in MVPE in a rising interest rate environment is the result of management's use of relatively short-term liabilities to fund its purchases of loans with substantially longer terms to maturities. While this results in a decrease in MVPE during a rising rate environment and an increase in MVPE in a falling rate environment, management believes that the level of the Bank's net interest spread enables the Bank to incur this additional interest rate risk. Management of the Bank believes that the assumptions used by it to evaluate the vulnerability of the Bank's operations to changes in interest rates approximate actual experience and considers them reasonable; however, the interest rate sensitivity of the Bank's assets and liabilities and the estimated effect of changes in interest rates on the Bank's net interest income and MVPE could vary substantially if different assumptions were used or actual experience differs from the historical experience on which they are based. In addition, in evaluating the Bank's exposure to interest rate risk, certain other shortcomings inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table must be considered. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of 49
10KT40553rd Page of 100TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 53rd
assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayments and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. As a result, the actual effect of changing interest rates may differ substantially from that presented in the foregoing table. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company had total assets of $1.4 billion at December 31, 1996 representing an increase of $125.6 million or 9.9%, from $1.3 billion at June 30, 1996. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in net loans receivable of $156.8 million, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $10.6 million and an increase in real estate held for investment or sale of $18.4 million; partially offset by a decrease in securities available for sale of $70.8 million. The increase in net loans receivable was due primarily to the Company being the successful bidder on loan pools sold by various U.S. governmental agencies and to a lesser extent, to loan origination activity. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was the result of normal operations, including proceeds received from the sale of certain mortgage-backed securities from the securities available for sale portfolio. The increase in real estate held for investment or sale was primarily the result of additional real estate direct investments by the Bank's subsidiaries. Total assets increased $636.4 million or 100.6%, from $632.9 million at June 30, 1995 to $1.3 billion at June 30, 1996. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in net loans receivable of $405.1 million and an increase in securities available for sale of $154.0 million. The increase in net loans receivable was due primarily to the Company being the successful bidder on loan pools sold by various U.S. governmental agencies. The increase in securities available for sale resulted from the purchase of mortgage backed securities, purchased primarily for liquidity and to maintain regulatory compliance with the QTL requirements. In addition, real estate held for investment or sale increased $36.4 million or 88.4%, from $41.2 million at June 30, 1995 to $77.6 million at June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily due to the increased investment in residential developments. Total liabilities increased $102.0 million, or 8.7% from $1.2 billion at June 30, 1996 to $1.3 billion at December 31, 1996, primarily due to an increase in deposits of $152.1 million, or 17.1%, partially offset by a decline in FHLB advances of $39.0 million, a decline in other borrowings of $6.7 million and a decline of $4.5 million in other liabilities. The $152.1 million increase in deposits was made up of a $194.6 million increase in retail deposits from the Bank's three branches, offset by a $42.5 million decrease in brokered deposits. Advances from the FHLB of Dallas were repaid with the increased deposits and proceeds from the sale of mortgage backed securities. Total liabilities increased $595.6 million, or 102.6% from $580.5 million at June 30, 1995 to $1.2 billion at June 30, 1996, primarily due to FHLB advances and the issuance of $57.5 million of Senior Notes and increases in deposits. Savings deposits increased $433.1 million, or 94.5%, from $458.2 million at June 30, 1995 to $891.3 million at June 30, 1996. Of the $433.1 million net increase in savings deposits, $141.3 million were generated by the sale of certificates of deposits through various brokers, $179.7 million was due to deposits generated at the Company's branch located in Houston, Texas, which opened in April 1995 and $9.5 million was due to deposits generated at the Company's branch located in Winnetka, Illinois, which opened in March, 1996. Advances from the FHLB increased by $74.0 million to fund loan purchases. Stockholders' equity increased $23.6 million, or 25.4%, from $93.2 million at June 30, 1996 to $116.8 million at December 31, 1996. Stockholders' equity increased $40.8 million, or 77.8%, from $52.4 million at June 30, 1995 to $93.2 million at June 30, 1996. These increases were due to earnings. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL. The level of net income experienced by the Company in the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, and the six months ended December 31, 1996 resulted primarily from (i) the significant increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets and (ii) non-recurring gains on the sales of loans and foreclosed assets. Gains on the sales of loans and real estate generally are dependent on various factors which are not necessarily within the control of the Company, including market and economic conditions. As a result, there can be no assurance that the gains on sales of loans and real estate reported by the Company in prior periods will be reported in future periods or that there will not be substantial periodic variation in the results from such activities. 50

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following schedule presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and that due to the changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 Net Income. For the six months ended December 31, 1996, net income of $22.1 million represented an increase of $9.7 million, or 78.1% from $12.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 1995. As discussed in more detail below, the increase in net income was primarily due to a $28.1 million increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses coupled with a $2.4 million increase in non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense of $16.1 million and an increase in income taxes of $5.1 million. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $25.5 million, or 89.1%, from $28.6 million at December 31, 1995, to $54.1 million at December 31, 1996, due to an increase in average interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $413.7 million during this period primarily due to increases in the average balance of both loans receivable and mortgage-backed securities. In addition, net interest rate spread increased from 8.1% for the six months ended December 31, 1995, to 9.4% for the six months ended December 31, 1996 primarily due to an increase in the yield on interest earning assets from 14.4% to 15.5% for the six month period ending December 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Interest Income. Interest income increased by $36.4 million, or 70.4%, from $51.7 million at December 31, 1995 to $88.1 million at December 31, 1996. The increase in interest income was primarily due to a $16.8 million increase due to an increase in the amount of loans receivable and, to a $14.0 million increase in the discount accretion. In addition, the yield on interest earning assets increased by 1.17% for the six months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the same prior year period. This increased yield was primarily due to an increase in the yield on loans, net, from 15.4% for the six months ended December 31, 1995 to 17.1% for the six months ended December 31, 1996. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $10.9 million, or 47.2%, from $23.0 million at December 31, 1995 to $33.9 million at December 31, 1996 due primarily to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $369.9 million primarily due to an increase in the average balance of deposits of $361.6 million. The increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities more than offset the 15 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities from 6.30% for the six month period ending December 31, 1995 to 6.15% for the six month period ending December 31, 1996. Provision For Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses is determined by management as an amount sufficient to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate to absorb future losses inherent in the loan portfolio in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The provision for loan losses decreased $2.6 million, or 44.2% for the six months ended December 31, 1996 as compared to $5.9 million for the same period last year. The majority of this decrease was the result of a decline in the amount of loans purchased during the six months ended December 31, 1996, as compared to the same period last year. The Company establishes an allowance for loan losses based upon a systematic analysis of risk factors in the loan portfolio. This analysis includes an evaluation of the Company's loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, loan volume and growth, composition of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. Management's analysis results in the establishment of allowance amounts by loan type based on allocations by asset classification and specific allocations based on asset reviews. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of net non-performing loans was 6.5% at December 31, 1996 as compared to 5.2% at December 31, 1995. The primary reason for the increase in this ratio was due to an increase of $2.8 million in the allowance for loan losses from $10.4 million at December 31, 1995 to $13.2 million at December 31, 1996. Although management believes that it uses the best information available to determine the allowance, unforeseen market conditions could result in adjustment and net income could be significantly affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the final determination. Future additions to the Company's allowance will be the result of periodic loan, property and collateral reviews and thus cannot be predicted with absolute certainty in advance. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance level based upon their judgment of the information available to them at the time of their examination. 53

Non-Interest Income. Total non-interest income increased $2.8 million, or 38.8% to $10.1 million at December 31, 1996 from $7.3 million at December 31, 1995. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the income attributable to gain on real estate transactions of $3.7 million, partially offset by a decrease in the income attributable to the sale of loans of $2.3 million. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $16.2 million, or 153.4%, from $10.5 million at December 31, 1995 to $26.7 million for the same period in fiscal 1996, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $11.3 million, an increase in SAIF deposit insurance of $2.2 million related to the recapitalization of the SAIF, and an increase in other operating expenses of $2.0 million. The increase of $11.3 million in salaries and employee benefits was primarily due to a $10.5 million bonus paid to the Bank's Chairman, Andrew Beal in December 1996 for past services. The increases in other operating expenses, consisting principally of increases in legal expenses and loan servicing expenses, offset by a decrease in loan acquisition and origination expenses. The increases were primarily due to the Company's increased asset size, while the decrease was primarily due to the Company's decreased purchasing activities. Income Taxes. Income taxes increased $5.1 million from $7.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 1996 to $12.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 1996 due to an increase in taxable income for the 1996 period. The effective tax rate for federal income taxes was 34.8% for the 1995 period as compared to 33.1% for the 1996 period. The rate decrease was due primarily to the utilization of tax credits generated by BAH. The Company was subject to the highest federal corporate tax rate of 35% at December 31, 1996. Comparison of Operating Results for the Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 Net Income. The Company had net income of $44.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, as compared to $25.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. As discussed in more detail below, the increase in net income of $18.8 million, or 74.0%, was due primarily to an increase in net interest income of $41.3 million and an increase in non-interest income of $2.8 million, which more than offset the increases in the provision for loan losses of $5.0 million, non-interest expense of $10.3 million and income taxes of $10.0 million. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $41.3 million, or 96.5%, from $42.8 million in fiscal 1995 to $84.1 million in fiscal 1996, due to an increase in average interest-earning assets during fiscal 1996. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $501.9 million during this period primarily due to an increase in discounted loans purchased from the HUD and FDIC and, to a lesser extent, increased loan originations and purchases of mortgage-backed securities. In addition, net interest rate spread decreased from 10.54% for fiscal 1995 to 9.43% for fiscal 1996 primarily due to the purchase of lower yielding mortgage-backed securities and interest expense on the Senior Notes. Interest Income. Interest income increased by $77.1 million, or 120.9%, from $63.8 million at June 30, 1995 to $140.9 million at June 30, 1996. Of the total increase in interest income, $50.4 million was due to the increase in average interest-earning assets and $19.6 million was due to the increase in the purchase discount accretion. The increase in average interest- earning assets was primarily due to the increase in discounted loans purchased from the HUD and the FDIC and, to a lesser extent, increased mortgage-backed securities. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets more than offset the 31 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets from 15.93% during fiscal 1995 to 15.62% during fiscal 1996. This decrease in yield was due in part to increases in lower yielding mortgage-backed securities and in interest-earning deposits. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $35.8 million, or 170.8%, from $21.0 million for fiscal 1995 to $56.8 million for fiscal 1996 due primarily to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities and, to a lesser extent, the issuance of the Senior Notes. An increase in certificate accounts accounted for $25.7 million of the increase and the issuance of the Senior Notes accounted for $6.9 million of the increase. The average balance of savings deposits and certificate accounts increased $97.9 million and $435.4 million, respectively, between the two periods due to the opening of two new branch offices, increased rates paid on savings and certificate accounts and 54

increased deposit solicitation efforts as a result of management's decision to utilize such deposits to fund the purchase of discounted loans. The average rate paid on certificate accounts increased from 5.25% during fiscal 1995 to 5.95% for fiscal 1996. The increase in rates paid on deposits was due to increases in market rates of interest and management's decision to pay higher rates to obtain deposits. Provision For Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses is determined by management as an amount sufficient to maintain the allowance for loan losses after net charge-offs at a level considered adequate to absorb future losses inherent in the loan portfolio in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The increase of $5.0 million, or 123.6%, in the provision for loan losses from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996 was the result of an increase in the average outstanding balance of net loans receivable of $401.6 million, or 111.8%. In addition, at June 30, 1996, net non-accruing loans totaled $55.3 million, as compared to $36.0 million at June 30, 1995. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of net non-performing loans was 17.1% at June 30, 1995 as compared to 9.7% at June 30, 1996. The primary reason for the decline in this ratio was due to the purchase of multi-family non-performing loans for $132.6 million. Management believes that the underlying collateral value is sufficient to cover the Company's basis in these loans. Although management believes that it uses the best information available to determine the allowance, unforeseen market conditions could result in adjustment and net income could be significantly affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the final determination. Future additions to the Company's allowance will be the result of periodic loan, property and collateral reviews and thus cannot be predicted with absolute certainty in advance. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance level based upon their judgment of the information available to them at the time of their examination. Non-Interest Income. Total non-interest income increased $2.8 million, or 19.8% to $16.7 million for fiscal 1996 from $13.9 million for fiscal 1995. This increase was primarily due to an increase in gain on real estate transactions of $3.6 million and an increase of $1.1 million in other real estate operations, net, partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in gains on certain assets. Other real estate operations income, net, increased primarily due to an increase of $822,000 in real estate investment income. During fiscal 1996, the Company increased its earnings on real estate investments primarily due to the operations of two office buildings and three low income multi-family housing developments. The increase of $3.6 million in gains on real estate transactions was primarily due to an increase in foreclosures. During fiscal 1996, the Company discontinued the home improvement operations of Beal Acceptance Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank. The Company does not anticipate a material effect on operations as a result of this action. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $10.3 million, or 84.9%, from $12.2 million for fiscal 1995 to $22.5 million for fiscal 1996 primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $3.3 million and an increase in other operating expenses of $4.4 million. The increases in operating expenses, primarily due to the Company's purchasing activities and resultant increase in asset size were principally legal expenses, loan acquisition and origination expenses, loan servicing expenses, audit expenses and marketing expenses. The increase of $3.3 million in salaries and employee benefits was due to the addition of an average of 48 full-time equivalent employees as a result of the Company's increased asset size and an increase in annual bonuses of $614,000. Total full-time equivalent employees at June 30, 1996 were 113 compared to 93 at June 30, 1995. In addition, occupancy expense increased $1.1 million. Lastly, deposit insurance premiums increased $861,000 due the Company's deposit growth. Income Taxes. Income taxes increased $10.0 million from $15.2 million for fiscal 1995 to $25.2 million for fiscal 1996 due to an increase in taxable income for the 1996 period. The effective tax rate for federal income taxes was 34.8% for the 1995 period as compared to 33.1% for the 1996 period. The rate decrease was due primarily to 55

the utilization of tax credits generated by BAH. As a result of the increase in the Company's taxable income, the Company is currently subject to the highest federal corporate tax rate of 35%. Comparison of Operating Results for the Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 Net Income. The Company had net income of $25.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, as compared to $10.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994. As discussed below, the increase in net income of $14.6 million, or 135.2%, was due primarily to an increase in net interest income of $14.8 million, and an increase in non-interest income of $12.4 million, which more than offset increases in provisions for loan losses of $1.2 million, an increase in non-interest expense of $3.0 million and an increase in income taxes of $8.4 million. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $14.8 million, or 52.1%, from $28.0 million in fiscal 1994 to $42.8 million in fiscal 1995 due to an increase in net interest-earning assets in fiscal 1995 as compared to fiscal 1994. This increase was primarily due to an increase in discounted loans purchased and increased loan originations. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased from $163.4 million to $400.4 million due primarily to purchase of discounted loans. In addition, net interest rate spread decreased from 16.9% for fiscal 1994 to 10.5% for fiscal 1995 primarily due to the purchase of lower yielding one- to four-family loans. Interest Income. Interest income increased by $29.2 million, or 83.4%, from $34.6 million in fiscal 1994 to $63.8 million in fiscal 1995 due to an increase in interest-earning assets. Of the total increase in interest income, $22.8 million was due to the increase in the average balance of loans receivable and $5.6 million was due to the increase in purchase discount accretion. During fiscal 1995, the Company purchased $340.2 million in net discounted loans. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $14.4 million, or 221.5%, from $6.5 million in fiscal 1994 to $20.9 million in fiscal 1995 due to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities and an increase in the cost of funds primarily due to increases in market rates of interest and, to a lesser extent, management's decision to pay higher rates to obtain deposits. The average balance of certificate accounts increased $115.0 million, or 96.7%, from $118.9 million in fiscal 1994 to $233.9 million in fiscal 1995 as a result of the opening of the Houston, Texas branch office and increased advertising. The average outstanding balance of FHLB advances and other borrowings increased $98.1 million, or 351.6%, from $27.9 million in fiscal 1994 to $126.0 million in fiscal 1995. The Company utilized FHLB advances and deposits to fund discounted loan purchases. Provision For Loan Losses. The increase of $1.2 million, or 41.4%, in the provision for loan losses from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1995 was the result of an increase in net loans receivable of $273.3 million, or 124.3%, which includes an increase in non-performing assets of $25.2 million, or 128.6%, from $19.6 million at June 30, 1994 to $44.8 million at June 30, 1995 primarily due to the purchase of non-performing discounted loans. Non-Interest Income. Total non-interest income increased by $12.4 million, or 806.8%, from $1.5 million in fiscal 1994 to $13.9 million in fiscal 1995. This increase was primarily due to the non-recurring gain on the sales of interest-earning assets of $9.0 million, gain on sale of mortgage-backed securities of $788,000 and gain on the sales of real estate of $3.5 million. These increased gains were primarily due to sales of loans to the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") to generate additional capital to fund the Company's asset growth. Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased by $3.0 million, or 33.0%, from $9.1 million in fiscal 1994 to $12.1 million in 1995 primarily due to an increase in salaries from $3.4 million in fiscal 1994 to $4.9 million in fiscal 1995. The majority of this increase was due to the addition of 41 full-time equivalent employees during fiscal 1995. Total full-time equivalent employees at June 30, 1994 was 52 as compared to 93 at June 30, 1995 due to the Bank's asset growth. In addition, expenses related to discounted loan purchases from the FDIC and RTC increased $200,000 or 16.7%, from $1.2 million in fiscal 1994 to $1.4 million in fiscal 1995. This increase was a direct result of the increase in discounted loans purchases from the RTC and FDIC during fiscal 1995 and the level of due diligence required to determine the amount to bid. The increases in non-interest expenses such as occupancy, SAIF-deposit insurance premiums and third-party loan servicing fees were related to the Bank's asset growth and related increases in staff. In addition, the increases in advertising and promotion expenses were related to increased deposit solicitation. 56

Income Taxes. Income taxes increased from $ 6.8 million to $15.2 million primarily due to an increase in taxable income in fiscal 1995 as compared to fiscal 1994. The effective tax rate for federal income taxes was 35.0% for fiscal 1995 as compared to 34.0% in fiscal 1994. Liquidity and Capital Resources Beal Financial's primary sources of funds are dividends from the Bank and interest earned on its investments. The Bank's primary sources of funds for operations are deposits obtained from its market area, principal and interest payments on loans, and advances from the FHLB of Dallas and to a lesser extent, from the sale of assets. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. The primary investing activity of the Company is the purchase of discounted loans from the HUD and FDIC through the sealed bid process or auctions and other private sector sellers. During the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, the Company purchased $524.7 million, $346.2 million and $124.7 million, respectively, of net loans. During the six months ending December 31, 1996, the Company purchased $273.9 million of net loans. Loan originations for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994 were $138.4 million, $76.4 million and $67.3 million, respectively. Loan originations for the six months ending December 31, 1996 were $69.4 million. The Company's primary financing activity is the attraction of deposits. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company experienced a net increase in deposits of $433.2 million, $272.1 million and $93.2 million, respectively. During the six months ending December 31, 1996, the Company experienced a net increase in deposits of $152.1 million. The Company also utilizes FHLB advances to fund the Bank's discounted loan purchases. During the six months ending December 31, 1996 and the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company's net financing activity (proceeds less repayments) with the FHLB totaled $(39.0) million, $74.0 million, $86.0 million and $17.5 million, respectively. The Company had other borrowings of $21.8 million at December 31, 1996, including $57.1 million of Senior Notes. The Company has the ability to borrow additional funds from the FHLB of Dallas by pledging additional assets as collateral, subject to certain restrictions. At December 31, 1996, the Company had an undrawn advance arrangement with the FHLB for $1.9 million. The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the Texas Department. A Texas savings bank is required to maintain liquidity in an amount not less than 10% of an amount equal to its average daily deposits for the most recently completed calendar quarter in cash or readily marketable securities. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 16.5%. The Company's most liquid asset is cash and cash equivalents. The level of cash and cash equivalents is dependent on the Company's operating, financing, and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, cash and cash equivalents totaled $55.4 million, $31.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 1996, cash and cash equivalents totaled $65.9 million. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current commitments. At December 31 1996, the Company had commitments to purchase loans of $1.6 million and to originate loans of $33.4 million. Certificates of deposits which are scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 1996 totaled $518.9 million reflecting consumer preference for short-term investments in the current interest rate environment. Due to the Company's high interest rate spread, management has typically relied upon interest rate sensitive short-term deposits to fund its loan purchases. The Company believes the potential interest rate risk is acceptable in view of the Company's belief that it can maintain an acceptable net interest spread. The Company further believes that based on the levels of retention of such deposits in the recent past, that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Company. 57

At December 31, 1996, the Bank exceeded each of its three capital requirements. The following is a summary of the Bank's regulatory capital position at December 31, 1996. [Enlarge/Download Table] AT DECEMBER 31, 1996 ------------------------------------------------ REQUIRED(1) ACTUAL ----------------------- ----------------------- AMOUNT PERCENT AMOUNT PERCENT ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Leverage capital....................... $ 123,125 9.00% $ 137,514 10.05% Tier 1 risk-based capital.............. 42,951 4.00 137,514 12.81 Total risk-based capital............... 118,117 11.00 150,703 14.03 ------------------------ (1) Required leverage and total risk-based capital requirements represent higher capital requirements imposed by the Bank's primary regulator as a condition to the Bank's continued asset growth. See "Regulation--Regulatory Capital Requirements and Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action." Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Bank's operations. Nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are financial, unlike most industrial companies. As a result, the Company's performance is directly impacted by changes in interest rates, which are indirectly influenced by inflationary expectations. Since the Company has historically placed more emphasis on increasing net interest margin rather than on matching the maturities of interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities, changes in interest rates may have a greater impact on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Changes in investment rates do not necessarily move to the same extent as changes in the price of goods and services. Ratios of Earnings to Fixed Charges The Company's consolidated ratios of earnings to fixed charges for six months ended December 31, 1996 are set forth below. Earnings used in computing the ratios shown consist of earnings from continuing operations before taxes and interest expenses. Fixed charges, excluding interest of deposits, represent interest expense on borrowings. Fixed charges, including interest on deposits, represent all of the foregoing items plus interest on deposits. Interest expense (other than on deposits) includes interest on FHLB of Dallas borrowings, the Senior Notes and other borrowed funds.

BEAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In thousands) NOTE A--NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations: Beal Financial Corporation (the Company), through its subsidiary, Beal Bank ssb (the Bank), collectively, (the Corporation) operates three bank branches in Dallas and Houston, Texas and Winnetka, Illinois. The Bank's primary business consists of purchasing pools of loans generally at a discount from the principal balances of the loans. These loans are generally purchased from the Resolution Trust Corporation ("RTC"), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"). The Bank also provides loans and banking services to consumer and commercial customers in the market areas in which its branches are located. A summary of the significant accounting policies of the Corporation applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows. The accounting principles followed by the Corporation and the methods of applying them are in conformity with both generally accepted accounting principles and prevailing practices of the banking industry. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation, its subsidiaries including the Bank and subsidiaries of the Bank, and partnerships in which subsidiaries are the 1% general and 98% limited partner. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ form those estimates. Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are stated at unpaid principal balances less the allowance for loan losses, loans in process and net deferred loan origination fees and discounts. A loan is identified as impaired when it is probable that interest and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment on non-performing loans may be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, its observable market price, or fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Discounts on mortgage loans purchased by the Corporation are amortized to income using the interest method over a remaining period which is the longer of the contractual maturity or the remaining amortization term of the note. Upon early payoff, any remaining discount collected is taken into income and reflected in the financial statements as interest income. Discounts on consumer loans are recognized over the lives of the loans using methods that approximate the interest method. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. 67

BEAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In thousands) NOTE A--NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONTINUED Loans collateralized by real estate are classified as loans until legal title is transferred. Investment Securities: The Corporation classifies investments as available for sale and records them at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses on securities are reported in earnings in the year of sale. Loan-Origination Fees, Commitment Fees, and Related Costs: Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the estimated life of the loans based on the Corporation's historical prepayment experience. Commitment fees and costs relating to commitments, for which the likelihood of exercise is remote, are recognized over the commitment period on a straight-line basis. If the commitment is exercised during the commitment period, the remaining unamortized commitment fee at the time of exercise is recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment of yield. Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth, composition of the loan portfolio, and other relevant factors. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged to operations. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, 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 Corporation's allowance for loan losses. Real Estate Held for Investment and Sale: Real estate properties held for investment are carried at the lower of cost, including cost of improvements and amenities incurred subsequent to acquisition, or net realizable value (fair value). Costs relating to development and improvement of the real estate are capitalized, whereas costs relating to the holding of property are expensed. Real estate properties acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure. 68

BEAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In thousands) NOTE A--NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONTINUED Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its fair value. Income Per Common Share: Income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Statements of Cash Flows: For purposes of reporting cash flow, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: Buildings and improvements................................. 10-45 years Furniture and equipment.................................... 3-10 years Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Income Taxes: The Corporation and its subsidiaries file a Federal income tax return on a consolidated basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the 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 expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments: In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received. New Accounting Pronouncement: The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which is effective for financial statements issued after December 15, 1997. Early adoption of the new standard is not permitted. The new standard eliminates primary and fully diluted earnings per share and requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share together with disclosure of how the per share amounts were computed. The adoption of this new standard is not expected to have an effect on the disclosure of earnings per share in the financial statements. Fair Values of Financial Instruments: The Corporation provides disclosures regarding financial instruments as prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles. These disclosures do not purport to represent the aggregate net fair value of the corporation. Further, the fair value estimates are based on various assumptions, methodologies and subjective considerations which vary widely among different financial institutions and which are subject to change. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating financial instruments' fair values: 69

BEAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--CONTINUED (In thousands) NOTE A--NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES--CONTINUED Cash and cash equivalents: The balance sheet carrying amounts approximate the estimated fair values of such assets. Investment securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. Loans: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and entail no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on the carrying values. The fair values of other loans are estimated based on discounted cash flow analysis using interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Deposit Liabilities: The fair values estimated for demand deposits (interest and non-interest bearing accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values. Fair values of fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities. Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Other Borrowings: Fair values for Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings are based upon current market rates for instruments with similar maturities. Senior Notes: Fair value for senior notes is based upon the closing market price at December 31, 1996. NOTE B--FORMATION OF HOLDING COMPANY On April 5, 1995, the Company filed an application with the Office of Thrift Supervision for approval to acquire, indirectly, 100% of the outstanding common stock of the Bank in exchange for 100% of the Company's common stock. The application was approved on June 29, 1995 and the acquisition was effective on July 1, 1995. The accompanying financial statements as of and for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 1995 reflect the financial position and results of operations of the Bank and its subsidiaries. In connection with the acquisition of the Bank's common stock, the Company assumed certain related indebtedness of $2,500 from the majority shareholder. This amount has been reflected in stockholders' equity as a dividend. 70

The unearned discount is then accreted over the life of the loans using the interest method. In the Corporation's due diligence procedures and bidding, the Corporation takes into consideration potential loans to be modified in determining the price they are willing to pay for a particular pool. In connection with these loan purchases, the Corporation subsequently modifies the terms of certain loans included in the pools. The Corporation does not consider these to be troubled debt restructurings. The effective interest rate on the Corporation's modified loans is equal to or greater than the rate the Corporation would be willing to accept for a new loan with comparable risk. At December 31, 1996, all significant impaired loans have been determined to be collateral dependent and have been measured utilizing the fair value of the collateral. The Corporation's recorded investment in impaired loans and the related valuation allowance are as follows: [Enlarge/Download Table] December 31, 1996 June 30, 1996 ------------------------ ------------------------ Recorded Valuation Recorded Valuation Investment Allowance Investment Allowance ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Impaired loans--valuation allowance required....................... $ 12,755 $ 3,454 $ 24,233 $ 2,789 Impaired loans--no valuation allowance............................. 153,677 -- 71,035 -- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Total impaired loans............................................... $ 166,432 $ 3,454 $ 95,268 $ 2,789 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- 72

BEAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-CONTINUED (In thousands) NOTE I--REGULATORY MATTERS The Company is not subject to capital adequacy requirements by its primary regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Texas Savings and Loan Department (the Department) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), collectively, (regulators). Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total risk based and tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of leverage capital to total assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 1996, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. The Department set a capital standard of 11% for total risked based capital and 9% for leverage capital. Texas savings banks, including the Bank, are required to maintain a daily balance of liquid assets at least equal to 10% of the average daily balance of deposits for the preceding quarter. At December 31 and June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995, the Bank's liquidity ratios were 16.53%, 15.41% and 11.44%, respectively. Effective May 1995, the Department reduced the Bank's minimum total risked based capital ratio and leverage capital ratio to 10% and 7%, respectively, until September 1995 provided the Bank's ratio of classified assets to total risk based capital did not exceed 75%. The most recent notification from the regulators categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. 76

Included in the Law is a provision eliminating a Section of the Internal Revenue Code which allowed thrift institutions to utilize a preferential loss reserve methodology for determining the allowable bad debt deduction for tax purposes. In addition, the Law requires thrifts to recapture certain bad debt reserves accumulated after 1987. As of July 1, 1996, the Bank was no longer permitted to utilize the reserve methodology for determining the allowable bad debt deduction for tax purposes and will be required to recapture all of the Bank's accumulated tax bad debt reserves. The recapture of the tax bad debt reserves will be taken into income ratably over the next six years. However, special provisions of the Law allows the Bank to defer the recapture period for up to two years. At December 31, 1996, the Bank's tax bad debt reserves are approximately $11.9 million. It is expected the Bank will be able to meet the requirements for deferral of the recapture period for the next two years and, therefore, approximately $2.0 million will be taken into taxable income annually beginning January 1, 1998.

BEAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-CONTINUED (In thousands) NOTE L--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Corporation's financial statements do not reflect various commitments to extend credit or commitments to purchase loans which arise in the normal course of business and which involve elements of credit risk, interest rate risk or liquidity risk. At December 31, 1996, there were commitments to purchase loans of $1,649. Unfunded commitments to extend credit were $50,948. Commitments to purchase loans are agreements to purchase certain loans at a specified percentage of the outstanding principal balance as long as all conditions established in the contract are met. Commitments do not have a fixed expiration date. Since the conditions in the contract may not be met for all loans covered by the commitments, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Collateral on the loans consists primarily of single family residences. 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 by the customer. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being funded, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation upon extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and liens on real estate. In September 1994, a borrower filed suit against the Corporation, its directors and certain officers arising out of a foreclosure by the Corporation. The suit alleges intentional infliction of emotional distress, breach of duty to deal honestly and in good faith, and fraud. The plaintiff seeks $20 and $40 million in compensatory and punitive damages, respectively. The Corporation has answered the suit, denying all material allegations therein and intends to vigorously defend such allegations. In the opinion of management, the suit will not have a material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Corporation is also a defendant in various matters in litigation which have arisen in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 80

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Certain Transactions The Bank has a policy of granting loans to eligible directors, officers, employees and members of their immediate families for the financing of their personal residence and for consumer purposes. Loans to such individuals for commercial purposes are limited to the lesser of $100,000, or 15% of the Bank's net worth. All such loans to directors, officers, employees and their immediate families are made in the ordinary course of business and on the same terms, including collateral and interest rates, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unaffiliated parties and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. All transactions with related parties are also approved by at least a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors. All loans by the Bank to its directors and executive officers are subject to federal regulations restricting loan and other transactions with affiliated persons of the Bank. Federal regulations currently require that all loans to directors and executive officers be made on terms and conditions comparable to those for similar transactions with non-affiliates. At December 31, 1996, there were no loans outstanding to any director, executive officer, member of their immediate families or business interest of such individuals, except for one loan to a member of Mr. Beal's family. This loan was made on terms and conditions comparable to those for similar transactions with non-affiliates. From time to time Mr. Beal has made loans to the Bank and its subsidiaries He has also provided his personal guarantee on loans made to the Bank or its subsidiaries by unaffiliated lenders. All of these transactions were on the same terms as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unaffiliated parties except that the loans made by Mr. Beal to the Bank's subsidiaries were interest-free. The amount of interest if a market rate were to have been used, would not be material to the financial condition or results of operations of the Bank. Mr. Beal currently rents office space from the Bank, for which he pays $500 per month. The Board of Directors believes that the rental rate charged is equivalent to the rental rate which would be charged to an unaffiliated party for the space. In July 1995, BMI assigned its interest in 48 acres of timber land located in Estonia to D. Andrew Beal for a price equal to $25,178. In June 1996, in connection with the closure of its Estonia office, Mr. Beal purchased for $30,000, an amount equal to the highest independent offer received, furniture with a book value of $98,536. In connection with the Company's indirect acquisition of the Bank's outstanding capital stock, the Company assumed the obligation to repay a $2.5 million debt obligation of D. Andrew Beal. The proceeds from this borrowing were used for the initial capitalization of the Bank. This obligation is secured in full by a certificate of deposit owned by D. Andrew Beal. The debt had a balance of $1.8 million at December 31, 1996 and was repaid in full subsequent to December 31, 1996. 94
