Form 10-K Annual Report
For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2002
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
(a) General Development of Business
Brunswick Bancorp ("BB", "Registrant" or "Company") is a bank holding company
registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Bank
Holding Company Act"). BB was organized under the laws of New Jersey in 1984 by
Brunswick Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank") for the purpose of creating a
holding company for the Bank. Effective January 16, 1986, BB acquired all the
outstanding shares of the Bank.
The Bank was incorporated as a state-chartered New Jersey bank in 1970 under the
name of Bank of Manalapan. That entity merged with New Brunswick Trust Company
in 1977, forming Brunswick Bank and Trust Company.
The Bank in 2001 created a wholly owned subsidiary to manage the Bank's
investment portfolio. BTB Investment Corp. Inc. was formed and now manages and
operates the Bank's investments.
The Bank maintains its executive office and five branches in Monmouth and
Middlesex Counties, New Jersey.
Regulatory Matters
There are a variety of statutory and regulatory restrictions governing BB, the
Bank, and the relations between BB and its subsidiaries. Proposals to change the
laws and regulations governing the banking industry are frequently introduced in
Congress, in the state legislatures and before the various bank regulatory
agencies. The likelihood and timing of any such changes and the impact such
changes might have on BB cannot be determined at this time.
The policy of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System provides that
BB is expected to act as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary bank
and to commit resources to support such subsidiary bank in circumstances in
which it might not do so absent of such policy.
The Banking Affiliates Act of 1982, as amended, severely restricts loans and
extensions of credit by Brunswick Bank and Trust Company to BB and its
affiliates (except affiliates that are banks). All such loans must be secured by
collateral having a market value ranging from 100% to 130% of the loan,
depending upon the type of collateral. Furthermore, the aggregate of all loans
from the Bank to BB and its affiliate may not exceed 20% of the Bank's capital
stock and surplus and, singly, to BB or any affiliates may not exceed 10% of the
Bank's capital stock and surplus. Similarly, the Banking Affiliates Act of 1982
also restricts the Bank in the purchase of securities issued by the acceptance
as loan collateral of securities issued by the purchase of assets from, and the
issuance of a guarantee of standby letter-of-credit on behalf of BB or any of
its affiliates.
CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
Bank holding companies must comply with the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based
capital guidelines. Under the guidelines, risk weighted assets are calculated by
assigning assets and certain off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories.
The level of risk associated with each category then weights the total dollar
value of each category. A minimum total qualifying capital to risk-based assets
1
ratio (Total Capital ratio) of 8.00% is required. At least 4% of an
institution's qualifying capital must consist of Tier 1 capital, and the rest
may consist of Tier 2 capital. Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common
stockholders' equity minus goodwill.
Tier 2 capital consists of an institution's allowances for possible loan losses,
subject to limitation, hybrid capital instruments and certain subordinated debt.
The allowance for possible loan losses, which may be considered Tier 2 capital,
is limited to 1.25% of risk-based assets. As of December 31, 2002, the Company's
Total Capital ratio was 43.64% consisting of a Tier 1 ratio of 42.41% and Tier 2
ratio of 1.23%. Such ratios exceed the current regulatory requirements.
In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has promulgated a leverage capital
standard, with which bank holding companies must comply. Bank holding companies
must maintain a minimum Tier 1 capital to total assets ratio of 3%. However,
institutions, which are not among the most highly rated by federal regulators,
must maintain a ratio of 100-200 basis points above the 3% minimum. As of
December 31, 2002, the consolidated Company, consisting of BB, the Bank and the
BB subsidiaries, had a leverage capital ratio of 22.21%.
The FDIC also imposes risk based and leverage capital guidelines on the Bank.
These guidelines and the ratios to be met are substantially similar to those
imposed by the Federal Reserve Board. If a bank does not satisfy the FDIC's
capital requirements, it will be deemed to be operated in an unsafe and unsound
manner and will be subject to regulatory action. The Bank met all the FDIC
capital requirements at December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2002, the Bank had
a risk weighted capital ratio of 17.93% and a leverage capital ratio of 22.21%.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA")
required each federal banking agency to revise its risk-based capital standards
to ensure that those standards take adequate account of interest rate risk,
concentration of credit risk and the risks of non-traditional activities. In
addition, pursuant to FDICIA, each federal banking agency has promulgated
regulations, specifying the levels at which a financial institution would be
considered "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized,"
"significantly undercapitalized," or "critically undercapitalized" and requiring
the agency to take certain mandatory and discretionary supervisory actions based
on the capital level of the institution.
The FDIC's regulations implementing these provisions of FDICIA provide that an
institution will be classified as "well capitalized" if it (i) has a risk-based
capital ratio of at least 10.0 percent, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of at least 6.0 percent, (iii) has a Tier 1 ratio of at least 5.0 percent,
and (iv) meets certain requirements. An institution will be classified as
"adequately capitalized" if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of at
least 8.0 percent (ii) has a Tier 1 ratio of at least 4.6 percent, (iii) has a
Tier 1 leverage ratio (a) at least 4.0 percent of (b) at least 3.0 percent if
the institution was rated I in its most recent examination, and (iv) does not
meet the definition of "well capitalized." An institution will be classified as
"undercapitalized" if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than
8.0 percent (ii) has a Tier 1 risk based capital of less than 4.0 percent, or
(iii) has a Tier 1 leverage ratio of (a) less than 4.0 percent or (b) less than
3.0 percent is the institution was rated 1 in its most recent examination. An
institution will be classified as "significantly undercapitalized" if it (i) has
a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0 percent, (ii) has a Tier 1
risk-based capital ratio of less than 3.0 percent, (iii) has a Tier 1 leverage
ratio of less than 3.0 percent. An institution will be classified as "critically
undercapitalized" if it has a tangible equity to total assets ratio that is
equal to or less than 2.0 percent. An insured depository institution may be
deemed to be in a lower capitalization category if it receives an unsatisfactory
examination.
HOLDING COMPANY SUPERVISION
Generally, the Bank Holding Company Act limits the business of a bank holding
company and its affiliates to banking, managing or controlling banks, and
furnishing or performing services for banks controlled by the holding company.
The major exception to this rule is that a bank holding company
2
directly or through a subsidiary may engage in non-banking activities which the
Federal Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking of
managing or controlling banks so as to be a proper incident thereto. The Federal
Reserve Board under its Regulation "Y" has restricted such activities to things
such as lease financing, mortgage banking, investment advice, certain data
processing services and more recently, discount brokerage services. BB is not
currently conducting these activities.
Under the Bank Holding Company Act, BB may not acquire directly or indirectly
more than 5 percent of the voting shares of, or substantially all of the assets
of, any bank without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. Under
current law, a New Jersey based bank holding company, like BB, is permitted to
acquire banks located in New Jersey and in certain other states if the states
had enacted laws specifically to permit acquisitions of banks by out-of-state
bank holding companies having the largest portion of their deposits in New
Jersey. Satisfactory capital ratios and Community Reinvestment Act ratings are
generally prerequisites to obtaining federal regulatory approval to make
acquisitions. Acquisitions through the Bank require approval of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC). Statewide branching is permitted in
New Jersey. The Holding Company Act does not place territorial restrictions on
the activities on non-banking subsidiaries of bank holding companies.
The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Act of 1994 (the "Interstate
Banking and Branching Act") enables bank holding companies to acquire banks in
states other than its home state regardless of applicable state law. The
Interstate Banking and Branching Act also authorize banks to merge across state
lines, thereby creating interstate branches. Under such legislation, each state
had the opportunity either to "opt-out" of this provision, thereby prohibiting
interest branching in such states. Furthermore, a state may "opt-in" with
respect to de novo branching, thereby permitting a bank to open new branches in
a state in which the bank does not already have a branch. Without de novo
branching, an out-of-state bank can enter the state only by acquiring an
existing bank. The vast majority of states have allowed inter-state banking by
merger but has not authorized de novo branching.
New Jersey has enacted legislation to opt-in with respect to earlier interstate
banking and branching and the entry into New Jersey of foreign country banks.
New Jersey did not authorize de novo branching into the state.
GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY FINANCIAL MODERNIZATION ACT OF 1999
On November 12, 1999, the President signed the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial
Modernization Act of 1999 into law - effective March 13, 2000. The
Modernization Act:
allows bank holding companies meeting management, capital and Community
Reinvestment Act standards to engage in a substantially broader range
of non-banking activities than currently is permissible, including
insurance underwriting and making merchant banking investments in
commercial and financial companies; if a bank holding company elects to
become a financial holding company, it files a certification, effective
in 30 days, and thereafter may engage in certain financial activities
without further approvals;
allows insurers and other financial services companies to acquire
banks;
removes various restrictions that apply to bank holding company
ownership of securities firms and mutual fund advisory companies; and
establishes the overall regulatory structure applicable to bank
companies that also engage in insurance and securities operations.
3
The Modernization Act also modifies other current financial laws, including
laws related to financial privacy and community reinvestment.
(b) Industry Segment
The Registrant has one industry segment: commercial banking.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
Brunswick Bancorp exists primarily to hold the stock of its active subsidiary,
Brunswick Bank & Trust. BB also owns 100% of the common stock of Brunscor
Realty, a corporation that has been inactive, but in January 2002 has been
activated and owns one of the bank's parking lot as a rental property. As a
secondary function, BB conducts commercial lending activities.
BB is a legal entity separate from the Bank. The Bank is BB's principal asset.
Dividends from the Bank are BB's primary source of income. As explained under
Item 5, legal and regulatory limitations are imposed on the amount of
dividends that may be paid by the Bank to BB.
The Bank maintains its executive office in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The Bank
operates out of its executive office and five branch offices in Monmouth and
Middlesex Counties.
At December 31, 2002, BB and its subsidiary Bank had deposits of $93,321,025
total loans of $58,519,930 and total assets of $122,706,834. The Bank in the
year 2000 to stay competitive, offered a new banking service to its new and
established customers, Internet Banking. The Bank is a full service commercial
bank and offers the services generally performed by commercial banks of
similar size and character. Such services include: checking, savings and time
deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, secured and unsecured personal
loans, commercial loans, and residential and commercial real estate loans. The
Bank also provides trust services. BB and its subsidiary Bank had the
equivalent of 51 full-time employees as of December 31, 2002.
The primary emphasis of the Company's lending activities is in the commercial
lending area. As of December 31, 2002, 52.76% of the Bank's loan portfolio
consists of commercial loans, 3.12% are construction first mortgage loans,
22.89% are commercial first mortgage loans, 20.08% are residential loans, and
1.15% are installment loans. The composition of the loan portfolio represents
a shift from the year 2001 to the extent that commercial loans increased from
45.47% in 2001 to 52.76% in 2002. Commercial first mortgage loans declined
from 21.30% in 2001 to 20.08% in 2002. The Company's lending base is generally
in the commercial area, concentrating both in commercial first mortgage loans
and commercial loans secured by certificates of deposit, equity securities,
and other forms of collateral. Commercial loans secured by certificates of
deposit provide the lowest risk to the Company as the collateral is under full
control of the Company and faces no risk of deterioration. First mortgage
loans and commercial loans secured by real estate provide security with risk
tied to the real estate market fluctuations. As the Company lends in a
relatively compact geographical area, management is better able to measure the
risk of real estate market deterioration and risk of asset deterioration than
it would be if it had to assess real estate conditions in numerous, disparate
geographical area. However, the concentration of the Company's real estate
collateral in a compact geographical area can subject the Company to greater
fluctuations in delinquencies if local market conditions vary from those in a
broader area. Due to the uncertainty in both the local and state real estate
markets, the Company maintains liquid investments in Federal funds sold with
short-term maturity dates.
There are numerous commercial banks throughout New Jersey, many of which have
offices in Monmouth and Middlesex Counties, New Jersey. In common with the
entire banking industry, the Bank experiences strong competition for banking
business in its market area. The Bank competes both for deposits and loans
with other national and state banks, mutual savings banks, finance companies,
credit
4
unions and other financial institutions. The Bank is limited, in making
commercial loans in an amount not in excess of fifteen percent of its capital
in most circumstances. The Bank has, on occasion, arranged for participation
by other institutions when it has made larger loans. Additionally, BB
participates in certain loans with the Bank as permitted by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York.
The Company does not rely on any one customer for an amount in excess of 10%
of income.
(d) Financial information about foreign and domestic operations
and export sales.
The Company operates only in New Jersey. No income is derived from foreign
persons or entities.

Payments of dividends by Brunswick Bank and Trust Company to BB are
restricted. Under the New Jersey Banking Act of 1948, as amended, the Bank may
pay dividends only out of retained earnings, and out of surplus to the extent
that surplus exceeds fifty percent of stated capital. Under the Financial
Institutions Supervisory Act, the FDIC has the authority to prohibit a
state-chartered bank from engaging in conduct that, in the FDIC's opinion,
constitutes an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Under certain
circumstances, the FDIC could claim that the payment of a dividend or other
distribution by a bank to its sole shareholder constitutes an unsafe or
unsound practice. As of December 31, 2002, approximately $11 million is
currently available, without restriction, for the Bank to pay BB in dividends.
A Federal Reserve Board capital requirement of 8.0% would still be maintained
in the event of said dividend. BB issued 20% aggregate stock dividends in 1999
and a 10% stock dividend in 2002, cash was paid in lieu of fractional shares.
No dividends were paid in the years 2001, 2000 and 1998. The Board of
Directors is considering a dividend in 2003, but has not yet determined if
cash dividends will be reinstituted.
STOCK SPLIT
The Board of Directors declared two shares for one share stock split payable
on January 14, 2000 to stockholders of record on December 31, 1999. The stock
split resulted in the Company issuing 902,266 shares. These financial
statements give retroactive effect to the stock split.
All share and per share information in this report gives effect the stock
split. Earnings per share have been restated to reflect the stock split
declared.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following financial review of Brunswick Bancorp (the "Company") is
presented on a consolidated basis and is intended to provide a comparison of
the financial performance of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Brunswick Bank & Trust Company (the "Bank") for the years ended December 31,
2002, 2001 and 2000. The information presented below should be read in
conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes appearing elsewhere in this report. All share and per share
data has been restated to reflect the two for one stock split declared on
December 14, 1999 paid on January 14, 2000 and the five shares for four shares
stock split paid on February 11, 1999 and on March 21, 2002 a 10% stock
dividend paid on May 15, 2002.
Overview:
The Company's 2002 net income was $1,943,990, which was $118,708, or 6.5%,
greater than the year before 2001 of $1,825,282. The net income for 2001 was
$198,352 greater than the year before 2000, which was $1,626,930. Net income
per share was $.96, $.91 and $.84, respectively in 2002, 2001 and 2000.
8
The increase in net income recorded in 2002 is due to the net interest income
of $115,000, a net loan loss recovery increase of $88,000 and increase in
other income of $ 23,000. Finally other expenses were down $54,000.
The increase in net income recorded in 2001 is due to the increase in net
interest income by $282,000 and increase in net loan loss recovery of
$382,000. This was partially offset by a decrease in other income of $141,000,
which was mostly due to a decrease in credit card service fees of $120,000.
Income was also affected by an increase in other expenses of $ 377,000. The
increase in other expenses was due primarily to an increase in salaries and
benefits of $258,000 and occupancy expenses of $ 66,000.
Return on assets for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 was
1.64%, 1.61% and 1.45%, respectively while the return on beginning of the year
equity recorded during the same periods amounted to 7.41%, 7.50 % and 7.18%.
The Company intends to continue to service small businesses and individuals in
its targeted geographical area as a local commercial bank. The Company will
consider future expansion into additional branches, geographic areas or a
possible acquisition if the opportunity arises. As of December 31, 2002, the

Income Statement Analysis, 2002 vs. 2001
For the year 2002, income before income taxes increased from 2001 by $279,000.
This increase occurred primarily because of an increase in net interest
income, which was higher due to a substantial decrease in interest rates on
deposits and an increase in loan volume.
Interest income decreased by $632,000 and interest expense decreased by
$747,000 which resulted in an $115,000 overall increase in net interest
income. The following table illustrates how increase in loan volume and
interest rates affected net interest income.
Interest Income:
Effect of increased volume $ 543,000
Effect of decreased interest rates (1,175,000)
Interest expense:
Effect of decreased volume 11,000
Effect of decreased interest rates 736,000
-----------
Increase in net interest income $ 115,000
===========
Recovery of loans offset the provision for loan losses in the year 2002 by a
net amount of $212,000, and other income increased by $22,000. Finally other
expenses were down $54,000.
The decrease in other expenses was primarily due to a decrease in
administrative and staff salaries and benefit costs.
9
Income Statement Analysis, 2001 vs. 2000
For the year 2001 income before income taxes increased from 2000 by $147,000.
This increase occurred mainly because of an increase in net interest income,
which was higher due to a substantial decrease in interest rates on deposits
and an increase in loan volume.
Interest income decreased by $257,000 and interest expense decreased by
$539,000 which resulted in a $282,000 overall increase in net interest income.
The following table illustrates how increase in loan volume and interest rates
affected net interest income.
Interest income:
Effect of increased volume $ 453,000
Effect of decreased interest rates (710,000)
Interest expense:
Effect of decreased volume 54,000
Effect of decreased interest rates 485,000
---------
Increase in net interest income $ 282,000
=========
Recovery of loans offset the provision for loan losses in the year 2001 by a net
amount of $124,000.This was offset by a reduction in other income of $141,000.
Finally other expenses increased by $376,000.
The increase in other expenses was primarily due to an increase in
administrative and staff salaries and benefit costs.
In January 2001, management decided to no longer be in the credit card business.
With the phase out of this business in the past year, credit card service fee
income was only $85,000 compared with the prior year fees of $199,000. The drop
of income of $114,000 was the primary reason for the reduction in other service
charge and fee income for 2001 compared to 2000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Balance Sheet Analysis
The most notable change in the Company's Balance Sheet at December 31, 2002 is
an increase in total assets of $13,703,000 compared to the prior year ending
December 31, 2001. This increase was primarily due to an increase in deposits of
$11,694,000.
Securities decreased by $6,994,000 and loans increased by $2,429,000; these
changes along with the above-mentioned increase in deposits resulted in a
$19,000,000 increase in federal funds sold.
For additional details on securities, loans and premises and equipment, refer to
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
With respect to the liability side of the balance sheet as mentioned above total
deposits increased by $11,694,000 for the year ending December 31, 2002 compared
to the prior year ending December 31, 2001.
Savings and NOW deposits increased by $8,867,000, demand deposits increased
$3,813,000 and time deposits deceased by $986,000, resulting in an increase in
total deposits of $11,694,000.
Stockholders' equity, increased by $2,043,000 with the addition of 2002 net
income of $1,944,000 and the amortization of deferred stock compensation of
$105,000, less additional treasury stock purchase of $5,000 and a small stock
dividend in lieu of fractional shares issued on the stock dividend in 2002 for
$1,000.
Liquidity
The liquidity of the Company is measured by how well it can meet the financial
needs of its depositors and borrowers and provide a cushion against
unforeseeable and unforeseen liquidity needs. Sources of liquidity are provided
primarily by the maturity of assets and by the acquisition of additional
deposits. Secondarily, liquidity may be provided by the sales of assets and by
other borrowings.
10
The Company's asset liquidity consists of cash in other banks, federal funds
sold, and investment securities and loans maturing in one year or less. At
December 31, 2002, cash and due from banks totaled $8.6 million; federal funds
totaled $25 million. Investment securities and loans maturing within one year
totaled $5.1 million and $14.9 million, respectively.
In the past three years, the Company has continually derived positive cash flows
from its operating activities. Specifically, cash provided by operating
activities totaled approximately $2.1 million in 2002, $1.9 million in 2001 and
$1.1 million in 2000. In 2002, investing activities provided $4.8 million
primarily, because maturities of investment securities was greater then the
reinvestment in securities by $7.0 million, offset by increase in loans
receivable of $2.2 million. Financing activities provided cash of approximately
$11.6 million due to the increases in non-interest bearing deposits of $3.8
million and interest bearing deposits of $7.9 million.
In light of the past cash flows provided from operating, financing, and
investing activities, management believes it may continue to meet both short and
long-term liquidity needs.
Due to the capital structure of BB and the Bank, capital management, the process
of providing equity and debt for current and future financial positioning, is
closely aligned with liquidity management. As the Company currently has no
long-term debt and management does not contemplate undertaking such debt in the
future, all financial positioning is done through liquid funds.

Rollover Policy
The company's overall practice in this area is to limit the rollover of loans to
any of it customers. Occasionally, borrowers to whom credit has been extended
experience unanticipated charges in cash flow or other circumstances that
precipitate a decision to roll over their loan. When this is done, it is based
upon the continued favorable credit position of the borrower and does not
indicate a problem loan.
Risk Elements in Loan Portfolio
Commercial and installment loans are placed on a non-accrual status when a
default of principal or interest has existed for a period of 90 days and when a
return to current status is not imminent. Real estate loans are placed on
non-accrual status when a default of principal or interest has existed for 90
days or more. Subsequent to the change in classification to non-accrual,
management assesses the loan for market value of collateral, credit position of
the debtor and potential operation of any property involved. Foreclosure
proceedings are instituted, as applicable, at that time.
Construction loans are first mortgage loans in all cases; delinquency,
non-accrual, and foreclosure proceedings are handled in the same manner as other
loans secured by real estate. Once a loan is placed on non-accrual, interest
previously accrued and uncollected is reversed and charged against current
earnings. Subsequent interest income would be recognized on these loans only to
the extent collections exceed principal outstanding.
The following table sets forth information on non-accrual, past due (other than
non-accrual), and other real estate owned (there were no restructured loans) for
the periods indicated (in thousands):
December 31,

Percentage of non-performing loans to gross

16
If the above non-accrual loans at December 31, 2002 had been current, interest
income for 2002 would have been approximately $31,768 greater than that
recorded. Delinquency rates at December 31, 2002 primarily were lower than the
past four years. The delinquency rate was lower in 2002 due to the substantial
reduction in non-accrual loans.
Except for loans included in the above table there were no loans at December 31,
2002 where the known credit problems of a borrower caused the Bank to have
serious doubts as to the ability of such borrower to comply with the then
present loan repayment terms and which would result in such loan being included
as a non-accrual, past due, or restructured loan at some future date. The Bank
has not made loans to borrowers outside the United States. As of December 31,
2002, the total loan portfolio was approximately $59 million. As of the same
date, the commercial loan portfolio totaled approximately $31.3 million; $1.4
million of these commercial loans were collateralized by the stock of a publicly
traded company, the market value of the stock collateralizing these loans
totaled approximately $2.5 million as of December 31, 2002. Other than that
concentration, there were no other concentrations exceeding ten percent of total
loans. A concentration is defined as amounts loaned to a multiple number of
borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause them to be similarly
affected by changes in economic or other conditions.

Through management assessment each accounting period, the allowance for credit
losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb probable losses.
Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based upon reviews of
individual credits, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, the
risk characteristics of various categories of loans and other pertinent factors.
Credits deemed uncollectible are charged to the allowance. Provisions for credit
losses and recoveries on loans previously charged off are added to the
allowance.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
BRUNSWICK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
I have audited the accompanying consolidated Balance Sheets of Brunswick Bancorp
and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the related consolidated
statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of
the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2002. These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Bancorp's management. My
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on my audits.
I conducted my audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that I plan and perform
the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. I
believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Brunswick Bancorp
and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

BRUNSWICK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Brunswick Bancorp (the Company) is a bank holding company whose principal
activity is the ownership and management of its wholly owned subsidiaries
Brunswick Bank & Trust Company (the Bank) and Brunscor Realty, Inc. The Bank
also has a wholly owned investment subsidiary BTB Investment Corp. Inc. The Bank
generates commercial, mortgage and consumer loans and receives deposits from
customers located primarily in Central New Jersey with primary emphasis on
Middlesex and Monmouth Counties; services are provided at six locations. The
Bank operates under a state bank charter and provides full banking services. As
a state bank, the Bank is subject to regulation by the New Jersey Department of
Banking and Insurance and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brunswick Bancorp
and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Brunswick Bank & Trust Company, BTB
Investment Corp. Inc. and Brunscor Realty Inc. after elimination of all material
inter-company transactions and balances.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Securities
Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Bank has the
positive intent and ability to hold securities to maturity. Securities
held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. The amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts are recognized in interest income using methods
approximating the interest method over the period of maturity. The investment
portfolio of the Bank is held in the operating subsidiary BTB Investment Corp.
Inc.
Loans
Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan
losses and net deferred loan fees and unearned discounts.
The accrual of interest on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the
time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in
process of collection. Installment and other personal loans are typically
charged off no later than 180 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on
nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or
interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual
or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans
is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost recovery method, until qualifying for
return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal
and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments
are reasonably assured.

The Bank applies the provisions of SFAS No. 114,"Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan," and SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures," in it's evaluation of the loan
portfolio. SFAS 114 requires that certain impaired loans be measured based on
present value of expected future cash flows, net of disposal costs, discounted
at the loan's original effective interest rate. As a practical matter,
impairment may be measured based on the loan's observable market price or the
fair value of the collateral, net of disposal costs, if the loan is collateral
dependent. When the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded
investment in the loan, the impairment is recorded through a valuation
allowance.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level, which, in management's
judgment, is adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
The amount of the allowance is based on management's evaluation of the
collectibility of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the portfolio,
credit concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific impaired
loans, economic conditions and other risks inherent in the portfolio. Allowances
for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral values or the
present value of estimated cash flows. Although management uses available
information to recognize losses on loans, because of uncertainties associated
with local economic conditions, collateral values and future cash flows on
impaired loans, it is reasonable that a material change could occur in the
allowance for loan losses in the near term. However, the amount of the change
that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated. The allowance is increased by a
provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense and reduced by
charge-offs, net of recoveries. Changes in the allowance relating to impaired
loans are charged or credited to the provision for loan losses.
Loan Fees
Loan origination and commitment fees, as well as certain direct loan origination
costs are deferred and the net amount is amortized as an adjustment of the
related loan's yield. The Bank is generally amortizing these amounts over the
life of the related loans except for residential mortgage loans, where the
timing and amount of prepayments can be reasonably estimated. For these mortgage
loans, the net deferred fees are amortized over an estimated average life of 7.5
years. Amortization of deferred loan fees is discontinued when a loan is placed
on nonaccrual status.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Bank premises and equipment are carried at cost net of
accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line and
the declining balance methods based principally on the estimated useful lives of
the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while major
additions and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on dispositions are
included in current operations.
Other Real Estate Owned
Real estate properties acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are
initially recorded at the lower of the Bank's carrying amount or fair value less
estimated selling cost at the date of foreclosure. Any write-downs based on the
asset's fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for
loan losses. After foreclosure, these assets are carried at the lower of their
new cost basis or fair value less cost to sell. Costs of significant property
improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding property are
expensed. The portion of interest costs relating to development of real estate
is capitalized. Valuations are periodically performed by management and any
subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to operations, if necessary, to
reduce the carrying value of a property to the lower of its cost or fair value
less cost to sell.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to operations in the year incurred and totaled
$29,641, $84,323 and $84,488 in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of the transactions reported in
the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes
related primarily to differences between the basis of the allowance for loan
losses and accumulated depreciation. The deferred tax assets and liabilities
represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will
either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or
settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at income tax rates
applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are
expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for
income taxes. The Bancorp files consolidated income tax returns with its
subsidiaries.
Statements of Cash Flows
The Bancorp considers all cash amounts due from depository institutions,
interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold to be cash
equivalents for purposes of the statements of cash flows.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings
applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common share is
determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during
the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents,
consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options.
Reclassification
Certain amounts for the year ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, have been
reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
No. 141, "Business Combinations"(SFAS 141".) SFAS 141 requires the purchase
method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2002 and
eliminates the pooling-of-interests method.
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No.142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets"("SFAS 142".) SFAS 142 requires that upon adoption, amortization of
goodwill will cease and instead, the carrying value of goodwill will be
evaluated for impairment on an annual basis. Identifiable intangible assets will
continue to be amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment
upon adoption and then at least annually thereafter. SFAS 142 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS 143".) SFAS 143 requires that the fair value of a
liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The
associated asset retirement cost would be capitalized as part of the carrying
amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS 143 will be effective for the fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002.

BRUNSWICK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144".) SFAS 144 supersedes
Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" ("SFAS 121".) SFAS 144 retains the
requirements of SFAS 121 for recognizing and measuring the impairment loss of
long-lived assets to be held and used. For long-lived assets to be disposed of
by sale, SFAS 144 requires a single accounting model be used for all long-lived
assets, whether previously held and used or newly acquired. Long-lived assets to
be disposed of other than by sale would be considered held and used until
disposition. SFAS 144 also broadens the presentation of discontinued operations
in the income statement to include more disposal transactions. SFAS 144 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.
In October 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 147, "Acquisitions of Certain
Financial Institutions- an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 72 and 144 and FASB
Interpretation No. 9. ("SFAS 147".) FASB Statement No. 72, "Accounting for
Certain Acquisitions of Banking or Thrift Institutions," and FASB Interpretation
No. 9, "Applying APB Opinions No. 16 and 17 when a Savings and Loan Association
or a Similar Institution is Acquired in a Business Combination Accounted for by
the Purchase Method," provided interpretive guidance on the application of the
purchase method to acquisitions of financial institutions. Except for
transactions between two or more mutual enterprises, this Statement removes
acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of both Statement 72 and
Interpretation 9 and requires that those transactions be accounted for in
accordance with FASB Statements No. 141 "Business Combinations," and No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Thus the requirement in paragraph 5 of
Statement 72 to recognize (and subsequently amortize) any excess of the fair
value of liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and identifiable
intangible assets acquired as an unidentifiable intangible asset no longer
applies to acquisitions within the scope of this Statement. In addition, this
Statement amends FASB Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," to include in its scope long-term
customer-relationship intangible assets of financial institutions such as
depositor- and borrower-relationship intangible assets and credit cardholder
intangible assets. Consequently, those intangible assets are subject to the same
undiscounted cash flow recoverability test and impairment loss recognition and
measurement provisions that Statement 144 requires for other long-lived assets
that are held and used. SFAS 147 is effective beginning October 1, 2002.
In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123"
(SFAS 148.) SFAS 148 amends FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary
change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of
Statement 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim
financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS 148 is
effective for years ending after December 15, 2002, and is effective for interim
periods beginning after December 15, 2002.
The Bank does not believe any of these statements will have an impact on its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The Plan consists of employer contributions and voluntary employee
contributions, and an annually determined employer match of employee
contributions. Contributions under the profit sharing plan are made at the
discretion of the board of directors, and have totaled approximately 5% of gross
eligible salaries for the past five years. The Bank contributed $124,282,
$111,001 and $96,731, for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The Bank established a non-qualified deferred compensation plan covering key

the benefits are vested over a 5 year period. The amount funded for each of the
last three years was $192,000 per year.
The Bank has a Restricted Stock Award Plan, covering 100,000 shares of common
stock, whose purpose is to permit grants of shares, subject to restrictions, to
key employees of the Company as a means of retaining and rewarding them for
long-term performance and to increase their ownership in the Company. Shares
awarded under the plan entitle the shareholder to all rights of common stock
ownership except that the shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged,
exchanged or otherwise disposed of during the restriction period. The restiction
period is determined by a committee that is appointed by the Board of Directors
and the period may not exceed ten years. During the years ended December 31,
2001 and 2000, 40,000 shares and 60,000 shares respectively, were granted with
restriction periods of ten years. The shares do not vest over time; all
restrictions lapse at the end of this period. The shares were recorded at the

NOTE 11- STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company adopted on April 26, 2000 a new stock option plan for officers, key
employees and Directors that provides for nonqualified and incentive options.
The Board of Directors determines the option price at the date of grant. The
options generally expire five years from the date of grant and are exercisable
over the period stated in each option.
In April 2000 the Company granted stock options for 191,500 shares at an
exercise price of $10.00 per share, and as of December 31, 2002, 171,250 shares
were available to be exercised; as of that time no options were exercised. The
Stock options expire in 5 years from the date they are granted and vest over
service periods that range from one to five years. The fair value of option
granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes Model. The
following assumptions were made in estimating fair value:

of business. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes that
the liabilities, if any, arising from such litigation and claims will not be
material to the consolidated financial statements.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as no
violation of any condition established in the contract exists. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on Managements'
credit evaluation. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable,
inventory, property and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of
credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and
may require payment of a fee. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of
credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to
customers. The Bank's policy for obtaining collateral, and the nature of such
collateral, is essentially the same as that involved in making commitments to
extend credit.
The Bank has not been required to perform on any financial guarantees during the
past two years. The Bank has not incurred any losses on its commitments in
either 2002 or 2001.
The Bank entered into an agreement in September 1996 to purchase a parcel of
land in Monroe Township, New Jersey, for the purpose of constructing an
additional branch office. As of the date of

these financial statements, all regulatory and zoning approvals have been
obtained. The Bank has begun engineering and pre-construction phases of the
building.
The Bank leases the Metroplex Branch, Aaron Road Branch and Livingston Avenue
Branch and corporate office facility under operating lease arrangements expiring
at various times through the year 2024.
Minimum annual rental commitments under non-cancelable leases are as follows at

NOTE 15 - CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK
Cash Concentrations: The Bank maintains cash balances at several correspondent
banks. The aggregate cash balances represent federal funds and demand deposits.
The cash balances are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up
to $100,000. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Bank had approximately
$31,356,000 and $13,177,000, respectively, in excess of FDIC limits.
Loan Concentrations: All of the Company's loans and loan commitments have been
granted to customers in the Bank's market area. The majority of such customers
are depositors of the Bank. Of a total commercial loan portfolio of $31,362,179
and $25,902,467 as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, approximately
$1,429,812 and $1,504,849, respectively, of those loans are collateralized by
stock in one publicly traded company. The market value of stock collateralizing
those loans totals approximately $2,499,381 and $2,717,634, as of December 31,
2002 and 2001, respectively. The distribution of commitments to extend credit
approximates the distribution of loans outstanding (Note 4.) Commercial and
standby letters of credit were granted primarily to commercial borrowers. The
Company, as a matter of policy, requires collateral on all real estate exposures
and generally requires loans to value ratios of no greater than 75%.
Interest-Rate Risk: The Bank is principally engaged in the business of
attracting deposits from the general public and using these deposits to make
loans secured by real estate and commercial loans, and to a lesser extent,
consumer loans and to purchase investment securities. The potential of
interest-rate risk exists as a result of the shorter duration of the Bank's
interest-sensitive liabilities compared to the generally longer duration of
interest-sensitive assets.

NOTE 17 - REGULATORY MATTERS
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
its primary federal regulator, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC.)
Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements can initiate certain
mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators, that if
undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank and the consolidated
financial statements. Under the regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific
capital guidelines involving quantitative measure 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 under the
prompt corrective action guidelines 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 of: total risk-based
capital and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets (as defined in the
regulations,) and of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets (as defined.)
Management believes, as of December 31, 2002, that the Bank meets all the
capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
