TEXAS UNITED BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Texas United Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries Texas United Nevada, Inc. ("TUNI"), State Bank (the "Bank"), Third
Coast Wealth Advisors, Inc. ("Third Coast"), and TXUI Statutory Trust I (the
"Trust"). All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in the consolidated report of the Company.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q. In the
opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments,
necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position at
September 30, 2002, the Company's consolidated results of operations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, consolidated cash flows
for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, and consolidated changes
in shareholders' equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and the
year ended December 31, 2001. Interim period results are not necessarily
indicative of results of operations or cash flows for a full-year period. The
2001 year-end consolidated balance sheet and statement of changes in
shareholders' equity data were derived from audited financial statements, but do
not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles.

Certain amounts applicable to the prior periods have been reclassified
to conform to the classifications currently followed. Such reclassifications do
not affect earnings.

These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in
conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2001 appearing in the Company's Registration Statement
on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-84644).

2. BUSINESS ACQUISITION AND COMBINATION

On July 31, 2002, the Company completed the acquisition of The
Bryan-College Station Financial Holding Company and its subsidiaries
("Bryan-College Station"). In exchange for all of the issued and outstanding
stock of Bryan-College Station, the Company issued 137,703 shares of its common
stock and assumed $3.6 million in outstanding debentures. The three locations of
First Federal Savings Bank ("First Federal"), Bryan-College Station's wholly
owned subsidiary, became banking centers of State Bank. On July 31, 2002,
Bryan-College Station reported total consolidated assets of $79.8 million, total
loans of $57.8 million, and $73.9 million in deposits.

3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In October 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 147, "Acquisitions of Certain
Financial Institutions" ("SFAS 147"). SFAS 147 provides interpretive guidance on
the application of the purchase method of acquisitions of financial
institutions. Except for transactions between two or more mutual enterprises,
SFAS 147 removes acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of SFAS
72, "Accounting for Certain Acquisitions of Banking and 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". SFAS 147 requires that those
transactions be accounted in accordance with SFAS 141, "Business Combinations"
and SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other Identifiable Assets". Thus, the requirement of
SFAS 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, SFAS 147 amends
SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets"
("SFAS 144"), 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 SFAS 144
requires for other long-lived assets that are held and used. The Company will no
longer amortize approximately $400,000


6


related to unidentifiable intangible assets acquired in connection with the
Pleasanton and Texas Guaranty acquisitions. The provisions of the Statement
shall be effective for acquisitions on or after October 1, 2002. Transition
provisions for previously recognized unidentifiable intangible assets are
effective October 1, 2002, with earlier application permitted. If the
transaction that gave rise to the unidentifiable intangible asset was a business
combination, the carrying amount of that asset shall be reclassified to goodwill
as of the later of the date of acquisition or the date that SFAS 142 is applied
in its entirety, which was January 1, 2002 for the Company. Any amortization of
the unidentifiable intangible asset recorded from the date of adoption of SFAS
142 to the date of adoption of SFAS 147 shall be removed. As of September 30,
2002, the Company reclassified $3.5 million in unidentifiable intangible assets
to goodwill and reversed $300,000 in amortization expense.

4. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.
Potentially dilutive common shares are computed using the treasury stock method.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

SPECIAL CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements and financial discussion and analysis contained in the Form
10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements made pursuant
to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or
assumed future results of the Company's operations or performance. The use of
any of the words "believe," "expect", "anticipate", "estimate", "continue",
"intend", "may", "will", "should", or similar expressions, identifies these
forward-looking statements. Many possible factors or events could affect the
future financial results and performance of the Company and could cause those
financial results or performance to differ materially from those expressed in
the forward-looking statement. These possible events or factors include, without
limitation:

o deposit attrition, operating costs, customer loss and business
disruption are greater than we expect;

o competitive factors including product and pricing pressures among
financial services organizations may increase;

o the Company may have difficulty integrating the business of any future
acquisitions;

o changes in the interest rate environment reduce our interest margins;

o changes in market rates and prices may adversely impact securities,
loans, deposits, mortgage servicing rights, and other financial
instruments;

o general business and economic conditions in the markets the Company
serves change or are less favorable than it expects;

o legislative or regulatory changes adversely affect the Company's
business;

o personal or commercial bankruptcies increase;

o changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines;

o changes occur in the securities markets; and

o technology-related changes are harder to make or more expensive than
the Company anticipates.

A forward-looking statement may include a statement of the assumptions
or bases underlying the forward-looking statement. The Company believes it has
chosen the assumptions or bases in good faith and that they are reasonable.
However, the Company cautions you that assumptions or bases almost always vary
from actual results, and the differences between assumptions or bases and actual
results can be material. We will not update these statements unless the
securities laws require us to do so.

General. The Company is a bank holding company formed in June 1998 as a
result of the merger of South Central Texas Bancshares, Inc. with and into
Premier Bancshares, Inc. At the effective date of the merger, the resulting
company changed its name to Texas United Bancshares, Inc. The Company derives
substantially all of its net income from its wholly owned subsidiary State Bank.
At September 30, 2002, State Bank had seventeen full service banking centers
serving twelve counties in central and south central Texas.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 was $591,000,
a decrease of 41.5% compared with $1.1 million for the same period in 2001. The
decrease in net income was primarily due to an increase in non-interest expense,
the reduction in fair value on the mortgage servicing rights portfolio, and
provisions for loan loss. Net income for the nine months ended September 30,
2002 was $3.4 million representing an increase of 13.3% compared with $3.0
million for the same period in 2001. The increase in net income was primarily
due to increases in net interest and non-interest income, offset by higher
non-interest expense, the reduction in fair value on the mortgage servicing
rights portfolio, and provisions for loan loss. Basic and diluted EPS for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 were $0.23 and $0.22 compared with $0.42
and $0.41 for the same period in 2001. For the nine months ended September 30,
2002, basic and diluted EPS were $1.35 and $1.30 compared with $1.19 and $1.15
per share for the same period in 2001.

At September 30, 2002, total assets were $558.3 million compared with
$453.6 million at December 31, 2001. The $104.7 million or 23.1% increase in
total assets over December 31, 2001 was attributable to the $79.8 million
acquired from Bryan-College Station, and internal growth in investment
securities, loans, and other assets. The increase was partially offset by a
decrease in cash and cash equivalents. At September 30, 2002, net loans,
including loans held for sale, were $363.6 million compared with $273.2 million
at December 31, 2001. The Company acquired $57.8 million in loans in connection
with the acquisition of Bryan-College Station. Total deposits at September 30,
2002 were $442.0 million compared to $375.7 million at December 31, 2001. The
$66.3 million or 17.6% increase in deposits over December 31, 2001 is attributed
to the $73.9 million in deposits assumed in the Bryan-College Station
acquisition partially offset by a $7.6 million deposit run-off due to the
strategic lowering of rates in order to lower the cost of funds. Shareholders'
equity at September 30, 2002 was $34.5 million compared to $27.4 million at
December 31, 2001. The $7.1 million or 25.9% increase is attributed to the
Bryan-College Station acquisition, earnings retention, and improvement on the
fair market value on available-for-sale securities included in accumulated other
comprehensive income. The Company's return on average assets was 0.97% for the
nine months ended September 30, 2002, down from the 0.99% for the same period in
2001. The return on average shareholders' equity was 15.4% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2002, up from 15.0% for the same period in 2001.

Net Interest Income. For the three months ended September 30, 2002, net
interest income, before the provision for loan losses, increased by 37.2% to
$5.9 million from $4.3 million in the same period in 2001. The increase was
primarily due to the strategic lowering of the cost of funds in relation to the
decrease in rates on earning assets. This has resulted in lower rates paid for
interest-bearing liabilities that were partially offset by lower yields on
earning assets and the interest expense on subordinated debentures assumed from
Bryan-College Station. For the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001,
the net interest margins and spreads widened by 17 basis points to 4.93% from
4.76% and by 52 basis points to 4.72% from 4.20%, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, net interest income,
before the provision for loan losses, increased by 27.6% to $15.7 million
compared with $12.3 million over the same period in 2001. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the net interest margins and spreads widened
by 30 basis points to 5.02% from 4.72% and by 59 basis points to 4.74% from
4.15%, respectively. The widening of the net interest margin was a combined
result of increased volumes in investments and loan balances, and a decrease in
the cost of funds.

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 was $8.5
million compared to $7.6 million for the same period in 2001. As compared to the
three months ended September 30, 2001, the average total loan volumes for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 increased by $88.9 million or 33.5% and
the average yield on average total loan volume decreased 151 basis points to
7.84%. As compared with the three months ended September 30, 2001, average total
investment volumes for the three months ended September 30, 2002 increased by
$24.1 million or 26.8% and the average yield on average investments decreased by
61 basis points. For the three months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to
the same period in 2001, the yield on total average earning assets decreased by
123 basis points to 7.11%.

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was $23.3
million compared to $22.4 million for the same period in 2001. In a period of
decreasing interest rates, this stability was maintained through growth in
average earning assets. As compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2001,
the average total loan volumes for the nine months ended September 30, 2002
increased by $46.9 million or 18.5% and the average yield on average total loans
decreased by 136 basis points to 8.31%. As compared with the nine months ended
September 30, 2001, average total investment volumes for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 increased by $27.0 million or 31.2% and the average yield on
average investments decreased by 30 basis points. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2002, as compared to the same period in 2001, the yield on total
average earning assets decreased by 111 basis points to 7.45%.

Interest expense decreased for the three months ended September 30,
2002 by $600,000 or 18.8% to $2.6 million, compared with $3.2 million for the
same period in 2001. The decreased interest expense was the result of higher
average interest bearing deposit volumes coupled with lower interest rates paid
on those deposits. Average interest bearing deposit volumes increased by $119.1
million or 38.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the
same period in 2001. For the same periods, the average rates paid on interest
bearing deposits decreased by 175 basis points to 2.39%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, interest expense
decreased by $2.4 million or 24.0% to $7.6 million compared with $10.0 million
for the same period in 2001. The decreased interest expense was the result of
higher interest bearing deposit volumes coupled with lower interest rates paid
on those deposits. Average interest bearing deposit volumes increased by $69.2
million or 22.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the
same period in 2001. For the same periods, the average rates paid on deposits
decreased by 170 basis points or 2.71%.

Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to
income to bring the Company's allowance for loan losses to a level deemed
adequate by management to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same
periods in 2001, the provision increased by $244,000 or 95.3% to $500,000, and
increased by $838,000 or 163.7% to $1.4 million, respectively. The allowance for
loan losses at September 30, 2002 was $3.4 million, compared with $1.8 million
at December 31, 2001. During the latter part of 2001 and in 2002, management
increased the provisions made primarily due to growth in the loan portfolio and
changes in the Central Texas economy. At September 30, 2002, the ratio of loan
loss allowance to total loans was 0.92% compared with 0.64% at December 31,
2001.



13

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $2.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, an
increase of $500,000 or 29.4%. The increase is primarily attributed to an
increase in service charges and gains on the sale of investments, partially
offset by mortgage servicing rights amortization and impairment charges. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, noninterest income was $7.8
million and $5.0 million, respectively, an increase of $2.8 million or 56.0%.
The increase is primarily attributed to an increase in service charges, mortgage
servicing rights income, and gains on the sale of investments.

Mortgage servicing fees, net of amortization and impairment, were
($263,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to $141,000
for the same period in 2001. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002,
mortgage servicing fees, net of amortization and impairment, were $1.1 million
as compared to $356,000 for the same period in 2001. The Company recorded a
$306,000 impairment charge in the third quarter 2002 to reflect fair value of
the mortgage servicing rights asset. The decrease in fair value of capitalized
mortgage servicing rights is a result of the decline in the 10-year Treasury
rate in the third quarter 2002 resulting in historically low mortgage rates and
an increase in prepayments of mortgages serviced by the Company.

Noninterest Expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2002,
noninterest expense increased by $2.4 million or 54.5% to $6.8 million, compared
to the same period in 2001. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002,
noninterest expense increased by $4.4 million or 33.6% to $17.5 million,
compared to the same period in 2001. The increase in noninterest expense for
both periods was due to additional employee compensation and benefits, expenses
incurred from the Bryan-College Station acquisition, increased occupancy, data
processing and technology costs, printing and supplies, and advertising.

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the major
categories in noninterest expense:

Employee compensation and benefits expense represents 47.3% and 52.4%
of total noninterest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2002, respectively. Employee compensation and benefits expense for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 were $3.2 million and $2.2 million,
respectively, an increase of $1.0 million or 45.5%. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, employee compensation and benefits expenses was
$9.1 million and $6.9 million, respectively, an increase of $2.2 million or
31.9%. The increases for the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
2002 resulted primarily from the costs associated with the additional staff to
meet loan growth, addition of the three former First Federal banking centers,
the staffing of the trust department, and the addition of two loan production
offices. Total full-time equivalent (FTE) employees at September 30, 2002 and
2001 were 282 and 227, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2002, non-staff expenses
increased by $1.4 million or 66.7% compared with the same period in 2001. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2002, non-staff expenses



14

increased by $2.1 million or 33.9% compared with the same period in 2001. The
increased non-staff expense, both for the three and nine months periods in 2002,
was primarily due to acquisition costs of Bryan-College Station, higher
occupancy expense from the full effect of opening one banking center in 2001,
the trust department in 2002, and two loan production offices in 2002, the
upgrade of technology systems, increased advertising and printing costs, as well
as other operating systems improvements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loan Portfolio. Total loans, including loans held for sale, increased
by $92.0 million or 33.5%, from $274.9 million at December 31, 2001 to $366.9
million at September 30, 2002. The increase is primarily due to $57.8 million
acquired from Bryan-College Station coupled with an increase in real estate and
consumer loans and partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease in commercial and
industrial loans. At September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, the ratio of
total loans to total deposits was 83.0% and 73.2%, respectively. For the same
periods, total loans represented 65.5% and 60.6% of total assets, respectively.

Loans held for sale were $18.8 million at September 30, 2002, an
increase of $18.0 million compared with $817,000 at December 31, 2001. Loans
held for sale represent mortgage loans originated by the Company to be sold to
Fannie Mae. The Company retains the servicing on all loans sold to Fannie Mae
and records a mortgage servicing right.

The following table summarizes the loan portfolio of the Company by
type of loan at the dates indicated:

Nonperforming Assets. Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2002 and
December 31, 2001 were $1.3 million and $562,000, respectively. The increase of
$779,000, or 138.6%, is primarily due nonperforming loans acquired in the
Bryan-College Station acquisition and the prolonged deterioration in general
economic conditions.

The Company generally places a loan on nonaccrual status and ceases to
accrue interest when loan payment performance is deemed unsatisfactory, unless
the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection. Cash payments
received while a loan is classified as nonaccrual are recorded as a reduction of
principal as long as doubt exists as to collection.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company has several systems in place to
assist in maintaining the overall quality of its loan portfolio. The Company has
established underwriting guidelines to be followed at each of its banking
centers. The Company also monitors its delinquency levels for any negative or
adverse trends and particularly monitors credits that have a total exposure of
$100,000 or more.

The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through charges
to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. The Company utilizes a
model to determine the specific and general portions of the allowance for loan
losses. Through the loan review process, management assigns one of six loan
grades to each loan, according to payment history, collateral values and
financial condition of the borrower. Specific reserves are allocated for loans
assigned to a grade of "watch" or below, meaning that management has determined
that deterioration in a loan has occurred. The percentage of the specific
allocation for each loan is based on the risk elements attributable to that
particular loan. In addition, a general allocation is made for all loans in an
amount determined based on general economic condition, historical loan loss
experience, loan growth within a category, amount of past due loans and peer
averages. Management maintains the allowance based on the amounts determined
using the procedures set forth above.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, net loan charge-offs were
$465,000 or 0.15% of average loans outstanding compared with $761,000 or 0.29%
for the year ended December 31, 2001. At September 30, 2002 and December 31,
2001, the allowance for loan losses aggregated $3.4 million and $1.8 million, or
0.92% and 0.64% of total loans, respectively. At September 30, 2002, the
allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 254.6%
compared with 334.7% at December 31, 2001.

The following table presents for the periods indicated an analysis of
the allowance for loan losses and other related data:

Securities. At September 30, 2002, the securities portfolio totaled
$124.0 million, reflecting an increase of $14.0 million or 12.7% from $110.0
million at December 31, 2001. During the nine months ended September 30, 2002,
the Company purchased $108.5 million in investment securities. Included in this
amount, the Company originated $49.4 million in mortgage loans that were sold to
Fannie Mae in various mortgage pools and reacquired by the Company as investment
securities. Additionally, the Company sold $82.2 million of securities in an
effort to




16


reposition the portfolio for current economic conditions and to provide funding
for loan growth. The Company also received $12.3 million in maturities and
principal paydowns on investment securities.

Other Assets. At September 30, 2002, other assets totaled $10.9
million, reflecting an increase of $2.7 million or 32.9% from $8.2 million at
December 31, 2001. The increase is partially attributed to $904,000 of other
assets acquired from Bryan-College Station, a $351,000 increase in prepaid
assets, a $421,000 increase in the deferred compensation plan asset, and the
purchase of $500,000 in Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") stock.

Deposits. At September 30, 2002, total deposits were $442.0 million, an
increase of $66.3 million or 17.6% from $375.7 million at December 31, 2001. The
increase is primarily due to the $73.9 million in deposits acquired from
Bryan-College Station partially offset by a $7.6 million deposit run-off.
Non-interest-bearing deposits at September 30, 2002 increased by $8.5 million or
11.8% to $80.5 million from $72.0 million at December 31, 2001. Interest-bearing
deposits at September 30, 2002 increased by $57.8 million or 19.0% to $361.5
million from $303.7 million at December 31, 2001. The Company's ratios of
noninterest-bearing demand deposits to total deposits as of September 30, 2002
and December 31, 2001 were 18.2% and 19.2%, respectively.

Borrowings and Federal Funds Purchased. Borrowings consist of
short-term and long-term advances from the FHLB. Federal funds purchased
increased $15.2 million to $15.8 million at September 30, 2002 from $647,000 at
December 31, 2001. Borrowings increased $9.5 million to $48.7 million at
September 30, 2002 from $39.2 million at December 31, 2001. The funds were used
to acquire investment securities and to fund loans. The maturity dates for the
FHLB borrowings range from the years 2002 to 2013 and have interest rates from
2.65% to 5.91%. Additionally, the Company had three unused, unsecured lines of
credit with correspondent banks totaling $14.2 million at September 30, 2002 and
$29.4 million at December 31, 2001.

In connection with the acquisition of Bryan-College Station, the
Company assumed $3.6 million in subordinated debentures. The debentures carry an
interest rate of 11.5% and mature in March 2003.

At September 30, 2002, the Company has $1.7 million borrowed on its
$10.0 million revolving credit line with a bank. The funds were used to redeem
the outstanding shares of First Federal's Series A preferred stock and costs
associated with becoming a public reporting company.

Liquidity. Liquidity involves the Company's ability to raise funds to
support asset growth or reduce assets to meet deposit withdrawals and other
payment obligations, to maintain reserve requirements and otherwise to operate
the Company on an ongoing basis. The Company's liquidity needs are primarily met
by growth in core deposits. Although access to purchased funds from
correspondent banks is available and has been utilized on occasion to take
advantage of investment opportunities, the Company does not rely on these
external funding sources. The Company maintains investments in liquid assets
based upon management's assessment of cash needs, expected deposit flows,
objectives of its asset/liability management program, availability of federal
funds or FHLB advances, and other available liquid assets. Several options are
available to increase liquidity, including sale of investment securities,
increasing deposit marketing activities, and borrowing from the FHLB or
correspondent banks. The cash and federal funds sold position, supplemented by
amortizing investments along with payments and maturities within the loan
portfolio, have historically created an adequate liquidity position.

Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily
marketable or which will mature in the near future. At September 30, 2002, the
Company has cash and cash equivalents of $20.9 million, down from $32.7 million
at December 31, 2001. The decrease is mainly attributed to the increase in
investment securities and loan growth, and partially offset by deposit
withdrawals of $7.6 million and a reduction in federal funds sold of $11.2
million.

The Company views time deposits as a stable means of supporting loan
growth. The Company believes, based on its historical experience, that its large
time deposits have core-type characteristics. The Company continues to
anticipate that this source of funding will continue to sustain a portion of the
Company's asset growth in the future.

Capital Resources. Shareholders' equity increased from $27.4 million at
December 31, 2001 to $34.6 million at September 30, 2002, an increase of $7.2
million or 26.3%. The increase was primarily due to a net addition to undivided
profits of $3.5 million, a $1.7 million improvement in unrealized securities
gains and losses, and the issuance of $2.6 million in common stock in connection
with the acquisition of Bryan-College Station, partially offset by dividends of
$763,000.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Within 90 days prior to the
date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based
on this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the "Exchange Act")) are effective to ensure that information required to
be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to the Company's
management within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and forms.

Changes in internal controls. Subsequent to the date of the Company's most
recent evaluation, there were no significant changes in the Company's internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures, and there were no corrective actions with
regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses based on such
evaluation.
