NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Capitol Bancorp Ltd. ("Capitol") have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all information and
footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

The statements do, however, include all adjustments of a normal recurring
nature (in accordance with Rule 10-01(b)(8) of Regulation S-X) which Capitol
considers necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods.

The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2002.

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 was derived from
audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. Certain 2001 amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation.

NOTE D - SHARE EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONS

In November 2001, the boards of directors of Capitol and Sun Community
Bancorp Limited entered into a plan of share exchange. The plan of share
exchange was approved by the shareholders of both Capitol and Sun at special
meetings held in late March 2002. The share exchange was based on a fixed
exchange ratio and resulted in Capitol issuing .734 shares of its previously
unissued common stock for each common share of Sun's common stock held by
shareholders other than Capitol, effective March 31, 2002. Capitol issued
approximately 2.7 million shares of its common stock and 850,000 stock options
resulting from the share exchange, for aggregate consideration approximating
$43.2 million. This transaction has been accounted for as a purchase. Had the
transaction occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, net income would
have approximated $7.2 million ($0.66 per diluted share) and $5.1 million ($0.48
per diluted share) for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively.

Sun was previously included in Capitol's consolidated financial statements.
The carrying value of assets and liabilities of Sun closely approximated their
fair values at the date of the share exchange with Capitol. Identified
intangible assets (principally core deposit intangibles) were estimated to
approximate $2.7 million, and are being amortized over a period of approximately
five years. Additionally, goodwill of approximately $4 million was recorded in
conjunction with the share exchange and will not be amortized, but will be
reviewed at least annually for impairment (see Note E).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
CAPITOL BANCORP LTD. - CONTINUED


NOTE D - SHARE EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONS - CONTINUED

As of June 30, 2002, potential share exchange transactions were pending
regarding the minority shareholders of Indiana Community Bancorp Limited and
Sunrise Capital Corporation which, if completed, would result in Capitol issuing
approximately 450,000 additional shares of common stock and those majority-owned
subsidiaries becoming wholly-owned.

NOTE E - IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS.
Statement No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under
a prior standard of purchase accounting, eliminating the so-called
pooling-method which was used to account for some business combinations. This
standard did not have a material effect on Capitol's consolidated financial
statements.

Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged
against earnings, but instead be reviewed for impairment. Amortization of
goodwill ceased upon adoption of the Statement on January 1, 2002. This new
standard requires that goodwill be reviewed annually for impairment and,
accordingly, impairment adjustments of goodwill be charged against earnings, if
and when determined.

Capitol's previous business combinations (generally, acquisitions of
minority interests) have been accounted for using the purchase method. As of
June 30, 2002, the net carrying amount of reporting-unit goodwill approximated
$12.8 million and other intangible assets approximated $2.6 million. Upon
implementation, this new standard has not had a material effect on Capitol's
consolidated financial statements, other than the elimination of goodwill
amortization.

Statement No. 142 requires that intangible assets not subject to
amortization, such as Capitol's reporting-unit goodwill, be tested for
impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the asset might be impaired. Such potential impairment is measured
by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount within
the consolidated group.

When goodwill is reviewed for potential impairment, impairment losses must
be charged against earnings if and when determined. Substantially all of
Capitol's recorded reporting-unit goodwill relates to acquisitions of minority
interests in consolidated subsidiaries. Such acquisitions have been made at
modest premiums in relation to the underlying fair value of net assets when
acquired. Based on management's review of recorded reporting-unit goodwill at
the transition date for Statement No. 142, January 1, 2002, no impairment losses
were identified as of that date.

Paragraph 61 of Statement No. 142 requires supplemental disclosure of

longer being amortized, which is summarized below (in $1,000s except per share

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are
currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory
agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed
standards would be material to Capitol's consolidated financial statements.

Portfolio loans increased during the six-month 2002 period by approximately
$163 million. Loan growth was funded primarily by higher levels of time
deposits. The majority of portfolio loan growth occurred in commercial loans,
consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities. Portfolio
loan growth in 2002 is net of about $28 million of commercial loans sold to
other financial institutions.

The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2002 approximated $26.3 million
or 1.39% of total portfolio loans, an increase from the year-end 2001 ratio of
1.34%.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb potential losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the
balance sheet date. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance
is based on evaluation of the portfolio (including potential impairment of
individual loans and concentrations of credit), past loss experience, current
economic conditions, volume, amount and composition of the loan portfolio, loan
commitments outstanding and other factors. The allowance is increased by
provisions charged to operations and reduced by net charge-offs.

In addition to the allowance for loan losses, certain commercial loans in
Michigan and Indiana are enrolled in state-sponsored loan programs and have
additional reserves established to provide for loss protection. At June 30,
2002, total loans under these programs approximated $32 million. Reserves
related to these loans, which are represented by earmarked funds on deposit at
some of the bank subsidiaries, approximated $1.4 million and are not included in
the allowance for loan losses.

The state agency administering the Michigan program has announced plans to
terminate the program in 2002. Upon termination of the program, loans previously
enrolled in the program and related reserves would continue until the underlying
loans are repaid, but no new loans would be enrolled in the program. While this
program has complimented the lending efforts of Capitol's Michigan banks,
termination of the program is not expected to have a material adverse affect on
those banks' lending activities in the future. The termination of the program
may adversely affect the future availability of credit for those borrowers who
otherwise would have been eligible for enrollment in the program.

Impaired loans (i.e., loans for which there is a reasonable probability
that borrowers would be unable to repay all principal and interest due under the
contractual terms of the loan documents) were not material.

Nonperforming loans (i.e., loans which are 90 days or more past due and
loans on nonaccrual status) are summarized below (in thousands):

Real estate 884 787
Installment 253 119
-------- --------
Total past due loans 7,970 5,196
-------- --------

Total nonperforming loans $ 23,310 $ 17,238
======== ========

Nonperforming loans increased approximately $6 million during the six-month
period ended June 30, 2002. These loans at June 30, 2002 are in various stages
of resolution for which management believes such loans are adequately
collateralized or otherwise appropriately considered in its determination of the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

In addition to the identification of nonperforming loans involving
borrowers with payment performance difficulties (i.e., nonaccrual loans and
loans past-due 90 days or more), management utilizes an internal loan review
process to identify other potential problem loans which may warrant additional
monitoring or other attention. This loan review process is a continuous activity
which periodically updates internal loan ratings. At inception, all loans are
individually assigned a rating which grade the credits on a risk basis, based on
the type and discounted value of collateral, financial strength of the borrower
and guarantors and other factors such as nature of the borrowers' business
climate, local economic conditions and other subjective factors. The loan rating
process is fluid and subjective.

Potential problem loans include loans which are generally performing as
agreed; however, because of loan review's and/or lending staff's risk
assessment, increased monitoring is deemed appropriate. In addition, some loans
are assigned a more adverse classification, with specific performance issues or
other risk factors requiring close management and development of specific
remedial action plans.

At June 30, 2002, potential problem loans (including nonperforming loans)
approximated $83 million, or about 4% of total consolidated portfolio loans. It
is important to note that these potential problem loans do not necessarily have
significant loss exposure (nor are they necessarily deemed `impaired'), but
rather are classified by management in this manner to aid in loan administration
and risk management. Management believes such loans to be adequately considered
in its evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Management
believes, however, that current general economic conditions may result in higher
levels of future loan losses, in comparison to previous years, as evidenced by
higher loan losses in the first half of 2002.

Page 14 of 22

Other real estate owned (generally real estate acquired through foreclosure
or a deed in lieu of foreclosure and classified as a component of other assets)
approximated $2.7 million at June 30, 2002 and $3.0 million at December 31,
2001.

loans, allowance for loan losses, nonperforming loans and ratio of the allowance

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, was $3.9 million, an
increase of $1.3 million over the same period last year. Diluted earnings per
share were $.35 compared to $.33 for the prior year period. Net income for the
first half of 2002 was $7 million ($.73 per diluted share), a 40% increase from
$5 million ($.63 per diluted share) in the comparable period of 2001. The
percentage increase in net income per share was less than the percentage
increase in the amount of net income in 2002 because of the larger share base
resulting from Capitol's share exchange regarding Sun Community Bancorp which
was completed March 31, 2002.

Second quarter 2002 earnings were a new record level. This period was
benefited by strong bank performance coupled with earnings from Sun Community
Bancorp, the southwestern bank development affiliate, and its banks.

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2002 totaled $24.4 million, a
24% increase as compared to $19.7 million for the comparable period in 2001. Net
interest income for the six-month 2002 period was $47.2 million, as compared to
$38.2 million for the same period in 2001. Net interest income increased 24%
during the six-month period versus 23% in the corresponding period of 2001.
These increases are attributable to the expansion in number of banks, the banks'
growth and a stable interim 2002 interest rate environment.

Noninterest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was $3.4 million, an
increase of $935,000, or 38%, over the same period last year. On a year-to-date
basis, noninterest income totaled $6.2 million for the 2002 period, as compared
to $4.6 million in the first six months of 2001. Service charges on deposit
accounts and trust fee income both increased due to volume in the second quarter
of 2002 by 21% compared to the same period in 2001. Service charges on deposits
and trust fee income totaled $1.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for
the six-month period in 2002, as compared to $1.5 million and $1 million,
respectively, for the 2001 period. Fees from origination of non-portfolio
residential mortgage loans totaled $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2002,
and were $2.4 million for the six-month period, as compared to $789,000 and $1.4
million for the comparable periods in 2001, due to higher loan volume resulting
from lower interest rates.

The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was $2.7
million as compared to $1.7 million during the corresponding 2001 period. The
loan loss provision for the six-month period in 2002 was $4.8 million, as
compared to $3.3 million for the same period in 2001. Increases in the provision
for loan losses are principally related to loan growth. The provisions for loan
losses are based upon management's analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for
loan losses, as previously discussed.

Noninterest expense totaled $19 million for the second quarter, and $37.8
million for the six-month period in 2002, as compared to $16.1 million and $31.5
million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2001. The increase in
noninterest expense is associated with newly formed banks, growth and increases
in general operating costs. Increases in both occupancy and salary and employee
benefits mostly relate to the growth in the number of banks within the
consolidated group.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The principal funding source for asset growth and loan origination
activities is deposits. Total deposits increased $168 million for the six-month
2002 period, compared to $229 million in the corresponding period of 2001. Such
growth occurred in all deposit categories, with the majority coming from time
deposits. The banks generally do not rely on brokered deposits as a key funding
source; brokered deposits approximated $196 million as of June 30, 2002, or
about 10% of total deposits, an increase of $53 million during the interim 2002
period. Brokered deposits, as a funding source, have increased in recent periods
due to competitive environments and increased depositor usage of the Internet,
and may similarly increase in future periods.

Noninterest-bearing deposits approximated 16% of total deposits at June 30,
2002 and December 31, 2001. Levels of noninterest-bearing deposits fluctuate
based on customers' transaction activity.

Page 17 of 22

Interim 2002 deposit growth was deployed primarily into commercial loans,
consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities.

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $220 million or 10% of total assets
at June 30, 2002 as compared with $164 million or 8% of total assets at December
31, 2001. As liquidity levels vary continuously based on customer activities,
amounts of cash and cash equivalents can vary widely at any given point in time.
Management believes the banks' liquidity position at June 30, 2002 is adequate
to fund loan demand and meet depositor needs.

In addition to cash and cash equivalents, a source of long-term liquidity
is the banks' marketable investment securities. Liquidity needs have not
historically necessitated the sale of investments in order to meet funding
requirements. The banks have not engaged in active trading of their investments.
At June 30, 2002, the banks had approximately $36.3 million of investment
securities classified as available for sale which can be utilized to meet
various liquidity needs as they arise.

Some of the banks have secured lines of credit with a Federal Home Loan
Bank. Borrowings thereunder approximated $76 million and additional borrowing
capacity approximated $9.3 million at June 30, 2002. These borrowings increased
($13 million in the first half of 2002) as a lower-cost funding source versus
various rates and maturities of time deposits. At June 30, 2002, Capitol had
unused lines of credit from an unrelated financial institution aggregating $10
million.

In November 2001, the boards of directors of Capitol and Sun entered into a
plan of share exchange. The plan of share exchange was approved by the
shareholders of both Capitol and Sun at special meetings held in late March
2002. The share exchange was based on a fixed exchange ratio and resulted in
Capitol issuing .734 shares of its previously unissued common stock for each
common share of Sun's common stock held by shareholders other than Capitol,
effective March 31, 2002. Capitol issued approximately 2.7 million shares of its
common stock and 850,000 stock options resulting from the share exchange, for
aggregate consideration approximating $43.2 million. This transaction has been
accounted for as a purchase. Had the transaction occurred at the beginning of
the periods presented, net income would have approximated $7.2 million ($0.66
per diluted share) and $5.1 million ($0.48 per diluted share) for the six months
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

As of June 30, 2002, potential share exchange transactions were pending
regarding the minority shareholders of Indiana Community Bancorp Limited and
Sunrise Capital Corporation which, if completed, would result in Capitol issuing
approximately 450,000 additional shares of common stock and those majority-owned
subsidiaries becoming wholly-owned.

Capitol and its banks are subject to complex regulatory capital
requirements, which require maintaining certain minimum capital ratios. These
ratio measurements, in addition to certain other requirements, are used by
regulatory agencies to determine the level of regulatory intervention and
enforcement applied to financial institutions. Management believes Capitol and
each of its banks are in compliance with regulatory requirements and are
expected to maintain such compliance.

Page 18 of 22

Stockholders' equity, as a percentage of total assets, approximated 5.8% at
June 30, 2002, increased from the ratio of 3.9% at the beginning of the year,
primarily as a result of the previously-mentioned share exchange regarding Sun.
Total capital funds (Capitol's stockholders' equity, plus minority interests in
consolidated subsidiaries, plus guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in the
Corporation's subordinated debentures) aggregated $222.2 million or 10% of total
assets at June 30, 2002.

Capitol's operating strategy continues to be focused on the ongoing growth
and maturity of its existing banks, coupled with new bank expansion in selected
markets as opportunities arise. Accordingly, Capitol may invest in or otherwise
develop additional banks in future periods, subject to economic conditions and
other factors, although the timing of such additional banking units, if any, is
uncertain. Such future new banks and/or additions of other operating units could
be either wholly-owned, majority-owned or otherwise controlled by Capitol.

TRENDS AFFECTING OPERATIONS

One of the most significant trends which can impact the financial condition
and results of operations of financial institutions are changes in market rates
of interest.

Changes in interest rates, either up or down, have an impact on net
interest income (plus or minus), depending on the direction and timing of such
changes. At any point in time, there is an imbalance between interest
rate-sensitive assets and interest rate-sensitive liabilities. This means that
when interest rates change, the timing and magnitude of the effect of such
interest rate changes can alter the relationship between asset yields and the
cost of funds.

During 2001, the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Board
decreased interbank interest rates on numerous separate dates, for an
unprecedented decrease of 475 basis points during the year. In the first half of
2002, interest rates have remained relatively stable.

Because variable rate loans reprice more rapidly than interest-bearing
deposits, such market interest rate decreases compressed net interest margins at
Capitol's banks in 2001. In 2002, however, a more stable interest rate
environment has favorably impacted net interest margins at Capitol's banks from
interest-bearing deposits repricing at lower rates. As the Open Market Committee
continues to influence interest rates and other economic policy in 2002,
including the potential of rate increases, net interest margins may become more
compressed (having an adverse impact on earnings) as the year progresses.

Start-up banks generally incur operating losses during their early periods
of operations. Recently-formed start-up banks are expected to detract from
consolidated earnings performance and start-up banks formed in 2002 and beyond
will similarly negatively impact short-term profitability.

General economic conditions also have a significant impact on both the
results of operations and the financial condition of financial institutions.

Media reports of raising questions about the health of the domestic economy
have continued in 2002. In 2002, nonperforming loans have increased and it is
anticipated that levels of nonperforming loans and related loan losses may
increase as economic conditions, locally and nationally, evolve.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS.
Statement No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under
a prior standard of purchase accounting, eliminating the so-called
pooling-method which was used to account for some business combinations. This
standard did not have a material effect on Capitol's consolidated financial
statements.

Statement No. 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized and charged
against earnings, but instead be reviewed for impairment. Amortization of
goodwill ceased upon adoption of the Statement on January 1, 2002. This new
standard requires that goodwill be reviewed annually for impairment and,
accordingly, impairment adjustments of goodwill be charged against earnings, if
and when determined. Capitol's previous business combinations (generally,
acquisitions of minority interests) have been accounted for using the purchase
method. As of June 30, 2002, the net carrying amount of goodwill approximated
$12.8 million and other intangible assets approximated $2.6 million. Upon
implementation, this new standard has not had a material effect on Capitol's
consolidated financial statements, other than the elimination of goodwill
amortization (such amortization approximated $386,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2001).

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are
currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory
agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed
standards would be material to Capitol's consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In May 2002, the Securities and Exchange Commission proposed significant
changes in disclosure rules applicable to public companies. One of those
proposed significant changes involves the identification of "critical accounting
policies". Capitol's significant accounting policies are described in the
financial section of its 2001 Annual Report. In the circumstances of Capitol,
management believes its "critical accounting policies" are those which encompass
the allowance for loan losses (due to the inherent subjectivity in estimating
loan losses), accounting for income taxes (due to the significant U.S. corporate
income tax rate and realization of deferred tax assets) and accounting for
goodwill (due to new accounting standards effective at the beginning of 2002).
