Reference is hereby made to the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 16, 2001, with respect to ownership by the Reporting Persons of equity securities of National Mercantile Bancorp (the “Company”), as last amended by that Amendment No. 10 to Schedule 13D filed with the Commission on November 30, 2006 (the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 11 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 10).
Item 5.	Interest in Securities of the Issuer
	(a) Number and Percentage of Class beneficially owned:
On December 15, 2006, three of the Reporting Persons entered into a Securities Purchase and Option Agreement with David R. Brown, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Brown Agreement”). Under the terms of the Brown Agreement, on December 15, 2006, the following persons (“Purchasers”) purchased shares from Brown at a price of $15.645.

Purchaser		Shares of Common Stock
James O. Pohlad		4,167
Robert C. Pohlad		4,167
William M. Pohlad		4,166
		12,500

Brown and the Purchasers also agree that on February 28, 2007, the Purchasers will purchase the following shares from Brown:

Purchaser		Shares of Common Stock
James O. Pohlad		4,167
Robert C. Pohlad		4,166
William M. Pohlad		4,166
		12,500

Brown also agreed that he will exercise options to purchase:

(i) 10,000 shares on or before January 31, 2007, and

(ii) 5,625 additional shares on or before June 30, 2007.

The Purchasers agreed that on the tenth business day following the one-year anniversary of each option exercise, each Purchaser will purchase approximately one-third of the shares issued upon the option exercises as follows:

	Shares of Common Stock
Purchaser	January 31, 2007 Purchase	June 30, 2007 Purchase
James O. Pohlad	3,333	1,875
Robert C. Pohlad	3,334	1,875
William M. Pohlad	3,333	1,875
	10,000	5,625

Under the terms of the Brown Agreement, the purchase price after the December 15, 2006 purchase will the greater of

(i) the average per share closing price of Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market during the 30 day period ending on the last trading day preceding the date of purchase and
(ii) 2.1 times the book value per share of common stock computed as of the last day of the Company’s most recently completed and reported fiscal quarter.

Right of First Refusal. If Brown proposes to transfer shares to another person, Brown must give notice of the proposed transfer to the Purchasers, each of whom will have 30 days to exercise the right of first refusal to purchase one-third of the shares at a price equal to the greater of (i) the proposed purchase price to be paid by the third party and (ii) the purchase price determined pursuant to the purchase price formula under the Brown Agreement. If Brown files a voluntary petition for bankruptcy or a similar process, the Purchasers will have the right to purchase all shares then owned by Brown.

Put and Call Option. Commencing on the termination of Brown’s employment from the Company and ending on the fifth anniversary, Brown will have the right from time to time to put some or all of the shares to the Purchasers collectively. Commencing on the second anniversary of the termination of Brown’s employment and ending on the fifth anniversary, the Purchasers will collectively have the one-time right to purchase all shares held by Brown.

The rights and obligations under the Brown Agreement will be suspended or terminated in the event the Company files a Form 8-K announcing a transaction in which the Company would be acquired by a third party for cash or other related corporate transaction. The Brown Agreement also provides the agreement will survive the consummation of any merger of the Company with another entity or entities, unless the merger is a cash-out merger.

The following table shows as of December 15, 2006 the number of shares of the Company’s stock owned by, and percentage beneficial ownership of, each of the Reporting Persons and by the Reporting Persons as a group.

Name	Shares of Common Stock	Percent of Class	Shares of Series B Preferred Stock	Percent of Class	Common Stock and Equivalents	Percentage Beneficial Ownership All Classes
Carl R. Pohlad (1)	387,498	7.0	0	—	387,498	7.0
James O. Pohlad (2)	837,612	15.1	334	33.4	922,147	16.3
Robert C. Pohlad	837,611	15.1	333	33.3	921,892	16.3
William M. Pohlad	837,610	15.1	333	33.3	921,891	16.3
Reporting Persons as a Group	2,900,331	52.10	1,000	100.0	3,153,429	56.7

(1) Represents 193,749 shares of common stock held by Trust 1 and 193,749 shares of common stock held by Trust 2. Carl R. Pohlad is the sole trustee and sole beneficiary of Trust 1 and Trust 2.

(2) Includes 176 shares of common stock James O. Pohlad has the obligation to repurchase and right to repurchase from W. Douglas Hile for aggregate consideration of $10 pursuant to that certain Director’s Qualifying Shares Agreement dated July 25, 2003. The repurchase obligation is triggered upon (a) the voluntary or involuntary termination of Mr. Hile as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company; (b) notice of desire to sell or repurchase, respectively; (c) determination of the provisions of the Director’s Qualifying Shares Agreement as illegal, unenforceable or in contravention of banking law or (d) bankruptcy or insolvency of Mr. Hile.

The percentages of beneficial ownership are based on the following number of shares of each class outstanding as of November 10, 2006 as represented by the Company in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ending September 30, 2006: 5,564,955 shares of common stock and 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The column entitled “Common Stock and Equivalents” represents the number of shares of Company’s common stock and the number of shares of common stock issuable within 60 days of December 15, 2006 upon conversion of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, as described below. The column entitled “Percentage of Beneficial Ownership All Classes” shows the percentage beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock and the shares of common stock issuable within 60 days of December 15, 2006 upon conversion of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock.

In addition to the shares of common stock owned or issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Reporting Persons have the right to purchase additional shares under the Montgomery Agreement and the Brown Agreement in the future as set forth below. Because none of these shares are purchasable by any Reporting Persons within 60 days of December 15, 2006, they are not included in the total listed shares. The Montgomery Agreement is described in prior filings on Schedule 13D.

Name	Shares of Common Stock Acquirable Pursuant to Montgomery Agreement	Shares of Common Stock Acquirable Pursuant to Brown Agreement
James O. Pohlad	74,268	9,375
Robert C. Pohlad	74,270	9,375
William M. Pohlad	74,270	9,375
Reporting Persons as a Group	222,808	28,125

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into the number of shares of common stock of the Company as is equal to the liquidation amount divided by the conversion price. The liquidation amount per share of Class B Preferred Stock is $1,000 plus 8.5% per annum of $1,000, accruing from the date of issuance of the Class B Preferred Stock. The initial conversion price (as adjusted for the 2006 stock dividend) is $5.63 per share of common stock. Both the liquidation amount and the conversion price are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. Based upon the above formula, each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 252.1088 shares of the Company’s common stock as of December 15, 2006.

The following number of shares of common stock is issuable within 60 days of December 15, 2006 upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock held by the following Reporting Persons:

Name		Shares
James O. Pohlad		84,535 shares
Robert C. Pohlad		84,281 shares
William M. Pohlad		84,281 shares

(b) Voting and Dispositive Power:

Each Reporting Person has sole voting and sole investment power over the respective securities noted above as beneficially owned by him. In addition, pursuant to that certain Director’s Disqualifying Shares Agreement dated July 25, 2003, James O. Pohlad was granted voting power over the 176 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Mr. Hile that is the subject of the Director’s Disqualifying Shares Agreement.

Transactions within 60 days:

In the past sixty days, transactions effected by the Reporting Persons or by any other person whose beneficial ownership may be attributable to the Reporting Persons consisted only of the transactions described above in respect of the Brown Agreement and transactions previously reported in Amendment No. 10 to this Schedule 13D.

WHEREAS, Seller is the holder of incentive stock options (the “Existing Options”) to purchase 15,625 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share (“Common Stock”), which Options have been awarded to Seller under the Company’s equity compensation plans, and Seller is the holder of 25,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Seller Shares”);

WHEREAS, Purchasers are existing holders of shares of the Company’s capital stock;

WHEREAS, Seller and Purchasers desire to provide for the purchase and sale of any and all shares of Common Stock, any other securities evidencing an equity or ownership interest in the Company, or any securities convertible into or exercisable for an equity or ownership interest in the Company (collectively, the “Shares”), with such Shares including but not limited to: (i) the Shares that Seller may acquire upon exercise of the Existing Options and/or upon exercise of additional options to purchase Common Stock granted to Seller (such Existing Options and other options collectively referred to as the “Options”); and (ii) the Seller Shares, in each case under the circumstances and conditions set forth in this Agreement, but excluding (iii) any additional securities purchased by Seller from any third party.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Seller’s Representation. Seller hereby represents and warrants that, except for the Existing Options and the Seller Shares, the Seller does not hold any other Shares.

2. Purchase of Seller Shares and Common Stock Issued Upon Exercise of Existing Options.

(a) 2006 Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller and each Purchaser hereby covenant and agree that on December 15, 2006, Seller shall sell to

(c) Option Exercises and Purchases. Seller shall exercise Existing Options to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock on or before January 31, 2007 and to purchase an additional 5,625 shares of Common Stock on or before June 30, 2007, and may exercise any other Options as and when Seller may determine in his sole discretion (each an “Option Exercise”). Immediately following each Option Exercise, Seller shall deliver written notice to each Purchaser indicating the date of such Option Exercise and number of shares acquired. On the tenth business day following the one-year anniversary of each Option Exercise, Seller shall sell to Purchasers, and Purchasers shall purchase from Seller, all shares of Common Stock issued to Seller in connection with such Option Exercise, with each Purchaser obligated to purchase from Seller, one-third of such shares.

(d) Purchase Price. The per share purchase price payable by Purchasers for each Share purchased pursuant to this Agreement (unless otherwise expressly noted) shall be the greater of: (i) the average per share closing price of the Shares to be purchased as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market or other applicable public exchange on which such Shares are traded, to the extent such Shares are so reported, during the thirty (30) day period ending on the last trading day preceding the date of purchase by Purchasers of each such Share (as appropriately adjusted in the event of a stock issuance, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, reclassification or like change in the capital structure of the Company during such 30-day period); and (ii) two and 10/100 (2.1) times the book value per Share (on a fully-diluted basis, taking into account, among other things, the conversion or payment of all shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock), computed as of the last day of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter for which the Company shall have made its results of operations or balance sheet publicly available (by Form 10-KSB, Form 10-QSB, press

release or otherwise) prior to the date of purchase by Purchasers of each such Share (the last day of such fiscal quarter being the “Book Value Computation Date”) and as appropriately adjusted in the event of a stock issuance, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, reclassification or like change in the capital structure of the Company between the Book Value Computation Date and the date of purchase by Purchasers of each such Share (the greater of (i) and (ii) being the “Purchase Price”).

(e) Closing Deliveries, Assignment and Assumption of Obligations. In connection with the purchase and sale of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2: (i) Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchasers such shares free and clear of any and all liens, charges, covenants, conditions, easements, adverse claims, demands, encumbrances, limitations, security interests, options, pledges or any other title defects or restrictions of any kind (each, a “Lien”); and (ii) Seller shall make such other deliveries to Purchasers as Purchasers may reasonably deem to be necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Any Purchaser may assign all or any portion of such Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Section 2 to any other Purchaser. In the event a Purchaser fails or is otherwise unable to perform his obligations under this Section 2, the remaining Purchasers shall have the option of assuming and performing the obligations of the defaulting Purchaser on a pro rata basis.

3. Restrictions on Transfer of Shares.

(a) Unless he complies with Section 4 of this Agreement, Seller shall not voluntarily Transfer (as hereinafter defined) all or any part of or any interest in any Shares now or hereafter held by Seller except pursuant to Section 2 or a Company Sale Transaction (an “Excluded Transfer”). Any Transfer of Shares by Seller not made in conformance with this Agreement shall be null and void, shall not be recorded on the books of the Company and shall not be recognized by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer,” when used as a noun, means any actual or proposed disposition of Shares, by means of sale, delivery, assignment, gift, bequest, devise, exchange or other transfer of any kind, as well as any pledge, hypothecation or encumbrance, and “Transfer,” when used as a verb, means the act of making a Transfer, as that term is used as a noun.

(b) The foregoing restrictions on Seller’s Transfer of Shares shall terminate: (i) in the event Purchasers materially breach any material term of this Agreement, and Seller delivers written notice of such breach to Purchasers and Purchasers fail to cure such breach within ten (10) days of receipt of such written notice from Seller, or (ii) thirty (30) days following the Cut-Off Date (as defined in Section 5 of this Agreement). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, a breach by one or more Purchasers may also be cured by the remaining non-breaching Purchasers, in their sole and absolute discretion.

4. Right of First Refusal Option.

(a) Voluntary Transfers. If, at any time prior to the Cut-Off Date, Seller proposes to voluntarily Transfer Shares to one or more persons or entities, other than in an Excluded Transfer (a “Proposed Transfer”), then Seller shall give each Purchaser written notice (the “Proposed Transfer Notice”) of Seller’s intention to make the Proposed Transfer, which Proposed Transfer Notice shall include (A) the number of Shares proposed to be Transferred (the “Offered

Shares”), (B) the identity of the prospective transferee(s), if known, and (C) the consideration and the material terms and conditions upon which the Proposed Transfer is to be made, if known. If the Proposed Transfer is related to a bona fide firm offer, Seller’s Proposed Transfer Notice shall certify that Seller has received a bona fide firm offer from the prospective transferee(s) and in good faith believes a binding agreement for the Proposed Transfer is obtainable on the terms set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice, and shall also include a copy of any written proposal, term sheet or letter of intent or other agreement relating to such Proposed Transfer. Each Purchaser shall have an option for a period of thirty (30) days from receipt of a Proposed Transfer Notice (such thirty-day period being the “Offer Exercise Period”) to elect to purchase one-third of the Offered Shares (it being acknowledged that that Purchasers shall collectively have the option to purchase all of the Offered Shares). In the case of a Proposed Transfer pursuant to a bona fide firm offer, the purchase of the Offered Shares by Purchasers shall be subject to the same material terms and conditions as described in the Proposed Transfer Notice, except that the per share purchase price payable by Purchasers for each Offered Share shall be equal to the greater of: (1) the per share purchase price contained in the Proposed Transfer Notice; and (2) the Purchase Price calculated at the last day of such Offer Exercise Period. In the case of a Proposed Transfer other than pursuant to a bona fide firm offer, the purchase of Offered Shares shall be at a per share purchase price equal to the Purchase Price calculated at the last day of the Offer Exercise Period. Each Purchaser may exercise such purchase option and, thereby, purchase one-third of the Offered Shares, by notifying Seller in writing before expiration of the Offer Exercise Period as to such Purchaser’s exercise of such purchase option. If a Purchaser gives Seller notice that such Purchaser desires to purchase Offered Shares, then payment for the Offered Shares shall be by check or wire transfer, against delivery of the Offered Shares to be purchased at a place agreed upon between the parties and at the time of the scheduled closing therefor, which shall be no later than forty-five (45) days after Purchasers’ receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice, unless the Proposed Transfer Notice provides for a later closing date. In the event that Purchasers do not elect to collectively purchase all Offered Shares in connection with a Proposed Transfer, then Seller shall be free to sell to the prospective third-party transferee(s) all of the Offered Shares, upon terms that are no more favorable to such transferee(s) than those included in the Proposed Transfer Notice. Any subsequent proposed sale of Offered Shares on terms that are more favorable to the third-party proposed transferee(s) than those included in the Proposed Transfer Notice shall constitute a new Proposed Transfer and shall give rise anew to the options described in this Section 4(a).

(b) Involuntary Transfers.

(i) In the event that prior to the Cut-Off Date Seller: (1) files a voluntary petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or a petition for the appointment of a receiver, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (2) is subjected involuntarily to such petition or assignment or to an attachment or other legal or equitable interest with respect to any of Seller’s Shares and such involuntary petition, assignment or attachment is not discharged within ninety (90) days after its effective date; or (3) is subjected to any other involuntary Transfer of any of Seller’s Shares by legal process, including, without limitation, a Transfer pursuant to a divorce decree, then Seller shall notify Purchasers in writing (an “Involuntary Transfer Notice”) of such event and shall disclose the terms and conditions of the involuntary Transfer or potential involuntary Transfer of Seller’s Shares. Each Purchaser shall then have the option, exercisable by

giving written notice to Seller within thirty (30) days of Purchasers’ receipt of the Involuntary Transfer Notice, to elect to purchase one-third of the Shares that are subject to the involuntary Transfer or potential involuntary Transfer (it being acknowledged that Purchasers shall collectively have the option to purchase all of such Shares). The closing of any purchase and sale of Shares pursuant to this Section 4(b)(i) shall take place at a mutually agreeable location no more than forty-five (45) days after a Purchasers’ receipt of the Involuntary Transfer Notice. Purchasers understand and agree that Seller shall have no obligation under this Section 4(b)(i) that would contravene applicable law or regulation, including without limitation bankruptcy laws.

(ii) The per share purchase price payable by Purchasers for Shares purchased pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be the Purchase Price.

(c) Closing Deliveries; Assignment of Rights. In connection with the purchase and sale of any Shares pursuant to this Section 4, the Seller shall: (i) sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchasers such Shares free and clear of any and all Liens; and (ii) make such other deliveries to Purchasers as Purchasers may reasonably deem to be necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Any Purchaser may assign all or any portion of such Purchaser’s rights under this Section 4 to any other Purchaser. In the event a Purchaser elects not to, fails or is otherwise unable to exercise his rights under this Section 4, such rights shall be allocated to and may be exercised by the remaining Purchasers.

5. Put and Call Option.

(a) Commencing upon the termination of Seller’s employment with the Company for any reason and ending on the fifth anniversary of such termination (the “Cut-Off Date”), the Seller shall have the right and option at any time and from time to time to sell to Purchasers some or all of the Shares held, or that may be issued upon exercise of Options held by Seller at the date of termination of Seller’s employment (the “Covered Shares”) upon not less than fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Purchasers (the “Put Exercise Notice”). The Put Exercise Notice shall state the number of Covered Shares to be sold to Purchasers (the “Put Shares”). Upon delivery of the Put Exercise Notice, the Seller shall be obligated to sell the Put Shares to the Purchasers, and each Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase one-third of the Put Shares from Seller. The purchase price for the Put Shares shall be the Purchase Price, determined as of the date the Put Exercise Notice is delivered to Purchasers or such other date that may be agreed between Seller and at least two of the Purchasers. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Put Shares shall be within twenty (20) days of delivery of the Put-Exercise Notice.

(b) Commencing upon the second anniversary of the termination of Seller’s employment with the Company for any reason and ending on the fifth anniversary of such termination, each Purchaser shall have the one-time right and option to purchase one-third (and not less than one-third) of the Covered Shares then held by Seller (which for purposes of this paragraph shall include shares issuable upon exercise of any unexpired, unexercised options held by Seller which have an exercise price less than the Purchase Price and which shall be exercised in order to facilitate their purchase in accordance with this paragraph) for the Purchase Price by not less than fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Seller and the other Purchasers (the “Call Notice”). If such Call Notice is delivered by less than all of the Purchasers, the remaining

Purchasers shall have five (5) days to exercise their right to purchase one-third of the Covered Shares in accordance with this paragraph by delivery of written notice to Seller and the other Purchasers. In the event a Purchaser elects not to or otherwise fails to provide notice of exercise within such five (5) day period, such rights shall be allocated to and may be exercised by the remaining Purchasers provided that they deliver a further notice to Seller within five (5) days. The purchase price for the Covered Shares shall be the Purchase Price, determined as of the date the Call Notice is delivered to Seller or such other date to which the participating Purchasers and Seller agree. Upon delivery by Purchasers of the notices required by this paragraph, Seller shall be obligated to sell to the delivering Purchasers, and the delivering Purchasers shall be obligated to purchase from Seller that portion of the Covered Shares indicated in their respective notices. The closing of the purchase and sale shall be within fifteen (15) days of delivery or expiration of the time for delivery of the final notice contemplated by this paragraph.

(c) In connection with the purchase and sale of any Covered Shares pursuant to this Section 5: (i) Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchasers such shares of Common Stock free and clear of any and all Liens; and (ii) Seller shall make such other deliveries to Purchasers as Purchasers may reasonably deem to be necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Any Purchaser may assign all or any portion of such Purchaser’s rights under this Section 5 to any other Purchaser.

6. Company Sale Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that: (a) the Company files a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in which the Company announces (i) a merger of the Company with an unrelated third party pursuant to which the shareholders of the Company would receive cash as consideration in connection with such merger, (ii) a sale of all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock to one or more third parties or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (b) a person or entity has announced a tender offer for no less than a majority of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock (each, a “Company Sale Transaction”), then Seller’s obligations under this Agreement to sell Shares to Purchasers (including Shares to be sold one year and one business day following an exercise of Options) shall be suspended during the pendency of such Company Sale Transaction and (A) if such Company Sale Transaction is consummated, Seller’s obligation to sell Shares to Purchasers shall terminate in respect of any Shares that Seller sells in connection with such Company Sale Transaction (or in respect of all Shares if such Company Sale Transaction is structured as a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company) or (B) if such Company Sale Transaction terminates without being consummated for any reason whatsoever, Seller shall be obligated to sell to Purchasers any Shares that Seller would have been required to sell to Purchasers during the pendency of such Company Sale Transaction. In the event of a Company Sale Transaction in which Seller Transfer all of his Shares, this Agreement (other than the obligations of Purchasers under Section 18) shall terminate.

7. Blackout Periods.

lapse, at which time Seller shall be obligated to sell such Shares to Purchasers in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

8. Legend. Each existing or replacement certificate for Shares shall bear the following legend upon its face:

“THE SALE, DELIVERY, ASSIGNMENT, GIFT, BEQUEST, DEVISE EXCHANGE OR OTHER TRANSFER OF ANY KIND, AS WELL AS ANY PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR ENCUMBRANCE, OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE, IS RESTRICTED BY, AND SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF, A CERTAIN SECURITIES PURCHASE AND OPTION AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF DECEMBER 19, 2005, BY AND AMONG THE HOLDER HEREOF AND CERTAIN OTHER PARTIES.”

Each Purchaser shall be entitled to assign each such Purchaser’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Seller, to another Purchaser or an affiliate, provided that such assignment shall not relieve Purchaser from his obligations under this Agreement. In the event of the death of a Purchaser, the rights and obligations of such Purchaser shall be allocated among, assigned to and assumed by the remaining Purchasers on a pro rata basis. Except as expressly contemplated hereby, Seller shall not be entitled to assign any of his rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Purchaser.
