Various matters discussed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Summit Bank Corporation ("Summit" or the "Company") to be materially different from the results described in such forward-looking statements.

Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in forward-looking statements in our Form 10-K due to a variety of factors including, without limitation:

• The effects of future economic conditions in our market areas and generally in the United States;

• The effects of changes in interest rates on the level and composition of deposits, loan demand, the value of loan collateral, and interest rate risks; and

• The effects of competition from commercial banks, thrifts, consumer finance companies, and other financial institutions operating in our market area and elsewhere.

All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Summit Bank Corporation was organized as a Georgia corporation on October 15, 1986, primarily to become a bank holding company by acquiring all the common stock of The Summit National Bank (the "Bank") upon its formation. The Bank commenced business on March 10, 1988, and the Company's primary activity since then has been the ownership and operation of the Bank.

The Bank is a banking association organized under the laws of the United States. The Bank engages in commercial banking from its main office and six branch offices, three of which are located in its primary service area of northern metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. A fourth office, opened in 2004, is a limited service branch office located in the south Atlanta area. Two additional branch offices are located in San Jose and Fremont, California. These offices are in ethnic communities that are very similar to part of the Bank's Atlanta primary service area. In the first quarter of 2005, the Bank opened a seventh full-service branch office in northern metropolitan Atlanta. The Bank seeks to serve four principal markets:

• individuals, professionals, and small to medium-sized businesses in the Bank's primary service areas;

• ethnic communities, principally Asian-Americans, European-Americans and Latin Americans, located in the primary service areas, including businesses operated by members of such communities;

• individuals, professionals, and businesses in the primary service areas requiring the international financial transaction services offered by the Bank; and

• foreign corporations and individuals requiring specialized banking services (international private banking) in the Atlanta and San Jose metropolitan areas.

Management believes the identified markets continue to provide significant growth opportunities for the Bank. The Bank offers these markets a variety of traditional and specialized banking services, and emphasizes personal service, cultural sensitivity and accessibility of management.

The Bank offers the full range of deposit services typically offered by most banks and other financial institutions, including checking accounts, NOW accounts, savings accounts and other time deposits of various types, ranging from daily money market accounts to longer-term certificates of deposits. The Bank tailors its transaction accounts and time certificates to the principal market areas at rates competitive to those offered in the area. In addition, retirement accounts such as Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs") are available. The Bank solicits accounts from individuals, businesses, associations, and government entities. All depositors are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") up to the maximum amount ($100,000 per depositor).

There are certain risks in making all loans. A principal economic risk in making loans is the creditworthiness of the borrower. Other risks in making loans include the period of time over which loans may be repaid, changes in economic and industry conditions, circumstances unique to individual borrowers, and uncertainties about the future value of any collateral. The Bank's management maintains an allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, an evaluation of economic conditions and other lending risks, and its regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality.

The Bank offers a full range of short to medium-term commercial and personal loans. Commercial loans include both secured and unsecured loans for working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion (including acquisition of real estate and improvements), and purchase of equipment and machinery. The Bank offers government guaranteed loans under the Small Business Administration ("SBA") loan program. After originating a guaranteed loan, the Bank may sell the guaranteed portion (approximately 75%) resulting in a gain on the sale of the portion of the loan sold. In addition, the Bank retains the servicing rights to these loans, which generate servicing income on the portion sold. Personal (or consumer) loans include secured and unsecured loans for financing automobiles, home improvements, education, and personal investments.

In addition to deposit and loan services, the Bank's other domestic services include 24-hour multi-lingual telephone banking, Internet banking, cash management services, investment sweep accounts, safe deposit boxes, travelers checks, direct deposit of payroll and social security checks, as well as automatic drafts for various accounts. The Bank is a member of the STAR, CIRRUS and EXCHANGE ATM networks. These ATM networks are used by Bank customers in major cities throughout Georgia and California and in various other cities in the United States and worldwide. The ATM located at the Asian Banking Center branch location also offers multi-lingual screens for Asian-speaking patrons. The Bank offers both VISA and MasterCard credit cards to its customers through a third party vendor.

The Bank's international banking services include inbound and outbound international funds transfers, foreign collections, and import and export letters of credit. The Bank also issues bankers acceptances. The Bank issues drafts or bills of exchange to facilitate international trade and funds are available only after the Bank completes a diligent credit review process. In addition, the Bank offers private banking services to qualified foreign individuals and corporations establishing business operations in Atlanta. These specialized private banking services include bill paying, statement and mail holding, currency exchange, international funds transfers and personal lines of credit (including credit card services).

In addition, the Bank's private banking group assists executives living in the United States with personal banking services that support international business objectives. These services include introductions to correspondent financial services as well as to the Company's general business contacts in international trade markets. The Bank does not offer personal or corporate trust services (other than retirement custodial services for IRAs and similar plans).

One of the Bank's two primary service areas covers a section of North Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia including portions of DeKalb, Fulton, Cobb, and Gwinnett Counties. This area includes the city of Chamblee, portions of the cities of Doraville and Norcross, the DeKalb-Peachtree Airport, the Northlake and Perimeter Malls in DeKalb County, Cumberland and Town Center Malls in Cobb County, the Perimeter Business Park and the Peachtree Corners area including Technology Park, and portions of the city of Duluth, Gwinnett County. This area is crossed by major thoroughfares such as Interstate 85 to the East, Georgia 400 to the West, Georgia Highway 140 to the North and Clairmont Road to the South. The Bank also has a deposit processing center located near the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport for the purpose of serving the needs of its customers located near the airport. A second primary service area covers portions of San Jose and Fremont, California. These markets are located in the south San Francisco bay area and are crossed by the major thoroughfares of Highway 101 and Interstates 880, 680, and 280. See "Item 2 - Properties."

One of the Bank's principal target markets is the Atlanta Asian-American population, including members of the Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and Southeast Asian communities. The 2000 United States census indicated that the Atlanta Asian-American population exceeded 170,000 people, with the majority of this population located in north metropolitan Atlanta, including parts of DeKalb, Fulton, and Cobb counties. The South San Francisco market consists largely of Asian-American and Latin-American individuals and businesses.

Management believes the locations of Bank's main office and Atlanta branch offices are convenient to a large number of Asian-Americans. At year-end 2004, approximately 60% of the Bank's Atlanta customers were Asian-American. Vietnamese and Latin-American individuals comprise the majority of the Bank's San Jose branch and Fremont branch customer bases also.

Management believes that the Asian-American community has a high savings rate, low unemployment, and a commitment to economic advancement through education and hard work. This culture lends itself very well to opportunities for the Bank to serve this community's small owner-operated businesses. In addition, a significant percentage of Asian-Americans in the Bank's market are first generation U.S. immigrants who may be constrained in their current use of banking services at other financial institutions by language and other cultural barriers.

The Bank targets the growing Latin-American market in Atlanta which is largely located in Northern DeKalb County and Southern Gwinnett County. The Bank's Peachtree Corners office is located in this area. The population of Latin-Americans in Atlanta grew over 400% during the decade prior to the 2000 census.

The Bank has employed, and will continue to employ, personnel with additional language skills and first-hand knowledge of the communities to be served. Management believes that language ability and cultural sensitivity, combined with accessibility to senior management, enhances the Bank's competitive position in its market.

Management believes that a growing number of domestic businesses in the metropolitan areas served by the Bank (and, in particular, a growing number of small- to medium-sized businesses) require its international banking services. While a number of the large financial institutions operating in the Bank's markets offer such services, they are typically offered from international banking departments located in downtown office facilities or from an out-of-state location. Frequently, personnel in the branch facilities of these larger institutions generally are not trained to address these specialized needs. Management believes that the Bank has penetrated, and will be able to further penetrate, this market by providing businesses with convenient access to personnel specially trained to provide international services.

The Bank does not engage in off-shore buyer financing or cross border lending. Occasionally, the Bank discounts short-term letters of credit drafts for selected correspondent banks under approved facilities. Management believes that the commercial and political risks of these activities are acceptable based on our assessment of available information on the correspondent banks and the respective countries. As of December 31, 2004, there was $522,000 outstanding under such facilities.

In addition to domestic businesses requiring international banking services, management believes that a growing number of foreign businesses in Atlanta and San Jose, along with their executives and employees, frequently require the international banking services provided by the Bank. Foreign nationals doing business in the United States are often unfamiliar with U.S. banking practices. The Bank has personnel with the language and cultural skills suited to serve this clientele. Management further believes the international banking experience of managers of the Bank, along with the contacts of the directors of the Company and the Bank in the international and domestic business communities, enhances the Bank's ability to compete in this target market.

Both the Company and the Bank are subject to extensive state and federal banking regulations that impose restrictions on and provide for general regulatory oversight of their operations. These laws generally are intended to protect depositors and not shareholders. The following discussion describes the material elements of the regulatory framework that applies to us.

The Company

Since the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, it is a bank holding company under the federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. As a result, the Company is primarily subject to the supervision, examination, and reporting requirements of the Bank Holding Company Act and the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve").

Acquisitions of Banks. The Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the Federal Reserve's prior approval before:

• acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if, after the acquisition, the bank holding company will directly or indirectly own or control more than 5% of the bank's voting shares;

Additionally, the Bank Holding Company Act provides that the Federal Reserve may not approve any of these transactions if it would result in or tend to create a monopoly or, substantially lessen competition or otherwise function as a restraint of trade, unless the anti-competitive effects of the proposed transaction are clearly outweighed by the public interest in meeting the convenience and needs of the community to be served. The Federal Reserve is also required to consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the bank holding companies and banks concerned and the convenience and needs of the community to be served. The Federal Reserve's consideration of financial resources generally focuses on capital adequacy, which is discussed below.

Under the Bank Holding Company Act, if adequately capitalized and adequately managed, the Company or any other bank holding company located in Georgia may purchase a bank located outside of Georgia. Conversely, an adequately capitalized and adequately managed bank holding company located outside of Georgia may purchase a bank located inside Georgia. In each case, however, restrictions may be placed on the acquisition of a bank that has only been in existence for a limited amount of time or will result in specified concentrations of deposits.

Change in Bank Control. Subject to various exceptions, the Bank Holding Company Act and the Change in Bank Control Act, together with related regulations, require Federal Reserve approval prior to any person or company acquiring "control" of a bank holding company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding company. Control is refutably presumed to exist if a person or company acquires 10% or more, but less than 25%, of any class of voting securities and either:

• the bank holding company has registered securities under Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1934; or

• no other person owns a greater percentage of that class of voting securities immediately after the transaction.

Our common stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The regulations provide a procedure for challenging any rebuttable presumption of control.

Permitted Activities. A bank holding company is generally permitted under the Bank Holding Company Act, to engage in or acquire direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in the following activities:

• Any activity that the Federal Reserve determines to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident to the business of banking.

Activities that the Federal Reserve has found to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident to the business of banking include:

• Making, acquiring, brokering or servicing loans and usual related activities;

• Underwriting and dealing in government obligations and money market instruments;

• Acting as agent or broker in selling credit life insurance and other types of insurance in connection with credit transactions; and

Despite prior approval, the Federal Reserve may order a bank holding company or its subsidiaries to terminate any of these activities or to terminate its ownership or control of any subsidiary when it has reasonable cause to believe that the bank holding company's continued ownership, activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness, or stability of it or any of its bank subsidiaries.

In addition to the permissible bank holding company activities listed above, a bank holding company may qualify and elect to become a financial holding company, permitting the bank holding company to engage in additional activities that are financial in nature or incidental or complementary to financial activity. The Bank Holding Company Act expressly lists the following activities as financial in nature:

• Insuring, guaranteeing, or indemnifying against loss or harm, or providing and issuing annuities, and acting as principal, agent, or broker for these purposes, in any state;

• Issuing or selling instruments representing interests in pools of assets permissible for a bank to hold directly;

• Other activities that the Federal Reserve may determine to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident to managing or controlling banks;

• Foreign activities permitted outside of the United States if the Federal Reserve has determined them to be usual in connection with banking operations abroad;

To qualify to become a financial holding company, the Bank and any other depository institution subsidiary of the Company must be well capitalized and well managed and must have a Community Reinvestment Act rating of at least "satisfactory." Additionally, the Company must file an election with the Federal Reserve to become a financial holding company and must provide the Federal Reserve with 30 days' written notice prior to engaging in a permitted financial activity. While the Company meets the qualification standards applicable to financial holding companies, the Company has not elected to become a financial holding company at this time.

Support of Subsidiary Institutions. Under Federal Reserve policy, the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for the Bank and to commit resources to support the Bank. This support may be required at times when, without this Federal Reserve policy, the Company might not be inclined to provide it. In addition, any capital loans made by the Company to the Bank will be repaid only after its deposits and various other obligations are repaid in full. In the unlikely event of the Company's bankruptcy, any commitment by it to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of the Bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment.

The Bank

Because the Bank is chartered as a national bank, it is primarily subject to the supervision, examination and reporting requirements of the National Bank Act and the regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency regularly examines the Bank's operations and has the authority to approve or disapprove mergers, the establishment of branches and similar corporate actions. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency also has the power to prevent the continuance or development of unsafe or unsound banking practices or other violations of law. Additionally, the Bank's deposits are insured by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. The Bank is also subject to numerous state and federal statutes and regulations that affect its business, activities and operations.

Branching. National banks are required by the National Bank Act to adhere to branching laws applicable to state banks in the states in which they are located. Under current Georgia law, the Bank may open branch offices throughout Georgia with the prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. In addition, with prior regulatory approval, the Bank may acquire branches of existing banks located in Georgia. The Bank and any other national or state-chartered bank generally may branch across state lines by merging with banks in other states if allowed by the laws of the applicable states (the foreign state).

Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, states may "opt-in" and allow out-of-state banks to branch into their state by establishing a new start-up branch in the state. Currently, Georgia has not opted-in to this provision. Therefore, interstate merger is the only method through which a bank located outside of Georgia may branch into Georgia. This provides a limited barrier of entry into the Georgia banking market, which protects us from an important segment of potential competition. However, because Georgia has elected not to opt-in, our ability to establish a new start-up branch in another state may be limited. Many states that have elected to opt-in have done so on a reciprocal basis, meaning that an out-of-state bank may establish a new start-up branch only if their home state has also elected to opt-in. Consequently, until Georgia changes its election, the only way we will be able to branch into states that have elected to opt-in on a reciprocal basis will be through interstate merger.

Prompt Corrective Action. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 establishes a system of prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized financial institutions. Under this system, the federal banking regulators have established five capital categories (well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized) in which all institutions are placed. Federal banking regulators are required to take various mandatory supervisory actions and are authorized to take other discretionary actions with respect to institutions in the three undercapitalized categories. The severity of the action depends upon the capital category in which the institution is placed. Generally, subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator must appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is critically undercapitalized. The federal banking agencies have specified by regulation the relevant capital level for each category.

An institution that is categorized as undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, or critically undercapitalized is required to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to its appropriate federal banking agency. A bank holding company must guarantee that a subsidiary depository institution meets its capital restoration plan, subject to various limitations. The controlling holding company's obligation to fund a capital restoration plan is limited to the lesser of 5% of an undercapitalized subsidiary's assets at the time it became undercapitalized or the amount required to meet regulatory capital requirements. An undercapitalized institution is also generally prohibited from increasing its average total assets, making acquisitions, establishing any branches or engaging in any new line of business, except under an accepted capital restoration plan or with FDIC approval. The regulations also establish procedures for downgrading an institution to a lower capital category based on supervisory factors other than capital.

FDIC Insurance Assessments. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment system for insured depository institutions that takes into account the risks attributable to different categories and concentrations of assets and liabilities. The system assigns an institution to one of three capital categories: (1) well capitalized; (2) adequately capitalized; and (3) undercapitalized. These three categories are substantially similar to the prompt corrective action categories described above, with the "undercapitalized" category including institutions that are undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized for prompt corrective action purposes. The FDIC also assigns an institution to one of three supervisory subgroups based on a supervisory evaluation that the institution's primary federal regulator provides to the FDIC and information that the FDIC determines to be relevant to the institution's financial condition and the risk posed to the deposit insurance funds. Assessments range from 0 to 27 cents per $100 of deposits, depending on the institution's capital group and supervisory subgroup. In addition, the FDIC imposes assessments to help pay off the $780 million in annual interest payments on the $8 billion Financing Corporation bonds issued in the late 1980s as part of the government rescue of the thrift industry. This assessment rate is adjusted quarterly and is set at 1.44 cents per $100 of deposits for the first quarter of 2005.

The FDIC may terminate its insurance of deposits if it finds that the institution has engaged in unsafe and unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order, or condition imposed by the FDIC.

Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires that, in connection with examinations of financial institutions within their respective jurisdictions, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC, or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, shall evaluate the record of each financial institution in meeting the credit needs of its local community, including low and moderate-income neighborhoods. These facts are also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions, and applications to open a branch or facility. Failure to adequately meet these criteria could impose additional requirements and limitations on the Bank. Additionally, we must publicly disclose the terms of various Community Reinvestment Act-related agreements.

Other Regulations. Interest and other charges collected or contracted for by the Bank are subject to state usury laws and federal laws concerning interest rates. For example, under the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, a lender is generally prohibited from charging an annual interest rate in excess of 6% on any obligation for which the borrower is a person on active duty with the United States military.

The Bank's loan operations are also subject to federal laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the:

• Federal Truth-In-Lending Act, governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers;

• Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975, requiring financial institutions to provide information to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a financial institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the community it serves;

• Equal Credit Opportunity Act, prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibited factors in extending credit;

• Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978, governing the use and provision of information to credit reporting agencies;

• Fair Debt Collection Act, governing the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by collection agencies;

• Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, governing the repayment terms of, and property rights underlying, secured obligations of persons in military service; and

• the rules and regulations of the various federal agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing these federal laws.

• The Right to Financial Privacy Act, which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative subpoenas of financial records; and

• The Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation E issued by the Federal Reserve to implement that act, which govern automatic deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts and customers' rights and liabilities arising from the use of automated teller machines and other electronic banking services.

Capital Adequacy

The Company and the Bank are required to comply with the capital adequacy standards established by the Federal Reserve, in the case of the Company, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, in the case of the Bank. The Federal Reserve has established a risk-based and a leverage measure of capital adequacy for bank holding companies. The Bank is also subject to risk-based and leveraged capital requirements adopted by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which are substantially similar to those adopted by the Federal Reserve for bank holding companies.

The risk-based capital standards are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks and bank holding companies, to account for off-balance-sheet exposure, and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. Assets and off-balance-sheet items, such as letters of credit and unfunded loan commitments, are assigned to broad risk categories, each with appropriate risk weights. The resulting capital ratios represent capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets and off-balance-sheet items.

The minimum guideline for the ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets is 8%. Total capital consists of two components, Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital. Tier 1 Capital generally consists of common stock, minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of qualifying cumulative perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets. Tier 1 Capital must equal at least 4% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 2 Capital generally consists of subordinated debt, other preferred stock, and a limited amount of loan loss reserves. The total amount of Tier 2 Capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 Capital. At December 31, 2004, our ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 13.9% and our ratio of Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets was 12.4%.

In addition, the Federal Reserve has established minimum leverage ratio guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to average assets, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets, of 3% for bank holding companies that meet specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating and implementing the Federal Reserve's risk-based capital measure for market risk. All other bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4%. At December 31, 2004, our leverage ratio was 8.8%. The guidelines also provide that bank holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without reliance on intangible assets. The Federal Reserve considers the leverage ratio and other indicators of capital strength in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activities.

Failure to meet capital guidelines could subject a bank or bank holding company to a variety of enforcement remedies, including issuance of a capital directive, the termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC, a prohibition on accepting brokered deposits, and certain other restrictions on its business. As described above, significant additional restrictions can be imposed on FDIC-insured depository institutions that fail to meet applicable capital requirements. See "--The Bank--Prompt Corrective Action."

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from the Bank. The principal sources of the Company's cash flow, including cash flow to pay dividends to its shareholders, are dividends that the Bank pays to its sole shareholder, the Company. Statutory and regulatory limitations apply to the Bank's payment of dividends to the Company as well as to the Company's payment of dividends to its shareholders.

The Bank is required by federal law to obtain prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for payments of dividends if the total of all dividends declared by our board of directors in any year will exceed (1) the total of the Bank's net profits for that year, plus (2) the Bank's retained net profits of the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus. The Bank paid $2.8 million in cash dividends to the Company in 2004.

The payment of dividends by the Company and the Bank may also be affected by other factors, such as the requirement to maintain adequate capital above regulatory guidelines. If, in the opinion of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Bank were engaged in or about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency could require, after notice and a hearing, that the Bank stop or refrain engaging in the practice. The federal banking agencies have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a depository institution's capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, a depository institution may not pay any dividend if payment would cause it to become undercapitalized or if it already is undercapitalized. Moreover, the federal agencies have issued policy statements that provide that bank holding companies and insured banks should generally only pay dividends out of current operating earnings. See "--The Bank--Prompt Corrective Action" above.

Restrictions on Transactions with Affiliates

The Company and the Bank are subject to the provisions of Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. Section 23A places limits on the amount of:

• assets a bank may purchase from affiliates, except for real and personal property exempted by the Federal Reserve;

• loans or extensions of credit to third parties collateralized by the securities or obligations of affiliates; and

• a bank's guarantee, acceptance or letter of credit issued on behalf of an affiliate.

The total amount of the above transactions is limited in amount, as to any one affiliate, to 10% of a bank's capital and surplus and, as to all affiliates combined, to 20% of a bank's capital and surplus. In addition to the limitation on the amount of these transactions, each of the above transactions must also meet specified collateral requirements. The Bank must also comply with other provisions designed to avoid the taking of low-quality assets.

The Company and the Bank are also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act which, among other things, prohibit an institution from engaging in the above transactions with affiliates unless the transactions are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies.

The Bank is also subject to restrictions on extensions of credit to its executive officers, directors, principal shareholders and their related interests. These extensions of credit (1) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with third parties, and (2) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features.

Financial institutions are required to disclose their policies for collecting and protecting confidential information. Customers generally may prevent financial institutions from sharing nonpublic personal financial information with nonaffiliated third parties except under narrow circumstances, such as the processing of transactions requested by the consumer or when the financial institution is jointly sponsoring a product or service with a nonaffiliated third party. Additionally, financial institutions generally may not disclose consumer account numbers to any nonaffiliated third party for use in telemarketing, direct mail marketing or other marketing to consumers.

On December 4, 2003, the President signed the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (the "FAIR Act"), amending the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (the "FCRA"). Most of the amendments to the FCRA (the "FCRA Amendments") became effective in 2004. The FCRA Amendments include, among other things:

• new requirements for financial institutions to develop policies and procedures to identify potential identity theft and, upon the request of a consumer, place a fraud alert in the consumer's credit file stating that the consumer may be the victim of identity theft or other fraud;

• consumer notice requirements for lenders that use consumer report information in connection with risk-based credit pricing programs;

• for entities that furnish information to consumer reporting agencies (which would include the Bank), new requirements to implement procedures and policies regarding the accuracy and integrity of the furnished information, and regarding the correction of previously furnished information that is later determined to be inaccurate; and

• a new requirement for mortgage lenders to disclose credit scores to consumers.

The FCRA Amendments also prohibit a business that receives consumer information from an affiliate from using that information for marketing purposes unless the consumer is first provided a notice and an opportunity to direct the business not to use the information for such marketing purposes, subject to certain exceptions. The Company and its affected subsidiaries will have implement policies and procedures to comply with the new rules.

The Bank is subject to the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act (the "USA PATRIOT Act"), the Bank Secrecy Act, and rules and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (the "OFAC"). 8These statutes and related rules and regulations impose requirements and limitations on specified financial transactions and account relationships, intended to guard against money laundering and terrorism financing. The Bank has established a customer identification program pursuant to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Bank Secrecy Act, and otherwise has implemented policies and procedures and policies to comply with the foregoing rules.

New regulations and statutes are regularly proposed that contain wide-ranging proposals for altering the structures, regulations and competitive relationships of financial institutions operating and doing business in the United States. We cannot predict whether or in what form any proposed regulation or statute will be adopted or the extent to which our business may be affected by any new regulation or statute.

Effect of Governmental Monetary Polices

Our earnings are affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. The Federal Reserve Bank's monetary policies have had, and are likely to continue to have, an important impact on the operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement national monetary policy in order, among other things, to curb inflation or combat a recession. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve affect the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits through its control over the issuance of United States government securities, its regulation of the discount rate applicable to member banks and its influence over reserve requirements to which member banks are subject. We cannot predict the nature or impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

The Company's shares are listed on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "SBGA". As of March 1, 2005, the quoted purchase price for the Company's shares was $15.44 per share. There were approximately 340 holders of record of the Company's Common Stock at March 1, 2005. Additionally, there are an estimated 1,270 shareholders who hold shares in various brokerage and investment accounts.

The Company began paying quarterly cash dividends in 1995 and paid a total of $.08 per share in that year. The Company paid a total of $.40 and $.35 per share in cash dividends in 2004 and 2003, respectively. These amounts have been restated for the stock dividend awarded in 2004. Although the Company currently plans to continue paying cash dividends on a quarterly basis, Summit's dividend policy may change in the future. The declaration and payment of dividends will depend upon business conditions, operating results, capital and reserve requirements, and the Board of Directors' consideration of other relevant factors. In addition, our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend, in part, on the earnings of the Bank and its ability to pay dividends to the Company. See "Business -- Supervision and Regulation -- Payment of Dividends."

For additional information concerning the Company's quarterly stock prices and quarterly cash dividends see the Company's 2004 Annual Report to Shareholders which is incorporated by reference herein.

The Company did not repurchase any of its securities during the fourth quarter of 2004.
