(1)  Net interest income for the mortgage banking segment is generated from the
interest earned on mortgage loans held for sale, less the interest expense
incurred on short-term borrowings used to fund loan production and servicing
acquisitions.  The Company's internal funds transfer pricing charges the
mortgage banking segment an interest rate based on its overall cost of funds for
the loans held for sale balances and an interest rate based on the prime rate to
fund its servicing portfolio and operations.

(2) Excludes impact of $19.0 million charge related to the exit of the
residential mortgage servicing business.

Note 7 - Subsequent Event
         ----------------

On April 16, 2001, the Company announced that it had executed a definitive
agreement for the sale of Market Street Mortgage Corporation for $20 million in
cash and stock to NetBank, Inc.  Market Street Mortgage, headquartered in
Clearwater, Florida, is a retail mortgage lender with 42 offices in 11 states.
The sale is expected to close later in the second quarter, subject to regulatory
approvals.  Based upon the current stock price of NetBank, the Company expects
to record a gain of approximately $12-$14 million, which is net of transaction
costs and closing adjustments.  In conjunction with the sale of Market Street
Mortgage, the Company is separately selling its $1.8 billion mortgage servicing
portfolio and exiting the servicing business.

Note 8 - Accounting and Financial Reporting Developments
         -----------------------------------------------

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which was amended
in June 1999 by Statement No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133,
and in June 2000 by Statement No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative
Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities and is required to be adopted by the
Company in years beginning after June 15, 2000.  The Statement requires
companies to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.
Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income.
If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in
the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair
value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or
recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in
earnings.  The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will
be immediately recognized in earnings.

The Company implemented FAS 133, as amended effective January 1, 2001.  The
cumulative effect of the adoption of FAS 133 was not material.  For the quarter
ended March 31, 2001, the Company's hedging policies using mandatory forward
commitments, as they relate to Interest Rate Lock Commitments and mortgage loans
held for sale, were highly effective.  Therefore, FAS 133's impact on net income
was immaterial.

ITEM 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

EARNINGS PERFORMANCE
--------------------

The Company reported record net operating income for the quarter ended March 31,
2001 of $13.1 million, a 16% increase over the $11.3 million earned in the first
quarter of 2000.  Diluted operating earnings per share for the first quarter of
2001 were $.26, an increase of 17% over the $.22 earned in 2000.  Annualized
operating returns on average assets and shareholders' equity for the first three
months of 2001 were 1.13% and 16.75%, respectively.

To better understand underlying trends and performance, net operating earnings
for the first quarter of 2001 exclude $19.0 million of pre-tax charges related
to the exit of the Company's residential mortgage servicing business.  These
charges include a write-down of mortgage servicing rights of $16.1 million,
transaction costs associated with the servicing portfolio sale of approximately
$2.0 million and costs associated with winding down the servicing operation of
approximately $900,000.  Severance and employee benefit accruals were
immaterial.  The sale and related wind down of the loan servicing operation is
expected to take place during the second and third quarter of 2001.  The accrued
expenses for these items will be utilized during the same period.  Including
these charges, the Company reported net income for the quarter of $799,000 or
$.02 per share.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

Mortgage Banking

The following discussion provides information that relates specifically to the
Company's mortgage banking line of business, which generates revenue from
mortgage loan production and mortgage loan servicing activities.  Mortgage
banking revenue represents the largest component of the Company's total
noninterest income.

The Company closed $1.4 billion in single-family residential mortgage loans in
the first quarter of 2001, up 60% compared to $851 million closed in the same
period last year.  Mortgage loan volumes during 2001 increased primarily due to
the declining interest rate environment which has resulted in a higher level of
mortgage refinance activity.  Refinancings for the first quarter of 2001
represented approximately 54% of total closings compared to 12% in the first
quarter of 2000.

(1) Includes fee revenue derived from the loan origination process (i.e.,
    points collected), gains on the sale of mortgage loans and the related
    mortgage servicing rights released concurrently with the underlying loans
    sold, net of commissions and incentives paid of $7.2 million and $3.8
    million for 2001 and 2000, respectively.
(2) Includes servicing fees, late fees and other ancillary charges, net of
    amortization of mortgage servicing rights.

For the three months ended March 31, 2001, mortgage banking revenue decreased
$2.2 million, or 12%, to $16.5 million from $18.7 million a year earlier.  The
decrease is primarily the result of decreases in net mortgage loan servicing
revenue of $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2000 and no
gain on the bulk sales of mortgage servicing rights in 2001 compared to $1.1
million in 2000.  These decreases were off set by a $1.9 million or 13% increase
in mortgage production revenue.  The increase in mortgage loan production
revenue was primarily a result of higher mortgage loan production and the
resulting sales of loans in the secondary market.  Total loans sold during the
quarter were $1.1 billion compared to $768 million during the first quarter of
2000.  The ratio of mortgage production revenue to mortgage loans sold was 2.14%
in the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2.41% in the first quarter of 2000.

Net mortgage loan servicing revenue was a net loss of $199,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2001 compared to a revenue of $2.9 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000.  The decrease in revenue reflects an increase in amortization of
mortgage servicing rights of $1.6 million from the first quarter of 2000 to $3.4
million during the first quarter of 2001.  The increase in amortization expense
was the result of the increase in residential mortgage loan refinance activity
during 2001 and corresponding increase in mortgage prepayments of the Company's
servicing portfolio.  The decrease in net mortgage loan servicing revenue also
reflects a reduction in the average mortgage loan servicing portfolio as loans
serviced for others averaged $2.1 billion for the first quarter of 2001 compared
to $2.9 billion for 2000.

As discussed earlier, at the end of the first quarter of 2001 the Company
elected to exit the residential mortgage servicing business.  Mortgage servicing
rights were reduced by $16.1 million at March 31, 2001 to reflect the current
market value of the servicing portfolio.  A sale agreement regarding Market
Street's mortgage servicing portfolio was subsequently signed in April 2001 with
an unaffiliated company.  The significant decrease in the value of the servicing
portfolio from December 31, 2000 was a result of dramatic increases in the
prepayment speed assumption (PSA) during the first quarter of 2001, as well as
an over 120 basis points decrease in the earnings rate received on escrow
balances.  These changes were a result of the decline in short-term interest
rates occurring during the quarter due to the Federal Reserve Board's action to
lower the federal funds rate.  The impairment reserve on the Company's mortgage
servicing rights balance at December 31, 2000 was $6.6 million.

The Company expects to sell all mortgage servicing rights concurrently with the
sale of the underlying loans.  The Company did not have any bulk sales of
mortgage servicing rights in the first three months of 2001.  In the first
quarter of 2000, bulk sales of mortgage servicing rights with principal balances
of $361 million, resulted in a gain of $1.1 million.

Commercial and Retail Banking

The remaining disclosures and analyses within Management's Discussion and
Analysis regarding the Company's results of operations and financial condition
relate principally to the commercial and retail banking line of business.

Net Interest Income
-------------------

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Tables I on the
following page, which provides detailed analyses of the components impacting net
interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis, was $34.2
million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to $32.7 million for the first
quarter of 2000.  The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the
Company's average interest-earning assets of $362 million.  The average
portfolio loan balance increased $307 million, or 9% during the first quarter of
2001 compared to 2000.  This increase reflects a $256 million, or 28% increase
in average commercial loans, a $122 million, or 7% increase in residential real
estate mortgage loans, net of a $71 million, or 10% decrease in installment
loans.  In addition, the average balance of mortgage loans held for sale
increased $66 million, or 15% for the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2000.
Funding the growth in portfolio loans and mortgage loans held for sale were
increases in the Company's savings and time deposits and FHLB advances.

The net interest margin (FTE) was 3.12% for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, a
decrease of 9 basis points from 3.21% in 2000.  The decrease in the margin was
due to the increase in the Company's cost of funds for the first quarter of 2001
exceeding the increase in the interest yield on earning assets.

Noninterest Expense
-------------------

Excluding the $19.0 million of charges related to the exit of its residential
mortgage servicing business, total non-interest expense for the quarter ended
March 31, 2001 decreased $4.4 million, or 13%, to $30.4 million compared to
$34.8 million for the first quarter of 2000.  The decrease is primarily the
result of decreases in salaries and employee benefits and other noninterest
expense.  These decreases reflect cost savings associated with the integration
of D&N Bank and Republic Banc Mortgage Corporation into Republic Bank which took
place in December 2000.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
----------------------

ASSETS
------
At March 31, 2001, the Company had $4.67 billion in total assets, an increase of
$59 million, or 1%, from $4.61  billion at December 31, 2000.  The increase is
primarily the result of increases in the Company's mortgage loans held for sale
and commercial loans.

Securities
----------

Investment securities available for sale decreased $3 million, to $209 million,
representing 4.5% of total assets at March 31, 2001.  At December 31, 2000, the
investment securities portfolio totaled $212 million, or 4.6% of total assets.
During the first three months of 2001, the company sold $80.3 million of
investment securities and realized gross gains and losses on the sales of
available for sale securities of $371,000 and $4,000, respectively.

The Company's investment securities portfolio, while serving as a source of
earnings and liquidity risk, carries relatively minimal principal risk and
contributes to the management of interest rate risk.  The portfolio is comprised
primarily of municipal securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.  The
Company's equity securities portfolio consists primarily of Federal Home Loan
Bank stock.

The following table details the composition, amortized cost and fair value of
the Company's investment securities portfolio at March 31, 2001:

Certain securities having a carrying value of approximately $12.3 million and
$58.7 million at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively, were
pledged to secure FHLB advances and public deposits as required by law.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
----------------------------

Mortgage loans held for sale were $577 million at March 31, 2001, an increase of
$192 million, or 50%,  from $385 million at December 31, 2000.  The increase was
primarily due to an increase in residential mortgage loan closings during the
first quarter of 2001 over the fourth quarter of 2000 (loans closed generally
remain in loans held for sale for 30 to 60 days after closing).

                                       13

Portfolio Loans
---------------

Total portfolio loans were $3.63 billion at March 31, 2001, a decrease of $140
million, or 4%, from $3.77 billion at December 31, 2000.  The decrease was due
to decreases in the residential real estate mortgage loan and consumer indirect
loan portfolios which were partially offset by an increase in the commercial
loan balance.  The residential mortgage portfolio loan balance decreased $146
million, or 7%, since year-end 2000 to $1.82 billion at March 31, 2001.  The
decrease in residential mortgage loans was due to the significant increase of
loans being refinanced from the residential mortgage loan portfolio.  The
Company refinanced a significant portion of these mortgage portfolio loans,
which are subsequently reflected as loans held for sale.

The installment loan portfolio decreased $67 million during the first three
months of 2001 due primarily to loan sales and runoff from the indirect consumer
loan portfolio.  During the first quarter, the Company sold $39 million of
indirect marine and RV loans.  There was no material gain on the sale.  The
direct consumer loan portfolio remained consistent with the $459 million balance
at December 31, 2000.

The commercial portfolio loan balance increased $73 million during the first
three months of 2001, for an annualized growth rate of 26%, reflecting continued
strong demand for real estate-secured lending in markets served by the Company.
During the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company closed $5.4
million and $7.8 million in Small Business Administration (SBA) loans,
respectively. The Company sold $1.6 million and $756,000 of the guaranteed
portion of SBA loans in the first three months of 2001 and 2000, respectively,
resulting in corresponding gains of $40,000 and $49,000, respectively.

Credit Quality
--------------

The Company attempts to minimize credit risk in the loan portfolio by focusing
primarily on  real estate-secured lending (i.e., commercial real estate mortgage
loans, commercial real estate construction loans, residential real estate
mortgage loans, residential real estate construction loans, and home equity
loans).  As of March 31, 2001, such loans comprised approximately 92% of total
portfolio loans.  The Company's general policy is to originate conventional
residential real estate mortgages with loan-to-value ratios of 80% or less and
SBA-secured loans or real estate-secured commercial loans with loan-to-value
ratios of 75% or less and secured by personal guarantees.

                                       14
<PAGE>

The substantial majority of the Company's residential mortgage loan production
is underwritten in compliance with the requirements for sale to or conversion to
mortgage-backed securities issued by Freddie Mac, the  Federal National Mortgage
Association (FNMA), or the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA).  The
majority of the Company's commercial loans is secured by real estate and is
generally made to small and medium-size businesses.  These loans are made at
rates based on the prevailing prime interest rates of Republic Bank, as well as
fixed rates for terms generally ranging from three to five years. Management's
emphasis on real estate-secured lending and adherence to conservative
underwriting standards is reflected in the Company's historically low net
charge-offs.

Non-Performing Assets
---------------------

Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans and other real estate owned
(OREO).  OREO represents real estate properties acquired through foreclosure or
by deed in lieu of foreclosure.  Commercial loans, residential real estate
mortgage loans and installment loans are generally placed on non-accrual status
when principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the loans are
well-secured and in the process of collection.  In all cases, loans may be
placed on non-accrual status earlier when, in the opinion of management,
reasonable doubt exists as to the full, timely collection of interest or
principal.

The following table summarizes the Company's non-performing assets and 90-day
past due loans:

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
---------------------------------------

The allowance for loan losses represents the Company's estimate of probable
credit losses related to specifically identified loans as well as probable
credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio that have been
incurred as of the balance sheet date.  The allowance for loan losses is
maintained at an adequate level through

                                       15
<PAGE>

additions to the provision for loan losses. An appropriate level of the general
allowance is determined based on the application of projected risk percentages
to graded loans by categories. In addition, specific reserves are established
for individual loans when deemed necessary by management. Management also
considers other factors when determining the unallocated allowance, including
loan quality, changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio,
consultation with regulatory authorities, amount of nonperforming loans,
delinquency trends and economic conditions and industry trends.

SFAS No. 114, Accounting By Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by
SFAS No. 118, considers a loan impaired when it is probable that payment of
principal and interest will not be collected in accordance with the contractual
terms of the original loan agreement.  Consistent with this definition, all non-
accrual and restructured loans (with the exception of residential mortgage and
consumer installment loans) are impaired.  An impaired loan for which it is
deemed necessary to record a specific allowance is, typically, written down to
the fair value of the underlying collateral at the time it is placed in non-
accrual status via a direct charge-off against the allowance for loan losses.
Consequently, those impaired loans not requiring a specific allowance represent
loans for which the fair value of the underlying collateral equaled or exceeded
the recorded investment in the loan.  All impaired loans were evaluated using
the fair value of the underlying collateral as the measurement method.

It must be understood, however, that inherent risks and uncertainties related to
the operation of a financial institution require management to depend on
estimates, appraisals and evaluations of loans to prepare the Company's
financial statements.  Changes in economic conditions and the financial
prospects of borrowers may result in abrupt changes to the estimates, appraisals
or evaluations used.  In addition, if actual circumstances and losses differ
substantially from management's assumptions and estimates, the allowance for
loan losses may not be sufficient to absorb all future losses, and net income
could be significantly impacted.

Gross loan charge-offs increased $900,000 to $2.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 compared to $1.1 million for the same period of 2000.  The
increase is primarily related to charge-offs of certain commercial loans during
the first quarter of 2001.  The Company recorded provision for loan losses of
$2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to $1.6 million
for 2000.

The following table provides an analysis of the allowance for loan losses:

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments
-----------------------------

At March 31, 2001, the Company had outstanding $599 million of commitments to
fund residential real estate loan applications with agreed-upon rates (Interest
Rate Lock Commitments).  Interest Rate Lock Commitments and holding residential
mortgage loans for sale to the secondary market exposes the Company to interest
rate risk during the period from application to when the loan is sold to the
investors.  To minimize this exposure to interest rate risk, the Company enters
into firm commitments to sell such mortgage loans and Interest Rate Lock
Commitments at specified future dates to various third parties.

At March 31, 2001, the Company had outstanding mandatory forward commitments to
sell $1.03 billion of residential mortgage loans, of which $538 million covered
mortgage loans held for sale and $496 million covered Interest Rate Lock
Commitments. These outstanding forward commitments to sell mortgage loans are
expected to settle in the second quarter of 2001 without producing any material
gains or losses.  At March 31, 2001, the mortgage loans held for sale balance
included $39 million of loan products for which the Company did not enter into
mandatory forward commitments.  The Company's exposure to market risk was not
significantly increased, however, since these loans had been committed for bulk
sale to third parties prior to March 31, 2001 or were floating rate residential
loans.

The Company implemented FAS 133, as amended effective January 1, 2001.  The
cumulative effect of the adoption of FAS 133 was not material.  For the quarter
ended March 31, 2001, the Company's hedging policies using mandatory forward
commitments, as they relate to Interest Rate Lock Commitments and mortgage loans
held for sale, were highly effective.  Therefore, FAS 133's impact on net income
was immaterial.

LIABILITIES
-----------
Total liabilities were $4.35 billion at March 31, 2001, a $62 million, or 1%
increase from $4.29 billion at December 31, 2000.  This increase was primarily
due to an increase in deposits.

Deposits
--------

Total deposits increased $102 million, or 4%, to $2.83 billion at March 31, 2001
from $2.73 billion at December 31, 2000.  Noninterest bearing deposits increased
$35 million for the quarter, while savings and money market accounts increased
$81 million.

Short-Term Borrowings

FHLB Advances
-------------
Republic Bank routinely borrows short- and long-term advances from the Federal
Home Loan Bank (FHLB) to fund mortgage loan originations and to minimize the
interest rate risk associated with certain fixed rate commercial and residential
mortgage portfolio loans and investment securities.  These advances are
generally secured under a blanket security agreement by first mortgage loans
with an aggregate book value equal to at least 145% of the advances.

FHLB advances outstanding at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, were as

CAPITAL
-------
Shareholders' equity was $292 million at March 31, 2001, a $3 million, or 1%,
decrease from $295 million at December 31, 2000.  This decrease primarily
resulted from the payment of cash dividends and the repurchase of 113,000 shares
of common stock during the first three months of 2001.

The Company is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by
federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have an effect on the
Company's financial statements.  Capital adequacy guidelines require minimum
capital ratios of 8.00% for Total risk-based capital, 4.00% for Tier 1 risk-
based capital and 3.00% for Tier 1 leverage.  To be considered well-capitalized
under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, minimum capital
ratios of 10.00% for Total risk-based capital, 6.00% for Tier 1 risk-based
capital and 5.00% for Tier 1 leverage must be maintained.

As of March 31, 2001, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which
it is subject and management does not anticipate any difficulty in meeting these
requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company's capital ratios were as follows:

As of March 31, 2001, the Company's total risk-based capital was $335 million
and Tier 1 risk-based capital was $306 million, an excess of $17 million and
$115 million, respectively, over the minimum guidelines prescribed by regulatory
agencies for a well-capitalized institution.  In addition, Republic Bank had
regulatory capital ratios in excess of the minimum levels established for well-
capitalized institutions.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
--------------------------
The section that follows entitled "Market Risk Management" contains certain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements involve certain
risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions by management, which may cause
actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such statements.

MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
----------------------
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value
of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, foreign exchange
rates and equity prices.  The Company's market risk exposure is composed
entirely of interest rate risk.  Interest rate risk arises in the normal course
of business to the extent that there is a difference between the amount of the
Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that are
prepaid/withdrawn, reprice or mature in specified periods.

The primary objective of asset and liability management is to maintain stability
in the level of net interest income by producing the optimal yield and maturity
mix of assets and liabilities within the interest rate risk limits set by the
Company's Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) and consistent with
projected liquidity needs and capital adequacy requirements.

The Company's ALCO, which meets weekly, is responsible for reviewing the
interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to
monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. Senior management at each of
the Company's subsidiaries is responsible for ensuring that the subsidiary asset
and liability management procedures adhere to corporate policies and risk limits
established by its respective board of directors.

The Company utilizes two complementary quantitative tools to measure and monitor
interest rate risk: static gap analysis and earnings simulation modeling. Each
of these interest rate risk measurements has limitations, but when evaluated
together, they provide a reasonably comprehensive view of the exposure the
Company has to interest rate risk.

Static Gap Analysis: Static gap analysis is utilized at the end of each month to
measure the amount of interest rate risk embedded in the balance sheet as of a
point in time.  It does this by comparing the differences in the repricing
characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  A
gap is defined as the difference between the principal amount of interest-
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that reprice within a specified
time period.  This gap provides a general indication of the sensitivity of the
Company's net interest income to interest rate changes.  Consequently, if more
assets than liabilities reprice or mature in a given period, resulting in an
asset sensitive position or positive gap, increases in market interest rates
will generally benefit net interest income because earning asset rates will
reflect the changes more quickly.  Alternatively, where interest-bearing
liabilities reprice more quickly than interest-earning assets, resulting in a
liability sensitive position or negative gap, increases in market interest rates
will generally have an adverse impact on net interest income.  At March 31,
2001, the Company's cumulative one-year gap was a positive 2.43% of total
earning assets.

                                       19
<PAGE>

The Company's current policy is to maintain a mix of asset and liabilities with
repricing and maturity characteristics that permit a moderate amount of short-
term interest rate risk based on current interest rate projections, customer
credit demands and deposit preferences.  The Company generally operates in a
range of plus or minus 10% of total earning assets for the cumulative one-year
gap.  Management believes that this range reduces the vulnerability of net
interest income to large shifts in market interest rates while allowing the
Company to take advantage of fluctuations in current short-term rates.

Earnings Simulation Modeling: On a quarterly basis, the earnings simulation
model is used to quantify the effects of various hypothetical changes in
interest rates on the Company's projected net interest income over the ensuing
twelve-month period.  The model permits management to evaluate the effects of
various parallel shifts of the U.S. Treasury yield curve, upward and downward,
on net interest income expected in a stable interest rate environment (i.e.,
base net interest income).

As of March 31, 2001, the earnings simulation model projects net interest income
would decrease by 8% of base net interest income, assuming an immediate parallel
shift upward in market interest rates by 200 basis points.  If market interest
rates fall by 200 basis points, the model projects net interest income would
increase by 8%. These projected levels are well within the Company's policy
limits. The earnings simulation model assumes that current balance sheet totals
remain constant and all maturities and prepayments of interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities are reinvested at current market rates.

         are parties to certain routine litigation. In the opinion of
         management, the aggregate liabilities, if any, arising from such legal
         proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
         consolidated financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

(1)  Net interest income for the mortgage banking segment is generated from the
interest earned on mortgage loans held for sale, less the interest expense
incurred on short-term borrowings used to fund loan production and servicing
acquisitions.  The Company's internal funds transfer pricing charges the
mortgage banking segment an interest rate based on its overall cost of funds for
the loans held for sale balances and an interest rate based on the prime rate to
fund its servicing portfolio and operations.

(2) Excludes impact of $19.0 million charge related to the exit of the
residential mortgage servicing business.

Note 7 - Subsequent Event
         ----------------

On April 16, 2001, the Company announced that it had executed a definitive
agreement for the sale of Market Street Mortgage Corporation for $20 million in
cash and stock to NetBank, Inc.  Market Street Mortgage, headquartered in
Clearwater, Florida, is a retail mortgage lender with 42 offices in 11 states.
The sale is expected to close later in the second quarter, subject to regulatory
approvals.  Based upon the current stock price of NetBank, the Company expects
to record a gain of approximately $12-$14 million, which is net of transaction
costs and closing adjustments.  In conjunction with the sale of Market Street
Mortgage, the Company is separately selling its $1.8 billion mortgage servicing
portfolio and exiting the servicing business.

Note 8 - Accounting and Financial Reporting Developments
         -----------------------------------------------

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which was amended
in June 1999 by Statement No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133,
and in June 2000 by Statement No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative
Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities and is required to be adopted by the
Company in years beginning after June 15, 2000.  The Statement requires
companies to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.
Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income.
If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in
the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair
value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or
recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in
earnings.  The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will
be immediately recognized in earnings.

The Company implemented FAS 133, as amended effective January 1, 2001.  The
cumulative effect of the adoption of FAS 133 was not material.  For the quarter
ended March 31, 2001, the Company's hedging policies using mandatory forward
commitments, as they relate to Interest Rate Lock Commitments and mortgage loans
held for sale, were highly effective.  Therefore, FAS 133's impact on net income
was immaterial.

ITEM 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

EARNINGS PERFORMANCE
--------------------

The Company reported record net operating income for the quarter ended March 31,
2001 of $13.1 million, a 16% increase over the $11.3 million earned in the first
quarter of 2000.  Diluted operating earnings per share for the first quarter of
2001 were $.26, an increase of 17% over the $.22 earned in 2000.  Annualized
operating returns on average assets and shareholders' equity for the first three
months of 2001 were 1.13% and 16.75%, respectively.

To better understand underlying trends and performance, net operating earnings
for the first quarter of 2001 exclude $19.0 million of pre-tax charges related
to the exit of the Company's residential mortgage servicing business.  These
charges include a write-down of mortgage servicing rights of $16.1 million,
transaction costs associated with the servicing portfolio sale of approximately
$2.0 million and costs associated with winding down the servicing operation of
approximately $900,000.  Severance and employee benefit accruals were
immaterial.  The sale and related wind down of the loan servicing operation is
expected to take place during the second and third quarter of 2001.  The accrued
expenses for these items will be utilized during the same period.  Including
these charges, the Company reported net income for the quarter of $799,000 or
$.02 per share.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

Mortgage Banking

The following discussion provides information that relates specifically to the
Company's mortgage banking line of business, which generates revenue from
mortgage loan production and mortgage loan servicing activities.  Mortgage
banking revenue represents the largest component of the Company's total
noninterest income.

The Company closed $1.4 billion in single-family residential mortgage loans in
the first quarter of 2001, up 60% compared to $851 million closed in the same
period last year.  Mortgage loan volumes during 2001 increased primarily due to
the declining interest rate environment which has resulted in a higher level of
mortgage refinance activity.  Refinancings for the first quarter of 2001
represented approximately 54% of total closings compared to 12% in the first
quarter of 2000.

                                       9
The following table summarizes the Company's income from mortgage banking
activities:

(1) Includes fee revenue derived from the loan origination process (i.e.,
    points collected), gains on the sale of mortgage loans and the related
    mortgage servicing rights released concurrently with the underlying loans
    sold, net of commissions and incentives paid of $7.2 million and $3.8
    million for 2001 and 2000, respectively.
(2) Includes servicing fees, late fees and other ancillary charges, net of
    amortization of mortgage servicing rights.

For the three months ended March 31, 2001, mortgage banking revenue decreased
$2.2 million, or 12%, to $16.5 million from $18.7 million a year earlier.  The
decrease is primarily the result of decreases in net mortgage loan servicing
revenue of $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2000 and no
gain on the bulk sales of mortgage servicing rights in 2001 compared to $1.1
million in 2000.  These decreases were off set by a $1.9 million or 13% increase
in mortgage production revenue.  The increase in mortgage loan production
revenue was primarily a result of higher mortgage loan production and the
resulting sales of loans in the secondary market.  Total loans sold during the
quarter were $1.1 billion compared to $768 million during the first quarter of
2000.  The ratio of mortgage production revenue to mortgage loans sold was 2.14%
in the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2.41% in the first quarter of 2000.

Net mortgage loan servicing revenue was a net loss of $199,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2001 compared to a revenue of $2.9 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000.  The decrease in revenue reflects an increase in amortization of
mortgage servicing rights of $1.6 million from the first quarter of 2000 to $3.4
million during the first quarter of 2001.  The increase in amortization expense
was the result of the increase in residential mortgage loan refinance activity
during 2001 and corresponding increase in mortgage prepayments of the Company's
servicing portfolio.  The decrease in net mortgage loan servicing revenue also
reflects a reduction in the average mortgage loan servicing portfolio as loans
serviced for others averaged $2.1 billion for the first quarter of 2001 compared
to $2.9 billion for 2000.

As discussed earlier, at the end of the first quarter of 2001 the Company
elected to exit the residential mortgage servicing business.  Mortgage servicing
rights were reduced by $16.1 million at March 31, 2001 to reflect the current
market value of the servicing portfolio.  A sale agreement regarding Market
Street's mortgage servicing portfolio was subsequently signed in April 2001 with
an unaffiliated company.  The significant decrease in the value of the servicing
portfolio from December 31, 2000 was a result of dramatic increases in the
prepayment speed assumption (PSA) during the first quarter of 2001, as well as
an over 120 basis points decrease in the earnings rate received on escrow
balances.  These changes were a result of the decline in short-term interest
rates occurring during the quarter due to the Federal Reserve Board's action to
lower the federal funds rate.  The impairment reserve on the Company's mortgage
servicing rights balance at December 31, 2000 was $6.6 million.

The Company expects to sell all mortgage servicing rights concurrently with the
sale of the underlying loans.  The Company did not have any bulk sales of
mortgage servicing rights in the first three months of 2001.  In the first
quarter of 2000, bulk sales of mortgage servicing rights with principal balances
of $361 million, resulted in a gain of $1.1 million.

Commercial and Retail Banking

The remaining disclosures and analyses within Management's Discussion and
Analysis regarding the Company's results of operations and financial condition
relate principally to the commercial and retail banking line of business.

Net Interest Income
-------------------

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Tables I on the
following page, which provides detailed analyses of the components impacting net
interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis, was $34.2
million for the first quarter of 2001 compared to $32.7 million for the first
quarter of 2000.  The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the
Company's average interest-earning assets of $362 million.  The average
portfolio loan balance increased $307 million, or 9% during the first quarter of
2001 compared to 2000.  This increase reflects a $256 million, or 28% increase
in average commercial loans, a $122 million, or 7% increase in residential real
estate mortgage loans, net of a $71 million, or 10% decrease in installment
loans.  In addition, the average balance of mortgage loans held for sale
increased $66 million, or 15% for the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2000.
Funding the growth in portfolio loans and mortgage loans held for sale were
increases in the Company's savings and time deposits and FHLB advances.

The net interest margin (FTE) was 3.12% for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, a
decrease of 9 basis points from 3.21% in 2000.  The decrease in the margin was
due to the increase in the Company's cost of funds for the first quarter of 2001
exceeding the increase in the interest yield on earning assets.

Noninterest Expense
-------------------

Excluding the $19.0 million of charges related to the exit of its residential
mortgage servicing business, total non-interest expense for the quarter ended
March 31, 2001 decreased $4.4 million, or 13%, to $30.4 million compared to
$34.8 million for the first quarter of 2000.  The decrease is primarily the
result of decreases in salaries and employee benefits and other noninterest
expense.  These decreases reflect cost savings associated with the integration
of D&N Bank and Republic Banc Mortgage Corporation into Republic Bank which took
place in December 2000.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
----------------------

ASSETS
------
At March 31, 2001, the Company had $4.67 billion in total assets, an increase of
$59 million, or 1%, from $4.61  billion at December 31, 2000.  The increase is
primarily the result of increases in the Company's mortgage loans held for sale
and commercial loans.

Securities
----------

Investment securities available for sale decreased $3 million, to $209 million,
representing 4.5% of total assets at March 31, 2001.  At December 31, 2000, the
investment securities portfolio totaled $212 million, or 4.6% of total assets.
During the first three months of 2001, the company sold $80.3 million of
investment securities and realized gross gains and losses on the sales of
available for sale securities of $371,000 and $4,000, respectively.

The Company's investment securities portfolio, while serving as a source of
earnings and liquidity risk, carries relatively minimal principal risk and
contributes to the management of interest rate risk.  The portfolio is comprised
primarily of municipal securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.  The
Company's equity securities portfolio consists primarily of Federal Home Loan
Bank stock.

The following table details the composition, amortized cost and fair value of
the Company's investment securities portfolio at March 31, 2001:

Certain securities having a carrying value of approximately $12.3 million and
$58.7 million at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively, were
pledged to secure FHLB advances and public deposits as required by law.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
----------------------------

Mortgage loans held for sale were $577 million at March 31, 2001, an increase of
$192 million, or 50%,  from $385 million at December 31, 2000.  The increase was
primarily due to an increase in residential mortgage loan closings during the
first quarter of 2001 over the fourth quarter of 2000 (loans closed generally
remain in loans held for sale for 30 to 60 days after closing).

                                       13
Portfolio Loans
---------------

Total portfolio loans were $3.63 billion at March 31, 2001, a decrease of $140
million, or 4%, from $3.77 billion at December 31, 2000.  The decrease was due
to decreases in the residential real estate mortgage loan and consumer indirect
loan portfolios which were partially offset by an increase in the commercial
loan balance.  The residential mortgage portfolio loan balance decreased $146
million, or 7%, since year-end 2000 to $1.82 billion at March 31, 2001.  The
decrease in residential mortgage loans was due to the significant increase of
loans being refinanced from the residential mortgage loan portfolio.  The
Company refinanced a significant portion of these mortgage portfolio loans,
which are subsequently reflected as loans held for sale.

The installment loan portfolio decreased $67 million during the first three
months of 2001 due primarily to loan sales and runoff from the indirect consumer
loan portfolio.  During the first quarter, the Company sold $39 million of
indirect marine and RV loans.  There was no material gain on the sale.  The
direct consumer loan portfolio remained consistent with the $459 million balance
at December 31, 2000.

The commercial portfolio loan balance increased $73 million during the first
three months of 2001, for an annualized growth rate of 26%, reflecting continued
strong demand for real estate-secured lending in markets served by the Company.
During the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company closed $5.4
million and $7.8 million in Small Business Administration (SBA) loans,
respectively. The Company sold $1.6 million and $756,000 of the guaranteed
portion of SBA loans in the first three months of 2001 and 2000, respectively,
resulting in corresponding gains of $40,000 and $49,000, respectively.

Credit Quality
--------------

The Company attempts to minimize credit risk in the loan portfolio by focusing
primarily on  real estate-secured lending (i.e., commercial real estate mortgage
loans, commercial real estate construction loans, residential real estate
mortgage loans, residential real estate construction loans, and home equity
loans).  As of March 31, 2001, such loans comprised approximately 92% of total
portfolio loans.  The Company's general policy is to originate conventional
residential real estate mortgages with loan-to-value ratios of 80% or less and
SBA-secured loans or real estate-secured commercial loans with loan-to-value
ratios of 75% or less and secured by personal guarantees.

                                       14
The substantial majority of the Company's residential mortgage loan production
is underwritten in compliance with the requirements for sale to or conversion to
mortgage-backed securities issued by Freddie Mac, the  Federal National Mortgage
Association (FNMA), or the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA).  The
majority of the Company's commercial loans is secured by real estate and is
generally made to small and medium-size businesses.  These loans are made at
rates based on the prevailing prime interest rates of Republic Bank, as well as
fixed rates for terms generally ranging from three to five years. Management's
emphasis on real estate-secured lending and adherence to conservative
underwriting standards is reflected in the Company's historically low net
charge-offs.

Non-Performing Assets
---------------------

Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans and other real estate owned
(OREO).  OREO represents real estate properties acquired through foreclosure or
by deed in lieu of foreclosure.  Commercial loans, residential real estate
mortgage loans and installment loans are generally placed on non-accrual status
when principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the loans are
well-secured and in the process of collection.  In all cases, loans may be
placed on non-accrual status earlier when, in the opinion of management,
reasonable doubt exists as to the full, timely collection of interest or
principal.

The following table summarizes the Company's non-performing assets and 90-day
past due loans:

At March 31, 2001, approximately $37.1 million, or .88% of total loans were 30-
89 days delinquent, compared to $45.2 million, or 1.09%, at December 31, 2000.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
---------------------------------------

The allowance for loan losses represents the Company's estimate of probable
credit losses related to specifically identified loans as well as probable
credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio that have been
incurred as of the balance sheet date.  The allowance for loan losses is
maintained at an adequate level through

                                       15
additions to the provision for loan losses. An appropriate level of the general
allowance is determined based on the application of projected risk percentages
to graded loans by categories. In addition, specific reserves are established
for individual loans when deemed necessary by management. Management also
considers other factors when determining the unallocated allowance, including
loan quality, changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio,
consultation with regulatory authorities, amount of nonperforming loans,
delinquency trends and economic conditions and industry trends.

SFAS No. 114, Accounting By Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by
SFAS No. 118, considers a loan impaired when it is probable that payment of
principal and interest will not be collected in accordance with the contractual
terms of the original loan agreement.  Consistent with this definition, all non-
accrual and restructured loans (with the exception of residential mortgage and
consumer installment loans) are impaired.  An impaired loan for which it is
deemed necessary to record a specific allowance is, typically, written down to
the fair value of the underlying collateral at the time it is placed in non-
accrual status via a direct charge-off against the allowance for loan losses.
Consequently, those impaired loans not requiring a specific allowance represent
loans for which the fair value of the underlying collateral equaled or exceeded
the recorded investment in the loan.  All impaired loans were evaluated using
the fair value of the underlying collateral as the measurement method.

It must be understood, however, that inherent risks and uncertainties related to
the operation of a financial institution require management to depend on
estimates, appraisals and evaluations of loans to prepare the Company's
financial statements.  Changes in economic conditions and the financial
prospects of borrowers may result in abrupt changes to the estimates, appraisals
or evaluations used.  In addition, if actual circumstances and losses differ
substantially from management's assumptions and estimates, the allowance for
loan losses may not be sufficient to absorb all future losses, and net income
could be significantly impacted.

Gross loan charge-offs increased $900,000 to $2.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 compared to $1.1 million for the same period of 2000.  The
increase is primarily related to charge-offs of certain commercial loans during
the first quarter of 2001.  The Company recorded provision for loan losses of
$2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to $1.6 million
for 2000.

The following table provides an analysis of the allowance for loan losses:

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments
-----------------------------

At March 31, 2001, the Company had outstanding $599 million of commitments to
fund residential real estate loan applications with agreed-upon rates (Interest
Rate Lock Commitments).  Interest Rate Lock Commitments and holding residential
mortgage loans for sale to the secondary market exposes the Company to interest
rate risk during the period from application to when the loan is sold to the
investors.  To minimize this exposure to interest rate risk, the Company enters
into firm commitments to sell such mortgage loans and Interest Rate Lock
Commitments at specified future dates to various third parties.

At March 31, 2001, the Company had outstanding mandatory forward commitments to
sell $1.03 billion of residential mortgage loans, of which $538 million covered
mortgage loans held for sale and $496 million covered Interest Rate Lock
Commitments. These outstanding forward commitments to sell mortgage loans are
expected to settle in the second quarter of 2001 without producing any material
gains or losses.  At March 31, 2001, the mortgage loans held for sale balance
included $39 million of loan products for which the Company did not enter into
mandatory forward commitments.  The Company's exposure to market risk was not
significantly increased, however, since these loans had been committed for bulk
sale to third parties prior to March 31, 2001 or were floating rate residential
loans.

The Company implemented FAS 133, as amended effective January 1, 2001.  The
cumulative effect of the adoption of FAS 133 was not material.  For the quarter
ended March 31, 2001, the Company's hedging policies using mandatory forward
commitments, as they relate to Interest Rate Lock Commitments and mortgage loans
held for sale, were highly effective.  Therefore, FAS 133's impact on net income
was immaterial.

LIABILITIES
-----------
Total liabilities were $4.35 billion at March 31, 2001, a $62 million, or 1%
increase from $4.29 billion at December 31, 2000.  This increase was primarily
due to an increase in deposits.

Deposits
--------

Total deposits increased $102 million, or 4%, to $2.83 billion at March 31, 2001
from $2.73 billion at December 31, 2000.  Noninterest bearing deposits increased
$35 million for the quarter, while savings and money market accounts increased
$81 million.

FHLB Advances
-------------
Republic Bank routinely borrows short- and long-term advances from the Federal
Home Loan Bank (FHLB) to fund mortgage loan originations and to minimize the
interest rate risk associated with certain fixed rate commercial and residential
mortgage portfolio loans and investment securities.  These advances are
generally secured under a blanket security agreement by first mortgage loans
with an aggregate book value equal to at least 145% of the advances.

FHLB advances outstanding at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, were as

CAPITAL
-------
Shareholders' equity was $292 million at March 31, 2001, a $3 million, or 1%,
decrease from $295 million at December 31, 2000.  This decrease primarily
resulted from the payment of cash dividends and the repurchase of 113,000 shares
of common stock during the first three months of 2001.

The Company is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by
federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have an effect on the
Company's financial statements.  Capital adequacy guidelines require minimum
capital ratios of 8.00% for Total risk-based capital, 4.00% for Tier 1 risk-
based capital and 3.00% for Tier 1 leverage.  To be considered well-capitalized
under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, minimum capital
ratios of 10.00% for Total risk-based capital, 6.00% for Tier 1 risk-based
capital and 5.00% for Tier 1 leverage must be maintained.

As of March 31, 2001, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which
it is subject and management does not anticipate any difficulty in meeting these
requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company's capital ratios were as follows:
March 31,   December 31,

As of March 31, 2001, the Company's total risk-based capital was $335 million
and Tier 1 risk-based capital was $306 million, an excess of $17 million and
$115 million, respectively, over the minimum guidelines prescribed by regulatory
agencies for a well-capitalized institution.  In addition, Republic Bank had
regulatory capital ratios in excess of the minimum levels established for well-
capitalized institutions.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
--------------------------
The section that follows entitled "Market Risk Management" contains certain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements involve certain
risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions by management, which may cause
actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such statements.

MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
----------------------
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value
of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, foreign exchange
rates and equity prices.  The Company's market risk exposure is composed
entirely of interest rate risk.  Interest rate risk arises in the normal course
of business to the extent that there is a difference between the amount of the
Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that are
prepaid/withdrawn, reprice or mature in specified periods.

The primary objective of asset and liability management is to maintain stability
in the level of net interest income by producing the optimal yield and maturity
mix of assets and liabilities within the interest rate risk limits set by the
Company's Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) and consistent with
projected liquidity needs and capital adequacy requirements.

The Company's ALCO, which meets weekly, is responsible for reviewing the
interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to
monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. Senior management at each of
the Company's subsidiaries is responsible for ensuring that the subsidiary asset
and liability management procedures adhere to corporate policies and risk limits
established by its respective board of directors.

The Company utilizes two complementary quantitative tools to measure and monitor
interest rate risk: static gap analysis and earnings simulation modeling. Each
of these interest rate risk measurements has limitations, but when evaluated
together, they provide a reasonably comprehensive view of the exposure the
Company has to interest rate risk.

Static Gap Analysis: Static gap analysis is utilized at the end of each month to
measure the amount of interest rate risk embedded in the balance sheet as of a
point in time.  It does this by comparing the differences in the repricing
characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  A
gap is defined as the difference between the principal amount of interest-
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that reprice within a specified
time period.  This gap provides a general indication of the sensitivity of the
Company's net interest income to interest rate changes.  Consequently, if more
assets than liabilities reprice or mature in a given period, resulting in an
asset sensitive position or positive gap, increases in market interest rates
will generally benefit net interest income because earning asset rates will
reflect the changes more quickly.  Alternatively, where interest-bearing
liabilities reprice more quickly than interest-earning assets, resulting in a
liability sensitive position or negative gap, increases in market interest rates
will generally have an adverse impact on net interest income.  At March 31,
2001, the Company's cumulative one-year gap was a positive 2.43% of total
earning assets.

                                       19
The Company's current policy is to maintain a mix of asset and liabilities with
repricing and maturity characteristics that permit a moderate amount of short-
term interest rate risk based on current interest rate projections, customer
credit demands and deposit preferences.  The Company generally operates in a
range of plus or minus 10% of total earning assets for the cumulative one-year
gap.  Management believes that this range reduces the vulnerability of net
interest income to large shifts in market interest rates while allowing the
Company to take advantage of fluctuations in current short-term rates.

Earnings Simulation Modeling: On a quarterly basis, the earnings simulation
model is used to quantify the effects of various hypothetical changes in
interest rates on the Company's projected net interest income over the ensuing
twelve-month period.  The model permits management to evaluate the effects of
various parallel shifts of the U.S. Treasury yield curve, upward and downward,
on net interest income expected in a stable interest rate environment (i.e.,
base net interest income).

As of March 31, 2001, the earnings simulation model projects net interest income
would decrease by 8% of base net interest income, assuming an immediate parallel
shift upward in market interest rates by 200 basis points.  If market interest
rates fall by 200 basis points, the model projects net interest income would
increase by 8%. These projected levels are well within the Company's policy
limits. The earnings simulation model assumes that current balance sheet totals
remain constant and all maturities and prepayments of interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities are reinvested at current market rates.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
         -----------------

         In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries
