<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mercantile Bank Corporation is a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended (the &#147;Bank Holding Company Act&#148;). Unless the text clearly suggests
otherwise, references to &#147;us,&#148; &#147;we,&#148; &#147;our,&#148; or &#147;the company&#148; include Mercantile Bank Corporation
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. As a bank holding company, we are subject to regulation by the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the &#147;Federal Reserve Board&#148;). We were organized
on July&nbsp;15, 1997, under the laws of the State of Michigan, primarily for the purpose of holding all
of the stock of Mercantile Bank of Michigan (&#147;our bank&#148;), and of such other subsidiaries as we may
acquire or establish. Our bank commenced business on December&nbsp;15, 1997.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company initiated business in October&nbsp;2000 as a subsidiary of our
bank, and was reorganized as Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, LLC (&#147;our mortgage company&#148;), on
January&nbsp;1, 2004. Mercantile Insurance Center, Inc. (&#147;our insurance company&#148;), a subsidiary of our
bank, commenced operations during 2002 to offer insurance products. Mercantile Bank Real Estate
Co., L.L.C., (&#147;our real estate company&#148;), a subsidiary of our bank, was organized on July&nbsp;21, 2003,
principally to develop, construct and own our new facility in downtown Grand Rapids which serves as
our bank&#146;s new main office and Mercantile Bank Corporation&#146;s headquarters. Mercantile Bank Capital
Trust I (the &#147;Mercantile trust&#148;), a business trust subsidiary, was formed in September&nbsp;2004 to
issue trust preferred securities.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To date we have raised capital from our initial public offering of common stock in October
1997, a public offering of common stock in July&nbsp;1998, three private placements of common stock
during 2001, a public offering of common stock in August&nbsp;2001 and a public offering of common stock
in September&nbsp;2003. In addition, we raised capital through a public offering of $16.0&nbsp;million of
trust preferred securities in 1999, which was refinanced as part of a $32.0&nbsp;million private
placement of trust preferred securities in 2004. Our expenses have generally been paid using the
proceeds of the capital sales and dividends from our bank. Our principal source of future
operating funds is expected to be dividends from our bank.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We filed an election to become a financial holding company, pursuant to the Bank Holding
Company Act, as amended by Title I of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and implementing Federal Reserve
Board regulations, which election became effective March&nbsp;23, 2000.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our mortgage company&#146;s predecessor, Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, commenced operations on
October&nbsp;24, 2000, when our bank contributed most of its residential mortgage loan portfolio and
participation interests in certain commercial mortgage loans to Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company.
On the same date, our bank also transferred its residential mortgage origination function to
Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company. On January&nbsp;1, 2004, Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company was
reorganized as Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, LLC, a limited liability company, which is 99%
owned by our bank and 1% owned by our insurance company. The reorganization had no impact on the
company&#146;s financial position or results of operations. Mortgage loans originated and held by our
mortgage company are serviced by our bank pursuant to a servicing agreement.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2004, we formed the Mercantile trust, a Delaware business trust. Mercantile trust&#146;s
business and affairs are conducted by its property trustee, a Delaware trust company, and three
individual administrative trustees who are employees and officers of the company. Mercantile trust
was established for the purpose of issuing and selling its Series&nbsp;A and Series&nbsp;B trust preferred
securities and common securities, and used the proceeds from the sales of those securities to
acquire Series&nbsp;A and Series&nbsp;B Floating Rate Notes issued by the company. Substantially all of the
net proceeds received by the company from the Series&nbsp;A transaction were used to redeem the trust
preferred securities that had been issued by MBWM Capital Trust I in September&nbsp;1999. We
established MBWM Capital Trust I in 1999 to issue the trust preferred securities that were
redeemed. Substantially all of the net proceeds received by the company from the Series&nbsp;B
transaction were contributed to our bank as capital. The Series&nbsp;A and Series&nbsp;B Floating Rate Notes
are categorized on our consolidated financial statements as subordinated debentures. Additional
information regarding Mercantile trust is incorporated by reference to &#147;Note 15 &#150; Subordinated
Debentures&#148; and &#147;Note 16 &#150; Regulatory Matters&#148; of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our earnings are affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies
of the United States government, its agencies, and the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve
Board&#146;s monetary policies have had, and will likely continue to have, an important impact on the
operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement national monetary policy in
order to, among other things, curb inflation, maintain employment, and mitigate economic
recessions. The policies of the Federal Reserve Board have a major effect upon the levels of bank
loans, investments and deposits through its open market operations in United States government
securities, and through its regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowings of
member banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits. Our bank maintains
reserves directly with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago to the extent required by law. It is
not possible to predict the nature and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act, we are required to file an
annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and such additional information as the Federal Reserve
Board may require. We are also subject to examination by the Federal Reserve Board.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Bank Holding Company Act limits the activities of bank holding companies that have not
qualified as financial holding companies to banking and the management of banking organizations,
and to certain non-banking activities. These non-banking activities include those activities that
the Federal Reserve Board found, by order or regulation as of the day prior to enactment of the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident to banking.
These non-banking activities include, among other things: operating a mortgage company, finance
company, or factoring company; performing certain data processing operations; providing certain
investment and financial advice; acting as an insurance agent for certain types of credit-related
insurance; leasing property on a full-payout, nonoperating basis; and providing discount securities
brokerage services for customers. With the exception of the activities of our mortgage company
discussed above, neither we nor any of our subsidiaries engages in any of the non-banking
activities listed above.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In March&nbsp;2000, our election to become a financial holding company, as permitted by the Bank
Holding Company Act, as amended by Title I of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, was accepted by the
Federal Reserve Board. In order to continue as a financial holding company, we and our bank must
satisfy statutory requirements regarding capitalization, management, and compliance with the
Community Reinvestment Act. As a financial holding company, we are permitted to engage in a
broader range of activities than are permitted to bank holding companies.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Those expanded activities include any activity which the Federal Reserve Board (in certain
instances in consultation with the Department of the Treasury) determines, by order or regulation,
to be financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity, or to be complementary to a
financial activity and not to pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository
institutions or the financial system generally. Such expanded activities include, among others:
insuring, guaranteeing, or indemnifying against loss, harm, damage, illness, disability or death,
or issuing annuities, and acting as principal, agent, or broker for such purposes; providing
financial, investment, or economic advisory services, including advising a mutual fund; and
underwriting, dealing in, or making a market in securities. Other than the insurance agency
activities of our insurance company, neither we nor our subsidiaries presently engage in any of the
expanded activities.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our bank is subject to restrictions imposed by federal law and regulation. Among other
things, these restrictions apply to any extension of credit to us or to our other subsidiaries, to
investments in stock or other securities that we issue, to the taking of such stock or securities
as collateral for loans to any borrower, and to acquisitions of assets or services from, and sales
of certain types of assets to, us or our other subsidiaries. Federal law restricts our ability to
borrow from our bank by limiting the aggregate amount we may borrow and by requiring that all loans
to us be secured in designated amounts by specified forms of collateral.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With respect to the acquisition of banking organizations, we are generally required to obtain
the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before we can acquire all or substantially all of
the assets of any bank, or acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank or bank
holding company, if, after the acquisition, we would own or control more than 5% of the voting
shares of the bank or bank holding company. Acquisitions of banking organizations across state

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Lending Policy</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a routine part of our business, we make loans and leases to businesses and individuals
located within our market areas. Our lending policy states that the function of the lending
operation is twofold: to provide a means for the investment of funds at a profitable rate of return
with an acceptable degree of risk, and to meet the credit needs of the creditworthy businesses and
individuals who are our customers. We recognize that in the normal business of lending, some
losses on loans and leases will be inevitable and should be considered a part of the normal cost of
doing business.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our lending policy anticipates that priorities in extending loans and leases will be modified
from time to time as interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors change. The policy
sets forth guidelines on a nondiscriminatory basis for lending in accordance with applicable laws
and regulations. The policy describes various criteria for granting loans and leases, including
the ability to pay; the character of the customer; evidence of financial responsibility; purpose of
the loan or lease; knowledge of collateral and its value; terms of repayment; source of repayment;
payment history; and economic conditions.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The lending policy further limits the amount of funds that may be loaned or leased against
specified types of real estate collateral. For certain loans secured by real estate, the policy
requires an appraisal of the property offered as collateral by a state certified independent
appraiser. The policy also provides general guidelines for loan to value and lease to value limits
for other types of collateral, such as accounts receivable and machinery and equipment. In
addition, the policy provides general guidelines as to environmental analysis, loans to employees,
executive officers and directors, problem loan and lease identification, maintenance of an
allowance for loan and lease losses, loan and lease review and grading, mortgage and consumer
lending, and other matters relating to our lending practices.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board of Directors has delegated significant lending authority to officers of our bank.
The Board of Directors believes this empowerment, supported by our strong credit culture and the
significant experience of our commercial lending staff, makes us responsive to our customers. The
loan policy currently specifies lending authority for certain officers up to $3.0&nbsp;million, and
$10.0&nbsp;million for our bank&#146;s Chairman of the Board and its President and Chief Executive Officer;
however, the $10.0&nbsp;million lending authority is generally used only in rare circumstances where
timing is of the essence. Generally, loan requests exceeding $2.5&nbsp;million require approval by the
Officers Loan Committee, and loan requests exceeding $4.0&nbsp;million, up to the legal lending limit of
approximately $33.6&nbsp;million, require approval by the Board of Directors. In most circumstances, we
apply an in-house lending limit that is significantly less than our bank&#146;s legal lending limit.
</DIV>

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Commercial Loans. </I>Our commercial lending group originates commercial loans and leases
primarily in our market areas. Our commercial lenders have extensive commercial lending
experience, with most having at least ten years&#146; experience. Loans and leases are originated for
general business purposes, including working capital, accounts receivable financing, machinery and
equipment acquisition, and commercial real estate financing, including new construction and land
development.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Working capital loans are often structured as a line of credit and are reviewed periodically
in connection with the borrower&#146;s year-end financial reporting. These loans are generally secured
by substantially all of the assets of the borrower, and have an interest rate tied to the national
prime rate. Loans and leases for machinery and equipment purposes typically have a maturity of
three to five years and are fully amortizing, while commercial real estate loans are usually
written with a five-year maturity and amortize over a 15&nbsp;year period. Commercial loans and leases
typically have an interest rate that is fixed to maturity or is tied to the national prime rate.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We evaluate many aspects of a commercial loan or lease transaction in order to minimize credit
and interest rate risk. Underwriting includes an assessment of the management, products, markets,
cash flow, capital, income and collateral. This analysis includes a review of the borrower&#146;s
historical and projected financial results. Appraisals are generally required by certified
independent appraisers where real estate is the primary collateral, and in some cases, where
equipment is the primary collateral. In certain situations, for creditworthy customers, we may
accept title reports instead of requiring lenders&#146; policies of title insurance.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commercial real estate lending involves more risk than residential lending because loan
balances are greater and repayment is dependent upon the borrower&#146;s business operations. We
attempt to minimize the risks associated with these transactions by generally limiting our
commercial real estate lending to owner-operated properties of well-known customers or new
customers whose businesses have an established profitable history. In many cases, risk is further
reduced by limiting the amount of credit to any one borrower to an amount considerably less than
our legal lending limit and avoiding certain types of commercial real estate financings.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have no material foreign loans, and no material loans to energy producing customers. We
have only limited exposure to companies engaged in agricultural-related activities.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Single-Family Residential Real Estate Loans. </I>Our mortgage company originates single-family
residential real estate loans in our market area, usually according to secondary market
underwriting standards. Loans not conforming to those standards are made in limited circumstances.
Single-family residential real estate loans provide borrowers with a fixed or adjustable interest
rate with terms up to 30&nbsp;years.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our bank has a home equity line of credit program. Home equity credit is generally secured by
either a first or second mortgage on the borrower&#146;s primary residence. The program provides
revolving credit at a rate tied to the national prime rate.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Consumer Loans. </I>We originate consumer loans for a variety of personal financial needs,
including new and used automobiles, boat loans, credit cards and overdraft protection for our
checking account customers. Consumer loans generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates
and usually involve more credit risk than single-family residential real estate loans because of
the type and nature of the collateral.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe our consumer loans are underwritten carefully, with a strong emphasis on the amount
of the down payment, credit quality, employment stability and monthly income of the borrower.
These loans are generally repaid on a monthly repayment schedule with the source of repayment tied
to the borrower&#146;s periodic income. In addition, consumer lending collections are dependent on the
borrower&#146;s continuing financial stability, and are thus likely to be adversely affected by job
loss, illness and personal bankruptcy. In many cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted
consumer loan will not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance
because of depreciation of the underlying collateral.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that the generally higher yields earned on consumer loans compensate for the
increased credit risk associated with such loans, and that consumer loans are important to our
efforts to serve the credit needs of the communities and customers that we serve.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We utilize a comprehensive grading system for our commercial loans and leases as well as
residential mortgage and consumer loans. All commercial loans and leases are graded on a ten grade
rating system. The rating system utilizes standardized grade paradigms that analyze several
critical factors such as cash flow, management and collateral coverage. All commercial loans and
leases are graded at inception and reviewed at various intervals thereafter. Residential mortgage
and consumer loans are graded on a four grade rating system using a separate standardized grade
paradigm that analyzes several critical factors such as debt-to-income and credit and employment
histories. Residential mortgage and consumer loans are graded on a random sampling basis after the
loan has been made.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our independent loan and lease review program is primarily responsible for the administration
of the grading system and ensuring adherence to established lending policies and procedures. The
loan and lease review program is an integral part of maintaining our strong asset quality culture.
The loan and lease review function works closely with senior management, although it functionally
reports to the Board of Directors. All commercial loan and lease relationships equal to or
exceeding $1.8&nbsp;million are formally reviewed every twelve months, with a random sampling performed
on credits under $1.8&nbsp;million. Our watch list credits are reviewed monthly by our Watch List
Committee, which is comprised of personnel from the administration, lending and loan and lease
review functions.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loans and leases are placed in a nonaccrual status when, in our opinion, uncertainty exists as
to the ultimate collection of principal and interest. As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, loans and leases
placed in nonaccrual status totaled $7.8&nbsp;million, or 0.44% of total loans and leases. As of the
same date, loans and leases past due 90&nbsp;days or more and still accruing interest totaled $0.8
million, or 0.05% of total loans and leases. As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, there were no other
significant loans and leases where known information about credit problems of borrowers warranted
the placing of the loans or leases in a nonaccrual status. We are not aware of any potential
problem credits that could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, liquidity, or
capital resources.

the amount we believe is necessary to maintain the allowance at adequate levels. Through the loan
and lease review and credit departments, we attempt to allocate specific portions of the allowance
based on specifically identifiable problem loans and leases. The evaluation of the allowance is
further based on, but not limited to, consideration of the internally prepared Loan Loss Reserve
Analysis (&#147;Reserve Analysis&#148;), composition of the loan and lease portfolio, third party analysis of
the loan and lease administration processes and portfolio and general economic conditions. In
addition, the strong commercial loan and lease growth is taken into account.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Reserve Analysis, used since our inception and completed monthly, applies reserve
allocation factors to outstanding loan and lease balances to calculate an overall allowance dollar
amount. For commercial loans and leases, which continue to comprise a vast majority of our total
loans and leases, reserve allocation factors are based upon the loan ratings as determined by our
standardized grade paradigms. For retail loans, reserve allocation factors are based upon the type
of credit. Adjustments for specific lending relationships, including impaired loans and leases,
are made on a case-by-case basis. The reserve allocation factors are primarily based on the recent
levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets, the comparison of
the recent levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets with a
customized peer group consisting of ten similarly-sized publicly traded banking organizations
conducting business in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and/or Ohio, the review and
consideration of our loan migration analysis and the experience of senior management making similar

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The primary risks associated with commercial loans and leases are the financial condition of
the borrower, the sufficiency of collateral, and lack of timely payment. We have a policy of
requesting and reviewing periodic financial statements from our commercial loan and lease
customers, and periodically reviewing existence of collateral and its value. The primary risk
element that we consider for consumer and residential real estate loan is lack of timely payment.
We have a reporting system that monitors past due loans and have adopted policies to pursue our
creditor&#146;s rights in order to preserve our bank&#146;s collateral position.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Although we believe the allowance is adequate to absorb probable incurred losses as they
arise, there can be no assurance that we will not sustain losses in any given period which could be
substantial in relation to, or greater than, the size of the allowance.

securities and to make equity investments in subsidiaries engaged in a variety of non-banking
activities, which include real estate-related activities such as community development, real estate
appraisals, arranging equity financing for commercial real estate, and owning and operating real
estate used substantially by our bank or acquired for its future use. In addition, our bank
holding company&#146;s qualification as a financial holding company enables us to make equity
investments in companies engaged in a broader range of financial activities than we could do
without that qualification. Such expanded activities include insuring, guaranteeing, or
indemnifying against loss, harm, damage, illness, disability or death, or issuing annuities, and
acting as principal, agent, or broker for such purposes; providing financial, investment, or
economic advisory services, including advising a mutual fund; and underwriting, dealing in, or

any of these equity investments at the bank holding company level. Our Board of Directors may,
however, alter the investment policy at any time without shareholder approval.

it would be permitted, as part of the business of underwriting or merchant banking activity and
under certain circumstances and procedures, to invest in shares or other ownership interests in, or
assets of, companies engaged in non-financial activities. In order to make those investments, our
bank holding company would be required (i)&nbsp;to become, or to have an affiliate that is, a registered
securities broker or dealer or a registered municipal securities dealer, or (ii)&nbsp;to control both an
insurance company predominantly engaged in underwriting life, accident and health, or property and
casualty insurance (other than credit insurance) or issuing annuities, and a registered investment

and may participate in the federal funds market with other depository institutions. Subject to
certain exceptions, our bank is prohibited from investing in equity securities. Among the equity
investments permitted for our bank under various conditions and subject in some instances to amount
limitations, are shares of a subsidiary insurance agency, mortgage company, real estate company, or
Michigan business and industrial development company, such as our insurance company, our mortgage
company, or our real estate company. Under another such exception, in certain circumstances and
with prior notice to or approval of the FDIC, our bank could invest up to 10% of its total assets
in the equity securities of a subsidiary corporation engaged in the acquisition and development of
real property for sale, or the improvement of real property by construction or rehabilitation of
residential or commercial units for sale or lease. Our bank has no present plans to make such an
investment. Real estate acquired by our bank in satisfaction of or foreclosure upon loans may be
held by our bank for specified periods. Our bank is also permitted to invest in such real estate
as is necessary for the convenient transaction of its business. Our bank&#146;s Board of Directors may
alter the bank&#146;s investment policy without shareholder approval at any time.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our primary markets for loans and core deposits are the Grand Rapids, Holland, Lansing and Ann
Arbor metropolitan areas. We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a
variety of different competitors. We compete for deposits, loans and other financial services with
numerous Michigan-based and out-of-state banks, savings banks, thrifts, credit unions and other
financial institutions as well as from other entities that provide financial services. Some of the
financial institutions and financial service organizations with which we compete are not subject to
the same degree of regulation as we are. Many of our primary competitors have been in business for
many years, have established customer bases, are larger, have substantially higher lending limits
than we do, and offer larger branch networks and other services which we do not. Most of these
same entities have greater capital resources than we do, which, among other things, may allow them
to price their services at levels more favorable to the customer and to provide larger credit
facilities than we do. Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, effective March&nbsp;11, 2000, securities
firms and insurance companies that elect to become financial holding companies may acquire banks
and other financial institutions. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act may significantly change the
competitive environment in which we conduct our business. The financial services industry is also
likely to become more competitive as further technological advances enable more companies to
provide financial services.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following risk factors could affect our business, financial condition or results of
operations. These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating the
forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report because they could cause the actual
results and conditions to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements.
Before you buy our common stock, you should know that investing in our common stock involves risks,
including the risks described below. The risks that are highlighted here are not the only ones we
face. If the adverse matters referred to in any of the risks actually occur, our business,
financial condition or operations could be adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of
our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Adverse changes in economic conditions or interest rates may negatively affect our earnings,
capital and liquidity.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The results of operations for financial institutions, including our bank, may be materially
and adversely affected by changes in prevailing local and national economic conditions, including
declines in real estate market values and the related declines in value of our real estate
collateral, rapid increases or decreases in interest rates and changes in the monetary and fiscal
policies of the federal government. Our profitability is heavily influenced by the spread between
the interest rates we earn on loans and investments and the interest rates we pay on deposits and
other interest-bearing liabilities. Substantially all of our loans are to businesses and
individuals in western, south central, or southeastern Michigan, and any decline in the economy of
these areas could adversely affect us. Like most banking institutions, our net interest spread and
margin will be affected by general economic conditions and other factors that influence market
interest rates and our ability to respond to changes in these rates. At any given time, our assets
and liabilities may be such that they will be affected differently by a given change in interest
rates.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Our credit losses could increase and our allowance for loan and lease losses may not be adequate to
cover actual loan losses.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The risk of nonpayment of loans is inherent in all lending activities, and nonpayment, when it
occurs, may have a materially adverse effect on our earnings and overall financial condition as
well as the value of our common stock. Our focus on commercial lending may result in a larger
concentration of loans to small businesses. As a result, we may assume different or greater
lending risks than other banks. We make various assumptions and judgments about the collectibility
of our loan portfolio and provide an allowance for losses based on several factors. If our
assumptions are wrong, our allowance for loan and lease losses may not be sufficient to cover our
losses, which would have an adverse effect on our operating results. While we have not experienced
unusual amounts of charge-offs or nonperforming loans, we cannot assure you that we will not
experience an increase in delinquencies and losses as the loans and leases continue to mature. The
actual amounts of future provisions for loan and lease losses cannot be determined at this time and
may exceed the amounts of past provisions. Additions to our allowance for loan and lease losses
decrease our net income.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>We rely heavily on our management and other key personnel, and the loss of any of them may
adversely affect our operations.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are and will continue to be dependent upon the services of our management team, including
Gerald R. Johnson, Jr., our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Michael H. Price, our President
and Chief Operating Officer, and our other senior managers. The loss of either Mr.&nbsp;Johnson or Mr.
Price, or any of our other senior managers, could have an adverse effect on our growth and
performance. We have entered into employment contracts with Mr.&nbsp;Johnson and Mr.&nbsp;Price and two
other executive officers. The contracts provide for a three year employment period that is
extended for an additional year each year unless a notice is given indicating that the contract
will not be extended.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, we continue to depend on our city presidents and key commercial loan officers.
Our city presidents and several of our commercial loan officers are responsible, or share
responsibility, for generating and managing a significant portion of our commercial loan and lease
portfolio. Our success can be attributed in large part to the relationships these officers as well
as members of our management team have developed and are able to maintain with our customers as we
continue to implement our community banking philosophy. The loss of any of these commercial loan
officers could adversely affect our loan and lease portfolio and performance, and our ability to
generate new loans and leases. Many of our key employees have signed agreements with us agreeing
not to compete with us in one or more of our markets for specified time periods if they leave
employment with us.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Some of the other financial institutions in our markets also require their key employees to
sign agreements that preclude or limit their ability to leave their employment and compete with
them or solicit their customers. These agreements make it more difficult for us to hire loan
officers with experience in our markets who can immediately solicit their former or new customers
on our behalf.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Decline in the availability of out-of-area deposits could cause liquidity or interest rate margin
concerns, or limit our growth.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have utilized and expect to continue to utilize out-of-area or wholesale deposits to
support our asset growth. These deposits are generally a lower cost source of funds when compared
to the interest rates that we would have to offer in our local markets to generate a commensurate
level of funds. In addition, the overhead costs associated with wholesale deposits are
considerably less than the overhead costs we would incur to obtain and administer a similar level
of local deposits. A decline in the availability of these wholesale deposits would require us to
fund our growth with more costly funding sources, which could reduce our net interest margin, limit
our growth, reduce our asset size, or increase our overhead costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Future sales of our common stock or other securities may dilute the value of our common stock.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In many situations, our Board of Directors has the authority, without any vote of our
shareholders, to issue shares of our authorized but unissued stock, including shares authorized and
unissued under our Stock Incentive Plan of 2006. In the future, we may issue additional
securities, through public or private offerings, in order to raise additional capital. Any such
issuance would dilute the percentage of ownership interest of existing shareholders and may dilute
the per share book value of the common stock. In addition, option holders under our stock-based
incentive plans may exercise their options at a time when we would otherwise be able to obtain
additional equity capital on more favorable terms.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Our growth and expansion may be limited by many factors.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our primary growth strategy has been to grow internally by increasing our business in the
western Michigan area, and more recently in the Lansing and Ann Arbor areas of Michigan. We are
also considering other areas in which we may expand our business. This internal growth strategy
depends in large part on generating an increasing level of loans and deposits at acceptable risk
and interest rate levels without commensurate increases in non-interest expenses. There can be no
assurance that we will be successful in continuing our growth strategy due to delays and other
impediments resulting from regulatory oversight, limited availability of qualified personnel and
favorable and cost effective branch sites, and management time, capital, and expenses required to
develop new branch sites and markets. In addition, the success of our growth strategy will depend
on maintaining sufficient regulatory capital levels and on adequate economic conditions in our
market areas.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, although we have no current plans to do so, we may acquire banks, related
businesses or branches of other financial institutions that we believe provide a strategic fit with
our business. To the extent that we grow through acquisitions, we cannot assure you that we will
be able to adequately or profitably manage this growth. Acquiring other banks, businesses, or
branches involves risks commonly associated with acquisitions, including exposure to unknown or
contingent liabilities and asset quality issues, difficulty and expense of integrating the
operations and personnel, potential disruption to our business including the diversion of
management&#146;s time and attention, and the possible loss of key employees and customers.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive
banking industry.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a variety of different
competitors. Our future growth and success will depend on our ability to compete effectively in
this highly competitive environment. We compete for deposits, loans and other financial services
with numerous Michigan-based and out-of-state banks, thrifts, credit unions and other financial
institutions as well as other entities that provide financial services, including securities firms
and mutual funds. Some of the financial institutions and financial service organizations with
which we compete are not subject to the same degree of regulation as we are. Most of our
competitors have been in business for many years, have established customer bases, are larger, have
substantially higher lending limits than we do and offer branch networks and other services which
we do not, including trust and international banking services. Most of these entities have greater
capital and other resources than we do, which, among other things, may allow them to price their
services at levels more favorable to the customer and to provide larger credit facilities than we
do. This competition may limit our growth or earnings. Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999,
effective March&nbsp;11, 2000, securities firms and insurance companies that elect to become financial
holding companies may acquire banks and other financial institutions. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
affects the competitive environment in which we conduct business. The financial services industry
is also likely to become more competitive as further technological advances enable more companies
to provide financial services. These technological advances may diminish the importance of
depository institutions and other financial intermediaries in the transfer of funds between
parties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>We are subject to significant government regulation, and any regulatory changes may adversely
affect us.</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The banking industry is heavily regulated under both federal and state law. These regulations
are primarily intended to protect customers, not our creditors or shareholders. Existing state and
federal banking laws subject us to substantial limitations with respect to the making of loans, the
purchase of securities, the payment of dividends and many other aspects of our business. Some of
these laws may benefit us, others may increase our costs of doing business, or otherwise adversely
affect us and create competitive advantages for others. Regulations affecting banks and financial
services companies undergo continuous change, and we cannot predict the ultimate effect of these
changes, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability or financial condition.
Federal economic and monetary policy may also affect our ability to attract deposits, make loans
and achieve satisfactory interest spreads.

technology-driven products and services. In addition to better serving customers, the effective
use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to reduce costs. Our
future success will depend, in part, on our ability to address the needs of our customers by using
technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience as

however, could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in
control. The provisions also could diminish the opportunities for a holder of our common stock to
participate in tender offers, including tender offers at a price above the then-current market
price for our common stock. These provisions could also prevent transactions in which our
shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then-current market prices,
and may limit the ability of our shareholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in
their best interests.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Michigan Business Corporation Act contains provisions intended to protect shareholders and

provisions and the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, federal law requires the
Federal Reserve Board&#146;s approval prior to acquiring &#147;control&#148; of a bank holding company. All of
these provisions may delay or prevent a change in control without action by our shareholders and

fulfill their contractual obligations to us, or will be subject to the same risk of fraud or
operational errors by their respective employees as are we, and to the risk that our or our

also face the risk that the design of our controls and procedures prove inadequate or are

declare from time to time. We may only pay dividends out of funds that are legally available for
that purpose. We are a holding company and substantially all of our assets are held by our
subsidiaries. Our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders depends primarily on our bank&#146;s
ability to pay dividends to us. Dividend payments and extensions of credit to us from our bank are
subject to legal and regulatory limitations, generally based on capital levels and current and
retained earnings, imposed by law and regulatory agencies with authority over our bank. The
ability of our bank to pay dividends is also subject to its profitability, financial condition,
capital expenditures and other cash flow requirements. In addition, under the terms of our
subordinated debentures, we would be precluded from paying dividends on our common stock if an
event of default has occurred and is continuing under the subordinated debentures, or if we
exercised our right to defer payments of interest on the subordinated debentures, until the
deferral ended.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following discussion and other portions of this Annual Report contain forward-looking
statements that are based on management&#146;s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and
projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about our company. Words such
as &#147;anticipates,&#148; &#147;believes,&#148; &#147;estimates,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;forecasts,&#148; &#147;intends,&#148; &#147;is likely,&#148; &#147;plans,&#148;
&#147;projects,&#148; and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such
forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve
certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions (&#147;Future Factors&#148;) that are difficult to predict with
regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and
outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking
statements. We undertake no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events (whether anticipated or unanticipated), or
otherwise.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Future Factors include changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for
products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors;
changes in banking regulation; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies, and assessments; the
impact of technological advances; governmental and regulatory policy changes; the outcomes of
contingencies; trends in customer behavior as well as their ability to repay loans; changes in the
national and local economies; and other risk factors described in Item&nbsp;1A of this Annual Report.
These are representative of the Future Factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate
actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based
on Mercantile Bank Corporation&#146;s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The
preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Material estimates that are
particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the
allowance for loan and lease losses, and actual results could differ from those estimates.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level we believe is adequate to absorb
probable incurred losses identified and inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. Our evaluation
of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses is an estimate based on reviews of
individual loans, assessments of the impact of current and anticipated economic conditions on the
portfolio, and historical loss experience. The allowance for loan and lease losses represents
management&#146;s best estimate, but significant downturns in circumstances relating to loan and lease
quality or economic conditions could result in a requirement for an increased allowance for loan
and lease losses in the near future. Likewise, an upturn in loan and lease quality or improved
economic conditions may result in a decline in the required allowance for loan and lease losses.
In either instance, unanticipated changes could have a significant impact on operating earnings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The allowance for loan and lease losses is increased through a provision charged to operating
expense. Uncollectible loans and leases are charged-off through the allowance for loan and lease
losses. Recoveries of loans and leases previously charged-off are added to the allowance for loan
and lease losses. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that contractual interest and
principal payments will not be collected either for the amounts or by the dates as scheduled in the
loan agreement. Our policy for recognizing income on impaired loans is to accrue interest unless a
loan is placed on nonaccrual status.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>INTRODUCTION</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">This Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements contained in this Annual Report. This discussion provides information about
the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Mercantile Bank Corporation and
its consolidated subsidiary, Mercantile Bank of Michigan (&#147;our bank&#148;), and of Mercantile Bank
Mortgage Company, LLC (&#147;our mortgage company&#148;), Mercantile Bank Real Estate Co.,
L.L.C. (&#147;our real estate company&#148;) and Mercantile Insurance Center, Inc. (&#147;our insurance company&#148;),
which are subsidiaries of our bank. Unless the text clearly suggests otherwise, references to
&#147;us,&#148; &#147;we,&#148; &#147;our,&#148; or &#147;the company&#148; include Mercantile Bank Corporation and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries referred to above.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We were incorporated on July&nbsp;15, 1997 as a bank holding company to establish and own our bank. Our
bank, after receiving all necessary regulatory approvals, began operations on December&nbsp;15, 1997.
Our bank has a strong commitment to community banking and offers a wide range of financial products
and services, primarily to small- to medium-sized businesses, as well as individuals. Our bank&#146;s
lending strategy focuses on commercial lending, and, to a lesser extent, residential mortgage and
consumer lending. Our bank also offers a broad array of deposit products, including checking,
savings, money market, and certificates of deposit, as well as security repurchase agreements. Our
primary markets are the Grand Rapids, Holland, Lansing and Ann Arbor metropolitan areas. Our bank
utilizes certificates of deposit from customers located outside of the primary market area to
assist in funding the rapid asset growth our bank has experienced since inception.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We formed a business trust, Mercantile Bank Capital Trust I (&#147;the trust&#148;), in 2004 to issue trust
preferred securities. We issued subordinated debentures to the trust in return for the proceeds
raised from the issuance of the trust preferred securities. In accordance with FASB Interpretation
No.&nbsp;46, the trust is not consolidated, but instead we report the subordinated debentures issued to
the trust as a liability.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our mortgage company&#146;s predecessor, Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, was formed to increase the
profitability and efficiency of the company&#146;s mortgage loan operations. Mercantile Bank Mortgage
Company initiated business on October&nbsp;24, 2000 from our bank&#146;s contribution of most of its
residential mortgage loan portfolio and participation interests in certain commercial mortgage
loans. On the same date, our bank had also transferred its residential mortgage origination
function to Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company. On January&nbsp;1, 2004, Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company
was reorganized as Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, LLC, a limited liability company. Mortgage
loans originated and held by our mortgage company are serviced by our bank pursuant to a servicing
agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our insurance company acquired, at nominal cost, an existing shelf insurance agency effective April
15, 2002. An Agency and Institution Agreement was entered into among our insurance company, our
bank and Hub International for the purpose of providing programs of mass marketed personal lines of
insurance. Insurance product offerings include private passenger automobile, homeowners, personal
inland marine, boat owners, recreational vehicle, dwelling fire, umbrella policies, small business
and life insurance products, all of which are provided by and written through companies that have
appointed Hub International as their agent.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our real estate company was organized on July&nbsp;21, 2003, principally to develop, construct and own
our new facility in downtown Grand Rapids which serves as our bank&#146;s new main office and Mercantile
Bank Corporation&#146;s headquarters. Construction was completed during the second quarter of 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>FINANCIAL CONDITION</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We continued to experience strong asset growth during 2006. Assets increased from $1,838.2&nbsp;million
on December&nbsp;31, 2005 to $2,067.3&nbsp;million on December&nbsp;31, 2006. This represents an increase in
total assets of $229.1&nbsp;million, or 12.5%. The increase in total assets was primarily comprised of
a $182.8&nbsp;million increase in net loans and leases, a $20.8&nbsp;million increase in securities and a
$14.6&nbsp;million increase in cash and cash equivalents. The increase in assets was primarily funded
by a $227.6&nbsp;million increase in deposits, a $13.3&nbsp;million increase in repurchase agreements and a
$16.8&nbsp;million increase in shareholders&#146; equity.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Earning Assets</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Average earning assets equaled 94.9% of average total assets during 2006, compared to 94.8% during
2005. Although we experienced strong asset growth during 2006, the asset composition remained
relatively constant. The loan portfolio continued to comprise a majority of earning assets,
followed by securities and federal funds sold.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our loan and lease portfolio, which equaled 89.2% of average earnings assets during 2006, is
primarily comprised of commercial loans and leases. Constituting over 92% of loans and leases and
growing by $177.3&nbsp;million during 2006, the commercial loan and lease portfolio represents loans to
businesses generally located within our market areas. Approximately 70% of the commercial loan and
lease portfolio is primarily secured by real estate properties, with the remaining generally
secured by other business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment. The
continued significant concentration of the loan and lease portfolio in commercial loans and leases
and the strong growth
of this portion of our lending business are consistent with our strategy of focusing a substantial
amount of our efforts on &#147;wholesale&#148; banking. Corporate and business lending continues to be an
area of expertise for our senior management team, and our commercial lenders have extensive
commercial lending experience, with most having at least ten years&#146; experience. Of each of the
loan categories that we originate, commercial loans and leases are most efficiently originated and
managed, thus limiting overhead costs by necessitating the attention of fewer full-time employees.
Our commercial lending business generates the greatest amount of local deposits and is virtually
our only source of significant demand deposits.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Residential mortgage and consumer loans, while equaling less than 8% of total loans and leases
during 2006, also experienced strong growth; however, while we expect the residential mortgage loan
and consumer loan portfolios to increase in future periods, the commercial sector of the lending
efforts and resultant assets are expected to remain the dominant loan portfolio category given our
wholesale banking strategy.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following tables present the maturity of total loans outstanding as of December&nbsp;31, 2006,
according to scheduled repayments of principal on fixed rate loans and repricing frequency on
variable rate loans. Floating rate loans that are currently at interest rate ceilings, totaling
$281.0&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, are treated as fixed rate loans and are reflected using
maturity date and not repricing frequency.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our credit policies establish guidelines to manage credit risk and asset quality. These
guidelines include loan review and early identification of problem loans to provide effective loan
portfolio administration. The credit policies and procedures are meant to minimize the risk and
uncertainties inherent in lending. In following these policies and procedures, we must rely on
estimates, appraisals and evaluations of loans and the possibility that changes in these could
occur quickly because of changing economic conditions. Identified problem loans, which exhibit
characteristics (financial or otherwise) that could cause the loans to become nonperforming or
require restructuring in the future, are included on the internal &#147;Watch List.&#148; Senior management
reviews this list regularly.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Although the level of net loan and lease charge-offs and nonperforming loans and leases increased
during 2006, the quality of our loan portfolio remains good. The levels of net loan and lease
charge-offs and nonperforming loans and leases approximated banking industry averages during 2006,
compared to levels that were below banking industry averages in prior years. As of December&nbsp;31,
2006, nonperforming loans and leases totaled $8.6&nbsp;million, or 0.49% of total loans and leases. At
December&nbsp;31, 2005, nonperforming loans and leases totaled $4.0&nbsp;million, or 0.26% of total loans and
leases. Net loan and lease charge-offs during 2006 totaled $4.9&nbsp;million, or 0.29% of average total
loans and leases. During 2005, net loan and lease charge-offs totaled $1.1&nbsp;million, or 0.08% of
average total loans and leases. Over 98% of the loan and lease portfolio consists of loans and
leases extended directly to companies or individuals doing business and residing within our market
areas. The remaining portion is comprised of commercial loans participated with certain
unaffiliated commercial banks outside of our market areas, which are underwritten using the same
loan criteria as though our bank was the originating bank.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In each accounting period, we adjust the allowance to the amount we believe is necessary to
maintain the allowance at adequate levels. Through the loan and lease review and credit
departments, we attempt to allocate specific portions of the allowance based on specifically
identifiable problem loans and leases. The evaluation of the allowance is further based on, but
not limited to, consideration of the internally prepared Reserve Analysis, composition of the loan
and lease portfolio, third party analysis of the loan and lease administration processes and
portfolio and general economic conditions. In addition, the strong commercial loan and lease
growth is taken into account.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Reserve Analysis, used since our inception and completed monthly, applies reserve allocation
factors to outstanding loan and lease balances to calculate an overall allowance dollar amount.
For commercial loans and leases, which continue to comprise a vast majority of our total loans and
leases, reserve allocation factors are based upon the loan ratings as determined by our
standardized grade paradigms. For retail loans, reserve allocation factors are based upon the type
of credit. Adjustments for specific lending relationships, including impaired loans and leases,
are made on a case-by-case basis. The reserve allocation factors are primarily based on the recent
levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets, the comparison of
the recent levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets with a
customized peer group consisting of ten similarly-sized publicly traded banking organizations
conducting business in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and/or Ohio, the review and
consideration of our loan migration analysis and the experience of senior management making similar
loans and leases for an extensive period of time. We regularly review the Reserve Analysis and
make adjustments periodically based upon identifiable trends and experience.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The primary risk elements with respect to commercial loans and leases are the financial
condition of the borrower, the sufficiency of collateral, and lack of timely payment. We have a
policy of requesting and reviewing periodic financial statements from commercial loan and lease
customers, and we periodically review the existence of collateral and its value. The primary risk
element with respect to each instalment and residential real estate loan is lack of timely payment.
We have a reporting system that monitors past due loans and have adopted policies to pursue
creditor&#146;s rights in order to preserve our bank&#146;s position.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Although we believe that the allowance is adequate to sustain losses as they arise, there can be no
assurance that our bank will not sustain losses in any given period that could be substantial in
relation to, or greater than, the size of the allowance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The securities portfolio also experienced strong growth during 2006, increasing from $181.6&nbsp;million
on December&nbsp;31, 2005 to $202.4&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2006. During 2006, the securities portfolio
equaled 10.2% of average earning assets. We maintain the portfolio at levels to provide adequate
pledging for the repurchase agreement program and secondary liquidity for our daily operations. In
addition, the portfolio serves a primary interest rate risk management function. At December&nbsp;31,
2006, the portfolio was comprised of high credit quality U.S. Government Agency issued bonds (38%),
municipal general obligation and revenue bonds (32%), U.S. Government Agency issued and guaranteed
mortgage-backed securities (26%), Federal Home Loan Bank stock (4%) and a mutual fund (less than
1%).

available for sale are stated at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of income
tax, reported as a separate component of shareholders&#146; equity in accumulated other comprehensive
income. The fair value of securities designated as available for sale at December&nbsp;31, 2006 and

million, compared to the net unrealized loss of $2.2&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2005. All
tax-exempt municipal bonds have been designated as &#147;held to maturity&#148; as defined in SFAS No.&nbsp;115,

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Federal funds sold, consisting of excess funds sold overnight to correspondent banks, are used to
manage daily liquidity needs and interest rate sensitivity. During 2006, the average balance of
these funds equaled 0.5% of average earning assets, unchanged from the level during 2005. The
levels maintained during 2006 and 2005 are well within our internal policy guidelines, and future
levels are not expected to change significantly.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Cash and due from bank balances increased from $36.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to $51.4&nbsp;million
on December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $15.2&nbsp;million. The increase was primarily the result of
larger amounts of deposits made by our deposit customers on the last business day of 2006 when
compared to the last business day of 2005. Our commercial lending and wholesale funding focus
results in relatively large day-to-day fluctuations of our cash and due from bank balances;
however, relative to our asset size the average balances are generally stable. Cash and due from
bank balances averaged $38.3&nbsp;million, or 2.0% of average assets during 2006, compared to $36.8
million, or 2.2% of average assets, during 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net premises and equipment increased from $30.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to $33.5&nbsp;million on
December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $3.3&nbsp;million. The increase primarily reflects the land
acquisition and initial construction costs associated with our new office facility currently under
construction in East Lansing, Michigan. Construction on this new facility is expected to be
completed during the second quarter of 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Source of Funds</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our major sources of funds are from deposits, repurchase agreements and Federal Home Loan Bank
(&#147;FHLB&#148;) advances. Total deposits increased from $1,419.4&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to
$1,646.9&nbsp;million on December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $227.5&nbsp;million, or 16.0%. Included within
these numbers is the success we achieved in generating deposit growth from customers located within
our market areas during 2006. Local deposits increased from $456.5&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005,
to $633.1&nbsp;million on December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $176.6&nbsp;million, or 38.7%. Despite this
success in obtaining funds from local customers, the substantial asset growth has necessitated the
continued acquisition of funds from depositors outside of our market areas and FHLB advances.
Out-of-area deposits increased from $962.8&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to $1,013.8&nbsp;million on
December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $51.0&nbsp;million, or 5.3%. Repurchase agreements increased from
$72.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to $85.5&nbsp;million on December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $13.3
million, or 18.4%. FHLB advances decreased from $130.0&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to $95.0
million on December&nbsp;31, 2006, a decrease of $35.0&nbsp;million, or 26.9%. At December&nbsp;31, 2006, local
deposits and repurchase agreements equaled 38.4% of total funding liabilities, compared to 31.8% on
December&nbsp;31, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During 2006, we experienced strong growth in our noninterest-bearing checking deposit accounts.
Comprised primarily of business loan customers, noninterest-bearing checking deposit accounts grew
$12.4&nbsp;million, or 10.2%, and equaled 6.4% of average total liabilities during 2006.
Interest-bearing checking accounts increased $0.2&nbsp;million, or 0.4%, and equaled 2.0% of average
total liabilities during 2006. Money market deposit accounts decreased $0.9&nbsp;million, or 9.0%, and
equaled 0.6% of average total liabilities during 2006. Business loan customers also comprise the
majority of interest-bearing checking and money market deposit accounts, although to a lesser
extent than noninterest-bearing checking accounts. Pursuant to Federal law and regulations,
incorporated businesses may not own interest-bearing checking accounts and transactions from money
market accounts are limited. We anticipate continued overall growth of our check-writing deposit
accounts as additional business loans are extended and through the efforts of our branch network
and business development activities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During 2006, savings account balances recorded a decrease of $13.9&nbsp;million, or 13.1%, and equaled
5.2% of average total liabilities. The decline in savings account balances during 2006 is
primarily due to customers opening certificates of deposit with funds from their savings accounts,
as rates offered on certificates of deposit have risen at a faster pace than rates offered on
savings accounts. Business loan customers also comprise the majority of savings account holders,
although to a lesser extent than check-writing accounts. While we anticipate an increase in
savings account balances as additional business loans are extended and through the efforts of our
branch network and business development activities, the increase may be negatively impacted by
potential continued fund transfers to certificate of deposit products.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Certificates of deposit purchased by customers located within our market areas increased
significantly during 2006, growing from $179.3&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2005, to $358.2&nbsp;million on
December&nbsp;31, 2006, an increase of $178.9&nbsp;million, or 99.8%. These deposits accounted for 15.9% of
average total liabilities during 2006. The growth was attributable to individuals, businesses and
municipalities, and includes new monies to our bank from existing and new customers as well as
transfers from existing savings accounts. The increase in local municipality certificates of
deposit has been facilitated by our qualifying for funds from new municipal customers and
additional funds from existing customers through a combination of our asset growth and increased
profitability as measured by the municipalities&#146; investment policy guidelines, and is a trend that
we expect to continue.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During 2006, certificates of deposit obtained from customers located outside of our market areas
increased by $51.0&nbsp;million, and represented 55.9% of average total liabilities. At December&nbsp;31,
2006, out-of-area deposits totaled $1,013.8&nbsp;million. Out-of-area deposits consist primarily of
certificates of deposit placed by deposit brokers for a fee, but also include certificates of
deposit obtained from the deposit owners directly. The owners of the out-of-area deposits include
individuals, businesses and governmental units located throughout the country. Out-of-area
deposits are utilized to support our asset growth, and are generally a lower cost source of funds
when compared to the interest rates that would have to be offered in the local market to generate a
sufficient level of funds. During most of 2006, rates paid on new out-of-area deposits were very
similar to rates paid on new certificates of deposit issued to local customers. In addition, the
overhead costs associated with the out-of-area deposits are considerably less than the overhead
costs that would be incurred to administer a similar level of local deposits. Although local
deposits have and are expected to increase as new business, governmental and individual deposit
relationships are established and as existing customers increase the balances in their deposit
accounts, the relatively high reliance on out-of-area deposits will likely remain.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Repurchase agreements increased $13.3&nbsp;million and equaled 4.0% of average total liabilities during
2006. As part of our sweep account program, collected funds from certain business
noninterest-bearing checking accounts are invested in overnight interest-bearing repurchase
agreements. Although not considered a deposit account and therefore not afforded federal deposit
insurance, the repurchase agreements are a means of providing a return for business customers that
are not permitted to have an interest-bearing checking account.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">FHLB advances decreased $35.0&nbsp;million and equaled 6.8% of average total liabilities during 2006.
FHLB advances are collateralized by residential mortgage loans, first mortgage liens on
multi-family residential property loans, first mortgage liens on commercial real estate property
loans, and substantially all other assets of our bank, under a blanket lien arrangement. Our
borrowing line of credit at December&nbsp;31, 2006 totaled $322.6&nbsp;million. We first started to use FHLB
advances in late 2002, and expect to continue to use this funding source, along with out-of-area
certificates of deposit, as part of our wholesale funding program.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Shareholders&#146; equity increased $16.8&nbsp;million and equaled 8.3% of average assets during 2006. The
increase was primarily attributable to net income from operations. Net income from operations
totaled $19.8&nbsp;million during 2006.  Also positively impacting shareholders&#146; equity was a $0.3&nbsp;million mark-to-market adjustment for
available for sale securities as defined in SFAS No.&nbsp;115, plus proceeds totaling $0.4&nbsp;million
relating to stock option exercises and our dividend reinvestment and employee stock purchase plans.
Negatively impacting shareholders&#146; equity during 2006 was the payment of cash dividends, which
totaled $4.0&nbsp;million.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Summary</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We recorded strong earnings performance during 2006. Net income was $19.8&nbsp;million, or $2.48 per
basic share and $2.45 per diluted share. This earnings performance compares favorably to net
income of $17.9&nbsp;million, or $2.25 per basic share and $2.20 per diluted share, recorded in 2005.
The $1.9&nbsp;million improvement in net income represents an increase of 10.9%, while diluted earnings
per share were up 11.4%. The earnings improvement during 2006 over that of 2005 is primarily
attributable to higher net interest income, which more than offset increases in provision expense
and overhead costs.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Net Interest Income</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net interest income, the difference between revenue generated from earning assets and the interest
cost of funding those assets, is our primary source of earnings. Interest income (adjusted for
tax-exempt income) and interest expense totaled $138.5&nbsp;million and $75.7&nbsp;million during 2006,
respectively, providing for net interest income of $62.8&nbsp;million. This performance compares
favorably to that of 2005 when interest income and interest expense were $103.2&nbsp;million and $46.8
million, respectively, providing for net interest income of $56.4&nbsp;million. In comparing 2006 with
2005, interest income increased 34.1%, interest expense was up 61.6% and net interest income
increased 11.3%. The level of net interest income is primarily a function of asset size, as the
weighted average interest rate received on earning assets is greater than the weighted average
interest cost of funding sources; however, factors such as types of assets and liabilities,
interest rate environment, interest rate risk, common stock sales, liquidity, and customer behavior
also impact net interest income as well as the net interest margin.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The net interest margin declined from 3.50% in 2005 to 3.37% in 2006, a decrease of 3.7%. Our net
interest margin during 2004 was 3.30%. Throughout 2005 and during the first half of 2006, our net
interest margin was generally on an increasing trend. From June&nbsp;2004 through June&nbsp;2006, the
Federal Open Market Committee (&#147;FOMC&#148;) increased the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at 17
consecutive meetings, causing the prime rate to increase from 4.00% in June&nbsp;2004 to 8.25% in June
2006. Our yield on assets increased significantly during this time period, as the interest rates
on over 70% of our total loans and leases were tied to the prime rate. Our cost of funds also
increased during this time period, as interest rates paid on our deposits and borrowings increased
as well. However, our cost of funds increased at a slower rate than the increase in our yield on
assets, with a significant portion of our interest-bearing liabilities comprised of fixed rate
certificates of deposit and borrowings, resulting in a lagged increased cost of funds. The FOMC
has left the federal funds rate unchanged since June&nbsp;2006, resulting in a relatively steady yield
on assets. However, our cost of funds has continued to increase as maturing fixed rate
certificates of deposit and borrowings, which were obtained during lower interest rate
environments, are replaced or renewed at higher interest rates. Assuming no major changes in the
federal funds rate in the near future, we expect our cost of funds, and therefore our net interest
margin, to level-out during the second quarter of 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following table depicts the average balance, interest earned and paid, and weighted average
rate of our assets, liabilities and shareholders&#146; equity during 2006, 2005 and 2004. The table
also depicts the dollar amount of change in interest income and interest expense of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, segregated between change due to volume
and change due to rate. For tax-exempt investment securities, interest income and yield have been
computed on a tax equivalent basis using a marginal tax rate of 35%. Securities interest income
was increased by $1.2&nbsp;million, $1.1&nbsp;million and $1.0&nbsp;million in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest income is primarily generated from the loan and lease portfolio, and to a lesser
degree from securities, federal funds sold and short term investments. Interest income increased
$35.3&nbsp;million during 2006 from that earned in 2005, totaling $138.5&nbsp;million in 2006 compared to
$103.2&nbsp;million in the previous year. The increase is primarily due to the growth in earning assets
and a higher interest rate environment during 2006 when compared to 2005. Reflecting the higher
interest rate environment, the yield on average earning assets increased from 6.40% recorded in
2005 to 7.44% in 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The growth in interest income is primarily attributable to an increase in earning assets and an
increase in earning asset yields. During 2006, average earning assets increased $247.3&nbsp;million,
increasing from $1,613.4&nbsp;million in 2005 to $1,860.7&nbsp;million during 2006. Growth in average total
loans and leases, totaling $227.7&nbsp;million, comprised 92.1% of the increase in average earning
assets during 2006. Interest income generated from the loan and lease portfolio increased $33.8
million during 2006 over the level earned in 2005, comprised of an increase of $16.1&nbsp;million from
the growth in the loan and lease portfolio and an increase of $17.7&nbsp;million due to the increase in
the yield earned on the loan portfolio to 7.68% from 6.54%. The increase in the loan and lease
portfolio yield is primarily due to a higher interest rate environment during 2006 than in 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Growth in the securities portfolio and an improved overall yield also added to the increase in
interest income during 2006 over that of 2005. Average securities increased by $18.2&nbsp;million in
2006, increasing from $172.1&nbsp;million in 2005 to $190.3&nbsp;million in 2006. The growth equated to an
increase in interest income of $1.0&nbsp;million, while an improved yield earned on the securities
portfolio from 5.40% to 5.51% increased interest income by $0.2&nbsp;million. Interest income earned on
federal funds sold increased by $0.2&nbsp;million due to a small increase in the average balance and a
higher yield during 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest expense is primarily generated from interest-bearing deposits, and to a lesser degree from
repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and subordinated debentures. Interest expense increased $28.8
million during 2006 from that expensed in 2005, totaling $75.6&nbsp;million in 2006 compared to $46.8
million in the previous year. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to the
impact of an increase in interest-bearing liabilities and a higher interest rate environment during
2006 when compared to 2005. Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1,663.4&nbsp;million during 2006, or
$234.2&nbsp;million higher than the average interest-bearing liabilities of $1,429.2&nbsp;million during
2005. This growth resulted in increased interest expense of $9.3&nbsp;million. An increase in interest
expense of $19.6&nbsp;million was recorded during 2006 primarily due to a higher interest rate
environment during 2006 than in 2005. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased
from the 3.28% recorded in 2005 to 4.55% in 2006.

interest expense of $9.8&nbsp;million, with an additional $15.2&nbsp;million expensed due to the increase in
the average rate paid as lower-rate certificates of deposit matured and were either renewed or
replaced with higher-costing certificates of deposit throughout 2006. A decline in average savings
deposits, totaling $20.9&nbsp;million, equated to a decrease in interest expense of $0.6&nbsp;million;
however, interest expense of $1.0&nbsp;million was recorded due to an increase in the average rate paid

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The provision for loan and lease losses totaled $5.8&nbsp;million during 2006, compared to the $3.8
million expensed during 2005. The increase primarily reflects an increase in the volume of loan
and lease net charge-offs during 2006 when compared to 2005, partially offset by lower loan and
lease growth in 2006. Net loan and lease charge-offs during 2006 totaled $4.9&nbsp;million, or 0.29% of
average total loans and leases. Net loan and lease charge-offs during 2005 totaled $1.1&nbsp;million,
or 0.08% of average total loans and leases. Loan and lease growth during 2006 equaled $183.7
million, compared to loan and lease growth of $244.7&nbsp;million during 2005. The allowance as a
percentage of total loans outstanding as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 was 1.23%, compared to 1.31% at
year-end 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In each accounting period, we adjust the allowance by the amount we believe is necessary to
maintain the allowance at adequate levels. Through the loan and lease review and credit
departments, we attempt to allocate specific portions of the allowance based on specifically
identifiable problem loans and leases. The evaluation of the allowance is further based on, but
not limited to, consideration of the internally prepared Reserve Analysis, composition of the loan
and lease portfolio, third party analysis of the loan and lease administration processes and
portfolio and general economic conditions. In addition, the strong commercial loan and leases
growth is taken into account.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Reserve Analysis, used since our inception and completed monthly, applies reserve allocation
factors to outstanding loan and lease balances to calculate an overall allowance dollar amount.
For commercial loans and leases, which continue to comprise a vast majority of our total loans and
leases, reserve allocation factors are based upon the loan ratings as determined by our
standardized grade paradigms. For retail loans, reserve allocation factors are based upon the type
of credit. Adjustments for specific lending relationships, including impaired loans and leases,
are made on a case-by-case basis. The reserve allocation factors are primarily based on the recent
levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets, the comparison of
the recent levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets with a
customized peer group consisting of ten similarly-sized publicly traded banking organizations
conducting business in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and/or Ohio, the review and
consideration of our loan migration analysis and the experience of senior management making similar
loans and leases for an extensive period of time. We regularly review the Reserve Analysis and
make adjustments periodically based upon identifiable trends and experience.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest income totaled $5.3&nbsp;million in 2006, a decrease of $0.4&nbsp;million from the $5.7&nbsp;million
earned in 2005. Other noninterest income during 2005 included a one-time gain of $0.7&nbsp;million
which was recorded from the sale of state tax credits derived from the construction of the new main
office in downtown Grand Rapids. Deposit and repurchase agreement service charges were unchanged
in 2006 when compared to 2005; although the number of deposit accounts increased during 2006, the
earnings credit rate also increased, reducing the level of fees paid by our depositors. Earnings
from increased cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance policies increased $0.2&nbsp;million in
2006, primarily reflecting a higher balance from the purchase of additional policies during the
year. We recorded increases in virtually all other fee income-producing activities in 2006 when
compared to 2005, with the exception of residential mortgage banking fees, which decreased $0.1
million due to lower volume of activity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Noninterest Expense</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest expense during 2006 totaled $32.3&nbsp;million, an increase of $1.2&nbsp;million over the $31.1
million expensed in 2005. Salary expense and benefit costs increased $0.3&nbsp;million in 2006 when
compared to 2005. Base compensation increased approximately $2.9&nbsp;million, primarily reflecting the
increase in full-time equivalent employees from 273 at year-end 2005 to 291 at year-end 2006 and
annual pay increases. However, bonus expense declined $2.6&nbsp;million during 2006 when compared to
2005. Occupancy, furniture and equipment costs increased $0.9&nbsp;million in 2006, primarily
reflecting a full year&#146;s expense associated with the opening of our new main office in downtown
Grand Rapids during the second quarter of 2005, and the opening of our new leased facilities in
Lansing and Ann Arbor during the third quarter of 2005. All other non-interest expenses, in
aggregate, were relatively unchanged in 2006 when compared to 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">While the dollar amount of noninterest costs has increased, the growth of net interest income and
fee income has increased more. Noninterest costs during 2006 were $1.2&nbsp;million higher than the
level of overhead costs expensed during 2005; however, net interest income and fee income increased
a combined $5.9&nbsp;million during the same time period. Monitoring and controlling our noninterest
costs, while at the same time providing high quality service to our customers, is one of our
priorities. The efficiency ratio, a banking industry standardized calculation that attempts to
reflect the utilization of overhead costs, improved during 2006 and remained well below banking
industry averages. Computed by dividing noninterest expenses by net interest income plus
noninterest income, the efficiency ratio was 48.3% during 2006, compared to 51.1% during 2005.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Federal income tax expense was $9.0&nbsp;million in 2006, an increase of $0.9&nbsp;million over the $8.1
million expensed during 2005. The increase during 2006 is primarily due to the growth in our
pre-federal income tax profitability. The effective tax rate for 2006 was 31.1%, compared to 31.3%
in 2005.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We recorded strong earnings performance during 2005. Net income was $17.9&nbsp;million, or $2.25 per
basic share and $2.20 per diluted share. This earnings performance compares favorably to net
income of $13.7&nbsp;million, or $1.73 per basic share and $1.69 per diluted share, recorded in 2004.
The $4.2&nbsp;million improvement in net income represents an increase of 30.5%, while diluted earnings
per share were up 30.2%. The earnings improvement during 2005 over that of 2004 is primarily
attributable to higher net interest income and a lower provision expense, which more than offset an
increase in overhead costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net income for 2004 includes an $845,000 ($548,000 after-tax) write-off associated with the
unamortized balance of issuance costs related to the redemption of the $16.0&nbsp;million of 9.60%
Cumulative Preferred Securities issued in 1999 by MBWM Capital Trust I. Excluding this one-time
expense, net income for 2004 was $14.3&nbsp;million ($1.80 per basic share and $1.76 per diluted share).
We believe excluding the impact of the one-time charge from 2004 operating results and performance
measures allows a more meaningful comparison of 2005 results to 2004 results; therefore, the
following discussion of our results of operations for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2005 and
December&nbsp;31, 2004 includes both GAAP and non-GAAP facts and figures where appropriate.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Net Interest Income</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net interest income, the difference between revenue generated from earning assets and the interest
cost of funding those assets, is our primary source of earnings. Interest income (adjusted for
tax-exempt income) and interest expense totaled $103.2&nbsp;million and $46.8&nbsp;million during 2005,
respectively, providing for net interest income of $56.4&nbsp;million. This performance compares
favorably to that of 2004 when interest income and interest expense were $70.0&nbsp;million and $26.6
million, respectively, providing for net interest income of $43.4&nbsp;million. In comparing 2005 with
2004, interest income increased 47.4%, interest expense was up 76.0% and net interest income
increased 30.0%. The level of net interest income is primarily a function of asset size, as the
weighted average interest rate received on earning assets is greater than the weighted average
interest cost of funding sources; however, factors such as types of assets and liabilities,
interest rate risk, common stock sales, liquidity, and customer behavior also impact net interest
income as well as the net interest margin. The net interest margin improved from 3.30% in 2004 to
3.50% in 2005, an increase of 6.1%, primarily due to earning assets repricing faster than
interest-bearing liabilities during the increasing interest rate environment that existed during
virtually all of 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest income is primarily generated from the loan portfolio, and to a lesser degree from
securities, federal funds sold and short term investments. Interest income increased $33.3&nbsp;million
during 2005 from that earned in 2004, totaling $103.2&nbsp;million in 2005 compared to $70.0&nbsp;million in
the previous year. The increase is primarily due to the growth in earning assets and a higher
interest rate environment during 2005 when compared to 2004. Reflecting the higher interest rates,
the yield on average earning assets increased from 5.32% recorded in 2004 to 6.40% in 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The growth in interest income is primarily attributable to an increase in earning assets and an
increase in earning asset yields. During 2005, average earning assets increased $298.9&nbsp;million,
increasing from $1,314.5&nbsp;million in 2004 to $1,613.4&nbsp;million during 2005. Growth in average total
loans and leases, totaling $255.0&nbsp;million, comprised 85.3% of the increase in average earning
assets during 2005. Interest income generated from the loan and lease portfolio increased $30.9
million during 2005 over the level earned in 2004, comprised of an increase of $15.1&nbsp;million from
the growth in the loan and lease portfolio and an increase of $15.8&nbsp;million due to the increase in
the yield earned on the loan and lease portfolio to 6.54% from 5.33%. The increase in the loan and
lease portfolio yield is primarily due to a higher interest rate environment during 2005 than in
2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Growth in the securities portfolio, partially offset by a slightly lower yield, also added to the
increase in interest income during 2005 over that of 2004. Average securities increased by $41.7
million in 2005, increasing from $130.4&nbsp;million in 2004 to $172.1&nbsp;million in 2005. The growth
equated to an increase in interest income of $2.2&nbsp;million, while a decrease in the yield earned on
the securities portfolio from 5.45% to 5.40% reduced interest income by $0.1&nbsp;million. Interest
income earned on federal funds sold increased by $0.2&nbsp;million due to a small increase in the
average balance and a higher yield during 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest expense is primarily generated from interest-bearing deposits, and to a lesser degree from
repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and subordinated debentures. Interest expense increased $20.2
million during 2005 from that expensed in 2004, totaling $46.8&nbsp;million in 2005 compared to $26.6
million in the previous year. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to the
impact of an increase in interest-bearing liabilities and a higher interest rate environment during
2005 when compared to 2004. Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1,429.2&nbsp;million during 2005, or
$282.7&nbsp;million higher than the average interest-bearing liabilities of $1,146.5&nbsp;million during
2004. This growth resulted in increased interest expense of $8.5&nbsp;million. An increase in interest
expense of $11.7&nbsp;million was recorded during 2005 primarily due to a higher interest rate
environment during 2005 than in 2004. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities increased
from the 2.32% recorded in 2004 to 3.28% in 2005.

increased $18.2&nbsp;million, or 6.4% of the increase in average interest-bearing liabilities in 2005.
The certificate of deposit growth during 2005 equated to an increase in interest expense of $7.2
million, with an additional $9.1&nbsp;million expensed due to the increase in the average rate paid as
lower-rate certificates of deposit matured and were either renewed or replaced with higher-costing
certificates of deposit
during most of 2005. FHLB advance growth during 2005 equated to an increase in interest expense

in the average rate paid during 2005. Growth in average interest-bearing checking accounts of
$3.3&nbsp;million equated to a less than $0.1&nbsp;million increase in interest expense, with an additional
$0.2&nbsp;million of interest expense recorded due to a higher average rate paid during 2005. Average
short term borrowings, comprised of repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased, increased
$11.0&nbsp;million during 2005, resulting in increased interest expense of $0.2&nbsp;million, with an

paid on subordinated debentures resulting from the September&nbsp;2004 refinance, equated to a $0.5
million reduction of interest expense during 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Provision for Loan and Lease Losses</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The provision for loan and lease losses totaled $3.8&nbsp;million during 2005, compared to the $4.7
million expensed during 2004. The decline primarily reflects lower loan and lease loan growth and
a decline in the volume of loan and lease net charge-offs during 2005 when compared to 2004. The
allowance as a percentage of total loans outstanding as of December&nbsp;31, 2005 was 1.31%, compared to
1.35% at year-end 2004. Loan and lease growth during 2005 equaled $244.7&nbsp;million, compared to loan
and lease growth of $281.2&nbsp;million during 2004. Net loan and lease charge-offs during 2005 totaled
$1.1&nbsp;million, or 0.08% of average total loans and leases. Net loan and lease charge-offs during
2004 totaled $1.2&nbsp;million, or 0.10% of average total loans and leases.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In each accounting period, we adjust the allowance by the amount we believe is necessary to
maintain the allowance at adequate levels. Through the loan and lease review and credit
departments, we attempt to allocate specific portions of the allowance based on specifically
identifiable problem loans and leases. The evaluation of the allowance is further based on, but
not limited to, consideration of the internally prepared Reserve Analysis, composition of the loan
and lease portfolio, third party analysis of the loan and lease administration processes and
portfolio and general economic conditions. In addition, the strong commercial loan and lease
growth is taken into account.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Reserve Analysis, used since our inception and completed monthly, applies reserve allocation
factors to outstanding loan and lease balances to calculate an overall allowance dollar amount.
For commercial loans and leases, which continue to comprise a vast majority of our total loans and
leases, reserve allocation factors are based upon the loan ratings as determined by our
standardized grade paradigms. For retail loans, reserve allocation factors are based upon the type
of credit. Adjustments for specific lending relationships, including impaired loans and leases,
are made on a case-by-case basis. The reserve allocation factors are primarily based on the recent
levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets, the comparison of
the recent levels and historical trends of net loan charge-offs and non-performing assets with a
customized peer group consisting of ten similarly-sized publicly traded banking organizations
conducting business in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and/or Ohio, the review and
consideration of our loan migration analysis and the experience of senior management making similar
loans and leases for an extensive period of time. We regularly review the Reserve Analysis and
make adjustments periodically based upon identifiable trends and experience.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Noninterest Income</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest income totaled $5.7&nbsp;million in 2005, an increase of $1.4&nbsp;million from the $4.3&nbsp;million
earned in 2004. Deposit and repurchase agreement service charges increased $0.1&nbsp;million in 2005,
primarily reflecting the growth in the number of deposit accounts and modest increases in the
deposit fee structure. The cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance policies increased
$0.3&nbsp;million in 2005, primarily reflecting a higher balance from the purchase of additional
policies during the year. Primarily reflecting an increase in volume of activity, residential
mortgage banking fees increased $0.2&nbsp;million during 2005. Other noninterest income includes a gain
of $0.7&nbsp;million which was recognized during 2005 from the sale of state tax credits derived from
the construction of the new main office in downtown Grand Rapids.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Noninterest Expense</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest expense during 2005 totaled $31.1&nbsp;million, an increase of $7.9&nbsp;million over the $23.2
million expensed in 2004. Noninterest expense during 2004 includes an $845,000 write-off
associated with the unamortized balance of issuance costs related to the redemption of the $16.0
million of 9.60% Cumulative Preferred Securities issued in 1999 by the MBWM Capital Trust I.
Excluding this one-time write-off, noninterest expense during 2004 totaled $22.4&nbsp;million, with the
growth in overhead costs during 2005 equating to $8.7&nbsp;million.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Of the $8.7&nbsp;million growth in overhead costs, $4.7&nbsp;million (54.0% of total) was in salaries and
benefits, which primarily reflects the increase in full-time equivalent employees from 194 at
year-end 2004 to 273 at year-end 2005 and annual pay increases. Occupancy, furniture and equipment
costs increased $1.6&nbsp;million (18.4% of total) in 2005, primarily reflecting the opening of our
Holland banking office in October of 2004, the opening of our new main office in downtown Grand
Rapids during the second quarter of 2005, the opening of our new leased facilities in Lansing and
Ann Arbor during the third quarter of 2005 and our increased staffing level.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">While the dollar amount of noninterest costs has increased, the growth of net interest income and
fee income has increased more. Noninterest costs during 2005 were $8.7&nbsp;million higher than the
level of overhead costs expensed during 2004; however, net interest income and fee income increased
a combined $14.2&nbsp;million during the same time period. Monitoring and controlling our noninterest
costs, while at the same time providing high quality service to our customers, is one of our
priorities. The efficiency ratio, a banking industry standardized calculation that attempts to
reflect the utilization of overhead costs, declined during 2004 but remained well below banking
industry averages. Computed by dividing noninterest expenses by net interest income plus
noninterest income, the efficiency ratio was 51.1% during 2005, compared to 49.6% during 2004. If
the one-time write-off addressed above is excluded from the calculation, our 2004 efficiency ratio
improves to 47.8%. The decline in the efficiency ratio is primarily related to the initial
overhead costs associated with our expansion into Lansing and Ann Arbor, especially salary and
benefit and occupancy expenses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Federal Income Tax Expense</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Federal income tax expense was $8.1&nbsp;million in 2005, an increase of $3.0&nbsp;million over the $5.1
million expensed during 2004. The increase during 2005 is primarily due to the growth in our
pre-federal income tax profitability and an increase in the effective tax rate, the latter of which
reflects a lower level of tax-exempt income as a percent of total income.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>CAPITAL RESOURCES</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Shareholders&#146; equity is a noninterest-bearing source of funds that provides support for our asset
growth. Shareholders&#146; equity was $171.9&nbsp;million and $155.1&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. The $16.8&nbsp;million increase during 2006 is primarily attributable to net income from
operations. Net income from operations totaled $19.8&nbsp;million during 2006. Also positively
impacting shareholders&#146; equity was a $0.3&nbsp;million mark-to-market adjustment for available for sale
securities as defined in SFAS No.&nbsp;115, plus proceeds totaling $0.4&nbsp;million relating to stock option
exercises and our dividend reinvestment and employee stock purchase plans.<BR>
Negatively impacting shareholders&#146; equity during 2006 was the payment of cash dividends, which
totaled $4.0&nbsp;million.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We and our bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by state and federal
banking agencies. Failure to meet the various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action
that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Our and our bank&#146;s capital
ratios as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005 are disclosed under Note 16 on pages F-55 and F-56 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our ability to pay cash and stock dividends is subject to limitations under various laws and
regulations and to prudent and sound banking practices. On April&nbsp;11, 2006, we declared a 5% common
stock dividend, payable on May&nbsp;16, 2006 to record holders as of April&nbsp;24, 2006. This represented
the sixth consecutive year we have paid a 5% stock dividend. Also during 2006, we paid a cash
dividend on our common stock each calendar quarter. These cash dividends totaled $0.51 per share
for 2006, and $4.0&nbsp;million in aggregate amount. On January&nbsp;9, 2007, we declared a $0.14 per common
share cash dividend that will be paid on March&nbsp;9, 2007 to shareholders of record on February&nbsp;9,
2007.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Liquidity is measured by our ability to raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital or
cash flow from the repayment of loans and investment securities. These funds are used to meet
deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve
requirements, fund loans and operate our company. Liquidity is primarily achieved through the
growth of deposits (both local and out-of-area) and liquid assets such as securities available for
sale, matured securities, and federal funds sold. Asset and liability management is the process of
managing the balance sheet to achieve a mix of earning assets and liabilities that maximizes
profitability, while providing adequate liquidity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our liquidity strategy is to fund loan growth with deposits, repurchase agreements and other
borrowed funds and to maintain an adequate level of short- and medium-term investments to meet
typical daily loan and deposit activity. Net deposit and repurchase agreement growth from
customers located in our market areas increased by $189.8&nbsp;million, or 35.9%, during 2006. This
strong growth was not fully sufficient to meet the earning asset growth of $204.2&nbsp;million. To
assist in providing the additional needed funds, we regularly obtained certificates of deposit from
customers outside of our market areas. As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, out-of-area deposits totaled
$1,013.8&nbsp;million, an increase in dollar volume of $51.0&nbsp;million from the $962.8&nbsp;million outstanding
at December&nbsp;31, 2005. However, as a percent of combined total deposits and repurchase agreements,
out-of-area deposits declined from 64.6% as of December&nbsp;31, 2005 to 58.5% at December&nbsp;31, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, our bank has access to the FHLB advance
borrowing programs. As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, advances totaled $95.0&nbsp;million, compared to $130.0
million outstanding as of December&nbsp;31, 2005. Our borrowing line of credit at December&nbsp;31, 2006
totaled $322.6&nbsp;million, with availability of $216.5&nbsp;million.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have the ability to borrow money on a daily basis through correspondent banks using established
federal funds purchased lines. During 2006, our federal funds purchased position averaged $3.7
million, compared to an average federal funds sold position of $9.7&nbsp;million. At December&nbsp;31, 2006,
our established unsecured federal funds purchased lines totaled $72.0&nbsp;million.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition to normal loan funding and deposit flow, we also need to maintain liquidity to
meet the demands of certain unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit. At December
31, 2006, we had a total of $451.1&nbsp;million in unfunded loan commitments and $73.2&nbsp;million in
unfunded standby letters of credit. Of the total unfunded loan commitments, $390.2&nbsp;million were
commitments available as lines of credit to be drawn at any time as customers&#146; cash needs vary, and
$60.9&nbsp;million were for loan commitments scheduled to close and become funded within the next twelve
months. We monitor fluctuations in loan balances and commitment levels, and include such data in
our overall liquidity management.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>MARKET RISK ANALYSIS</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, liquidity risk.
All of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure.
We have only limited agricultural-related loan assets and therefore have no significant exposure
to changes in commodity prices. Any impact that changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity
prices would have on interest rates is assumed to be insignificant. Interest rate risk is the
exposure of our financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. We derive our income
primarily from the excess of interest collected on interest-earning assets over the interest paid
on interest-bearing liabilities. The rates of interest we earn on our assets and owe on our
liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Since market interest
rates change over time, we are exposed to lower profitability if we cannot adapt to interest rate
changes. Accepting interest rate risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder
value; however, excessive levels of interest rate risk could pose a significant threat to our
earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains interest rate
risk at prudent levels is essential to our safety and soundness.
</DIV>

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Evaluating the exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of
the process used to control interest rate risk and the quantitative level of exposure. Our
interest rate risk management process seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures,
management information systems and internal controls are in place to maintain interest rate risk at
prudent levels with consistency and continuity. In evaluating the quantitative level of interest
rate risk, we assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on our
financial condition, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity and asset quality.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We use two interest rate risk measurement techniques. The first, which is commonly referred to as
GAP analysis, measures the difference between the dollar amounts of interest-sensitive assets and
liabilities that will be refinanced or repriced during a given time period. A significant
repricing gap could result in a negative impact to the net interest margin during periods of
changing market interest rates.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following table depicts our GAP position as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 (dollars in thousands).

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The second interest rate risk measurement used is commonly referred to as net interest income
simulation analysis. We believe that this methodology provides a more accurate measurement of
interest rate risk than the GAP analysis, and therefore, it serves as our primary interest rate
risk measurement technique. The simulation model assesses the direction and magnitude of
variations in net interest income resulting from potential changes in market interest rates. Key
assumptions in the model include prepayment speeds on various loan and investment assets; cash
flows and maturities of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities; and changes in market conditions
impacting loan and deposit volume and pricing. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, subject
to fluctuation and revision in a dynamic environment; therefore, the model cannot precisely
estimate net interest income or exactly predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net
interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and
frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and our strategies, among other
factors.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We conducted multiple simulations as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, in which it was assumed that changes in
market interest rates occurred ranging from up 200 basis points to down 200 basis points in equal
quarterly instalments over the next twelve months. The following table reflects the suggested
impact on net interest income over the next twelve months, which is well within our policy

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight

maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting, evaluating management&#146;s assessment, testing and evaluating the
design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A
company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
and (3)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the company&#146;s assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

internal control over financial reporting as of December&nbsp;31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all
material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control &#151; Integrated Framework issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also in our

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Principles of Consolidation</U>: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Mercantile Bank Corporation (&#147;Mercantile&#148;) and its subsidiary, Mercantile Bank of Michigan
(&#147;Bank&#148;), and of Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, LLC (&#147;Mortgage Company&#148;), Mercantile Bank Real
Estate Co., L.L.C. (&#147;Mercantile Real Estate&#148;) and Mercantile Insurance Center, Inc. (&#147;Mercantile
Insurance&#148;), subsidiaries of our bank, after elimination of significant intercompany transactions
and accounts.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We formed a business trust, Mercantile Bank Capital Trust I (&#147;the trust&#148;), in 2004 to issue trust
preferred securities. We issued subordinated debentures to the trust in return for the proceeds
raised from the issuance of the trust preferred securities. In accordance with FASB Interpretation
No.&nbsp;46, the trust is not consolidated, but instead we report the subordinated debentures issued to
the trust as a liability.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Nature of Operations</U>: Mercantile was incorporated on July&nbsp;15, 1997 to establish and own
the Bank based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Bank is a community-based financial institution.
The Bank began operations on December&nbsp;15, 1997. The Bank&#146;s primary deposit products are checking,
savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are commercial loans,
commercial leases, residential mortgage loans, and instalment loans. Substantially all loans and
leases are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, real estate or
consumer assets. Commercial loans and leases are expected to be repaid from cash flow from
operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by commercial or residential real estate.
The Bank&#146;s loan accounts are primarily with customers located in the Grand Rapids, Holland, Lansing
and Ann Arbor metropolitan areas. The Bank&#146;s retail deposits are also from customers located
within those areas. As an alternative source of funds, the Bank has also issued certificates to
depositors outside of the Bank&#146;s primary market areas. Substantially all revenues are derived from
banking products and services and investment securities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company was formed during 2000. A subsidiary of the Bank, Mercantile Bank
Mortgage Company was established to increase the profitability and efficiency of the mortgage loan
operations. Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company initiated business on October&nbsp;24, 2000 via the Bank&#146;s
contribution of most of its residential mortgage loan portfolio and participation interests in
certain commercial mortgage loans. On the same date, the Bank also transferred its residential
mortgage origination function to Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company. On January&nbsp;1, 2004, Mercantile
Bank Mortgage Company was reorganized as Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, LLC, a limited liability
company, which is 99% owned by the Bank and 1% owned by Mercantile Insurance. Mortgage loans
originated and held by the Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company are serviced by the Bank pursuant to a
servicing agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mercantile Insurance was formed during 2002 through the acquisition of an existing shelf insurance
agency. Insurance products are offered through an Agency and Institutions Agreement among
Mercantile Insurance, the Bank and Hub International. The insurance products are marketed through
a central facility operated by the Michigan Bankers Insurance Association, members of which include
the insurance subsidiaries of various Michigan-based financial institutions and Hub International.
Mercantile Insurance receives commissions based upon written premiums produced under the Agency and
Institutions Agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mercantile Real Estate was organized on July&nbsp;21, 2003, principally to develop, construct, and own a
new facility in downtown Grand Rapids that serves as our bank&#146;s main office and Mercantile&#146;s
headquarters. This facility was placed into service during the second quarter of 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mercantile filed an election to become a financial holding company pursuant to Title I of the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and implementing Federal Reserve Board regulations effective March&nbsp;23, 2000.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>NOTE 1 &#151; SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES </B>(Continued)
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Use of Estimates</U>: To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions
based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance
for loan and lease losses and the fair values of financial instruments are particularly subject to
change.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Cash Flow Reporting</U>: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with
other financial institutions, short-term investments (including securities with daily put
provisions) and federal funds sold. Cash flows are reported net for customer loan and deposit
transactions, interest-bearing time deposits with other financial institutions and short-term
borrowings with maturities of 90&nbsp;days or less.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Securities</U>: Debt securities classified as held to maturity are carried at amortized cost
when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Debt securities are
classified as available for sale when they might be sold prior to maturity. Equity securities with
readily determinable fair values are classified as available for sale. Securities available for
sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other
comprehensive income, net of tax. Other securities such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock are
carried at cost.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums and discounts. Premiums and discounts
on securities are amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for
mortgage-backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. Gains and losses on sales are
recorded on trade date and determined using the specific identification method.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Declines in the fair value of securities below their cost that are other than temporary are
reflected as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary losses, management considers: (1)
the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than cost, (2)&nbsp;the financial condition
and near term prospects of the issuer, and (3)&nbsp;our ability and intent to hold the security for a
period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Loans and Leases</U>: Loans and leases that management has the intent and ability to hold for
the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance
outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs and an allowance for loan and
lease losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees,
net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the
level-yield method without anticipating prepayments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest income on commercial loans and leases and mortgage loans is discontinued at the time the
loan is 90&nbsp;days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer
and credit card loans are typically charged-off no later than 120&nbsp;days past due. Past due status
is based on the contractual terms of the loan or lease. In all cases, loans and leases are placed
on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal and interest is
considered doubtful.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">All interest accrued but not received for loans and leases placed on nonaccrual is reversed against
interest income. Interest received on such loans and leases is accounted for on the cash-basis or
cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans and leases are returned to
accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current
and future payments are reasonably assured.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Loans Held for Sale</U>: Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary
market are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market, as determined by outstanding
commitments from investors. Net
unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Such
loans are sold service released. Residential mortgage banking fees include fees on direct brokered
mortgage loans and the net gain on sale of mortgage loans originated for sale.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses</U>: The allowance for loan and lease losses is a
valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan and lease losses are charged against
the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan or lease balance is
confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the
allowance balance required using past loan and lease loss experience, the nature and volume of the
portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, and
economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans
and leases, but the entire allowance is available for any loan or lease that, in management&#146;s
judgment, should be charged-off.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A loan or lease is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is
probable we will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in
determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting
scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment
delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the
significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into
consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan or lease and the borrower, including
the length of delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower&#146;s prior payment record and the amount
of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a
loan-by-loan basis for commercial loans and leases and construction loans by either the present
value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan&#146;s effective interest rate, the loan&#146;s
obtainable market price or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large
groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. We do not
separately identify individual residential and consumer loans for impairment disclosures.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Transfers of Financial Assets</U>: Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales
when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be
surrendered when: (1)&nbsp;the assets have been isolated from the corporation, (2)&nbsp;the transferee
obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to
pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3)&nbsp;the corporation does not maintain effective
control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Premises and Equipment</U>: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at
cost less accumulated depreciation. Buildings and related components are depreciated using the
straight-line method with useful lives ranging from 5 to 33&nbsp;years. Furniture, fixtures and
equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method with useful lives ranging from 3 to 7
years. Maintenance, repairs and minor alterations are charged to current operations as
expenditures occur and major improvements are capitalized.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Long-term Assets</U>: Premises and equipment and other long-term assets are reviewed for
impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future
undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Foreclosed Assets:</U> Assets acquired through or instead of foreclosure are initially
recorded at fair value when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines, a
valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs after acquisition are expensed.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Bank Owned Life Insurance:</U> The Bank has purchased life insurance policies on certain key
officers. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value, or the amount that
can be realized.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Repurchase Agreements</U>: Substantially all repurchase agreement liabilities represent
amounts advanced by various customers. Securities are pledged to cover these liabilities, which
are not covered by federal deposit insurance.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Financial Instruments and Loan Commitments</U>: Financial instruments include
off-balance-sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of
credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the
exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial
instruments are recorded when they are funded. Instruments, such as standby letters of credit that
are considered financial guarantees in accordance with FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;45, are recorded at
fair value.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Stock Compensation:</U> Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (&#147;SFAS&#148;) no. 123(R),
<I>Share-based Payment, </I>using the modified prospective transition method, was adopted effective
January&nbsp;1, 2006. Accordingly, stock-based employee compensation cost was recorded starting in 2006
using the fair value method. For 2006, adopting this standard resulted in a reduction in net
income before taxes and net income of $242,000 and a decrease in basic and diluted earnings per
share of $0.03.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, employee compensation expense under stock options was reported using the
intrinsic value method; therefore, no stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income for
the years ending December&nbsp;31, 2005 and 2004, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to
or greater than the market price of the underlying common stock at date of grant.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if expense was

amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation
allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed separately. Fair
value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates,
credit risk, prepayments and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for
particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the

existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments do not include the value of anticipated
future business or the values of assets and liabilities not considered financial instruments.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Earnings Per Share</U>: Basic earnings per share is based on weighted average common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include the dilutive effect of
additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings per share are restated
for all stock dividends, including the 5% stock dividends paid on May&nbsp;16, 2006, August&nbsp;1, 2005 and
May&nbsp;3, 2004. The fair value of shares issued in stock dividends is transferred from retained
earnings to common stock to the extent of available retained earnings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Comprehensive Income</U>: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive
income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available
for sale which are also recognized as separate components of equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Contingencies:</U> Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable
and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. We do not believe there now are such
matters that would have a material effect on the financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Reclassifications</U>: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to
conform to the current presentation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Operating Segments</U>: While we monitor the revenue streams of the various products and
services offered, the identifiable segments are not material and operations are managed and
financial performance is evaluated on a company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of our financial
service operations are aggregated in one reportable operating segment.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Adoption of New Accounting Standards</U>: In September&nbsp;2006, the Securities and Exchange
Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) released Staff Accounting Bulletin No.&nbsp;108, <I>Considering the Effects of Prior
Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements </I>(&#147;SAB 108&#148;),
which is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November&nbsp;15, 2006. SAB 108 provides
guidance on how the effects of prior-year uncorrected financial statement misstatements should be
considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. SAB 108 requires public companies to
quantify misstatements using both an income statement (rollover)&nbsp;and balance sheet (iron curtain)
approach and evaluate whether either approach results in a misstatement that, when all relevant
quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. If prior year errors that had
been previously considered immaterial now are considered material based on either approach, no
restatement is required so long as management properly applied its previous approach and all
relevant facts and circumstances were considered. Adjustments considered immaterial in prior years
under the method previously used, but now considered material under the dual approach required by
SAB 108, are to be recorded upon initial adoption of SAB 108. The amount so recorded, if any, is
shown as a cumulative effect adjustment recorded in opening retained earnings as of January&nbsp;1,
2006. The adoption of SAB 108 had no effect on the financial statements for the year ending
December&nbsp;31, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In July&nbsp;2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;48, <I>Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes -
an interpretation of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;109 (&#147;FIN 48&#148;)</I>, which prescribes a recognition threshold
and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48
also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods,
disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006.
We have determined that the adoption of FIN 48 will not have a material effect on the financial
statements.

the potential effect upon adoption. In general, these standards revise accounting for derivatives
embedded in other financial instruments for 2007, revise the recognition and accounting for

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We evaluate securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more
frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the
length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial
condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability we have to retain our
investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in
fair value. In analyzing an issuer&#146;s financial condition, we may consider whether the securities
are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies
have occurred and the results of reviews of the issuer&#146;s financial condition.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At December&nbsp;31, 2006, $117.7&nbsp;million in debt securities and a mutual fund have unrealized losses
with aggregate depreciation of 1.1% from the amortized cost basis of total securities. After we
considered whether the securities were issued by the federal government or its agencies and whether
downgrades by bond rating agencies had occurred, we determined that unrealized losses were due to
an increasing
interest rate environment. As we have the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for
the foreseeable future if classified as available for sale, no declines are deemed to be other than
temporary.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Securities sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements) generally have original
maturities of less than one year. Repurchase agreements are treated as financings and the
obligations to repurchase securities sold are reflected as liabilities. Securities involved with
the repurchase agreements are recorded as assets of the Bank and are primarily held in safekeeping
by correspondent banks. Repurchase agreements are offered principally to certain large deposit
customers as uninsured deposit equivalent investments. Repurchase agreements were secured by
securities with a market value of $91.2&nbsp;million and $80.7&nbsp;million at year-end 2006 and 2005,
respectively.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>NOTE 9 &#151; STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Stock-based compensation plans are used to provide directors and employees with an increased
incentive to contribute to the long-term performance and growth of Mercantile, to join the
interests of directors and employees with the interests of Mercantile&#146;s shareholders through the
opportunity for increased stock ownership and to attract and retain directors and employees. From
1997 through 2005, stock option grants were provided to directors and certain employees through
several stock option plans, including the 1997 Employee Stock Option Plan, 2000 Employee Stock
Option Plan, 2004 Employee Stock Option Plan and Independent Director Stock Option Plan. During
2006, stock option and restricted stock grants were provided to certain employees through the Stock
Incentive Plan of 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Under our 1997 Employee Stock Option Plan, 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan and 2004 Employee Stock
Option Plan, stock options granted to employees were granted at the market price on the date of
grant, generally fully vest after one year and expire ten years from the date of grant. Stock
options granted to non-executive officers during 2005 vested about three weeks after being granted.
Under our Independent Director Stock Option Plan, stock options granted to non-employee directors
are at 125% of the market price on the date of grant, fully vest after five years and expire ten
years from the date of grant. The Stock Incentive Plan of 2006, approved by our shareholders at
the annual meeting on April&nbsp;27, 2006, replaced all of our outstanding stock option plans for stock
options not previously granted. Under the Stock Incentive Plan of 2006, incentive awards may
include, but are not limited to, stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and
stock awards. Incentive awards that are stock options or stock appreciation rights are granted
with an exercise price not less than the closing price of Mercantile stock on the day before the
date of grant, with price, vesting and expiration date parameters determined by Mercantile&#146;s
Compensation Committee on a grant-by-grant basis. Generally, the stock options granted to
employees during 2006 fully vest after two years and expire after seven years. The restricted
stock awards granted to certain employees during 2006, totaling 20,190 shares and having a fair
value per share of $39.84, fully vest after four years. No payments were required from employees
for the restricted stock awards. At year-end 2006, there were 550,884 shares authorized for future
incentive awards.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, there was $300,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to
unvested stock options granted under our various stock-based compensation plans. The compensation
cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5&nbsp;years. As of December&nbsp;31,
2006, there was $690,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted
stock granted under our Stock Incentive Plan of 2006. The compensation cost is expected to be
recognized over a period of 3.9&nbsp;years.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed option
valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected
volatilities are based on historical volatilities on our common stock. Historical data is used to
estimate stock option expense and post-vesting termination behavior. The expected term of stock
options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that stock options
granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the stock options are not
transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the stock option is based on
the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the stock option grant.

assumptions as of grant date.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of
business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Loan commitments to extend credit are
agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in
the contract. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the
commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount
recognized, if any, in the balance sheet. Our maximum exposure to loan loss in the event of
nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments.
We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for
on-balance sheet instruments. Collateral, such as accounts receivable, securities, inventory,
property and equipment, is generally obtained based on management&#146;s credit assessment of the
borrower. If required, estimated loss exposure resulting from these instruments is expensed and
recorded as a liability. The balance of the liability account related to loan commitments was $0.5
million at year-end 2006 and 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At year-end 2006 and 2005, the rates on existing off-balance sheet instruments were substantially
equivalent to current market rates, considering the underlying credit standing of the

term debt secured by real estate, customers are generally offered a floating rate tied to the prime

balloon within five years, with payments based on amortizations ranging from 10 to 25&nbsp;years. For

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, Federal Home Loan Bank
stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, bank owned life insurance policies, demand
deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and variable rate loans or deposits that
reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes,
and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about
the issuer. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with
infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using
current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair value of subordinated
debentures and Federal Home Loan Bank advances is based on current rates for similar financing.
Fair value of off balance sheet items is estimated to be nominal.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mercantile Trust, a business trust formed by the company, was incorporated in 2004 for the purpose
of issuing Series&nbsp;A and Series&nbsp;B Preferred Securities. On September&nbsp;16, 2004, Mercantile Trust
sold the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Securities in a private sale for $16.0&nbsp;million, and also sold $495,000
of Series&nbsp;A Common Securities to Mercantile. The proceeds of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Securities and
the Series&nbsp;A Common Securities were used by Mercantile Trust to purchase $16,495,000 of Series&nbsp;A
Floating Rate Notes that were issued by Mercantile on September&nbsp;16, 2004. Mercantile used the
proceeds of the Series&nbsp;A Floating Rate Notes to finance the redemption on September&nbsp;17, 2004 of the
$16.0&nbsp;million of 9.60% Cumulative Preferred Securities issued in 1999 by MBWM Capital Trust I. On
December&nbsp;10, 2004, Mercantile Trust sold the Series&nbsp;B Preferred Securities in a private sale for
$16.0&nbsp;million, and also sold $495,000 of Series&nbsp;B Common Securities to Mercantile. The proceeds of

to purchase $16,495,000 of Series&nbsp;B Floating Rate Notes that were issued by Mercantile on December
10, 2004. Substantially all of the net proceeds of the Series&nbsp;B Floating Rate Notes were
contributed to our bank as capital to provide support for asset growth, fund investments in loans
and securities and for general corporate purposes.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mercantile and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal
banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve
quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under
regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to
qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors, and the
regulators can lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital
requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the
financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well capitalized,
adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically
undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If
an institution is adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered
deposits. Subject to limited exceptions, no institution may make a capital distribution if, after
making the distribution, it would be undercapitalized. If an institution is undercapitalized, it
is subject to being closely monitored by its principal federal regulator, its asset growth and
expansion are restricted, and plans for capital restoration are required. In addition, further
specific types of restrictions may be imposed on the institution in the discretion of the federal
regulator. At year-end 2006 and 2005, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the
Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no
conditions or events since that notification that we believe has changed the Bank&#146;s category.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Federal and state banking laws and regulations place certain restrictions on the amount of
dividends the Bank can transfer to Mercantile and on the capital levels that must be maintained.
At year-end 2006, under the most restrictive of these regulations (to remain well capitalized), the
Bank could distribute approximately $22.5&nbsp;million to Mercantile as dividends without prior
regulatory approval.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The capital levels as of year-end 2006 and 2005 include $32.0&nbsp;million of trust preferred securities
issued by Mercantile Trust in September&nbsp;2004 and December&nbsp;2004 subject to certain limitations.
Federal Reserve guidelines limit the amount of trust preferred securities which can be included in
Tier 1 capital of Mercantile to 25% of total Tier 1 capital. At year-end 2006 and 2005, all $32.0
million of the trust preferred securities were included as Tier 1 capital of Mercantile.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Set forth below is a summary of the current director fee arrangements for non-employee
directors serving on the Boards of Directors of Mercantile Bank Corporation (&#147;Mercantile&#148;) and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Mercantile Bank of Michigan (&#147;Bank&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For 2007, non-employee directors of the Bank are paid an annual retainer of $12,000, and a fee
of $700 for each meeting of the Board of Directors of the Bank that they attend. In addition,
non-employee directors are paid a meeting fee of $700 for each meeting of the Audit Committee, $600
for each meeting of the Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee, and $400 for each meeting
of other committees of the Board of Directors of the Bank that they attend. Non-employee directors
are also paid fees of the same amount for meetings of Mercantile&#146;s Board of Directors and its
committees, when for Board meetings there is not also a meeting of the Board of Directors of the
Bank on the same day, and for committee meetings when there is not also a meeting of a committee of
the Board of Directors of the Bank having the same name or function on the same day. For meetings
that are held by telephone or other remote communications equipment, the meeting fees are half the
amount described above. Annual retainer fees are also paid to the Chairmen of three of the
committees of Mercantile&#146;s Board of Directors. The annual retainer is, for the Chairman of the
Audit Committee &#151; $6,000, for the Chairman of the Compensation Committee &#151; $4,000, and for the
Chairman of the Nominating Committee &#151; $4,000.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The same persons currently serve on the Boards of Directors of Mercantile and the Bank. Under
the Bank&#146;s deferred compensation plan for non-employee directors, directors may elect to defer the
receipt of the annual retainer and meeting fees until they are no longer serving on the Board.
Directors are eligible to receive stock-based awards under the Stock Incentive Plan of 2006.
