<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><U>Basis of Presentation</U>: The unaudited financial statements for the three months ended
March&nbsp;31, 2010 include the consolidated results of operations of Mercantile Bank Corporation and
its consolidated subsidiaries. These subsidiaries include Mercantile Bank of Michigan (&#147;our
bank&#148;), our bank&#146;s three subsidiaries, Mercantile Bank Mortgage Company, LLC (&#147;our mortgage
company&#148;), Mercantile Bank Real Estate Co., LLC (&#147;our real estate company&#148;), and Mercantile
Insurance Center, Inc. (&#147;our insurance center&#148;). These consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Item 303(b) of Regulation
S-K and do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America for a complete presentation of our financial condition and results
of operations. In the opinion of management, the information reflects all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary in order to make the
financial statements not misleading and for a fair presentation of the results of operations for
such periods. The results for the period ended March&nbsp;31, 2010 should not be considered as
indicative of results for a full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2009.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">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. 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; margin-left: 2%"><U>Earnings Per Share</U>: Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of
common shares and participating securities outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
share include the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under our
stock-based compensation plans and our common stock warrant, and are determined using the
treasury stock method. Our unvested stock awards, which contain non-forfeitable rights to
dividends whether paid or accrued, are also included in the number of shares outstanding for
both basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. In the event of a net loss, our
unvested stock awards are excluded from the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per
share.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">Due to our net loss, approximately 88,000 and 112,000 unvested restricted shares were not
included in determining both basic and diluted earnings per share for the three month periods
ended March&nbsp;31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In addition, stock options and a stock warrant for
approximately 292,000 and 616,000 shares of common stock, respectively, were antidilutive and
not included in determining diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March&nbsp;31,
2010. Stock options for approximately 325,000 shares of common stock were antidilutive and not
included in determining diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009.
Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding equals the weighted average common shares
outstanding during the three month periods ended March&nbsp;31, 2010 and 2009 due to the net losses
recorded during those time periods.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><U>Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses</U>: The allowance for loan and lease losses
(&#147;allowance&#148;) is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan and lease
losses are charged against the allowance when we believe the uncollectability of a loan or lease
is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. We estimate 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,
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 our
judgment, should be charged-off.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">A loan or lease is 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 in determining impairment
include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting principal and
interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment
shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. We determine 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 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; margin-left: 2%"><U>Troubled Debt Restructurings</U>: A loan or lease is accounted for as a troubled debt
restructuring if we, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower&#146;s financial
condition, grant a significant concession to the borrower that we would not otherwise consider.
A troubled debt restructuring may involve the receipt of assets from the debtor in partial or
full satisfaction of the loan or lease, or a modification of terms such as a reduction of the
stated interest rate or balance of the loan or lease, a reduction of accrued interest, an
extension of the maturity date at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for
a new loan with similar risk, or some combination of these concessions. Troubled debt
restructurings generally remain categorized as nonperforming loans and leases until a six-month
payment history has been maintained.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><U>Derivatives</U>: Derivative financial instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities
at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the use
of the derivatives and whether the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting. Historically, our
derivatives have consisted of interest rate swap agreements, which are used as part of our asset
liability management to help manage interest rate risk. We do not use derivatives for trading
purposes.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as a hedge of the variability of
cash flows to be received on various loans and are effective are reported in other comprehensive
income. They are later reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged
transaction affects earnings and are included in the line item in which the hedged cash flows
are recorded. If hedge accounting does not apply, changes in the fair value of derivatives are
recognized immediately in current earnings as noninterest income or expense.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">If designated as a hedge, we formally document the relationship between derivatives as hedged
items, as well as the risk-management objective and the strategy for undertaking hedge
transactions. This documentation includes linking cash flow hedges to specific assets on the
balance sheet. If designated as a hedge, we also formally assess, both at the hedge&#146;s inception
and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative instruments that are used are highly effective
in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. Ineffective hedge gains and losses are
recognized immediately in current earnings as noninterest income or expense. We discontinue
hedge accounting when we determine the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes
in the cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative is settled or terminates, or treatment of
the derivatives as a hedge is no longer appropriate or intended.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%"><U>Adoption of New Accounting Standards</U>: In December&nbsp;2009, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) issued Accounting Standards Update (&#147;ASU&#148;) ASU 2009-16, <I>Accounting for
Transfers of Financial Assets </I>(formerly Statement No.&nbsp;166, <I>Accounting for Transfers of Financial
Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;140</I>). This standard amends the guidance on
accounting for transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, where
entities have continued exposure to risks related to transferred financial assets. This
standard also expands the disclosure requirements for such transactions. It is effective as of
the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after November&nbsp;15, 2009. The
adoption of this standard on January&nbsp;1, 2010 had no impact on our results of operations or
financial position.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">In January&nbsp;2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, <I>Improving Disclosure about Fair Value
Measurements</I>. This standard requires new disclosures on the amount and reason for transfers in
and out of Level 1 and Level 2 recurring fair value measurements. The standard also requires
disclosure of activities (i.e., on a gross basis), including purchases, sales, issuances, and
settlements, in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value recurring measurements. The standard
clarifies existing disclosure requirements on levels of disaggregation and disclosures about
inputs and valuation techniques. The new disclosures regarding Level 1 and Level 2 fair value
measurements and clarification of existing disclosures are effective for periods beginning after
December&nbsp;15, 2009. The disclosures about the reconciliation of information in Level 3 recurring
fair value measurements are required for periods beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2010. Upon
adoption of the applicable portions of this standard on January&nbsp;1, 2010, we provided the
required disclosures as presented in Note 12. For those additional disclosures required for
fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2010, we anticipate first including those disclosures
in our Form 10-Q for the period ending March&nbsp;31, 2011.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">After analyzing our current and forecasted federal income tax position, we sold certain
tax-exempt municipal bonds with an aggregate book value of $20.0&nbsp;million in late March of 2010.
Immediately subsequent to the sale, we reclassified the remaining tax-exempt municipal bonds
with an amortized cost of $39.2&nbsp;million from held to maturity to available for sale. The net
unrealized gain at the date of transfer amounted to $0.4&nbsp;million and was reported in other
comprehensive income net of tax effect.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">We evaluate securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis.
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. Effective in the second quarter of 2009, with
the adoption of new fair value guidance, for those debt securities whose fair value is less than
their amortized cost basis, we also consider our intent to sell the security, whether it is more
likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery and if we do not
expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. 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; margin-left: 2%">There were 4 U.S. Government agency debt obligations, 23 municipal general obligation bonds, and
3 municipal revenue bonds in a continuous loss position for 12&nbsp;months or more at March&nbsp;31, 2010.
At March&nbsp;31, 2010, 56 debt securities with a fair value totaling $52.6&nbsp;million have unrealized
losses with aggregate depreciation of $0.6&nbsp;million, or 0.3% from the amortized cost basis of
total securities. At March&nbsp;31, 2010, 224 debt securities and a mutual fund with a fair value
totaling $137.6&nbsp;million have unrealized gains with aggregate appreciation of $4.2&nbsp;million, or
2.0% 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 changing interest
rate environments. As we do not intend to sell our debt securities before recovery of their
cost basis and we believe it is more likely than not that we will not have to sell our debt
securities before recovery of the cost basis, no declines are deemed to be other-than-temporary.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 2%">The amortized cost and fair values of debt securities at March&nbsp;31, 2010, by contractual
maturity, are shown below. The contractual maturity is utilized below for U.S. Government
agency debt
obligations and municipal bonds. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities
because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or
prepayment fees. Securities not due at a single maturity date, primarily mortgage-backed
securities, are shown separately.

    <TD colspan="2">Our bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of
business to meet the financing needs of its 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
our 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.</TD>

<TD colspan="2">These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount
recognized, if any, in the balance sheet. Our bank&#146;s 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. Our bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Collateral, such as accounts
receivable, securities, inventory, and property and equipment, is generally obtained based on
our 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
was $0 as of March&nbsp;31, 2010 and December&nbsp;31, 2009.</TD>

    <TD>Certain of our commercial loan customers have entered into interest rate swap agreements
directly with our correspondent banks. To assist our commercial loan customers in these
transactions, and to encourage our correspondent banks to enter into the interest rate swap
transactions with minimal credit underwriting analyses on their part, we have entered into risk
participation agreements with the correspondent banks whereby we agree to make payments to the
correspondent banks owed by our commercial loan customers under the interest rate swap agreement
in the event that our commercial loan customers do not make the payments. We are not a party to
the interest rate swap agreements under these arrangements. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, the total
notional amount of the underlying interest rate swap agreements was $57.4&nbsp;million, with a net
fair value from our commercial loan customers&#146; perspective of negative $4.2&nbsp;million. Payments
made in regards to the risk participation agreements total $385,000; however, we believe the
affected customer will reimburse us for such payments and therefore we have accrued no valuation
allowance for our receivable from this customer and have accrued no liability for potential
future payments. These risk participation agreements are considered financial guarantees in
accordance with applicable accounting guidance and are therefore recorded as liabilities at fair
value, generally equal to the fees collected at the time of their execution. These liabilities
are accreted into income during the term of the interest rate swap agreements, generally ranging
from four to fifteen years.</TD>

    <TD>During 2008, we entered into several interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of
$275.0&nbsp;million. The interest rate swaps qualified as cash flow hedges that converted the
variable rate cash inflows on certain of our prime-based commercial loans to a fixed rate of
interest. The interest rate swaps paid interest to us at stated fixed rates and required that
we make interest payments based on the average of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate.</TD>

    <TD>On October&nbsp;30, 2008, we terminated all of our interest rate swaps. The termination coincided
with our decision to not lower our prime rate in association with the Federal Open Market
Committee&#146;s reduction of the targeted federal funds rate by 50 basis points on October&nbsp;29, 2008.
Virtually all of our prime rate-based commercial floating rate loans are tied to the Mercantile
Bank Prime Rate, while our interest rate swaps utilized the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate. The
resulting difference negatively impacted the effectiveness of our interest rate swaps, so we
believed it was prudent to terminate them. The aggregate fair value of the interest rate swaps
on October&nbsp;30, 2008 was $2.4&nbsp;million, which has been accreted into interest income on loans and
leases based on the original term of the interest rate swaps. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, we had
fully accreted the $2.4&nbsp;million into interest income, including $0.1&nbsp;million during the first
quarter of 2010.</TD>

with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows

    <TD>Current accounting pronouncements require disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial
instruments as disclosed in Note 12. Given current market conditions, a portion of our loan
portfolio is not readily marketable and market prices do not exist. We have not attempted to
market our loans to potential buyers, if any exist, to determine the fair value of those
instruments. Since negotiated prices in illiquid markets depend upon the then present
motivations of the buyer and seller, it is reasonable to assume that actual sales prices could
vary widely from any estimate of fair value made without the benefit of negotiations.
Additionally, changes in market interest rates can dramatically impact the value of financial
instruments in a short period of time. Accordingly, the fair value measurements for loans
included in the table above are unlikely to represent the instruments&#146; liquidation values.</TD>

    <TD>Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement
assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal
market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, the most
advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price of the principal (or most
advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be
adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure
to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that
are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a
forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are
(i)&nbsp;independent, (ii)&nbsp;knowledgeable, (iii)&nbsp;able to transact and (iv)&nbsp;willing to transact.</TD>

    <TD>We are required to use valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the
income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant
information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and
liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as
cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is
based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset
(replacement cost). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation
techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from
independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect our own assumptions about the
assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best
information available in the circumstances. In that regard, we utilize a fair value hierarchy
for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value
hierarchy is as follows:</TD>

    <TD>We 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 our financial statements.</TD>

    <TD>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 not well 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 close monitoring 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 at the
discretion of the federal regulator. At March&nbsp;31, 2010 and December&nbsp;31, 2009, our bank was in
the well capitalized category under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.
There are no conditions or events since March&nbsp;31, 2010 that we believe has changed our bank&#146;s
categorization.</TD>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are complex and require us
to apply significant judgment to various accounting, reporting and disclosure matters. We must use
assumptions and estimates to apply these principles where actual measurements are not possible or
practical. Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements included in this report. For
a discussion of our significant accounting policies, see footnotes to our Consolidated Financial
Statements included on pages F-42 through F-49 in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2009 (Commission file number 000-26719). Our allowance for loan and lease losses policy and
accounting for income taxes are highly dependent upon subjective or complex judgments, assumptions
and estimates. Changes in such estimates may have a significant impact on the financial
statements, and actual results may differ from those estimates. We have reviewed the application
of these policies with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

</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 (&#147;allowance&#148;)
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 is an
estimate based on past loan and lease loss experience, the nature and volume of the loan and lease
portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values and
assessments of the impact of current and anticipated economic conditions on the loan and lease
portfolio. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans or leases, but the entire
allowance is available for any loan or lease that, in our judgment, should be charged-off. Loan
and lease losses are charged against the allowance when we believe the uncollectability of a loan
or lease balance is likely. The balance of the allowance represents our 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 in the future. Likewise, an upturn in
loan and lease quality or improved economic conditions may result in a decline in the required
allowance in the future. 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 is increased through a provision charged to operating expense. Uncollectable loans
and leases are charged-off through the allowance. Recoveries of loans and leases previously
charged-off are added to the allowance. A loan or lease 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 or lease agreement. Impairment is evaluated in aggregate for
smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer and credit card
loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan or lease is impaired, a portion
of the allowance is allocated so that the loan or lease is reported, net, at the present value of
estimated future cash flows using the loan&#146;s or lease&#146;s existing rate or at the fair value of
collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. The timing of obtaining outside
appraisals varies, generally depending on the nature and complexity of the property being
evaluated, general breadth of activity within the marketplace and the age of the most recent
appraisal. In certain circumstances, we may internally update outside appraisals based on recent
information impacting a particular or similar property, or due to identifiable trends (e.g., recent
sales of similar properties) within our markets. The expected future cash flows exclude potential
cash flows from certain guarantors. To the extent these guarantors are able to provide repayments,
a recovery would be recorded upon receipt. Loans and leases are evaluated for impairment when
payments are delayed, typically 30&nbsp;days or more, or when serious deficiencies are identified within
the credit relationship. Our policy for recognizing income on impaired loans is to accrue interest
unless a loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status. We put loans or leases into nonaccrual
status when the full collection of principal and interest is not expected.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Income Tax Accounting</U>: Current income tax liabilities or assets are established for
the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year. In the preparation of income tax
returns, tax positions are taken based on interpretation of federal and state income tax laws for
which the outcome may be uncertain. We periodically review and evaluate the status of our tax
positions and make adjustments as necessary. Deferred income tax liabilities and assets are also
established for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial
statements or tax returns. A deferred income tax liability or asset is recognized for the
estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences that can be carried forward
(used)&nbsp;in future years. The valuation of our net deferred income tax asset is considered critical
as it requires us to make estimates based on provisions of the enacted tax laws. The assessment of
the realizability of the net deferred income tax asset involves the use of estimates, assumptions,
interpretations and judgments concerning accounting pronouncements, federal and state tax codes and
the extent of future taxable income. There can be no assurance that future events, such as court
decisions, positions of federal and state tax authorities, and the extent of future taxable income will not differ from our current assessment, the impact of which
could be significant to the consolidated results of operations and reported earnings.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">MERCANTILE BANK CORPORATION
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Accounting guidance requires that we assess whether a valuation allowance should be established
against our deferred tax asset based on the consideration of all available evidence using a &#147;more
likely than not&#148; standard. In making such judgments, we consider both positive and negative
evidence and analyze changes in near-term market conditions as well as other factors which may
impact future operating results. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively
verified. Despite improvements in key areas such as an expanded net interest margin, increased
regulatory capital levels, a continued shift to local funding sources and reduced controllable
overhead costs, the increased loan and lease provision expense and problem asset administrative
costs have been sizable. The continuing recent losses resulting from the distressed operating
environment have significantly restricted our ability to rely on projections of future taxable
income to support the recovery of our deferred tax assets. Consequently, we have determined it
necessary to establish and maintain a valuation allowance against our entire net deferred tax
asset. We will continue to monitor our deferred tax asset quarterly for changes affecting their
realizability.
</DIV>


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

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our earnings performance has been negatively impacted by substantial provisions to the allowance.
Ongoing state, regional and national economic struggles have negatively impacted some of our
borrowers&#146; cash flows and underlying collateral values, leading to increased nonperforming assets,
higher loan and lease charge-offs and increased overall credit risk within our loan portfolio. We
continue to work with our borrowers to develop constructive dialogue to strengthen our
relationships and enhance our ability to resolve complex issues; however, with the environment for
the banking industry likely to remain stressed until economic conditions improve, credit quality
will continue to be our major concern. We will remain vigilant in the identification and
administration of problem assets, but provisions to the allowance will likely remain above
historical levels for some period of time, dampening future earnings performance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our earnings performance also reflects positive steps we have taken to not only partially mitigate
the impact of asset quality-related costs in the near term, but to benefit us on a longer-term
basis as well. First, our net interest margin has been expanding as we have replaced maturing
high-rate deposits with lower-cost funds, while at the same time our commercial loan pricing
initiatives offset the negative impact of an increase in nonaccrual loans. Despite a substantial
reduction in total loans and leases, our net interest income is on an increasing trend due to the
improving net interest margin, and we expect our net interest margin to improve further over the
next several quarters. Next, our regulatory risk-based capital ratios are also increasing, as the
sale of preferred stock under the Department of Treasury&#146;s Capital Purchase Program and the
reduction of loans and leases outstanding have more than offset the impact of our net losses. In
addition, we are increasing our local deposit balances, reflecting the successful implementation of
various initiatives, campaigns and product enhancements. The local deposit growth, combined with
the reduction of loans and leases outstanding, are providing for a substantial reduction of, and
reliance on, wholesale funds. Lastly, we are starting to see the positive effect of our branch
consolidation and other overhead cost reduction initiatives, as we continue to make strides to
reduce controllable noninterest expense.
</DIV>


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

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the first three months of 2010, our total assets decreased $3.3&nbsp;million, and totaled $1.90
billion as of March&nbsp;31, 2010. The decline in total assets was comprised primarily of a $42.2
million reduction in total loans and leases and a $28.8&nbsp;million decrease in securities, more than
offsetting a $74.7&nbsp;million increase in cash and cash equivalents. Total deposits increased $18.6
million, while Federal Home Loan Bank (&#147;FHLB&#148;) advances decreased $15.0&nbsp;million.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">MERCANTILE BANK CORPORATION
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Commercial loans and leases declined by $37.6&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010, and at
March&nbsp;31, 2010 totaled $1.37&nbsp;billion, or 91.6% of the total loan and lease portfolio. The decline
in outstanding balances primarily reflects the slowdown in business activity in our markets and the
impact of a concerted effort on our part to reduce exposure to certain non-owner occupied
commercial real estate (&#147;CRE&#148;) and automotive-related businesses. The largest decline occurred in
the commercial and industrial (&#147;C&#038;I&#148;) loan portfolio, where total outstanding balances were reduced
by about $19.0&nbsp;million, in large part reflecting the slowdown in business activity and a
corresponding reduction in accounts receivable and inventory financings. We would expect to see an
increase in commercial line of credit usage when economic conditions improve. During the first
three months of 2010, commercial loans collateralized by non-owner occupied real estate declined by
about $16.0&nbsp;million. Our systematic approach to reducing our exposure to certain CRE lending will
be pro-longed, given the nature of CRE lending and the current depressed economic conditions;
however, we believe that such a reduction is in our best interest when taking into account the
increased inherent credit risk, relatively low loan rates and nominal deposit balances associated
with targeted borrowing relationships.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The commercial loan and lease portfolio represents loans to businesses generally located within our
market areas. Approximately 74% 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 is consistent with our strategy of focusing a
substantial amount of our efforts on commercial banking. Corporate and business lending is 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 employees. Our
commercial lending business generates the largest portion of local deposits and is our primary
source of demand deposits.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Residential mortgage loans and consumer loans declined in aggregate $4.5&nbsp;million during the
first three months of 2010, and at March&nbsp;31, 2010, totaled $126.3&nbsp;million, or 8.4% of the total
loan and lease portfolio. Although residential mortgage loan and consumer loan portfolios may
increase in future periods, we expect the commercial sector of the lending efforts and resultant
assets to remain the dominant loan portfolio category.
</DIV>

<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 and leases to provide appropriate
loan and lease 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 leases and the possibility that
changes in these could occur quickly because of changing economic conditions. Identified problem
loans and leases, which exhibit characteristics (financial or otherwise) that could cause the loans
and leases to become nonperforming or require restructuring in the future, are included on the
internal &#147;watch list&#148;. Senior management and the Board of Directors review this list regularly.
Market value estimates of collateral on impaired loans, as well as on foreclosed and repossessed
assets, are reviewed periodically; however, we have a process in place to monitor whether value
estimates at each quarter-end are reflective of current market conditions. Our credit policies
establish criteria for obtaining appraisals and determining internal value estimates. We may also adjust outside and internal valuations based on identifiable trends within our markets,
such as recent sales of similar properties or assets, listing prices and offers received. In
addition, we may discount certain appraised and internal value estimates to address current
distressed market conditions.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">MERCANTILE BANK CORPORATION
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The levels of net loan and lease charge-offs and nonperforming assets have increased since early
2007. Although we were never directly involved in the underwriting of or the investing in subprime
residential real estate loans, the apparent substantial and rapid collapse of this line of business
during 2007 throughout the United States had a significant negative impact on the residential real
estate development lending portion of our business. The resulting decline in real estate prices
and slowdown in sales has stretched the cash flow of our local developers and eroded the value of our underlying collateral,
which caused elevated levels of nonperforming assets and net loan and lease charge-offs. Since
that time, we have witnessed rapidly deteriorating economic conditions in Michigan and throughout
the country. The resulting decline in business revenue has negatively impacted the cash flows of
many of our borrowers, some to the point where loan payments have become past due or will likely
become delinquent in future periods. In addition, real estate prices have fallen significantly,
thereby exposing us to larger-than-typical losses in those instances where the sale of collateral
is the primary source of repayment. Also during this time, we have seen deterioration in
guarantors&#146; financial capacities to fund deficient cash flows and reduce or eliminate collateral
deficiencies. It is likely that the net loan and lease charge-offs and nonperforming assets will
remain elevated in comparison to our historical levels until economic conditions improve.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of December&nbsp;31, 2007, nonperforming assets totaled $35.7&nbsp;million, or 1.68% of total assets, an
increase from the $9.6&nbsp;million, or 0.46% of total assets, as of December&nbsp;31, 2006. Nonperforming
loans and leases totaled $29.8&nbsp;million and foreclosed properties/repossessed assets equaled $5.9
million at year-end 2007, compared to $8.6&nbsp;million and $1.0&nbsp;million, respectively, at year-end
2006. As of December&nbsp;31, 2007, nonperforming loans secured by real estate, combined with all
foreclosed properties, totaled $28.6&nbsp;million, or about 80% of total nonperforming assets.
Nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties associated with the development of residential real
estate totaled $11.1&nbsp;million, with another $3.2&nbsp;million in nonperforming loans secured by, and
foreclosed properties consisting of, residential properties. Net loan and lease charge-offs during
2007 totaled $6.7&nbsp;million, or 0.38% of average total loans and leases. During 2006, net loan and
lease charge-offs totaled $4.9&nbsp;million, or 0.29% of average total loans and leases.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Throughout most of 2008, we experienced a sudden and rapid deterioration in a number of commercial
loan relationships which previously had been performing satisfactorily. Analysis of certain
commercial borrowers revealed a reduced capability on the part of these borrowers to make required
payments as indicated by factors such as delinquent loan payments, diminished cash flow,
deteriorating financial performance, or past due property taxes, and in the case of commercial and
residential development projects slow absorption or sales trends. In addition, commercial real
estate is the primary source of collateral for many of these borrowing relationships and updated
evaluations and appraisals in many cases reflected significant declines from the original estimated
values.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the latter part of 2008, throughout 2009 and during the first quarter of 2010, we saw a
continuation of the stresses caused by the poor economic conditions, especially in the CRE markets.
High vacancy rates or slow absorption has resulted in inadequate cash flow generated from some
real estate projects we have financed, and has required guarantors to provide personal funds to
make full contractual loan payments and pay other operating costs. In some cases, the guarantors&#146;
cash and other liquid reserves have become seriously diminished. In other cases, sale of the
collateral, either by the borrower or us, is our primary source of repayment.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of December&nbsp;31, 2008, nonperforming assets totaled $57.4&nbsp;million, or 2.60% of total assets.
Nonperforming loans and leases totaled $49.3&nbsp;million and foreclosed properties/repossessed assets
equaled $8.1&nbsp;million at year-end 2008, compared to $29.8&nbsp;million and $5.9&nbsp;million, respectively, at
year-end 2007. As of December&nbsp;31, 2008, nonperforming loans secured by real estate, combined with
all foreclosed properties, totaled $52.3&nbsp;million, or about 91% of total nonperforming assets.
Nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties associated with the development of residential real
estate totaled $25.3&nbsp;million, with another $4.2&nbsp;million in nonperforming loans secured by, and
foreclosed properties consisting of, residential properties. Net loan and lease charge-offs during
2008 totaled $19.9&nbsp;million, or 1.09% of average total loans and leases. The increase in net loan
and lease charge-offs during 2008 over prior periods primarily reflects a combination of a higher level of nonperforming loans and leases
and the significant decline in property values.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of December&nbsp;31, 2009, nonperforming assets totaled $111.7&nbsp;million, or 5.86% of total assets.
Nonperforming loans and leases totaled $85.1&nbsp;million and foreclosed properties/repossessed assets
equaled $26.6&nbsp;million at year-end 2009. As of December&nbsp;31, 2009, nonperforming loans secured by
CRE, combined with all foreclosed properties, totaled $62.6&nbsp;million. Nonperforming loans and
foreclosed properties associated with the development of residential-related real estate totaled
$31.8&nbsp;million, with another $7.5&nbsp;million in nonperforming loans secured by, and foreclosed
properties consisting of, residential properties. Nonperforming C&#038;I loans and repossessed assets
totaled $9.8&nbsp;million. Net loan and lease charge-offs during 2009 totaled $38.2&nbsp;million, or 2.24%
of average total loans and leases. The increase in net loan and lease charge-offs during 2009 over
prior periods primarily reflects a combination of a higher level of nonperforming loans and leases
and the continued significant decline in property values.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, nonperforming assets totaled $117.6&nbsp;million, or 6.18% of total assets.
Nonperforming loans and leases totaled $94.5&nbsp;million and foreclosed properties/repossessed assets
equaled $23.1&nbsp;million. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, nonperforming loans secured by CRE, combined with all
foreclosed properties, totaled $68.1&nbsp;million. Nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties
associated with the development of residential-related real estate totaled $34.2&nbsp;million, with
another $5.9&nbsp;million in nonperforming loans secured by, and foreclosed properties consisting of,
residential properties. Nonperforming C&#038;I loans and repossessed assets totaled $9.3&nbsp;million. Net
loan and lease charge-offs during the first quarter of 2010 totaled $6.2&nbsp;million, or an annualized
1.64% of average total loans and leases. Although lower than the level (as a percent of average
total loans and leases) charged-off throughout 2009, net loan and lease charge-offs during 2010 are
expected to remain elevated compared to historical averages due to a higher volume of nonperforming
loans and leases and significant declines in property values.

<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 establish 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, loan and lease loss
migration analysis, composition of the loan and lease portfolio, third party analysis of the loan
and lease administration processes and portfolio and general economic conditions.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">MERCANTILE BANK CORPORATION
</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 on the loan ratings as determined by our standardized
grade paradigms. For retail loans, reserve allocation factors are based on 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 and lease charge-offs and nonperforming assets, the comparison of the
recent levels and historical trends of net loan and lease charge-offs and nonperforming assets with
a customized peer group consisting of ten similarly-sized publicly traded banking organizations
conducting business in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Indian or Ohio, the review and
consideration of our loan and lease 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>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As specified in our Loan Administration Policy, we complete a migration analysis quarterly to
assist us in determining appropriate reserve allocation factors for commercial loans and leases.
Our migration takes into account four different time periods, including four, eight, twelve and
twenty-quarter time periods, and while we generally place most weight on the eight-quarter time
frame as that period is close to the average duration of our loan and lease portfolio,
consideration is given to the other time periods as part of our assessment. Although the migration
analysis provides an accurate historical accounting of our loan and lease losses, it is not able to
fully account for environmental factors that will also very likely impact the collectability of our
commercial loans and leases as of any quarter-end date.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Environmental factors include both internal and external items. We believe the most significant
internal environmental factor is our credit culture and the relative aggressiveness in assigning
and revising commercial loan and lease risk ratings. Although we have been consistent in our
approach to commercial loan and lease ratings, ongoing stressed economic conditions have resulted
in an even higher sense of aggressiveness with regards to the downgrading of lending relationships.
In addition, we made revisions to our grading paradigms in early 2009 that mathematically resulted
in commercial loan and lease relationships being more quickly downgraded when signs of stress were noted, such as slower sales
activity for construction and land development CRE relationships and reduced operating
performance/cash flow coverage for C&#038;I relationships. These changes, coupled with the troubled
economic environment, have resulted in significant downgrades and the need for substantial
provisions to the allowance. To more effectively manage our commercial loan and lease portfolio,
also in early 2009 we created two specific groups tasked with managing our higher exposure lending
relationships. One team manages the most distressed credits, while the other team manages our
larger &#147;monitor-related&#148; credit relationships.
</DIV>







<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The most significant external environmental factor is the assessment of the current economic
environment and the resulting implications on our commercial loan and lease portfolio. Currently,
we believe conditions remain stressed for CRE; however, recent data and performance reflect a level of
stability in the C&#038;I segment of our loan and lease portfolio.
</DIV>

<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 timeliness of scheduled payments. 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 the timeliness of
scheduled payments. 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 collateral position.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Although we believe the allowance is adequate to absorb loan losses as they arise, there can be no
assurance that we will not sustain loan 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">Securities decreased by $28.8&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010, totaling $228.6
million as of March&nbsp;31, 2010. The decline in the securities portfolio primarily reflects the sale
of certain tax-exempt municipal bonds with an aggregate book value of $20.0&nbsp;million, which were
sold in late March after analyzing our current and forecasted federal income tax position. A vast
majority of the sales proceeds were used to purchase U.S. Government agency bonds during April and
early May. Proceeds from matured and called U.S. Government agency bonds during the first three
months of 2010 totaled $14.0&nbsp;million, with another $4.0&nbsp;million received from principal paydowns on
mortgage-backed securities. Purchases during the first three months of 2010, consisting almost
exclusively of U.S. Government agency bonds, totaled $7.5&nbsp;million. At March&nbsp;31, 2010, the
portfolio was comprised of U.S. Government agency bonds (39%), U.S. Government agency issued or
guaranteed mortgage-backed securities (27%), tax-exempt municipal general obligation and revenue
bonds (17%), Michigan Strategic Fund bonds (9%), Federal Home Loan Bank stock (7%) and mutual funds
(1%). All of our securities are currently designated as available for sale. Historically, we had
designated our tax-exempt municipal bonds as held to maturity; however, we changed the designation
to available for sale immediately after the sale of certain of our tax-exempt municipal bonds in
late March. We maintain the securities portfolio at levels to provide adequate pledging and
secondary liquidity for our daily operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Market values on our U.S. Government agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed
by U.S. Government agencies and tax-exempt municipal securities are determined on a monthly basis
with the assistance of a third party vendor. Evaluated pricing models that vary by type of
security and incorporate available market data are utilized. Standard inputs include issuer and
type of security, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads. The
market value of other securities is estimated at carrying value as those financial instruments are
generally bought and sold at par value. We believe our valuation methodology provides for a
reasonable estimation of market value, and that it is consistent with the requirements of
accounting guidelines.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Federal funds sold, consisting of excess funds sold overnight to a correspondent bank, along with
investments in interest-bearing deposits at correspondent banks, are used to manage daily liquidity
needs and interest rate sensitivity. During the first three months of 2010, the average balance of these
funds equaled $58.4&nbsp;million, or 3.2% of average earning assets. This level is similar to that
during all of 2009, but considerably higher than the historical average of less than 1.0%. Given
the stressed market and economic conditions, in early 2009 we made the decision to operate with a
higher than traditional balance of federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits. We expect to
maintain the higher balance of federal funds sold and other interest-bearing deposits, likely 2.0%
to 3.0% of average earning assets, until market and economic conditions return to more normalized
levels.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Premises and equipment at March&nbsp;31, 2010 equaled $29.1&nbsp;million, a decrease of $0.6&nbsp;million over the
past three months. Purchases of premises and equipment during the first three months of 2010 were
nominal, while depreciation expense totaled $0.6&nbsp;million. On December&nbsp;30, 2009, all FDIC-insured financial
institutions were required to pre-pay estimated FDIC deposit insurance assessments for the fourth
quarter of 2009 and the years 2010, 2011 and 2012. The amount we paid equaled $16.3&nbsp;million, which
will be expensed over the future quarterly assessment periods. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, the balance
of this prepaid asset was $15.1&nbsp;million.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Foreclosed and repossessed assets totaled $23.1&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2010, compared to $26.6
million on December&nbsp;31, 2009. The $3.5&nbsp;million net decline consisted of $5.1&nbsp;million in sales
proceeds, $0.9&nbsp;million in valuation write-downs, and $2.5&nbsp;million in transfers from the loan and
lease portfolio. We expect foreclosed and repossessed assets to remain at elevated levels as we
move through the difficult economic environment and in certain situations elect to foreclose or
repossess collateral. The State of Michigan has a relatively protracted foreclosure process that
generally takes six to twelve months before deed is obtained. While we expect further transfers
from loans and leases to foreclosed and repossessed assets in future periods reflecting our
collection efforts on impaired lending relationships, we are hopeful that the increased sales
activity we witnessed during the first quarter of 2010 and the latter part of 2009 will continue
and limit the overall increase in this nonperforming asset category.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Deposits increased $18.6&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010, totaling $1.42&nbsp;billion at
March&nbsp;31, 2010. Local deposits increased $8.6&nbsp;million, while out-of-area deposits increased $10.0
million. As a percent of total deposits, local deposits equaled 48.3% on March&nbsp;31, 2010, unchanged
from the level at December&nbsp;31, 2009. In comparing balances as of March&nbsp;31, 2010 to those at
December&nbsp;31, 2008, total deposits have declined by $179.4&nbsp;million, consisting of a $215.0&nbsp;million
increase in local deposits and a $394.4&nbsp;million decrease in out-of-area deposits. The decline in
out-of-area deposits primarily results from the decline in total loans and leases and the increase
in local deposits. The increase in local deposits reflects various programs and initiatives we
have implemented over the past five quarters, including: certificate of deposit campaign;
implementation of several deposit-gathering initiatives in our commercial lending function;
introduction of new deposit-related products and services; and the continuation of providing our
customers with the latest in technological advances that give improved information, convenience and
timeliness.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest-bearing checking deposit accounts remain relatively stable, averaging between $110.0
million and $120.0&nbsp;million over the past several years, and $114.5&nbsp;million during the first three
months of 2010. Local interest-bearing checking accounts, in large part reflecting the strong
success of our executive banking product, increased $27.7&nbsp;million during the first three months of
2010, and are up $63.8&nbsp;million since year-end 2008. Money market deposit accounts increased $31.7
million during the first three months of 2010, and are up $38.8&nbsp;million since year-end 2008.
Certificates of deposit purchased by customers located within our market areas declined $47.2
million during the first three months of 2010, after increasing $164.1&nbsp;million during 2009. During
the first quarter of 2009, we ran a high-rate one-year certificate of deposit campaign that raised
about $65.0&nbsp;million, with most of the dollars representing new deposits to our bank. As these
certificates of deposit matured during the first quarter of 2010, we were able to retain about 70% of the maturing funds. A majority of the funds that remained in our bank
were deposited into either our executive banking product or a money market deposit account.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Deposits obtained from customers located outside of our market areas increased $10.0&nbsp;million during
the first three months of 2010, but have declined $394.4&nbsp;million since year-end 2008. As of March
31, 2010, out-of-area deposits totaled $734.9&nbsp;million. Out-of-area deposits consist of
certificates of deposit and interest-bearing checking accounts obtained from depositors located
outside our market areas and placed by deposit brokers for a fee, but also include certificates of
deposit obtained from the deposit owners directly. The owners of out-of-area deposits include individuals, businesses and municipal
governmental units located throughout the United States. The significant decline in out-of-area
deposits since year-end 2008 primarily reflects the influx of cash resulting from the reduction in
total loans and leases and from the increase in local deposits.

million as of March&nbsp;31, 2010. As part of our sweep account program, collected funds from certain
business noninterest-bearing checking accounts are invested into over-night interest-bearing
repurchase agreements. Such repurchase agreements are not deposit accounts and are not afforded
federal deposit insurance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">FHLB advances declined $15.0&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010, and are down $80.0
million since year-end 2008. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, FHLB advances totaled $190.0&nbsp;million. The
decline in FHLB advances since year-end 2008 primarily reflects the influx of cash resulting from
the reduction in total loans and leases and from the increase in local deposits. The 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 as of
March&nbsp;31, 2010 totaled about $249.0&nbsp;million, with availability approximating $50.0&nbsp;million.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><U><B>Liquidity</B></U>
</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 securities. These funds are used to fund loans, meet
deposit withdrawals, maintain reserve requirements and operate our company. Liquidity is primarily
achieved through the growth of local and out-of-area deposits and liquid assets such as securities
available for sale, matured and called securities, and federal funds sold. Asset and liability
management is the process of managing our 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 FHLB
advances, and to maintain an adequate level of short- and medium-term investments to meet typical
daily loan and deposit activity. To assist in providing needed funds, we have regularly obtained
monies from wholesale funding sources. Wholesale funds, comprised primarily of deposits from
customers outside of our market areas and advances from the FHLB, totaled $939.9&nbsp;million, or 54.5%
of combined deposits and borrowed funds as of March&nbsp;31, 2010, compared to $947.5&nbsp;million, or 55.0%
of combined deposits and borrowed funds as of December&nbsp;31, 2009, and $1.41&nbsp;billion, or 71.5% of
combined deposits and borrowed funds as of December&nbsp;31, 2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Although local deposits have historically generally increased as new business, municipal
governmental unit and individual deposit relationships are established and as existing customers
increase the balances in their accounts, and we witnessed significant local deposit growth during
the first three months of 2010 and all of 2009, the relatively high reliance on wholesale funds
will likely remain. As part of our interest rate risk management strategy, a majority of our wholesale funds have a fixed interest rate and
mature within one year, reflecting the fact that a majority of our loans and leases have a floating
rate tied to either the Mercantile Bank Prime Rate or LIBOR rates. While this maturity strategy
increases inherent liquidity risk, we believe the increased liquidity risk is sufficiently
mitigated by the benefits derived from an interest rate risk management standpoint. In addition, we have developed a comprehensive
contingency funding plan which we believe further mitigates the increased liquidity risk.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Wholesale funds are generally a lower all-in cost source of funds when compared to the interest
rates that would have to be offered in our local markets to generate a commensurate level of funds.
Interest rates paid on new out-of-area deposits and FHLB advances have historically been similar
to interest rates paid on new certificates of deposit issued to local customers. In addition, the
overhead costs associated with wholesale funds are considerably less than the overhead costs that
would be incurred to attract and administer a similar level of local deposits, especially if the
estimated costs of a needed expanded branching network were taken into account. We believe the
relatively low overhead costs reflecting our limited branch network mitigate our high reliance on
wholesale funds and resulting relatively low net interest margin.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, we have access to the FHLB advance
borrowing programs. Advances totaled $190.0&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2010, compared to $205.0&nbsp;million
and $270.0&nbsp;million outstanding at December&nbsp;31, 2009 and December&nbsp;31, 2008, respectively. Based on
available collateral at March&nbsp;31, 2010, we could borrow an additional $50.0&nbsp;million. We also have
the ability to borrow up to $30.0&nbsp;million on a daily basis through a correspondent bank using an
established unsecured federal funds purchased line of credit. During the first quarter of 2010,
our federal funds purchased position averaged less than $0.1&nbsp;million, compared to an average
federal funds sold position of $50.5&nbsp;million and another $7.9&nbsp;million invested in interest-bearing
deposits at correspondent banks. During 2009, our federal funds purchased position averaged only
$0.1&nbsp;million, compared to an average federal funds sold position of $53.8&nbsp;million and another $6.7
million invested in interest-bearing deposits at correspondent banks. Given the volatile market
and stressed economic conditions, we have been operating with a higher than normal balance of
federal funds sold and other short-term investments. It is expected that we will maintain a higher
than historical level of liquid funds, likely to average 2% to 3% of average earning assets, until
market and economic conditions return to more normalized levels. As a result, we expect the use of
our federal funds purchased line of credit, in at least the near future, will be rare, if at all.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have a line of credit through the Discount Window of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. Using
a substantial majority of our tax-exempt municipal securities as collateral, at March&nbsp;31, 2010 we
could have borrowed up to about $34.0&nbsp;million for terms of 1 to 28&nbsp;days. We did not utilize this
line of credit during the first three months of 2010 or at any time during 2009, and do not plan to
access this line of credit in future periods.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition to normal loan funding and deposit flow, we must maintain liquidity to meet the demands
of certain unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, we had a
total of $236.4&nbsp;million in unfunded loan commitments and $34.4&nbsp;million in unfunded standby letters
of credit. Of the total unfunded loan commitments, $222.5&nbsp;million were commitments available as
lines of credit to be drawn at any time as customers&#146; cash needs vary, and $13.9&nbsp;million were for
loan commitments expected to close and become funded within the next twelve months. The level of
commitments to make loans has declined significantly when compared to historical levels, primarily
reflecting poor economic conditions. We monitor fluctuations in loan balances and commitment levels, and include such data in our
overall liquidity management.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We monitor our liquidity position and funding strategies on an ongoing basis, but recognize that
unexpected events, changes in economic or market conditions, reduction in earnings performance,
declining capital levels or situations beyond our control could cause liquidity challenges. While
we believe it is unlikely that a funding crisis of any significant degree is likely to materialize,
we have developed a comprehensive contingency funding plan that provides a framework for meeting
liquidity disruptions.

the allowance, declined by $3.0&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010, reflecting a net
loss of $1.9&nbsp;million, a reduction of $0.6&nbsp;million in eligible allowance due to a decline in total
risk-weighted assets, and cash dividends totaling $0.5&nbsp;million. Despite the reduction in total
regulatory capital, our bank&#146;s total risk-based capital ratio increased due to a decline of $46.6
million in total risk-weighted assets, primarily resulting from a reduction in commercial loans.
As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, our bank&#146;s total regulatory capital equaled $188.1&nbsp;million, or $20.2&nbsp;million
in excess of the 10.0% minimum which is among the requirements to be categorized as &#147;well

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We recorded a net loss attributable to common shares of $3.0&nbsp;million for the first quarter of 2010
($0.35 per basic and diluted share), compared with a net loss of $4.5&nbsp;million ($0.53 per basic and
diluted share) recorded during the first quarter of 2009. The establishment of a valuation
allowance against our net deferred tax asset in the fourth quarter of 2009 has significantly
limited our ability to recognize federal income tax benefits during periods in which net losses are
recorded, thereby distorting bottom line earnings performance comparisons with previous quarters.
On a pre-tax basis, our net loss was $3.1&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2010 compared to $7.3
million in the first quarter of 2009. The 58.1% improvement in earnings performance on a pre-tax
basis in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the year-ago quarter primarily resulted from
increased net interest income and decreased provision expense. The net loss recorded during the first quarter of 2010 is primarily the result of a substantial
provision for loan and lease losses, reflecting continuing deterioration in the loan portfolio,
most notably in the CRE and C&#038;D segments. The declining state, regional and national economies have significantly hampered
certain commercial borrowers&#146; cash flows and negatively impacted real estate values, resulting in
an increasing level of nonperforming assets and elevated level of net loan and lease charge-offs.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest income during the first quarter of 2010 was $23.2&nbsp;million, a decrease of $4.8&nbsp;million, or
17.2%, from the $28.0&nbsp;million earned during the first quarter of 2009. The reduction in interest
income is primarily attributable to a significant decrease in earning assets, and to a much lesser
extent, a declining yield on earning assets. During the first three months of 2010, earning assets
averaged $1.82&nbsp;billion, a decline of $331.4&nbsp;million, or 15.4%, from the $2.16&nbsp;billion in average
earning assets during the first quarter of 2009. Average loans and leases were down $304.5
million, average federal funds sold decreased $24.3&nbsp;million, average securities increased $6.9
million, and average short-term investments decreased $9.5&nbsp;million. During the first three months
of 2010 and 2009, earning assets had a weighted average rate (tax equivalent-adjusted basis) of
5.22% and 5.33%, respectively. The decline in earning asset yield in the first quarter of 2010
compared to the prior-year first quarter primarily resulted from a higher level of nonperforming
assets. At March&nbsp;31, 2010, nonperforming assets totaled $117.6&nbsp;million, or 6.18% of total assets,
up from $83.7&nbsp;million, or 3.74% of total assets, at March&nbsp;31, 2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest expense during the first quarter of 2010 was $8.9&nbsp;million, a decrease of $7.3&nbsp;million, or
45.2%, from the $16.2&nbsp;million expensed during the first quarter of 2009. The reduction in interest
expense is primarily attributable to a decline in the weighted average cost of interest-bearing
liabilities and a decrease in the volume of interest-bearing liabilities. During the first three
months of 2010 and 2009, interest-bearing liabilities had a weighted average rate of 2.17% and
3.36%, respectively. The lower weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities is primarily
due to the decline in market interest rates that began late in the third quarter of 2007 and
continued through December of 2008. Maturing fixed-rate liabilities were replaced with
lower-costing funds throughout 2009 and during the first quarter of 2010. During the first three
months of 2010, interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1.66&nbsp;billion, or $297.3&nbsp;million lower than
average interest-bearing liabilities of $1.96&nbsp;billion during the same time period in 2009. Average
interest-bearing deposits were down $233.3&nbsp;million, while average FHLB advances decreased $70.5
million, average short-term borrowings increased $8.3&nbsp;million, and average other borrowings
decreased $1.8&nbsp;million.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net interest income during the first quarter of 2010 was $14.3&nbsp;million, an increase of $2.5
million, or 21.2%, over the $11.8&nbsp;million earned during the first quarter of 2009. The increase in
net interest income was due to an increase in the net interest margin, which more than offset a
decrease in earning assets. The net interest margin increased from 2.28% during the first three
months of 2009 to 3.25% during the first three months of 2010, primarily reflecting a reduction in
our cost of funds, which more than offset the decreased yield on earning assets. Although our
yield on earning assets declined in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the prior-year first
quarter mainly due to a higher level of nonperforming assets, our cost of funds declined at a far
greater rate, resulting in the improved net interest margin. The cost of funds primarily decreased
as a result of higher-costing matured wholesale funds, consisting of certificates of deposit and
FHLB advances, being replaced by lower-costing funds.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Given the multitude of factors that impact the net interest margin, it is difficult to predict
future net interest margins. However, in light of the current interest rate environment, our net
interest margin during the remainder of 2010 should benefit from a continued reduction in our cost
of funds and the loan pricing initiatives instituted in 2008 and 2009. With respect to our cost of
funds, we have about $430&nbsp;million in wholesale funds at an average rate of 1.80% scheduled to mature during the remainder of
2010. Current rates on wholesale instruments generally range from 0.30% to 3.00%, depending on the
type of product and term. During the first quarter of 2010, our average rate on new wholesale
funds was about 1.10%; the planned implementation of a matched-funding program involving new and
existing fixed-rate loans will likely place upward pressure on the average rate of wholesale funds
acquired in future periods as the duration of the wholesale funding portfolio is increased. While a continued reduction in
our cost of funds will positively impact our net interest margin, the impact of asset quality on
the net interest margin is difficult to predict.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following table sets forth certain information relating to our consolidated average
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets
and average cost of liabilities for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009. Such yields and costs are
derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balance of assets or liabilities,
respectively, for the period presented. Tax-exempt 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 $296,000 and $326,000 in the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, for
this adjustment.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">MERCANTILE BANK CORPORATION
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The provision for loan and lease losses during the first quarter of 2010 was $8.4&nbsp;million,
compared to $10.4&nbsp;million during the first quarter of 2009. The significant provision expense
incurred in both periods is in response to the deterioration of the quality of our loan portfolio;
continued state, regional, and national economic struggles have negatively impacted some of our
borrowers&#146; cash flows and underlying collateral values, leading to increased nonperforming assets,
elevated net loan and lease charge-offs, and increased overall credit risk within our loan and
lease portfolio.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net loan and lease charge-offs of $6.2&nbsp;million were recorded during the first three months of 2010,
compared to net loan and lease charge-offs of $10.9&nbsp;million during the fourth quarter of 2009 and
$5.6&nbsp;million during the first quarter of 2009. Of the $6.8&nbsp;million in gross loans and leases
charged-off during the first three months of 2010, $4.4&nbsp;million, or about 64%, represents the
elimination of specific reserves that were established in earlier periods. The remaining $2.4
million, while in part covered through general reserve allocations via our loan grading system, is
included in the $8.4&nbsp;million provision that was expensed during the first quarter of 2010.
Provision expense during the first three months of 2010 allocated to CRE loans totaled $5.0
million, with another $3.7&nbsp;million allocated to C&#038;D loans and $0.7&nbsp;million allocated to C&#038;I loans.
Recoveries and a reduction in total loans and leases outstanding during the first quarter of 2010
mitigated the necessary provision expense by $1.0&nbsp;million. The allowance, as a percentage of total
loans and leases outstanding, was 3.35% as of March&nbsp;31, 2010, compared to 3.11% as of December&nbsp;31,
2009 and 1.79% as of March&nbsp;31, 2009.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest income during the first quarter of 2010 was $2.66&nbsp;million, an increase of 30.7% over
the $2.03&nbsp;million earned during the first quarter of 2009. Since we will not be in a taxable
position near-term, we elected to sell $20&nbsp;million of our $60&nbsp;million tax-exempt municipal bond
portfolio late in the first quarter of 2010, realizing a gain on sale of $0.5&nbsp;million. Also during
the first quarter of 2010, we sold $5.5&nbsp;million in guaranteed portions of certain Small Business
Administration-guaranteed commercial loans, recognizing a gain on sale of $0.2&nbsp;million. Excluding
these gains, noninterest income declined 3.6% in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the year-ago
quarter. Declines in mortgage banking income and overdraft service charges, which were partially
offset by increases in rental income from foreclosed properties and earnings on bank-owned life
insurance, resulted in the lower level of recurring noninterest income during the first three
months of 2010 compared to the same time period in 2009.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Noninterest expense during the first quarter of 2010 was $11.6&nbsp;million, an increase of 8.0% over
the $10.8&nbsp;million expensed during the first quarter of 2009, primarily due to higher costs
associated with the administration and resolution of nonperforming assets, including legal
expenses, property tax payments, appraisal fees, and write-downs on foreclosed properties, and
increased FDIC insurance premiums. Nonperforming asset administration and resolution costs totaled
$2.5&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010, an increase of $1.5&nbsp;million from the $1.0
million in costs incurred during the first three months of 2009. FDIC insurance premiums were $1.2
million in the first quarter of 2010 compared to $0.6&nbsp;million in the prior-year first quarter.
While it is difficult to predict future FDIC deposit insurance assessments given the enormous
stress on the Deposit Insurance Fund from the significant losses incurred from bank failures, it is
very likely that the expense will remain at elevated levels until economic conditions improve and
the rate of bank failures declines substantially. Controllable operating expenses, including
salaries and benefits, occupancy, furniture and equipment costs, and various other expenses,
declined $1.2&nbsp;million, or 13.2%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the same 2009 time
period. Salary and benefit costs were down $0.9&nbsp;million during the first three months of 2010
compared to the respective 2009 timeframe, primarily resulting from a reduction in full-time
equivalent employees from 298 at first quarter-end 2009 to 251 at first quarter-end 2010.
Occupancy, furniture and equipment costs declined by
$0.2&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily resulting
from an aggregate reduction in rent and depreciation expenses. Beginning in the fourth quarter of
2009, overhead cost savings of approximately $200,000 per month were achieved as a result of the
consolidation of the mid- and eastern regions of our Michigan banking activities that was completed
in August of 2009.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">MERCANTILE BANK CORPORATION
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the first quarter of 2010, we recorded a loss before federal income tax of $3.1&nbsp;million and
a federal income tax benefit of $0.4&nbsp;million, compared to a loss before federal income tax of $7.3
million and a federal income tax benefit of $2.8&nbsp;million during the first quarter of 2009. Our
ability to recognize federal income tax benefits during periods in which net losses are recorded is
significantly limited due to the establishment of a valuation allowance against the entire balance
of our net deferred tax asset in the fourth quarter of 2009. Generally, the calculation for the
federal income tax provision (benefit)&nbsp;does not consider the tax effects of changes in other
comprehensive income (&#147;OCI&#148;), which is a component of shareholders&#146; equity on the balance sheet.
However, an exception is provided in certain circumstances, such as when there is a pre-tax loss
from continuing operations. In such cases, pre-tax income from other categories (such as changes
in OCI) is included in the calculation of the federal income tax provision (benefit)&nbsp;for the
current year. This resulted in the recognition of a $0.4&nbsp;million federal income tax benefit in the
first quarter of 2010.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Item&nbsp;3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk</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 our interest-earning assets over the interest
paid on our 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 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 our net interest margin during periods of
changing market interest rates.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The second interest rate risk measurement we use 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, 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>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We conducted multiple simulations as of March&nbsp;31, 2010, in which it was assumed that changes in
market interest rates occurred ranging from up 300 basis points to down 300 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 in comparison to estimated net interest
income based on our balance sheet structure, including the balances and interest rates associated
with our specific loans, securities, deposits and borrowed funds, as of March&nbsp;31, 2010. The
resulting estimates are well within our policy parameters established to manage and monitor
interest rate risk.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The resulting estimates have been significantly impacted by the current interest rate and
economic environments, as adjustments have been made to critical model inputs with regards to
traditional interest rate relationships. This is especially important as it relates to floating
rate commercial loans and brokered certificates of deposit, which comprise a substantial portion of
our balance sheet. As of March&nbsp;31, 2010, the Mercantile Bank Prime Rate is 4.50% as compared to
the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate of 3.25%. Historically, the two indices have been equal;
however, we elected not to reduce the Mercantile Bank Prime Rate in late October and mid-December
of 2008 when the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate declined by 50 and 75 basis points, respectively.
In conducting our simulations at March&nbsp;31, 2010, we have made the assumption that the Mercantile
Bank Prime Rate will remain unchanged until the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate exceeds the
Mercantile Bank Prime Rate, at which time the two indices will remain equal in the increasing
interest rate scenarios. Also, brokered certificate of deposit rates have substantially decreased
since December of 2008, with part of the decline attributable to a significant imbalance
whereby the supply of available funds far outweighs the demand from banks looking to raise funds.
As a result, we have substantially limited further reductions in brokered certificate of deposit
rates in the declining interest rate scenarios.

economic and competitive conditions; potential changes in lending, investing, and deposit gathering
strategies; client preferences; and other factors.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In April&nbsp;2010, our Board of Directors suspended future payments of cash dividends on our common
stock until economic conditions and our financial performance improve. Holders of our common stock
are entitled to receive cash dividends to the extent that they are declared from time to time by
our Board of Directors. We may only pay cash 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 cash dividends to our shareholders depends primarily on our
bank&#146;s ability to pay cash dividends to us. Cash 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 cash dividends is also subject to its profitability,
financial condition, capital expenditures and other cash flow requirements. In addition, under the
terms of the subordinated debentures that we issued to the trust, we would be precluded from paying
cash 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. Also, in connection with our participation in
the United States Treasury Department&#146;s Capital Purchase Program, we agreed that we would not,
without the Treasury Department&#146;s consent, increase the cash dividend rate on our common stock, or
with certain exceptions, repurchase any shares of our common stock. These restrictions relating to
the Capital Purchase Program remain in effect until the earlier of (i)&nbsp;May&nbsp;15, 2012, or (ii)&nbsp;when
all of the preferred stock that we sold to the Treasury Department has been redeemed by us or
transferred by the Treasury Department to third parties.
