INSIGNIA BANK ANNOUNCES BRANCHES IN MANATEE AND SARASOTA COUNTIES

Sarasota, Fla. June 20, 2007— Insignia Bank, a start-up community bank still in its first year of business, announces two additional locations; one in Lakewood Ranch and another in Sarasota County.

The Lakewood Ranch office will be located at 6145 Exchange Way, just off of University Park Blvd. in front of Publix. The other office is currently under construction at the corner of Fruitville and Cattlemen Roads in what will be a Lowe’s Home Improvement Center. The branches are subject to regulatory approval. Insignia anticipates opening the Lakewood Ranch office this August, and the Fruitville and Cattlemen location next summer.

“These additional locations will provide enhanced convenience for our clients, supporting our claim as “Your Wherever, Whenever Community Bank,” said Charles G. Brown III, Chairman and CEO of Insignia Bank. “Insignia Bank offers clients their choice of banking options, wherever they may be, whether through our new state-of-the-art branches or from the convenience of their home or office via internet banking and online cash management.”

In addition to drive-in lanes and multi-lingual ATMs, both branches will feature custom-designed lobbies equipped with internet kiosks, self-service coin counters, children’s areas focusing on financial education, and conference and meeting rooms equipped with flat screen TVs.

Lawson Group Architects of Sarasota designed the Fruitville and Cattlemen branch building.

Insignia Bank’s headquarters is located at 333 North Orange Avenue at the corner of Fruitville Road and North Orange. Its primary businesses include deposit services, commercial real estate lending, and residential and commercial mortgages.
