Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

        This is the PL Capital Group’s first amendment to its initial Schedule 13D filing. The PL Capital Group owns 7.7% of Bancorp RI.


CUSIP No. 059690107 Page 15 of 22 Pages   

        On July 25, 2006, PL Capital representatives Richard Lashley and John Palmer spoke with Ms. Merrill W. Sherman, President and CEO of Bancorp RI and Ms. Linda Simmons, Treasurer and CFO of Bancorp RI. The purpose of the call was to discuss the recently released second quarter operating results as well as management’s plans for the future. In PL Capital’s view, Bancorp RI’s management was not forthcoming with answers to its questions or responsive to its concerns. Management cited Regulation FD as a reason.

        Among other things, Messrs. Lashley and Palmer noted that Bancorp RI had not acquired any stock under the five percent stock repurchase authorization announced on April 18, 2006. Management would not provide any details as to why no stock was repurchased or the analytics used, if any, to evaluate stock repurchases. Messrs. Palmer and Lashley inquired about the prospects for achieving positive operating leverage, noting that year over year revenues (second quarter 2006 versus second quarter 2005) were down approximately 1% while operating expenses were up approximately 7%. Management did not provide any details on this issue other than to cite increased growth in commercial loans and deposits. Messrs. Lashley and Palmer told management that PL Capital is concerned that its modeling projects that Bancorp RI’s efficiency ratio will remain above 70% in 2007 and 2008, versus PL Capital’s expectation for well run commercial banks of 55% to 60%. Management did not confirm or refute PL Capital’s projections. Management claimed that 55-60% was unrealistic and they did not share that level as a goal.

        Messrs. Palmer and Lashley told management that it was PL Capital’s belief that the value of Bancorp RI, if it were to be sold, far exceeded Bancorp RI’s value as an independent entity, and that this valuation gap was not going to be closed by continuing to operate as an independent entity, given its current and prospective track record. PL Capital asked management to provide any evidence that this assumption was incorrect. Management did not provide any specific evidence to rebut this assumption, or that the board and management have analytically evaluated different strategic alternatives.

        Messrs. Palmer and Lashley informed management that PL Capital generally seeks to become actively involved in the companies in which it invests, if needed, and that this call was their chance to convince PL Capital why such active involvement was not necessary in this instance. In PL Capital’s view, management failed to provide it with any reason not to become more actively involved in Bancorp RI.

        It is PL Capital’s intention to nominate up to four candidates for election to Bancorp RI’s board of directors at the 2007 Annual Meeting, in opposition to the candidates proposed by management of Bancorp RI.

        Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock, although the PL Capital Group has no present intention of ever increasing PL Capital Group’s aggregate holdings above 9.999% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.

        To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute a “control purpose” with respect to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the PL Capital Group has such a purpose. Except as noted in this Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.


CUSIP No. 059690107 Page 16 of 22 Pages   

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company

        The percentages used in this Schedule 13D are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, 4,770,221, reported as the number of outstanding shares as of June 30, 2006, in the Company’s press release dated July 18, 2006, which was attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 18, 2006 (filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on that same date).
