TABLE OF CONTENTS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE RIGHTS OFFERING

SUMMARY

          The following summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. This summary is not intended to constitute a complete description of Community Central Bank Corporation or a statement of all features of the rights offering. It may not contain all information that is important to you. You should carefully read this prospectus and the other documents to which we refer before deciding whether to purchase our common stock. See "Where to Find More Information" on page 13.

Community Central Bank Corporation

          Community Central Bank Corporation, headquartered in Mount Clemens, Michigan, was organized in April 1996 as a Michigan corporation and is registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. As a bank holding company, Community Central Bank Corporation is subject to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Board. Community Central Bank Corporation's principal business is to serve as the holding company for its banking subsidiary, Community Central Bank.

          Community Central Bank, referred to in this prospectus as the Bank, is a Michigan state-banking corporation and its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank opened for business in October 1996 and serves businesses and consumers across Macomb, St. Clair and Oakland Counties with a full range of lending, deposit and Internet banking services. The Bank operates two full service facilities, one in Mount Clemens and the other in Rochester Hills, Michigan. The Bank operates a loan center in Port Huron, Michigan, serving small to medium-sized businesses in the St. Clair County area, and owns a mortgage subsidiary, Community Central Mortgage Company, LLC, with locations in Mount Clemens, Warren, Dearborn, Livonia and Anchorville.

          As a result of internal growth and an acquisition, we have grown significantly from $211.6 million in total assets as of December 31, 2000 to $389.6 million in total assets as of September 30, 2004. Most of our growth has been generated internally with loans secured primarily by real estate in our market area. Loan originations increased from $33.7 million in fiscal 2000 to $36.5 million in fiscal 2001, $90.6 million in fiscal 2002 and $107.4 million in fiscal 2003. Loan originations totaled $54.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Loans receivable, net increased from $153.6 million at December 31, 2000 to $292.2 million at September 30, 2004. Deposits have increased from $186.1 million at December 31, 2000 to $273.5 million at September 30, 2004. In addition, on October 17, 2003, we purchased $23.3 million of assets, including discounted loans of $17.6 million, from North Oakland Community Bank, a one branch commercial bank located in Rochester Hills, Michigan. We expect the business model we used to develop our main office location in Macomb County will help us increase loans and deposits in the Rochester location.

          We intend to continue to pursue growth both internally and through strategic acquisitions. We believe our internal growth will continue to come from loan originations, and, in particular, multi-family and commercial real estate [and land] loans, and construction loans. These loan types complement our single-family lending, diversify our loan portfolio and are expected to increase our yield on interest-earning assets. Our primary funding vehicle will continue to be deposits. We intend to increase our deposit generation by expanding our products and services, increasing our branch network and cross-selling our current and prospective business customers. The expansion of our market share through selective branching and opportunistic acquisitions will depend on market and economic conditions.

          This offering is intended to permit us to continue our growth and enhance profitability. Assuming net proceeds from this offering of approximately $___ million, our pro forma stockholders' equity to total assets ratio at September 30, 2004 will increase from ____% to ____%. We believe that the net proceeds from this offering, as well as net earnings from operations, will provide sufficient capital and liquidity to support measured growth and sustained profitability.

          At September 30, 2004, we had $389.6 million in assets, $273.5 million in deposits, and $25.0 million in stockholders' equity. Our principal executive office is located at 100 North Main Street, Mount Clemens, Michigan 48043. Our telephone number is (586) 783-4500.

The Rights Offering

RISK FACTORS

          A purchase of our common stock involves risk. You should carefully consider, in addition to the other information set forth herein, the following risk factors:

If you do not exercise your subscription rights in full, your percentage ownership and voting rights will decrease.

          If you choose not to exercise your subscription rights in full, your relative ownership and voting interest will be diluted to the extent others exercise their subscription rights.

You may not be able to exercise your subscription rights if you do not act promptly and follow the subscription instructions carefully.

          If you wish to purchase shares in the rights offering, you must act promptly to ensure that all required forms and payments are actually received by Equiserve Trust Company prior to the expiration date. If you fail to properly complete and sign the required subscription order form, send an insufficient payment amount, or otherwise fail to follow the subscription procedures that apply to your intended purchase, the subscription agent may, at its discretion, reject your subscription or accept it to the full extent of payment received. Neither we nor the subscription agent have any obligation to contact you concerning, or to attempt to correct, an incomplete or incorrect subscription order form.

Our common stock may trade at prices above or below the subscription price.

          The subscription price was determined by a special rights committee of our board of directors based on its review of current market conditions and the recent trading history of the Corporation's common stock. We cannot assure you that the market price of the common stock will not decline during the subscription period to a level equal to or below the subscription price, or that, following the issuance of the common stock upon exercise of subscription rights, you will be able to sell shares purchased in the rights offering at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price.

You may not revoke your subscription and may be committed to buy shares above the prevailing market price.

          Your election to exercise your subscription rights is irrevocable. The market price of our common stock may decline before the subscription rights expire. If you exercise your subscription rights and the market price of our common stock decreases below $_____, then you will have committed to buy shares of our common stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

You may have to wait to resell the shares you purchase in the rights offering.

          Until certificates are delivered, you may not be able to sell the shares of common stock that you have purchased in the rights offering. That means that you may have to wait until you (or your broker or other nominee) have received a stock certificate. We will endeavor to prepare and issue the appropriate certificates as soon as practicable after the expiration of the offering. We cannot assure you, however, that the market price of the common stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of rights will not decline below the subscription price you paid before we are able to deliver your certificates.

We face strong competition from financial service companies and other companies that offer banking services which can hurt our business.

          We conduct our banking operations primarily in Southeast Michigan. Increased competition in our market may result in reduced loans and deposits. Ultimately, we may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. Many competitors offer the banking services that we offer in our market area. These competitors include national banks, regional banks and other community banks. We also face competition from many other types of financial institutions, including without limitation, savings and loans, finance companies, brokerage firms, insurance companies, credit unions, mortgage banks and other financial intermediaries. Our competitors may have greater financial resources and develop products that enable them to compete more successfully than we can.

The economic slowdown in Southeast Michigan could hurt our business.

          We focus our business in Southeast Michigan. The current economic slowdown in Southeast Michigan could result in the following consequences, any of which could hurt our business:

• loan delinquencies may increase;
• problem assets and foreclosures may increase;
• demand for our products and services may decline; and
• collateral for loans made by us, especially real estate, may decline in value, in turn reducing customers' borrowing power and reducing the value of assets and collateral associated with our existing loans.

A downturn in the real estate market could hurt our business.

          A downturn in the real estate market could hurt our business because many of our loans are secured by real estate. Our ability to recover on defaulted loans by selling the real estate collateral would then be diminished, and we would be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans. As of September 30, 2004, approximately ____ percent of the book value of our loan portfolio consisted of loans secured by various types of real estate. Substantially all of our real property collateral is located in Michigan. If there is a significant decline in real estate values, especially in Michigan, the collateral for our loans will provide less security.

Our business is subject to interest rate risk.

          Changes in the interest rate environment may reduce our profits. It is expected that we will continue to realize income from the differential or "spread" between the interest earned on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets, and interest paid on deposits, borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest spreads are affected by the difference between the maturities and repricing characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, loan volume and yields are affected by market interest rates on loans, and rising interest rates generally are associated with a lower volume of loan originations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in minimizing our exposure to interest rate risk. In addition, an increase in the general level of interest rates may adversely affect the ability of certain borrowers to pay the interest on and principal of their obligations. Accordingly, changes in levels of market interest rates could materially adversely affect our net interest spread, asset quality, loan origination volume and overall profitability.

Our commercial real estate loans involve higher principal amounts than other loans, and repayment of these loans may be dependent on factors outside our control or the control of our borrowers.

          As part of our operating strategy, we intend to continue to focus on our commercial real estate lending. At September 30, 2004, commercial real estate loans totaled $163.4 million, or 55.3%, of our total loan portfolio. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts, and the repayment of the loans generally is dependent, in large part, on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. These loans may therefore be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the economy generally. For example, if the cash flow from the borrower's project is reduced due to leases not being obtained or renewed, the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired. In addition, many commercial real estate loans are not fully amortized over the loan period, but have balloon payments due at maturity. A borrower's ability to make a balloon payment typically will depend on being able to either refinance the loan or completing a timely sale of the underlying property.

Repayment of our commercial and industrial loans is often dependent on the cash flows of the borrower, which may be unpredictable, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value.

          At September 30, 2004, commercial and industrial loans totaled $41.3 million, or 14.0%, of our total loan portfolio. We make these loans primarily based on the identified cash flow of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. Most often, this collateral is accounts receivable, contracts receivable, equipment or real estate. Credit support provided by the borrower for most of these loans and the

probability of repayment is based on the liquidation of the pledged collateral and enforcement of a personal guarantee, if any exists. As a result, in the case of loans secured by accounts and contracts receivables, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers. The collateral securing commercial loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business.

Acquisitions are an intended component of our growth strategy. We may encounter difficulties in pursuing this strategy, and to the extent that we acquire companies in the future, our business may be negatively affected by risks related to those acquisitions.

          We have recently completed an acquisition of banking assets and will consider the acquisition of other banking and related businesses in the future. Our ability to successfully pursue this strategy may have a direct bearing on our ability to grow our franchise and achieve and maintain our levels of profitability. There are risks associated with this strategy including the following:

• Prices at which acquisitions can be made fluctuate with market conditions. In addition, the number of potential acquirors can result in intense competition, particularly with respect to price. We have experienced times during which acquisitions could not be made in specific markets at prices we considered acceptable, and we expect that this condition will occur periodically in the future;

• We may borrow funds to finance an acquisition, thereby increasing our leverage and diminishing our liquidity;

• There are numerous risks involved in each acquisition that we make, including:
  • the risk that the acquired business will not perform according to management's expectations;

  • the risk that difficulties will arise in connection with the integration of the operations of the acquired business with our operations, including disruptions to customers of the acquired business;

  • the risk that management will divert its attention from other aspects of our business;

  • the risk that we may lose key employees of the acquired business;

  • the risks associated with entering into geographic and product markets in which we have limited or no direct prior experience; and

  • the risks of the acquired company that we may assume in connection with the acquisition, including potential asset quality issues and/or unknown or contingent liabilities that may exceed our estimates.

          As a result of these risks, any given acquisition, if and when consummated, may adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition. In addition, because the consideration for an acquisition may include shares of our common stock, existing holders of our common stock could experience dilution in connection with the acquisition. Depending on the acquisition price and the number of shares issued, this dilution could be significant.

Our continued pace of growth may require us to raise additional capital in the future, but that capital may not be available when it is needed.

          We are required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support our operations. We anticipate that our existing capital resources will satisfy our capital requirements for the foreseeable future. We may, at some point, need to raise additional capital to support continued growth, both internally and through acquisitions.

          Our ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside our control, and on our financial performance. Accordingly, we cannot assure you of our ability to raise additional capital if needed or on terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, our ability to further expand our operations through internal growth and acquisitions could be materially impaired.

We are subject to extensive regulation that could adversely affect our business.

          Our operations are subject to extensive regulation by federal and state governmental authorities and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions imposing requirements and restrictions on our operations. We believe that we are in substantial compliance in all material respects with applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations. Because our business is highly regulated, the laws, rules and regulations applicable to us are subject to regular modification and change.

Only a limited market exists for our common stock.

          Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq National Market System, but trading volumes are generally modest. There can be no assurance that a more active trading market for our common stock will develop. The limited trading market for our common stock may cause fluctuations in the market value of our common stock to be exaggerated, leading to price volatility in excess of that which would occur in a more active trading market.

USE OF PROCEEDS

          We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of shares of our common stock in this offering will be approximately $___ million, based on the subscription price of $_____ per share and before deducting our estimated offering expenses. We expect that the total net proceeds will be used to provide the required capital to support future growth and for general corporate purposes. In the short term, we expect to invest the proceeds of this offering in short-term investment grade securities.

CAPITALIZATION

          The following table sets forth our actual and as adjusted consolidated capitalization. Our as adjusted data gives effect to the issuance of __________shares of common stock at $_____ per share in this rights offering.

THE RIGHTS OFFERING

          The Subscription Rights

          We expect to issue subscription rights to each record holder of our common stock as of the close of business on the record date of ___________, 2004. We will issue one subscription right for every ______ shares of common stock you held on the record date. The subscription rights will be evidenced by subscription order forms, which are being distributed to our record holders with the delivery of this prospectus. The subscription rights may not be transferred or sold.

          We will not issue fractional subscription rights or pay any cash for fractional subscription rights. Instead, the total number of subscription rights record holders of our stock will receive will be rounded up to the nearest whole number. A depository, bank, trust company, or securities broker, dealer or similar intermediary holding shares of common stock on the record date for more than one beneficial owner may, upon proper showing to the subscription agent, exchange its subscription order form to obtain multiple subscription order forms for the number of subscription rights to which each such beneficial owner would have been entitled had each been a holder on the record date. Because the number of subscription rights issued to each record holder will be rounded up to the nearest whole number, beneficial owners of common stock who are not the record date holders of their shares may receive one less subscription right under certain circumstances than beneficial owners of common stock who are the record date holders of their shares.

Expiration Time

          The subscription rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., Detroit, Michigan time, on ________________, unless we decide, in our sole discretion, to extend the offering. After the expiration time, unexercised subscription rights will be null and void. We will not be obligated to honor any purported exercise of subscription rights received by the subscription agent after the expiration time, regardless of when you sent the documents relating to that exercise, except pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

Subscription Privileges

          Each right you hold will entitle you to purchase one share of our common stock at the subscription price. You are entitled to subscribe for all, or any portion of, the shares that may be acquired through the exercise of your subscription rights. We will deliver certificates representing shares of common stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of subscription rights as soon as practicable after the expiration time. See "--Commitment to Purchase Unsubscribed Shares" below.

Offering

          We expect to sell ____  shares of our common stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus. See "--Commitment to Purchase Unsubscribed Shares" below.

Subscription Price

          The subscription price was determined by a special rights committee of our board of directors based on its review of current market conditions and the recent trading history of the Corporation's common stock. The special rights committee consists solely of independent directors, none of whom are acting as standby purchasers in the rights offering.

          We cannot assure you that the market price of the common stock will not decline during the subscription period to a level equal to or below the subscription price, or that, following the issuance of the common stock upon exercise of subscription rights, you will be able to sell shares purchased in the rights offering at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price.

Exercise of Subscription Rights

          You may exercise your subscription rights by delivering to the subscription agent, Equiserve Trust Company, the properly completed and executed subscription order form at or prior to the expiration time, with any signatures guaranteed as required, together with payment in full of the subscription price for each share subscribed for. You may make payment only by check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank, or postal, telegraphic or express money order. Make your check, draft or money order, payable to Community Central Bank Corporation.

          The subscription price will be deemed to have been received by the subscription agent only upon (i) clearance of any uncertified check or (ii) receipt by the subscription agent of any certified check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank or of any postal, telegraphic or express money order. Funds paid by uncertified personal check may take at least seven business days to clear. Accordingly, if you wish to pay the subscription price by means of uncertified personal check, you are urged to make payment sufficiently in advance of the expiration time to ensure that such payment is received and clears by such time and are urged to consider in the alternative payment by means of certified or cashier's check or money order.

          All funds received by the subscription agent in payment of the subscription price will be held in escrow in a segregated savings account. You will not be entitled to any interest earned on these funds.

          If you wish to exercise your subscription rights, but time will not permit you to return the subscription order form evidencing those subscription rights to the subscription agent prior to the expiration time, you may still exercise those subscription rights if all of the following conditions are met:

• the subscription agent has received your payment of the full subscription price for all shares subscribed for at or prior to the expiration time;
• the subscription agent receives, at or prior to the expiration time, the guarantee notice from a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or from a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States, stating:
  • your name,
  • the number of subscription rights represented by your subscription order form,
  • the number of shares you have subscribed for, and
  • guaranteeing the delivery to the subscription agent of the subscription order form evidencing those subscription rights within 72 hours following the date of the notice of guaranteed delivery; and
• the subscription agent receives the properly completed subscription order form evidencing the subscription rights being exercised, with any required signatures guaranteed within 72 hours following the date of the notice of guaranteed delivery relating thereto.

          You may deliver the notice of guaranteed delivery to the subscription agent in the same manner as subscription order forms at the address set forth on the subscription order form, or the notice may be transmitted to the subscription agent by facsimile transmission (telecopier no. (781) 380-3388). Additional copies of the form of notice of guaranteed delivery are available upon request from the subscription agent. Requests for such materials should be sent via e-mail to skelly@equiserve.com or made by calling Steve Kelly at (732) 417-3576.

          If the aggregate subscription price you pay is insufficient or more than sufficient to purchase the number of shares that you indicate you are subscribing for, or if you do not indicate the number of shares you are subscribing for, then you will be deemed to have exercised your subscription rights to purchase shares to the full extent of the payment you tender. In no event will you be permitted to purchase more shares than you have subscription rights to purchase.

          Until we issue certificates representing shares of common stock, we will hold any funds received in a segregated escrow account. If the offering is not completed or you send in more money than is necessary to exercise your full subscription rights, then all funds held in escrow in case the offering is terminated, or funds you paid in

excess of your subscription rights will be returned by mail without interest or deduction as soon as practicable after the termination or expiration time.

          We will mail the certificates representing shares of common stock subscribed for and issued pursuant to the exercise of your subscription rights as soon as practicable after the expiration time. Certificates for shares of common stock issued pursuant to the exercise of subscription rights will be registered in the name of the subscription rights holder exercising such subscription rights.

          If you hold shares of common stock for the account of others, such as in your capacity as a broker, trustee or depository for securities, you should contact the respective beneficial owners of such shares as soon as possible to ascertain those beneficial owners' intentions and to obtain instructions with respect to their subscription rights. If a beneficial owner so instructs, you should complete appropriate subscription order forms and submit them to the subscription agent with the proper payment. In addition, beneficial owners of common stock or subscription rights held through such a nominee holder should contact the nominee holder and request the nominee holder to effect transactions in accordance with the beneficial owner's instructions.

          The instructions accompanying the subscription order form should be read carefully and followed in detail. Subscription order forms should be sent with payment to the subscription agent. Please do not send subscription forms to us.

          The method of delivery of subscription order forms and payment of the subscription price to the subscription agent will be at your own election and risk. If you send subscription order forms and payments by mail, you are urged to send the materials by registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested, and are urged to allow a sufficient number of days to ensure delivery to the subscription agent and clearance of payment prior to the expiration time. Because uncertified personal checks may take at least seven business days to clear, you are strongly urged to pay, or arrange for payment, by means of certified or cashier's check or money order.

          We will determine all questions concerning the timeliness, validity, form and eligibility of any exercise of subscription rights and our determinations will be final and binding. In our sole discretion, we may waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected within such time as we may determine, or reject the purported exercise of any right. Subscription order forms will not be deemed to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been waived or cured within such time as we determine, in our sole discretion. Neither we nor the subscription agent will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in connection with the submission of subscription order forms or incur any liability for failure to give such notification. We reserve the right to reject any exercise if such exercise is not in accordance with the terms of the rights offering or not in proper form or if the acceptance thereof or the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant thereto could be deemed unlawful.

          If you have any questions or requests for assistance concerning exercising your subscription rights please call our subscription agent at (800) 526-9365. Requests for additional copies of this prospectus, the subscription order form or the notice of guaranteed delivery should be sent via e-mail to skelly@equiserve.com or made by calling Steve Kelly, Equiserve Trust Company, Corporate Actions, at (732) 417-3576. See "--Subscription Agent" below.

No Revocation; Commissions and Fees

          Except for the fees charged by the subscription agent (which we will pay as described below), all commissions, fees and other expenses (including brokerage commissions and transfer taxes) incurred in connection with the exercise of subscription rights will be for the account of the holder of the subscription rights, and none of such commissions, fees or expenses will be paid by us or by the subscription agent.

Commitment to Purchase Unsubscribed Shares

          Prior to the commencement of the rights offering, the Corporation entered into standby purchse agreements pursuant to which directors Gebran S. Anton, Joseph Catenacci, Salvatore Cottone, Joseph F. Jeannette and Dean S. Petipren, as standby purchasers for investment purposes only, have severally agreed to acquire, in the aggregate, all of the shares of our common stock that are not subscribed for by the expiration date of the rights offering. The unsubscribed for shares will be allocated among the standby purchasers as follows: (i) up to _____ shares to each standby purchaser plus (ii) unsubscribed for shares in excess of _____ shares will be allocated pro rata among Gebran S. Anton, Joseph Catenacci, Salvatore Cottone, and Dean S. Petipren according to their respective maximum standby purchase commitments (also subject in each case to the reductions as set forth below).

          The following table sets forth the standby purchasers maximum standby commitment.

          Shares of our stock will not be sold to any standby purchaser and will be reallocated to the other standby purchasers to the extent that:

• the shares sold to the standby purchaser, when aggregated with other shares of our common stock owned or controlled by the standby purchaser, would exceed 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of our common stock upon completion of this offering; or

• the standby purchaser is required to obtain prior clearance or approval of such purchase from any state or federal bank regulatory authority and (i) such approval or clearance has not been obtained or (ii) satisfactory evidence thereof has not been presented to us prior to the expiration of this offering.

          The price per share of our common stock paid by each standby purchaser will be the same as the subscription price used for the rights offering. The obligations of these standby purchasers is subject to satisfaction of certain customary conditions, including consummation of this rights offering. The standby purchasers will also commit to us to exercise, in full, their subscription rights distributed to them as stockholders of the Company.

          Promptly following the determination of the number of shares of common stock not subscribed for by our stockholders in the rights offering (and in any event no more than three business days following the expiration date on which the rights expire), we will notify the standby purchasers of the number of shares to be purchased by each of them pursuant to their respective standby purchase agreements, and the aggregate price therefor, the date and time on which such shares shall be purchased and the place of such purchase. The closing date for the shares to be purchased by the standby purchasers shall be not less than one business day and not more than three business days following receipt by the standby purchasers of the foregoing notice.

Approval of Rights Offering

          A special rights committee of our board of directors approved the rights offering. The members of the special rights committee are David E. Bonior, Bobby L. Hill and Michael D. Schwartz.

No Board or Financial Advisor Recommendation

          An investment in our common stock must be made according to your own evaluation of your best interests. Accordingly, neither our board of directors nor the special committee of our board makes any recommendation to you about whether you should exercise your subscription rights. We have not retained a financial advisor to make any recommendation to you about whether you should exercise your subscription rights.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

          This section describes the material United States federal income tax consequences relating to the distribution, receipt, exercise and transfer of subscription rights. This section applies to you only if:

• you are a U.S. holder (as defined below);

• you acquire your subscription rights in the distribution; and

• you hold your subscription rights as capital assets for tax purposes.

          This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a special class of holders subject to special rules, including:

• a dealer in securities;

• a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings;

• a tax-exempt organization;

• a life insurance company;

• a person liable for alternative minimum tax;

• a person that holds subscription rights as part of a straddle or a hedging or conversion transaction; or

• a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

          This section is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

          You are a U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of subscription rights and you are:

• a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a domestic corporation;

• an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source; or

• a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the United States federal, state and local and other tax consequences of owning subscription rights in your particular circumstances.

          This discussion addresses only United States federal income taxation.

          Distribution of Subscription Rights. Under the United States federal income tax laws, the distribution of subscription rights to you will be treated as a tax-free stock dividend under Section 305(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and therefore you will not be required to include any amount in income with respect to such distribution.

          If the fair market value of a right on the date of distribution is less than 15% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on that date (with the fair market value for shares based upon the average of the high and low trading prices for shares), your tax basis in a right will be zero unless you elect to allocate your tax basis in Community Central Bank Corporation common stock between the common stock and the subscription rights in proportion to their relative fair market values. This election would need to be made for all the subscription rights distributed to you, in the form of a statement attached to the U.S. federal income tax return filed by you for the year in which you receive the subscription rights. If made, this election would be irrevocable. If, on the date of distribution of the subscription rights, the fair market value of a right is 15% or more of the fair market value of a share of Community Central Bank Corporation common stock, you will be required to allocate your tax basis in Community Central Bank Corporation common stock between the subscription rights and the common stock in proportion to their relative fair market values.

          As a U.S. Holder, your holding period for your subscription rights will include your holding period for the shares of common stock with respect to which the subscription rights were distributed.

          Expiration of the Subscription Rights. If the subscription rights expire without exercise, no basis will be allocated to the subscription rights and no loss will be recognized upon their expiration. In this case, your basis in Community Central Bank Corporation common stock would not be reduced as a result of the distribution of the subscription rights.

          Exercise of the Subscription Rights. If you are a U.S. holder, you will not recognize gain or loss upon exercise of a subscription right.

          Tax Basis of Common Stock Acquired Upon Exercise of a Subscription Right. The tax basis of each share of Community Central Bank Corporation common stock acquired by a subscription right exercise will equal the sum of the subscription price for the subscription right and the tax basis, if any, for the subscription right. The holding period of any share of Community Central Bank Corporation common stock acquired in this way will begin with and include the date of the subscription right exercise.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

          The common stock offered hereby is being offered by us pursuant to the issuance of subscription rights directly to holders of shares of common stock on the record date. We expect that holders of record who hold shares of our common stock on behalf of beneficial owners will forward a copy of this prospectus and the related subscription information and order forms to those beneficial holders in adequate time to permit beneficial holders to complete and deliver any subscription instructions to those banks, brokers or other nominees. We cannot, however, assure you that this will be the case.

          We have engaged Equiserve Trust Company as our subscription agent to assist in the administration of the rights offering. Equiserve Trust Company, as our subscription agent, will receive and process all subscription order forms from our holders of record and will distribute certificates for the shares of our common stock purchased by holders of record upon the expiration of this offering. All stockholders who are exercising subscription rights are to send payment, made payable to the order of "Community Central Bank Corporation," directly to Equiserve Trust Company, where the funds will be held in a segregated savings account and not released until the rights offering is completed or terminated.

VALIDITY OF SECURITIES

          The validity of the subscription rights and the shares of common stock will be passed upon for Community Central Bank Corporation by Silver, Freedman & Taff, L.L.P., Washington, D.C.

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

          The following are the estimated expenses of the issuance of the subscription rights and common stock being registered, all of which will be paid by the Registrant:

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

          The Registrant's Articles of Incorporation provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its present and past directors, executive officers, and such other persons as the Board of Directors may authorize, to the full extent permitted by law.

          The Registrant's Bylaws contain indemnification provisions concerning third party actions as well as actions in the right of the Registrant. The Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Registrant) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or is, or while serving as such a director or officer was, serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, whether for profit or not, against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, penalties, fees and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant or its shareholders, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

          With respect to derivative actions, the Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Registrant to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such judgment or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant or its shareholders and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been found liable to the Registrant unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.

          The Registrant's Articles of Incorporation provide that a director of the Registrant shall not be personally liable to the Registrant or its shareholders for monetary damage for breach of the director's fiduciary duty. However, it does not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any breach of duty, act or omission for which the
