PART I
ITEM 1. Business.
General
Lafayette Bancorporation (the "Corporation") is a registered one-bank
holding company that holds all the outstanding stock of Lafayette Bank and Trust
Company (the "Bank"). The Corporation was incorporated under Indiana law on
February 16, 1984, at the direction of the Board of Directors of the Bank to
facilitate the Bank's adoption of a one-bank holding company structure. The Bank
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation on April 30, 1985, pursuant
to a Plan of Exchange in which all the outstanding stock of the Bank was
exchanged for stock of the Corporation. Prior to its acquisition of the Bank's
stock, the Corporation conducted no business or operations. The Corporation's
principal executive offices are located at 133 North 4th Street, Lafayette,
Indiana 47902 and its telephone number is (765) 423-7100.
As a bank holding company, the Corporation engages in commercial
banking through its sole banking subsidiary, the Bank, and can engage in certain
non-banking activities closely related to banking and own certain other business
corporations that are not banks, subject to applicable laws and regulations. All
references hereinafter to the activities or operations of the Corporation
reflect the Corporation's acting or operating through the Bank.
On March 12, 1999, the Bank completed the acquisition of three branches
from Bank One Indiana, National Association. The three branches are located in
DeMotte, Remington and Rensselaer, in Jasper County, Indiana. This branch
purchase added approximately $117 million in deposits and represented
approximately 30% of the deposits in Jasper County. The branch acquisition
expands the Bank's market area into an additional county in northwestern
Indiana.
The Bank was chartered as an Indiana state-chartered bank in 1899. The
Bank's principal executive offices are also located at 133 North 4th Street,
Lafayette, Indiana 47902 and its telephone number is (765) 423-7100. At December
31, 1998, the Bank was the largest bank headquartered in Tippecanoe County with
total assets of $483,969,000 and total deposits of $395,546,000.
Competition
The banking business is highly competitive. The Corporation's market
area consists principally of Tippecanoe, White and Jasper Counties in Indiana,
although the Bank also competes with other financial institutions in surrounding
counties in Indiana in obtaining deposits and providing many types of financial
services. The Corporation competes with larger regional banks for the business
of companies located in the Corporation's market area.
<PAGE>2
The Bank also competes with savings and loan associations, credit
unions, production credit associations and federal land banks and with finance
companies, personal loan companies, money market funds and other non-depository
financial intermediaries. Many of these financial institutions have resources
many times greater than those of the Bank. In addition, new financial
intermediaries such as money-market mutual funds and large retailers are not
subject to the same regulations and laws that govern the operation of
traditional depository institutions.
Recent changes in federal and state law have resulted in and are
expected to continue to result in increased competition. The reductions in legal
barriers to the acquisition of banks by out-of-state bank holding companies
resulting from implementation of interstate banking legislation and other recent
and proposed changes are expected to continue to further stimulate competition
in the markets in which the Bank operates, although it is not possible to
predict the extent or timing of such increased competition.
Employees
The Corporation has no compensated employees. At December 31, 1998, the
Bank employed 203 full-time employees and 29 part-time employees. The Bank is
not a party to any collective bargaining agreements, and employee relations are
considered to be good.
Regulation and Supervision
The Bank is chartered under the banking laws of the State of Indiana
and is subject to the supervision of, and is regularly examined by, the
Department of Financial Institutions (the "DFI") and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). The Corporation is a bank holding company
within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act (the "BHC Act") and is
registered as such with, and is subject to the supervision of, the Federal
Reserve Board (the "FRB"). Certain legislation and regulations affecting the
businesses of the Corporation and the Bank are discussed below.
General.
As a bank holding company, the Corporation is subject to the BHC Act.
The Corporation reports to, registers with, and is examined by the FRB. The FRB
also has the authority to examine the Corporation's subsidiaries which includes
the Bank.
The FRB requires the Corporation to maintain certain levels of capital.
See "Capital Standards" herein. The FRB also has the authority to take
enforcement action against any bank holding company that commits any unsafe or
unsound practice, violates certain laws, regulations, or conditions imposed in
writing by the FRB. See "Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement
Mechanisms" herein.
<PAGE>3
Under the BHC Act, a company generally must obtain the prior approval
of the FRB before it exercises a controlling influence over, or acquires
directly or indirectly, more than 5% of the voting shares or substantially all
of the assets of any bank or bank holding company. Thus, the Corporation is
required to obtain the prior approval of the FRB before it acquires, merges or
consolidates with any bank, or bank holding company. Any company seeking to
acquire, merge or consolidate with the Corporation also would be required to
obtain the FRB's approval.
The Corporation is generally prohibited under the BHC Act from
acquiring ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any
company that is not a bank or bank holding company and from engaging directly or
indirectly in activities other than banking, managing banks, or providing
services to affiliates of the holding company. A bank holding company, with the
approval of the FRB, may engage or acquire the voting shares of companies
engaged, in activities that the FRB has determined to be so closely related to
banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. A
bank holding company must demonstrate that the benefits to the public of the
proposed activity will outweigh the possible adverse effects associated with
such activity.
The FRB generally prohibits a bank holding company from declaring or
paying a cash dividend which would impose undue pressure on the capital of
subsidiary banks or would be funded only through borrowing or other arrangements
that might adversely affect a bank holding company's financial position. The
FRB's policy is that a bank holding company should not continue its existing
rate of cash dividends on its common stock unless its net income is sufficient
to fully fund each dividend and its prospective rate of earnings retention
appears consistent with its capital needs, asset quality and overall financial
condition.
Transactions between the Corporation, the Bank and any future
subsidiaries of the Corporation are subject to a number of other restrictions.
FRB policies forbid the payment by bank subsidiaries of management fees which
are unreasonable in amount or exceed the fair market value of the services
rendered (or, if no market exists, actual costs plus a reasonable profit).
Additionally, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from
engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with the extension of
credit, sale or lease of property, or furnishing of services. Subject to certain
limitations, depository institution subsidiaries of bank holding companies may
extend credit to, invest in the securities of, purchase assets from, or issue a
guarantee, acceptance, or letter of credit on behalf of, an affiliate, provided
that the aggregate of such transactions with affiliates may not exceed 10% of
the capital stock and surplus of the institution, and the aggregate of such
transactions with all affiliates may not exceed 20% of the capital stock and
surplus of such institution. The Corporation may only borrow from depository
institution subsidiaries if the loan is secured by marketable obligations with a
value of a designated amount in excess of the loan. Further, the Corporation may
not sell a low-quality asset to a depository institution subsidiary.
<PAGE>4
Capital Standards.
The FRB, FDIC and other federal banking agencies have risk-based
capital adequacy guidelines intended to provide a measure of capital adequacy
that reflects the degree of risk associated with a banking organization's
operations for both transactions reported on the balance sheet as assets, and
transactions, such as letters of credit and recourse arrangements, which are
reported as off-balance sheet items. Under these guidelines, nominal dollar
amounts of assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet items are
multiplied by one of several risk adjustment percentages, which range from 0%
for assets with low credit risk, such as certain U.S. government securities, to
100% for assets with relatively higher credit risk, such as business loans. On
March 2, 1999, the four federal banking agencies published in the Federal
Register uniform final rules that amended the leverage capital standards to make
them more uniform and streamlined and amended the risk-based standards
applicable to three types of assets. The new standards will become effective on
April 1, 1999, and are not anticipated to have a significant effect on the
Corporation.
A banking organization's risk-based capital ratios are obtained by
dividing its qualifying capital by its total risk-adjusted assets and
off-balance sheet items. The regulators measure risk-adjusted assets and
off-balance sheet items against both total qualifying capital (the sum of Tier 1
capital and limited amounts of Tier 2 capital) and Tier 1 capital. Tier 1
capital consists of common stock, retained earnings, noncumulative perpetual
preferred stock and minority interests in certain subsidiaries, less most other
intangible assets. Tier 2 capital may consist of a limited amount of the
allowance for loan losses and certain other instruments with some
characteristics of equity. The inclusion of elements of Tier 2 capital are
subject to certain other requirements and limitations of the federal banking
agencies. Since December 31, 1992, the federal banking agencies have required a
minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-adjusted assets and
off-balance sheet items of 8%, and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to
risk-adjusted assets and off-balance sheet items of 4%.
In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal banking regulators
require banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital to
total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio. For a banking organization
rated in the highest of the five categories used by regulators to rate banking
organizations, the minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets is
3%; all other institutions are required to have a minimum ration of 4%. In
addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines and leverage ratios that
apply across the industry, the regulators have the discretion to set individual
minimum capital requirements for specific institutions at rates significantly
above the minimum guidelines and ratios.
As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation was in compliance with the
risk-based capital guidelines. For a detailed discussion of the regulatory
capital requirements and the Corporation's and Bank's compliance with those
requirements, see "Capital Adequacy" in Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 14 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
<PAGE>5
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991
("FDICIA") required the federal financial institution agencies to prescribe
standards for assessing interest rate risk, which is the exposure of a bank's
earnings and capital arising from adverse movements in interest rates. The
banking agencies issued a joint policy statement on interest rate risk in May
1996 that describes prudent methods for monitoring such risk that rely primarily
on the maintenance of adequate internal risk measurement systems and active
oversight of risk management activities by the Board of Directors and senior
management.
Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms.
FDICIA requires each federal banking agency to take prompt corrective
action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions, including but
not limited to those that fall below one or more of the prescribed minimum
capital ratios. The law requires each federal banking agency to promulgate
regulations defining the following five categories in which an insured
depository institution will be placed, based on the level of its capital ratios:
well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized.
The federal banking agencies have issued uniform regulations
implementing the prompt corrective action provisions of FDICIA. An insured
depository institution generally will be classified in the following categories
based on capital measures indicated below:
"Well-Capitalized":
Total risk-based capital of 10% or more; Tier 1 risk-based
ratio capital of 6% or more; and Leverage ratio of 5% or more.
"Adequately Capitalized":
Total risk-based capital of at least 8%; Tier 1 risk-based
capital of at least 4%; and Leverage ratio of at least 4%.
"Undercapitalized":
Total risk-based capital less than 8%; Tier 1 risk-based
capital less than 4%; or Leverage ratio less than 4%.
<PAGE>6
"Significantly Undercapitalized":
Total risk-based capital less than 6%; Tier 1 risk-based
capital less than 3%; or Leverage ratio less than 3%.
"Critically Undercapitalized":
Tangible equity to total assets less than 2%.
An institution that, based upon its capital levels, is classified as
well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, or undercapitalized may be treated as
though it were in the next lower capital category if the appropriate federal
banking agency, after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an
unsafe or unsound condition or an unsafe or unsound practice warrants such
treatment. At each successive lower capital category, an insured depository
institution is subject to more restrictions. The federal banking agencies,
however, may not treat an institution as "critically undercapitalized" unless
its capital ratio actually warrants such treatment.
If an insured depository institution is undercapitalized, it will be
closely monitored by the appropriate federal banking agency. Undercapitalized
institutions must submit an acceptable capital restoration plan with a guarantee
of performance issued by the holding company. Further restrictions and sanctions
are required to be imposed on insured depository institutions that are
critically undercapitalized. The most important additional measure is that the
appropriate federal banking agency is required to either appoint a receiver for
the institution within 90 days or obtain the concurrence of the FDIC in another
form of action.
In addition to measures taken under the prompt corrective action
provisions, commercial banking organizations may be subject to potential
enforcement actions by the federal regulators for unsafe or unsound practices in
conducting their businesses or for violations of any law, rule, regulation or
any condition imposed in writing by the agency or any written agreement with the
agency. Enforcement actions may include the imposition of a conservator or
receiver, the issuance of a cease-and-desist order that can be judicially
enforced, the termination of insurance of deposits (in the case of a depository
institution), the imposition of civil money penalties, the issuance of
directives to increase capital, the issuance of formal and informal agreements,
the issuance of removal and prohibition orders against institution-affiliated
parties and the enforcement of such actions through injunctions or restraining
orders based upon a prima facie showing by the agency that such relief is
appropriate. Additionally, a holding company's inability to serve as a source of
strength to its subsidiary banking organizations could serve as an additional
basis for a regulatory action against the holding company.
<PAGE>7
As of December 31, 1998, the Bank was classified as "well-capitalized"
under the above guidelines. As discussed in the "Capital Adequacy" section of
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations in the Annual Report to Shareholders and Note 18 to the Corporation's
Financial Statements, which are incorporated herein by reference, the
acquisition of the three branches from Bank One Indiana, National Association,
which was completed on March 12, 1999, will reduce consolidated and bank-only
capital levels. In March 1999, the Corporation borrowed funds to contribute to
the Bank to maintain the Bank's well-capitalized status. While management
expects the Bank to remain well-capitalized following the consummation of this
transaction, the Corporation's capital levels may temporarily drop below the
minimum required level for capital adequacy purposes. Management will monitor
the Corporation's consolidated capital level and anticipates the minimum
required level for capital adequacy purposes to be met by the Corporation prior
to December 31, 1999. See Items 7 and 8 below.
Safety and Soundness Standards.
FDICIA also implemented certain specific restrictions on transactions
and required the regulators to adopt overall safety and soundness standards for
depository institutions related to internal control, loan underwriting and
documentation, and asset growth. Among other things, FDICIA limits the interest
rates paid on deposits by undercapitalized institutions, the use of brokered
deposits and the aggregate extension of credit by a depository institution to an
executive officer, director, principal stockholder or related interest, and
reduces deposit insurance coverage for deposits offered by undercapitalized
institutions for deposits by certain employee benefits accounts.
The FDICIA also required the agencies to establish safety and soundness
standards for insured financial institutions covering (1) internal controls,
information systems and internal audit systems; (2) loan documentation; (3)
credit underwriting; (4) interest rate exposure; (5) asset growth; (6)
compensation, fees and benefits; (7) asset quality, earnings and stock
valuation; and (8) excessive compensation for executive officers, directors or
principal shareholders which could lead to material financial loss.
The agencies have adopted guidelines covering most of these items.
Restrictions on Dividends and Other Distributions.
The power of the board of directors of an insured depository
institution to declare a cash dividend or other distribution with respect to
capital is subject to statutory and regulatory restrictions which limit the
amount available for such distribution depending upon the earnings, financial
condition and cash needs of the institution, as well as general business
conditions. FDICIA prohibits insured depository institutions from paying
management fees to any controlling persons or, with certain limited exceptions,
making capital distributions, including dividends, if, after such transaction,
the institution would be undercapitalized.
<PAGE>8
An FRB policy statement provides that a bank holding company should not
declare or pay a cash dividend to its stockholders if the dividend would place
undue pressure on the capital of its subsidiary banks or if the dividend could
be funded only through additional borrowings or other arrangements that might
adversely affect the financial position of the bank holding company.
Specifically, a bank holding company should not continue its existing rate of
cash dividends on its common stock unless its net income is sufficient to fully
fund each consistent with its capital needs, asset quality, and overall
financial condition. Further, the Corporation is expected to act as a source of
financial strength for the Bank and to commit resources to support the Bank in
circumstances when it might not do so absent such policy.
The Corporation's ability to pay dividends depends in large part on the
ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Corporation. The ability of the Bank
to pay dividends is subject to restrictions set forth in the Indiana banking
laws and regulations of the FDIC.
Under Indiana law, the Bank may declare a dividend in an amount deemed
expedient by the Board of Directors of the Bank. Any such dividend, however, may
not (i) impair the capital stock of the Bank, (ii) be in an amount greater than
the remainder of undivided profits then on hand after deducting losses, bad
debts, depreciation, and all other expenses, or (iii) constitute a withdrawal of
any portion of the capital stock of the Bank. In addition, the Bank must obtain
the prior approval of the DFI for the payment of any dividend if the total of
all dividends declared by the Bank during the calendar year, including the
proposed dividend would exceed the sum of (i) the total of the net profits of
the Bank and (ii) the retained net profits of the Bank for the previous two
years. The amount of "net profits" is determined by subtracting all current
operating expenses, actual losses, and all federal, state and local taxes from
all earnings from current operations plus actual recoveries on loans,
investments and other assets.
Additionally, under FDICIA, the Bank may not make any capital
distribution, including the payment of dividends, if after making such
distribution the Bank would be in any of the "under-capitalized" categories
under the FDIC's Prompt Corrective Action regulations.
Also, under the Financial Institution's Supervisory Act, the FDIC also
has the authority to prohibit the Bank from engaging in business practices which
the FDIC considers to be unsafe or unsound. It is possible, depending upon the
financial condition of the Bank and other factors, that the FDIC could assert
that the payment of dividends or other payments in some circumstances might be
such an unsafe or unsound practice and thereby prohibit such payment.
FDIC Insurance Assessments.
The FDIC has established several mechanisms to increase funds to
protect deposits insured by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") and the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), both of which are administered by the FDIC.
The Bank's deposits are insured through BIF except for those deposits the Bank
acquired from the Resolution Trust Corporation in December, 1990. This
acquisition consisted of two branches of the former Hometown Federal Savings
Bank in Delphi, Indiana, and these deposits remain insured through SAIF.
<PAGE>9
As required by FDICIA, the FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment
system for deposit insurance premiums. Under this system, depository
institutions are charged anywhere from zero to $.27 for every $100 in insured
domestic deposits, based on such institutions' capital levels and supervisory
subgroup assignment. The FDIC's rules set forth which supervisory subgroup
assignments are made by the FDIC, the assessment classification review
procedure, provide for the assignment of new institutions to the
"well-capitalized" assessment group, set forth when an institution is to make
timely adjustments as appropriate, and set forth the basis, and report data, on
which capital group assignments are made for insured branches of foreign banks,
and expressly address the treatment of certain lifeline accounts for which
special assessment treatment is given.
The BIF reached its required 1.25 reserve ratio in 1995, and in
response the FDIC reduced deposit insurance assessment rates on BIF-insured
deposits to historic low levels. Legislation enacted in September, 1996 included
provisions for the recapitalization of the SAIF. The legislation imposed a
one-time assessment in the amount of 65.7 basis points on all SAIF-insured
deposits held as of March 31, 1996. The Bank paid an assessment in the amount of
$31,000 on the small portion of its deposits that are SAIF-insured. As a result
of the payment of the special assessment and the adoption of regulations
implementing the legislation, rates for deposits insured through SAIF have been
brought into parity with BIF rates. The BIF and SAIF deposit insurance
assessment rates currently in effect range from zero to $.27 per $100 of insured
deposits, with the healthiest financial institutions, including the Bank, not
being required to pay any deposit insurance premiums.
Interstate Banking and Branching.
On September 29, 1994, the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Act") was signed into law. The
Interstate Act effectively permits nationwide banking. As of September 30, 1995,
the Interstate Act provides that adequately capitalized and adequately managed
bank holding companies may acquire banks in any state, even in those
jurisdictions that had previously barred acquisitions by out-of-state
institutions, subject to deposit concentration limits. The deposit concentration
limits provide that regulatory approval by the Federal Reserve Board may not be
granted for a proposed interstate acquisition if after the acquisition, the
acquiror on a consolidated basis would control more than 10% of the total
deposits nationwide or would control more than 30% of deposits in the state
where the acquiring institution is located. The deposit concentration state
limit does not apply for initial acquisitions in a state and, in every case, may
be waived by the state regulatory authority. Interstate acquisitions are subject
to compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"). States are permitted
to impose age requirements not to exceed five years on target banks for
interstate acquisitions.
Branching between states may be accomplished either by merging separate
banks located in different states into one legal entity, or by establishing de
novo branches in another state. Interstate branching by consolidation of banks
was permitted beginning in June 1, 1998, except in states that passed
legislation prior to that date "opting-out" of interstate branching. Banks
located in states that opted out of interstate branching may not participate in
interstate branching. The laws of the host state regarding community
reinvestment, fair lending, consumer protection (including usury limits) and
establishment of branches apply to the interstate branches.
<PAGE>10
De novo branching by an out-of-state bank is not permitted unless the
host state expressly permits de novo branching by banks from out-of-state. The
establishment of an initial de novo branch in a state is subject to the same
conditions as apply to initial acquisition of a bank in the host state other
than the deposit concentration limits. Effective March 14, 1996, Indiana "opted
in" to the interstate branching provision of the Interstate Act.
Community Reinvestment Act.
In October, 1994, the federal financial institution regulatory agencies
proposed a comprehensive revision of their regulations implementing the
Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"), enacted in 1977 to promote lending by
financial institutions to individuals and businesses located in low and moderate
income areas. In May, 1995, the proposed CRA regulations were published in final
form effective as of July 1, 1995. The revised CRA regulations emphasize an
assessment of actual performance rather than of the procedures followed by a
bank, to evaluate compliance with the CRA. Overall CRA compliance continues to
be rated across a four-point scale from "outstanding" to "substantial
noncompliance," and continues to be a factor in review of applications to merge,
establish new branches or form bank holding companies. In addition, any bank
rated in "substantial noncompliance" with the revised CRA regulations may be
subject to enforcement proceedings. Different evaluation methods are used
depending on the asset size of the bank.
The "lending, investments and service test method" is applicable to all
banks with more than $250 million in assets which are not wholesale or limited
purpose banks and do not elect to be evaluated by the "strategic plan assessment
method" which is discussed below. Central to this method is the requirement that
such banks collect and report to their primary federal banking regulators
detailed information regarding home mortgage, small business and farm and
community development loans which is then used to evaluate CRA compliance. At
the bank's option, data regarding consumer loans and any other loan distribution
it may choose to provide also may be collected and reported.
Using such data, a bank will be evaluated regarding its (i) lending
performance according to the geographic distribution of its loans, the
characteristics of its borrowers, the number and complexity of its community
development loans, the innovativeness or flexibility of its lending practices to
meet low and moderate income credit needs and, at the bank's election, lending
by affiliates or through consortia or third-parties in which the bank has an
investment interest; (ii) investment performance by measure of the bank's
"qualified investments," that is, the extent to which the bank's investments,
deposits, membership shares in a credit union, or grants primarily to benefit
low or moderate income individuals and small businesses and farms, address
affordable housing or other needs not met by the private market, or assist any
minority or women-owned depository institution by donating, selling on favorable
terms or provisioning on a rent-free basis any branch of the bank located in a
predominately minority neighborhood; and (iii) service performance by evaluating
the demographic distribution of the bank's branches and ATMs, its record of
opening and closing them, the availability of alternative retail delivery
systems (such as telephone banking, banking by mail or at work, and mobile
facilities) in low and moderate income geographies and to low and moderate
income individuals, and (given the characteristics of the bank's service area(s)
and its capacity and constraints) the extent to which the bank provides
"community development services" (services which primarily benefit low and
moderate income individuals or small farms and businesses or address affordable
housing needs not met by the private market) and their innovativeness and
responsiveness.
<PAGE>11
Any bank may request to be evaluated by the "strategic plan assessment
method" by submitting a strategic plan for review and approval. Such a plan must
involve public participation in its preparation, and contain measurable goals
for meeting low and moderate income credit needs through lending, investments
and provision of services. Such plans generally will be evaluated by measuring
strategic plan goals against standards similar to those which will be applied in
evaluating a bank according to the "lending, investments and service test
method."
The federal financial institution regulatory agencies issued a final
rule effective as of January 1, 1996, to make certain technical corrections to
the revised CRA regulations. Among other matters, the rule clarifies the
transition from the former CRA regulations to the revised CRA regulations by
confirming that when an institution either voluntarily or mandatorily becomes
subject to the performance tests and standards of the revised regulations, the
institution must comply with all of the requirements of the revised regulations
and is no longer subject to the provisions of the former CRA regulations.
Inter-Corporate Borrowings.
Bank holding companies are also restricted as to the extent to which
they and their subsidiaries can borrow or otherwise obtain credit from one
another or engage in certain other transactions. The "covered transactions" that
an insured depository institution and its subsidiaries are permitted to engage
in with their nondepository affiliates are limited to the following amounts: (1)
in the case of any one such affiliate, the aggregate amount of covered
transactions of the insured depository institution and its subsidiaries cannot
exceed 10% of the capital stock and the surplus of the insured depository
institution; and (ii) in the case of all affiliates, the aggregate amount of
covered transactions of the insured depository institution and its subsidiaries
cannot exceed 20% of the capital stock and surplus of the insured depository
institution. In addition, extensions of credit that constitute covered
transactions must be collateralized in prescribed amounts.
"Covered transactions" are defined by statute to include a loan or
extension of credit to the affiliate, a purchase of securities issued by an
affiliate, a purchase of assets from the affiliate (unless otherwise exempted by
the Federal Reserve Board), the acceptance of securities issued by the affiliate
as collateral for a loan and the issuance of a guarantee, acceptance, or letter
of credit for the benefit of an affiliate. Further, a bank holding company and
its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in
connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property or furnishing

Impact of Monetary Policies.
Banking is a business which depends on interest rate differentials. In
general, the difference between the interest paid by a bank on its deposits and
other borrowings, and the interest rate earned by banks on loans, securities and
other interest-earning assets comprises the major source of banks' earnings.
Thus, the earnings and growth of banks are subject to the influence of economic
conditions generally, both domestic and foreign, and also to the monetary and
fiscal policies of the United States and its agencies, particularly the FRB. The
FRB implements national monetary policy, such as seeking to curb inflation and
combat recession, by its open-market dealings in United States government
securities, by adjusting the required level of reserves for financial
institutions subject to reserve requirements and through adjustments to the
discount rate applicable to borrowings by banks which are members of the FRB.
The actions of the FRB in these areas influence the growth of bank loans,
investments and deposits and also affect interest rates. The nature and timing
of any future changes in such policies and their impact on the Corporation
cannot be predicted. In addition, adverse economic conditions could make a
higher provision for loan losses a prudent course and could cause higher loan
loss charge-offs, thus adversely affecting the Bank's net earnings.
Pending Legislation.
The United States Congress considered proposals for comprehensive
financial reform legislation during 1998, but none of the proposals was adopted.
The Senate and House Banking Committees each approved financial reform bills in
March 1999. The Corporation and Bank can not predict whether, or in what form,
any proposed legislation will be adopted or, if adopted, the extent to which
such adoption would affect the business of the Corporation or Bank.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-K and future filings made by the Corporation with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as other filings, reports and press
releases made or issued by the Corporation and the Bank, and oral statements
made by executive officers of the Corporation and Bank, may include
forward-looking statements relating to such matters as (a) assumptions
concerning future economic and business conditions and their effect on the
economy in general and on the markets in which the Corporation and the Bank do
business, and (b) expectations for increased revenues and earnings for the
Corporation and Bank through growth resulting from acquisitions, attraction of
new deposit and loan customers and the introduction of new products and
services. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions rather than
historical or current facts and, therefore, are inherently uncertain and subject
to risk.
<PAGE>13
The Corporation notes that a variety of factors could cause the actual
results or experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other
expectations described or implied by such forward-looking statements. The risks
and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and
results of the Corporation's and Bank's business include the following: (a) the
risk of adverse changes in business conditions in the banking industry generally
and in the specific markets in which the Bank operates; (b) changes in the
legislative and regulatory environment that negatively impact the Corporation
and Bank through increased operating expenses; (c) increased competition from
other financial and non-financial institutions; (d) the impact of technological
advances; and (e) other risks detailed from time to time in the Corporation's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Corporation and Bank do
not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements
subsequent to the date on which they are made.

period extend beyond the tenth anniversary of the date of grant of the Option.
Section 6.4 Option Exercise.
(a) The Company shall not be required to sell or issue shares under any Option
if the issuance of such shares shall constitute or result in a violation of
the Optionee or the Company of any provisions of any law, statute or
regulation of any governmental authority. Specifically, in connection with
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"), upon exercise of any Option, the
Company shall not be required to issue such shares unless the Committee has
received evidence satisfactory to it to the effect that registration under
the Act and applicable state securities laws is not required, unless the
offer and sale of securities under the Plan is registered or qualified
under the Act and applicable state laws. Any determination in this
connection by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive. If
shares are issued under any Option without registrations under the Act or
applicable state securities laws, the Optionee may be required to accept
the shares subject to such restrictions on transferability as may in the
reasonable judgment of the Committee be required to comply with exemptions
from registrations under such laws. The Company may, but shall in no event
be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Act
or applicable state securities laws. The Company shall not be obligated to
take any other affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an
Option or the issuance of shares pursuant thereto to comply with any law or
regulation of any governmental authority.
<PAGE>
(b) Subject to Section 6.4(c) and such terms and conditions as may be
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion upon the grant of an
Option, an Option may be exercised in whole or in part (but with respect
to whole shares only) and from time to time by delivering to the Company
at its principal office written notice of intent to exercise the Option
with respect to a specified number of shares.
(c) Options shall be exercisable according to the following vesting schedules:
Employees:

Provided, however, that upon the earlier of (i) the Optionee-Employee's
65th birth date or the Optionee-Director's 70th birth date, (ii) the
occurrence of an Applicable Event, (iii) the death of the Optionee (iv)
or total disability, all Options granted to the Optionee shall be fully
exercisable in accordance with terms of the Plan. For purposes of this
paragraph, an Optionee is totally disabled if he is receiving disability
benefits under the Social Security Act as the result of a total and
permanent disability, or is determined to be totally disabled under any
long-term disability plan sponsored by the Bank or Company.
At the discretion of the Committee, all or a portion of Options
previously granted to an Optionee can be amended to reduce the vesting
schedule or immediately 100% vest such Options.
<PAGE>
(d) Subject to such terms and conditions as may be determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion upon grant of any Option, payment for
the shares to be acquired pursuant to exercise of the Option shall be
made as follows:
(1) by delivering to the Company at its principal office a cashier's
or certified check, payable to the order of the Company, in the
amount of the Option Price for the number of shares of Stock with
respect to which the Option is then being exercised; or
(2) by delivering to the Company at its principal office certificates
representing Stock, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company,
having an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise
equal to the amount of the Option Price, for the number of shares
of Stock with respect to which the Option is then being
exercised; or
(3) by any combination of payments delivered pursuant to paragraphs
(d)(1) and (d)(2) above.
Section 6.5 Rights as Shareholder. An Optionee shall have no rights as a
shareholder with respect to any share subject to such Option prior to the
exercise of the Option and the purchase of such shares.
Section 6.6 Limited Rights. Upon the occurrence of an Applicable Event, an
Optionee shall have the right (without regard to the limitation on the exercise
of Options set forth in Section 6.4(c) of the Plan and similar limitations in
the Stock Option Agreement) to exercise Options then held, or to surrender
unexercised Options in exchange for a cash amount. Such cash amount shall be
equal to the product of (1) the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option,
or portion thereof which is surrendered, multiplied by (2) the amount by which
the highest price paid or to be paid per share pursuant to an Applicable Event
exceeds the exercise price.
ARTICLE VII
Termination, Amendment and Modification of Plan
Section 7.1 Termination. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time
and from time to time and in any respect amend, modify or terminate the Plan;
provided, however, that absent the approval of holders representing a majority
of the voting shares of stock of the Company, no such action may:
(a) increase the total number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan,
except as contemplated in Section 9.4 hereof; or
(b) withdraw the administration of the Plan from the Committee; or
(c) change the terms by which an Option may be exercised, in whole or in
part, as described in Section 6.4 of this Plan; or
<PAGE>
(d) change the limitation on the price at which Options may be granted
hereunder as provided by Section 6.2; or
(e) affect any Stock Option Agreement previously executed pursuant to the
Plan without the consent of the Optionee.
ARTICLE VIII
Withholding
Section 8.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to
deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state and local
taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to any grant, exercise, or
payment made under or as a result of the Plan. At the discretion of the
Committee, an Optionee may be permitted to pay to the Company the withholding
amount in the form of cash or previously owned shares. If payment of the
withholding amount is made by delivery of shares, the value of the shares
delivered shall equal the Fair Market Value of the shares on the day preceding
the date of exercise of the Option.
Section 8.2 Share Withholding. With respect to tax withholding required upon
exercise of Options, an Optionee may elect, subject to the approval of the
Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by
having the Company withhold shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the
tax is to be determined equal to an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state
and local taxes. If the Optionee is a "reporting person" under Section 16(a) of
the Exchange Act, then any withholding shall comply with Rule 16b-3(e)
thereunder.
<PAGE>
ARTICLE IX
Miscellaneous
Section 9.1 Nontransferability of Option. During the Optionee's lifetime, any
Option may be exercised only by the Optionee or any guardian or legal
representative of the Optionee, and the Option shall not be transferable except
in the case of the death of the Optionee, by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, and (i) as specifically permitted by and solely to the extent
permitted in the Stock Option Agreement, or (ii) to an immediate family member,
a partnership consisting solely of immediate family members, or trusts for the
benefit of immediate family members.
Section 9.2 Designation of Beneficiary. An Optionee may file a written
designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any Stock and/or cash. The
Optionee may change such designation of beneficiary at any time by written
notice to the Company. Upon the death of an Optionee and upon receipt by the
Company of proof of identity and the existence of a beneficiary at the time of
the Optionee's death validly designated by the Optionee under the Plan, the
Company shall deliver such Stock and/or cash to such beneficiary. In the event
of the death of an Optionee in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated
under the Plan who is living at the time of such Optionee's death, the Company
shall deliver such Stock and/or cash to the executor or the administrator of the
estate of the Optionee, or if no such executor or administrator has been
appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may
deliver such Stock and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents of
the Optionee as the Company may designate. No beneficiary shall, prior to the
death of the Optionee by whom he has been designated, acquire any interest in
the Stock and/or cash credited to the Optionee under the Plan.
Section 9.3 Effect of Termination of Employment, Retirement, Disability or
Death.
(a) If an Optionee's status as a Director and/or employee of the Company
and all Subsidiaries terminates for any reason other than retirement,
disability or death of the Optionee, before the date of expiration of
Options held by the Optionee, the right to exercise such Options shall
become null and void on the day three (3) months following the date of
such termination. In the case of an Optionee who terminates employment
with the Company and all Subsidiaries, but retains his status as a
Director of the Company or Bank, the Optionee shall not be considered
terminated for purposes of this Section 9.3. The date of such
termination shall be the date the Optionee ceases to be both a
Director and an employee of the Company and all Subsidiaries.
<PAGE>
(b) If an Optionee's status as a Director and/or employee of the Company and
all Subsidiaries terminates due to retirement, the three month period
specified in Section 9.3(a) shall become one year. In the case of an
Optionee who retires from the Company and all Subsidiaries, but retains
his status as a Director of the Company or Bank, the Optionee shall not
be considered terminated for purposes of this Section 9.3. The date of
such termination by retirement shall be the date the Optionee ceases to
be both a Director and an employee of the Company and all Subsidiaries.
(c) For an Optionee who terminates employment and/or board service with the
Company and all Subsidiaries due to disability, as defined in Internal
Code Section 22 (e) (3), the three month period specified in Section
9.3(a) shall become one year.
(d) In the event of the death of an Optionee while in the employ and/or
board service of the Company or Bank or within three months after
termination of such employment and/or board service, the executors,
administrators, legatees or distributes of the estate of the Optionee
shall have the right to exercise any Options which became exercisable
prior to or on account of the Optionees's death but only within a period
of one year from the date of the Optionee's death (even if the Option
period as defined in Section 6.3 would have expired earlier had the
Optionee lived) after which time any unexercised portion of all
outstanding Options shall expire.
Section 9.4 Antidilution. The provisions of subsections (a), (b) and (c) shall
apply in the event that the outstanding shares of Stock are changed into or
exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the
Company or another entity by reason of any merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, stock split or
stock dividend.
(a) The aggregate number and kind of shares subject to Options, which may be
granted hereunder, shall be adjusted appropriately;
(b) Rights under outstanding Options granted hereunder, both as to the
number of subject shares and the Option Price, shall be adjusted
appropriately; and
<PAGE>
(c) Where dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any merger or
combination in which the Company is not a surviving company is involved,
each outstanding Option granted hereunder shall, subject to Section 6.6,
terminate.
The foregoing adjustments and the manner of application of the foregoing
provisions shall be determined solely by the Committee and any such adjustment
may provide for the elimination of fractional share interests.
Section 9.5 Application of Funds. The proceeds received by the Company from the
sale of Stock pursuant to Options shall be used for general corporate purposes.
Section 9.6 No Right to Continued Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan or
in any Option granted hereunder or in any Stock Option Agreement, relating
thereto shall confer upon any employee or Director, the right to continue in
such position with the Company or the Bank.
Section 9.7 Other Compensation Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect
any other stock option or incentive or other compensation plans in effect for
the Company or the Bank, nor shall the Plan preclude the Company or the Bank
from establishing any other forms of incentive or other compensation for
employees or Directors of the Company or the Bank.
Section 9.8 No Obligation to Exercise Options. The granting of an Option shall
impose no obligation upon the Optionee to exercise such Option.
Section 9.9 Plan Binding on Successors. The Plan shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the Company.
Section 9.10 Compliance with Section 16. If the Company has a class of equity
securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and the Plan is
qualified under Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the Exchange Act,
transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with all applicable
conditions of such Rule or its successors. To the extent any provision of the
Plan or action by the Committee fails to so comply, the Committee may amend the
Plan and the terms of any outstanding Option, and any action of the Committee
which fails to comply shall be deemed void to the extent permitted by law and
deemed advisable by the Committee.
Section 9.11 Investment Representation and Restrictions. The Company may require
Optionee's receiving shares pursuant to any Option under the Plan to represent
to and agree with the Company in writing that the Optionee is acquiring the
shares for investment without a view to distribution thereof. No shares shall be
issued or transferred pursuant to an Option unless such issuance or transfer
complies with all relevant provisions of law, including but not limited to, the
(i) limitations, if any, imposed in the state of issuance or transfer, (ii)
restrictions, if any, imposed by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the
Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and (iii)
requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Company's shares may then be
listed. The certificates for such shares may include any legend which the
Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer.

hereof are inserted for convenience of reference; they constitute no part of the
Plan.

the Company terminates by reason of a Qualifying Termination as defined in

Miscellaneous

merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise, and shall obtain the
assumption hereof by such successor. In such event, all references herein to the
Company shall be deemed and construed to be references to such successor,
provided, however that such assignment and assumption shall not reduce or affect
any of the obligations of the assignor hereunder, which obligations shall
continue in full force and effect as the obligations of a principal and not as
the obligations of a surety to the same extent as though no assignment had been
made.
Section 6.02 Legal Expenses. In the event that the Participant or his successors
institute any legal action to enforce their rights under, or to recover damages
for breach of, the provisions of this Plan, the Participant or his successors,
if the prevailing party, shall be entitled to recover from the Company actual
expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with such legal
action.
Section 6.03 Titles. The titles of sections hereof are intended solely for
convenience, and no provision hereof is to be construed by reference to any such
title.
Section 6.04 Amendment or Termination of Plan. The Company may amend or
terminate the Plan at any time, without the consent of Participants. Provided,
however, that no amendment or termination of the Plan shall divest any Director,
Participant or Beneficiary of his contractual right to receive payment under the
Plan prior to and after the date of such amendment or termination.
Section 6.05 Severability. In the event that any provision or portion hereof is
determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining
provisions and portions hereof shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in
full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however,
that if the remaining provisions and portions hereof are so essentially and
inseparably connected, and so dependent upon, the provision or portion declared
invalid that they are incomplete and incapable of being given effect without
such provision or portion, then this entire Plan shall be deemed to be invalid
and unenforceable.
Section 6.06 No Participant Interest or Trust. Neither anything contained herein
nor any action taken pursuant to the provisions hereof shall create or be
construed to create an interest of the Participant in any insurance or annuity
policy purchased and owned by the Company for the purpose of paying the
retirement benefits payable hereunder, and neither anything contained herein nor
any such action shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a
fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant, his beneficiary
or any other person. Any funds that may be set aside or invested by the Company
for the purpose of paying the Supplemental Retirement Benefits payable hereunder
shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general funds of the
Company, and no person other than the Company shall, by virtue of the provisions
hereof, have any interest in such funds. To the extent that any person acquires
a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no
greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
Section 6.07 Other Benefits. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to exclude
a Director from any supplemental compensation, bonus, pension, insurance,
severance pay or other benefit to which he might otherwise be or become entitled
as a Director of the Company.

Company.

rights whatsoever against the Company as a result of this Plan except those
expressly granted hereunder. Nothing herein shall be construed to grant any

masculine gender shall be read as the feminine gender where appropriate and the
singular form of words shall be read as the plural where appropriate.
Section 6.12 Governing Law. Except as otherwise required by law, the validity,
construction and administration of this Plan shall be determined under the laws
of the State of Indiana.

(1) Net interest income has been presented on both a tax equivalent and non-tax
equivalent basis. The tax equivalent basis was calculated using a 34% tax
rate for all periods presented. The tax equivalent adjustment reverses the
tax equivalent basis in order to present net interest income in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as reflected in the
consolidated financial statements.
(2) Per share data has been retroactively adjusted to reflect stock dividends
and splits. Amounts do not consider the dilutive effect of stock options
outstanding.
(3) The loan to deposit ratio calculation excludes loans held for sale.
(4) The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the
sum of net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, and noninterest
income.

The Corporation earned $5,377,000, $4,808,000, and $4,091,000, or $2.26, $2.02,
and $1.72 per share for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996,
respectively. Net interest income growth accounted for a significant portion of
the 11.8% and 17.5% earnings increase the Corporation recorded in 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Earnings were boosted in both years by increased net gains on
loans sold in the secondary mortgage market, in addition to increased fees
generated by the Bank's investment brokerage department. Conversely, offsetting
a portion of 1998 and 1997 profits were increases recognized in the
Corporation's provision for loan losses and salaries and employee benefits.
Return on average assets (ROA) was 1.18%, 1.15%, and 1.08% for the periods
ending December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, while return on average
equity (ROE) was 13.17%, 13.16%, and 12.35% for those same time periods.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income is the most significant component of the Corporation's
earnings. Net interest income is the difference between interest and fees
realized on earning assets, primarily loans and securities, and interest paid on
deposits and other borrowed funds. The net interest margin is this difference
expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. Net interest income is
determined by several factors, including the volume of earning assets and
liabilities, the mix of earning assets and liabilities, and the overall level of
interest rates. Although there are a certain number of these factors which can
be controlled by management policies and actions, certain other factors, such as
the general level of credit demand, Federal Reserve Board monetary policy, and
changes in tax laws are beyond the control of management. Tables 1 through 4 are
an integral part in analyzing the components of net interest income and the
changes which have occurred between the time periods presented. Table 1 shows
the Corporation's net interest income from 1994 through 1998. Table 2 - Average
Balance Sheets and Interest Rates represent the major components of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. For analytical
purposes, interest income presented in the table has been adjusted to a tax
equivalent basis assuming a 34% tax rate for all years. The tax equivalent
adjustment recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and
tax-exempt assets.

Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for 1998 was 8.7% higher than that
for 1997, while the net interest margin for 1998 was 4.34%, or 2 basis points
lower than the prior year. Tax equivalent net interest income was 14.7% higher
in 1997 compared to 1996, as the net interest margin increased 13 basis points
to 4.36% from that of 1996.
There were a number of similarities between the events of 1998 and 1997 in terms
of growth the Corporation experienced, as well as the interest rate environment
in which the Corporation operated. The most noticeable difference between the
two years was that the interest rate environment declined at a more rapid pace
in 1998 than in 1997. This downward trend in the interest rate environment
resulted in earning assets repricing at a quicker pace and at a lower interest
rate than the repricing and maturity of certain interest-bearing liabilities.
Overall, the increase in net interest-earning asset volume during the year more
than adequately compensated for the general decline in yields, which resulted in
higher net interest income, but a lower net interest margin.
<PAGE>13.8
The increase in 1997 net interest income was due to the combination of increased
earning asset volume, along with lower cost of funds due to the general decline
in interest rates during the last half of 1997. The Corporation continued the
shift from investment securities to loans, and although average investment
securities yields increased from the prior year, management enhanced earnings
through the higher yields associated with loans. Much like 1998, the 1997 loan
growth was supported with deposit growth, the shift from investment securities,
and additional long-term debt. Also adding to 1997 net interest income was the
effect of lower interest rates paid on interest-bearing liability accounts,
which reduced the Corporation's cost of funds 4 basis points from the prior
year.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES AND ASSET QUALITY
The provision for loan losses represents charges made to earnings to maintain an
adequate allowance for loan losses. The allowance is maintained at an amount
believed to be sufficient to absorb possible losses that may be experienced in
the credit portfolio. Factors considered in establishing an appropriate
allowance include: a careful assessment of the financial condition of the
borrower; a realistic determination for the value and adequacy of underlying
collateral; the condition of the local economy and the condition of the specific
industry of the borrower; a comprehensive analysis of the levels and trends of
loan categories; and a review of delinquent and classified loans.
The Corporation maintains a comprehensive loan review program to evaluate loan
administration, credit quality, and loan documentation. This program also
includes a regular review of problem loan reports, delinquencies, and
charge-offs. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a
quarterly basis. This evaluation focuses on specific loan reviews, changes in
the type and volume of the loan portfolio given the current and forecasted
economic conditions, and historical loss experience. Any one of the following
conditions may necessitate a review of a specific loan: a question has been
raised whether the customer's cash flow or net worth are sufficient to repay the
loan; the loan has been criticized in a regulatory examination; the accrual of
interest has been suspended; or other reasons where either the ultimate
collectibility of the loan is in question, or the loan has other special or
unusual characteristics which require special monitoring.
Activity in the allowance for loan losses is reflected in Table 5 - Analysis of
Allowance for Loan Losses. The recorded values of loans and leases actually
removed from the consolidated balance sheets are referred to as charge-offs and,
after netting out recoveries on previously charged-off assets, become net
charge-offs. The Corporation's policy is to charge-off loans when, in
management's opinion, the loan is deemed uncollectible, although concerted
efforts are made to maximize recovery.

Nonperforming assets and their relative percentages to loan balances are
presented in Table 6 - Nonperforming Assets. The level of nonperforming loans
and leases is an important element in assessing asset quality and the relevant
risk in the credit portfolio. Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans,
restructured loans and loans delinquent 90 days or more. Loans are evaluated for
nonaccrual when payments are past due over 90 days. Another element associated
with asset quality is other real estate owned (OREO), which represents
properties acquired by the Corporation through loan defaults by customers.

The consolidated provision for loan losses was $980,000, $620,000, and $240,000
for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Although nonperforming loan totals and
delinquency trends have been moving upward during the latter part of 1998,
management believes the level of nonperforming loans remains at a very
manageable level as a percent of loans.
The allowance as a percent of loans had been declining in the two years prior to
the current year. Management's identification of a specific area of risk, along
with the Corporation's continued loan growth and increased nonperforming loan
totals resulted in management's decision to increase the provision for loan
losses to $980,000 for 1998. With hog prices dropping significantly during the
latter part of the fourth quarter of 1998, management conducted an analysis of
the pork producer sector. This review indicated the Corporation had extended in
excess of $8 million dollars to these hog-producing borrowers, and, as a result,
management allocated a specific reserve to these credits.
During 1998 there was a shift in the allocation of allowance for loan losses.
This movement, primarily from the unallocated to the commercial and agricultural
category, occurred primarily due to the combination of higher nonaccrual loan
balances and the identification of the potential risks associated with pork
producer credits.
The $380,000 increase in the 1997 provision for loan losses was primarily
attributed to the 13.2% average growth experienced in the overall loan
portfolio. The amount of future year provisions for loan losses will be subject
to adjustment based on future evaluations of the loan loss reserve adequacy.
While the restructured loan category of nonperforming loan totals declined
during 1998, increases were realized in nonaccrual and 90 days or more past due
balances. A total of seven commercial borrowers with loans totaling
approximately $829,000 and three mortgage loan borrowers with loans totaling
approximately $525,000 were added to the nonaccrual list in 1998. One commercial
loan totaling $556,000 accounted for 67.1% of the $829,000 added to nonaccrual
status. A specific reserve allowance has been placed on each of these credits,
and management expects losses, if any, will approximate amounts reserved. As of
December 31, 1998, loans 90 days or more past due had increased $270,000, or
53.5%, from the prior year. While commercial loan balances in this category
declined $65,000, mortgage and indirect installment loan balances increased
$183,000 and $104,000, respectively. Management will continue to monitor the
activity and performance of these loans.
Management believes five credits totaling approximately $748,000 as of December
31, 1998 met the criteria for an impaired loan. The $556,000 commercial loan
mentioned in the above paragraph accounted for 89.5% of the increase from the
prior year. A specific reserve allocation has been made in the allowance for
loan losses for the excess of the loan balance over the estimated future cash
flows in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standard No. 114 and
118. Application of these accounting statements has not had a material effect on
Corporation's financial statements.
The $208,000 decrease in other real estate owned ("OREO") in 1998 related to the
sale of one parcel of property in February, whereby the Corporation recorded a
$43,000 gain. As of December 31, 1998, there were two parcels of other real
estate held by the Corporation with a remaining book value of $22,000.
<PAGE>13.12
Management believes loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful,
substandard, or special mention that are not included in nonperforming or
impaired loans do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which
will have a material impact on future operating results, liquidity, or capital
resources.
In addition to loans classified for regulatory purposes, management also
designates certain loans for internal monitoring purposes in a watch category.
Loans may be placed on management's watch list as a result of delinquent status,
concern about the borrower's financial condition, or the value of the collateral
securing the loan, substandard classification during regulatory examinations, or
simply as a result of management's desire to monitor more closely a borrower's
financial condition and performance. Watch category loans may include loans with
loss potential that are still performing and accruing interest and may be
current under the terms of the loan agreements; however, management may have a
significant degree of concern about the borrowers' ability to continue to
perform according to the terms of the loans. Loss exposure on these loans is
typically evaluated based primarily upon the estimated liquidation value of the
collateral securing the loans. Also, watch category loans may include credits
which, although adequately secured and performing, reflect past delinquency
problems or unfavorable financial trends exhibited by the borrowers.
All watch list loans are subject to additional scrutiny and monitoring. The
Corporation's philosophy encourages loan officers to identify borrowers that
should be monitored in this fashion and believes this process ultimately results
in the identification of problem loans in a more timely fashion.
As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation had loans totaling $803,000 on its
watch list which were not included in impaired or nonperforming loans.

</TABLE>
<PAGE>13.14
Noninterest income increased 18.0% to $4,916,000 in 1998 compared to $4,168,000
in 1997. Primary sources of noninterest income were income from fiduciary
activities, service charges on deposit accounts, and net gain on secondary
market mortgage loan sales.
Income from fiduciary activities increased 8.9% during 1998. The majority of the
increase was attributed to the following: the general increase in overall market
values of trust assets, an increase in the departmental fee structure, and an
increase in the number of high market value accounts obtained throughout the
year. Service charges on deposit accounts increased 4.4% due to the deposit base
growth and more accounts being assessed fees, predominately early withdrawal
fees on certificates of deposit. Other operating income rose 9.2% over the prior
year primarily due to two areas. An increase in gross fees recorded by the
Bank's Investment Center, a full service brokerage operation offered through
Raymond James Financial Services, Inc., member NASD/SIPC, in addition to the
increase posted in the ATM fee income, primarily due to the first full year
effect of surcharge fees assessed on all non-bank customers, accounted for
nearly all of the 9.2% increase in other operating income.
Net gain on secondary market mortgage loan sales recorded a 70.5% increase
compared to the prior year. The lower interest rate environment coupled with the
ongoing strength of the local economy gave rise to a 67.1% increase in the
dollar amount of loan originations and a 66.2% increase in the dollar amount of
loans sold during the year. Any increase from the origination and sales of
mortgage loans is extremely dependent upon the current interest rate environment
as well as customer demand. The Corporation has been developing relationships
with builders and real estate agents, and, given a stable or declining interest
rate environment, management expects this area of activity to be a continued
source of significant income. The statements in this paragraph relating to the
secondary market mortgage department and its operations are forward-looking
statements which may or may not be accurate due to the impossibility of
predicting future economic and business events, and the level of future interest
rates.
Noninterest income during 1997 increased 21.8% compared to 1996. The same areas
of growth in 1998 occurred in 1997 as well. New accounts, an increase in the fee
structure, and the exceptional year in the stock market led to a 9.0% increase
in income from fiduciary activities. In a similar fashion, service charges on
deposit accounts increased 12.4% due to an increase in the deposit fee structure
along with deposit growth and a higher number of accounts being assessed fees.
Other operating income rose 25.0% during 1997. Again, a 64.3% increase in gross
investment center fees, in addition to a 75.8% increase in ATM income, mainly
surcharge fees, was responsible for the majority of the overall increase.
Total noninterest expense rose 8.4% to $13,610,000 in 1998 compared to the 12.2%
increase recorded in 1997. As a percentage of total average assets, total
noninterest expense was 2.9% and 3.0% for 1998 and 1997, respectively. Salaries
and employee benefits increased 9.7% during the current year. The full year
effect of the additional personnel added in 1997 due to the Monticello branch
acquisition, along with the increases in commissions paid to secondary market
and Investment Center personnel as a result of increased production contributed
to a portion of the overall increase in 1998. In addition, general wage
increases and a 38.5% rise in health insurance costs in 1998 were offset
somewhat by a reduction in the amount of expense recorded for executive
management's stock appreciation rights.
Equipment expense increased 8.7% due to higher equipment maintenance costs, in
addition to expenses associated with bringing certain pieces of equipment in
compliance with Y2K requirements.
Other operating expenses increased 7.4% mainly as a result of the Corporation's
increased marketing and advertising campaign.
Total noninterest expense increased 12.2% in 1997 compared to 1996 predominately
due to higher salary and employee benefit costs. The full year effect of
personnel gained in the Monticello branch acquisition, in addition to added
personnel in the secondary market department, along with higher commissions paid
to secondary market loan originators and Investment Center personnel were the
leading factors in this category.
<PAGE>13.15
Occupancy expense increased 5.8% during 1997, primarily as a result of higher
depreciation and maintenance and repair costs associated with the first full
year of the Monticello branch.
Equipment expense decreased 3.9% in 1997 from the prior year as a result of
items that were fully depreciated in 1996 and were not replaced in 1997, thus
causing lower depreciation expense.
Other operating expense increased 6.8% in 1997. In general, overhead expenses,
including goodwill, were higher primarily as a result of the first full year of
operation of the Monticello branch that was acquired.
INCOME TAXES
The Corporation records a provision for income taxes currently payable, along
with a provision for those taxes payable in the future. Such deferred taxes
arise from differences in timing of certain items for financial statement
reporting rather than income tax reporting. The major difference between the
effective tax rate applied to the Corporation's financial statement income and
the federal statutory rate of 34% is the result of interest on tax-exempt
securities and loans.
The Corporation had regular tax and alternative minimum tax net operating loss
carryforwards which were fully utilized during 1998.
The Corporation's effective tax rate was 33.5%, 34.8%, and 34.0% in 1998, 1997,
and 1996, respectively. Further tax information regarding the Corporation can be
found in Note 1 and Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
SECURITIES
Securities held-to-maturity are those which the Corporation has both the
positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, and are reported at amortized
cost. Securities available-for-sale are those which the Corporation may decide
to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons.
Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains
and losses included as a separate component of equity, net of tax. The
Corporation does not maintain any securities for trading purposes.
Table 9 - Securities and Securities Maturity Schedule summarizes the carrying
values of securities from 1996 through 1998 and the maturity distribution at

</TABLE>
<PAGE>13.18
The majority of the securities portfolio is comprised of U. S. Treasury
securities, federal agency securities, state municipal securities (tax-exempt),
mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities.
The securities portfolio carries varying degrees of risk. Investments in U. S.
Treasury and federal agency securities have little or no credit risk.
Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are substantially issues of federal
agencies. Obligations of states and political subdivisions and corporate
securities are the areas of highest potential credit exposure in the portfolio.
This risk is minimized through the purchase of high quality investments. The
Corporation's investment policy requires that obligations of states and
political subdivisions and corporate bonds must have a rating of A or better
when purchased. The vast majority of these investments were rated A or better at
December 31, 1998. The risk of non-rated municipal bonds is minimized by
limiting the amounts invested and by investing in local issues. Management
believes the non-rated securities in the Corporation's portfolio are of high
quality. No securities of an individual issuer, excluding U.S. Government and
its agencies, exceed 10% of the Corporation's shareholders' equity as of
December 31, 1998. The Corporation does not use off-balance sheet derivative
financial instruments as defined in SFAS No. 119, "Disclosure about Derivative
Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments."
Total securities were $81,835,000 and $71,845,000 as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively. Although in 1998 the total securities balance increased
approximately $9,990,000, or 13.9% from the prior year, the average balance of
securities actually decreased approximately $3,678,000, or 4.6% during the year
primarily because of funding the ongoing growth of the loan portfolio. During
1998, the markets witnessed a significant flight to quality which reduced U.S.
Government and agency yields anywhere from 85 to 115 basis points. These
conditions led to the change in securities mix, predominately from U.S.
Governments and agencies to states and political subdivisions. As U.S.
Government and agency securities matured or were called during the year, their
proceeds were reinvested into other sectors, mainly states and political
subdivisions, which were not subject to the run-up in prices and corresponding
reduction in yield.
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the security portfolio held structured notes
totaling $1,995,000 and $1,892,000, respectively. The investment policy has
specific guidelines describing total holdings, maturity, and price volatility
parameters regarding these types of security instruments. All structured notes
are U.S. Government agency issues.
Management's security strategy includes utilizing short-term securities,
adjustable rate instruments, and easily marketable securities primarily to fund
the continuing growth of the loan portfolio. Tax-free and intermediate taxable
bonds are used to further enhance earnings. As of December 31, 1998,
approximately 94% of the total investment security portfolio was classified in
the available-for-sale category, which allows flexibility in the asset/liability
management function. Sell strategies are executed, on occasion, when the
interest rate environment provides the opportunity to boost the overall
portfolio performance.
The change which occurred in the unrealized gain/loss on securities between 1998
and 1997 was a result of the swing in the interest rate environment during that
time period, in conjunction with the change in the portfolio mix. It is not
likely the Corporation will realize any losses in the security portfolio to
satisfy loan growth or liquidity needs, and the change in equity due to market
value fluctuations in the available-for-sale portfolio are not used in the
regulatory capital calculation. This paragraph includes forward-looking
statements that are based on management's assumptions regarding future economic
and business conditions. Such economic and business assumptions are inherently
uncertain and subject to risk and may prove to be invalid, causing management to
respond to the present circumstances and conditions.
<PAGE>13.19
LOANS
The loan portfolio constitutes the major earning asset of the Corporation, and
offers the best alternative for maximizing interest spread above the cost of
funds. The Corporation's loan personnel have the authority to extend credit
under guidelines established and approved by the Board of Directors. Any credit
which exceeds the authority of the loan officer is forwarded to the Bank's loan
committee for approval. The loan committee is comprised of various experienced
loan officers and three bank directors -- the President, and two outside
directors, one of which is the Chairman. Each outside director participates on
this committee on a monthly rotating basis. All credits which exceed the loan
committee's lending authority are presented to the full Board of Directors for
ultimate approval or denial. The loan committee not only acts as an approval
body to ensure consistent application of the Corporation's loan policy, but also
provides valuable insight through communication and pooling of knowledge,
judgment, and experience of its members.
The Corporation's primary lending area generally includes Tippecanoe, White, and
contiguous counties in Northwest Indiana. The Corporation extends out-of-area
credit only to borrowers who are considered to be low risk, and only on a very
limited basis.
Table 10 - Loans Outstanding reflects outstanding balances by loan type for the
past five years. Additional loan information is presented in Note 3 to the
consolidated financial statements.

As mentioned throughout, the Corporation's loan portfolio continued its growth
during 1998. Total loans increased $41,601,000, or 13.3% in 1998, while 1997 saw
an increase of $43,287,000, or 16.1%. The real estate-mortgage category posted a
$33,081,000, or 25.9% increase and the real estate-construction portion of the
portfolio increased $10,926,000, or 63.8% over the prior year. The growth in
these two loan areas can be attributed mainly to the ongoing economic expansion
and prosperity the Greater Lafayette area continues to experience. Tippecanoe
County also continues to enjoy one of the lowest unemployment rates in the
state.
<PAGE>13.20
In an effort to control the level of net charge-offs recorded in the installment
loan area, management did not aggressively pursue the indirect automobile line
of business during 1998. As a result, total installment loan balances decreased
$5,018,000, or 9.1% from one year ago, and indirect loan net charge-offs also
declined to $127,000 in 1998, compared to $257,000 in 1997. As loan balances
have continued to escalate during the last few years, the loan portfolio has
remained diversified by loan type, borrower, and industry. As of December 31,
1998, there were no concentrations of credits in excess of 10.0%.
The real estate-mortgage category remained the largest segment of the loan
portfolio as of December 31, 1998. These loans carry a lower degree of risk
because of the nature of the loan, as evidenced by the fact there have been zero
net charge-offs for this loan type over the last five years. Management believes
the degree of risk assumed on any loan is commensurate with the interest rate
assessed, and is thereby able to receive a higher rate of return on commercial
and real estate-construction loans as compared to residential real estate loans.
Although these loan types usually possess increased elements of risk, the
Corporation's lending practices, policies, and procedures that are in place are
intended to mitigate certain risks associated with such loans. As previously
mentioned, the indirect lending function continues to be the most significant
portion of the consumer loan portfolio. A specific policy pertaining to these
loan types, including separate reporting requirements, are in place for
monitoring purposes. Total indirect loan balances declined approximately
$6,200,000 to $31,800,000 as of December 31, 1998.
Table 11 - Loan Liquidity and Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates reflects
the maturity schedule of commercial and agricultural loans. Also indicated are
fixed and variable rate loans maturing after one year for the same loan

DEPOSITS
The Corporation offers a wide variety of deposit services to individual and
commercial customers, such as noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing checking
accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit.
The deposit base provides the major funding source for earning assets. The
Corporation posted a record year in deposit growth. Total deposits increased
$40,351,000, or 11.4% in 1998, compared to $13,645,000, or 4.0% in 1997. Aiding
the growth in deposit totals were the number of new accounts opened during the
year. On a net basis, the Corporation gained more than 2,200 deposit accounts
during 1998. Given the deposit growth over the years, overall deposit mix has
not changed significantly. Time deposits remain the largest single source of the
Corporation's funds.
A three year schedule of average deposits by type and maturities of time
deposits greater than $100,000 is presented in Table 12 Deposit Information.

To provide temporary liquidity and as an alternative to borrowing federal funds,
the Corporation will acquire, from time to time, large balance certificates of
deposit, generally from public entities, for short-term time periods. The
Corporation had such funds totaling $500,000, $2,000,000, and $8,300,000 as of
December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in the
Corporation's deposit base over the past few years led to the reduction in these
fund types.
BORROWINGS
Aside from the core deposit base and large denomination certificates of deposit
mentioned above, the remaining funding sources include short-term and long-term
borrowings. Short-term borrowings consist of federal funds purchased from other
financial institutions on an overnight basis, retail repurchase agreements which
generally mature within thirty days, and U.S. Treasury demand notes.

</TABLE>
As presented in Table 13 - Short-term Borrowings, the balance of the
Corporation's short-term borrowings were comprised of retail repurchase
agreements and a treasury tax open-end note as of December 31, 1998, 1997, and
1996. For the years presented, the retail repurchase agreements accounted for
substantially the entire outstanding balance.
The Bank became a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis ("FHLBI")
in 1992 and has the authority of the Board of Directors to borrow up to $40
million. All current and any future borrowings are secured by a blanket
collateral pledge of the Bank's U.S. Government and U.S. Government agency
securities, along with one-to-four family residential loans. Long-term debt,
consisting of FHLBI borrowings, as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $23,854,000
and $19,886,000, respectively. Along with the annual mortgage advance principal
repayments, the Corporation increased its borrowings from the FHLBI by
$4,800,000 during 1998 primarily to fund the continued loan growth. The
attractive interest rates along with the fixed rate feature of the advances made
this a more desirable source of funds, as opposed to the short-term nature of
certain repurchase agreement contracts. Additional information regarding
short-term borrowings and long-term debt can be found in Note 7 and Note 8 of
the consolidated financial statements.
<PAGE>13.23
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk of the Corporation encompasses exposure to both liquidity risk and
interest rate risk and is reviewed quarterly by the asset/liability committee
("ALCO") and the Board of Directors.
The liquidity of the parent company is dependent on the receipt of dividends
from the banking subsidiary. Certain restrictions exist regarding the transfer
of funds from the subsidiary as explained in Note 14 to the consolidated
financial statements. Management expects that in the aggregate, the banking
subsidiary will continue to have the ability to dividend adequate funds to the
parent company. The statements in this paragraph relating to the parent company
receiving dividends from the subsidiary bank are forward-looking statements
which may or may not be accurate due to the impossibility of predicting future
economic and business events.
The banking subsidiary's source of funding is predominantly core deposits
consisting of both commercial and individual deposits, maturities of securities,
repayments of loan principal and interest, federal funds purchased, securities
sold under agreements to repurchase, and long-term borrowings from the FHLBI.
The deposit base is diversified between individual and commercial accounts which
helps avoid dependence on large concentrations of funds. The Corporation does
not solicit certificates of deposit from brokers. Table 14 - Funding Uses and
Sources details the main components of cash flows for 1998 and 1997.

</TABLE>
<PAGE>13.24
The Corporation's interest rate risk is measured by computing estimated changes
in net interest income and the net portfolio value ("NPV") of its cash flows
from assets and liabilities in the event of adverse movements in interest rates.
Interest rate risk exposure is measured using an interest rate sensitivity
analysis to determine the change in NPV in the event of hypothetical changes in
interest rates. Another method also used to enhance the overall process is
interest rate sensitivity gap analysis. This method is utilized to determine the
repricing characteristics of the Corporation's assets and liabilities.
NPV represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market
value of assets minus the market value of liabilities. This particular analysis
assesses the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a
sudden and sustained 1% - 2% increase and decrease in interest rates. The
Corporation's Board of Directors adopted an interest rate risk policy which
established a 45% minimum and maximum increase and decrease in the NPV in the
event of a sudden and sustained 1% - 2% increase or decrease in interest rates.
The following table represents the Corporation's projected change in NPV for the
various rate shock levels as of December 31, 1998.
----------------------- Net Portfolio Value --------------------
Change Dollar Dollar Percentage
in Rates Amount Change Change
+ 200 $ 26,144 $ (21,086) (44.65) %
+ 100 36,423 (10,807) (22.88)
Base 47,230 - -
- 100 56,302 9,072 19.21
- 200 65,016 17,786 37.66
The above table indicates that as of December 31, 1998, the Corporation's
estimated NPV would be expected to decrease in the event of sudden and sustained
increases in prevailing interest rates. Conversely, in the event of sudden and
sustained decreases in prevailing interest rates, the Corporation's estimated
NPV would be expected to increase. As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation's
estimated changes in NPV were within the approved guidelines established by the
Board of Directors.
<PAGE>13.25
Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are
based on a number of assumptions, including relative levels of market interest
rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be relied upon
as indicative of actual results. These computations do not contemplate any
actions management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. The
NPV calculation is based on the net present value of discounted cash flows
utilizing certain prepayment assumptions and market interest rates.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of computing the estimated NPV.
Actual results may differ from that information presented in the table above
should market conditions vary from the assumptions used in preparation of the
table information. If interest rates remain or decrease below current levels,
the proportion of adjustable rate loans in the loan portfolio could decrease in
future periods due to refinancing activity. Also, in the event of an interest
rate change, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely be different
from those assumed in the table. Lastly, the ability of many borrowers to repay
their adjustable rate debt may decline during a rising interest rate
environment.
Used in conjunction with the NPV analysis is the interest rate sensitivity gap
analysis. This analysis monitors the relationship between the maturity and
repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities while
maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Interest rate sensitivity gap is
defined as the difference between the amount of maturing or repricing of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities within specific and
defined time frames. A positive gap occurs when the amount of interest rate
sensitive assets exceed the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities.
Conversely, a gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate
sensitive liabilities exceed the interest rate sensitive assets. Generally,
during a time of rising interest rates, a negative gap would adversely affect
net interest income, while a positive gap would enhance net interest income. On
the other hand, during a time period of falling interest rates, a negative gap
would increase net interest income, while a positive gap would decrease net
interest income. It is the ALCO's responsibility to maintain a reasonable
balance between the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and earnings.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
The Corporation and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital guidelines as
required by federal and state banking agencies. These guidelines define the
various components of core capital and assign risk weights to various categories
of assets.
Tier 1 capital consists of shareholders' equity less goodwill and core deposit
intangibles, as defined by bank regulators. The definition of Tier 2 capital
includes the amount of allowance for loan losses which does not exceed 1.25% of
gross risk weighted assets. Total capital is the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2
capital.
The minimum requirements under the capital guidelines are a 4.00% leverage ratio
(Tier 1 capital divided by average assets less intangible assets and unrealized
gains/losses), a 4.00% Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio (Tier 1 capital divided
by risk-weighted assets), and a 8.00% total capital ratio (Tier 1 capital plus
Tier 2 capital divided by risk-weighted assets).
<PAGE>13.26
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA)
required federal regulatory agencies to define capital tiers. These tiers are:
well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not
used to represent overall financial condition. Under these regulations, a
"well-capitalized" institution must achieve a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of
at least 6.00%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.00%, and a
leverage ratio of at least 5.00% and not be under a capital directive order.
Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. If an
institution is only adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to
accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions, asset
growth, and expansion is limited, in addition to the institution being required
to submit a capital restoration plan.
Management believes the Corporation and Bank met all the capital requirements as
of December 31, 1998, and the Bank was well-capitalized under the guidelines
established by the banking regulators. To be well-capitalized, the Bank must
maintain the prompt corrective action capital guidelines described above.
Consolidated capital amounts and ratios are presented in Table 15 Capital
Ratios. Bank capital levels are materially consistent with the consolidated
ratios.
Exclusive of the effect of the unrealized gains/losses on securities component,
which is driven by the interest rate environment, the Corporation's
shareholders' equity increased $4,097,000, or 10.6% in 1998 compared to the
$3,602,000, or 10.3% increase posted in 1997. The amount of dividends paid by
the Corporation increased to $1,341,000, or 11.7% above the prior year amount.
The increased dollar dividend payout, in addition to the continued stock
dividends declared in the past few years, reflect management's effort to
increase the value and return of each shareholder's investment in the
Corporation.
At December 31, 1998, management was not aware of any current recommendations by
banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would
have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on the Corporation's
consolidated liquidity, capital resources or operations.

As discussed earlier and in Note 18, the Bank expects to acquire three branches
in March, 1999. Because this acquisition will reduce consolidated and bank-only
capital levels, the Corporation plans to borrow approximately $12 - $14 million
to contribute to the Bank to maintain the Bank's well-capitalized status. While
management expects the Bank to remain well-capitalized following the
consummation of this transaction, the Corporation's capital levels may
temporarily drop below the minimum required level for capital adequacy purposes.
Management will monitor the Corporation's consolidated capital level and
anticipates the minimum required level for capital adequacy purposes to be met
by the Corporation prior to December 31, 1999. The Federal Reserve Bank
considers holding company capital adequacy in connection with any application
activity which requires their approval. Further, to the extent the Corporation's
capital levels fall below the well-capitalized category as anticipated, the use
of expedited Federal Reserve Bank procedures in any application activity which
requires their approval will not be available to the Corporation until it once
again becomes well-capitalized. The statements in this paragraph relating to
capital levels of the Corporation and Bank are forward-looking statements which
may or may not be accurate due to the impossibility of predicting future
economic and business events, including the ability of the Corporation to raise
additional capital, if needed, as well as other factors that are beyond the
control of the Corporation.
<PAGE>13.28
INFLATION
For a financial institution, effects of price changes and inflation vary
considerably from an industrial organization. Changes in the prices of goods and
services are the primary determinant of an industrial company's profit, whereas
changes in interest rates have a major impact on a financial institution's
profitability. Inflation affects the growth of total assets, but it is difficult
to assess its impact because neither timing nor the magnitude of the changes in
the consumer price index directly coincide with changes in interest rates.
During periods of high inflation there are normally corresponding increases in
the money supply. During such times, financial institutions often experience
above average growth in loans and deposits. Also, general increases in the price
of goods and services will result in increased operation expenses. Over the last
few years the inflation rate has been relatively low, and its impact on the
balance sheets and increased levels of income and expense has been nominal.
YEAR 2000
The Corporation's Board of Directors and management is aware of the possible
consequences the Y2K may pose with regard to the computer systems utilized to
conduct business on a daily basis. A "Year 2000 Committee", which reports
monthly to the Board of Directors, has prepared a detailed plan to address this
issue. In addition to developing contingency plans, the Corporation has
conducted internal employee training, as well as customer awareness seminars in
an effort to not only communicate the Y2K issue, but also to inform these
individuals of the Corporation's approach to address this issue. Testing of the
Corporation's core processing systems began early in the third quarter of 1998
and is scheduled to be completed no later than the end of the first quarter of
1999.
Because the Y2K issue could affect the ability of the Corporation's customers to
conduct their business and operations in a timely and effective manner, the
result could adversely impact the Corporation. The Corporation's ability to
process loan and deposit transactions could be affected, which could limit
sources of revenues and funding from customers, as well as impact the quality of
the loan portfolio. In order to assess the potential credit risk in the
Corporation's loan portfolio, a comprehensive review of all commercial loan
customers whose aggregate borrowings were $200,000 or greater was performed. No
borrowers were classified as having a high credit risk.
While management does not believe the necessary steps involved to resolve this
issue will significantly impair the organization's ability to operate and
conduct business in a normal fashion, the Corporation does estimate the total
cost to address this issue to be approximately $1.6 million. Approximately
one-half of the estimated $1.6 million has been incurred through 1998. The
expenditures related to this issue are comprised primarily of system upgrades,
consisting both of hardware and software, in addition to dedicated personnel
costs.
The above discussion of Y2K issues includes numerous forward-looking statements
reflecting management's current assessment and estimates with respect to the
Corporation's Y2K compliance efforts and the impact of Y2K issues on the
Corporation's business and operations. Various factors could cause actual
results to differ materially from those contemplated by such assessment,
estimates and forward-looking statements, including many factors that are beyond
the control of the Corporation. These factors included, but are not limited to,
representations by vendors and customers, technological advancements, economic
conditions, and competitive considerations.

Lafayette Bancorporation
Lafayette, Indiana
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lafayette
Bancorporation as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related consolidated
statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lafayette
Bancorporation as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

LAFAYETTE BANCORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Lafayette Bancorporation (Corporation) and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lafayette Bank and Trust Company (Bank), after
elimination of significant intercompany transactions and accounts.
The Corporation provides financial services to its customers, primarily
commercial and retail banking and trust services, with operations conducted
through its main office and 12 branches located in Tippecanoe and White Counties
in Indiana. The majority of the Corporation's revenue is derived from commercial
and retail business lending activities and investments. Although the overall
loan portfolio is diversified, the economy of Tippecanoe County is heavily
dependent on Purdue University, one of the area's largest employers, and the
economy of White County is heavily dependent on the agricultural industry. The
majority of the Bank's loans are secured by specific items of collateral
including business assets, real property and consumer assets.
Use of Estimates: Management must make estimates and assumptions in preparing
financial statements that affect the amounts reported therein and the
disclosures provided. These estimates and assumptions may change in the future
and future results could differ. Estimates that are more susceptible to change
in the near term include the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of
certain securities and other financial instruments, and the determination and
carrying value of impaired loans.
Securities: Securities are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at
amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them
to maturity. Securities are classified as available-for-sale when they might be
sold before maturity. Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value,
with unrealized gains or losses included in other comprehensive income.
Realized gains or losses are determined based on the amortized cost of the
specific security sold. Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization
of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.
Loans Held for Sale: The Bank sells certain fixed-rate first mortgage loans in
the secondary market on a servicing-released basis. Mortgage loans held for sale
are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value determined on an
aggregate basis.
<PAGE>13.38
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Loans: Interest on real estate, commercial and most installment loans is accrued
over the term of the loans based on the principal outstanding. The recognition
of interest income is discontinued when, in management's judgment, the interest
will not be collectible in the normal course of business. Loans are evaluated
for non-accrual when payments are past due over 90 days. The Bank defers loan
fees, net of certain direct loan origination costs. The net amount deferred is
reported in the balance sheet as part of loans and is recognized into interest
income over the term of the loan using a method which approximates a
level-yield.
The carrying values of impaired loans are periodically adjusted to reflect cash
payments, revised estimates of future cash flows, and increases in the present
value of expected cash flows due to the passage of time. Cash payments
representing interest income are reported as such. Other cash payments are
reported as reductions in carrying value, while increases or decreases due to
changes in estimates of future payments and due to the passage of time are
reported as bad debt expense, if reductions, or otherwise as interest income.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation
allowance, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by
charge-offs less recoveries. Management estimates the allowance balance required
based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in 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.
Loan impairment is recognized if a loan's full principal or interest payments
are not expected to be received. Loans considered to be impaired are reduced to
the present value of expected future cash flows using the loans' existing rate
or to the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the
collateral, by allocating a portion of the allowance for loan losses to such
loans. Smaller-balance homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total.
Such loans include residential real estate loans secured by one to four family
residences and installment loans to individuals for household, family and other
personal expenditures.
Commercial and agricultural loans are evaluated individually for impairment.
Premises, Furniture and Equipment: Premises, furniture and equipment are stated
at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recognized over
the estimated useful lives of the assets, principally on the straight-line
method.
<PAGE>13.39
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Foreclosed Assets: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are
initially recorded at fair value when acquired, establishing a new cost basis.
If fair value declines, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs
after acquisition are expensed.
Long-term Assets: These assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate
their carrying amounts may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash
flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at discounted amounts.
Repurchase Agreements: Substantially all repurchase agreement liabilities
represent amounts advanced by various customers. Securities are pledged to cover
these liabilities, which are not covered by federal deposit insurance. The Bank
retains possession of and control over pledged securities.
Intangibles: Goodwill and core deposit intangibles are amortized on the
straight-line method over 15 years and are included in other assets. Intangibles
are assessed for impairment based on estimated undiscounted cash flows, and
written down if necessary.
Stock Compensation: Expense for employee compensation under stock option plans
is based on Opinion 25, with expense reported only if options are granted below
market price at grant date. Pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per
share are provided as if the fair value method of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 123 were used for stock-based compensation.
Income Taxes: Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined at each balance
sheet date. They are measured by applying enacted tax laws to future taxable
income or expense resulting from differences in the financial statement and tax
basis of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established when
necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus
the change during the period on deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per share is net income divided by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common
shares issuable under stock options. Earnings and dividends per share are
restated for all stock splits and dividends through the date of issue of the
financial statements.
Statement of Cash Flows: Cash and cash equivalents are defined to include cash
on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold. The Corporation reports
net cash flows for customer loan transactions, deposit transactions, and
short-term borrowings.
<PAGE>13.40
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include credit instruments, such as
commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit, issued to meet customer
financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to
loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are
estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully
disclosed separately. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and
other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items.
Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the
estimates.
Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions
arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the
likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably
estimated. Management does not believe there are now such matters that will have
a material effect on the financial statements.
Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other
comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and
losses on securities available for sale, which are also recognized as separate
components of equity. The accounting standard that requires reporting
comprehensive income first applies for 1998, with prior information restated to
be comparable.
Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital
levels and may limit the dividends paid by the bank to the holding company or by
the holding company to shareholders.
New Accounting Pronouncements: Beginning January 1, 2000, a new accounting
standard will require all derivatives to be recorded at fair value. Unless
designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be recorded in the
income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will generally be recorded
by offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the hedged item, even if the
fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise recorded. This is not expected to
have a material effect, but the effect will depend on derivative holdings when
this standard applies.
Industry Segments: Internal financial information is primarily reported and
aggregated in three lines of business, banking, mortgage banking and trust
services.

NOTE 9 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (Continued)
The Bank maintains a retirement savings plan covering substantially all
employees. The plan requires employees to complete 1 year of service and be 21
years of age before entering the plan. Employee contributions are limited to a
maximum of 15% of their salary. The plan allows for a matching percentage
determined annually by the Board of Directors of the first 4% of employee salary
contributions and an annual discretionary contribution. Participants are fully
vested in salary deferral contributions and employer matching contributions.
Total 401(k) contributions charged to expense were $116, $106 and $73 for 1998,
1997 and 1996.
The Bank maintains a deferred compensation plan for the benefit of certain
directors. Under the plan, the Bank agrees, in return for the directors
deferring the receipt of a portion of their current compensation, to pay a
retirement benefit computed as the amount of the compensation deferred plus
accrued interest at a variable rate. Accrued benefits payable totaled $858 and
$683 at December 31, 1998 and 1997. Deferred compensation expense was $90, $90
and $84 for 1998, 1997 and 1996. In conjunction with the plan formation, the
Bank purchased life insurance on the directors. The cash surrender value of that
insurance is carried as an other asset on the consolidated balance sheet, and
was approximately $3,522 and $3,367 at December 31, 1998 and 1997.
NOTE 10 - POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Bank sponsors a postretirement benefit plan which provides defined medical
benefits. Retirees contribute an amount equal to their individual applicable
premium to provide the coverage, less 30%, which is paid monthly by the Bank.
Retirees must pay 100% of medical premiums for all dependent coverage. The plan
is not funded and has no assets.

For measurement purposes, the annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of
covered health care benefits assumed was 11.5% for 1998, 1997 and 1996, with the
rate assumed to gradually decrease to 5.5% effective January 1, 2002. The health
care cost trend is a significant assumption. However, either an increase or
decrease in the assumed health care cost trend rates by 1% in each year would
affect the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 1998
and the aggregate service and interest cost components of net periodic
postretirement benefit cost for the year then ended by amounts not considered to
be material.
The weighted average discount rate used in determining the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 7% for 1998, 1997 and
1996.

NOTE 11 - STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AND STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Corporation maintains an Officers' Stock Appreciation Rights Plan for
granting rights to certain officers, under which all available rights have been
granted. Upon exercise of a stock appreciation right, the holder may receive
cash equal to the excess of the fair market value of common stock at the date of
exercise over the option price. Stock appreciation rights are vested at 20% per
year and must be exercised within 10 years of grant. The plan expires May, 2002.
Granted rights outstanding were fully-vested and consisted of 44,094 at $6.05
per share for 1998, and 45,085 at $6.65 per share for 1997, 69,166 at $7.32 per
share for 1996. In 1998, prior to the stock dividend, 5,000 rights were
exercised at $39 per share. Compensation expense charged to operations in 1998,
1997 and 1996 was $450, $657 and $112 and is based on an increase in market
value. The liability at December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $1,420 and $1,132.
The Corporation has established two nonqualified stock option plans to provide
stock options to directors and key members of management. One plan was adopted
in 1995 ("1995 Plan") and the other in 1998 ("1998 Plan"). The total number of
shares of common stock available for grant to directors and management are shown
below:

Totals 62,700 127,776 190,476
============ ============ =============
</TABLE>
All shares for both plans were available for grant at a price equal to the
market price of the stock at the date of grant.
Under the 1995 Plan, options granted to directors at the effective date are
exercisable any time after the date of grant, and options granted to directors
elected after the effective date are exercisable after two years. Under the 1998
Plan, options granted to directors at the effective date and directors elected
after the effective date are exercisable after two years. Options granted to
management under both plans become 20% exercisable after one year and 20% each
subsequent year. Both plans are effective for five years and options must be
exercised within ten years from the date of grant.
A summary of the Corporation's stock option activity, and related information
for the years ended December 31, follows (adjusted for stock dividends):

Options outstanding at December 31, 1998 have a weighted average remaining life
of 8.2 years, with exercise prices ranging from $17.15 to $34.55.
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share has been
determined as if the Corporation had accounted for its stock options under the
fair value method. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of
grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted
average assumptions for the years 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively: risk-free
interest rates of 5.6%, 6.6% and 6.5%; dividend yields of 2%; volatility factors
of the expected market price of the Corporation's common stock of .16, .16 and
.05, and a weighted average expected life of the options of five years for
management options and two years for directors' options.
NOTE 11 - STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AND STOCK OPTION PLAN (Continued)
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options
is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The Corporation's pro

NOTE 14 - CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Corporation and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by federal and state 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 judgements by regulators. Failure to meet capital
requirements can initiate regulatory action.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Corporation and Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set
forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the
regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as
defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes the Corporation and
Bank meet all applicable capital adequacy requirements as of December 31, 1998.
Prompt corrective action regulations applicable to the Bank provide five
classifications: well- capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these
terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately
capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If
undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and
expansion, and capital restoration plans are required.
As of December 31, 1998, the Bank was categorized as well-capitalized under the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as
well-capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1
risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table.
<PAGE>13.54
The Corporation's actual consolidated capital amounts and ratios are presented
in the following table (in millions). The Bank's actual capital amounts and
ratios are not materially different from the consolidated amounts below.

</TABLE>
The Bank is also subject to state regulations restricting the amount of
dividends payable to the Corporation. At December 31, 1998, the Bank had $7,331
of retained earnings available for dividends under these regulations.
As discussed in Note 18, the Bank expects to acquire three branches in March
1999. The acquisition will reduce consolidated capital levels. Management will
monitor consolidated capital levels and anticipates sufficient capital will be
maintained by December 31, 1999. The Corporation expects to borrow and
contribute capital to the Bank, and the Bank is expected to remain
well-capitalized.
<PAGE>13.55
NOTE 15 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Bank leases branch facilities under operating leases expiring in various
years through 2007. Expense for leased premises was $219, $188, and $181 for
1998, 1997 and 1996.
Future minimum lease payments are as follows:
1999 $ 230
2000 213
2001 149
2002 142
2003 117
2004 through 2007 232

Total $ 1,083
============
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has loans, commitments and
contingent liabilities, such as guarantees and commitments to extend credit,
which are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. The Bank's exposure
to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the
financial instrument for commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit
is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the
same credit policy to make such commitments as it uses for on-balance sheet
items.
At December 31, off-balance sheet financial instruments whose contract amount
represents credit risk are summarized as follows:
1998 1997
---- ----
Unused lines of credit $ 43,239 $ 33,686
Commitments to make loans 14,976 4,964
Standby letters of credit 2,759 2,189
Commercial letters of credit 59 78
Since many commitments to make loans expire without being used, the amount does
not necessarily represent future cash commitments. Collateral obtained upon
exercise of the commitment is determined using management's credit evaluation of
the borrower, and may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, land and
other items. These commitments are generally variable rate or carry a term of
one year or less.
The cash balance required to be maintained on hand or on deposit with the
Federal Reserve was $5,955 and $4,931 at December 31, 1998 and 1997. These
reserves do not earn interest.

Accrued interest payable (1,471) (1,471) (1,332) (1,332)
</TABLE>
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value. The carrying amount is considered to estimate fair value for cash and
short-term instruments, demand deposits, short-term borrowings, accrued
interest, and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully.
Securities fair values are based on quoted market prices or, if no quotes are
available, on the rate and term of the security and on information about the
issuer. For loans held for sale, the fair value of loans held for sale is based
on quoted market prices. For commercial, real estate, consumer, and other loans,
fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates
at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings
and for the same remaining maturities. Federal Home Loan Bank stock is
restricted in nature and is not actively traded on a secondary market and the
carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of
fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently
offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. For long-term debt, fair
value is estimated using rates currently available to the Corporation for debt
with similar terms and remaining maturities. The estimated fair value for
off-balance sheet loan commitments approximates carrying value and are not
considered significant to this presentation.

NOTE 18 - BRANCH ACQUISITION
In October 1998, the Bank signed a definitive agreement to acquire three
branches located in DeMotte, Remington, and Rensselaer, Indiana. Under the terms

NOTE 20 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Corporation's operations include three primary segments: banking, mortgage
banking, and trust. Through its banking subsidiary's thirteen locations in
Tippecanoe and White Counties, the Corporation provides traditional community
banking services, such as accepting deposits and making commercial, residential
and consumer loans. Mortgage banking activities include the origination of
residential mortgage loans for sale on a servicing released basis to various
investors. The Corporation's trust department provides both personal and
corporate trust services.
The Corporation's three reportable segments are determined by the products and
services offered. Loans, investments and deposits comprise the primary revenues
and expenses of the banking operation, net gains on loans sold account for the
revenues in the mortgage banking segment, and trust administration fees provide
the primary revenues in the trust department.
The following segment financial information has been derived from the internal
profitability reporting system utilized by management to monitor and manage the
financial performance of the Corporation. The accounting policies of the three
segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant
accounting policies. The Corporation evaluates segment performance based on
profit or loss before income taxes. The evaluation process for the mortgage
banking and trust segments include only direct expenses, while certain indirect
expenses, including goodwill, are absorbed by the banking operation.
