Item 1.           Description of Business

General

         The Company.  First Robinson Financial  Corporation (the "Company") was
incorporated  under  the laws of the State of  Delaware  in March  1997,  at the
direction  of the  Board  of  Directors  of  First  Robinson  Savings  and  Loan
Association (the "Association"),  the predecessor  institution to First Robinson
Savings Bank, National  Association (the "Bank") for the purpose of serving as a
holding  company of the Bank. The Company has no  significant  assets other than
the  outstanding  capital stock of the Bank.  Unless  otherwise  indicated,  all
activities discussed below are of the Bank.

         The  Bank.  The Bank is a  national  bank,  the  deposits  of which are
federally  insured  and  backed  by the  full  faith  and  credit  of  the  U.S.
Government. The Bank is a community-oriented  financial institution and seeks to
serve the financial  needs of the  residents and  businesses in its market area.
The  principal  business of the Bank has  historically  consisted of  attracting
retail  deposits from the general public and investing  those funds in primarily
one-to  four-family  residential  real  estate  loans and,  to a lesser  extent,
consumer  loans,  commercial and  agricultural  real estate loans and commercial
business and agricultural finance loans. At March 31, 2000, substantially all of
the Bank's real estate mortgage loans, were secured by properties located in the
Bank's market area.  The Bank also invests in investment  and equity  securities
and mortgage-backed securities, and other permissible investments.

         The Bank currently  offers a variety of deposit  accounts having a wide
range of interest rates and terms. The Bank's deposits include passbook savings,
NOW accounts,  Super NOW accounts,  certificate accounts, IRA accounts,  limited
accounts and non-interest bearing accounts. The Bank generally solicits deposits
in its primary market area. The Bank does not accept any brokered deposits.

         The Bank's  revenues  are derived  principally  from  interest  income,
including   primarily   interest   on  loans,   deposits   in  other  banks  and
mortgage-backed securities and other investments.

Market Area

         The Bank primarily serves Crawford County, Illinois. The Bank currently
has four  offices,  consisting  of three full service  offices and one drive-up,
located in Robinson, Palestine and Oblong, Illinois.

         Robinson,  Palestine  and  Oblong,  Illinois  are  located in  Crawford
County,  Illinois,  approximately  150 miles east of St. Louis,  Missouri and 35
miles northwest of Vincennes, Indiana. The major employers in the Bank's primary
market area include:  Marathon Oil Company,  Hershey  Chocolate,  USA,  Robinson
Correctional Facility, Dana Corporation,  Fair Rite Products,  Crawford Memorial
Hospital and E.H. Baare Corporation.

         The Bank and  therefore the Company,  is dependent  upon the economy of
its market share for continued success, since the vast majority of its loans are
located  in the  Bank's  market  area.  See  Note 18 of  Notes  To  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Lending Activities

         General.  The Bank's loan portfolio consists primarily of conventional,
first mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family  residences and, to a lesser
extent,   consumer  loans,   commercial  and  agricultural  real  estate  loans,
commercial business and agricultural  finance loans and multi-family real estate
and  construction  loans. At March 31, 2000, the Bank's gross loans  outstanding
totaled $65.2 million,  of which $34.1 million or 52.31% were one-to four-family
residential   mortgage  loans.  Of  the  one-  to  four-family   mortgage  loans
outstanding  at that  date,  26.47%  were  fixed-rate  loans,  and  73.53%  were
adjustable-rate loans. At that same date, consumer loans totaled $6.2 million or
9.53%  of the  Bank's  total  loan  portfolio.  Also at that  date,  the  Bank's
commercial and agricultural real estate loans totaled $12.7 million or 19.55% of
the Bank's total loan portfolio of which 93.76% were  adjustable-rate  loans. At
March 31, 2000,  commercial business and agricultural finance loans totaled $9.9
million  or 15.17% of the Bank's  total loan  portfolio,  of which  24.95%  were
fixed-rate  loans  and  75.05%   adjustable-rate   loans.  At  that  same  date,
multi-family real estate and construction loans totaled $2.2 million or 3.44% of
the Bank's  total  loan  portfolio.  See Notes 1 and 4 of Notes To  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

         The  Bank  also  invests  in  mortgage-backed  securities,   government
securities,  obligations  of states or  political  subdivisions  and other  debt
securities. At March 31, 2000,  mortgage-backed securities totaled $11.0 million
or  66.77%  of  the  Bank's  total  investment  and  mortgage-backed  securities
portfolio,  government  securities  and  obligations  of  states  and  political
subdivisions  and other debt securities  totaled $5.5 million,  or 33.23% of the
Bank's total investment and mortgage-backed securities portfolio.

         The Bank's  loans-to-one  borrower  limit is  generally  limited to the
greater of 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus or $500,000. See "Regulation --
Federal  Regulation of National  Banks." At March 31, 2000,  the maximum  amount
which the Bank could have lent  under  this  limit to any one  borrower  and the
borrower's related entities was approximately  $1.4 million.  At March 31, 2000,
the Bank had no loans or groups of loans to related  borrowers with  outstanding
balances in excess of this amount.

         The Bank's five largest lending relationships at March 31, 2000 were as
follows:  (i) $2.9 million in loans to a heavy  equipment  contractor,  of which
$1.7  million  was  participated  to  other  lenders,  secured  by real  estate,
equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable as well as certificates of deposit
and personal guarantees; (ii) $1.0 million in loans to a grain farming operation
and  grain  elevator  business,  of which  $336,000  was  participated  to other

in loans to a grain farming  operation and concrete  business  secured by crops,

personal guarantees; (v) $739,000 in loans to a grain farming operation of which
$260,000  was  participated  to other  lenders,  secured  by  crops,  equipment,
inventory,  and  personal  guarantees.  At March 31,  2000,  all of these  loans
totaling $6.3 million in the aggregate, of which $2.3 million was participated

                                        4

         Underwriting  Standards.  All of the  Bank's  lending is subject to its
written  underwriting  standards and loan origination  procedures.  Decisions on
loan  applications  are  made on the  basis of  detailed  applications  and,  if
applicable,  property valuations.  Properties securing real estate loans made by
the Bank are generally appraised by Board approved  independent  appraisers.  In
the loan approval process, the Bank assesses the borrower's ability to repay the
loan, the adequacy of the proposed  security,  the  employment  stability of the
borrower and the credit-worthiness of the borrower.

         The Bank  requires  evidence of  marketable  title and lien position or
appropriate title insurance on all loans secured by real property. The Bank also
requires fire and extended coverage casualty insurance in amounts at least equal
to the lesser of the principal  amount of the loan or the value of  improvements
on the  property,  depending  on the  type  of  loan.  As  required  by  federal
regulations,  the Bank also  requires  flood  insurance  to protect the property
securing its interest if such property is located in a designated flood area.

         Management  reserves  the right to change the amount or type of lending
in which it engages to adjust to market or other factors.

         One- to- Four-Family  Residential  Mortgage  Lending.  Residential loan
originations  are  generated  by  the  Bank's  marketing  efforts,  its  present
customers,   walk-in   customers,   and  referrals  from  real  estate  brokers.
Historically,  the  Bank  has  focused  its  lending  efforts  primarily  on the
origination of loans secured by one- to four-family residential mortgages in its
market  area.  At March 31,  2000,  the Bank's one- to  four-family  residential
mortgage  loans  totaled  $34.1  million,  or 52.31%,  of the Bank's  gross loan
portfolio of which $150,000 was non-performing at that date.

         The Bank offers both adjustable and fixed rate mortgage loans.  For the
year ended March 31,  2000,  the Bank  originated  $17.9  million of real estate
loans,  of which $12.4 million were secured by one- to  four-family  residential
real estate,  and $5.2 million was secured by  commercial or  agricultural  real
estate and $281,000 secured by multifamily  dwellings.  Substantially all of the
Bank's one- to  four-family  residential  mortgage  originations  are secured by
properties located in its market area.

         The Bank offers  adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans at rates and on terms
determined in accordance with market and competitive factors. The Bank currently
originates  adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans with a term of up to 30 years.  The
Bank generally offers from one to five year adjustable-rate  mortgage loans with
a stated interest rate margin  generally over the one-year  Treasury Bill Index,
which adjusts from one to ten year terms. Increases or decreases in the interest
rate of the  Bank's  adjustable-rate  loans is  generally  limited  to 200 basis
points at any adjustment date and 600 basis points over the life of the loan. As
a  consequence  of using caps,  the interest  rates on these loans may not be as
rate sensitive as are the Bank's  liabilities.  The Bank qualifies borrowers for
adjustable-rate  loans  based on the  initial  interest  rate of the loan.  As a
result,  the risk of default  on these  loans may  increase  as  interest  rates
increase.  See "Asset Quality -- Non-Performing  Assets." At March 31, 2000, the
total balance of one-to four-family  adjustable-rate  loans was $25.1 million or
38.47% of the Bank's gross loan portfolio.  See "-- Originations,  Purchases and
Sales of Loans."

         The Bank offers and retains fixed-rate mortgage loans with a term of up
to 30  years.  At March  31,  2000,  the total  balance  of one- to  four-family
fixed-rate  loans was $9.0 million or 13.84% of the Bank's gross loan portfolio.
The Bank also offers U.S.  Department of Agriculture  ("USDA")  Guaranteed Rural
Housing  Loans to  first-time  home buyers with minimal to no down  payments and
that meet certain income  limitations.  These loans are 30-year fixed rate loans
with a 90%  guarantee  from USDA.  At March 31, 2000,  the total balance of USDA
Guaranteed  Rural  Housing  Loans was $2.2  million or 3.46% of the Bank's gross
loan portfolio. See "-- Originations, Purchases and Sales of Loans."

         Currently,  the Bank  will  generally  lend up to 80% of the  appraised
value of the security  property on owner  occupied  one- to  four-family  loans.
Residential loans do not include prepayment penalties,  are non-assumable (other
than  government-insured  or  guaranteed  loans),  and do not  produce  negative
amortization.  Real estate loans  originated by the Bank contain a "due on sale"
clause allowing the Bank to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable
upon the sale of the security  property.  The Bank does utilize private mortgage
insurance.

         The  loans   currently   originated  by  the  Bank  are  not  typically
underwritten  and  documented  pursuant to the  guidelines  of the FHLMC.  Under
current policy, the Bank originates these loans for portfolio. Effective January
1, 1999,  the Bank entered into an  agreement  with FHLB to originate  loans for
them.  This program  offers 15 to 30 year fixed rate  mortgages.  The Bank sells
100% of the principal and receives a fee. The Bank also receives 25 basis points
servicing  per  month.  A portion  of the fee is  retained  by FHLB to cover any
contingent  debt incurred by the Bank if these loans are written off. During the
year ended March 31, 2000, the Bank  originated  loans of $2.4 million.  See "--
Originations,  Purchases  and Sales of Loans  and --  Investment  Activities  --
Mortgage-backed Securities."

         Consumer Lending. The Bank offers secured and unsecured consumer loans.
Secured  loans may be  collateralized  by a variety  of asset  types,  including
automobiles,   mobile  homes  and  deposits.   The  Bank  currently   originates
substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market area. At March 31,
2000, the Bank's consumer loan portfolio  totaled $6.2 million,  or 9.53% of its
gross loan portfolio, of which 96.26% were fixed rate loans.

         A significant  component of the Bank's consumer loan portfolio consists
of new and used automobile  loans.  These loans generally have terms that do not
exceed five years. Generally, loans on vehicles are made in amounts up to 80% of
the sales price.  At March 31, 2000,  the Bank's  automobile  loans totaled $4.1
million or 6.21% of the Bank's gross loan portfolio. These loans were originated
predominately on a direct basis.

         Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral,
length of  contract  and  creditworthiness  of the  borrower.  The  underwriting
standards  employed by the Bank for consumer  loans  include an  application,  a
determination  of  the  applicant's  payment  history  on  other  debts  and  an
assessment of ability to meet existing  obligations and payments on the proposed
loan. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the
underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the security, if
any, in relation to the proposed loan amount.


                                        8

         Consumer  loans may  entail  greater  credit  risk than do  residential
mortgage  loans,  particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured
or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles.  Further, any
repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate
source of repayment of the  outstanding  loan balance as a result of the greater
likelihood  of  damage,  loss  or  depreciation.   In  addition,  consumer  loan
collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability,  and
thus  are  more  likely  to  be  affected  by  adverse  personal  circumstances.
Furthermore,  the  application  of various  federal  and state  laws,  including
bankruptcy and  insolvency  laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on
such  loans.  At March  31,  2000,  $2,000 of the  Bank's  consumer  loans  were
non-performing.  There can be no assurances that additional  delinquencies  will
not occur in the future.

         Commercial  and  Agricultural  Real  Estate  Lending.   The  Bank  also
originates  commercial  and  agricultural  real estate loans.  At March 31, 2000
approximately $12.7 million,  or 19.55% of the Bank's gross loan portfolio,  was
comprised of commercial and agricultural real estate loans of which $50,000 were
non-performing at that date. Of this amount,  approximately $795,000 or 6.24% of
these loans were fixed-rate  commercial and  agricultural  real estate loans and
approximately  $11.9 million or 93.76% were  adjustable-rate  loans. The largest
commercial  real estate loan was for  $718,000.  At March 31, 2000 this borrower
had only a $33,000 additional loan outstanding to the Bank.

         The Bank will  generally  lend up to 80% of the value of the collateral
securing the loan with  varying  maturities  up to 20 years for loans  generally
with  repricing  of daily to 5 years.  In  underwriting  these  loans,  the Bank
currently  analyzes the  financial  condition of the  borrower,  the  borrower's
credit  history,  and  the  reliability  and  predictability  of the  cash  flow
generated by the business.  The Bank requires  personal  guaranties of corporate
borrowers.  Appraisals on properties  securing  commercial and agricultural real
estate loans originated by the Bank are performed by independent appraisers. The
Bank also offers small business loans, which are generally  guaranteed up to 90%
by various governmental agencies. The Bank has, in the past, sold the guaranteed
portion  of  such  loans  and  retained  the  uninsured  portion  as well as the
servicing.

         Commercial  and  agricultural  real estate  loans  generally  present a
higher level of risk than loans secured by one- to four-family residences.  This
greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal
in a limited  number of loans and  borrowers,  the  effect of  general  economic
conditions on income and the increased  difficulty of evaluating  and monitoring
these types of loans. Furthermore,  the repayment of loans secured by commercial
and  agricultural  real  estate  is  typically  dependent  upon  the  successful
operation  of the  business.  If the cash flow from the project is reduced  (for
example, if leases are not obtained or renewed, or a bankruptcy court modifies a
lease term, or a major tenant is unable to fulfill its lease  obligations),  the
borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired.

         Commercial and Agricultural  Business Lending. The Bank also originates
commercial and agricultural business loans. At March 31, 2000 approximately $9.9
million,  or 15.17%  of the  Bank's  gross  loan  portfolio,  was  comprised  of
commercial and agricultural business loans of which $862,000 were non-performing
at that date.  Of the $9.9  million,  approximately  $2.5 million or 24.95% were
fixed rate loans and approximately  $7.4 million or 75.05% were  adjustable-rate
loans.

                                        9

<PAGE>



The largest commercial business loan was to a heavy equipment contractor who had
loans totaling $2.9 million.  Of this amount,  $1.7 million was  participated to
other lenders.

         Unlike  residential  mortgage  loans,  which  generally are made on the
basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from his or her employment and
other income and which are secured by real property whose value tends to be more
easily  ascertainable,   commercial  business  and  agricultural  finance  loans
typically are made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from
the cash flow of the borrower's business. As a result, the availability of funds
for the repayment of commercial  business and agricultural  finance loans may be
substantially  dependent on the success of the business itself (which,  in turn,
is likely to be dependent  upon the general  economic  environment).  The Bank's
commercial  business  and  agricultural  finance  loans are  usually  secured by
business or personal  assets.  However,  the  collateral  securing the loans may
depreciate  over time,  may be difficult to appraise and may  fluctuate in value
based on the success of the business.  At March 31, 2000,  $68,000 of the Bank's
commercial business and agricultural finance loans were unsecured.

         The Bank's commercial business and agricultural  finance lending policy
includes  credit file  documentation  and analysis of the borrower's  character,
capacity  to  repay  the  loan,  the  adequacy  of the  borrower's  capital  and
collateral  as well as an  evaluation  of  conditions  affecting  the  borrower.
Analysis  of the  borrower's  past,  present  and  future  cash flows is also an
important aspect of the Bank's current credit analysis. Nonetheless, such loans,
are believed to carry higher credit risk than more traditional investments.

         Construction  Lending.  The Bank had $1.4 million in construction loans
for one- to four-family residences and commercial property or 2.18% of the total
loan  portfolio  at March 31,  2000.  A  construction  loan for  $446,000  for a
commercial property existed as of March 31, 2000.

         The Bank offers  construction loans to individuals for the construction
of one- to  four-family  residences  or  commercial  buildings.  Such  loans are
offered with fixed and adjustable-rates of interest.  Following the construction
period, these loans may become permanent loans.

         Construction  lending is generally considered to involve a higher level
of credit risk since the risk of loss on construction loans is dependent largely
upon the accuracy of the initial  estimate of the  individual  property's  value
upon  completion of the project and the estimated cost  (including  interest) of
the  project.  If the cost  estimate  proves to be  inaccurate,  the Bank may be
required  to advance  funds  beyond the amount  originally  committed  to permit
completion of the project.

         Multi-Family Lending. The Bank offers one- to five-year adjustable-rate
multi-family  loans for terms of up to 20 years. The Bank will generally lend up
to 80% of the value of the collateral  securing the loan. At March 31, 2000, the
Bank had $823,000 of multi-family real estate loans or 1.26% of the Bank's gross
loan portfolio was comprised of such loans of which none were  non-performing at
that date.

         Multi-family  lending is generally considered to involve a higher level
of credit risk than one- to four-family  residential lending.  This greater risk
in multi-family  lending is due to several factors,  including the concentration
of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effect of

                                       10

<PAGE>



general  economic  conditions on income  producing  properties and the increased
difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans.  Furthermore,  the
repayment of loans secured by  multi-family  real estate is typically  dependent
upon the successful  operation of the related real estate  project.  If the cash
flow from the project is reduced  (for  example,  if leases are not  obtained or
renewed,  or a  bankruptcy  court  modifies a lease term,  or a major  tenant is
unable to fulfill its lease  obligations),  the borrower's  ability to repay the
loan may be impaired.

Originations, Purchases and Sales of Loans

         Loan   originations   are  developed  from  continuing   business  with
depositors and borrowers, soliciting realtors, builders, walk-in customers.

         While the Bank  currently  originates  adjustable-rate  and  fixed-rate
loans,  its ability to originate loans to a certain extent is dependent upon the
relative  customer  demand for loans in its  market,  which is  affected  by the
interest rate  environment,  among other  factors.  For the year ended March 31,
2000, the Bank originated $15.3 million in fixed-rate loans and $15.7 million in
adjustable-rate loans.

         The Bank sold through  participations  with other lenders,  $835,000 in
commercial  business and agricultural  finance loans and $2.5 million in one- to
four-family  loans  through  market  programs for the year ended March 31, 2000.
Sales of these loans  generally are beneficial to the Bank since these sales may
produce future servicing income,  provide funds for additional lending and other
investments  and increase  liquidity.  The Bank does not sell loans  pursuant to
forward sales  commitments and,  therefore,  an increase in interest rates after
loan origination and prior to sale may adversely affect the Bank's income at the
time of sale.

Asset Quality

         Delinquencies.  When a borrower  fails to make a required  payment on a
loan,  the Bank attempts to cause the  delinquency to be cured by contacting the
borrower. In the case of loans secured by real estate, reminder notices are sent
to borrowers.  If payment is late,  appropriate  late charges are assessed and a
notice of late charges is sent to the  borrower.  If the loan is in excess of 60
days delinquent, the loan will generally be referred to the Bank's legal counsel
for collection.

         When a loan  becomes more than 90 days  delinquent  and  collection  of
principal and interest is considered  doubtful,  or is otherwise  impaired,  the
Bank will generally place the loan on non-accrual  status and previously accrued
interest income on the loan is charged against current income.

         Delinquent  consumer  loans are handled in a similar manner as to those
described  above;  however,  shorter  time frames for each step apply due to the
type of collateral  generally  associated  with such types of loans.  The Bank's
procedures  for  repossession  and sale of  consumer  collateral  are subject to
various requirements under applicable consumer protection laws.

         The following table sets forth the Bank's loan  delinquencies  by type,
by amount and by percentage of type at March 31, 2000.

         For the year ended March 31, 2000,  gross  interest  income which would
have been recorded had the  non-accruing  loans been current in accordance  with
their original terms amounted to approximately  $76,000.  There was $28,000 that
was included in interest income on such loans for the year ended March 31, 1999.

         Classified Assets.  Federal  regulations provide for the classification
of loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, considered by the
OCC to be of lesser quality, as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss." An asset is
considered  "substandard"  if it is  inadequately  protected  by the current net
worth and paying  capacity of the  obligor or the  collateral  pledged,  if any.
"Substandard"  assets include those characterized by the "distinct  possibility"
that the insured  institution  will sustain "some loss" if the  deficiencies are
not  corrected.  Assets  classified  as  "doubtful"  have all of the  weaknesses
inherent in those classified  "substandard" with the added  characteristic  that
the weaknesses  present make "collection or liquidation in full" on the basis of
currently  existing  facts,  conditions  and values,  "highly  questionable  and
improbable." Assets classified as "loss" are those

                                       14

<PAGE>



considered  "uncollectible"  and of such little value that their  continuance as
assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

         When  an  insured  institution  classifies  problem  assets  as  either
substandard or doubtful,  it may establish  general  allowances for losses in an
amount  deemed  prudent  by  management.   General  allowances   represent  loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities,  but which, unlike specific  allowances,  have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured  institution  classifies
problem  assets as  "loss,"  it is  required  either  to  establish  a  specific
allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or
to  charge-off  such  amount.   An   institution's   determination   as  to  the
classification  of its  assets  and the amount of its  valuation  allowances  is
subject to review by the regulatory authorities, who may order the establishment
of additional general or specific loss allowances.

         In connection with the filing of its periodic  reports with the OCC and
in accordance  with its  classification  of assets  policy,  the Bank  regularly
reviews  loans  in its  portfolio  to  determine  whether  such  assets  require
classification  in  accordance  with  applicable  regulations.  On the  basis of
management's  review of its assets, at March 31, 2000, the Bank had classified a
total of $1.8 million of its assets as substandard  and $1.0 million as doubtful
or loss. At March 31, 2000, total classified  assets comprised $2.8 million,  or
30.25% of the Bank's capital, or 3.23% of the Bank's total assets.

         Other Loans of Concern. As of March 31, 2000, there were $130,000 loans
identified,  but not  classified,  by the  Bank  with  respect  to  which  known
information  about the  possible  credit  problems of the  borrowers or the cash
flows of the  business  have  caused  management  to have some  doubts as to the
ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan  repayment  terms and which
may result in the future  inclusion  of such items in the  non-performing  asset
categories.

         Allowance for Loan Losses.  The allowance for loan losses is maintained
at a level which, in management's  judgment, is adequate to absorb credit losses
inherent  in the  loan  portfolio.  The  amount  of the  allowance  is  based on
management's  evaluation of the collectibility of the loan portfolio,  including
the nature of the portfolio,  credit  concentrations,  trends in historical loss
experience,  specific  impaired  loans and economic  conditions.  Allowances for
impaired  loans  are  generally  determined  based  on  collateral  values.  The
allowance  is  increased  by a provision  for loan  losses,  which is charged to
expense and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

         Real estate properties acquired through foreclosure are recorded at the
market fair value minus 20% of the market fair value.  If fair value at the date
of  foreclosure  is lower than the balance of the related loan,  the  difference
will be  charged-off  to the  allowance for loan losses at the time of transfer.
Valuations are periodically  updated by management and if the value declines,  a
specific  provision  for losses on such property is  established  by a charge to
operations.  At March 31, 2000,  the Bank had $79,000 in real estate  properties
acquired  through  foreclosure.  The properties are for sale and will be sold if
the offers to purchase are approved by the board.

         Although   management  believes  that  it  uses  the  best  information
available to determine the allowance,  unforeseen market conditions could result
in adjustments and net earnings could be significantly affected if circumstances
differ   substantially   from  the   assumptions   used  in  making   the  final
determination.  Future additions to the Bank's allowance for loan losses will be
the result of

                                       15

<PAGE>



periodic loan,  property and collateral  reviews and thus cannot be predicted in
advance. In addition,  federal regulatory  agencies,  as an integral part of the
examination  process,  periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses.
Such  agencies may require the Bank to increase the  allowance  based upon their
judgment of the information  available to them at the time of their examination.
At March 31, 2000,  the Bank had a total  allowance for loan losses of $630,000,
representing  0.97% of the  Bank's  loans.  See Note 4 of Notes To  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

         The  distribution  of the Bank's  allowance  for losses on loans at the
dates indicated is summarized as follows:

Investment Activities

         General.  Historically, the Bank has generally maintained liquid assets
at levels  believed  adequate  to meet the  requirements  of normal  operations,
including repayments of maturing debt and potential deposit outflows. Cash flows
projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity
is maintained.  A national bank is not subject to prescribed  requirements.  See
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resource" and "Regulation -- Liquidity."

         National banking  associations  have the authority to invest in various
types of liquid  assets,  including  U.S.  Treasury  obligations,  securities of
various federal agencies,  certain  certificates of deposit of insured banks and
savings institutions,  certain bankers'  acceptances,  repurchase agreements and
federal funds. Subject to various  restrictions,  national banks may also invest
their assets in commercial paper, investment grade corporate debt securities and
mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that a federally  chartered
savings institution is otherwise authorized to make directly.


                                       17

         Generally,  the  investment  policy of the Bank, as  established by the
Board of Directors,  is to invest funds among various  categories of investments
and maturities based upon the Bank's liquidity needs, asset/liability management
policies, investment quality, marketability and performance objectives.

         Investment  Securities.  At  March  31,  2000,  the  Bank's  investment
securities  (including a $397,000  investment in the common stock of the FHLB of
Chicago and Federal Reserve stock of $123,000) totaled $5.5 million, or 6.26% of
its total assets. It has been the Bank's general policy to invest in obligations
of state  and  political  subdivisions,  federal  agency  obligations  and other
investment securities.

         National  banks are  restricted in  investments  in corporate  debt and
equity securities.  These restrictions  include prohibitions against investments
in the  debt  securities  of any  one  issuer  in  excess  of 15% of the  Bank's
unimpaired  capital and  unimpaired  surplus as defined by federal  regulations,
which totaled $9.7 million as of March 31, 2000,  plus an additional  10% if the
investments  are fully secured by readily  marketable  collateral.  At March 31,
2000,  the Bank was in  compliance  with this  regulation.  See  "Regulation  --
Federal   Regulation   of  National   Banks"  for  a  discussion  of  additional
restrictions  on the  Bank's  investment  activities.  See  Note 1 of  Notes  To
Consolidated Financial Statements.

         The Bank's investment securities portfolio at March 31, 2000, contained
no securities of any issuer with an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of the
Bank's retained earnings,  excluding those issued by the U.S. government, or its
agencies.

         First Robinson's investments,  including the mortgage-backed securities
portfolio, are managed in accordance with a written investment policy adopted by
the Board of Directors.

         OCC  guidelines,  as  well  as  those  of  the  other  federal  banking
regulators,  regarding  investment portfolio policy and accounting require banks
to  categorize  securities  and certain  other assets as held for  "investment,"
"sale," or "trading."  In addition,  effective  April 1, 1994,  the Bank adopted
SFAS 115 which states that  securities  available  for sale are accounted for at
fair value and securities  which  management has the intent and the Bank has the
ability to hold to maturity are  accounted for on an amortized  cost basis.  The
Bank's investment policy has strategies for each type of security.  At March 31,
2000, the Bank classified $15.6 million of its investments as available for sale
and $895,000 as held to maturity.

         Mortgage-backed  Securities.  The Bank  invests  primarily  in  federal
agency obligations.  At March 31, 2000, the Bank's investment in mortgage-backed
securities  totaled $11.0 million or 12.59% of its total assets. Of this amount,
$747,000 was held to maturity and $10.2 million was available for sale. At March
31, 2000, the Bank did not have a trading portfolio.

         The   following   table  sets  forth  the   maturities  of  the  Bank's
mortgage-backed securities at March 31, 2000.

Sources of Funds

         General.  The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits,  receipt of
principal and interest on loans and securities, interest earned on deposits with
other banks, and other funds provided from operations.

         The Bank has used FHLB advances to support  lending  activities  and to
assist in the Bank's  asset/liability  management  strategy.  See  "Management's
Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of  Operations  --
Asset\Liability  Management."  At March 31,  2000,  the Bank had $3.6 million in
FHLB advances,  but had the capacity to borrow an additional  $14.6 million from
the FHLB.  The Bank could also borrow up to $2.0  million  from a  correspondent
bank  located in  Chicago,  Illinois,  and an  additional  $2.0  million  form a
correspondent  bank  located  in  Springfield,   Illinois.  The  Bank  has  also
established borrowing capabilities with the Federal Reserve Bank of St.
Louis.  See Note 8 of Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements.

         At March 31, 2000, the Bank had $1.5 million in repurchase  agreements.
See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

         Deposits.  The Bank offers a variety of deposit  accounts having a wide
range of interest  rates and terms.  The Bank's  deposits  consist of  passbook,
money market deposit, IRA accounts,  and certificate  accounts.  The certificate
accounts  currently  range in terms from 90 days to five  years.  The Bank has a
significant  amount of  deposits  that will  mature  within  one year.  However,
management expects that virtually all of the deposits will be renewed.

         The Bank relies primarily on advertising,  competitive pricing policies
and customer service to attract and retain these deposits.  Currently,  the Bank
solicits  deposits from its market area only, and does not use brokers to obtain
deposits.  The flow of deposits is influenced  significantly by general economic
conditions,   changes  in  money  market  and  prevailing   interest  rates  and
competition.


         The Bank has become more  susceptible  to  short-term  fluctuations  in
deposit flows as customers  have become more interest rate  conscious.  The Bank
endeavors   to  manage  the  pricing  of  its   deposits  in  keeping  with  its
profitability objectives giving consideration to its asset/liability management.
The  ability  of  the  Bank  to  attract  and  maintain   savings  accounts  and
certificates of deposit, and the rates paid on these deposits, has been and will
continue to be significantly affected by market conditions.  See Note 7 of Notes
To Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subsidiary Activities

         As a national  bank,  the Bank is able to invest  unlimited  amounts in
subsidiaries that are engaged in activities in which the parent bank may engage.
In addition,  a national bank may invest limited  amounts in  subsidiaries  that
provide  banking  services,   such  as  data  processing,   to  other  financial
institutions.  At March 31, 2000,  the Bank had one  subsidiary,  First Robinson
Service Corporation, Inc.

Competition

         The Bank faces strong  competition,  both in  originating  real estate,
commercial  and  consumer  loans  and in  attracting  deposits.  Competition  in
originating  loans  comes  primarily  from  commercial  banks and credit  unions
located in the Bank's market area. Commercial banks provide vigorous competition
in  consumer  lending.  The  Bank  competes  for real  estate  and  other  loans
principally  on the basis of the quality of  services it provides to  borrowers,
the interest rates and loan processing  fees it charges,  and the types of loans
it originates. See "-- Lending Activities."

         The Bank  attracts  all of its  deposits  through  its  retail  banking
office.  Therefore,  competition  for those deposits is principally  from retail
brokerage offices,  commercial banks and credit unions located in the community.
The  Bank  competes  for  these  deposits  by  offering  a  variety  of  account
alternatives at competitive rates and by providing convenient business hours.

         The Bank primarily  serves Crawford  County,  Illinois.  There are four
commercial  banks and one credit  union which  compete for deposits and loans in
the Bank's market area.


                                   REGULATION

General

         The Company is a  registered  bank  holding  company,  subject to broad
federal  regulation  and oversight by the FRB. The Bank is a national  bank, the
deposits of which are federally  insured and backed by the full faith and credit
of the U.S.  Government.  Accordingly,  the  Bank is  subject  to broad  federal
regulation  and oversight  extending to all its  operations by the OCC, the FDIC
and the FRB.  The Bank is also a member  of the FHLB of  Chicago.  The Bank is a
member of the SAIF and the deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC.

         Certain of these regulatory requirements and restrictions are discussed
below or  elsewhere  in this  document.  See  Note 9 of  Notes  To  Consolidated
Financial Statements.


                                       24

Federal Regulation of National Banks

         The OCC has extensive  authority over the operations of national banks.
As part of this  authority,  the Bank is required to file periodic  reports with
the OCC and is subject to periodic  examinations  by the OCC. All national banks
are subject to a semi-annual assessment,  based upon the bank's total assets, to
fund the operations of the OCC.

         The OCC also has  extensive  enforcement  authority  over all  national
banks,  including the Bank. This  enforcement  authority  includes,  among other
things, the ability to assess civil money penalties,  to issue  cease-and-desist
or  removal  orders  and to  initiate  injunctive  actions.  In  general,  these
enforcement  actions may be initiated for violations of laws and  regulations as
well as unsafe or unsound practices.  Other actions or inactions may provide the
basis for enforcement  action,  including  misleading or untimely  reports filed
with the OCC.  Except under certain  circumstances,  public  disclosure of final
enforcement actions by the OCC is required.

         The Bank's  loans-to-one  borrower limit is generally limited to 15% of
unimpaired capital and surplus.  At March 31, 2000, the maximum amount which the
Bank could have lent under  this limit to any one  borrower  and the  borrower's
related entities was approximately $1.4 million. At March 31, 2000, the Bank had
no loans or groups of loans to related  borrowers with  outstanding  balances in
excess of this amount.  The Bank's five largest lending  relationships  at March
31, 2000 totaled $6.3 million in the aggregate and were performing in accordance
with their terms with the exception of one borrower with loans totaling $862,000
who was in Chapter 12 reorganized  bankruptcy.  Of this amount, $2.3 million was
participated to other lenders.

         The OCC, as well as the other federal  banking  agencies,  have adopted
regulations and guidelines  establishing  safety and soundness standards on such
matters as loan  underwriting  and  documentation,  internal  controls and audit
systems,   interest  rate  risk  exposure,   asset  quality  and  earnings,  and
compensation and other employee benefits.  Any institution which fails to comply
with these  standards must submit a compliance  plan. A failure to submit a plan
or to comply  with an approved  plan will  subject  the  institution  to further
enforcement action.

Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC

         The Bank is a member of the SAIF,  which is  administered  by the FDIC.
Deposits are insured up to applicable  limits by the FDIC and such  insurance is
backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. As insurer, the FDIC
imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct  examinations of
and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions.  It also may prohibit any
FDIC-insured  institution  from engaging in any activity the FDIC  determines by
regulation  or order to pose a serious  risk to the FDIC.  The FDIC also has the
authority to initiate  enforcement actions against banks after giving the OCC an
opportunity to take such action,  and may terminate the deposit  insurance if it
determines that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is
in an unsafe or unsound condition.


                                       25

<PAGE>



         The FDIC's deposit insurance premiums are assessed through a risk-based
system under which all insured  depository  institutions  are placed into one of
nine  categories  and  assessed  insurance  premiums  based upon their  level of
capital and supervisory evaluation. Under the system, institutions classified as
well capitalized (i.e., a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 5%, a ratio of Tier 1
capital to risk-weighted assets ("Tier 1 risk-based capital") of at least 6% and
a risk-based  capital  ratio of at least 10%) and  considered  healthy,  pay the
lowest premium,  while  institutions  that are less than adequately  capitalized
(i.e.,  Tier 1 or  Tier  1  risk-based  capital  ratios  of  less  than  4% or a
risk-based  capital  ratio  of less  than  8%)  and  considered  of  substantial
supervisory concern pay the highest premium.  Risk classification of all insured
institutions will be made by the FDIC for each semi-annual assessment period.

         SAIF-insured  and  BIF-insured  institutions  are  required  to  pay  a
Financing Corporation (FICO) assessment,  in order to fund the interest on bonds
issued to resolve thrift  failures in the 1980s,  equal to  approximately  2.120
basis points for each $100 in domestic deposits. These assessments, which may be
revised based upon the level of BIF and SAIF  deposits  will continue  until the
bonds mature in the years 2017 through 2019.

         National Banks.  The Bank is subject to the capital  regulations of the
OCC. The OCC's regulations establish two capital standards for national banks: a
leverage requirement and a risk-based capital requirement.  In addition, the OCC
may, on a case-by-case basis,  establish individual minimum capital requirements
for a national bank that vary from the requirements  which would otherwise apply
under OCC  regulations.  A  national  bank that  fails to  satisfy  the  capital
requirements  established  under the OCC's  regulations  will be subject to such
administrative action or sanctions as the OCC deems appropriate.

         The leverage ratio adopted by the OCC requires a minimum ratio of "Tier
1 capital" to adjusted total assets of 3% for national  banks rated  composite 1
under the CAMELS rating system for banks.  National banks not rated  composite 1
under the CAMELS  rating  system for banks are  required  to  maintain a minimum
ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets of 4% to 5%, depending upon the
level  and  nature  of risks of their  operations.  For  purposes  of the  OCC's
leverage requirement,  Tier 1 capital generally consists of common stockholders'
equity and retained income and certain non-cumulative  perpetual preferred stock
and related income,  except that no intangibles and certain  purchased  mortgage
servicing  rights and  purchased  credit card  relationships  may be included in
capital.

         The   risk-based   capital   requirements   established  by  the  OCC's
regulations require national banks to maintain "total capital" equal to at least
8% of  total  risk-weighted  assets.  For  purposes  of the  risk-based  capital
requirement,  "total  capital"  means Tier 1 capital (as  described  above) plus
"Tier 2 capital,"  provided that the amount of Tier 2 capital may not exceed the
amount of Tier 1 capital,  less certain assets. The components of Tier 2 capital
include certain  permanent and maturing capital  instruments that do not qualify
as core capital and general  valuation  loan and lease loss  allowances  up to a
maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.


                                       26

<PAGE>



         Prompt  Corrective  Action.  The OCC is authorized  and,  under certain
circumstances required, to take certain actions against national banks that fail
to meet their capital requirements. The OCC is generally required to take action
to restrict  the  activities  of an  "undercapitalized  institution"  (generally
defined to be one with less than  either a 4% core  capital  ratio,  a 4% Tier 1
risked-based  capital  ratio  or an  8%  risk-based  capital  ratio).  Any  such
institution  must  submit a  capital  restoration  plan and  until  such plan is
approved by the OCC may not increase its assets,  acquire  another  institution,
establish a branch or engage in any new  activities,  and generally may not make
capital   distributions.   The  OCC  is  authorized  to  impose  the  additional
restrictions that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized institutions.

         Any  national  bank that fails to comply  with its  capital  plan or is
"significantly undercapitalized" (i.e., Tier 1 risk-based or core capital ratios
of less  than 3% or a  risk-based  capital  ratio of less  than 6%) must be made
subject  to  one  or  more  of  additional   specified   actions  and  operating
restrictions  which may cover all aspects of its operations and include a forced
merger or  acquisition  of the bank. A national  bank that  becomes  "critically
undercapitalized"  (i.e., a tangible  capital ratio of 2% or less) is subject to
further mandatory restrictions on its activities in addition to those applicable
to  significantly  undercapitalized  institutions.  In  addition,  the OCC  must
appoint a receiver  (or  conservator  with the  concurrence  of the FDIC) for an
institution,  with certain limited  exceptions,  within 90 days after it becomes
critically undercapitalized. Any undercapitalized institution is also subject to
the general  enforcement  authority of the OCC,  including the  appointment of a
conservator or a receiver.

         The OCC is also generally  authorized to reclassify a bank into a lower
capital category and impose the restrictions  applicable to such category if the
institution  is  engaged in unsafe or  unsound  practices  or is in an unsafe or
unsound condition.

         The imposition by the OCC of any of these measures on the Bank may have
a substantial  adverse effect on the Bank's operations and profitability and the
value of the Company's common stock.

Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions

         The Bank's  ability to pay  dividends is governed by the National  Bank
Act and OCC regulations.  Under such statute and regulations, all dividends by a
national  bank  must be paid out of  current  or  retained  net  profits,  after
deducting  reserves  for losses and bad debts.  The  National  Bank Act  further
restricts the payment of dividends out of net profits by  prohibiting a national
bank from  declaring  a cash  dividend  on its shares of common  stock until the
surplus fund equals the amount of capital stock or, if the surplus fund does not
equal the amount of capital stock, until one-tenth of the bank's net profits for
the preceding  half year in the case of quarterly or semi-annual  dividends,  or
the  preceding  two  half-year  periods  in the case of  annual  dividends,  are
transferred  to the surplus fund. In addition,  the prior approval of the OCC is
required for the payment of a dividend if the total of all dividends declared by
a national bank in any calendar year would exceed

                                       27

<PAGE>



the total of its net profits for the year  combined with its net profits for the
two preceding  years,  less any required  transfers to surplus or a fund for the
retirement of any preferred stock.

         The OCC has the  authority  to prohibit  the payment of  dividends by a
national  bank when it  determines  such  payment  to be an unsafe  and  unsound
banking practice.  In addition,  the bank would be prohibited by federal statute
and the OCC's  prompt  corrective  action  regulations  from  making any capital
distribution  if, after  giving  effect to the  distribution,  the bank would be
classified  as  "undercapitalized"   under  OCC  regulations.   See  "--  Prompt
Corrective Action." Finally,  the Bank would not be able to pay dividends on its
capital  stock if its  capital  would  thereby  be reduced  below the  remaining
balance of the  liquidation  account  established in connection  with the Bank's
conversion from mutual to stock form.

Accounting

         The OCC requires  that  investment  activities of a national bank be in
compliance with approved and documented investment policies and strategies,  and
must  be  accounted  for  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted   accounting
principles ("GAAP"). Accordingly,  management must support its classification of
and accounting for loans and securities (i.e., whether held for investment, sale
or trading) with appropriate documentation. The Bank is in compliance with these
requirements.

Community Reinvestment Act

         Under  the  Community  Reinvestment  Act  ("CRA"),  every  FDIC-insured
institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with safe and
sound banking  practices to help meet the credit needs of its entire  community,
including  low and moderate  income  neighborhoods.  The CRA does not  establish
specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it
limit an institution's  discretion to develop the types of products and services
that it believes are best suited to its particular  community,  consistent  with
the CRA. The CRA requires the OCC, in  connection  with the  examination  of the
institution,  to assess the institution's  record of meeting the credit needs of
its community and to take such record into account in its  evaluation of certain
applications,  such  as a  merger  or  the  establishment  of a  branch,  by the
institution. An unsatisfactory rating may be used as the basis for the denial of
an application by the OCC.

Transactions with Affiliates

         Generally, transactions between a national bank or its subsidiaries and
its  affiliates  are  required  to be on  terms  as  favorable  to the  bank  as
transactions with  non-affiliates.  In addition,  certain of these transactions,
such as loans to an  affiliate,  are  restricted  to a percentage  of the bank's
capital.  Affiliates  of the bank  include  any  company  which is under  common
control with the bank. In addition,  the bank may not acquire the  securities of
most affiliates.  Subsidiaries of the bank are not deemed  affiliates.  However,
the Federal  Reserve Board (the "FRB") has the discretion to treat  subsidiaries
of national banks as affiliates on a case-by-case basis.

                                       28

<PAGE>



         Certain  transactions with directors,  officers or controlling  persons
("Insiders") are also subject to conflict of interest rules enforced by the OCC.
These  conflict  of  interest   regulations   and  other  statutes  also  impose
restrictions on loans to such persons and their related  interests.  Among other
things,  as  a  general  matter,  loans  to  Insiders  must  be  made  on  terms
substantially the same as for loans to unaffiliated individuals.

Federal Reserve System

         The FRB requires all depository  institutions to maintain  non-interest
bearing  reserves  at  specified  levels  against  their  transaction   accounts
(primarily  checking,  NOW and Super NOW checking accounts).  At March 31, 2000,
the Bank had  $123,000 FRB stock,  which was in  compliance  with these  reserve
requirements.

         The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System.  National banks are
authorized to borrow from the Federal  Reserve Bank  "discount  window," but FRB
regulations  require banks to exhaust other  reasonable  alternative  sources of
funds, including FHLB borrowings, before borrowing from the FRB.

Holding Company Regulation

         General. The Company is a bank holding company registered with the FRB.
Bank holding companies are subject to comprehensive  regulation by the FRB under
the BHCA, and the regulations of the FRB. As a bank holding company, the Company
is required to file reports with the FRB and such additional  information as the
FRB may require, and will be subject to regular examinations by the FRB. The FRB
also has extensive enforcement authority over bank holding companies, including,
among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties,  to issue cease
and  desist or  removal  orders and to  require  that a holding  company  divest
subsidiaries (including its bank subsidiaries).  In general, enforcement actions
may be initiated  for  violations of law and  regulations  and unsafe or unsound
practices.

         Under FRB  policy,  a bank  holding  company  must serve as a source of
strength for its subsidiary  banks.  Under this policy the FRB may require,  and
has required in the past, a holding company to contribute  additional capital to
an undercapitalized subsidiary bank.

         Under the Banking  Holding  Company Act (the  "BHCA"),  a bank  holding
company must obtain FRB approval before: (i) acquiring,  directly or indirectly,
ownership  or  control  of any voting  shares of  another  bank or bank  holding
company if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more than 5% of such
shares  (unless it already owns or controls the majority of such  shares);  (ii)
acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding
company; or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.

         The  BHCA  also  prohibits  a  bank  holding   company,   with  certain
exceptions,  from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than
5% of the voting shares of any company which

                                       29

<PAGE>



is not a bank or bank holding company,  or from engaging  directly or indirectly
in activities  other than those of banking,  managing or controlling  banks,  or
providing  services for its  subsidiaries.  The  principal  exceptions  to these
prohibitions  involve certain  non-bank  activities  which, by statute or by FRB
regulation or order,  have been identified as activities  closely related to the
business of banking or managing or  controlling  banks.  The list of  activities
permitted  by  the  FRB  includes,  among  other  things,  operating  a  savings
institution, mortgage company, finance company, credit card company or factoring
company;  performing  certain  data  processing  operations;  providing  certain
investment and financial  advice;  underwriting and acting as an insurance agent
for  certain  types  of   credit-related   insurance;   leasing  property  on  a
full-payout,  non-operating basis;  selling money orders,  travelers' checks and
U.S. Savings Bonds; real estate and personal property appraising;  providing tax
planning  and  preparation  services;   and,  subject  to  certain  limitations,
providing  securities  brokerage  services  for  customers.  The  Company has no
present plans to engage in any of these activities.

         Interstate   Banking  and   Branching.   On  September  29,  1994,  the
Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Act of 1994 (the "Act") was enacted
to ease restrictions on interstate  banking.  Effective  September 29, 1995, the
Act allows the FRB to approve an  application of an adequately  capitalized  and
adequately managed bank holding company to acquire control of, or acquire all or
substantially  all of the assets of, a bank  located in a state  other than such
holding  company's  home state,  without  regard to whether the  transaction  is
prohibited by the laws of any state.  The FRB may not approve the acquisition of
the  bank  that has not been in  existence  for the  minimum  time  period  (not
exceeding five years)  specified by the statutory law of the host state. The Act
also  prohibits the FRB from  approving an application if the applicant (and its
depository  institution  affiliates)  controls or would control more than 10% of
the insured  deposits in the United States or 30% or more of the deposits in the
target  bank's home state or in any state in which the target  bank  maintains a
branch.  The Act does not affect the authority of states to limit the percentage
of total insured deposits in the state which may be held or controlled by a bank
or bank  holding  company to the extent such  limitation  does not  discriminate
against out-of-state banks or bank holding companies. Individual states may also
waive the 30% state-wide  concentration limit contained in the Act. The State of
Illinois  does  not  currently  have any  deposit  concentration  limits  or age
protection for new banks.

         Additionally,  on June 1,  1997,  the  federal  banking  agencies  were
authorized to approve interstate merger  transactions  without regard to whether
such transaction is prohibited by the law of any state, unless the home state of
one of the  banks  opts  out of the Act by  adopting  a law  after  the  date of
enactment  of the Act and prior to June 1, 1997  which  applies  equally  to all
out-of-state  banks  and  expressly  prohibits  merger  transactions   involving
out-of-state banks.  Interstate  acquisitions of branches will be permitted only
if  the  law  of  the  state  in  which  the  branch  is  located  permits  such
acquisitions. Interstate mergers and branch acquisitions will also be subject to
the nationwide and statewide  insured deposit  concentration  amounts  described
above.  The State of Illinois  has  authorized  interstate  merger  transactions
effective June 1, 1997.

         The Act authorizes the OCC and FDIC to approve interstate  branching de
novo  by  national  and  state  banks,   respectively,   only  in  states  which
specifically allow for such branching. The Act

                                       30

<PAGE>



also requires the appropriate federal banking agencies to prescribe  regulations
by June 1, 1997 which prohibit any  out-of-state  bank from using the interstate
branching  authority  primarily  for the  purpose of deposit  production.  These
regulations must include guidelines to ensure that interstate  branches operated
by an  out-of-state  bank in a host  state are  reasonably  helping  to meet the
credit needs of the communities which they serve.

         Dividends. The FRB has issued a policy statement on the payment of cash
dividends by bank holding companies,  which expresses the FRB's view that a bank
holding  company should pay cash dividends only to the extent that the Company's
net income for the past year is sufficient to cover both the cash  dividends and
a rate of earning retention that is consistent with the Company's capital needs,
asset quality and overall  financial  condition.  The FRB also indicated that it
would be inappropriate for a company  experiencing serious financial problems to
borrow funds to pay dividends.  Furthermore,  under the prompt corrective action
regulations adopted by the FRB, the FRB may prohibit a bank holding company from
paying any dividends if the holding  company's bank  subsidiary is classified as
"undercapitalized".   See  "  --  Regulatory  Capital   Requirements  --  Prompt
Corrective Action."

         Redemption.  Bank holding  companies are required to give the FRB prior
written  notice  of  any  purchase  or  redemption  of  its  outstanding  equity
securities  if the gross  consideration  for the  purchase or  redemption,  when
combined with the net  consideration  paid for all such purchases or redemptions
during the  preceding 12 months,  is equal to 10% or more of their  consolidated
net worth. The FRB may disapprove such a purchase or redemption if it determines
that the  proposal  would  constitute  an unsafe or  unsound  practice  or would
violate any law, regulation,  FRB order, or any condition imposed by, or written
agreement  with, the FRB. This  notification  requirement  does not apply to any
company that meets the  well-capitalized  standard for commercial banks, is well
managed and is not subject to any unresolved supervisory issues.

         Capital Requirements.  The FRB has established capital requirements for
bank holding  companies that  generally  parallel the capital  requirements  for
national banks. For bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than
$150  million,  such as the Company,  compliance  is measured on a  case-by-case
basis. See "-- Regulatory Capital Requirements -- National Banks." The Company's
capital exceeds such requirements.

Federal Home Loan Bank System

         The  Bank is a  member  of the  FHLB  of  Chicago,  which  is one of 12
regional FHLBs,  that  administers the home financing credit function of savings
institutions.  Each FHLB  serves as a reserve  or central  bank for its  members
within its assigned  region.  It is funded  primarily from proceeds derived from
the sale of  consolidated  obligations  of the FHLB  System.  It makes  loans to
members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures, established
by the board of directors of the FHLB which are subject to the  oversight of the
Federal  Housing  Finance  Board.  All advances from the FHLB are required to be
fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by

                                       31

<PAGE>



the FHLB. In addition,  all long-term advances are required to provide funds for
residential home financing.

         As a member, the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the
FHLB of Chicago.  At March 31, 2000, the Bank had $397,000 in FHLB stock,  which
was in compliance with this requirement. In the past year, the Bank has received
dividends on its FHLB stock.

         Under  federal  law the FHLBs are  required  to  provide  funds for the
resolution  of  troubled  savings  institutions  and to  contribute  to low- and
moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies on
advances targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income  housing
projects.  These  contributions  have  affected  adversely  the  level  of  FHLB
dividends  paid and could continue to do so in the future.  These  contributions
could also have an adverse  effect on the value of FHLB stock in the  future.  A
reduction  in value of the  Bank's  FHLB  stock may  result  in a  corresponding
reduction in the Bank's capital.

Federal and State Taxation

         Federal Taxation.  In addition to the regular income tax,  corporations
generally are subject to a minimum tax. An alternative minimum tax is imposed at
a minimum tax rate of 20% on alternative  minimum taxable  income,  which is the
sum of a corporation's regular taxable income (with certain adjustments) and tax
preference items, less any available  exemption.  The alternative minimum tax is
imposed to the extent it exceeds the  corporation's  regular  income tax and net
operating  losses can  offset no more than 90% of  alternative  minimum  taxable
income.

         The Bank has recorded a deferred tax asset of  approximately  $242,000,
of which $266,000 relates to unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities,
which has been reduced for income tax timing  adjustments.  See Note 11 of Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements.

         The Company and the Bank file a  consolidated  income tax return on the
accrual basis of accounting.  Neither the Company nor the Bank have been audited
by the IRS with respect to federal income tax returns.

         Illinois Taxation.  For Illinois income tax purposes, the Bank is taxed
at an  effective  rate  equal to 7.18% of  Illinois  taxable  income.  For these
purposes,  "Illinois  Taxable  Income"  generally  means federal taxable income,
subject to certain  adjustments,  including  the addition of interest  income on
state and municipal  obligations  and the  exclusion of interest  income on U.S.
Treasury obligations.

         The Bank's accounting activities are maintained on an in-house computer
system.


                                       32

<PAGE>



Competition

         The Bank faces strong  competition,  both in  originating  real estate,
commercial  and  consumer  loans  and in  attracting  deposits.  Competition  in
originating  loans comes  primarily  from  commercial  banks,  credit unions and
savings institutions located in the Bank's market area. Commercial banks, credit
unions  and  savings  institutions  provide  vigorous  competition  in  consumer
lending.  The Bank competes for real estate and other loans  principally  on the
basis of the quality of services it provides to  borrowers,  the interest  rates
and loan processing fees it charges,  and the types of loans it originates.  See
"-- Lending Activities."

         The Bank  attracts  all of its  deposits  through  its  retail  banking
offices.  Therefore,  competition for those deposits is principally  from retail
brokerage  offices,  commercial  banks,  credit unions and savings  institutions
located in the  community.  The Bank  competes for these  deposits by offering a
variety of account alternatives at competitive rates and by providing convenient
business hours.

         The Bank primarily  serves  Crawford  County,  Illinois and surrounding

Item 9. Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons; Compliance
        with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Directors

         Information  concerning directors of the Company is incorporated herein
by reference  from the  definitive  Proxy  Statement  for the Annual  Meeting of
Stockholders  to be held on July 27,  2000,  a copy of which  will be filed  not
later than 120 days after the close of the fiscal year.

Compliance with Section 16(a)

         Section  16(a) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  requires  the
Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of
a registered  class of the  Company's  equity  securities,  to file with the SEC
initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock
and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than
10 percent  stockholders  are required by SEC  regulation to furnish the Company
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

         To the Company's  knowledge,  based solely on a review of the copies of
such reports furnished to the Company and written  representations that no other
reports were required,  during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000, all Section
16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than
10  percent  beneficial  owners  were  complied  with.  However,   Clell  Keller
