Item 2.
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Forward-Looking  Statements.  When  used in this  Form  10-Q or future
filings  by  Montgomery  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission,   in
Montgomery's  press releases or other public shareholder  communications,  or in
oral statements made with the approval of an authorized  executive officer,  the
words or phrases, "will likely result", "are expected to", "will continue",  "is
anticipated",  "estimate",  "project",  "believe",  or similar  expressions  are
intended  to  identify  "forward-looking  statements"  within the meaning of the
Private Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Montgomery wishes to caution
readers not to place  undue  reliance  on any such  forward-looking  statements,
which  speak  only as of the date  made,  and to  advise  readers  that  various
factors, including regional and national economic conditions,  changes in levels
of market interest rates,  credit risks of lending  activities,  and competitive
and regulatory factors, could affect Montgomery' financial performance and could
cause  Montgomery's  actual results for future periods to differ materially from
those anticipated or projected.  Montgomery does not undertake, and specifically
disclaims any obligation,  to revise any  forward-looking  statements to reflect
the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the
date of such statements.

          Financial Condition.  Montgomery's total assets were $121.5 million at
December 31,  1998,  an increase of $4.3  million,  or 3.7 percent from June 30,
1998. During this six month period  interest-earning  assets,  including Federal
Home Loan Bank  advances,  increased  $4.0 million,  or 3.5 percent.  Short-term
interest-earning  deposits  decreased  $1.9  million,  or  17.5  percent.  Loans
increased  $5.1  million,  or 5.1  percent,  which is the  approximate  increase
budgeted for the current  year-to-date.  Deposits decreased $3.7 million, or 4.4
percent and borrowings  increased $8.8 million,  or 77.7 percent,  causing a net
increase  in  interest-bearing  liabilities  of 5.4  percent.  The  decrease  in
deposits was primarily the result of a decrease in public funds  deposits due to
short term bid rates being above the cost of longer term  Federal Home Loan Bank
advance  rates.  The  increase in advances  was used to replace the  decrease in
deposits and to fund loan growth.

          Capital  and   Liquidity.   At   December   31,   1998,   Montgomery's
stockholders'  equity was $19,690,000 or 16.2 percent of total assets,  compared
with  stockholders'  equity of $20,065,000,  or 17.1 percent,  at June 30, 1998.
With  the  approval  of the  OTS  on  September  24,1998,  Montgomery  began  to
repurchase  82,651,  or 5.0  percent  of its  outstanding  common  stock.  As of
December 31, 1998 Montgomery had repurchased  63,351 shares of common stock at a
cost of $694,000,  leaving  19,300 shares to be repurchased to complete the 5.0%
authorized.  On February 4, 1999 Montgomery  completed the repurchase program of
82,651  shares at a total cost of  $891,000.00.  The  Association  continues  to
exceed all minimum capital requirements. At December 31, 1998, the Association's
tangible and core capital was  $16,033,000,  or 13.4 percent of tangible assets,
$14,232,000 in excess of the 1.5 percent minimum  required  tangible capital and
$11,230,000  in  excess  of the  4.0  percent  minimum  required  core  capital.
Risk-based capital equaled $15,327,000, or 20.5 percent of risk-weighted assets,
$9,344,000  more than the  minimum 8.0 percent  risk based level  required.  The
director of the OTS is required to set minimum liquidity levels between four and
10 percent of assets.  Current  regulations require a minimum liquidity level of
five percent. The Association's average liquidity ratio for the six months ended
December 31, 1998, was 8.1 percent.

          Asset/Liability  Management.  The  Association,  like other  financial
institutions,  is  subject  to  interest  rate  risk  to the  extent  that  its'
interest-bearing   liabilities   reprice   on  a   different   basis  than  its'
interest-bearing  assets. OTS regulations  provide a Net Portfolio Value ("NPV")
approach to the quantification of interest rate risk. In essence,  this approach
calculates the  difference  between the present value of  liabilities,  expected
cash flows from assets and cash flows from off balance  sheet  contracts.  Under
OTS regulations,  an  institution's  "normal" level of interest rate risk in the
event of an immediate and sustained 200 basis point change in interest  rates is
a decrease in the  institution's NPV in an amount not exceeding 2 percent of the
present  value of its assets.  Thrift  institutions  with greater than  "normal"
interest rate exposure must take a deduction from their total capital  available
to meet their risk-based  capital  requirement.  The amount of that deduction is
one-half of the  difference  between  (a) the  institution's  actual  calculated
exposure to the 200 basis point  interest  rate increase or decrease ( whichever
results in the greater pro forma  decrease in NPV) or (b) its "normal"  level of
exposure  which is 2% of the present value of its assets.  Regulations do exempt
all institutions  under $300 million in assets with risk-based  capital above 12
percent  from  reporting  information  to  calculate  exposure  and  making  any
deduction from risk-based  capital. At December 31, 1998 the Association's total
assets were $120.5 million and risk based capital was 20.5 percent; therefor the
Association  would have been exempt from  calculating  or making any  risk-based
capital reduction.  The Association's  management believes interest-rate risk is
an  important  factor  and  makes  all  reports  necessary  to OTS to  calculate
interest-rate  risk on a voluntary basis. At September 30, 1998, the most recent
date for which information was available from the OTS, 2.0% of the present value
of the Association's assets was approximately $2.42 million, which was less than
$2.82  million,  the greatest  decrease in NPV resulting  from a 200 basis point
change in  interest  rates.  As a result,  the  Association,  for OTS  reporting
purposes,  would have been  required to make a deduction  from total  capital in
calculating its risk-based capital  requirement had this rule been in effect and
had the  Association  not been  exempt  from  reporting  on such date.  Based on
September 30, 1998 NPV information,  the amount of the  Association's  deduction
from capital,  had it been subject to reporting,  would have been  approximately
$200,000.
          It has been and continues to be a priority of the Association's  Board
of Directors and  management to manage  interest rate risk and thereby limit any
negative  effect  of  changes  in  interest  rates  on  Montgomery's   NPV.  The
Association's Interest Rate Risk Policy,  established by the Board of Directors,
promulgates  acceptable  limits on the  amount  of  change in NPV given  certain
changes in interest  rates.  Specific  strategies  have included  shortening the
amortized  maturity of fixed-rate  loans and increasing the volume of adjustable
rate loans to reduce the average maturity of the Association's  interest-earning
assets.  FHLB advances are used in an effort to match the effective  maturity of
the Association's interest-bearing liabilities to its interest-earning assets.

          Presented  below, as of September 30, 1998, and September 30, 1997, is
an analysis of the  Association's  estimated  interest  rate risk as measured by
changes in NPV for  instantaneous  and  sustained  parallel  shifts in  interest
rates, up and down 300 basis points in 100 point increments,  compared to limits
set by the Board.  Assumptions used in calculating the amounts in this table are
assumptions utilized by the OTS in assessing the interest risk of the thrifts it
regulates.  Based upon these assumptions at September 30, 1998 and September 30,
1997,  the  NPV  of  the   Association  was  $18.5  million  and  $18.6  million
respectively. NPV is calculated by the OTS for the purpose of interest rate risk
assessment  and  should  not be  considered  as an  indicator  of  value  of the
Association.

          In the event of a 300 basis point  change in interest  rate based upon
estimates  as of  September  30, 1998 the  Association  would  experience  a 24%
increase, compared to a 7% increase at September 30, 1997, in NPV in a declining
rate environment and a 26% decrease, compared to a 29% decrease at September 30,
1997, in NPV in a rising environment.  During periods of rising rates, the value
of  monetary  assets and  liabilities  decline.  Conversely,  during  periods of
falling rates, the value of monetary assets and liabilities  increase.  However,
the amount of change in value of specific  assets and liabilities due to changes
in rates  is not the same in a rising  rate  environment  as in a  falling  rate
environment  (i.e.,  the amount of value  increase under a specific rate decline
may not equal the  amount  of value  decrease  under an  identical  upward  rate
movement). Based upon the NPV methodology,  the increased level of interest rate
risk  experienced by the  Association in recent periods was primarily due to the
interest rate on interest-bearing  liabilities increasing more than the interest
rate on  interest-earning  assets  because of the annual  and  lifetime  caps on
interest rate  adjustments  for adjustable  rate loans and because of the lag in
rate adjustments for such loans as compared to interest-bearing liabilities.

          Results of  Operations.  Montgomery's  net income for the three months
ended December 31, 1998, was $236,000  compared to $200,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1997, an increase of $36,000,  or 18.1 percent.  Net interest
income increased $74,000,  or 8.1 percent,  primarily due an increase in average
interest-earning   assets   of  $13.3   million,   or  13.4   percent.   Average
interest-earning  assets were $112.7 million for the three months ended December
31, 1998  compared to $99.4  million for the 1997  three-month  period.  Average
interest-bearing liabilities increased $13.1 million from $81.3 million to $94.4
million  during  the  comparable  three-month  periods.   Interest  rate  spread
decreased  from 2.68 percent for the three months  ended  December 31, 1997,  to
2.62 percent for the three months ended December 31, 1998.  Net interest  margin
decreased to 3.51 percent for the three months ended December 31, 1998 from 3.68
percent for the three months ended  December 31, 1997.  Non-interest  income was
$9,000 for the 1998 three-month  period compared to $10,000 for the 1997 period.
Non-interest  expense was $627,000 for the three months ended  December 31, 1998
compared to $567,000 for the 1997 three-month period, an increase of $60,000, or
10.7  percent.  This  increase  was  primarily  due to an  increase  in employee
benefits  due to an increase in the number of employees  in  preparation  of the
opening of a Lafayette, Indiana office.

          For the six months ended  December  31, 1998,  net income was $491,000
compared to $425,000 for the six months ended  December 31, 1997, an increase of
$66,000,  or 15.4 percent.  This increase was again primarily due to an increase
in net interest  income from  $1,803,000  for the six months ended  December 31,
1997 to  $1,957,000  for the six months ended  December 31, 1998, an increase of
$154,000,  or 8.6  percent.  Average  interest-earning  assets  increased  $14.1
million from $98.4 million for the six months ended  December 31, 1997 to $112.5
million for the 1998 six-month period while average interest-bearing liabilities
increased  $13.8 million during the  comparable  periods.  Non-interest  expense
increased  $108,000,  or 10.2 percent.  This increase was primarily caused by an
increase in  personnel  and an increase in  operational  costs due to growth and
expansion. Income tax expense was $300,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1998, compared to $336,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1997.

          Interest  Income.  Montgomery's  total  interest  income for the three
months ended  December 31, 1998, was $2.3 million,  an increase of $249,000,  or
12.2 percent,  compared to interest  income for the three months ended  December
31,  1997.  This  increase  was  primarily  caused  by an  increase  in  average
interest-earning  assets from $99.4 million for the three months ended  December
31, 1997,  to $112.7  million for the three months ended  December 31, 1998,  an
increase of $13.3  million,  or 13.4  percent  principally  due to loan  growth.
Average loans  increased from $93.0 million for the 1997  three-month  period to
$105.2 million for the 1998 three month period and average investment securities
increased from $35,000 to $687,000 for the respective periods. The average yield
on interest-earning  assets was 8.10 percent for the three months ended December
31, 1998, compared to 8.19 percent for the three months ended December 31, 1997.

          Interest  income for the six months ended  December 31, 1998, was $4.5
million, an increase of $493,000,  or 12.3 percent, from interest income for the
same period in 1997.  Average  interest-earning  assets for the six months ended
December 31, 1998, was $112.4 million compared to $98.4 million for the 1997 six
month period, an increase of $14.0 million, or 14.2 percent,  principally due to
loan growth.  The average yield for the 1998 period was 8.03 percent compared to
8.18 percent for the 1997 period.

          Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended December
31, 1998, was $1.3 million,  which was an increase of $175,000, or 15.6 percent,
from  the  three  months  ended  December  31,  1997.  Average  interest-bearing
liabilities increased $13.1 million, or 16.1 percent, from $81.3 million for the
three months ended  December  31,  1997,  to $94.4  million for the three months
ended December 31, 1998.  The average cost of funds  decreased from 5.50 percent
to 5.48  percent  for the  comparable  periods.  The  average  cost of  deposits
decreased  from 5.43  percent to 5.41  percent  for the  comparable  three-month
periods.  The average  cost of  borrowings  decreased  from 6.18 percent to 5.85
percent for the comparable periods due.

          Interest  expense for the six months ended December 31, 1998, was $2.6
million,  an increase of $339,000,  or 15.3  percent,  from the six months ended
December  31,  1997.  The  average  cost of funds for the 1998  period  was 5.45
percent compared to 5.55 percent for the 1997 period.  Average  interest-bearing
liabilities  increased  from $80.0 million for the six months ended December 31,
1997 to $93.8 million for the 1997 six-month period.

          Provision  for Losses on Loans.  The provision for losses on loans was
$10,000 for the three  months ended  December 31, 1998  compared to no provision
adjustment for the three months ended  December 31, 1997.  During the six months
ended  December  31,  1998, a $25,000  provision  was made  compared to a $3,000
provision in the comparable 1997 six-month period. Provision for loan losses are
made based on the Internal Loan and Asset Review  Policy.  A review is performed
at least  quarterly  to  determine  the  adequacy of the current  balance in the
allowance for losses on loans.  Both the $25,000 and $3,000 provisions were made
primarily due to increased  loan growth.  Loans  delinquent  ninety days or more
were  $852,000  at December  31,  1998,  compared to $724,000 at June 30,  1998.
Non-performing  loans to total loans at December  31,  1998,  were 0.81  percent
compared  to 0.72  percent  at June  30,  1998.  The  allowance  for  losses  to
non-performing  loans was 24.8  percent at December  31,  1998  compared to 25.7
percent at June 30,  1998.  The  allowance  to total  loans was 0.20  percent at
December 31, 1998 and 0.19 percent at June 30, 1998.  Montgomery is  continually
re-evaluating  the  level of the  allowance  for loan  losses  as the  amount of
non-residential mortgage loans and other new loan products are offered.

          Non-Interest  Income.  Montgomery's  other income for the three months
ended  December  31,  1998,  totalled  $9,000  compared to $10,000 for the three
months ended  December 31, 1997,  a decrease of $1,000,  or 10.2  percent.  This
increase was primarily due to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts
of $4,000 and a decrease in net appraisal income of $6,000.

         Other income for the six months ended December 31, 1998, was $23,000, a
decrease of $5,000, or 31.4 percent,  from the comparable 1997 six month period.
During  the six months  ended  December  31,  1998,  service  charges on deposit
accounts  increased  $8,000 and appraisal  income decreased $3,000 from the 1997
six-month period.

         Non-Interest Expense.  Montgomery's other expenses for the three months
ended  December 31, 1998,  totalled  $627,000,  an increase of $60,000,  or 10.7
percent,  from the three months ended  December 31, 1997.  Salaries and employee
benefits  increased  $42,000.  The increase was  primarily due to an increase in
branch office personnel to accommodate growth to prepare for staffing of a fifth
office in Lafayette,  Indiana to be opened during the first calendar  quarter of
1999.  Equipment expense increased $8,000 and data processing  expense increased
$13,000.  Included  in the data  processing  expense  is  $8,100  for Year  2000
testing.  This is part of an  expected  total  expense of $40,500 to perform all
necessary  testing of our service  bureau  provider.  The  increase in equipment
expense and the balance of the data processing expense are generally  reflective
of Montgomery's  growth.  Real estate operations net income for the three months
ended December 31, 1998, was $11,000  compared to $2,000 for the 1997 comparable
period, an decrease of $9,000 due to an increase in net rental income.

         Non-interest  expense for the six months ended  December 31, 1998,  was
$1.2 million compared to $1.1 million, an increase of $108,000, or 10.2 percent,
from the six months  ended  December  31,  1997.  Salary and  employee  benefits
increased $50,000, or 8.4 percent. An increase in personnel due to branch office
growth was the  primary  factor for the  balance of the  increase  in salary and
employee  benefits.  Equipment  expense  increased  $20,000 and data  processing
expense  increased  $21,000.  With the  exception  of $14,000  included  in data
processing  expense for Year 2000 testing,  the balance of these  increases were
primarily due to Montgomery's growth. Net real estate operations generated a net
income for the six months ended December 31, 1998, of $16,000  compared to a net
income of $12,000 for the 1997 comparable period. This increase was primarily

                             Crawfordsville, Indiana


due to an increase in net rental income. Other expenses for the six months ended
December 31, 1998,  were $264,000  compared to $251,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 1997,  an increase of $13,000,  or 5.1  percent.  This  increase is
generally reflective of Montgomery's growth.

       Impact of the Year 2000.  Montgomery has conducted a comprehensive review
of its computer systems to identify  applications  that could be affected by the
"Year 2000"  issue,  and has  developed  an  implementation  plan to address the
issue. The Year 2000 issue is the result of the computer  programs being written
using two  digits  rather  than  four to  define  the  applicable  year.  Any of
Montgomery's  programs  that have  time-sensitive  software may recognize a date
using "00" as the year 1900  rather than the year 2000.  This could  result in a
system  failure or  miscalculations.  Montgomery is utilizing  both internal and
external  resources to identify,  correct or reprogram  and test the systems for
the Year 2000 compliance. Montgomery's data processing is performed primarily by
an outside vender.  Montgomery began the testing phase during the third calendar
quarter of 1998. Core application testing should be completed by March 31, 1999.

       Montgomery  has already  contacted each vendor to request time tables for
year  2000  compliance  and  expected  costs,  if any,  to be  passed  along  to
Montgomery.  To date,  Montgomery  anticipates that its primary service provider
will complete all reprogramming  efforts by March 31, 1999; however,  Montgomery
will  pursue  other  options if it appears  that any  vendors  will be unable to
comply.  In addition to possible  expenses  related to Montgomery's  systems and
those of its  service  providers,  Montgomery  could  incur  losses if Year 2000
problems affect any of its depositors or borrowers.  Such problems could include
delayed loan payments due to Year 2000 problems affecting any of its significant
borrowers  or  impairing  the payroll  systems of large  employers in its market
area.  Because  Montgomery's  loan portfolio is diversified  and its market area
does not depend significantly upon one employer or industry, Montgomery does not
expect any such Year 2000 related difficulties that may affect its depositors or
borrowers to significantly affect its net earnings or cash flows.

       The  Board of  Directors  reviews,  on at least a  quarterly  basis,  the
progress in  addressing  Year 2000 issues.  Montgomery  has estimated a cost and
established  a budget of $75,000  for  testing  and  upgrading  its  systems and
software for Year 2000 compliance.  As of December 31, 1998 Montgomery has spent
approximately  $35,000 in connection with Year 2000  compliance.  Of the $35,000
approximately  $20,000  has  been  capitalized  as  non-compliant  systems  were
replaced  and  upgraded.  Management  does  not  expect  these  costs  to have a
significant impact on its financial position or results of operations,  however,
there can be no assurance that the vendors  systems will be Year 2000 compliant,
consequently  Montgomery  could  incur  incremental  costs to convert to another
vendor or move data processing in house in future periods.

the manner,  time and rate  (cumulative or otherwise) of exercise of such Option
or Right,  and (iv) the  restrictions,  if any, to be placed upon such Option or
Right or upon Shares which may be issued upon  exercise of such Option or Right.
No individual  shall be granted Awards in any calendar year with respect to more
than 25% of the total Shares subject to the Plan.

         Furthermore, at the time of any Award, the Participant shall enter into
an agreement with the Corporation in a form specified by the Committee, agreeing
to the  terms  and  conditions  of the  Award  and  such  other  matters  as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine (the "Option Agreement").

       7. Exercise of Options or Rights.

(a)    Except as  provided  herein,  an Option or Right  granted  under the Plan
       shall be exercisable  during the lifetime of the Participant to whom such
       Option or Right  was  granted  only by such  Participant  and,  except as
       provided in  paragraphs  (c) and (d) of this Section 7, no such Option or
       Right may be exercised unless at the time such Participant exercises such
       Option or Right, such Participant has maintained Continuous Service since
       the date of grant of such Option or Right.

(b)    To exercise an Option or Right under the Plan,  the  Participant  to whom
       such  Option  or Right  was  granted  shall  give  written  notice to the
       Corporation  in form  satisfactory  to the  Committee  (and,  if  partial
       exercises have been permitted by the Committee,  by specifying the number
       of Shares with respect to which such Participant  elects to exercise such
       Option or Right) together with full payment of the Exercise Price, if any
       and to the extent  required.  The date of  exercise  shall be the date on
       which such  notice is  received by the  Corporation.  Payment,  if any is
       required,  shall be made either (i) in cash (including  check, bank draft
       or money order) or (it) by  delivering  (A) Shares  already  owned by the
       Participant  and  having a fair  market  value  equal  to the  applicable
       exercise  price,  such  fair  market  value  to  be  determined  in  such
       appropriate  manner  as may be  provided  by the  Committee  or as may be
       required  in order to comply  with or to conform to  requirements  of any
       applicable  laws or  regulations,  or (B) a combination  of cash and such
       Shares.

(c)    If a  Participant  to whom an Option or Right was granted  shall cease to
       maintain  Continuous Service for any reason (excluding death,  disability
       and  termination  of employment by the  Corporation  or any Affiliate for
       cause),  such Participant may, but only within the period of three months
       immediately  succeeding  such  cessation of Continuous  Service and in no
       event after the  expiration  date of such Option or Right,  exercise such
       Option or Right to the  extent  that such  Participant  was  entitled  to
       exercise  such Option or Right at the date of such  cessation,  provided,
       however,  that such  right of  exercise  after  cessation  of  Continuous
       Service  shall  not  be  available  to a  Participant  if  the  Committee
       otherwise  determines  and so provides in the  applicable  instrument  or
       instruments   evidencing  the  grant  of  such  Option  or  Right.  If  a
       Participant  to whom an  Option  or  Right  was  granted  shall  cease to
       maintain Continuous Service by reason of death or disability then, unless
       the Committee shall have otherwise provided in the instrument  evidencing
<PAGE>
       the grant of an Option or Right,  all Options and Rights  granted and not
       fully exercisable shall become  exercisable in full upon the happening of
       such event and shall remain so exercisable  (i) in the event of death for
       the period  described in paragraph  (d) of this Section 7 and (ii) in the
       event of disability for a period of three months  following such date. If
       the  Continuous  Service of a Participant  to whom an Option or Right was
       granted by the Corporation is terminated for cause,  all rights under any
       Option or Right of such  Participant  shall expire  immediately  upon the
       effective date of such termination.

(d)    In the  event of the  death  of a  Participant  while  in the  Continuous
       Service of the  Corporation  or an  Affiliate  or within the  three-month
       period  refer-red  to in  paragraph  (c) of this Section 7, the person to
       whom any Option or Right held by the Participant at the time of his death
       is transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or in the
       case of an Award  other than an  Incentive  Stock  Option,  pursuant to a
       qualified  domestic relations order, as defined in the Code or Title I of
       ERISA  or  the  rules  thereunder  may,  but  only  to  the  extent  such
       Participant  was entitled to exercise such Option or Right upon his death
       as provided in paragraph (c) above,  exercise such Option or Right at any
       time  within a period  of one year  succeeding  the date of death of such
       Participant,  but in no event later than ten years from the date of grant
       of such Option or Right.  Following the death of any  Participant to whom
       an Option was granted under the Plan, irrespective of whether any Related
       Right shall have  theretofore  been granted to the Participant or whether
       the person  entitled to exercise such Related Right desires to do so, the
       Committee  may, as an  alternative  means of  settlement  of such Option,
       elect to pay to the person to whom such Option is transfer-red by will or
       by the laws of  descent  and  distribution,  or in the case of an  Option
       other than an Incentive  Stock Option,  pursuant to a qualified  domestic
       relations  order, as defined in the Code or Title I of ERISA or the rules
       thereunder, the amount by which the Market Value per Share on the date of
       exercise of such Option shall  exceed the Exercise  Price of such Option,
       multiplied  by the number of Shares with  respect to which such Option is
       properly exercised.  Any such settlement of an Option shall be considered
       an exercise of such Option for all purposes of the Plan.

       8. Incentive  Stock Options.  Incentive Stock Options may be granted only
to  Participants  who are  Employees.  Any provision of the Plan to the contrary
notwithstanding,  (i) no  Incentive  Stock Option shall be granted more than ten
years  from the  date  the Plan is  adopted  by the  Board of  Directors  of the
Corporation  and no Incentive  Stock Option shall be  exercisable  more than ten

Share on the date such  Incentive  Stock Option is granted,  (iii) any Incentive

of such Incentive  Stock Option is at least I 10 percent of the Market Value per
Share at the date of grant and such  Incentive  Stock Option is not  exercisable
after the expiration of five years from the date such Incentive  Stock Option is
granted,  and (v) the  aggregate  Market  Value  (determined  as of the time any

       9. Stock  Appreciation  Rights A Stock Appreciation Right shall, upon its
exercise,  entitle the  Participant  to whom such Stock  Appreciation  Right was
granted to  receive a number of Shares or cash or  combination  thereof,  as the
Committee in its discretion shall determine, the aggregate value of which (i.e.,
the sum of the  amount of cash  and/or  Market  Value of such  Shares on date of
exercise)  shall  equal (as nearly as  possible,  it being  understood  that the
Corporation  shall not  issue any  fractional  shares)  the  amount by which the
Market  Value per Share on the date of such  exercise  shall exceed the Exercise
Price of such Stock Appreciation Right,  multiplied by the number of Shares with
respect of which such Stock  Appreciation  Right  shall have been  exercised.  A
Stock  Appreciation  Right  may be  Related  to an  Option  or  may  be  granted
independently  of any  Option as the  Committee  shall from time to time in each
case determine.  At the time of grant of an Option the Committee shall determine
whether and to what extent a Related Stock  Appreciation  Right shall be granted
with respect thereto, provided, however, and notwithstanding any other provision
of the Plan,  that if the  Related  Option is an  Incentive  Stock  Option,  the
Related  Stock  Appreciation  Right  shall  satisfy  all  the  restrictions  and
limitations of Section 8 hereof as if such Related Stock Appreciation Right were
an Incentive  Stock Option and as if other rights which are Related to Incentive
Stock Options were  Incentive  Stock Options.  In the case of a Related  Option,
such Related  Option shall cease to be  exercisable  to the extent of the Shares
with respect to which the Related Stock Appreciation  Right was exercised.  Upon
the exercise or termination of a Related Option,  any Related Stock Appreciation
Right  shall  terminate  to the extent of the Shares  with  respect to which the
Related Option was exercised or terminated.

       10. Limited Stock Appreciation  Rights. At the time of grant of an Option
or Stock  Appreciation  Right to any Participant,  the Committee shall have full
and  complete  authority  and  discretion  to also grant to such  Participant  a
Limited  Stock  Appreciation  Right  which is  Related  to such  Option or Stock
Appreciation Right, provided, however and notwithstanding any other provision of
the Plan, that if the Related Option is an Incentive  Stock Option,  the Related
Limited  Stock  Appreciation  Right  shall  satisfy  all  the  restrictions  and
limitations  of Section 8 hereof as if such Related  Limited Stock  Appreciation
Right  were an  Incentive  Stock  Option  and as if all other  Rights  which are
Related to Incentive Stock Options were Incentive Stock Options. Notwithstanding
any other  provision of the Plan, a Limited  Stock  Appreciation  Right shall be
exercisable only during the period beginning on the first day following the date
of expiration of any "offer" (as such term is hereinafter defined) and ending on
the forty-fifth day following such date.

       A Limited Stock Appreciation Right shall, upon its exercise,  entitle the
Participant to whom such Limited Stock Appreciation Right was granted to receive
an amount of cash equal to the  amount by which the "Offer  Price per Share" (as
such  term is  hereinafter  defined)  or the  Market  Value  on the date of such
exercise,  as shall have been provided by the Committee in its discretion at the
time  of  grant,   shall  exceed  the  Exercise  Price  of  such  Limited  Stock
Appreciation  Right,  multiplied  by the number of Shares with  respect to which
such  Limited  Stock  Appreciation  Right  shall have been  exercised.  Upon the
exercise  of a Limited  Stock  Appreciation  Right,  any Related  Option  and/or
Related Stock  Appreciation Right shall cease to be exercisable to the extent of
the Shares  with  respect to which such  Limited  Stock  Appreciation  Right was
exercised. Upon the exercise or termination of a Related Option or Related Stock
Appreciation Right, any Related Limited Stock Appreciation Right shall terminate
to the extent of the Shares with respect to which such Related Option or Related
Stock Appreciation Right was exercised or terminated.
<PAGE>
       For the  purposes  of this  Section 10, the term  "Offer"  shall mean any
tender  offer  or  exchange  offer  for  Shares  other  than  one  made  by  the
Corporation,  provided that the  corporation,  person or other entity making the
offer acquires  pursuant to such offer either (i) 25% of the Shares  outstanding
immediately  prior to the  commencement of such offer or (ii) a number of Shares
which,  together with all other Shares  acquired in any tender offer or exchange
offer (other than one made by the  Corporation)  which expired within sixty days
of the  expiration  date of the  offer in  question,  equals  25% of the  Shares
outstanding  immediately prior to the commencement of the offer in question. The
term "Offer  Price per Share" as used in this  Section 10 shall mean the highest
price per Share paid in any Offer  which  Offer is in effect any time during the
period  beginning on the sixtieth day prior to the date on which a Limited Stock
Appreciation  Right is  exercised  and ending on the date on which such  Limited
Stock Appreciation Right is exercised. Any securities or property which are part
or all of the  consideration  paid for  Shares in the  Offer  shall be valued in
determining the Offer Price per Share at the higher of (A) the valuation  placed
on such securities or property by the corporation, person or other entity making
such Offer or (B) the  valuation  placed on such  securities  or property by the
Committee.

       11.  Adjustments  Upon  Changes  in  Capitalization.  In the event of any
change in the outstanding Shares subsequent to the effective date of the Plan by
reason of any  reorganization,  recapitalization,  stock split,  stock dividend,
combination or exchange of shares,  merger,  consolidation  or any change in the
corporate  structure or Shares of the Corporation,  the maximum aggregate number
and class of shares as to which  Awards  may be  granted  under the Plan and the
number,  class  and  exercise  price of  shares  with  respect  to which  Awards
theretofore have been granted under the Plan shall be appropriately  adjusted by
the Committee, whose determination shall be conclusive.

       12.  Effect  of Merge . In the  event  of any  merger,  consolidation  or
combination  of  the  Corporation   (other  than  a  merger,   consolidation  or
combination in which the Corporation is the continuing entity and which does not
result in the outstanding Shares being converted into or exchanged for different
securities,  cash or other property,  or any combination  thereof) pursuant to a
plan or agreement  the terms of which are binding upon all  stockholders  of the
Corporation (except to the extent that dissenting  stockholders may be entitled,
under  statutory  provisions  or  provisions  contained  in the  certificate  or
articles  of  incorporation,  to receive  the  appraised  or fair value of their
holdings),  any  Participant  to whom an Option or Right has been granted  shall
have the right  (subject to the  provisions  of the Plan and any  limitation  or
vesting  period  applicable to such Option or Right),  thereafter and during the
term of each such Option or Right,  to receive upon  exercise of any such Option
or Right an amount  equal to the excess of the fair market  value on the date of
such exercise of the securities, cash or other property, or combination thereof,
receivable upon such merger,  consolidation or combination in respect of a Share
over the  Exercise  Price of such Right or Option,  multiplied  by the number of
Shares with  respect to which such  Option or Right  shall have been  exercised.
Such  amount may be payable  fully in cash,  fully in one or more of the kind or
kinds of property  payable in such  merger,  consolidation  or  combination,  or
partly in cash and partly in one or more of such kind or kinds of property,  all
in the discretion of the Committee.

         13.  Effect of Change in Control.  Each of the events  specified in the
following clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 13 shall be deemed a "change
of  control":  (i) any third  person,  including a "group" as defined in Section
13(d)(3) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  shall become the  beneficial
owner of shares of the Corporation or the Association  with respect to which 25%
<PAGE>
or more of the total  number of votes for the election of the Board of Directors
of the  Corporation or the  Association  may be cast, (ii) as a result of, or in
connection with, any cash tender offer, exchange offer, merger or other business
combination,  sale of  assets  or  contested  election,  or  combination  of the
foregoing,  the persons who were directors of the Corporation or the Association
shall  cease  to  constitute  a  majority  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of the
Corporation or the  Association,  or (iii) the  shareholders  of the Corporation
shall  approve an  agreement  providing  either for a  transaction  in which the
Corporation will cease to be an independent  publicly owned entity or for a sale
or other  disposition of all or substantially  all the assets of the Corporation
or the  Association.  If a tender offer or exchange offer for Shares (other than
such  an  offer  by the  Corporation)  is  commenced,  or if  any of the  events
specified in clauses (i) through  (iii) above shall occur,  unless the Committee
shall have  otherwise  provided  in the  instrument  evidencing  the grant of an
Option or Stock Appreciation  Right, all Options and Stock  Appreciation  Rights
theretofore  granted and not fully exercisable shall become  exercisable in full
upon the  happening of such event;  provided,  however,  that no Option or Stock
Appreciation  Right which has previously been exercised or otherwise  terminated
shall become exercisable.

         14. Assignments and Transfers.  No Award nor any right or interest of a
Participant under the Plan in any instrument evidencing any Award under the Plan
may be assigned,  encumbered or transferred except, in the event of the death of
a Participant, by will or the laws of descent and distribution or in the case of
Awards  other than  Incentive  Stock  Options  pursuant to a qualified  domestic
relations  order,  as  defined  in the Code or  Title I of  ERISA  or the  rules
thereunder.

         15.  Employee  Rights Under the Plan. No director,  advisory  director,
director  emeritus,  officer or employee  shall have a right to be selected as a
Participant nor, having been so selected,  to be selected again as a Participant
and no director,  advisory directory,  director emeritus,  officer,  employee or
other person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan
or  under  any  other  incentive  or  similar  plan  of the  Corporation  or any
Affiliate.  Neither the Plan nor any action taken  thereunder shall be construed
as giving any employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Corporation
or any Affiliate.

         16. Delivery and Registration of Stock, The Corporation's obligation to
deliver Shares with respect to an Award shall, if the Committee so requests,  be
conditioned upon the receipt of a representation as to the investment  intention
of the Participant to whom Such Shares are to be delivered,  in such form as the
Committee  shall  deter-mine  to be  necessary  or  advisable to comply with the
provisions of the Securities  Act of 1933 or any other  Federal,  state or local
securities legislation or regulation. It may be provided that any representation
requirement shall become  inoperative upon a registration of the Shares or other
action  eliminating the necessity of such  representation  under such Securities
Act or other securities  legislation.  The Corporation  shall not be required to
deliver any Shares  under the Plan prior to (i) the  admission of such shares to
listing  on any  stock  exchange  or other  system on which  Shares  may then be
listed.  and (ii) the completion of such registration or other  qualification of
such Shares under any state or Federal law, rule or regulation, as the Committee
shall determine to be necessary or advisable.

         17.  Withholding  Tax. The  Corporation  shall have the right to deduct
from all amounts  paid in cash with respect to the exercise of a Right under the
Plan  any  taxes  required  by law to be  withheld  with  respect  to such  cash
payments.  Where a  Participant  or other  person is entitled to receive  Shares
<PAGE>
pursuant  to the  exercise  of an Option  or Right  pursuant  to the  Plan,  the
Corporation shall have the right to require the Participant or such other person
to pay the Corporation the amount of any taxes which the Corporation is required
to  withhold  with  respect to such  Shares,  and may,  in its sole  discretion,
withhold sufficient Shares to cover the amount of taxes which the Corporation is
required to withhold.

         18. Amendment or Termination. The Board of Directors of the Corporation
may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time, but
(except as provided in Section I I hereof) no  amendment  shall be made  without
approval of the  stockholders  of the  Corporation  which  shall (i)  materially
increase the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which Awards may be made
under the Plan,  (ii) materially  change the  requirements as to eligibility for
participation  in the Plan or (iii)  change  the class of  persons  eligible  to
participate in the Plan; provided,  however, that no such amendment,  suspension
or termination shall impair the rights of any Participant,  without his consent,
in any Award theretofore made pursuant to the Plan.

         19.  Effective Date and Term of Plan.  The Plan shall become  effective
upon its ratification by stockholders of the  Corporation.  It shall continue in
effect for a term of ten years unless sooner terminated under Section 17 hereof.

Awards and, in addition to the terms and conditions  contained in paragraphs (a)
through (f) of this Section 3, to provide such other terms and conditions (which
need not be identical  among  Participants)  in respect of such Awards,  and the
vesting thereof, as the Committee shall determine.

(a)    At the  time  of an  award  of  Restricted  Stock,  the  Committee  shall
       establish for each  Participant a Restricted  Period,  during which or at
       the expiration of which,  as the Committee shall determine and provide in

<PAGE>
(b)    Except  as  provided  in  Section 5 hereof,  if a  Participant  ceases to
       maintain  Continuous  Service for any reason (other than death,  total or
       partial  disability  or  retirement  at  age  65 or  later),  unless  the
       Committee  shall  otherwise  determine,  all Shares of  Restricted  Stock
       theretofore  awarded  to such  Participant  and which at the time of such
       termination of Continuous Service are subject to the restrictions imposed
       by  paragraph  (a) of this  Section  3 shall  upon  such  termination  of

             (including  forfeiture)  contained  in  the  1997  Recognition  and
             Retention Plan of Montgomery Financial Corporation.  Copies of such
             Plan are on file in the  offices  of the  Secretary  of  Montgomery
             Financial  Corporation,  119  East  Main  Street,   Crawfordsville,
             Indiana 47933.

(d)    At the time of any Award,  the Participant  shall enter into an Agreement
       with the  Corporation in a form  specified by the Committee,  agreeing to
       the terms and  conditions  of the Award  and such  other  matters  as the
       Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine (the "Restricted Stock
       Agreement").

(e)    At the time of an award of shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee may,
       in its  discretion,  determine  that the  payment to the  Participant  of
       dividends declared or paid on such shares, or specified portions thereof,
       by  the   Corporation   shall  be  deferred  until  the  lapsing  of  the
       restrictions  imposed under  paragraph (a) of this Section 3 and shall be
       held by the  Corporation  for the account of the  Participant  until such
       time. In the event of such  deferral,  there shall be credited at the end
       of each year (or portion  thereof)  interest on the amount of the account
       at the beginning of the year at a rate per annum as the Committee, in its
       discretion,  may  determine  In the  event  of such  deferral,  upon  the
       forfeiture  of such shares  under  paragraph  (b) of this  Section 3, all
       deferred dividends and interest thereon shall be forfeited.

(f)    At the  lapsing  of the  restrictions  imposed by  paragraph  (a) of this
       Section 3, the Corporation shall deliver to the Participant (or where the
       relevant provision of paragraph (b) of this Section 3 applies in the case
       of a deceased Participant,  to his legal  representative,  beneficiary or
       heir) the  certificate(s)  and stock power  deposited with it pursuant to
       paragraph  (c) of this  Section  3 and  the  Shares  represented  by such
       certificate(s) shall be free of the restrictions referred to in paragraph
       (a) of this Section 3.

       4. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. In the event of any change
in the outstanding Shares subsequent to the effective date of the Plan by reason
of  any   reorganization,   recapitalization,   stock  split,   stock  dividend,
combination or exchange of shares,  merger,  consolidation  or any change in the
<PAGE>
corporate  structure or Shares of the Corporation,  the maximum aggregate number
and class of shares as to which  Awards  may be  granted  under the Plan and the
number and class of shares with  respect to which Awards  theretofore  have been
granted under the Plan shall be appropriately  adjusted by the Committee,  whose
determination  shall be  conclusive.  Any  shares  of stock or other  securities
received as a result of any of the  foregoing by a  Participant  with respect to
Restricted   Stock   shall  be  subject  to  the  same   restrictions   and  the
certificate(s)  or other  instruments  representing or evidencing such shares or
securities  shall be legended and deposited  with the  Corporation in the manner
provided in Section 3 hereof.

       5.  Effect of Change in  Control.  Each of the  events  specified  in the
following  clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 5 shall be deemed a "change
of  control":  (i) any third  person,  including a "group" as defined in Section
13(d)(3) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  shall become the  beneficial
owner of shares of the Corporation or the Association  with respect to which 25%
or more of the total  number of votes may be cast for the  election of the Board
of Directors of the Corporation or the  Association,  (ii) as a result of, or in
connection  with, any cash tender offer,  merger or other  business  combination
sale of assets or contested  election,  or  combination  of the  foregoing,  the
persons who were directors of the Corporation or the Association  shall cease to
constitute  a  majority  of the Board of  Directors  of the  Corporation  or the
Association,  or (iii) the  shareholders  of the  Corporation  shall  approve an
agreement providing either for a transaction in which the Corporation will cease
to be an independent publicly owned entity or for a sale or other disposition of
all or substantially  all the assets of the Corporation or the  Association.  If
the  Continuous  Service of any  Participant  is  involuntarily  terminated  for
whatever  reason,  at any time within  twelve  months after a change in control,
unless the Committee shall have otherwise  provided,  any Restricted Period with
respect to Restricted Stock theretofore  awarded to such Participant shall lapse
upon such  termination  and all Shares awarded as Restricted  Stock shall become
fully vested in the Participant to whom such Shares were awarded.

       6. Assignments and Transfers.  During the Restricted Period, no Award nor
any  right  or  interest  of a  Participant  under  the  Plan in any  instrument
evidencing  any Award under the Plan may be assigned,  encumbered or transferred
except  (i) in the event of the death of a  Participant,  by will or the laws of
descent and  distribution,  or (ii) pursuant to a qualified  domestic  relations
order as defined in the Code or Title I of ERISA or the rules thereunder.

       7.  Administration.  The  Plan  shall  be  administered  by  a  Committee
consisting  of two or  more  members,  each  of  whom  shall  be a  Non-Employee
Director.  The  members  of the  Committee  shall be  appointed  by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation. Except as limited by the express provisions of the
Plan, the Committee shall have sole and complete  authority and  discretion,  to
(i) select Participants and grant Awards; (ii) determine the number of Shares to
be subject to types of Awards  generally,  as well as individual  Awards granted
under the Plan; (Ili) determine the terms and conditions upon which Awards shall
be granted  under the Plan;  (iv)  prescribe  the form and terms of  instruments
evidencing such grants;  and (v) establish from time to time regulations for the
administration  of the Plan,  interpret  the Plan,  and make all  determinations
deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

         A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum,  and the acts of
a majority of the  members  present at any meeting at which a quorum is present,
or acts  approved in writing by a majority of the  Committee  without a meeting,
shall be acts of the Committee.

         8. Shares  Subject to Plan.  Subject to  adjustment by the operation of
Section 4 hereof,  the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Awards may
be made  under the Plan  shall be an amount  which,  when added to the number of
Shares under the 1995 Plan, shall equal 4% of the total Shares  outstanding upon
completion  of the  Conversion  and  Reorganization.  The Shares with respect to
which  Awards may be made under the Plan may be either  authorized  and unissued
Shares or issued Shares heretofore or hereafter  reacquired and held as treasury
Shares.  An Award shall not be  considered to have been made under the Plan with
respect to  Restricted  Stock which is  forfeited  and new Awards may be granted
under the Plan with respect to the number of Shares as to which such  forfeiture
has occurred.

         The Corporation's obligation to deliver Shares with respect to an Award
shall,  if the  Committee  so  requests,  be  conditioned  upon the receipt of a
representation  as to the investment  intention of the  Participant to whom such
Shares are to be delivered,  in such form as the Committee shall determine to be
necessary or advisable to comply with the  provisions of the  Securities  Act of
1933 or any other Federal,  state or local securities legislation or regulation.
It may be provided that any representation  requirement shall become inoperative
upon a registration  of the Shares or other action  eliminating the necessity of
such representation  under such Securities Act or other securities  legislation.
The Corporation shall not be required to deliver any Shares under the Plan prior
to (I) the  admission  of such shares to listing on any stock  exchange on which
Shares may then be listed, and (ii) the completion of such registration or other
qualification of such Shares under any state or Federal law, rule or regulation,
as the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable.

         9.  Employee  Rights Under the Plan.  No director,  director  emeritus,
advisory  director,  officer or employee  shall have a right to be selected as a
Participant nor, having been so selected,  to be selected again as a Participant
and no director, officer, employee or other person shall have any claim or right
to be granted an Award  under the Plan or under any other  incentive  or similar
plan of the Corporation or any Affiliate.  Neither the Plan nor any action taken
thereunder  shall be construed as giving any officer or employee any fight to be
retained in the employ of the Corporation, the Association or any Affiliate.

         10. Withholding Tax. Upon the termination of the Restricted Period with
respect to any shares of Restricted Stock (or at such earlier time, if any, that
an election is made by the  Participant  under Section 83(b) of the Code, or any
successor  provision  thereto,  to include  the value of such  shares in taxable
income), the Corporation may, in its sole discretion,  withhold from any payment
or distribution  made under this Plan sufficient  Shares or withhold  sufficient
cash to cover any applicable  withholding and employment  taxes. The Corporation
shall have the right to deduct from all dividends paid with respect to shares of
Restricted  Stock the amount of any taxes which the  Corporation  is required to
withhold with respect to such dividend  payments.  No discretion or choice shall
be conferred upon any Participant with respect to the form,  timing or method of
any such tax withholding.

         11.  Amendment or Termination The Board of Directors of the Corporation
may amend,  suspend or  terminate  the Plan or any portion  thereof at any time;
provided,  however,  that no such  amendment,  suspension or  termination  shall
impair  the  rights  of any  Participant,  without  his  consent,  in any  Award
theretofore made pursuant to the Plan.

       12. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become  effective upon its  ratification
by the stockholders of the  Corporation.  It shall continue in effect for a term
of ten years unless sooner terminated under Section 11 hereof.
