ITEM 6.        INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

      Directors and officers of the Registrant are indemnified and held harmless
against  liability to the fullest  extent  permissible  by the Indiana  Business
Corporation Law as it currently exists or as it may be amended provided any such
amendment provides broader indemnification provisions than currently exists.

      In accordance with the Indiana  Business  Corporation Law (being Title 23,
Article  1  Chapter  37 of the  Indiana  Code),  the  Registrant's  Articles  of
Incorporation provide as follows:

ARTICLE VII

                                INDEMNIFICATION

      SECTION 7.01.  GENERAL  PROVISIONS.  The corporation shall, to the fullest
extent to which it is empowered to do so by the Indiana Business Corporation Law
or any other  applicable  laws,  as from time to time in effect,  indemnify  any
person  who was or is a  party,  or is  threatened  to be made a  party,  to any
threatened,  pending or completed  action,  suit or  proceeding,  whether civil,
criminal,  administrative  or investigative  and whether formal or informal,  by
reason of the fact that he is or was a  director,  officer  or  employee  of the
corporation,  or who, while serving as such director, officer or employee of the
corporation,  is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
officer,   partner,   trustee,   employee  or  agent  of  another   corporation,
partnership,  joint venture,  trust,  employee benefit plan or other enterprise,
whether  for  profit  or not,  against  expenses  (including  attorneys'  fees),
judgments,  settlements,  penalties and fines  (including  excise taxes assessed
with respect to employee  benefit plans) actually or reasonably  incurred by him
in accordance  with such action,  suit or proceeding,  if he acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably  believed,  in the case of conduct in his official
capacity,  was in the best interest of the corporation,  and in all other cases,
was not opposed to the best  interests of the  corporation,  and with respect to
any criminal action or proceeding, he either had reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was lawful or no  reasonable  cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement
or conviction,  or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,  shall not,
of itself,  create a  presumption  that the  person did not meet the  prescribed
standard of conduct.


                                        3

<PAGE> 4



      SECTION 7.02.  INDEMNIFICATION  AUTHORIZED. To the extent that a director,
officer or employee of the  corporation  has been  successful,  on the merits or
otherwise,  in the  defense of any  action,  suit or  proceeding  referred to in
Section 7.01 of this  Article,  or in the defense of any claim,  issue or matter
therein, the corporation shall indemnify such person against expenses (including
attorneys'  fees) actually and reasonably  incurred by such person in connection
therewith.  Any other indemnification under Section 7.01 of this Article (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the  corporation  only as authorized in the
specific  case,  upon a  determination  that  indemnification  of the  director,
officer or employee is permissible in the  circumstances  because he has met the
applicable  standard of  conduct.  Such  determination  shall be made (a) by the
board of directors by a majority  vote of a quorum  consisting  of directors who
were not at the time parties to such  action,  suit or  proceeding;  or (b) if a
quorum  cannot be  obtained  under  subdivision  (a),  by a  majority  vote of a
committee  duly  designated  by the board of  directors  (in  which  designation
directors  who are parties may  participate),  consisting  solely of two or more
directors not at the time parties to such action, suit or proceeding;  or (c) by
special legal  counsel:  (I) selected by the board of directors or its committee
in the manner  prescribed in subdivision  (a) or (b), or (ii) if a quorum of the
board of  directors  cannot be obtained  under  subdivision  (a) and a committee
cannot be designated under  subdivision (b),  selected by a majority vote of the
full board of  directors  (in which  selection  directors  who are  parties  may
participate);  or (d) by  stockholders,  but shares  owned by or voted under the
control  of  directors  who are at the  time  parties  to such  action,  suit or
proceeding may not be voted on the determination.

      Authorization of  indemnification  and evaluation as to  reasonableness of
expenses  shall  be  made  in  the  same  manner  as  the   determination   that
indemnification  is  permissible,  except that if the  determination  is made by
special legal counsel,  authorization  of  indemnification  and evaluation as to
reasonableness  of expenses shall be made by those entitled under subsection (c)
to select counsel.

      SECTION 7.03.  DEFINITION OF GOOD FAITH. For purposes of any determination
under  Section 7.01 of this  Article,  a person shall be deemed to have acted in
good faith and to have  otherwise  met the  applicable  standard  of conduct set
forth in Section 7.01 if his action is based on information,  opinions, reports,
or  statements,  including  financial  statements and other  financial  data, if
prepared  or  presented  by  (a)  one  or  more  officers  or  employees  of the
corporation or other  enterprise whom he reasonably  believes to be reliable and
competent  in the matters  presented;  (b) legal  counsel,  public  accountants,
appraisers or other persons as to matters he reasonably  believes are within the
person's  professional or expert competence;  or (c) a committee of the board of
directors of the corporation or another  enterprise of which the person is not a
member if he  reasonably  believes the  committee  merits  confidence.  The term
"another  enterprise"  as  used  in this  Section  7.03  shall  mean  any  other
corporation or any partnership,  joint venture,  trust, employee benefit plan or
other  enterprise  of which such  person is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director,  officer,  partner,  trustee,  employee or agent. The
provisions  of this Section 7.03 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit
in any way the  circumstances  in which a person  may be  deemed to have met the
applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 7.01 of this Article.

      SECTION 7.04.  ADVANCEMENT  OF EXPENSES.  Expenses  incurred in connection
with  any  civil  or  criminal  action,  suit or  proceeding  may be paid for or
reimbursed by the corporation in advance

                                        4

<PAGE> 5


of the final  disposition of such action,  suit or proceeding,  as authorized in
the specific case in the same manner  described in Section 7.02 of this Article,
upon receipt of a written  affirmation  of the  director,  officer or employee's
good faith belief that he has met the  standard of conduct  described in Section
7.01 of this Article and upon receipt of a written  undertaking on behalf of the
director,  officer or employee to repay such  amount if it shall  ultimately  be
determined  that he did not meet  the  standard  of  conduct  set  forth in this
Article,  and a determination  is made that the facts then known to those making
the determination would not preclude indemnification under this Article.

      SECTION  7.05.  NON-EXCLUSIVITY.  The  indemnification  provided  by  this
Article  shall not be  deemed  exclusive  of any other  rights to which a person
seeking  indemnification  may be entitled under these Articles of Incorporation,
the  corporation's   Bylaws,  any  resolution  of  the  board  of  directors  or
stockholders,  any other  authorization,  whenever  adopted,  after notice, by a
majority vote of all voting stock then outstanding,  or any contract, both as to
action in his  official  capacity  and as to action in  another  capacity  while
holding  such office,  and shall  continue as to a person who has ceased to be a
director,  officer or  employee,  and shall  inure to the  benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of such a person.

      SECTION  7.06.  VESTMENT  OF  RIGHTS.  The  right  of  any  individual  to
indemnification  under  this  Article  shall vest at the time of  occurrence  or
performance  of any event,  act or omission  giving rise to any action,  suit or
proceeding  of the nature  referred to in Section 7.01 of this Article and, once
vested,  shall  not later be  impaired  as a result  of any  amendment,  repeal,
alteration  or  other   modification   of  any  or  all  of  these   provisions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the indemnification  afforded under this Article
shall be  applicable  to all alleged  prior acts or omissions of any  individual
seeking indemnification hereunder, regardless of the fact that such alleged acts
or omissions  may have occurred  prior to the adoption of this  Article.  To the
extent  such  prior  acts or  omissions  cannot be deemed to be  covered by this
Article, the right of any individual to indemnification shall be governed by the
indemnification  provisions  in  effect  at the  time  of  such  prior  acts  or
omissions.

      SECTION  7.07.  INSURANCE.  The  corporation  may  purchase  and  maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent  of  the  corporation,  or who is or was  serving  at the  request  of the
corporation  as a  director,  officer,  partner,  trustee,  employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other  enterprise,  against any  liability  asserted  against or incurred by the
individual  in that  capacity  or  arising  from the  individual's  status  as a
director,  officer, employee or agent, whether or not the corporation would have
power to indemnify the individual against the same liability under this Article.

      SECTION 7.08.  OTHER DEFINITIONS.

      For  purposes of this  Article,  serving an employee  benefit  plan at the
request of the corporation  shall include any service as a director,  officer or
employee of the  corporation  which imposes  duties on, or involves  services by
such director, officer or employee with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
participants, or beneficiaries. A person who acted in good faith and in a manner
he  reasonably  believed to be in the best  interests  of the  participants  and
beneficiaries of an

                                        5

<PAGE> 6



employee  benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to
the best interest of the corporation" referred to in this Article.

      For purposes of this Article,  "party"  includes any  individual who is or
was a plaintiff, defendant or respondent in any action, suit or proceeding.

      For purposes of this Article,  "official capacity," when used with respect
to a director,  shall mean the office of director of the  corporation;  and when
used with respect to an individual other than a director,  shall mean the office
in the corporation held by the officer or the employment or agency  relationship
undertaking  by the  employee or agent on behalf of the  corporation.  "Official
capacity" does not include service for any other foreign or domestic corporation
or any  partnership,  joint  venture,  trust,  employee  benefit  plan, or other
enterprise,  whether for profit or not,  except as set forth in Section  7.01 of
this Article.

      SECTION 7.09.  BUSINESS  EXPENSES.  Any payments  made to any  indemnified
party  under this  Article  under any other  right of  indemnification  shall be
deemed to be an ordinary and necessary business expense of the corporation,  and
payment thereof shall not subject any person responsible for the payment, or the
board of directors, to any action for corporate waste or to any similar action.

      The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

      (1)To file,  during any period in which  offers or sales are being made, a
         post-effective  amendment  to this  registration  statement  unless the

      (2)That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities

         Act, each filing of the Registrant's  annual report pursuant to Section
         13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in
         the  registration  statement  shall be deemed to be a new  registration
         statement relating to the securities offered therein,  and the offering
         of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
         fide offering thereof.

Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees,  officers and  controlling  persons of
the  Registrant  pursuant  to  the  foregoing  provisions,   or  otherwise,  the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such  indemnification
is  against  public  policy  as  expressed  in  such  Act  and  is,   therefore,
unenforceable.  In the  event  that a claim  for  indemnification  against  such
liabilities  (other than the payment by the  Registrant of expenses  incurred or
paid by a  trustee,  officer  or  controlling  person of the  Registrant  in the
successful  defense of any  action,  suit or  proceeding)  is  asserted  by such
trustee,  officer or controlling  person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as  expressed in such Act will be governed by the final  adjudication  of
such issue.

      (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Committee.  Subject to the terms
of the Plan and  applicable  law,  and in addition to other  express  powers and
authorizations  conferred on the Committee by the Plan, the Committee shall have
full power and authority to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the type

suspended;  (vi) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances
cash, Shares, other securities,  other Awards, other property, and other amounts

Persons,  including the Bank, and Participant,  any holder or beneficiary of any
Award, any shareholder and any Employee.

SECTION 4.  SHARES AVAILABLE FOR AWARDS.

      (a) SHARES  AVAILABLE.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4(b),
the number of Shares with respect to which Awards may be granted  under the Plan
shall be 20,000. If, after the effective date of the Plan, any Shares covered by
an Award  granted  under  the  Plan,  or to which  such an  Award  relates,  are
forfeited,  or if an Award  otherwise  terminates  or is  canceled  without  the
delivery  of Shares,  then the Shares  covered by such  Award,  or to which such
Award relates,  or the number of Shares otherwise  counted against the aggregate
number of Shares with respect to which  Awards may be granted,  to the extent of
any such settlement, forfeiture, termination or cancellation, shall again be, or
shall become,  Shares with respect to which Awards may be granted, to the extent
permissible  under Rule 16b-3. In the event that any Option is exercised through
the delivery of Shares, the number of Shares available for Awards under the plan
shall  be  increased  by  the  number  of  Shares  surrendered,  to  the  extent
permissible under Rule 16b-3.

      (b)  ADJUSTMENTS.  In the event that any  dividend  or other  distribution
(whether in the form of cash,  Shares,  other  securities,  or other  property),
recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger,

                                        3

<PAGE> 5



consolidation,  split-up,  spin-off,  combination,  repurchase,  or  exchange of
Shares or other securities of the Bank,  issuance of warrants or other rights to
purchase  Shares or other  securities of the Bank,  or other  similar  corporate
transaction  or event affects the Shares such that an adjustment is necessary in
order to prevent  dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential  benefits
intended  to be  made  available  under  the  Plan,  then  the  Committee  shall
proportionately  adjust any or all (as necessary) of (i) the number of Shares or
other  securities  of the  Bank (or  number  and  kind of  other  securities  or
property) with respect to which Awards may be granted, (ii) the number of Shares
or other  securities  of the Bank (or  number  and kind of other  securities  or
property) subject to outstanding  Awards,  and (iii) the grant or exercise price
with respect to any Award;  provided,  in each case, that with respect to Awards
of Incentive Stock Option no such  adjustment  shall be authorized to the extent
that such  authority  would cause the Plan to violate  Section  422(b)(1) of the
Code, as from time to time amended. In the event that the Bank converts to stock
form   through  the   formation  of  a  stock   holding   company  or  otherwise
("Conversion"),  other than through a merger conversion, any Options outstanding
pursuant to an Award,  to the extent such Options are not exercised prior to the
Conversion,  shall be converted  into options for common stock of the  successor
stock  holding  company or bank with  appropriate  adjustments  to the number of
shares or price of such option; provided,  however, that, with respect to Awards
of Incentive  Stock Options,  such exchange and any  adjustments  related to the
exchange  shall  be  authorized  only  to the  extent  consistent  with  Section
422(b)(1) of the Code, as from time to time amended.

      (c)  SOURCES OF  SHARES.  Any Shares  delivered  pursuant  to an Award may
consist,  in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued  Shares or of treasury
Shares.

SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY. An Employee,  including any officer or employee-director
of the  Bank,  who is not a member of the  Committee,  shall be  eligible  to be
designated a Participant.

SECTION 6.  OPTIONS

      (a) GRANT. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have
sole and complete  authority to determine the Employees to whom Options shall be
granted,  the number of Shares to be covered by each  Option,  the option  price
therefor and the  conditions and  limitations  applicable to the exercise of the
option. The Committee shall have the authority to grant Incentive Stock Options,
or to grant  Non-Qualified  Stock Options, or to grant both types of options. In
such case of Incentive  Stock  Options,  the terms and conditions of such grants
shall be subject to and comply with such rules as may be  prescribed  by Section
422 of the Code, as from time to time amended, and any regulations  implementing
such statute,  including  without  limitation,  the requirements of Code Section
422(d),  which  limits  the  aggregate  fair  market  value of  Shares  of which
Incentive  Stock  Options are  exercisable  for the first time to  $100,000  per
calendar year.  Each provision of the Plan and of each written option  agreement
relating to an Option designated an Incentive Stock Option shall be construed so
that such Option qualifies as an Incentive Stock Option,  and any provision that
cannot be so construed shall be disregarded.

      (b) EXERCISE  PRICE.  The Committee  shall establish the exercise price at
the time each Option is granted,  which price shall not be less than 100% of the
per Share Fair Market Value on the date of grant.  Notwithstanding any provision
contained herein,  in the case of an Incentive Stock Option,  the exercise price
at the time such  Incentive  Stock Option is granted to any Employee who, at the
time of such grant, is a Ten Percent Stockholder, shall not be less than 110% of
the per Share Fair Market Value on the date of grant.


                                        4

<PAGE> 6



      (c) EXERCISE. Each Option shall be exercisable at such time and subject to
such terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its sole discretion,  specify
in the applicable  Award  Agreement or thereafter;  provided,  in the case of an
Incentive  Stock Option,  a Participant  may not exercise such  Incentive  Stock
Option  after the  earlier of (i) the date which is ten years (five years in the
case of a Participant who is a Ten Percent  Stockholder) on which such Incentive
Stock Option is granted,  or (ii) the date which is three months  (twelve months
in the case of a  Participant  who  becomes  disabled,  as  defined  in  Section
22(e)(3)  of the Code,  or who dies)  after the date on which he ceases to be an
employee of the Bank. The Committee may impose such  conditions  with respect to
the  exercise of Options,  including  without  limitation,  any  relating to the
application  of federal or state  securities  laws, as it may deem  necessary or
advisable.  The Committee shall have the right to accelerate the  exercisability
of any Option or outstanding Options in its discretion.

      (d) PAYMENT.  No Shares shall be delivered  pursuant to any exercise of an
Option  until  payment in full of the option  price  therefor is received by the
Bank.  Such  payment  may be made in cash or its  equivalent,  or, if and to the
extent  permitted by the Committee,  by exchanging  Shares owned by the optionee
(which are not the subject of any pledge or other  security  interest),  or by a
combination of the  foregoing,  provided that the combined value of all cash and
cash equivalents and the Fair Market Value of any such Shares so tendered to the
Bank as of the date of such tender is at least equal to such option price.

      (e) EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN  CONTROL.  In the event of a Change in  Control,
all then outstanding Options,  will become 100% vested and exercisable as of the
Change in Control.  If, in connection  with or as a  consequence  of a Change in
Control,  the Bank or the Company is merged into or  consolidated  with  another
corporation,  or if the Bank or the  Company  sells  or  otherwise  disposes  of
substantially all of its assets to another  corporation,  then unless provisions
are made in connection  with such  transaction  for the  continuance of the Plan
and/or the  assumption  or  substitution  of then  outstanding  Options with new
options covering the stock of the successor corporation, or parent or subsidiary
thereof,  with  appropriate  adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and
prices,  such Options shall be canceled as of the effective  date of the merger,
consolidation, or sale and the Participant shall be paid in cash an amount equal
to the  difference  between the Fair Market  Value of the Shares  subject to the
Options as of the effective  date of the corporate  event and the exercise price
of the Options, as appropriate.

SECTION 7.  AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.

      (a)  AMENDMENTS  TO  THE  PLAN.  The  Board  may  amend,  alter,  suspend,
discontinue,  or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided
that no such amendment, alteration,  suspension,  discontinuation or termination
shall be made  without  shareholder  approval if such  approval is  necessary to
comply with any tax or regulatory requirement,  including for these purposes any
approval  requirement  which is a prerequisite for exemptive relief from Section
16(b) of the  Exchange  Act for which or with which the Board deems it necessary
or desirable to qualify or comply.

      (b)  AMENDMENTS  TO  AWARDS.  Except  as  provided  under  Section  3, the
Committee  may waive any  conditions  or  rights  under,  amend any terms of, or
alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted,
prospectively  or  retroactively;  provided  that  any such  waiver,  amendment,
alteration, suspension,  discontinuance,  cancellation or termination that would
impair the rights of any  Participant  or any holder or beneficiary of any Award
theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of
the affected Participant, holder or beneficiary.

      (c) CANCELLATION. Any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement to the
contrary  notwithstanding,  the Committee may cause any Award of Options granted
hereunder  to be canceled in  consideration  of the granting to the holder of an
alternative Award of Options having a Fair Market Value equal to the Fair Market
Value of such canceled Award.

SECTION 8.  GENERAL PROVISIONS.

      (a)   NONTRANSFERABILITY.

            (i) Each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable
only by the Participant's  lifetime, or, if permissible under applicable law, by
the Participant's  guardian or legal  representative  or a transferee  receiving
such Award  pursuant  to a  qualified  domestic  relations  order  ("QDRO"),  as
determined by the Committee.

            (ii) No Award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or
otherwise  transferred or encumbered by a Participant  otherwise than by will or
by the laws of descent and  distribution  or  pursuant  to a QDRO,  and any such
purported  assignment,   alienation,   pledge,  attachment,  sale,  transfer  or
encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable  against the Company;  provided that
the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation,
pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.

      (b) NO RIGHTS TO AWARDS.  No Employee,  Participant  or other Person shall
have any  claim  to be  granted  any  Award,  and  there  is no  obligation  for
uniformity of treatment of Employees,  Participants, or holders or beneficiaries
of Awards.  The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect
to each recipient.

      (c)  SHARE  CERTIFICATES.  All  Shares  or  other  securities  of the Bank
delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise  thereof shall be
subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may
deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations,  and other requirements
of the SEC, any stock  exchange or national  securities  association  upon which
such Shares or other securities are then listed,  and any applicable  Federal or
state  laws,  and the  Committee  may cause a legend or legends to be put on any
certificates  representing  such Shares or other  securities to make appropriate
reference to such restrictions.

      (d)  DELEGATION.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, the
Committee  may delegate to one or more officers or managers of the Bank, or to a
committee of such officers or managers, the authority, subject to such terms and
limitations as the Committee shall determine,  to grant Awards to, or to cancel,
modify or waive rights with respect to, or to alter,  discontinue,  suspend,  or
terminate  Awards held by,  Employees  who are not  officers or directors of the
Bank for purposed of Section 16 of the Exchange  Act, or any  successor  section
thereto, or who are otherwise not subject to such Section.

      (e) WITHHOLDING.  A Participant may be required to pay to the Bank and the
Bank shall have the right and is hereby  authorized  to withhold from any Award,
from any payment due or transfer  made under any Award or from any  compensation
or other amount owing to a Participant the amount of any applicable  withholding
taxes in respect of an Award, its exercise,  or any payment or transfer under an
Award and take such other  action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Bank
to satisfy  all  obligations  for the  payment of such  taxes.  With  respect to
Participants  who are  not  subject  to  Section  16 of the  Exchange  Act,  the
withholding  may be in the  form of  cash,  Shares,  or  other  property  as the
Committee may allow.  With respect to Participants who are subject to Section 16
of the Exchange Act, the  withholding  shall be in cash or in any other property
permitted by Rule 16b-3 as the  Committee may allow.  The Committee  may, in its
sole  discretion,  provide for additional  cash payments to holders of Awards to
defray or offset any tax arising from the grant,  vesting,  exercise or payments
of any Award.

      (f) AWARD AGREEMENTS.  Each Award hereunder shall be evidenced by an Award
Agreement  which shall be delivered  to the  Participant  and shall  specify the
terms and conditions of the Award and any rules applicable thereto.

      (g) NO LIMIT ON OTHER COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS.  Nothing contained in the
Plan  shall  prevent  the Bank from  adopting  or  continuing  in  effect  other
compensation  arrangements,  which may,  but need not,  provide for the grant of
options,  restricted  stock,  Shares  and  other  types of Awards  provided  for
hereunder (subject to

                                        6

<PAGE> 8



shareholder approval if such approval is required), and such arrangements may be
either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

      (h) NO RIGHT TO  EMPLOYMENT.  The grant of an Award shall not be construed
as giving a  Participant  the right to be  retained  in the  employ of the Bank.
Further,  the Bank may at any time dismiss a Participant from  employment,  free
from any  liability  or any claim  under the Plan,  unless  otherwise  expressly
provide in the Plan or in any Award Agreement.

      (i) NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER.  Subject to the provisions of the applicable
Award,  no  Participant  or holder or  beneficiary  of any Award  shall have any
rights as a stockholder  with respect to any Shares to be distributed  under the
Plan until he or she has become the holder of such Shares.

      (j) GOVERNING LAW. The validity,  construction, and effect of the Plan and
any rules and regulations  relating to the Plan and any Award Agreement shall be
determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana.

      (k) SEVERABILITY. If any provisions of the Plan or any Award is or becomes
or is deemed to be invalid,  illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as
to any Person or Award, or would  disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law
deemed applicable by the Committee,  such provision shall be construed or deemed
amended to conform  to the  applicable  laws,  or if it cannot be  construed  or
deemed  amended  without,  in the  determination  of the  Committee,  materially
altering the intent of the Plan or the Award,  such provision  shall be stricken
as to such  jurisdiction,  Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any
such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

      (l) OTHER LAWS.  The  Committee may refuse to issue or transfer any Shares
or other  consideration  under an Award if,  acting in its sole  discretion,  it
determines  that  the  issuance  or  transfer  of  such  Shares  or  such  other
consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation or entitle the Bank
to recovery under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, and any payment tendered to
the Bank by a Participant,  other holder or  beneficiary in connection  with the
exercise of such Award shall be promptly  refunded to the relevant  Participant,
holder or  beneficiary.  Without  limiting the generality of the  foregoing,  no
Award granted hereunder shall be construed as an offer to sell securities of the
Bank, and no such offer shall be outstanding,  unless and until the Committee in
its sole  discretion has determined  that any such offer,  if made,  would be in
compliance with all applicable requirements of the U.S. federal securities laws.

      (m) NO TRUST OR FUND CREATED.  Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create
or be  construed  to create a trust or separate  fund of any kind or a fiduciary
relationship  between the Bank and a  Participant  or any other  Person.  To the
extent  that any  Person  acquires  a right to  receive  payments  from the Bank
pursuant  to an Award,  such  rights  shall be no greater  than the right of any
unsecured general creditor of the Bank.

      (n) RULE 16B-3  COMPLIANCE.  With respect to persons subject to Section 16
of the Exchange  Act,  transactions  under this Plan are intended to comply with
all applicable terms and conditions of Rule 16b-3 and any successor  provisions.
To the extent that any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to
so comply,  it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and
deemed advisable by the Committee.

      (o)  HEADINGS.  Heading are given to the Sections and  subsections  of the
Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be
deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or  interpretation of
the Plan or any provision thereof.

      (p) NO IMPACT ON BENEFITS.  Unless  specifically  provided under any other
benefit  plan of the Bank or its  Affiliates,  Awards  shall not be  treated  as
compensation for purposes of calculating an Employee's rights under such benefit
plans.

      (q) INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the
Committee  or of the Board shall be  indemnified  and held  harmless by the Bank
against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that

                                        7

<PAGE> 9



may be  imposed  upon  or  reasonably  incurred  by him in  connection  with  or
resulting from any claim,  action, suit, or proceeding to which he may be made a
party or in which he may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to
act  under  the Plan and  against  and from any and all  amounts  paid by him in
settlement thereof,  with the Bank's approval, or paid by him in satisfaction of
any judgement in any such action,  suit, or proceeding  against him, provided he
shall give the Bank an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the
same  before he  undertakes  to handle  and  defend  it on his own  behalf.  The
foregoing  right  of  indemnification  shall  not  be  exclusive  and  shall  be
independent of any other rights of  indemnification to which such persons may be
entitled under the Bank's articles of incorporation or bylaws, by contract, as a
matter of law, or otherwise.

SECTION 9.  TERM OF THE PLAN.

      (a)   EFFECTIVE DATE.  The  Plan  shall  be  effective  as  of the date of
adoption by the Board.

      (b)  EXPIRATION  DATE.  The Plan shall  terminate on and no Award shall be
granted  under the Plan  after  the  tenth  anniversary  of the  effective  date
thereof.  Unless  otherwise  expressly  provided in the Plan or in an applicable
Award Agreement, any Award granted hereunder may, and the authority of the Board
or the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue, or terminate any
such Award or to waive any  conditions  or rights  under any such  Award  shall,
continue  after the tenth  anniversary  of the  effective  date of the effective
date.

      (c) SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
this Plan and all Awards  granted under the Plan shall  automatically  terminate
and shall be of no further force or effect in the event that the stockholders of
the Bank do not approve this Plan within 12 months of the effective  date of the
Plan.

      Re:   FIRST FEDERAL BANK, A FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK 1994 Option Plan (as

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      We have been requested by First Capital,  Inc. (the  "Company") to issue a
legal opinion in connection  with the  registration  under the Securities Act of
1933 on Form S-8 of 51,298 shares of the Company's  Common Stock, par value $.01
per share (the  "Shares"),  that may be issued under the FIRST  FEDERAL  BANK, A
FEDERAL  SAVINGS  BANK 1994  Option  Plan (as  assumed  by First  Capital,  Inc.

      We have made such  legal and  factual  examinations  and  inquiries  as we
deemed advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion.  In our examination,
we have  assumed and have not verified (i) the  genuineness  of all  signatures,

conformity of the originals of all documents  supplied to us as copies, and (iv)
the accuracy and completeness of all corporate  records and documents and of all
certificates  and statements of fact, in each case given or made available to us
by the Company or its subsidiary.

      Based on the foregoing,  it is our opinion that the Shares  reserved under
the Plan have been duly  authorized  and upon  payment  for and  issuance of the
Shares in the manner  described in the Plan, will be legally issued,  fully paid
and nonassessable.

the  issuance of the Shares as described  above.  This opinion may not be relied
upon by any other person or for any other  purpose,  and it should not be quoted
