(1)  Estimated  solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee pursuant
     to Rule  457(f) on the basis of the  market  value of the  shares of common
     stock  of  First  Ashland  Financial  Corporation  on  June  14,  1996,  as
     determined  pursuant to Rule 457(c),  less the aggregate $9.00 cash portion
     of the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(2)  Original  number  of  shares  registered  at the  initial  filing  of  this
     Registration Statement.

(3)  Additional  shares to be registered  with the filing of this  Pre-Effective
     Amendment No. 1. The number of shares to be registered  has increased  from
     940,412 to 987,434, because the Registrant paid a 5% stock dividend in July
     1996,  which has  resulted  in an  increase  in the  number of shares to be
     issued in this acquisition.

(4)  Total number of shares to be registered under this Registration Statement.

(5)  Estimated  solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee pursuant
     to Rule  457(f) on the basis of the  market  value of the  shares of common
     stock  of  First  Ashland  Financial  Corporation  on  July  26,  1996,  as
     determined  pursuant to Rule 457(c),  less the aggregate $9.00 cash portion
     of the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(6)  The Registrant  paid the  registration  fee of $4,667 on June 20, 1996, the
     date of the filing of this Registration Statement. Because the market value
     of the shares of common stock of First  Ashland  Financial  Corporation  on
     July 26,  1996,  was  $.025  less  than on June  14,  1996,  the  aggregate
     registration fee has decreased and no additional filing fee is required for
     the additional shares to be registered.

     The Registrant  hereby amends this  Registration  Statement on such date or
dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the Registrant shall
file a further  amendment  which  specifically  states  that  this  Registration
Statement shall  thereafter  become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of
the  Securities  Act of 1933 or until the  Registration  Statement  shall become
effective on such date as the  Commission  acting  pursuant to said Section 8(a)
may determine.
