ABILENE, TEXAS
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
----------------------------
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES, INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP / 401(k)
PLAN as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statements of changes in
net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the
INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES, INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP / 401(k) PLAN as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted

INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES, INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP / 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
December 31, 1997 and 1996
NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES, INC. (the "Company") established the
INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES, INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (the
"Plan") effective January 1, 1987. The Plan is an employee stock
ownership plan (ESOP), and is designed to comply with Section 4975
(e)(7) and the regulations thereunder of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code") and is subject to the applicable
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended ("ERISA"). The Plan is administered by INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES,
INC. Employers participating in the Plan during the year are
INDEPENDENT BANKSHARES, INC. and its wholly owned subsidiary FIRST
STATE BANK, N.A., ABILENE, TEXAS. FIRST STATE BANK, N.A., ABILENE is
the Plan's trustee.
The Plan was amended in 1993 to add a 401(k) provision. This allows
plan participants to make salary deferrals which are credited to each
participant's account. The Plan name was changed to the INDEPENDENT
BANKSHARES, INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP / 401(k) PLAN.
The more significant aspects of the Plan are summarized below:
Eligibility to Participate
--------------------------
An employee becomes a participant on the January 1 or July 1
coincident with or immediately following the later of the date on
which he or she completes one year of service (1,000 hours), and
attains age 21.
Employer's Contributions
------------------------
The Company, at its discretion, annually will determine the amount of
its contribution, if any, to the Plan. The Company may make its
contribution to the Plan in cash or in the Company's common stock or
such property that is acceptable to the trustee. For each plan year
the Company and its subsidiaries contribute to the Plan, the
allocation of the contribution will be based upon a participant's
proportionate share of the total compensation paid during that plan
year to all participants in the Plan. The Company may also, at its
discretion, make a matching contribution of up to 5% of eligible
participants' yearly compensation.
Employee Contributions
----------------------
The Plan permits (but does not require) employees to make voluntary
contributions or salary deferrals up to the maximum amount allowable
by law.
Vesting
-------
An employee's interest in the contributions by the Company and its
subsidiaries to the Plan for the employee's benefit becomes 100%
vested (nonforfeitable) upon the employee attaining age 65, or if the
employee terminates employment because of death or disability. If an
employee terminates employment prior to normal retirement age for any
reason other than death or disability, then the
4
<PAGE>
employee's interest in the contributions by the Company and its
subsidiaries to the Plan for the employee's benefit becomes vested in
accordance with the following schedule:
Years of Service Nonforfeitable
With the Employer Accrued Benefit
--------------------------- ------------------------------
Less than 2 None
2 10%
3 20%
4 40%
5 60%
6 80%
7 100%
Forfeitures
-----------
The Plan provides two methods of vesting forfeiture. The primary
method of vesting forfeiture is the "forfeiture break in service"
rule. The secondary method of forfeiture is the "cash out" rule.
Termination of employment alone will not result in a forfeiture under
the Plan unless an employee does not return to employment with the
Company before incurring a "forfeiture break in service" (a period of
5 consecutive plan years). The cash out rule becomes operative if an
employee terminates employment and receives a total distribution of
the vested portion of his or her account balance.
Distributions
-------------
Distributions after an employee attains age 65 will be paid as soon
thereafter as is practical.
If an employee dies prior to receiving all of his or her benefits
under the Plan, the trustee will pay the balance of their account to
their beneficiary.
If an employee becomes disabled, the trustee will pay his or her
account balance as if he or she had retired.
If an employee terminates employment prior to attaining normal
retirement age, the trustee will distribute the employee's vested
interest in lump sum or in equal installments over a fixed period of
time. The Employee Stock Ownership / 401(k) Plan Committee will direct
the trustee to distribute the employee's vested interest in the Plan
at any time prior to the close of the plan year in which the employee
separates from service, postpone distribution until after the plan
year in which the employee separates from service, or postpone
distribution until the employee attains age 65.
Plan Termination
----------------
The Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time,
subject to Plan provisions. Upon such termination of the Plan, the
interest of each participant will be distributed to such participant
or his or her beneficiary at the time prescribed by the Plan terms and
the Code.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
-------------------------------------------
The shares of Common Stock of the Company are valued at fair value on
December 31 of each year. Fair values at December 31, 1997 and 1996,
were determined by using the closing sales prices for the last market
transaction on or prior to those dates according to the American Stock
Exchange.
Mutual funds owned by the Company are valued at fair value on December
31 of each year. Fair value is determined by the fair value on
December 31 as published in the Wall Street Journal.
Dividend income is accrued on the ex-dividend date.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on
the specific identification method.
Contributions
-------------
Contributions are recognized in the year in which they are declared
and not received.
NOTE 3: TAX STATUS
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company
by a letter dated June 28, 1995, that the Plan is qualified and tax-
exempt under the appropriate sections of the Code.
NOTE 4: ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN ASSETS
The Plan's assets, which consist principally of the Company's Common
Stock and mutual funds, are held by the trustee of the Plan.
Contributions are held and managed by the trustee under the direction
of the Employee Stock Ownership / 401(k) Plan Committee. The trustee
invests contributions received, interest, and dividend income and
makes distributions to participants.
Certain administrative functions are performed by officers or
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries. No such officer or
employee receives compensation from the Plan.
NOTE 5: INVESTMENTS
The Plan's investments, at December 31, are presented in the following

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
---------------------------------------------------------
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held
for investment and reportable transactions are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
