of common stock, no par value, of Western ("Western Common Stock") based on a
purchase price of $14.25 per share of SCB Common Stock using a floating exchange
ratio for Western Common Stock within a price range of $2.75 to $3.75 per share.

     an option (the "Option") entitling it to purchase up to 1,491,050 (or such
     lesser amount as shall constitute 19.9% of the outstanding shares of SCB 
     Common Stock on the date of exercise) fully paid and nonassessable shares 
     of SCB Common Stock at a price per share equal to $11.875 per share, 
     subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.*

         Subject to applicable law and regulatory restrictions, Western may

     Section 4.2(a) of the SCB Disclosure Letter delivered in connection
     with the Merger Agreement (the "SCB Disclosure Letter") or as a result
     of the execution and delivery of the Shareholder Agreements referred
     to in Section 6.5 of the Merger Agreement, such that, upon the
     consummation of such acquisition, such Person would have beneficial
     ownership, in the aggregate, of 20% or more of the then outstanding
     shares of SCB Common Stock if such Person is a director or officer of
     SCB, and 25% or more of the then outstanding


   ------------------------------

*In the event of any change in the SCB Common Stock by reason of stock
dividends, split-ups, recapitalization, or the like, the type and number of
shares of SCB Common Stock subject to the Options shall be increased so that,
after such issuance and together with shares of SCB Common Stock previously
issued pursuant to the exercise of the Option, the number of shares of SCB
Common Stock subject to the Option equals 19.9% of the number of shares of SCB
Common Stock then issued and outstanding.

          1.  SCB or any of its subsidiaries (each a "SCB Subsidiary")
      without having received Western's prior written consent, shall have
      entered into an agreement to engage in an Acquisition Transaction (as
      defined below) with any Person (the term "Person" for purposes of the
      Option Agreement having the meaning assigned thereto in Sections

      other than Western or any of its subsidiaries (each a "Western
      Subsidiary") or the Board of Directors of SCB shall have recommended

                            -8-

<PAGE>

set forth in Section 4.2(a) of the SCB Disclosure Letter, provided that the
term "Acquisition Transaction" does not include any internal merger or

     2.  Any Person (other than Western or any Western Subsidiary) shall
have acquired Beneficial Ownership or the right to acquire Beneficial

such offer, such Person would own or control 10% or more of the then
outstanding shares of SCB Common Stock (such an offer being referred to
herein as a "Tender Offer" or an "Exchange Offer", respectively)); 

     4.  After a proposal is made by a third party to SCB or its
shareholders to engage in an Acquisition Transaction, SCB shall have
breached any covenant or obligation contained in the Merger Agreement and
such breach would entitle Western to terminate the Merger Agreement or the
holders of SCB Common Stock shall not have approved the Merger Agreement at
the meeting of such shareholders held for the purpose of voting on the
Merger Agreement, such meeting shall not have been held or shall have been
canceled prior to termination of the Merger Agreement or SCB's Board of
Directors shall have withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Western
the recommendation of SCB's Board of Directors with respect to the Merger
Agreement;

     5.  Any Person other than Western or any Western Subsidiary, other

written consent or in connection with the exercise of options, warrants or
other rights (or in settlement or satisfaction of such rights) set forth in

     Federal Reserve Board or other governmental authority or regulatory or
     administrative agency or commission (each, a "Governmental Authority") for
     approval to engage in an Acquisition Transaction; or

          6.  The Board of Directors of SCB does not recommend that the
     shareholders of SCB approve the Merger Agreement.

     As provided in the Option Agreement, in the event that Western is entitled
and wishes to exercise the Option, it must send to SCB a written notice (the
date of which is referred to in the Option Agreement as the "Notice Date")
specifying (1) the total number of shares of SCB Common Stock which Western
intends to purchase pursuant to such exercise, (2) the aggregate purchase price
as provided herein, and (3) a period of time (not less than three business days,
nor more than 30 business days) running from the Notice Date and a place at
which the closing of such purchase shall take place; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if
prior notification to or approval of the Federal Reserve Board or any other
Governmental Authority is required in connection with such purchase, Western
will promptly file, and expeditiously process the required notice or application
for approval.

     Under the BHC Act, Western may not directly or indirectly acquire more than
5 percent of the outstanding shares of any class of voting Securities of SCB
without application to and prior approval from the Federal Reserve Board.

     If SCB enters into certain agreements relating to the consolidation or
merger of SCB or the sale of substantially all of its assets or deposits, SCB is
required to make proper provision so that the Option will, upon consummation of
such transaction, be converted into, or exchanged for, an option (the
"Substitute Option") in the surviving corporation in a consolidation or merger
or in the transfer of substantially all of SCB's assets or deposits, as the case
may be.  The Substitute Option will have the same terms and conditions as the
Option; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that to the extent terms and conditions of the
Substitute Option cannot legally be identical to those of the Option, they will
in no event be less advantageous to Western.

     In certain circumstances related to the exercise of the Option, the time
period specified in the Option Agreement will be extended at the request of
Western (1) to the extent necessary to obtain all regulatory approvals and for
the expiration of all statutory waiting periods and (2) to the extent necessary
to avoid liability under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act by reason
of such exercise; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event shall any closing date
occur more than six months after the related Notice Date.

     The Option may be assigned by Western in certain circumstances, subject to
the terms and conditions described in the Option Agreement.

     C.   PURCHASES OF SCB COMMON STOCK.

     On May 23, 1997 and May 27, 1997, the Fund purchased, in open market 
transactions, an aggregate of 37,500 shares of SCB Common Stock at an average 
price per share of $12.42. On May 29, 1997, Western purchased, in open market 
transactions, 5,700 shares of SCB Common Stock at $12.56 per share. Subject 
to market conditions and developments with respect to the Merger, the Fund 
and/or Western may purchase additional shares of SCB Common Stock in the open 
market or in privately negotiated transactions, to the extent permitted by 
the BHC Act and federal securities laws.

     Other than as described above or in Item 5 below, the Fund and Western 
do not have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of 
the matters listed in item 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13 D."  

     Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:


"Item 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     (a)  THE OPTION.  As a result of entry into the Option Agreement and the 
granting of the Option thereunder, pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(i) under the 
Exchange Act (defined above), Western is deemed to own beneficially 1,491,050 
shares of SCB Common Stock (or such lesser amount as shall constitute 19.9% 
of the outstanding shares of SCB Common Stock on the date of exercise), 
constituting approximately 19.9% of the shares of SCB Common Stock issued and 
outstanding as of April 29, 1997.  Western expressly disclaims any beneficial 
ownership of the 1,491,050 shares of SCB Common Stock which are obtainable by 
Western upon exercise of the Option, because the Option is exercisable only 
in the circumstances set forth in the Option Agreement, which is described in 
Item 4 hereof, none of which has occurred as of the date hereof and only then 
with regulatory approval (if, as a consequence, Western would own more than 
5% of the outstanding shares of SCB Common Stock).  

     OPEN MARKET PURCHASES.  Western and the Fund own 5,700 and 37,500 shares 
of SCB Common Stock, respectively, with full voting and dispositive powers.

     (b)  If Western were to exercise the Option, it would have sole power to
vote and, subject to the terms of the Option Agreement, sole power to direct the
disposition of, the shares of SCB Common Stock covered thereby.

     (c)  On May 27, 1997, Matthew P. Wagner, President of Western, purchased 
3,000 shares of SCB Common Stock, at $12.50 per share, in an open market 
transaction. On May 22, 1997, Arnold C. Hahn, Chief Financial Officer of 
Western, purchased 5,000 shares of SCB Common Stock, at $12.44 per share, in 
an open market transaction. On May 16, 1997, Hugh S. Smith, Jr. purchased 
5,000 shares of SCB Common Stock, at $11.86 per share, in an open market 
transaction. Other than as set forth herein, none of Western or to the best 
knowledge of Western, any of its directors or executive officers or any 
persons controlling Western listed on Annex A hereto has effected any 
transaction in shares of SCB Common Stock during the past 60 days.

     (d)  Not applicable.

     (e)  Not applicable."
