PART I

Item 1.  INFORMATION ABOUT MID AM, INC.

Mid Am, Inc. (the "Company"), a financial services holding
company, has five bank subsidiaries with a total of 89 banking
offices located in western Ohio along the Interstate 75 corridor
and in southern Michigan.  The Company also owns seven financial
services subsidiaries which engage in lines of business which are
closely related to banking.  Based on total assets as of December
31, 1996, the Company was the 9th largest bank holding company in
Ohio.  Through its banking subsidiaries, the Company offers a
wide range of lending, depository, trust, and related financial
services to individual and business customers.  Through its
financial services subsidiaries, the Company offers speciality
lending, investment, collection and related financial services to
individual and business customers.

The Holding Company

Mid Am, Inc. is an Ohio corporation and registered bank holding
company, formed in 1988 in conjunction with the affiliation of
Mid American National Bank and Trust Company and First National
Bank Northwest Ohio.  The Company's corporate philosophy is to
encourage its subsidiaries to operate as locally-oriented, 
community-based financial service affiliates, augmented by
experienced, centralized support from the Company in selected
critical areas.  This local market orientation is reflected in
the bank subsidiaries' boards of directors and branch banking
centers, which generally have advisory boards comprised of local
business persons, professionals and other community
representatives, that assist the banking centers in responding to
local banking needs.  The bank subsidiaries concentrate on
customer service and business development, while relying upon the
support of the Company in identifying operational areas that can
be effectively centralized without sacrificing the benefits of a
local orientation.  Primary candidates for centralization are
those functions which are not readily visible to customers and
those which are critical to risk management.  Asset quality
review, data processing, loan and deposit processing, certain
mortgage banking activities, financial reporting, internal audit,
compliance and funds management are among the functions which are
managed at the holding company level.

The Company's market area is economically diverse, with a base
of manufacturing, service industries, transportation and
agriculture, and is not dependent upon any single industry or
employer.  Similarly, the Company's customer base is diverse,
and the Company and its subsidiaries are not dependent upon any
single industry or upon any single customer.


<PAGE  4>

Mid Am, Inc.'s strategic plan includes expansion and market
diversification through internal growth and acquisitions of
financial institutions and branches.  The Company seeks
acquisition partners with experienced management, which have
significant market presence or have potential for improved
profitability through financial management, economies of scale
and expanded services.  The Company also plans to devote
significant resources toward the growth of its fee-based income
in the future through internal business formations or through
non-bank acquisitions.

There is significant competition in the financial services
industry in western Ohio among commercial banks.  As a result of
the deregulation of the financial services industry, the Company
also competes with other providers of financial services such as
savings and loan associations, credit unions, consumer finance
companies, securities firms, insurance companies, commercial
finance and leasing companies, the mutual funds industry, full
service brokerage firms and discount brokerage firms.  Some of
the Company's competitors, including certain regional bank
holding companies which have made acquisitions in the Company's
market area, have substantially greater resources than that of
the Company, and as such, may have higher lending limits and may
offer other services not available through the bank and non-bank
subsidiaries.  The bank and non-bank subsidiaries compete on the
basis of rates of interest charged on loans, the rates of
interest paid for funds, the availability of services and the
responsiveness to the needs of its customers.

The Company's executive offices are located at 221 South Church
Street, Bowling Green, Ohio, and its telephone number is
(419)327-6300.


The Bank Subsidiaries

Mid American National Bank and Trust Company ("Mid Am Bank"),
headquartered in Toledo, Ohio, was formed in 1952 and is the
largest subsidiary of the Company with total assets of $849
million at December 31, 1996.  Through its 36 banking centers in
northwest Ohio, Mid Am Bank concentrates primarily on commercial
lending and residential mortgage lending.

First National Bank Northwest Ohio ("First National"),

Am Bank in 1988 with the formation of the Company.  First
National is a leading residential mortgage lender in the
northwest corner of Ohio.  First National had total assets of
$527 million at December 31, 1996, and operates through 20
banking centers.


<PAGE  5>

American Community Bank, N. A., Lima, Ohio ("AmeriCom"), was
formed in 1992 as a result of the merger of a commercial bank
and a thrift subsidiary of the Company.  AmeriCom, with total
assets of $382 million at December 31, 1996, emphasizes
residential mortgage and consumer lending, and serves the west-
central Ohio market through 13 banking centers.

AmeriFirst Bank, N.A., Xenia, Ohio ("AmeriFirst"), was chartered

subsidiaries of the Company into a national bank subsidiary.
AmeriFirst operated 14 banking centers in the southwestern
portion of Ohio and had total assets of $262 million at December
31, 1996.  On February 14, 1997, AmeriFirst completed the sale of
seven of its branches with deposits of approximately $94 million
to another financial institution, and recognized a pre-tax gain
of approximately $8.5 million.

Adrian State Bank ("Adrian") is the Company's Adrian, Michigan

Company in 1995.  Adrian had total assets of $145 million at

United States.

MFI Investments Corp., Bryan, Ohio ("MFI") is the Company's
broker/dealer affiliate, which provides its customers investment
services throughout the United States through its 111 registered
representatives.  MFI also provides non-depository investment
products to the customers of the Bank Subsidiaries.

Mid Am Credit Corp. ("MACC"), is the Company's specialized
medical financing and leasing unit based in Columbus, Ohio. 
Beginning with its formation in 1996, MACC has offered medical
equipment and practice acquisition financing to medical
professionals throughout the United States.  MACC intends to sell
substantially all of its financing originations to funding
sources in the secondary market.

Mid Am Financial Services, Inc. ("MAFSI") and its subsidiary

<PAGE  6>

MAFSI, formed by the Company in connection with the Company's
1996 acquisition of Simplicity, engages in non-conforming
residential mortgage lending for customers with difficult
financing needs, and sells substantially all of its originations
in the secondary market.

Mid Am Private Trust, N.A. ("MAPT"), Cincinnati, Ohio, was formed
in 1997 as the Company's speciality trust bank subsidiary.  MAPT
was created to provide families with substantial financial
resources and individual and corporate trustees a unique approach
to fiduciary services through "insourcing" investment managers
and estate planners.  MAPT expects to conduct business on a
nationwide basis.

Mid Am Information Services, Inc. ("MAISI") is the Company's data

The information contained on page S-3 in Shareholder Information 
in the Company's 1997 Proxy Statement and 1996 Annual Report
Supplement is incorporated herein by reference in response to
this item.


Supervision and Regulation

Mid Am Bank, First National, AmeriCom, and AmeriFirst, as
national banking associations, are subject to supervision and
regular examination by the Comptroller of the Currency, and as
members of the Federal Reserve System, are subject to the
applicable provisions of the Federal Reserve Act.  Adrian, as a
Michigan State-chartered bank, is subject to supervision and
regular examination by the Michigan Financial Institutions Bureau
and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.  Adrian is not a member
of the Federal Reserve System.  The Company's financial service
subsidiaries are subject to various state and federal regulatory
bodies and licensing agencies.  MFI is subject to regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and supervision by the
National Association of Securities Dealers as well as various
state securities and insurance regulatory agencies.  MARSI, MAFSI
and MACC are subject to various state licensing requirements and
are subject to the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board.  The
Company, as a bank holding company, is subject to supervision and
regular examination by the Federal Reserve System.  All banking
subsidiaries of the Company are insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, to the extent provided by law, and as such


<PAGE  7>

are subject to the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insuance
Act.

The Company is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Act"), which requires a
bank holding company to register under the Act and to be subject
to supervision and examination by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System.  As a bank holding company, the Company
is required to file with the Board of Governors an annual report
and such additional information as the Board of Governors may
require pursuant to the Act.  The Act requires prior approval by
the Board of Governors of the acqusition by a bank holding
company, or any subsidiary thereof, of 5 percent or more of the
voting stock or substantially all the assets of any bank within
the United States.  Prior to the passage of FIRREA, it was not
possible for bank holding companies, such as the Company, to
acquire "healthy" thrift institutions.  Although such
acquisitions are now authorized, mergers between bank holding
companies and thrift institutions must be approved by the Federal
Reserve Board and the Office of Thrift Supervision.  As a bank
holding company located in the State of Ohio, the Company is not
permitted to acquire a bank or other financial institution
located in another state unless such acquisition is specifically
authorized by the statutes of such state, as is the case in
Michigan.  The Act further provides that the Board of Governors
shall not approve any such acquisition that would result in a
monopoly or would be in furtherance of any combination or
conspiracy to monopolize or attempt to monopolize the business of
banking in any part of the United States, or the effect of which
may be to substantially lessen competition or to create a
monopoly in any section of the country, or that in any other
manner would be in restraint of trade, unless the anti-
competitive effects of the proposed transaction are clearly
outweighed in the public interest by the probable effect of the
transaction in meeting the convenience and needs of the community
to be served.

The Act also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain
exceptions, from acquiring 5 percent or more of the voting stock
of any company that is not a bank and from engaging in any
business other than banking or performing services for its
banking subsidiaries without the approval of the Board of
Governors.  In addition, the acquisition of a thrift institution
must be approved by the Office of Thrift Supervision pursuant to
the savings and loan holding company provisions of the Home
Owners' Loan Act of 1933, as amended by FIRREA.  The Board of
Governors is also authorized to approve, among other things, the
ownership of shares by a bank holding company in any company the
activities of which the Board of Governors has determined to be
so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as


<PAGE  8>

to be a proper incident thereto.  The Board of Governors has, by
regulation, determined that certain activities, including
mortgage banking, operating small loan companies, factoring,
furnishing certain data processing operations, holding or
operating properties used by banking subsidiaries or acquired for
such furture use, providing certain investment and financial
advice, leasing (subject to certain conditions) real or personal
property, providing management consulting advice to certain
depository institutions, providing securities brokerage services,
arranging commercial real estate equity financing, underwriting
and dealing in government obligations and money market
instruments, providing consumer financial counseling, operating a
collection agency, owning and operating a savings association,
operating a credit bureau and conducting certain real estate
investment activities and acting as insurance agent for certain
types of insurance, are closely related to banking within the
meaning of the Act.  It also has determined that certain other
activities, including real estate brokerage and syndication, land
development, and property management, are not related to credit
transactions and are not permissible.  Each of the non-banking
activities conducted by the Company through its financial
services affiliates are activities which have been deemed by the
Board of Governors to be closely related to banking within the
meaning of the Act. 

The Act and the regulations of the Board of Governors prohibit
banks from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection
with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property, or
furnishing of services.  The Act also imposes certain
restrictions upon dealing by affiliated banks with the holding
company and among themselves including restrictions on interbank
borrowing and upon dealings in respect to the securities or
obligations of the holding company or other affiliates.

The earnings of banks, and therefore the earnings of the Company
(and its subsidiaries), are affected by the policies of
regulatory authorities, including the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System.  An important function of the Federal
Reserve Board is to regulate the national supply of bank credit
in an effort to prevent recession and to restrain inflation. 
Among the procedures used to implement these objectives are open
market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the
discount rate on member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve
requirements against member bank deposits.

These procedures are used in varying combinations to influence
overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and
deposits, and their use also may affect interest rates charged on
loans or paid for deposits.


<PAGE  9>

Monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a
significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks
in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. 
The effect, if any, of such policies upon the future business and
earnings of the Company cannot accurately be predicted.

The Company makes no attempt to predict the effect on its
revenues and earnings of changes in general economic, industrial,
and international conditions or in legislation and governmental
regulations.

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its
banking and other subsidiaries.  Most of the Company's revenues
result from dividends paid to it by its bank subsidiaries.  There
are statutory and regulatory requirements applicable to the
payment of dividends by subsidiary banks as well as by the
Company to its shareholders.

Each national banking association is required by federal law to
obtain the prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency ("OCC") for the declaration and payment of dividends if
the total of all dividends declared by the board of directors of
such bank in any year will exceed the total of (i) such bank's
net profits (as defined and interpreted by regulation) for that
year plus (ii) the retained net profits (as defined and
interpreted by regulation) for the preceding two years, less any
required transfers to surplus.  In addition, these banks may only
pay dividends to the extent that retained net profits (including
the portion transferred to surplus) exceed bad debts (as defined
by regulation). 

The Company's only state bank, Adrian, may pay dividends only to
the extent they do not exceed the bank's retained net profits
plus the current year's income.

The payment of dividends by the Company and the Company's
subsidiaries is also affected by various regulatory requirements
and policies, such as the requirement to maintain capital at or
above regulatory guidelines.  In addition, if, in the opinion of
the applicable regulatory authority, a bank under its
jurisdiction is engaged in or is about to engage in an unsafe or
unsound practice (which, depending on the financial condition of
the bank, could include the payment of dividends), such authority
may require, after notice and hearing, that such bank cease and
desist from such practice.  The FRB and the OCC have each
indicated that paying dividends that deplete a bank's capital
base to an inadequate level should be an unsafe and unsound
banking practice.  The FRB, the OCC and the FDIC have issued
policy statements which provide that bank holding companies and
insured banks should generally only pay dividends out of current


<PAGE 10>

operating earnings.

The Company has outstanding 1,007,125 shares of cumulative
convertible preferred stock, series A, which has a dividend
preference feature over the Company's common stock.

According to Federal Reserve Board policy, bank holding companies
are expected to act as a source of financial strength to each
subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support each such
subsidiary.  This support may be required at times when a bank
holding company may not be able to provide such support.  In the
event of a loss suffered or anticipated by the FDIC - either as a
result of default of a banking or thrift subsidiary of the
Company or related to FDIC assistance provided to a subsidiary in
danger of default - the other banking subsidiaries of the Company
may be assessed for the FDIC's loss, subject to certain
exceptions.


Employees

As of December 31, 1996, the Company and its subsidiaries had
approximately 1,045 full-time and 384 part-time employees.  The
Company considers its and its Subsidiaries' employee relations to
be good.  None of the employees are covered by a collective
bargaining agreement.




Item 2.  PROPERTIES

The Company's executive offices are located at an office
building in Bowling Green.  The subsidiaries operate 89 banking
centers, of which 72 are owned, 4 are leased from various other
parties and 13 are leased from Bancsites, Inc. ("Bancsites")
under long-term lease agreements.  Subsequent to December 31,
1996, the Company sold seven of its branches.  Bancsites was a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Am Bank until 1977, when Mid Am
Bank distributed all shares of Bancsites to its shareholders. 
Certain senior management officials of Bancsites also serve as
senior management officials of Mid Am Bank.  Reference is made to

Exhibit A.


   Article Fourth, Division 1 of the Amended Articles of
Incorporation, of Mid Am, Inc. is hereby amended by the insertion
of paragraph G immediately following paragraph F as follows:

   (G)  Series A Preferred Shares.  There is hereby established a
series of the preferred shares of the Corporation to which the
following provisions shall be applicable:

      1.  Designation and number.  The series shall be designated
"$1.8125 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A" (the
"Series A Preferred Stock").  The number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be up to 1,610,000.

      2.  Dividends.  (a)  The holders of record of Series A
Preferred Stock , on such respective dates as shall be determined
by the Board of Directors in advance of the payment of each
dividend provided for herein, shall be entitled to receive, as
and when declared by the Board of Directors and out of assets of
the Corporation which are by law available for the payment of
dividends, at the rate of $1.8125 per share per annum payable
March 1, June 1, September 1, and December 1 of each year,
commencing on September 1, 1992 (each such day a "dividend date"
and each quarterly period ending on a dividend date a "dividend
period"), which dividends shall accrue from June 12, 1992.  Each
such dividend shall be payable to the holders of record as they
appear on the stock books of the Corporation on such record
dates, not exceeding 60 days preceding the payment dates thereof,
as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

      (b)  Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall be
cumulative, whether or not in any dividend period or periods
there shall be surplus or net profits of the Corporation legally
available for the payment of such dividends.

      (c)  Accumulations of dividends on any shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall not bear interest.

      (d)  Dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock for
any period greater or less than a full dividend period shall be
computed on the basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30
day months.  Dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock
for each full dividend period shall be computed by dividing the
annual dividend rate by four.

      3.  Liquidation Preference.  The amount which the holders
of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive in the
event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the


<PAGE  5>

Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be $25.00
per share plus an amount per share equal to all dividends accrued
and unpaid thereon to the date of such liquidation, dissolution
or winding up, and no more.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary elsewhere in these Articles of Incorporation, the stated
capital of the Corporation in respect of the Series A Preferred
Stock shall be in accordance with Chapter 1701 of the Ohio
Revised Code.

      4.  Redemption.  (a)  The shares of Series A Preferred
Stock shall be redeemable at the option of the Corporation in
whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, on or after
June 12, 1997, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days notice
by mail, at a redemption price of $25.00 per share plus accrued
and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

      (b)  Any notice of redemption mailed to a holder of Series
A Preferred Stock at his address as the same appears on the books
of the Corporation shall be conclusively presumed to have been
given whether or not the holder receives the notice.  Each such
notice shall state the redemption date; the number of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed, and, if less than all
shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are to be
redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such
holder and the fact that a new certificate or certificates
representing any unredeemed shares shall be issued without cost
to such holder; the redemption price applicable to the shares to
be redeemed; the place or places where such shares are to be
surrendered; and that dividends on shares to be redeemed shall
cease to accrue and accumulate on the redemption date.  No defect
in any such notice as to any shares of Series A Preferred Stock
shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption
of any other shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

      (c)  Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock called for
redemption pursuant to this subparagraph 4 shall not be deemed to
be outstanding for the purposes of voting, determining the total
number of shares entitled to vote, or payment of dividends
thereon on or after the date on which the notice of redemption is
mailed to the holders thereof and a sum sufficient to redeem such
shares has been set apart for payment of the redemption price
upon surrender of the certificates therefor.  Any money set apart
for such payment which is not required to redeem such shares
because of conversions shall be promptly returned to the
Corporation.  In addition, any money set apart for such payment
which remains unclaimed for a period of six years after the
redemption date shall be repaid to the Corporation upon the
request of the Corporation as expressed by a resolution of the
Board of Directors.  The holders of record of the shares so
called for redemption who have not made a claim against such


<PAGE  6>

moneys prior to such repayment to the Corporation shall be deemed
to be unsecured creditors of the Corporation for an amount
equivalent to the amount set apart for payment of the redemption
price and so repaid to the Corporation, but in no event shall any
such holder be entitled to receive any interest thereon.  The
Corporation shall be entitled to receive any interest paid from
time to time on the money so set apart.

      5.  Conversion.  (a)  At the option of each of the holders
of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, such stock may be
converted into the fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock as
provided for in this subparagraph 5.

      (b)  The Series A Preferred Stock may be converted into
Common Stock at the conversion rate in effect at the conversion
date as defined below.  The initial "conversion rate" shall be
1.11111 shares of Common Stock for each share of Series A
Preferred Stock converted, subject, however, to adjustment from
time to time as provided elsewhere in this subparagraph 5.  For
purposes of such conversion, each share of Series A Preferred
Stock will be valued at $25.00.

      (c)  Upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, (i)
no payment shall be made on account of any accrued and unpaid
dividends on such Series A Preferred Stock to the conversion
date, and (ii) no adjustment in the conversion rate will be made
on account of any such dividends.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any share of Series A Preferred Stock is converted after any
record date for the payment of a dividend on the Series A
Preferred Stock but before the due date for payment therefor,
then (i) such dividend shall be payable on such due date to the
record holder of such share on such record date, and (ii) such
share, when surrendered for conversion, shall be accompanied by
payment of an amount equal to the dividend payable on such due
date on such share (unless such share has been called for
redemption prior to the due date for payment therefor).

      (d)  Any Series A Preferred Stock which has been called for
redemption pursuant to subparagraph 4 hereof may nevertheless be
converted by the holder thereof at any time prior to the close of
business on the tenth day preceding the date fixed for the
redemption of such Series A Preferred Stock.

      (e)  In the event the Corporation (i) issues any Common
Stock as a dividend with respect to the outstanding Common Stock
or any other common capital stock as a class or (ii) subdivides
or combines the outstanding Common Stock, then the conversion
rate in effect at the date of such event shall be adjusted by
multiplying such conversion rate by the quotient of (a) the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after


<PAGE  7>

such event, divided by (b) the number of such shares outstanding
immediately before such event.  As used in this subparagraph 5,
the term "common capital stock" means any class of capital stock
of the Corporation ranking substantially on a parity with the
Common Stock with respect to either preference upon liquidation
or payment of dividends.  Each adjustment in the conversion rate
pursuant to this subsection shall become effective as of either
(i) the record date for the payment of such dividend, or (ii) the
effective date of any such subdivision or combination.

      (f)  In the event that the Corporation distributes with
respect to the outstanding Common Stock or any other common
capital stock as a class any rights or warrants to purchase
Common Stock at a price per share which is less than the current
market price per share of the Common Stock determined as provided
for in subparagraph 5(1) hereof at the record date fixed for
determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution, then the conversion rate shall be adjusted by
multiplying the conversion rate by the quotient of (i) the sum of
(a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of such
record date, plus (b) the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the full exercise of such rights or warrants,
divided by (ii) the sum of (a) the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the full exercise of such rights or warrants,
multiplied by (y) the quotient of the minimum exercise price of
such rights or warranties, divided by such current market price
at such record date.  If the Corporation shall, by dividend or
otherwise, distribute to all holders of Common Stock evidences of
its indebtedness or assets (including securities, but excluding
any rights or warrants referred to above, any dividend or
distribution paid in cash out of retained earnings of the
Corporation and any dividend or distribution referred to in
subparagraph 5(e) hereof), the conversion rate shall be adjusted
so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying
the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to the close of
business on the record date fixed for the determination of
shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction
the denominator of which shall be the current market price per
share (determined as provided in subparagraph 5(1) hereof) of the
Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the
then fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors,
whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the
assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to
one share of Common Stock and the numerator of which shall be the
current market price per share of the Common Stock.  Each
adjustment in the conversion rate pursuant to this subparagraph
5(f) shall become effective as of the record date fixed for
determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such
distribution.


<PAGE  8>

      (g)  The conversion rate shall not be adjusted if there is
a reclassification.  As used in this subparagraph 5, the term
"reclassification" means that the Common Stock is changed into
the same or a different number or amount of shares of capital
stock, other securities, cash or other property of the
Corporation by reclassification or other capital reorganization
other than a share dividend, a subdivision or combination, or a
reorganization all as provided for elsewhere in this 
subparagraph 5.  However, in the event of any reclassification,
the Series A Preferred Stock shall become convertible into the
same number or amount of shares of capital stock, other
securities, cash or other property which would have been
issuable, deliverable or payable on account of the Common Stock
issued upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock
assuming such stock had been converted immediately prior to such
reclassification.  Each change in convertibility pursuant to this
subparagraph 5(g) shall become effective as of the effective date
of such reclassification.  After any such reclassification, the
conversion privilege shall remain subject to adjustment on terms
comparable (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall be conclusive) to those applicable to the
Common Stock as provided herein.

      (h)  The conversion rate shall not be adjusted pursuant to
this subparagraph 5 if there is a reorganization.  As used in
this subparagraph 5 the term "reorganization" means (i) the
merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other
corporation or (ii) the sale or exchange of substantially all of
the assets of the Corporation as an entirety to any other
corporation or other entity.  However, in the event of a
reorganization, the Series A Preferred Stock shall become
convertible into the same number or amount of shares of stock,
other securities, cash or other property of the corporation or
other entity surviving or resulting from the reorganization which
would have been issuable, deliverable or payable on account of
the Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred
Stock, assuming such stock had been converted immediately prior
to such reorganization.  In addition, after a reorganization, the
provisions of this subparagraph 5 shall be appropriately
applicable in a manner as nearly equivalent as practicable to the
manner in which such provisions applied prior to such
reorganization.  Each change in convertibility pursuant to this
subparagraph 5(h) shall become effective as of the effective date
of each such reorganization.  After any such reorganization, the
conversion privilege shall remain subject to adjustment on terms
comparable (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall be conclusive) to those applicable to the
Common Stock as provided herein.


<PAGE  9>

      (i)  The Corporation may make such adjustments in the
conversion rate, in addition to those expressly required above,
as it considers to be advisable in order that any event treated
for federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock
rights shall not be taxable to the recipients.  No adjustment in
the conversion rate shall be required pursuant to subparagraph 5
hereof unless such adjustment would require an increase or
decrease in the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment event of at least 1 percent of one share of
Common Stock.  However, any such adjustments which are not so
required to be made at the time shall be carried forward and
taken into account in determining any subsequent adjustment
pursuant to this subparagraph 5.

      (j)  Each time (i) the conversion rate is adjusted or (ii)
there is a reclassification or a reorganization which changes the
convertibility of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation
shall furnish to each holder of the Series A Preferred Stock a
certificate specifying such adjustment or change and describing
the circumstances of such adjustment or change.

      (k)  The Series A Preferred Stock may be converted by (i)
surrendering the certificates representing the shares of such
Series A Preferred Stock, together with (ii) written notice of
conversion, and (iii) a proper assignment of such certificates to
the Corporation or in blank.  The notice of conversion shall
state the names and addresses in which the certificates
representing the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall
be issued.  The date upon which the certificates representing the
shares to be converted, notice of conversion and assignment are
received by the transfer agent is referred to herein as the
"conversion date."  A promptly as practicable after the
conversion date, the Corporation shall issue and deliver, as
specified in the notice of conversion, certificates for the
number of full shares of Common Stock (or other shares of capital
stock, other securities, cash or other property) issuable upon
such conversion, together with any cash instead of fractional
shares as provided in subparagraph 5(1) hereof.  Such conversion
shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the
close of business on the conversion date, and at such time the
rights of the holder as a holder of the converted shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock shall cease and the person or persons in
whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of
Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be
deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the
shares of Common Stock represented thereby.

      (l)  No fractional shares of Common Stock (or other shares
of stock or other securities) or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred


<PAGE 10>

Stock.  Instead, the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in
an amount equal to the same fraction of the current market price
per share of the Common Stock (or other shares of capital stock
or other securities) at the conversion date.  As used in this
subparagraph 5, the term "current market price" at any time means
the daily average closing price for a period of thirty business
days ending on the business day before the date for which such
price is to be determined.  The closing price for each business
day means (i) if the Common Stock is then listed on a national
securities exchange, the last reported closing sales price of the
Common Stock on such exchange which shall be for consolidated
trading if applicable to such exchange, or (ii) if the Common
Stock is not then listed on a national securities exchange but is
quoted on the NASDAQ National Market System, the last reported
closing sales price of the Common Stock on such system.  If, for
any reason, such closing prices cannot reasonably be determined,
then the "current market price" will be determined by any
reasonable method selected by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation.

      (m)  In the event some but not all of the shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock represented by certificates surrendered
by a holder are converted, the Corporation shall execute and
deliver to or on the order of the holder, at the expense of the
Corporation, a new certificate representing the number of shares
of Series A Preferred Stock which were not converted.

      (n)  The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep
available and free of preemptive rights out of its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
affecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such
number of its shares of Common Stock (or other shares of capital
stock or other securities) as shall from time to time be
sufficient to affect the conversion of all outstanding shares of
the Series A Preferred Stock, and if at any time the number of
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or other shares
of capital stock or other securities) shall not be sufficient to
effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take such
corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized
but unissued shares of Common Stock (or other shares of capital
stock or other securities) to such number of shares as shall be
sufficient for such purpose.

      (o)  The Corporation shall pay all documentary, stamp or
other transaction taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery
of shares of capital stock or other securities of the Corporation
upon conversion of any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. 
However, the Corporation shall not be required to pay any taxes
which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the


<PAGE 11>

issuance or delivery of any certificate for such shares in a name
other than that of the holder of the shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock in respect of which such shares are being issued.

      (p)  Upon conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, the stated capital of the Common Stock (or other shares of
capital stock) issued upon such conversion shall be the aggregate
stated capital, if any, of the shares so issued and the stated
capital of the Corporation shall be correspondingly increased or
decreased to reflect the difference between the stated capital of
the Series A Preferred Stock so converted and the stated capital,
if any, of the shares of Common Stock (or other shares of capital
stock) issued upon conversion.

      6.  Reacquired Shares.  Shares of Series A Preferred Stock
converted, redeemed, or otherwise purchased or acquired by the
Corporation shall be restored to the status of authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock without designation as to
series.

      7.  No Sinking Fund.  The Series A Preferred Stock will not
be subject to any sinking fund or other obligation of the
Corporation to redeem or retire the Series A Preferred Stock.

Division 1.  EXPRESS TERMS OF THE PREFERRED SHARES.

          (A)  Board of Directors Authority to Fix Certain Terms.
          The Preferred Shares may be issued from time to time in
          one or more series.  All Preferred Shares shall be of
          equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of
          the matters that may be fixed by the Board of 
          Directors, and each share of each series shall be
          identical with all other shares of such series, except 
          as to the date from which dividends are cumulative.  
          Subject to the provisions of subsections (A)-(F) of 
          this Division 1, which provisions shall apply to all 
          Preferred Shares, the Board of Directors is authorized
          to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series
          and with respect to each such series, prior to the 
          issuance thereof, to fix:

                    (i)  The division of such Preferred Shares
               into series and the designation and authorized 
               number of Preferred Shares of each series;

                    (ii)  The dividend or distribution rate;


<PAGE 14>

                    (iii)  The dates of payments of dividends or
               distributions, if declared, and the dates from
               which they are cumulative;

                    (iv)  The amounts payable in the event of any
               voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution
               or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

                    (v)  Redemption rights and price;

                    (vi)  The terms and amounts of any sinking
               fund provided for the purchase or redemption of 
               the Preferred Shares;

                    (vii)  Conversion rights; and

                    (viii)  Restrictions on the issuance of
               shares of any class or series.

          The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt, from
          time to time, amendments to the Articles of  
          Incorporation fixing, with respect to each such series,
          the matters described in this clauses (i) through 
          (viii) above.

          (B)  Dividend Preference.  The holders of Preferred
          Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of 
          Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking 
          junior to the Preferred Shares, shall be entitled to 
          receive, out of any funds legally available, when and 
          as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in 
          cash at the rate for such series fixed according to the
          provisions of subsection (A) of this Division 1 and no 
          more, payable quarterly on the dates fixed for such 
          series.  Such dividends shall be cumulative, in the 
          case of shares of each particular series, from and 
          after the date or dates fixed with respect to such 
          series.  No dividends may be paid upon or declared or 
          set apart for any of the Preferred Shares for any 
          quarterly dividend period unless at the same time a
          like proportionate dividend for the same quarterly
          dividend period, ratably in proportion to the
          respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall 
          be paid upon or declared or set apart for all Preferred
          Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and 
          entitled to receive such dividend.


          (C)  Restriction on Dividends to Junior Shares.  In no
          event as long as any Preferred Shares shall be


<PAGE 15>

          outstanding shall any dividends, except a dividend 
          payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior
          to the Preferred Shares, be paid or declared or any 
          distribution be made on the Common Shares or any other 
          shares ranking junior to the Preferred Shares, nor 
          shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking 
          junior to the Preferred Shares be purchased, retired or
          otherwise acquired by the Corporation:

                    (i)  Unless all accrued and unpaid dividends
          on Preferred Shares, including the full dividends for 
          the current quarterly dividend period, shall have been 
          declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment 
          thereof set apart; and

                    (ii)  Unless there shall be no arrearage with
          respect to the redemption of Preferred Shares of any 
          series from any sinking fund provided for shares of 
          such series in accordance with the provisions of clause
          (vi) of subsection (A) of this Division 1.

          (D)  Liquidation Preference.

               (i)  The holders of Preferred Shares of any series
          shall, in case of liquidation, dissolution or winding
          up of the affairs of the Corporation, be entitled to
          receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, 
          including its capital, before any amount shall be paid 
          or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares 
          or any other shares ranking junior to the Preferred 
          Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of 
          such series in accordance with subsection (A) of this 
          Division 1, plus in either event an amount equal to all
          dividends accrued and unpaid thereof to the date of 
          payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation,
          dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the 
          Corporation.  In case the net assets of the Corporation
          legally available therefor are insufficient to permit 
          the payment upon all outstanding shares of Preferred 
          Shares of the full preferential amount to which they 
          are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall 
          be distributed ratably upon outstanding Preferred 
          Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to
          which each such share is entitled;

               (ii)  After payment to holders of Preferred Shares
          of the full preferential amounts, holders of Preferred
          Shares as such shall have no right or claim to any of 
          the remaining assets of the Corporation; and


<PAGE 16>

               (iii)  The merger or consolidation of the
          Corporation into or with any other corporation, or the 
          merger of any other corporation into it, or the sale, 
          lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the 
          property or business of the Corporation, shall not be 
          deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, 
          voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes of this 
          Division 1.

          (E)  Voting Rights.

               (i)  Except as otherwise provided in this
          subsection (E), the holders of Preferred Shares shall 
          not be entitled to vote upon any matters presented to 
          the shareholders;

               (ii)  If, and as often as, the Corporation is in
          default in the payment of four (4) full quarterly
          dividends (whether or not consecutive) on any series of
          Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, whether or
          not earned or declared, the holders of Preferred Shares
          shall be entitled to one vote for each Preferred Share 
          upon all matters presented to the shareholders; and 
          provided further that the foregoing special voting 
          rights when vested shall remain so vested until all 
          accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Shares of
          all series then outstanding shall have been paid, 
          whereupon the holders of Preferred Shares shall be 
          divested of their special voting rights, subject to the
          revesting of such special voting rights upon the event 
          specified above;

               (iii)  The affirmative vote of the holders of at
          least two-thirds of the Preferred Shares at the time
          outstanding, given in person or by proxy at a meeting
          called for the purpose at which the holders of
          Preferred Shares shall vote separately as a class, 
          shall be necessary to effect any one or more of the

               powers, rights or preferences of the holders of 
               Preferred Shares; provided, however, that, for the
               purpose of this clause (a) only, neither the 
               amendment of the Articles of Incorporation so as 
               to authorize or create, or to increase the 
               authorized or outstanding amount of Preferred 


<PAGE 17>

               Shares or of any shares of any class ranking on a 
               parity with or junior to the Preferred Shares, nor
               the amendment of the provisions of the Regulations
               so as to increase the number of Directors of the 
               Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely   
               the voting powers, rights or preferences of the
               holders of Preferred Shares; and provided further,
               that if such amendment, alteration or repeal 
               affects adversely the rights or preferences of one
               or more but not all series of Preferred Shares at 
               the time outstanding, only the affirmative vote of
               the holders of at least two-thirds of the number 
               of shares at the time outstanding of the series so
               affected shall be required;

                    (b)  The authorization or creation of, or the
               increase in the authorized amount of, any shares
               of any class, or any security convertible into 
               shares of any class, ranking prior to the 
               Preferred Shares; or

                    (c)  The purchase or redemption (for sinking
               fund purposes or otherwise) of less than all of
               the Preferred Shares then outstanding except in
               accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all
               holders of record of Preferred Shares, unless all
               dividends upon all Preferred Shares then
               outstanding for all previous quarterly dividend 
               periods shall have been declared and paid or funds
               therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund 
               obligations applicable thereto shall have been 
               complied with.

               (iv)  The affirmative vote of the holders of at
          least a majority of the Preferred Shares at the time
          outstanding, given in person or by proxy at a meeting
          called for the purpose at which the holders of
          Preferred Shares shall vote separately as a class, 
          shall be necessary to effect any one or more of the 
          following:

                    (a)  The sale, lease or conveyance by the
               Corporation of all or substantially all of its
               property or business, or its consolidation with or
               merger into any other corporation unless the
               corporation resulting from such consolidation or
               merger will have after such consolidation or
               merger no class of shares either authorized or
               outstanding ranking prior to or on a parity with 
               the Preferred Shares except the same number of 


<PAGE 18>

               shares ranking prior to or on a parity with the 
               Preferred Shares and having the same rights and 
               preferences as the shares of the Corporation 
               authorized and outstanding immediately preceding 
               such consolidation or merger, and each holder of 
               Preferred Shares immediately preceding such 
               consolidation or merger shall receive the same 
               number of shares, with the same rights and
               preferences, of the resulting corporation; or

                    (b)  The authorization of any shares ranking
               on a parity with the Preferred Shares or an 
               increase in the authorized number of shares of

          (F)  Definitions.  For the purpose of the Division 1,
          whenever reference is made to shares "ranking prior to
          the Preferred Shares" or "on a parity with the 
          Preferred Shares," such reference shall mean and 
          include all shares of the Corporation in respect of 
          which the rights of the holders thereof as to the 
          payment of dividends or as to the distributions in the 
          event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, 
          dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the 
          Corporation are given preference over, or rank on an 
          equality with (as the case may be) the rights of the 
          holders of Preferred Shares; and whenever reference is 
          made to shares "ranking junior to the Preferred
          Shares," such reference shall mean and include all
          shares of the Corporation in respect of which the 
          rights of the holders thereof as to the payment of 
          dividends and as to the distributions in the event of a
          voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or 
          winding up of the affairs of the Corporation are junior
          and subordinate to the rights of the holders of 
          Preferred Shares.


Division 2.  EXPRESS TERMS OF THE COMMON SHARES.

          The Common Shares shall be subject to the express terms
          of the Preferred Shares and of any series thereof.

          its assets over the aggregate of its liabilities plus 
          stated capital;

               (ii)  The Corporation may in its regulations
          confer powers upon its board of directors in addition 
          to the powers and authorities conferred upon it 
          expressly by Sections 1701.01, et seq. of the Revised 
          Code of Ohio;

               (iii)  Any meeting of the shareholders or the
          board of directors may be held at any place within or 
          without the State of Ohio in the manner provided for in
          the regulations of the Corporation; and

               (iv)  Except as otherwise required by these
          Articles of Incorporation, but notwithstanding any 
          provision of the Ohio Revised Code now or hereafter in 
          force requiring for any purpose the vote, consent, 
          waiver or release of the holders of shares entitling 
          them to exercise two-thirds, or any other proportion,

          Articles of Incorporation may be made from time to 
          time, and any proposal or proposition requiring the 
          action of shareholders may be authorized from time to 
          time by the affirmative vote of the holders of shares 
          entitling them to exercise a majority of the voting 
          power of the Corporation.

          SIXTH:  No holder of shares of the Corporation of any
class, as such, shall have the preemptive right to subscribe for
or to purchase any shares of any class of the Corporation or any
other securities of the Corporation, whether such shares of such

          Combination is at least equal in value to such Related
          Person's Highest Purchase Price;

               (B)  After such Related Person has become the
          Beneficial Owner of not less than ten percent
          (10 percent) of the Voting Stock of the Corporation and
          prior to the consummation of such Business Combination,
          such Related Person shall not have become the
          Beneficial Owner of any additional shares of Voting
          Stock or securities convertible into Voting Stock, 
          except (i) as a part of the transaction which resulted


<PAGE 21>

          in such Related Person becoming the Beneficial owner of

the provisions of Article EIGHTH unless such amendment shall
receive the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty

however, that such voting requirement shall not be applicable to

DESCRIPTION OF INCENTIVE PLAN OF THE COMPANY



Incentive Plan

In 1993, the Company adopted a comprehensive Incentive
Compensation Plan, which provides annual incentive compensation
to all eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The Plan was effective January 1, 1994 for all officers and on
July 1, 1994 for all non-officer employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries.  Incentive compensation is based upon three
criteria, including overall financial performance of the Company
or the respective subsidiary, the achievement of work group or
departmental goals, and individual job performance.  The
proportional weighting of criteria is dependent upon the
participants job responsibilities and their ability to effect the
performance of the subsidiary or Company as a whole.  Incentive
award opportunities are expressed as a percentage of the
participant's base salary.



EXHIBIT 10.2



DESCRIPTION OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN OF THE COMPANY

of their officers pursuant to which the officer may elect to
defer a portion of his or her salary on an annual basis, which
is paid as a monthly benefit upon retirement.  Several deferred
compensation agreements contain a death benefit feature.  The
deferred compensation agreements are granted at the discretion of
the Boards of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries.

1.04 ADMINISTRATION
          
          The Plan shall be administered by the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Board"), which, to the extent it
shall determine, may delegate its powers with respect to the
administration of the Plan to a committee of directors (the
"Committee") appointed by the Board and composed of not less than
three (3) members of the Board.  If the Board chooses to appoint
a Committee, all references to the Board shall be deemed to refer
to the Committee.
          
          The Board from time to time may adopt (and thereafter
amend and rescind) rules and regulations for carrying out the


<PAGE  5>

Plan and take such action in the administration of the Plan, not
inconsistent with the provisions hereof, as it shall deem proper. 
The interpretation and construction of any provisions of the Plan
by the Board shall be final and conclusive.  No member of the
Board shall be liable for any action or determination made in

          The maximum number of shares of common stock of the
Company which may be issued upon exercise of options under the
Plan shall not exceed seven percent of the total shares
outstanding, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.02
(a).  The shares to be transferred or sold under the Plan shall
be authorized but unissued shares of common stock or authorized
shares held as treasury stock.  The Company shall purchase any    
other shares required for the Plan on the open market or from
private sources. In the event that any options under the Plan
expire or are terminated, the shares of common stock of the
Company allocable to the unexercised portion of all such options
may again be subject to an option or transfer under the Plan.

1.06 ELIGIBILITY

          (a)  "Grant Options" may be awarded from time to time
               only to Officers, Directors and Key Employees of
               the Company.  The Board will, in its discretion,
               determine the Officers and Key Employees to be
               awarded "Grant Options", the time or times at
               which such options shall be granted and in
               connection therewith, the number of shares to be
               covered by each grant of such options and the
               manner in which they may be exercised.  In making
               this determination, the Board may take into
               consideration the value of the services rendered
               by the respective individuals, their present
               and/or potential contributions to the success of
               the Company and such other factors which the Board
               may deem relevant in accomplishing the purpose of
               the Plan.  All terms and conditions of "Grant
               Options", other than options granted to
               Non-employee Directors, shall be subject to all
               restrictions and conditions imposed by the
               Board,and these terms and conditions need not be
               the same for all Optionees of "Grant Options".
               Eligible Directors are all Non-employee Directors
               of the Company.  The award of "Grant Options" to
               these Non-employee Directors is not subject to the
               discretion of the Board.  Directors serving on the


<PAGE  6>

               Committee who are Non-employee Directors may

                    Also, following adoption of the Plan, each

                    subsidiaries of the Company shall be granted
                    an option for 700 shares of stock.

               (2)  Each person subsequently elected or appointed
                    to serve as a non-employee director of the
                    Company or its subsidiaries after adoption of
                    this Plan shall, upon his or her initial
                    appointment or election automatically be
                    granted an option for 1,000 shares of stock
                    if a director of the Company or for 700

                    Company's subsidiaries, if elected or
                    appointed more than six months prior to the
                    third Thursday of November in any given
                    year.If elected or appointed less than six
                    months prior to the third Thursday of
                    November in any given year, the director
                    shall receive the initial grant of 1,000 or
                    700 shares respectively, on the annual grant
                    date of the third Thursday of November, in
                    lieu of the annual grant of 500 or 350
                    shares, respectively.

               (3)  Beginning on the third Thursday in November
                    in the year immediately succeeding adoption
                    of this Plan, and continuing each third
                    Thursday in November thereafter, each

                    shares of stock and each non-employee
                    director of any subsidiary of the Company
                    shall automatically be granted an option for
                    350 shares of stock.

               (4)  If any director serves as a director of both

                    he or she shall be entitled only to one
                    initial and one yearly grant, which shall in


<PAGE  7>

                    each case be the larger grant to which he or
                    she is entitled.

          (c)  Elective Options

               "Elective Options" may be granted to Non-employee
               Directors and to all employees of the Company in
               lieu of cash compensation.  The Board will, in its
               discretion, determine which employees are entitled
               to elect options in lieu of cash compensation, the
               amount of cash compensation for which "Elective
               Options" may be elected as a substitution, the
               time or times at which such elections must be
               made and such options shall be granted in this
               manner, the number of shares to be covered by each
               grant of "Elective Options", and the manner in
               which such options may be exercised.  In making
               this determination, the Board may take into
               consideration the current and prospective economic
               condition of the Company and such other factors
               which the Board may deem relevant in accomplishing
               the purpose of the Plan.  All terms and conditions
               of options granted, other than options granted to
               Non-employee Directors, shall be subject to all
               restrictions and conditions imposed by the Board,
               and these terms and conditions need not be the
               same for all Optionees.  Any Optionee subject to
               Section 16 of the Exchange Act receiving Elective
               Options" shall not sell any shares of the
               Company's stock (whether related to an option or
               not) within six months of an "Elective Option"
               grant, without the prior approval of the          
               Company's General Counsel.  Directors eligible
               for "Elective Options" are all Non-employee 
               Directors of the Company.  Directors serving on 
               the committee who are Non-employee Directors may 
               receive "Elective Options".

          (d) Elective Options to Non-employee Directors

               (1) In accordance with Rule 16b-3(c)(2)(i)(C),
               promulgated under Section 16 of the Securities
               Exchange Act of 1934, each Non-employee Director
               may elect to receive options for a number of
               shares equivalent to a portion or the entire
               amount of retainer and attendance fees the
               Non-employee Director would normally be entitled
               to receive in cash.  Equivalency will be
               determined by a wholly independent third party
               using a fixed schedule of payments for retainers


<PAGE  8>

               and attendance fees.

               (2) By June 30, 1994 or by December 31st of each
               year thereafter, to the extent that "Elective
               Options" are offered, a Non-employee Director may
               elect, in writing, to receive all or a percentage
               of his or her retainer and attendance fees, for
               the immediately following six-month period, in
               "Elective Options" in lieu of cash.  The written
               election to receive "Elective Options" in lieu of
               cash must state the portion of compensation that a
               Non-employee Director wishes to receive in
               "Elective Options".

               (3) A written election to receive "Elective
               Options" remains in effect and is irrevocable for
               the immediately following period and applies to
               each subsequent period unless the election
               expressly provides otherwise or until it is
               revoked or changed, prior to the commencement of 
               the next period.  It must include a designation of
               beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive amounts
               distributable in the event of Optionee's death.

          (e)  Nothing in the Plan, or in any grant of options
               shall confer on any person any right to continue
               in the employ of the Company, nor interfere with
               the right of the Company to terminate the person's
               employment at any time.  No employee shall have a
               right to be selected as an Optionee, nor, having
               been so selected, to be selected again as an
               Optionee.

          It is the intent of the Plan that options granted shall
be Incentive Stock Options as that term is defined in Section
422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time
to time (the "Code"), to the extent, and only to the extent, that
these options are so identified in writing.  All options not
identified as Incentive Stock Options at the time of grant are
intended to be "nonqualified" or "nonstatutory" stock options
which are not Incentive Stock Options.

2.02 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

by a Stock Option Agreement in a form not inconsistent with the
Plan, provided that the substance of the following terms and
conditions be included:

               common stock covered by the Option may be
               purchased shall be determined by the Board, but
               shall not be less than 100 percent of the fair 
               market value of the common stock subject to the
               stock option on the date of grant.  Fair market
               value shall be defined as the closing price on
               the National Market System's NASDAQ quotation
               service on the trading day immediately preceding
               grant.

          (b)  Term of Option:  The Option and any related right
               shall not be exercisable after the expiration of
               ten (10) years from the date the option was
               granted.

          (c)  Nontransferable:  The Option and any related right
               shall not be transferable by Optionee otherwise
               than by will or by the laws of descent and
               distribution and may be exercised, during
               Optionee's lifetime, only by Optionee.

          (d)  Upon the termination of Optionee's employment by
               the Company or relationship with the Board for any
               reason other than death, Optionee may exercise
               available Options pursuant to Section 2.04 of the
               Plan until the earlier of the expiration of its

                    (1) year after termination;

               3)   if termination is for any other reason, two
                    (2) months after the date of notice of
                    termination, provided however, that in the
                    case of Elective Options and termination is
                    not for cause, one (1) year after

                    person or persons to whom Optionee's rights
                    under the option shall pass by Optionee's
                    will or the laws of descent and
                    distribution,and

               2)   if and to the extent that Optionee was
                    entitled to exercise the option at the date
                    of Optionee's death, provided that in no
                    event shall the option be exercisable more
                    than ten (10) years after the date it was

               and one-fifth on each of the four succeeding
               anniversaries, provided the Officer or Key
               Employee remains in the employ of the Company on
               those respective dates.  An Officer or Key
               Employee Optionee's right to purchase shares with

                    dividends or other rights for which the
                    record date is prior to the date a stock

               the Fair Market Value on the last business day
               preceding the exercise date to pay all or part of

               be deemed to be, a holder of any shares subject to
               an option unless and until a stock certificate or
               certificates for the shares are issued to this
               person or them under the terms of the Plan.

          (f)  No option may, at any time, be exercised with

                            GENERAL PROVISIONS

          Each Optionee shall, as a condition of exercising an

Taxes").  Withholding Taxes shall be payable as of the date

(or a combination), which election is subject to the approval of
the Board:

          (a)  remitting to the Company in cash or by check the
               amount of the Withholding Taxes;

          (b)  remitting to the Company a number of shares of
               common stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value
               as of the last business day preceding the Tax Date
               equal to the amount of the Withholding Taxes;

          (c)  electing to have the Company withhold from the
               distribution the number of shares of common stock

               last business day preceding the Tax Date equal to
               the amount of the Withholding Taxes.

          Any election by Optionee pursuant to clause (b) or (c)
of this Section 3.01 must be made on or prior to the Tax Date and
is irrevocable.  In addition, if Optionee is subject to Section
16 of the Exchange Act, an election pursuant to clause (b) or (c)
of this Section 3.01 cannot be made until at least six (6) months
after the Grant Date (except that this limitation shall not apply
in the event the death or disability of Optionee occurs prior to
the expiration of the six (6) month period), and election must be
made either by the date which is at least six (6) months prior to
the Tax Date or during any period beginning prior to the Tax Date
which begins on the third business day following the date of
release for publication by the Company of quarterly or annual
summary statements of earnings and ending on the twelfth business
day following this date.

3.02 CHANGE IN STOCK, ADJUSTMENTS, ETC.

          (a)  In the event that the outstanding shares of common
               stock of the Company are increased or decreased or
               changed into or exchanged for a different number
               of  shares or kind of shares or other securities
               of the Company or of another corporation, by
               reason of reorganization, merger, consolidation,
               recapitalization, reclassification, stock split,
               combination of shares, or a dividend payable in
               capital stock, appropriate adjustment shall be
               made by the Board in the number and kind of
               shares for the purchase of which options may be
               granted under the Plan.  In addition, the Board
               shall make appropriate adjustment in the number
               and kind of shares as to which outstanding
               options, or portions thereof then unexercised,
               shall be exercisable, to the end that the
               Optionee's proportionate interest shall be
               maintained as before the occurrence of such
               event, and this adjustment of outstanding options
               shall be made without change of the total price
               applicable to the unexercised portion of the
               option and with a corresponding adjustment in the
               Option Price per share; provided, however, that
               each such adjustment in the number and kind of
               shares subject to outstanding options, including
               any adjustment in the Option Price, shall be made
               in a manner which will not establish a new
               measurement date for the purposes of determining
               compensation expense under the provisions of the
               Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 -
               Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, as
               amended.  The grant of an option pursuant to the
               Plan shall not affect in any way the right or
               power of the Company to make adjustments,
               reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of
               its capital or business structure or to merge or
               to consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate or sell,
               or transfer all or any part of its business or
               assets.

          (b)  Change in Control.  Upon the Change in Control of
               the Company, as defined below, each stock option
               granted shall be immediately vested and fully
               exercisable as of the effective date of the Change
               in Control.  After the effective date of the
               Change in Control, the option shall remain fully
               exercisable until it would otherwise expire by
               reason of lapse of time.  "Change in Control"

EXHIBIT 10.4



DESCRIPTION OF EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP AND
PENSION PLAN OF THE COMPANY



ESOP Pension Plan

The Company maintains a money purchase employee stock ownership
pension plan (the "Pension Plan"), which is designed to meet the
requirements of an employee stock ownership plan under Section
4975(e)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 407(d)(6) of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The Pension
Plan provides for mandatory contributions by the Company in the
form of either common stock or cash which will be used
predominantly to purchase common stock of the Company.  All
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to
participate in the Pension Plan after they attain the age of 21
and have completed one year of service during which the employee
is credited with at least 1,000 hours of service.  The Company
credits each eligible participant's account with cash or common
stock of the Company equal to six percent of the employee's
compensation earned during the year with respect to which the
contribution is made.  Contributions credited to a participant's
account are generally not vested until the completion of the
fifth year of service, at which time the contributions become
fully vested.  Pension Plan participants are entitled to receive
distributions from their Pension Plan accounts only upon
retirement, death, total disability, or termination of service.  
Distributions may be made in either cash or common stock of the
Company and may be paid in lump sum or in the form of an annuity. 

Participating employees are entitled to instruct the trustee of
the Pension Plan how to vote the shares of the Company's common
stock held in their account.  The trustee of the Pension Plan,
Mid American National Bank, purchases the shares of the Company's
common stock either directly from the Company or on the open
market, and has dispositive powers over the shares. 



EXHIBIT 10.5



DESCRIPTION OF EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP AND
SAVINGS PLAN OF THE COMPANY (401K)



Profit Sharing / 401(k) Savings Plan

The Company also maintains an employee stock ownership and
savings plan (the "Profit Sharing/Savings Plan"), which is
designed to provide discretionary contributions by the Company to
eligible employees' accounts based upon the profitability of the
Company and to provide a means of voluntary tax-free salary
deferral for employees pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code.  The profit sharing aspect of the Profit
Sharing/Savings Plan provides for discretionary contributions by
the Company in the form of the Company's common stock or cash
which will be used predominantly to purchase common stock of the
Company.  The Company may, at its sole discretion, credit
eligible participants' accounts with cash or the Company's common
stock of up to three percent of the employee's annual
compensation.  Eligibility requirements, vesting parameters,
termination and distribution rules are substantially identical to
those of the Pension Plan.

The Profit Sharing/Savings Plan also contains a 401(k) salary
deferral provision, which enables eligible employees to defer a
percentage of their annual compensation, not to exceed the
maximum amount permitted under the Internal Revenue Code.  The
Company also matches, dollar-for-dollar, the amount deferred by
eligible employees, for a maximum matching contribution of three
percent of the participant's annual compensation.  Participants
may direct their deferral compensation, including any matching
contributions, into several investment alternatives.






EXHIBIT 10.6



PENSION MAKE-UP PLAN OF THE COMPANY (SERP)



Make Up Plan

In 1993, the Company adopted a funded, non-qualified supplemental
executive retirement plan ("the Make Up Plan"), due to
limitations imposed by federal law on the amount of retirement
income that may be paid through the Pension Plan and Profit
Sharing Plan.  Under the Make Up Plan, any employee whose
benefits under the Pension Plan and Profit Sharing Plan would
exceed the maximum benefit limitations imposed by Section 402(g)
of the Internal Revenue Code, will receive under the Make Up Plan
an amount equal to the benefit the participant would have
received without regard to the limitations minus the amount
actually received under the Pension Plan and Profit Sharing Plan.
Benefits under the Make Up Plan are funded annually with the
Company's common stock, and are held in an irrevocable trust for
the benefit of the participants.  Payments under the Make Up Plan
have no effect on the funding or availability of funds under the
Company's Pension Plan and Profit Sharing Plan.

The Make Up Plan follows this description.



MID AM, INC.

PENSION MAKE UP PLAN

WHEREAS, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA") requires that limits be set on the maximum benefits
which may be paid from a tax-qualified defined contribution
retirement plan to a Participant in such a plan; and

WHEREAS, the Mid Am, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership & Savings Plan
was effective January 1, 1975, and includes nondiscrimination
limitations as imposed under Section 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code as well as maximum benefit limitations imposed by
Section 415 and Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code;
and

WHEREAS, the Mid Am, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Pension Plan
was effective July 1, 1989, and included benefit limitations
imposed by Section 415 and Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal
Revenue Code; and

WHEREAS, Mid Am, Inc. (the "Corporation") intends to adopt this
non-qualified "top hat" retirement benefit plan effective  
January 1, 1993, so that a Participant may receive a benefit
equal to the contribution that cannot be paid under the Basic
Plans due to the limits placed on the benefit amounts by Sections
401(k), 402(g), 401(a)(17) and 415(c) and related sections of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as may be amended from time to
time.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Corporation adopts the Mid Am, Inc. Pension
Make-up Plan ("Plan") for certain employees who participate in
the Basic Plans (the "Participants") for the purpose of providing
an opportunity for Participants to defer compensation and to
receive any Corporation matching and other non-elective
contributions which cannot be paid under the Basic Plans because
of the restrictions imposed by ERISA and the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986.  The Corporation promises to purchase stock for
each Participant to pay the benefits defined to Participants, or

1. The amount which is equal to the excess, if any, of A over B,
where:

"A" is the amount of the maximum matching contribution that would
have been contributed to the Savings Plan for the year determined
without the limitations imposed by Section 415(c), Section
401(k), Section 401(m), Section 402(g) or Section 401(a)(17) of

sufficient amount of his or her Annual Compensation to maximize
the matching contribution (regardless of whether or not the
Participant has made such election); and

Participant to the Savings Plan, and

2. The amount which is equal to the excess, if any, of C over D,
where:

"C" is the sum of the amount of the Employer Pension
Contribution in the Pension Plan plus the amount of the Employer
Profit Sharing Contribution in the Savings Plan that would have
been contributed to the Basic Plans for the year based on his or
her Annual Compensation and determined without the limitations
imposed by Sections 401(a)(17) and 415(c); and

"D" is the sum of the actual Employer Pension Contribution plus
Employer Profit Sharing Contribution allocated to the Participant
in the Basic Plans.

In calculating the Pension Make-up amounts as set forth above,
Annual Compensation includes compensation as defined in the Basic
Plans (but without regard to the limitation imposed by Section
401(a)(17)), plus any compensation which the Participant has
elected to defer pursuant to any non-qualified deferred
compensation arrangement with the Corporation.

The Pension Make-up amounts shall be credited to the
Participant's Account on the last day of the Plan Year with
respect to which the amounts would have been contributed to the
Basic Plans had it not been for the limitations imposed by the
Code.

The Corporation shall establish the Rabbi Trust and make
contributions to it for the purpose of providing a source of
funds to meet the liabilities under the Plan.

Contributions to the Rabbi Trust shall be made by the Corporation
on the third Thursday of January of each year, or as soon
thereafter as administratively practical and can be made in the
form of cash or Stock.

Contributions made in Stock will generally be acquired through
purchase on the open market by a third party purchasing agent on
the date upon which the Contributions are made by the
Corporation.

Page 5
It is contemplated that the Rabbi Trust will generally invest all
cash contributions made to it in Stock as soon as
administratively practical following each Plan Year for which
contributions are made. If cash contributions are made to the
Rabbi Trust which are not immediately invested in Stock, or the
Rabbi Trust receives cash dividends on Stock which are not
immediately reinvested, such amounts shall be invested in
interest bearing accounts and accrue interest until invested in
Stock.

The Account of each Participant shall be adjusted at least
annually or more frequently as determined by the Special
Projects Committee. For each measurement period, any interest,
dividends, gains, losses, appreciation or depreciation of the
assets (i.e., principally Stock and interest bearing accounts) of
the Rabbi Trust shall be accounted for and used to adjust the
value of the Participant's Account on a reasonable basis as
determined by the Special Projects Committee.

Each Participant shall be entitled to the full amount of all
appreciation in value of any Stock allocated or considered
allocated to his or her Account, including, without limitation,
all stock and cash dividends, stock splits, or rights offerings,
subject to all vesting requirements, as set forth in Article V.

ARTICLE IV
TIMING OF BENEFITS

Payments of benefits under this Plan shall be paid within 30 days
of the later of attainment of age 65 or separation from service.
In the event that the Participant shall die or become disabled
prior to separation from service, any amount due him or her under
this Agreement will vest immediately and will be paid at that
time to the Participant, the Participant's spouse or such other
Beneficiary as the Participant shall have designated. With
respect to any benefit payments under this Plan, the Corporation
shall withhold as required by applicable tax law.

Benefits will be paid to the Participant in cash or Stock, or a
combination of both, at the option of the Corporation. The
Corporation shall have the right to direct the Trustee of the
Rabbi Trust to sell sufficient shares of Stock to allow the Rabbi
Trust and/or the Corporation, as appropriate, to make the proper
tax withholdings and deposits as required by law.

In the event a Participant encounters a hardship resulting from
circumstances of sufficient severity that a Participant is
confronted by present or impending financial ruin, the Special
Projects Committee may permit a distribution of the vested value
of the Participant's Accounts up to an amount necessary to cure
the hardship. Any request for such a distribution must be made by
the Participant in writing to the Special Projects Committee for
disposition.

In the event of involuntary termination or Diminution of Status
of Participant's employment other than for cause, in connection
with or within two years after a Change in Control, payment of
all vested benefits due under this Plan shall be made in a lump
sum cash amount within 30 days after the effective date of
involuntary termination or Diminution of Status.

Page 6
ARTICLE V
VESTING

Subject to the right of the Corporation to discontinue the Plan,
as provided in Article VIII hereof, a Participant shall have a
nonforfeitable interest in benefits payable under the Plan to the
same extent the Participant is vested in his or her benefits
under the Basic Plans.

Notwithstanding the above, upon a Change in Control, all benefits
under the Plan shall be immediately vested. Should a Participant
retire before the age of 65, the Special Projects Committee shall
have the discretion to immediately vest all benefits accrued by
the Participant under the Plan.

ARTICLE VI
FUNDING

Benefits under this Plan shall be paid from the general assets of
the Corporation as set aside in the Rabbi Trust. This Plan shall
be administered as an unfunded plan which is maintained primarily
for the purpose of providing supplemental retirement compensation
"for a select group of management or highly compensated
employees" as set forth in Sections 201(2), 301(3), and 401(a)(1)
of the Act, and is not intended to meet the qualification
requirements of Section 401 of the Code. Any assets set aside in
the Rabbi Trust shall not be deemed to be the property of the
Participant. No Participant or Beneficiary shall be entitled to
receive any payment for benefits under this Plan from the
qualified trust maintained for the Basic Plans.

ARTICLE Vll
PLAN ADMINISTRATION

This Plan shall be operated under the direction of the Board of
Directors and administered by the Special Projects Committee in a
manner consistent with the operation and administration of the
Basic Plans. A Special Projects Committee decision in any matter
involving the interpretation and application of this Plan shall
be final and binding. All questions or interpretations shall be
governed by the local laws of the state of Ohio unless
specifically preempted by the Act.

Page 7
ARTICLE VIII
AMENDMENT AND DISCONTINUANCE

Mid Am, Inc. hereby reserves the right and power, by action of
its Board of Directors, to amend, suspend or terminate this Plan
in whole or in part, at any time. However, in no event shall Mid
Am, Inc. have the right to eliminate or reduce any benefit which
has been vested or become nonforfeitable under the Plan, subject
to Article V hereof. This Plan confers no additional rights to
any Participant or Employee of the Corporation and shall not be
construed to be a promise to continue the employment of any
Employee or a Participant.

TRUST AGREEMENT


January 1993

MID AM, INC.

TRUST AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT made this      day of            , 19 , by and
between Mid Am, Inc. (the Corporation) and Mid Am Bank and Trust
(Trustee):

WHEREAS, the Corporation has adopted the Mid Am, Inc. Pension
Make-up Plan, a non-qualified deferred compensation plan designed
to replace certain retirement benefits; and.

WHEREAS, the Corporation has incurred or expects to incur
liability under the terms of such Plan with respect to the
individuals participating in such Plan; and

WHEREAS, the Corporation wishes to establish a trust (hereinafter
called "Trust") and to contribute to the Trust assets that shall
be held therein, subject to the claims of the Corporation's
creditors in the event of the Corporation's Insolvency, as herein
defined, until paid to Plan participants and their beneficiaries
in such manner and at such times as specified in the Plan; and

WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that this Trust shall
constitute an unfunded arrangement and shall not affect the
status of the Plan as an unfunded plan maintained for the purpose
of providing deferred compensation for a select group of
management or highly compensated employees for purposes of Title
I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; and

WHEREAS, it is the intention of the Corporation to make
contributions to the Trust to provide itself with a source of
funds to assist it in the meeting of its liabilities under the
Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties do hereby establish the Trust and
agree that the Trust shall be comprised, held and disposed of as
follows:

Page 1
SECTION 1
ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUST

The Corporation hereby deposits with Trustee in trust Mid Am
Stock, which shall become the principal of the Trust to be held,
administered and disposed of by Trustee as provided in this Trust
Agreement.

The Trust hereby established shall be irrevocable.

The Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, of which the
Corporation is the grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part
I, subchapter J, chapter 1, subtitle A of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed accordingly.

The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon shall be
held separate and apart from other funds of the Corporation and
shall be used exclusively for the uses and purposes of Plan
participants and general creditors as herein set forth. Plan
participants and their beneficiaries shall have no preferred
claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of
the Trust. Any rights created under the Plan and this Trust
Agreement shall be mere unsecured contractual rights of Plan
participants and their beneficiaries against the Corporation. Any
assets held by the Trust will be subject to the claims of the
Corporation's general creditors under federal and state law in
the event of Insolvency, as defined in Section 3(a) herein.

The Corporation, in its sole discretion, may at any time, or from
time to time, make additional deposits of cash or other property
in trust with Trustee to augment the principal to be held,
administered and disposed of by Trustee as provided in this Trust
Agreement. Neither Trustee nor any Plan participant or
beneficiary shall have any right to compel such additional
deposits.

SECTION 2
PAYMENTS TO PLAN PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR BENEFlCIARIES

The Corporation shall deliver to Trustee a schedule (the "Payment
Schedule") that indicates the amounts payable in respect of each
Plan participant (and his or her beneficiaries), that provides a
formula or other instructions acceptable to Trustee for
determining the amount so payable, the form in which such amount
is to be paid (as provided for or available under the Plan), and
the time of commencement for payment of such amounts. Except as
otherwise provided herein, Trustee shall make payments to the
Plan participants and their beneficiaries in accordance with such
Payment Schedule. The Trustee shall make provision for the
reporting and withholding of any federal, state or local taxes
that may be required to be withheld with respect to the payment
of benefits pursuant to the terms of the Plan and shall pay
amounts withheld to the appropriate taxing authorities or
determine that such amounts have been reported, withheld and
paid by the Corporation.

Page 2
The entitlement of a Plan participant or his or her beneficiaries
to benefits under the Plan shall be determined be the Corporation
or such party as it shall designate under the Plan, and any claim
for such benefit shall be considered and reviewed under the
procedures set out in the Plan.

The Corporation may make payment of benefits directly to Plan
participants or their beneficiaries as they become due under the
terms of the Plan. The Corporation shall notify Trustee of its
decision to make payment of benefits directly prior to the time
amounts are payable to participants or their beneficiaries. In
addition, if the principal of the Trust, and any earnings
thereon, are not sufficient to make payments of benefits in
accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Corporation shall make
the balance of each such payment as it falls due. Trustee shall
notify the Corporation where principal and earnings are not
sufficient.

SECTION 3
TRUSTEE RESPONSIBILITY REGARDING PAYMENTS TO TRUST
BENEFICIARY WHEN THE CORPORATION IS INSOLVENT

Trustee shall cease payment of benefits to Plan participants and
their beneficiaries if the Corporation is Insolvent. The
Corporation shall be considered "Insolvent" for purposes of this
Trust Agreement if (i) the Corporation is unable to pay its debts
as they become due, or (ii) the Corporation is subject to a
pending proceeding as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy
Code, or (iii) the Corporation is determined to be insolvent by a
banking authority.

At all times during the continuance of this Trust, as provided in
Section 1(d) hereof, the principal and income of the Trust shall
be subject to claims of general creditors of the Corporation
under federal and state law as set forth below.

The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the
Corporation shall have the duty to inform Trustee in writing of
the Corporation's Insolvency. If a person claiming to be a
creditor of the Corporation alleges in writing to Trustee that
the Corporation has become Insolvent, Trustee shall determine
whether the Corporation is Insolvent and pending such
determination, Trustee shall discontinue payment of benefits to
Plan participants or their beneficiaries.

Unless Trustee has actual knowledge of the Corporation's
Insolvency, or has received notice from the Corporation or a
person claiming to be a creditor alleging that the Corporation is
Insolvent, Trustee shall have no duty to inquire whether the
Corporation is Insolvent. Trustee may in all events rely on such
evidence concerning the Corporation's solvency as may be
furnished to Trustee and that provides Trustee with a reasonable
basis for making a determination concerning the Corporation's
solvency.

If at any time Trustee has determined that the Corporation is
Insolvent, Trustee shall discontinue payments to Plan
participants or their beneficiaries and shall hold the assets of
the Trust for the benefit of the Corporation's general creditors.
Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall in any way diminish any
rights of Plan participants or their beneficiaries to pursue
their rights as general creditors of the Corporation with respect
to benefits due under the Plan or otherwise.

Trustee shall resume the payment of benefits to Plan participants
or their beneficiaries in accordance with Section 2 of this Trust
Agreement only after Trustee has determined that the Corporation
is not Insolvent (or is no longer insolvent).


Page 3





























Provided that there are sufficient assets, if Trustee
discontinues the payment of benefits from the Trust pursuant to
Section 3(b) hereof and subsequently resumes such payments, the
first payment following such discontinuance shall include the
aggregate amount of all payments due to Plan participants or
their beneficiaries under the terms of the Plan for the period
of such discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of any
payments made to Plan participants or their beneficiaries by
the Corporation in lieu of the payments provided for hereunder
during any such period of discontinuance.

SECTION 4
INVESTMENT AUTHORITY

Trustee may invest in securities (including stock or rights to
acquire stock) or obligations issued by the Corporation. All
rights associated with assets of the Trust shall be exercised by
Trustee or the person designated by Trustee, and shall in no
event be exercisable by or rest with Plan participants.

The Corporation shall have the right at anytime, and from time to
time in its sole discretion, to substitute assets of equal fair
market value for any asset held by the Trust. This right is
exercisable by the Corporation in a non-fiduciary capacity
without
the approval or consent of any person in a fiduciary capacity.

net of expenses and taxes, shall be accumulated and reinvested.

SECTION 6
ACCOUNTING BY TRUSTEE

investments, receipts, disbursements, and all other transactions
required to be made, including such specific records as shall be

within 45 days after the removal or resignation of Trustee,
Trustee shall deliver to the Corporation a written account of its
administration of the Trust during such year or during the
period from the close of the last preceding year to the date of

purchases or sales (accrued interest paid or receivable being

property held in the Trust at the end of such year or as of the
date of such removal or resignation, as the case may be.

SECTION 7
RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTEE

Trustee shall act with the care, skill, prudence and diligence
under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent person
acting in like capacity and familiar with such matters would use
in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like
aims, provided, however, that Trustee shall incur no liability to
any person for any action taken pursuant to a direction, request
or approval given by the Corporation which is contemplated by,
and in conformity with, the terms of the Plan or this Trust and
is given in writing by the Corporation. In the event of a dispute
between the Corporation and a party, Trustee may apply to a court
of competent jurisdiction to resolve the dispute.

Trustee may consult with legal counsel (who may also be counsel
for the Corporation generally) with respect to any of its duties
or obligations hereunder.

Trustee may hire agents, accountants, actuaries, investment
advisors, financial consultants or other professionals to assist
it in performing any of its duties or obligations hereunder.

Trustee shall have, without exclusion, all powers conferred on
Trustees by applicable law, unless expressly provided otherwise
herein, provided, however, that if an insurance policy is held as
an asset of the Trust, Trustee shall have no power to name a
beneficiary of the policy other than the Trust, to assign the
policy (as distinct from conversion of the policy to a different
form) other than to a successor Trustee, or to loan to any person
the proceeds of any borrowing against such policy.

Notwithstanding any powers granted to Trustee pursuant to this
Trust Agreement or to applicable law, Trustee shall not have any
power that could give this Trust the objective of carrying on a
business and dividing the gains therefrom, within the meaning of
section 301.7701-2 of the Procedure and Administrative
Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code.




SECTION 8

Upon resignation or removal of Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee, all assets shall subsequently be transferred
to the successor Trustee. The transfer shall be completed within
60 days after receipt of notice of resignation, removal or
transfer, unless the Corporation extends the time limit.

If Trustee resigns or is removed, a successor shall be appointed,
in accordance with Section 10 hereof, by the effective date of

EXHIBIT 10.7



FORM OF CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENTS WITH CERTAIN
EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY



Change in Control Agreements

In order to assure continuity of management and operations, the
Company and its subsidiaries have Change in Control Agreements
(the "Agreements") with certain of their executive officers.
During the term of the Agreements, the executive officers have
agreed, among other things, to devote their time, skill, energy
and attention to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries
and to perform their duties in a diligent, trustworthy, loyal,
businesslike and efficient manner.  The base salary of these
employees will continue to be determined in accordance with
normal corporate procedures and can be adjusted at any time.  In
addition, the executive officers will continue to participate in
the benefit plans available to all employees.

Pursuant to the Agreements, the Company and its subsidiaries
could terminate an executive officer's employment without
liability under the contract for any reason, or for no reason,
with or without notice.  The Agreements do not change the
employees' status as employees at will in accordance with the
laws of the State of Ohio.  In the event of involuntary
termination or diminution of status, without cause, after a
change in control (as defined), the employees would be entitled
to compensation under the Agreements in an amount equal to
between one and one-half to two and one-half times the employee's
average total compensation (depending upon the officer's level)
for the immediately preceding two years, payable in lump sum or
monthly installments.  However, the Company and any of its
subsidiaries are not obligated to pay any amount which is in
excess of the then maximum amount which they can deduct for
federal income tax purposes.  For purposes of the Agreements, a
change in control is defined as a merger or consolidation with or
into any other corporation where the Company is not the surviving
corporation, certain situations involving the issuance of,
ownership, or control of in excess of 24.99 percent of the
outstanding common stock or assets of the Company, or the
removal, termination or retirement of more than 49 percent of the
members of the Board of Directors.

The form of Change in Control Agreement follows this description.


<PAGE  2>

MID AM, INC.

1997 AMENDMENT TO CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENTS


All Change in Control Agreements entered into by the Company,
including any amended and restated agreements (the "Agreements"),
are hereby amended in the following manner.


Article II

Section 2.  An additional Subsection (C) shall be added to read
as follows:

        C.  Continuation of Life and Long-Term Disability
Benefits.  During the [       ] year period after involuntary
termination or diminution of status of Employee's employment,
Employee shall be also entitled to participate in the Company's
life and long-term disability plan or plans, at a level identical
to that in effect at the time of termination or diminution of
status, at company's expense, regardless of whether Company is
partially of fully self-insured.  Company will continue payment
for these benefits unless impermissible under applicable law. 
These payments are subject to reduction to the extent necessary
so that they do not constitute "excess parachute payments" under
the Internal Revenue Code and so that they violate no applicable
law governing executive compensation.  These payments may be
terminated if Employee receives comparable benefits through other
full-time employment with an unaffiliated employer.  Upon
expiration of this [       ] year period, Employee shall be
permitted to participate in Company's life or long-term
disability plan or plans, at Employee's costs (which cost shall
be equal to the Employee cost charged to other employees of the
Company) until Employee's death.

The blanks shall reflect the time periods established by title
and level of the various employees.

Employees who currently have Agreements will execute amendments
reflecting this change.  Any employees entering into such
Agreements in the future will receive an Agreement which
incorporates this Amendment.

Remainder of the Agreements.  Any Article, Section or Subsection
of the Agreements not expressly amended shall remain unchanged
and shall continue to exist exactly as originally set forth in
the Agreements.  All of the provisions of the Agreements shall
remain in full force and effect as written, unless modified by
this Amendment.


<PAGE  3>

Effective Date of Amendment.  This Amendment shall become
effective November 21, 1996.

Adopted by the Board of Directors this 21st day of November,
1996.

Internal Revenue Code and so that they violate no applicable law
governing executive compensation. These payments may be

employer. Upon expiration of this one and one-half year period,
Employee shall be permitted to participate in Company's health

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                          AND STATISTICAL INFORMATION
 
     The following discussion and analysis represents a review of the Company's
consolidated financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital
resources. This review should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
     Net income in 1996 increased $1,025,000 or 4% to $25,992,000, as compared
to net income in 1995 of $24,967,000 and $23,253,000 in 1994. Fully diluted
earnings per share were $1.07, up from $1.01 in 1995 and $.94 in 1994. In 1996,
return on average common shareholders' equity was 15.01% and return on average
assets was 1.20% as compared to 14.51% and 1.17% in 1995, and 13.88% and 1.14%
in 1994. The increase in 1996 earnings was primarily due to a net pre-tax gain
on the sale of the Company's credit card portfolio of $4,568,000, an improved
net interest margin, an increase in mortgage banking revenues of $2,229,000
caused by increased volume in mortgage loan sales and an increase in other
fee-based revenue, offset partially by a one-time Savings Association Insurance
Fund ("SAIF") assessment of $3,563,000 and higher employee expenses caused by
various Florida collection agency acquisitions and the formation of a new
company, Mid Am Credit Corp. The increase in 1995 earnings compared to 1994 was
primarily attributable to an increase in net gains on sales of loans of
$1,572,000, expense control and a decrease in deposit Bank Insurance Fund
premium expense.
 
     The provision for credit losses increased $1,535,000 or 51% in 1996 to
$4,537,000. The increase in the 1996 provision was due primarily to increased
loans and higher net charge-offs. The 1995 provision for credit losses compared
to 1994 was $1,778,000 higher, an increase of 145%. The 1994 provision was lower
than the provisions taken in 1995 because of the reversal of $1,600,000 in the
allowance for credit losses at First National in the third quarter.
 
ACQUISITIONS AND BUSINESS FORMATIONS
 
     During 1996, the Company completed its acquisition of Simplicity Mortgage
Consultants, Inc., an Indiana-based mortgage brokerage company with annual
revenues of approximately $900,000, and National Recovery Services, Professional
Adjustment of Ft. Myers, Florida, and Gulf Coast Collection Bureau, Inc.,
Florida-based collection agencies with annual revenues of approximately
$1,000,000. The aggregate purchase price of the four transactions was $1,500,000
and included $551,000 cash and the issuance of 55,380 shares of Mid Am, Inc.
common stock. The results of operations includes the results of the acquired
entities from the dates of their respective acquisitions.
 
     In April 1996, Mid Am Credit Corp. commenced operations as a full-service
equipment leasing and financing unit. MACC's lending efforts are concentrated
primarily on medical equipment financing on a nationwide basis. MACC, as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, with
satellite offices in Los Angeles, California and Nashville, Tennessee.
 
     On July 31, 1995, the Company completed its merger with MFI Investments
Corp. ("MFI") of Bryan, Ohio, a full-service, independent broker/dealer which
had approximately 250 financial consultants in over 19 states at the date of
acquisition. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and was
consummated by the issuance of 345,983 shares of Mid Am, Inc. common stock to
MFI shareholders, of which 169,701 shares were held in escrow at December 31,
1996 pending resolution of litigation filed against MFI prior to the merger.
 
     On March 1, 1995, the Company completed its merger with ASB Bankcorp, Inc.
("ASB"), parent company of $128,000,000 asset Adrian State Bank, headquartered
in Adrian, Michigan. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests
and was consummated by the issuance of 1,701,328 shares of Mid Am, Inc. common
stock to ASB shareholders.
 
     On November 30, 1994, the Company completed its mergers with International
Credit Services ("ICS") and CCB Services, Inc. ("CCBS"), collection and credit
service companies headquartered in Ohio and Florida, respectively, with
aggregate net collection fee revenues of $2,400,000 for the year ended December
31, 1993. The
 
                                       S-7



transactions were accounted for as poolings-of-interests and were consummated by
the issuance of 532,397 shares of Mid Am, Inc. common stock to ICS and CCBS
shareholders.
 
     On June 4, 1994, the Company completed its merger with Farmers Savings Bank
("Farmers"), a $66,000,000 asset bank in Northwood, Ohio. The transaction was
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and was consummated by the issuance of
756,892 shares of Mid Am, Inc. common stock to Farmers' shareholders.
 
NET INTEREST INCOME
 
     Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on
interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing
liabilities, is the most significant component of the Company's earnings. Net
interest income is affected by changes in the volumes and rates of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the type and mix of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
 
     The following table, presented on a tax equivalent basis, summarizes net
interest income for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1996.

(1) Interest income on securities of states and political subdivisions and
    certain loans is exempt from federal income tax. A tax equivalent adjustment
    has been made to income received from these sources to provide comparability
    to taxable income. Tax equivalent adjustments reflect a federal tax rate of
    35% for 1996, 1995 and 1994. Included in interest income are amortized loan
    fees of $1,427,000 in 1996, $1,965,000 in 1995 and $2,725,000 in 1994.
 
1996 AVERAGE INTEREST-EARNING ASSET MIX
 
     Average interest-earning assets in 1996 totaled $2,013,106,000 as compared
with $1,995,004,000 in 1995 and $1,897,079,000 in 1994. In 1996, average loans
(including loans held for sale) and securities available for sale (including
investment securities in 1994), the two largest components of interest-earning
assets, comprised 75% and 23%, respectively, of average interest-earning assets
as compared to 73% and 23% in 1995 and 72% and 26% in 1994.
 
1996 AVERAGE INTEREST-BEARING LIABILITY MIX
 
     Average interest-bearing liabilities in 1996 totalled $1,764,738,000 as
compared with $1,756,602,000 in 1995 and $1,667,605,000 in 1994. In 1996,
average time deposits and savings deposits, the two largest components of
interest-bearing liabilities, comprised 59% and 25%, respectively, of average
interest-bearing liabilities as compared to 59% and 26% in 1995, and 57% and 31%
in 1994. There was virtually no change in the percentage of time deposits to
total interest-bearing liabilities from 1995 to 1996, and a slight decrease for
the same period for savings deposits. The increase in time deposits as a
percentage of total interest-bearing liabilities from 1994 to 1995 is primarily
the result of increased rates in the first half of 1995, the introduction of new
time deposit products, and various special rates on time deposits. Savings
deposits as a percentage of total interest-bearing deposits declined as a result
of rising rates and special rates on time deposits.

     The following table reflects the components of the Company's net interest
income, for each of the three years ended December 31, 1996, setting forth: (i)
average assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity, (ii) interest income
earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on
interest-bearing liabilities, (iii) average yields earned on interest-earning
assets and average rates incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, (iv) the net
interest rate spread (i.e., the average yield earned on interest-earning assets
less the average rate incurred on interest-bearing liabilities), and (v) the net
interest margin (i.e., net interest income divided by average interest-earning
assets). Rates are computed on a tax equivalent basis. Non-accrual loans have
been included in the average balances.

     The net interest margin increased 9 basis points to 4.32% in 1996 and
decreased 15 basis points in 1995 to 4.23%. The increase in the Company's net
interest margin in 1996 is due primarily to the change in the Company's earning
asset mix. The Company lowered its levels of securities available for sale
through maturities and various sales to fund higher yielding loans, primarily
commercial and commercial real estate loans. Average total loans in 1996 were
$1,500,941,000, an increase of $50,312,000 or 3% over 1995 average total loans
of $1,450,629,000. The decrease in the Company's net interest margin in 1995 is
due primarily to a decline in interest rates during the second half of the year,
a flattening of the yield curve, and a change in deposit mix. The decrease in
interest rates during 1995 reduced the Company's net interest margin since the
Company was slightly asset sensitive throughout 1995, with a large portion of
its commercial and commercial real estate loan portfolio tied to the prime rate.
 
     Net interest income may also be analyzed by segregating the volume and rate
components of interest income and interest expense. The following table presents
an analysis of increases and decreases in interest income and expense in terms
of changes in volume and interest rates during the three years ended December
31, 1996. Changes not due solely to either a change in volume or a change in
rate have been allocated based on the respective percentage changes in average
balances and average rates. The table is presented on a tax equivalent basis.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
 
     The provision for credit losses increased $1,535,000 or 51% to $4,537,000
in 1996. The increase in 1996 was due primarily to additional provision in
response to increased loan levels and net charge-offs. The Company's allowance
for credit losses as a percentage of loans at December 31, 1996 was 1.00% as
compared to 1.01% and 1.03% at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. At
December 31, 1996, the Company's allowance for credit

</TABLE>
 
     As seen from the above table, non-interest income is an increasingly
important source of revenue to the Company as it continues to expand its
offerings of non-bank-related financial services. Non-interest income has
increased by $16,947,000 since 1994, of which $13,546,000 occurred between 1995
and 1996. Mortgage banking remains the largest component of non-interest income
and consists of net gains on sales of mortgage loans and mortgage loan servicing
fees. The increase in 1996 compared to 1995 is the result of an increase in the
volume of mortgages sold which increased from $298,035,000 to $413,929,000.
Revenue from mortgage servicing was virtually unchanged in 1996 compared to 1995
despite an increase in the outstanding balances of loans serviced for others of
$160,838,000. Mortgage service revenue has been impacted by the amortization of
mortgage servicing assets which resulted from the 1995 adoption of SFAS 122
"Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights". The increase in mortgage banking
revenue in 1995 compared to 1994 was attributable to the adoption of SFAS 122
which increased the gains on sales of mortgage loans by $1,794,000.
 
     The gain on sale of credit cards which was realized in 1996 is the result
of management's decision to exit the credit card business as a stand alone card
issuer. In connection with this decision, substantially all of the Company's
credit card relationships and outstanding balances were sold to a national
credit card issuer.
 
     The $3,015,000 increase in the sale of other loans in 1996 is the result of
activity by the Company's commercial finance unit (MACC), which commenced
operations in April 1996. Gains from sales of MACC originated loans aggregated
$2,992,000.
 
     The slight decrease in brokerage commission fees in 1996 compared to 1995
was caused by a reduction in the number of independent registered
representatives (brokers) which occurred after a change in the clearinghouse
used by the Company's broker/dealer subsidiary. The Company expects to increase
the number of registered representatives in 1997 through advertising and
recruiting efforts. The $2,403,000 increase which occurred in brokerage
commissions in 1995 was attributable to growth in the number of registered
representatives affiliated with the
 
                                      S-11


 
broker/dealer subsidiary compared to 1994 and generally higher volume in both
the stock markets and mutual funds business.
 
     Collection agency fee income increased $814,000 in 1996 primarily from 1996
acquisitions. The decrease of $529,000 in 1995 was due primarily to the loss of
a large customer at the Florida collection operation.
 
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
 
     Non-interest expense includes costs, other than interest, that are incurred
in the operations of the Company. The table presented below summarizes the

</TABLE>
 
     Salaries and employee benefits comprise the largest component of
non-interest expense and was 47%, 44% and 45% in 1996, 1995, and 1994,
respectively. Salary costs increased in 1996 due to the formation of MACC, the
acquisition of three credit agencies in Florida, increased employee commission
expense related to higher mortgage loan originations and salary rate increases.
Full-time equivalent employees were 1,237, 1,172 and 1,101 at December 31, 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively. Salaries and employee benefits remained level in
1995 compared to 1994 because of the effects of a cost control program
instituted by management in late 1994. Employee benefits and retirement benefit
expenses increased in 1996 because of improved earnings performance by the
Company. Certain portions of employees' incentive and retirement compensation
are tied to levels of the Company's financial performance. The Company does not
offer any post-employment benefits other than through its retirement plans. At
December 31, 1996, the Company had 664 employees who were receiving health care
benefits. In 1996, the Company's total health care expense was $1,510,000 as
compared to $1,325,000 in 1995 and $1,498,000 in 1994. The increase in health
care expense in 1996 is the result of a higher level of claims experienced by
the Company.
 
     Net occupancy and equipment expenses increased in a manner correlating to
inflation from 1994 through 1996, except for a 7% increase in equipment expense
in 1996. The increase in 1996's equipment expense is principally depreciation
expense related to the purchase of state-of-the-art computer equipment and
software. The Company believes that technology plays an important role in
providing excellent service to its customers.
 
     FDIC expense increased in 1996 due to the special assessment of $.67 per
$100 of deposits insured through the SAIF which aggregated $3,563,000. At
December 31, 1996, the Company has approximately $616,000,000 of
 
                                      S-12


 
SAIF-based deposits which relate to prior mergers and acquisitions of thrift
institutions and branches. The decrease of FDIC expense in 1995 is the result of
a reduction in Bank Insurance Fund (BIF) premiums in 1995 as the BIF funding
levels reached mandated levels in 1995. Management believes that 1997 FDIC
expense will be significantly lower in 1997 based on premium rates expected to
be in effect to fund servicing of FICO bonds.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
     The provision for income taxes increased to $12,467,000 in 1996 from
$11,797,000 in 1995 due to an increase in pre-tax income. The effective income
tax rates for 1996, 1995 and 1994 were 32.4%, 32.2% and 32.1%, respectively. The
higher effective rates in 1996 and 1995 are primarily due to a lower amount of
tax exempt income relative to taxable income.
 
LIQUIDITY
 
     The liquidity of a financial institution reflects its ability to provide
funds to meet loan requests, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to
take advantage of interest rate market opportunities. Funding of loan requests,
providing for liability outflows, and management of interest rate fluctuations
require continuous analysis in order to match the maturities of specific
categories of short-term loans and investments with specific types of deposits
and borrowings. Financial institution liquidity is thus normally considered in
terms of the nature and mix of the institution's sources and uses of funds.
 
     For the Company's bank subsidiaries, the primary sources of liquidity at
December 31, 1996 were federal funds sold of $4,476,000, securities available
for sale of $432,791,000 and loans held for sale of $7,927,000. At December 31,
1995, the primary sources of liquidity were federal funds sold of $72,558,000,
loans held for sale of $12,642,000 and securities available for sale of
$461,997,000.
 
     Since the Company is a holding company and does not conduct operations, its
primary source of liquidity is dividends paid to it by its subsidiaries. For
national banks, the approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is
required in order to pay dividends in excess of the subsidiaries' earnings
retained for the current year plus retained net profits since January 1, 1994.
As a result of these restrictions, at December 31, 1996 dividends which can be
paid to the Company by its bank subsidiaries are limited to $13,538,000.
 
     The Company's liquidity position decreased in 1996 due to the Company's
increased emphasis in loan originations primarily in commercial and commercial
real estate loans. The funding of loans caused a decrease in federal funds sold
and a decrease in securities available for sale. However, management believes
that the Company's liquidity is adequate because the Company's bank subsidiaries
have lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and can borrow up to
$159,943,000, of which $39,403,000 is currently outstanding. In December, 1996,
the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated financial institution
which enables the Company to borrow up to $20,000,000 for a period of one year.
Through December 31, 1996, no advances were drawn against the available credit
facility; however, $10,000,000 was borrowed subsequent to December 31, 1996.
 
     As described in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, the
Company reached a definitive agreement to sell seven of its branches with
deposits of approximately $100,000,000 to another financial institution. The
sale is expected to close in the first quarter of 1997. The Company will need to
accumulate approximately $92,000,000 of cash to fund the sale of the branches.
The Company will utilize several sources of funds available to address the need.
Approximately $37,000,000 of cash will come from Federal Home Loan Bank advances
consisting of medium-term, fixed-rate and shorter-term variable-rate advances.
Approximately $25,000,000 of cash will be raised in medium-term fixed-rate
certificates of deposit. The remainder of the funding will be generated through
the sale of approximately $30,000,000 of securities available for sale,
primarily mortgage-backed securities.
 
     As shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows presented elsewhere
herein, cash and due from banks decreased $16,943,000 during 1996 to $85,657,000
at December 31, 1996. The decrease in 1996 reflected $6,238,000 used for
investing activities, $53,281,000 used for financing activities, offset in part
by net cash provided by operating activities of $42,576,000.
 
                                      S-13


 
     Net cash provided by operating activities of $42,576,000 in 1996 resulted
primarily from $25,992,000 of net income, an increase in interest payables and
other liabilities of $5,991,000 and non-cash charges and credits of $13,581,000,
proceeds from sales of mortgage and other loans held for sale of $449,672,000,
offset by net gains on the sales of assets of $16,885,000, and mortgage and
other loans originated for sale of $437,680,000.
 
     The increase of $19,016,000 in cash provided by operating activities for
1996 compared to 1995 is due primarily to the Company's mortgage banking
activities in 1996 which generated cash of $11,992,000 compared to cash
generated in 1995 of $1,256,000. Also, net cash generated from net gains on sale
of assets in 1996 increased $10,923,000 over 1995. The decrease of $74,684,000
in cash provided by operating activities for 1995 compared to 1994 is due
primarily to the Company's mortgage banking activities in 1994 which generated
cash of $70,848,000 compared to cash generated in 1995 of $1,256,000.
 
     Net cash used for 1996 investing activities of $6,238,000 was largely
comprised of a net increase in loans of $207,138,000, which was funded in part
by a net decrease of securities available for sale of $99,478,000 and a decrease
in federal funds sold of $68,082,000. Cash of $38,021,000 was provided by the
sale of the Company's credit card portfolio, sale of student loans and various
other loans. The $91,199,000 decrease in cash used for investing activities in
1996 compared to 1995 is primarily attributable to the cash provided by the
changes from December 31, 1994 to December 31, 1996 in federal funds sold of
$132,480,000 and the cash provided by the net change in securities available for
sale of $105,665,000 over the same period offset in part by an increase in loan
demand which caused an increase in net loan fundings of $120,189,000 and a
decrease of net proceeds from activities of investment and mortgage backed
securities of $23,129,000. The $17,116,000 increase in cash used for investing
activities in 1995 compared to 1994 is primarily attributable to the increase in
federal funds sold of $115,305,000 from December 31, 1993 to December 31, 1995
offset in part by a decrease in loan demand, which caused a decrease in net loan
fundings of $98,297,000.
 
     Net cash used for financing activities of $53,281,000 was primarily due to
an outflow of cash from a decrease in demand deposits and savings accounts of
$18,561,000, a decrease in other time deposits of $8,672,000, repayment of
capitalized lease obligations and debt of $19,058,000, cash dividends paid of
$14,851,000 and treasury stock acquisitions, fractional shares and other items
of $10,708,000, offset in part from proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt
of $12,900,000. Net cash used for financing activities in 1996 increased
$53,281,000 compared to net cash provided by financing activities in 1995 of
$91,000,000. This change of $144,281,000 is primarily due to a net increase of
bank deposits in 1995 of $123,650,000 compared to a decrease in bank deposits in
1996 of $27,233,000. The decrease in deposits in 1996 is primarily attributable
to the Company using alternative lower cost funds instead of high rate deposits,
primarily certificates of deposit. Net cash provided by financing activities
increased $90,259,000 for 1995 compared to 1994 due primarily to the change in
deposit balances. Demand deposit and savings accounts plus other time deposits
increased $123,650,000 in 1995 compared to a net decrease in these same deposits
of $32,590,000 in 1994. The increase in deposits in 1995 is primarily
attributable to the high interest rates in the first half of 1995 during which
the Company's time deposits increased substantially.
 
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
 
     Closely related to liquidity management is the management of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company manages
its rate sensitivity position to avoid wide swings in net interest margins and
to minimize risk due to changes in interest rates.
 
     The difference between a financial institution's interest rate sensitive
assets (i.e., assets which will mature or reprice within a specific time period)
and interest rate sensitive liabilities (i.e., liabilities which will mature or
reprice within the same time period) is commonly referred to as its "interest
rate sensitivity gap" or "gap." An institution having more interest rate
sensitive assets than interest rate sensitive liabilities within a given time
period is said to have a "positive gap," which generally means that if interest
rates increase, a company's net interest income will increase and if interest
rates decrease, its net interest income will decrease. An institution having
more interest rate sensitive liabilities than interest rate sensitive assets
within a given time period is said to have a "negative gap," which generally
means that if interest rates increase, a company's net interest income will
decrease and if interest rates decrease, its net interest income will increase.
 
                                      S-14


 
     At December 31, 1996, the Company had a manageable positive gap and
therefore does not expect to experience any significant fluctuations in its net
interest income as a consequence of changes in interest rates.
 
     The following table sets forth the cumulative maturity distributions as of
December 31, 1996 of the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, its interest rate sensitivity gap, cumulative interest rate
sensitivity gap for such assets and liabilities, and cumulative interest rate
sensitivity gap as a percentage of total interest-earning assets. This table
indicates the time periods in which certain interest-earning assets and certain
interest-bearing liabilities will mature or may reprice in accordance with their
contractual terms. However, this table does not necessarily indicate the impact
of general interest rate movements on the Company's net interest yield because
the repricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is discretionary
and is subject to competition and other pressures. As a result, various assets
and liabilities indicated as repricing within the same period may in fact
reprice at different times and at different rate levels. Subject to these
qualifications, the table reflects a cumulative positive gap for assets and
liabilities maturing or repricing in 1997. The Company's Asset/Liability
Management Committee monitors the interest rate sensitivity position and
currently intends to maintain a slightly positive gap during 1997 primarily as a
result of the Company's view of the economy and the anticipated interest rate
scenario for 1997.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     The Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") has established risk-based capital
guidelines that must be observed by bank holding companies and banks. Under
these guidelines, total qualifying capital is categorized into two components --
Tier I and Tier II capital. Tier I capital generally consists of common
shareholders' equity, perpetual preferred stock (subject to limitations) and
minority interests in subsidiaries. Subject to limitations, Tier II capital
includes certain other preferred stock and debentures, and a portion of the
reserve for credit losses. These ratios are expressed as a percentage of
risk-adjusted assets, which include various risk-weighted percentages of
off-balance-sheet exposures, as well as assets on the balance sheet. The FRB
regulations governing the various capital ratios do not recognize the effects of
SFAS 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" on
capital relating to changes in market value of securities available for sale.
 
                                      S-15


 
     At December 31, 1996, a minimum Tier I capital ratio of 4.00% and a total
capital ratio of 8.00% are required. The Company's qualifying capital at
December 31, 1996 exceeds both the Tier I and Tier II risk-based capital
guidelines. In addition, a capital leverage ratio is used in connection with the
risk-based capital standards which is defined as Tier I capital divided by total
assets adjusted for certain items. The following table presents the various
capital and leverage ratios of the Company.

INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO AND SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
 
     In November 1995, all investment and mortgage-backed securities classified
as held-to-maturity were transferred to securities available for sale. The
decision to transfer the securities was based on management's assessment of the
Company's held-to-maturity securities portfolio and guidance by the
interpretations contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board "Guide to
Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities" which was issued in November, 1995.

     The available for sale portfolio contains mortgage-backed securities and to
a limited extent, other securities, which have unknown cash flow
characteristics. The variable cash flows present additional risk to the
bondholders in the form of prepayment or extension risk primarily caused by
market interest rate changes. This additional risk is generally rewarded in the
form of higher yields to the investor.
 
     The Company utilizes tools to minimize and monitor this risk, requiring the
security to pass a stress test at the time of purchase. This testing measures
prepayment and extension risk under severe changes in interest rates.
Additionally, the corporate investment policy defines certain types of high risk
securities as ineligible for purchase, including securities which may not return
full principal to the Company. It is also the practice of the Company to
minimize premiums paid on mortgage securities to avoid yield reduction if
prepayments increase. These policies help insure that there will be no material
impact from these investments to the financial statements due to changing
interest rates.
 
     The internal accounting systems and controls are in place to account for
amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts. As prepayments of
principal are received, the system automatically adjusts premiums and discounts
to reflect the proper book values.
 
     There are no securities available for sale of any single issuer where the
aggregate carrying value of such securities exceeded 10% of shareholders'
equity, except those of U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government agencies and
substantially all mortgage-backed securities issued by Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, Federal National Mortgage Association and Government
National Mortgage Association.

     The following table shows the contractual maturities and weighted average
yields of the Company's securities available for sale as of December 31, 1996.
Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may
have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment
penalties. Mortgage-backed securities are presented in the table based on
current assumptions as to prepayments. The weighted average yields on income
from tax exempt obligations of state and political subdivisions have been
adjusted to a tax equivalent basis.

</TABLE>
 
     Real estate loans, including construction and mortgage loans, approximated
65% of total loans at December 31, 1996. Collateral evaluations and the
historical data of the Company's mortgage loan losses are used to determine the
amount necessary for the allowance for credit losses. The Company's general
collateral policy for residential real estate mortgages is to follow FNMA and
FHLMC guidelines, which generally require a loan-to-value ratio of 80% or
private mortgage insurance for loan-to-value ratios in excess of 80%.
 
                                      S-18


 
     A significant portion (24%) of the loan portfolio is composed of commercial
loans. Personal and business financial status, credit standing, and available
collateral of commercial borrowers, plus management's judgment as to prevailing
and anticipated economic conditions and the historical data of the Company's
commercial loan losses, are taken into consideration when determining the amount
of the allowance for credit losses needed for commercial loans. The amount of
collateral required on commercial loans is generally determined based on a
loan-by-loan assessment. Average loan-to-value ratios for commercial loans
typically range from 50% to 80%. Factors which are considered include, among
other things, the purpose of the loan, the current financial status of the
borrower and the borrower's prior credit history.
 
     The remaining portion (11%) of the Company's loan portfolio are
installment, credit card loans and other loans and leases. A thorough credit
examination is done at the time of the extension of credit. The Company makes
consumer loans on both a secured and unsecured basis depending, in part, on the
nature, purpose and term of the loan. Loan-to-value ratios for secured consumer
loans range from 70% to 90% as a general rule. The historical data of the
Company's consumer loan losses and the Company's credit evaluations are used to
determine the necessary amount for its allowance for credit losses.
 
     The following table shows the amount of commercial, financial and
agricultural loans and real estate construction loans outstanding as of December
31, 1996 which, based on remaining scheduled repayments of principal, are due in
the periods indicated. Also, the amounts due after one year are classified
according to their sensitivity to changes in interest rates.

     SFAS 114 "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan", and SFAS 118
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and
Disclosures", were adopted effective January 1, 1995. Residential mortgage,
installment and credit card loans are collectively evaluated for impairment.
Individual commercial loans exceeding size thresholds established by management
are evaluated for impairment. Impaired loans are recorded at the loan's fair
value by the establishment of a specific allowance where necessary. The fair
value of the underlying collateral-dependent loans is determined by the fair
value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of
noncollateralized-dependent loans is determined by discounting expected future
interest and principal payments at the loan's effective interest rate.
 
     At December 31, 1996, the recorded investment on impaired loans measured in
accordance with SFAS 114 amounted to $7,241,000, of which $5,915,000 or 82%
impaired loans have a specific allowance of $2,206,000 and the remaining
$1,326,000 of impaired loans have no specific allowance because the fair value
of the collateral securing the loan exceeded the investment in the loan. The
average recorded investment in impaired loans for the year ended December 31,
1996 was $8,447,000. Interest income recognized in 1996 related to impaired
loans was $694,000, most of which was recognized on the cash basis. At December
31, 1995, the recorded investment in impaired loans measured in accordance with
SFAS 114 amounted to $9,245,000, of which $7,868,000 of impaired loans have a
specific allowance of $2,307,000 and the remaining $1,377,000 of impaired loans
have no specific allowance because the fair value of the collateral securing the
loan exceeded the investment in the loan. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, loans
with outstanding balances of $691,000 and $746,000 have been considered impaired
under the Company's method of determining impaired loans (see Note 4 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements); however, the loans are still on accrual as
borrowers are continuing to make payments in accordance with the terms of the
applicable loan agreement and the measurement of the loans' fair value indicates
that the loans do not require a specific allowance.

future cash flows was $6,414,000, (2) the fair value of the loans' collateral
was $510,000, and (3) the observable market price of the loans was $317,000.
 
     Non-accrual loans are comprised principally of loans 90 days past due, as
well as certain loans which are current but where serious doubts exist as to the
ability of the borrower to comply with the repayment terms. Interest previously
accrued and not yet paid on non-accrual loans is reversed or charged against the
allowance for credit losses during the period in which the loan is placed in a
non-accrual status, except where the Company has determined that such loans are
adequately secured as to principal and interest. Interest earned thereafter is
included in income only to the extent that it is received in cash. In certain
cases, interest received may be credited against principal outstanding under the
cost recovery method.
 
     Three of the Company's bank subsidiaries have purchased certain lease
receivables or loans from The Bennett Funding Group (Bennett) which have an
aggregate outstanding balance of $6,100,000 at December 31, 1996. Bennett was
placed into bankruptcy proceedings in March of 1996. Payments by lessees and
borrowers have been paid into an interest-bearing escrow account with the
bankruptcy court pending resolution of certain issues. Issues which may affect
the Company's ability to ultimately collect interest and principal on the leases
include a determination of ownership of the receivables and whether the banks
have perfected their security interests in the receivables. Certain lease pools
purchased by the Company (or portions thereof) are the subject of these issues,
while other pools are not. All of the lease pools, or portions thereof, which
are subject to challenge by the Trustee or other parties which aggregate
$1,614,000 at December 31, 1996, have been placed on non-accrual and are
considered impaired under SFAS 114. Those pools or portions which aggregate
$4,486,000 at December 31, 1996 where management believes it will collect
principal and interest from escrow are classified as loans 90 days past due and
not on non-accrual. The classification of those lease pools or loans as 90 days
or more past due and still accruing is primarily responsible for the ratio of
this category to total loans increasing from .08 at December 31, 1995 to .38 at
December 31, 1996.
 
     Loans 30 to 89 days past due, excluding non-accrual and restructured loans
amounted to $8,944,000 or .57% of total loans at December 31, 1996 as compared
to $8,035,000 or .54% at December 31, 1995. Loans now current but where some
concerns exist as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan
repayment terms, excluding non-performing loans, approximated $31,503,000 and
$32,715,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and are being closely
monitored by management and the Boards of Directors of the subsidiaries. The
classification of these loans, however, does not mean to imply that management
expects losses on each of these loans, but believes that a higher level of
scrutiny is prudent under the circumstances. At December 31, 1996 and 1995
specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses related to these loans
aggregated $3,219,000 and $3,359,000, respectively. The decrease in loans where
some concern exists is primarily attributable to the Company's continuous
process of loan review which has identified various improvements in the
financial condition of certain of the individual borrowers. In the opinion of
management, these loans require close monitoring despite the fact that they are
performing according to their terms. Such classifications relate to specific
concerns relating to each individual borrower and do not relate to any
concentrated risk elements common to all loans in this group.
 
     Other real estate owned amounted to $1,143,000 and $763,000 at December 31,
1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company has been able to maintain other real
estate owned balances at a low level since 1992, through improved asset quality,
improved controls, and timely sales of foreclosed properties.
 
     As of December 31, 1996, the Company did not have any loan concentrations
which exceeded 10% of total loans.

     The provision for credit losses reflects the amount necessary in
management's opinion to maintain an adequate reserve, based upon its analysis of
the loan portfolio (including the loan growth rate and change in the mix of the
loan portfolio) and general economic conditions and the necessity to state
certain individual loans at their estimated fair value.
 
     The Company's banking subsidiaries monitor the adequacy of their allowances
for credit losses on a monthly basis. The banking subsidiaries formally document
their evaluations of the adequacy of their allowances for credit losses on a
quarterly basis and the evaluations are reviewed and discussed with each bank's
respective Board of Directors. The Company's Asset Quality Department presents a
quarterly consolidated evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit
losses to the Company's Board of Directors. These evaluations of potential
losses include a review of the current financial status and credit standing of
commercial borrowers and their prior history, an evaluation of available
collateral, a review of loss experience in relation to outstanding loans, and
management's judgment as to prevailing and anticipated economic conditions,
among other relevant factors. Such factors include, among others, changes in the
credit grade assigned to the loan by either the assigned officer or by the
Company's Asset Quality Department from its periodic reviews of segments of the
loan portfolios, and increases or decreases in
 
                                      S-23


 
specific reserves assigned to individual loans. Residential mortgage and
consumer portfolios are collectively evaluated giving consideration to trend of
delinquencies and charge-offs and current and anticipated economic conditions.

     Increased loan balances in 1996 required additional provision to maintain
an adequate level of the Company's allowance for credit losses to total loans.
Prior to 1996, provisions for credit losses have decreased each year since 1992,
with the exception of a small increase in 1995, reflecting improved asset
quality. In 1993, the Company's asset quality began to improve as non-performing
assets to total loans and OREO decreased to .85% from 1.21%, and the
non-performing loan ratio improved to .70% from .71%. Since 1993, the Company's
asset quality has continued to remain strong. Non-performing loans to total
loans were .42%, .58%, and .44% at December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994,
respectively. The Company's provision for credit losses increased $1,535,000 to
$4,537,000 in 1996 compared to $3,002,000 in 1995.
 
     The 1994 provision for credit losses was favorably impacted by a $1,600,000
reduction in the allowance for credit losses at the Company's First National
subsidiary during the third quarter.The reduction in First National's allowance
was the culmination of a number of events and factors. Asset quality and
charge-off experience at First National improved rapidly in 1992. In recognition
of the favorable loss experience and asset quality, management suspended
provisions to First National's allowance for credit losses in September 1992. No
credit loss provisions were charged to First National's operations in 1993 as
First National experienced net charge offs in 1993 of only $40,000. During the
second quarter of 1994, the Company's Asset Quality Department performed a
detailed review of First National's loan portfolio. The review confirmed First
National's management's conclusions that a reduction in the allowance for credit
losses was appropriate. During the second quarter, the Office of the Comptroller
of the Currency (OCC) commenced an examination at First National which included
an assessment of First National's asset quality. The OCC's examination was
concluded and the results were communicated during the third quarter of 1994.
The OCC examination also confirmed management's assessment of the allowance.
Shortly after the issuance of the OCC report of examination, a report of
economic conditions in First National's market area became available. It
indicated, among other things, a sharp drop in unemployment rates between the
months of July and August of 1994. Based on all of the information available to
management, the decision was made to reduce First National's allowance by
$1,600,000.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
     From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements
relating to such matters as anticipated operating results, prospects for new
lines of business, technological developments, economic trends (including
interest rates), reorganization transactions and similar matters. The Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for
forward-looking statements, and the purpose of this paragraph is to secure the
use of the safe harbor
 
                                      S-25


 
provisions. While the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the
forward-looking statements contained herein and in other public documents are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and
accordingly, actual results and experience could differ materially from the
anticipated results or other expectations expressed by the Company in its
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results or
experience to differ from results discussed in the forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to: economic conditions; volatility and direction
of market interest rates; capital investment in and operating results of recent
non-banking business ventures of the Company; governmental legislation and
regulation; material unforeseen changes in the financial condition or results of
operations of the Company's customers; customer reaction to and unforeseen
complications with respect to the Company's product redesign initiative; and
other risks identified, from time-to-time in the Company's other public
documents on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Mid Am, Inc.
 
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statement of condition and the
related consolidated statements of earnings, of changes in shareholders' equity
and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Mid Am, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
 
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for mortgage servicing rights and for impaired
loans in 1995.

                                  MID AM, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     The accounting and reporting policies followed by Mid Am, Inc. conform to
generally accepted accounting principles and to general practices within the
financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
     Prior to 1994, Mid Am, Inc.'s business related solely to commercial banking
and related services which for financial reporting purposes was considered a
single business segment. Since 1994, six collection companies were acquired, in
1995, a broker-dealer company was acquired, and, in 1996 a commercial finance
company was organized and commenced operations which are considered to be
additional business segments; however, the revenues, operating profit and assets
of the collection business, broker-dealer business and finance company are not
material for separate disclosure and Mid Am's predominant business continues to
be banking. A summary of the significant accounting policies follows.
 
     Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements of Mid Am, Inc. (the
Company) include the accounts of Mid American National Bank and Trust Company
(Mid Am Bank), First National Bank Northwest Ohio (First National), American
Community Bank, N.A. (AmeriCom), AmeriFirst Bank, N.A. (AmeriFirst), Adrian
State Bank (Adrian), Mid Am Recovery Services, Inc. (MARSI), MFI Investments
Corp. (MFI), Mid Am Credit Corp. (MACC), Mid Am Financial Services, Inc.
(MAFSI), Simplicity Mortgage Consultants, Inc. (Simplicity), and Mid Am
Information Services, Inc. (MAISI). All significant intercompany transactions
and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
     Cash and Due from Banks -- The Company is required to maintain average
reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank. The average reserve balance
maintained at December 31, 1996 and 1995 approximated $27,125,000 and
$25,184,000, respectively.
 
     Securities Available for Sale -- Securities classified as available for
sale are carried at market. The unrealized appreciation or depreciation from the
securities' acquisition cost is recorded in a valuation account, net of
applicable income tax effect, in the shareholders' equity section of the
statement of condition. The amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation
relating to a security which is available for sale is recognized in the income
statement upon sale of the security using the specific identification method to
determine the security's cost.
 
     Held to Maturity Securities -- The Company holds from time-to-time certain
of its securities for investment purposes (held to maturity) where it has both
the ability and intent to hold the securities to maturity. Such securities are
stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts
computed under the level yield method. Such premium amortization and discount
accretion are recognized as adjustments to interest income. The rate of
prepayment activity on mortgages underlying mortgage-backed securities is
monitored and compared to expected prepayments. Prepayment activity is affected
primarily by movements in interest rates. Yields on mortgage-backed securities
are adjusted as prepayments occur through charges to premium amortization or
discount accretion. At December 31, 1996 and 1995 the Company had no securities
classified as held to maturity.
 
     Derivative Financial Instruments -- The Company's hedging policies permit
the use of interest rate swaps, caps and floors to manage interest rate risk or
to hedge specified assets and liabilities. Derivative financial instruments are
not used for trading purposes. Through December 31, 1996, the Company has not
used any derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes, but may do so in
the future.
 
     Pledged Securities -- The carrying value of securities pledged to secure
public and trust deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and
for other purposes as required by law amounted to $268,543,000 and $220,070,000
at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
     Mortgage Servicing Rights -- The Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" (SFAS
122) effective January 1, 1995. The cost of mortgage loans which
 
                                      S-32


 
NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- CONTINUED
the Company originates or purchases under a definitive plan to sell or
securitize is allocated between the mortgage servicing rights and the cost of
the mortgage based on the relative fair values at date of origination or
purchase. The fair value of the mortgage servicing rights is determined by
discounting expected servicing income cash flows, net of certain servicing
costs, by a rate which is comparable to the then current interest-only strip
rate. The cost of those mortgage loans which are originated or purchased without
a definitive plan to sell or securitize is not allocated between mortgage
servicing rights and the cost of the mortgage until the date of sale or
securitization.
 
     Mortgage servicing rights assets are amortized in proportion to and over
the period of estimated net servicing income. Management periodically evaluates
mortgage servicing assets for impairment by discounting the expected future cash
flows, taking into consideration the estimated level of prepayments based upon
current industry expectations.
 
     The adoption of SFAS 122 increased 1995 pre-tax income and net income by
$1,560,000 and $1,020,000, respectively, or $.05 per share.
 
     Loans -- Interest income on loans is calculated using the simple-interest
method on the outstanding principal amounts. All non-refundable fees and costs
associated with the Company's lending activities are recognized over the life of
the related loan or lease as an adjustment of yield.
 
     Residential mortgage loans and other loans and leases held for sale are
stated at the lower of the cost to originate or purchase the loan (net of
deferred loan fees and costs and amounts assigned to mortgage servicing rights),
or market. Market is determined on the basis of rates quoted in the respective
secondary market for the type of loan or lease held for sale. The Company
generally sells its residential mortgage loans and MACC originated loans and
leases at a premium or discount from the carrying amount of the loans or leases.
Such premium or discount is recognized at the date of sale.
 
     The Company prospectively adopted SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan," and SFAS 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of
a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures" on January 1, 1995. Residential
mortgage, installment and other consumer loans are collectively evaluated for
impairment. Individual commercial loans exceeding size thresholds established by
management are evaluated for impairment. Impaired loans are recorded at the
loan's fair value by the establishment of a specific allowance where necessary.
The fair value of collateral-dependent loans is determined by the fair value of
the underlying collateral. The fair value of noncollateral-dependent loans is
determined by discounting expected future interest and principal payments at the
loan's effective interest rate. The adoption of SFAS 114 and SFAS 118 did not
have a material impact on 1995 results of operations.
 
     Accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest
remains due and unpaid for 90 days or more, unless the loan is well secured and
is in the process of collection. Income on such loans is then recognized only to
the extent that cash is received and when the future collection of principal is
probable. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when they are brought
fully current with respect to interest and principal and when, in the judgment
of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both
principal and interest. Restructured loans are those loans on which concessions
in terms have been granted because of a borrower's financial difficulty.
Interest is generally accrued on such loans in accordance with their original
contractual rates.
 
     Allowance for Credit Losses -- The allowance for credit losses is
established through a provision for credit losses charged to expense. Loans and
leases are charged against the allowance for credit losses when management
believes the full collectibility of the loan is unlikely. The allowance is an
amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb losses inherent in
existing loans and commitments to extend credit. The allowance and provision
take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the
portfolio, overall portfolio quality, loan concentrations, specific problem
loans, leases and commitments, and current and anticipated economic conditions
that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay. Specific allowances are
established for certain individual impaired loans based on the evaluation of the
fair value of the impaired loan. Allowances established to provide for losses
under commitments to extend credit, or recourse provisions under loan and lease
sales agreements or servicing agreements are classified with other liabilities.
 
                                      S-33


 
NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- CONTINUED
     Other Real Estate Owned -- Real estate acquired by foreclosure is carried
in other assets at the lower of the recorded investment in the property or its
fair value. Prior to foreclosure, the value of the underlying loan is written
down to the fair value of the real estate to be acquired by a charge to the
allowance for credit losses, if necessary. At the time of foreclosure, an
allowance is established for estimated selling costs. Any subsequent writedowns
required by changes in estimated fair value or disposal expenses are provided
through this allowance and the provision is charged to operating expense.
Carrying costs of such properties, net of related income, and gains and losses
on their disposition are charged or credited to operating expense as incurred.
 
     Bank Premises and Equipment -- Bank premises and equipment are stated at
cost, less accumulated depreciation which is computed using the straight-line
method.
 
     Intangible Assets -- Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method
over periods ranging from 15 to 25 years. Core deposit intangible assets
acquired before 1992 are amortized using the straight-line method over 10 years.
Core deposit intangible assets acquired on or after January 1, 1992 are
amortized using an accelerated method over 10 years. Goodwill and core deposit
intangible assets at December 31, 1996 and 1995 aggregated $18,671,000 and
$20,715,000 respectively, and the accumulated amortization aggregated $7,893,000
and $8,691,000, respectively.
 
     Income Taxes -- The Company utilizes an asset and liability approach for
financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. The provision for income
taxes is based on pre-tax income which differs in some respects from taxable
income. Deferred income taxes/benefits are provided on cumulative differences
between pre-tax income for income tax and financial reporting purposes using the
current tax rate.
 
     Trust Department -- Trust Department income has been recognized on the
accrual basis. Assets held by the Company in fiduciary or agency capacities
(other than cash on deposit at the Company's bank subsidiaries) for its
customers are not included in the consolidated statement of condition as such
items are not assets of the Company.
 
     Earnings per Share -- Primary earnings per share is computed using the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, as restated for
shares issued in business combinations accounted for as poolings-of-interests,
stock dividends, and all common stock equivalents, applied to net income. Fully
diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of
shares determined for the primary computation plus the number of shares of
common stock that would be issued assuming all preferred shares were converted
and certain outstanding stock options not included in the primary computation
were exercised.
 
     The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for primary and
fully diluted earnings per share computations were as follows:

     Recent Accounting Pronouncements -- The Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125 "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities"
(SFAS 125) in June, 1996. SFAS 125 establishes new accounting and reporting
standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of
liabilities. SFAS 125 focuses on the concept of control. Under this approach,
after a transfer of financial assets, the Company will recognize the financial
and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, and will
derecognize financial assets when control has been surrendered, and derecognize
liabilities when extinguished.
 
     The Company currently transfers certain residential mortgage loans
originated by its bank subsidiaries and loans and leases originated by one of
its non-bank subsidiaries. The Company has accounted for these transfers as
sales; accordingly, the loans and leases transferred have been derecognized.
Management believes that these transfers will continue to be treated as sales
under SFAS 125 and there will be no material impact on its results of operations
from adoption of this statement. The Company will prospectively adopt SFAS 125
effective January 1, 1997.
 
                                      S-34


 
NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- CONTINUED
     Preferred Stock -- The nonvoting $1.8125 cumulative convertible Series A
preferred shares may be redeemed, at the option of the Company, after June 12,
1997 at $25.00 plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Dividends on common stock are
not permitted to be declared unless all cumulative dividends on preferred stock
have been declared and paid. At December 31, 1996, each share of Series A
preferred stock is convertible into the Company's common stock at a conversion
price of $10.25. The Series A preferred stock is not considered to be a common
stock equivalent for purposes of primary earnings per share. The amount of
common shares that would be issuable assuming conversion of all preferred shares
outstanding is used for purposes of determining fully diluted earnings per
share.
 
     Treasury Stock -- Shares of the Company's stock are acquired for purposes
of issuance in connection with the stock option plan and for future stock
dividend declarations. The treasury shares acquired are recorded at cost.
 
     Stock-Based Compensation -- The Company accounts for stock-based
compensation arrangements under the intrinsic value method in accordance with
ABP 25. Pro forma disclosures of compensation cost of stock-based awards
required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 have been
determined using the fair value method which considers the time value of the
option considering the volatility of the Company's stock and the risk-free
interest rate over the expected life of the option using a Black-Scholes
valuation model.
 
     Statement of Cash Flows -- The Company considers cash on hand, deposits
maintained with the Federal Reserve Bank and cash due from other banks, all of
which are included in the caption Cash and Due from Banks, as cash for purposes
of the Statement of Cash Flows.
 
NOTE 2. MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS, AND DIVESTITURES
 
     Completed Transactions
 
     During 1996, the Company completed its acquisitions of Simplicity Mortgage
Consultants, Inc., an Indiana-based mortgage brokerage company with annual
revenues of approximately $.9 million, and National Recovery Systems,
Professional Adjustment of Ft. Myers, and Gulf Coast Collection Bureau, Inc.,
Florida-based collection agencies with annual revenues of approximately $1.0
million. The aggregate purchase price of the four transactions was $1.5 million
and included $551,000 cash and the issuance of 55,380 shares of Mid Am, Inc.
common stock. The results of operations include the results of the acquired
entities from the date of their respective acquisition. These transactions have
been accounted for as purchases.
 
     On December 12, 1996, the Company completed the sale of substantially all
of its credit card business to a national credit card issuer. The Company
received $24.4 million cash in connection with this sale and recognized a
pre-tax gain of $4.6 million (after tax $3.0 million).
 
     On July 31, 1995, the Company completed its merger with MFI Investments
Corp., an introducing broker-dealer. MFI shareholders received 345,983 shares of
Mid Am, Inc. common stock (after adjustment for the 10% common stock dividend
paid in 1996), of which 169,701 shares are held in escrow at December 31, 1996
pending resolution of litigation filed against MFI prior to the merger. Under
the escrow agreement, 3,289 shares of Mid Am, Inc. stock were returned to the
Company through 1996 for costs incurred in defending the action. Shares returned
under the escrow agreement are treated as retired shares. Dividends declared and
paid on the shares are not returned. The transaction was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests.
 
     On March 1, 1995, the Company completed its merger with ASB Bankcorp, Inc.,
parent company of $128 million asset Adrian State Bank. ASB Bankcorp, Inc.
shareholders received 1,701,328 shares of Mid Am, Inc. common stock (after
adjustment for the 10% common stock dividends paid in 1996 and 1995). The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.
 
     Pending Sale of Branches
 
     On November 21, 1996, the Company reached a definitive agreement to sell
seven of its southern Ohio branches, with deposits of approximately $100 million
at December 31, 1996, to another financial institution. The transaction received
regulatory approval on January 15, 1997. All loans originated through the
branches will be retained. The Company expects to recognize a pre-tax gain of
approximately $8.5 million. The ultimate gain will be dependent on the level of
deposits on the date of closing and appraisals of branch property. The sale is
expected to close in the first quarter of 1997.

     Following the issuance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's "Guide
to Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities" in November 1995, management assessed the
held-to-maturity portfolio. As a result, investment and mortgage-backed
securities with an amortized cost of $66,096,000 and $162,477,000, respectively,
were transferred from held-to-maturity to securities available for sale in
November 1995. The net unrealized gain (loss) of the investment and
mortgage-backed securities transferred was $1,120,000 and $(1,553,000),
respectively.
 
     The carrying value and market value of securities available for sale at
December 31, 1996, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities
will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to
call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

     Most of the Company's business activity is with customers located within
the respective local business areas of its banks which encompasses Western Ohio
and Southeastern Michigan. However, MACC retains a portion of the credit risk of
loans and leases it sells through stipulated recourse provisions. MACC's loan
and lease activities are with customers in medical related fields located within
the continental United States. Substantially all loans and leases originated by
MACC are sold in the secondary market. In connection with sales of the loans and
leases, MACC retains limited servicing and limited recourse liability. The
servicing is limited to responsibility to collect delinquent accounts based on
information provided by the purchaser of the loans and leases. A liability is
established at the time each loan or lease is sold based on the fair value of
the servicing liability. In addition, MACC records a liability for the estimated
recourse for credit losses which is limited to an aggregate of 10% of the
purchase price of the loans and leases sold. The fair value of the servicing
liability and the estimated recourse liability reduce the amount of gain or
increase the loss of the loans and leases sold. MACC sold loans and leases for
total proceeds of $28,466,000 in 1996. At December 31, 1996, the outstanding
balance of loans and leases sold was $27,121,000. A portion of the purchase
price is deferred and paid to MACC on a delayed basis. At December 31, 1996,
MACC recorded a receivable of $825,000 for deferred sales proceeds. During 1996,
MACC recorded provisions of $618,000 for ultimate recourse losses on loans sold,
and through December 31, 1996 no charges against the liability have been made.
 
     The Company's retained loan portfolio is well diversified, consisting of
commercial, residential, agri-business, consumer and small business loans. There
are no significant concentrations in any one industry and the amounts related to
highly leveraged transactions are not significant.
 
     The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case
basis. The amount of collateral obtained is based on management's evaluation of
the customer. Collateral held relating to commercial, financial, agricultural
and commercial mortgages varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory,
property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

NOTE 7. FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK BORROWINGS AND ADVANCES AND OTHER BORROWINGS
 
     All of the Company's banking subsidiaries are members of the Federal Home
Loan Bank (FHLB) and have lines of credit with the FHLB which enables the
Company, through its bank subsidiaries, to borrow up to $159,943,000 at December
31, 1996. Borrowings under the FHLB lines of credit are secured by FHLB stock
totalling $11,153,000 and $9,663,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, and by residential mortgages totalling 150% of outstanding
borrowings. Aggregate borrowings outstanding under the available lines of credit
were $39,403,000 and $45,183,000 at weighted average interest rates of 6.35% and
6.89% at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
     The contractual maturities of the FHLB outstanding borrowings for the five
years subsequent to December 31, 1996 are: 1997, $8,707,000; 1988, $2,871,000;
1999, $3,045,000; 2000, $3,425,000; and 2001, $18,127,000.
 
     The Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated financial
institution in October 1995 which enabled the Company to borrow up to
$20,000,000 through December 28, 1996; however, the Company did not borrow
against the credit facility. On December 31, 1996, the Company entered into an
agreement with a different financial institution which enables the Company to
borrow up to $20,000,000 through December 31, 1997. Interest on advances taken
on the facility is accrued at either the financial institution's prime rate, a
formula based on the London Interbank Offering Rate, or a formula based on the
Federal Funds Rate. The Company may elect the interest rate method to be applied
to amounts outstanding in $100,000 increments. The agreement provides for an
annual fee of .1875% on the average unused portion of the credit facility. The
agreement also contains covenants which require the Company, among other things,
to maintain minimum tangible net worth, as defined, of $165,000,000, maintain
specified minimum capital ratios, and not permit non-performing assets to total
loans and non-performing assets to total capital ratios to exceed specified
maximums. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the Company borrowed $10 million
against the credit facility.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS -- CONTINUED
     Basis of Fair Value Determination:
 
     The table above has presented fair value disclosures in accordance with
SFAS 107 "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments" whether or not
the financial instruments are recognized in the balance sheet. In cases where
quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using
present value or other valuation techniques. These techniques are materially
affected by the assumptions used (estimates of future cash flows and discount
rates, among others). Because of the judgment and subjective considerations
required in determining appropriate and reasonable assumptions, the derived fair
value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets.
Further, the amounts which could be realized in immediate settlement of the
instrument could vary significantly from the fair value estimate depending upon
bulk versus individual settlements or sales as well as other factors. SFAS 107
excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its
disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate net fair value amounts
presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.
 
     Cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and
federal funds sold -- Due to the frequency of repricing of these items, the fair
value is assumed to equal the carrying amount.
 
     Securities available for sale, investment securities and mortgage-backed
investment securities -- The fair value of securities is based on quoted market
prices or dealer quotes. For purposes of determining the fair market value of
Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock, for which quoted market
prices are not available, the carrying amount of the stock has been considered
the fair value.
 
     Loans held for sale and loans -- For certain categories of loans (including
loans held for sale), such as residential mortgages and certain guaranteed
loans, fair value is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities
backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The
fair value of commercial and other types of loans is estimated by discounting
the expected future cash flows based on current rates being offered, the credit
risk involved and the time to maturity. Due to the frequency of repricing of
credit card receivables, the fair value is assumed to equal the carrying amount.
 
     Deposits -- The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and NOW
accounts is assumed to be the carrying amount. The fair value of certificate of
deposit accounts is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of
similar remaining maturities.
 
     Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
- -- Due to the frequency of repricing of these items, the fair market value is
assumed to equal the carrying amount.
 
     Debt and capitalized lease obligations -- The fair value of debt is
estimated based on the rates currently available to the Company for debt with
similar terms and maturities. The capital lease obligations are not included in
the fair value disclosures.
 
     Commitments to extend credit -- For commitments to extend credit, the fair
value is estimated based on the discounted future cash flows based on current
market interest rates, assuming that the entire commitment will be drawn upon.

     The FDIC expense for the year ended December 31, 1996 includes $3,563,000
of a special Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) assessment on deposits of
the Company's subsidiaries which were acquired from thrifts.
 
NOTE 11. RETIREMENT PLANS
 
     The Company and its subsidiaries provide retirement benefits for
substantially all of their employees under several retirement plans. The Company
does not provide post-retirement benefits other than through its retirement
plans and does not provide post-employment benefits.
 
     The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan for the
benefit of all eligible employees. Employees may contribute to the plan upon
employment; Company matching provisions commence after the employees have
completed twelve months of service with the Company. The plan provides for
annual contributions by the Company based upon income (as defined by the plan)
after providing for a specified return on shareholders' equity, and under the
401(k) portion of the Plan employees may contribute a percentage of their
eligible compensation with a company-match of such contributions up to a maximum
match of three percent. The Company also sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership
Pension Plan which provides for an annual contribution by the Company equal to
six percent of eligible employees' annual compensation.
 
     The Company has a supplemental employee retirement plan. This plan replaces
retirement benefits eliminated under the Company's qualified retirement plans
because of eligible compensation limitations under current tax law. The Company
contributes authorized shares of its common stock to a trust established to hold
the shares on behalf of
 
                                      S-43


 
NOTE 11.RETIREMENT PLANS -- CONTINUED

participating employees. The Company's contribution under the plan is determined
by multiplying the excess of employees' compensation over the established
limitation by the contribution level established by the Board of Directors for
the Company's qualified plans (12%, 9% and 9% in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively). At December 31, 1996, the liability recorded for the participants
in the plan was not material. The funding of shares occurs in January of the
succeeding year.
 
     Expenses relating to these plans amounted to $2,762,000, $2,017,000 and
$2,330,000 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
 
NOTE 12. STOCK OPTIONS
 
     In 1992, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an Incentive Stock
Option Plan which covers certain key employees and all Directors of the Company
and its subsidiary companies. In 1994, the Plan was amended to include
additional employees and to allow certain individuals, including Directors, the
ability to elect to receive options, determined under a formula, in lieu of a
portion of their salary or director fees, as applicable. Under the terms of the
plan, the maximum number of option shares which can be granted is limited to 7%
of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares. Options granted under the
plan expire 10 years after the date of grant and are issued at an option price
that is not less than the market price of the Company's stock on the date of
grant. Options granted to Directors are immediately exercisable. Options granted
to officers and other key employees are exercisable in annual 20% increments,
except for options received in lieu of salary, which are immediately
exercisable.
 
     Compensation cost determined using the fair value method consistent with
the methodology prescribed by SFAS 123 for the Company's stock option plan would
have the following pro forma effect on net income and earnings per share:

NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
     One of the Company's non-bank subsidiaries is a co-defendant in several
actions filed by customers of a money manager not affiliated with the subsidiary
who directed business to that subsidiary. These suits were filed prior to the
subsidiary's merger with the Company. The suits seek recovery of losses of
approximately $2,700,000 plus punitive damages, attorneys' fees and costs of
litigation. The litigation in the matters has been stayed and the parties have
entered into arbitration. The Company denies liability to the plaintiffs in each
of the actions and is vigorously contesting the claims. Discovery has been
partially completed in these actions, and arbitration proceedings have
commenced. However, due to the complexity of the issues management and the
Company's legal counsel have been unable to form an opinion as to the likely
outcome of the arbitration; accordingly, no provision for any liability that may
result from the resolution of these matters has been recorded. In the event of
an unfavorable outcome, the effect on the Company's results of operations could
be material. In connection with this action 169,701 of Mid Am, Inc. common
shares (after adjustment for 10% common stock dividend paid in 1996) are being
held in escrow pending resolution of the arbitration. Such shares will be
returned to the Company for any liability which may result from or for costs
incurred in defending the action. See Note 2 "Mergers, Acquisitions, and
Divestitures".
 
                                      S-45


 
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES -- CONTINUED
     There are also various other lawsuits and claims pending against the
Company, which arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of
management, any liabilities that may result from these lawsuits and claims will
not materially affect the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.
 
NOTE 14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK
 
     The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers
located primarily within the local business area. These instruments include
commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and international
commercial letters of credit.
 
     The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by
the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit,
standby letters of credit and letters of credit is represented by the
contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit
policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for
on-balance-sheet instruments.
 
     Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk are
presented below:

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>
 
     Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates ranging from one to five
years, variable interest rates tied to the prime rate and Treasury bill rates
and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements.
 
     Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company
to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees
are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements,
including bond financing and similar transactions. The expiration date of
substantially all standby letters of credit extend for a period ranging from
thirty days to eighteen years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of
credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to
customers. The Company holds marketable securities, certificates of deposits,
real estate, inventory and equipment as collateral supporting those commitments
for which collateral is deemed necessary.
 
     Letters of credit are instruments used to facilitate trade, most commonly
international trade, by substituting the Company's credit for that of a
commercial importing company. The terms are generally one to three months. The
letters of credit are primarily unsecured.
 
NOTE 15. MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITIES
 
     The Company conducts mortgage banking operations through its banking
subsidiaries. The primary activity relates to the origination and sale of fixed
and variable rate residential mortgages in the secondary market. The Company
usually retains the servicing of the loans it sells. Loans are primarily
originated in the Western Ohio and Southeastern Michigan market areas; however,
the Company also has employees and agents in Kentucky, Indiana, and Colorado who
also originate loans for sale in the secondary market.

</TABLE>
 
     In 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company sold certain servicing rights on
mortgages which had an outstanding principal balance of $41,038,000, $31,471,000
and $17,664,000, respectively, and realized gains of $351,000, $245,000 and
$175,000, respectively. At December 31, 1996 the Company had firm commitments
for the sale of approximately $8,133,000 of loans held for sale. No provision
for loss on the carrying amount on loans held for sale is considered necessary
at December 31, 1996.
 
NOTE 16. REGULATORY MATTERS
 
     Capital Maintenance Requirements
 
     The Company and its bank subsidiaries must observe capital guidelines
established by Federal and state regulatory authorities. Failure to meet
specified minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory actions
by the Company's and banks' primary regulators that could have a material effect
on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Under capital
adequacy guidelines, the Company and its bank subsidiaries must meet specific
quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off balance sheet
items as determined under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and
banks' capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Management believes, as of December 31, 1996, that the Company and its banks
meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
 
     As of December 31, 1996, the Company and its banks have been notified by
their respective regulators that, based on the most recent regulatory
examinations, each is regarded as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. Such determinations have been made
evaluating the Company and its banks under Tier I, total capital, and leverage
ratios. There are no conditions or events since these notifications that
management believes have changed any of the Company's or banks' well capitalized
categorizations.

                            221 South Church Street

                                PROXY STATEMENT
 
                              GENERAL INFORMATION
 
     The Board of Directors of Mid Am, Inc. (the "Company") is soliciting
proxies to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting")
to be held on April 11, 1997, at 10:00 a.m. at The Toledo Club, Corinthian Room,
Madison at 14th Street, Toledo, Ohio. At the close of business on February 11,
1997, there were 20,924,753 shares of common stock of the Company, without par
value ("Common Stock") outstanding, each of which is entitled to one vote on
matters acted upon at the Annual Meeting.
 
     Any shareholder executing a proxy has the right to revoke it prior to its
exercise, by written notice delivered to the Secretary of the Company, by
subsequently dated proxy, or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting any time
prior to its exercise. The shares will be voted in accordance with the direction
of the shareholder as specified in the proxy. In the absence of instructions,
the proxy will be voted for the election of the Class III Directors. The proxy
confers discretionary authority on the proxy holders as to any other matter that
may properly come before the Annual Meeting. Shareholders do not have the right
to cumulate votes in the election of directors.
 
     The solicitation of proxies on the enclosed form is made on behalf of the
Board of Directors of the Company. All costs associated with the solicitation
will be paid for by the Company. The Company does not intend to solicit proxies
other than by use of the mails, but certain officers and employees of the
Company or its subsidiaries may personally solicit proxies, without additional
compensation. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, the Company
will request that banks, brokers and other record holders send proxies and proxy
materials to the beneficial owners of Common Stock to obtain necessary voting
instructions. The Company may reimburse them for their reasonable expenses in
doing so. The proxy materials are first being mailed to shareholders on February
21, 1997.
 
                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
 
     Under the Code of Regulations of the Company, the Board of Directors is
divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. Each
class consists of approximately one-third of the total number of directors, as
fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors. Directors serve staggered
three-year terms so that directors of only one class are elected at each annual
meeting of shareholders.
 
     On July 16, 1996, the Board of Directors acknowledged the retirement of
Board member Charles G. Hilbert, and on December 30, 1996, the Board of
Directors acknowledged the retirement of Board member Blair D. Miller. The
Company wishes to acknowledge the generous service of Messrs. Hilbert and
Miller, each of whom has served on the Board of Directors since the Company's
formation in 1988. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, no vacancies exist in
the Company's Board of Directors.
 
     At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders will be asked to elect as Class III
Directors the seven persons listed below, all of whom are presently serving as
Class III Directors of the Company. If any of the Company's nominees are unable
to serve, which is not now contemplated, the proxies will be voted for such
substitute nominee(s) as the Board of Directors recommends. Unless otherwise
specified in any proxy, the proxies solicited hereby will be voted in favor of
the nominees named below or any substitutes. In accordance with the Company's
Code of Regulations and Ohio law, the nominees receiving the greatest number of
votes shall be elected to serve as Class III Directors.


 
INFORMATION AS TO NOMINEES
 
     The following information is provided with respect to each Class III
Director, all of whom are nominees for re-election at the Annual Meeting.

                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS
               MEETINGS, COMMITTEES, FUNCTIONS, AND COMPENSATION
 
     The Board of Directors of the Company met twelve times during 1996.
Committee meetings were scheduled as needed. All directors with the exception of
Mr. Hilbert attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the Board of
Directors and the committees on which they served.
 
     The Company does not have a standing Compensation Committee or Nominating
Committee. The functions of a compensation committee are served by the Special
Projects Committee, which annually reviews and approves levels of compensation
of the Company's senior officers and subsidiary presidents. The Special Projects
Committee members in 1996, all of whom are non-employee directors, were Messrs.
Aller, Bostdorff, Bryan, Lamb, Noneman, Spangler, Staley and Stearns, and Mrs.
McAlear. The Special Projects Committee met four times during 1996.
 
     The Examination Committee approves and reviews the internal audit programs
of the Company and its subsidiaries, and reviews the results of the independent
accountant's audit. Members of the Examination Committee in 1996, all of whom
are non-employee directors, were Messrs. Carlin, Hilbert, Hilliker, Kessler,
Laughlin, Miller, Ross, Shierson, Tessendorf and Thomas. The Examination
Committee met six times during 1996.
 
     Non-employee directors of the Company received an annual retainer in 1996
of $12,250, a fee of $375 for each Board of Directors meeting attended and a fee
of $200 for each committee meeting attended. In addition, the Mid Am, Inc. 1992
Stock Option Plan, as amended (the "Option Plan") provides for an automatic
grant to non-employee directors of the Company of non-qualified options to
acquire 998.25 shares of Common Stock in November of each year including 1996.
Directors who are employees of the Company are not compensated for their service
on the Board of Directors.

CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENTS
 
     To assure continuity of management and operations, the Company and its
subsidiaries have Change in Control Agreements (the "Agreements") with certain
of their executive officers. The Company has entered into an Agreement with each
of the Named Executives.
 
     Pursuant to the Agreements, the Company and its subsidiaries may terminate
an executive officer's employment for any reason or for no reason, with or
without notice. The Agreements do not change the individual's status as
employees at will under the laws of the State of Ohio. In the event of
involuntary termination or diminution of status without cause after a change in
control (as defined), the executive officers are entitled to compensation
payable in a lump sum or monthly installments in the following multiples of the
individual's average total compensation for the immediately preceding two years:
(1) one and one-half times for all senior vice presidents of the Company; (2)
two times for all presidents and chief executive officers of the Company's
subsidiaries; and (3) two and one-half times for the Company's executive vice
presidents, President and Chief Executive Officer. If an individual has been
with the Company or a subsidiary for less than two years at the time of a change
in control, the amount payable under the Agreement will be based upon the
individual's average total compensation during the term of his or her
employment. The Company and its subsidiaries are not obligated to pay any amount
which is in excess of the then maximum amount which is deductible for federal
income tax purposes.
 
     For purposes of the Agreements, a change in control is defined as, among
other occurrences, a merger or consolidation with or into any other corporation
where shareholders of the Company receive less than 50% of the shares of the
resulting corporation; certain situations involving the issuance, ownership, or
control of in excess of 24.99% of the outstanding Common Stock or assets of the
Company; or the removal, termination or retirement of more than 49% of the
members of the Board of Directors.

                        REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
     The compensation of executive officers of the Company and the presidents
and chief executive officers of each of its subsidiaries is reviewed and
established annually by the Special Projects Committee (the "Committee"), which
is comprised entirely of non-employee directors. The compensation of executive
officers of the subsidiaries, with the exception of each of their presidents and
chief executive officers, is established annually by the Boards of Directors of
the subsidiaries.
 
     In 1995, the Company retained Towers Perrin, a nationally recognized
compensation and employee benefit consulting firm. Towers Perrin assisted the
Committee in analyzing the competitiveness of the Company's 1996 executive
compensation package as compared with similar organizations, to ensure that
compensation arrangements effectively support the Company's long-term business
strategy. The Company's compensation philosophy applicable to executive
officers, as implemented under the supervision of the Committee, is to enable
the Company to attract and retain qualified executives through competitive cash
compensation, to reward quality performance through incentive compensation, and
to encourage executives to manage the Company in a manner that maximizes long
term shareholder value through incentive stock option grants.
 
BASE SALARY
 
     Base salaries for executive officers are set at levels competitive with
peer banking institutions and general industries, as applicable, and are
adjusted for individual performance. To develop peer groups for the Company and
its subsidiaries, Towers Perrin collected market pay data from surveys covering
the banking industry and applicable general industries. Towers Perrin then
analyzed the compensation of the Company's executive officers as compared with
compensation packages offered by U.S. companies of similar asset or revenue
size, as applicable.
 
     The Committee believes that the Company's most direct competitors for
executive talent are not necessarily all of the companies that should be
included in a peer group established to compare shareholder returns. Therefore,
while certain members of the compensation peer group are included in the NASDAQ
Bank Index, the compensation peer group is not identical to the peer group index
in the Comparison of Five Year Cumulative Total Return graph included in this
Proxy Statement.
 
ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION
 
     Corporate-wide incentive compensation awards play a key role in
implementing the Company's strategy of attracting and retaining qualified
executive officers, by rewarding quality performance. Annual incentive
compensation is based on short-term performance, and is comprised of the
Company's cash incentive compensation plan and the Profit Sharing Plan.
 
     Incentive plan cash awards are based upon (1) achievement of Company or
subsidiary return on equity ("ROE") and return on assets goals, which are
established annually by the Boards of Directors of the Company and its
subsidiaries; (2) achievement of work group or departmental goals; and (3)
individual performance. These criteria are weighted on the basis of the
participant's job responsibilities and ability to affect the financial
performance of the Company or subsidiary as a whole. For example, awards to
executive officers who are senior vice presidents are comprised of 70% corporate
performance and 30% individual and/or workgroup performance, while a bank
teller's criteria is weighted 80% on individual and banking center performance
and 20% on corporate performance. Incentive compensation for Messrs. Reiter,
Francisco and Nemec is awarded solely on the basis of the financial performance
of the Company. The remaining Named Executives are awarded incentive
compensation based upon the financial performance of their respective
subsidiaries (75%) and the financial performance of the Company (25%). Each
individual's total award may then be modified up or down based upon overall
Company performance.
 
     Awards under the incentive plan are paid on a matrix, with payout
corresponding to varying levels of achievement in the financial, work group and
individual performance perspectives. Maximum awards under the incentive plan for
executive officers are 40% to 70% of base salary, depending upon the
individual's position. In 1996, target and maximum bonus percentages were
increased to 35% and 70% of base salary, respectively, for Messrs. Reiter and
Francisco, to align their incentive compensation awards with the Company's peer
banking institutions. The remaining Named Executives may be awarded up to 60% of
their base salaries as incentive compensation. No incentive
 
                                        9


 
awards are payable to an executive officer if the Company or his or her
subsidiary, as applicable, fails to meet minimum levels of financial performance
established by the Boards of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries.
 
     Profit Sharing Plan contributions are made by the Company if corporate ROE
targets set by the Board of Directors are met. Contributions are intended to
qualify as employee stock ownership contributions and are invested primarily in
Common Stock.
 
LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION
 
     Options to purchase Common Stock are granted to executive officers under
the Option Plan to encourage these individuals to manage the Company in a manner
that will increase long-term shareholder value. Grants are made at an option
price of 100% of the Common Stock's market value on the grant date, vest in 20%
increments over five years, and expire 10 years from the date of grant unless
the optionee no longer serves as an executive officer. Options are granted by
the Committee using guidelines expressed as percentage of salary, and are
adjusted based upon considerations such as dilution, the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding, and Company, subsidiary and individual performance.
 
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S COMPENSATION
 
     The compensation of the Chief Executive Officer is reviewed annually in the
last quarter of each year by the Committee, which establishes the total
compensation of the CEO for the following year. In determining the CEO's
compensation, the Committee considered the Company's financial performance for
the prior year, the CEO's contribution to the short- and long-term objectives of
the Company and the market competitive base salary data for the Company's peer
group as developed by Towers Perrin.
 
     The Committee considered the Company's financial performance in 1995 to be
strong, with return on average common shareholders' equity and return on average
total assets at or near the Company's long-term earnings objectives. Overall
return to Common Stock shareholders was 26.5% in 1995. The Committee attributed
1995's performance in part to the Company's successful expense reduction program
adopted in 1994, "The Perfect 10," the objective of which was to reduce 1995
non-interest expense to an amount no greater than 90% of 1994's budgeted
operating expense.
 
     Based upon the Company's financial performance in 1995, the CEO's
leadership in implementing "The Perfect 10" program which positioned the Company
to continue to meet its long-term earnings objectives, and market pay data
supplied by Towers Perrin, the Committee established the CEO's initial base
salary for 1996 at $385,000, representing a 3% increase over the previous year's
base salary of $373,000 and placing the CEO slightly above the fiftieth
percentile of the Company's peer group. The Committee further increased the
short-term cash bonus target from 30% to 35% of base salary, or $134,750,
representing a 20% increase over the previous year's target bonus of $111,900.
Finally, the Committee granted the CEO options to acquire 17,500 shares of
Common Stock under the Option Plan.
 
     The foregoing report is submitted by the members of the Company's Special
Projects Committee.

                          TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT
 
     Directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries were customers
of, and have had transactions with the Company's subsidiary banks in the
ordinary course of business during 1996. These transactions consisted of
extensions of credit in the ordinary course of business and were made on
substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those
prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated persons.
In the opinion of management of the Company and its subsidiaries, these
transactions do not involve more than a normal risk of collectibility or present
other unfavorable features. The subsidiaries expect to continue to have banking
transactions in the ordinary course of their businesses with directors, officers
and their associates on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral,
as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others.
 
     Patricia A. Wise, spouse of Mr. Francisco, is the President of Wise People
Management, Inc. and a member of Wise and Dorner, Ltd., a limited liability
company formed for the practice of law. In 1996, the Company and its
subsidiaries paid approximately $67,000 for consulting, litigation and
employment law services provided by Ms. Wise and her companies.
 
                         RELATIONSHIPS WITH AFFILIATES
 
     Certain banking centers and/or real estate upon which Mid Am Bank banking
centers are situated are owned by Bancsites, Inc. and are leased to the bank
pursuant to long-term lease agreements. Bancsites was a wholly owned subsidiary
of the bank until 1977, when all of its shares were distributed pro rata to the
bank's shareholders. Subsequently, Bancsites effected a reverse stock split
whereby minority shareholders received cash in exchange for their shareholdings
in the corporation. Currently, Mr. Reiter and certain officers and directors of
the Company and Mid
 
                                       11


 
Am Bank beneficially own 13.66% of the outstanding shares of Bancsites,
including approximately 7.38% held by Mr. Reiter. Furthermore, a senior officer
of Mid Am Bank has a management position with Bancsites.
 
     During fiscal year 1996, Mid Am Bank made lease payments to Bancsites
totalling $537,000. Mid Am Bank expects to continue to make lease payments to
Bancsites in 1997. Furthermore, Mid Am Bank performs certain administrative
services for Bancsites at a cost of approximately $7,600 per year. The long term
leases between the bank and Bancsites are on terms comparable to those in
similar transactions with unrelated parties. Also in 1996, the Company purchased
two parcels of real estate from Bancsites for $200,000 in the aggregate. The
purchase price was determined through arms length negotiations between
independent representatives of the Company and Bancsites.
 
            SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
 
     Under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, members of the
Board of Directors and certain executive officers of the Company and its
subsidiaries file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission
disclosing their beneficial ownership of Common Stock. During 1996, and based
solely upon a review of such reports, the Company believes that all filing
requirements under Section 16 were complied with on a timely basis, with the
exception of delinquent reports of Messrs. Francisco, Mandula, Nemec, Sikorski
and Stearns, each relating to a single transaction in Common Stock. The reports
were corrected and promptly filed on behalf of these individuals upon learning
of the error.
 
                   RELATIONSHIP WITH INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
     During 1996, the Company engaged Price Waterhouse LLP to provide audit
services for the Company and its subsidiaries and to provide certain non-audit
services including advice on accounting, tax and reporting matters. The Board of
Directors of the Company has selected Price Waterhouse LLP as its independent
accountants for 1997. Price Waterhouse LLP is expected to have a representative
at the Annual Meeting. Such representative will have an opportunity to make a
statement if (s)he desires to do so, and is expected to be available to respond
to appropriate questions.
 
                             SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS
 
     Any proposals to be considered for inclusion in the proxy material to be
provided to shareholders of the Company for its 1998 annual meeting must be made
by a qualified shareholder and must be received by the Company no later than
October 24, 1997, for review and consideration for inclusion in the Company's
proxy statement.
 
                             OTHER BUSINESS MATTERS
 
     The Board of Directors of the Company is not aware of any other matters
that may come before the Annual Meeting. However, the enclosed proxy will confer
discretionary authority with respect to matters which are not now known to the
Board of Directors and which may properly come before the meeting.
