                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OPERATIONS:

         Net earnings for the third quarter ended September 30, 1996 were
$3,429,000 or $0.47 per share compared with $3,019,000 or $0.41 per share for
the same period in 1995. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996, net
earnings were $9,210,000 or $1.25 per share compared with $8,470,000 or $1.15
per share for the same period last year. Earnings information is summarized
below:


                                    Third Quarter               Nine Months

Return on average assets           1.68%      1.61%           1.55%      1.59%


         Net interest income for the third quarter was $9,853,000 up $474,000 or
5 percent over the third quarter of 1995 and for the nine-months up $1,862,000
or 7 percent. Fluctuations in net interest income can result from changes in the
volume of assets and liabilities as well as changes in interest rates. The
following table summarizes variances in net interest income attributed to
changes in balance sheet volumes and interest rates:

</TABLE>


         The tax equivalent net interest margin for the quarter was 5.25 percent
and for the nine-months 5.32 percent, compared with 5.40 percent and 5.57
percent respectively for the same periods last year. We continue to face strong
competition for loans in our market niche. Notwithstanding the competitive
environment, loans increased by 8 percent. Credit quality remains strong with
non-accrual loans remaining at .7 percent of loans outstanding.

         Noninterest income for the third quarter was down slightly but was up
$391,000 or 6 percent for the nine-months when compared with 1995. The largest
contributors to this increase were service charges on deposit accounts, sales of
retail investment products, and fees from the origination of mortgage loans.

         Noninterest expense decreased $76,000 or 1 percent for the third
quarter and increased $447,000 or 2 percent for the nine-months. The categories
with the largest increases were occupancy and marketing expenses which were
related to the relocation of the Company offices from 75 South Fifth Street to
651 Nicollet Mall, in Gaviidae Common, during the first quarter of 1996.
However, the actual relocation expenses are at or below what was planned.

         The efficiency ratio improved to 49.31 percent for the third quarter of
1996 compared to 51.78 percent for the same period last year. The improvement
was due to a 5 percent increase in net interest income combined with the
decrease in noninterest expense, primarily personnel expenses. For the
nine-months the efficiency ratio improved to 54.08 percent compared with 56.45
percent last year. The improvement was due to net revenues increasing more
rapidly than noninterest expense.

         Net loan charge-offs during the third quarter were $1,429,000 compared
with $675,000 for the same period last year. The loan loss provision was
$495,000 for the third quarter, compared with $762,000 in the third quarter of
1995. The provision is based on management's continuing evaluation of the loan
portfolio, including estimates and appraisals of collateral values, and current
economic conditions. At September 30, 1996 the allowance for loan losses was
$8,526,000, 1.43 percent of loans, compared to 1.56 percent at December 31,
1995. At quarter end the reserve coverage of non-accrual loans was 199 percent.
Activity regarding the allowance is summarized below:
