(3) Impaired Loans
     The  company's  recorded   investment  in  loans  considered   impaired  in
accordance with Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 114, Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan ("SFAS 114"),  was $6,663,000 at September
30, 1996. Of that amount, $3,226,000 represents loans for which an allowance for
loan losses,  in the amount of $1,404,000,  has been established under SFAS 114.
The average recorded  investment of impaired loans was $6,580,000 and $8,518,000
for the three  months  ended  September  30,  1996 and 1995,  respectively,  and
$9,608,000 and $6,713,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  Interest income  recognized on impaired loans totaled $32,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1996, and $84,000 for the nine-month period
ended September 30, 1996.

(4) Second Quarter Initiatives
     In conjunction with a change in senior management during the second quarter
of 1996,  the company began  implementing  a plan under which certain  corporate
activities  are being  discontinued.  The plan calls for the company to exit the
venture capital,  human resources consulting and travel businesses;  to sell the
corporate aircraft; to close the company's Louisville, Kentucky office; to close
the mortgage loan  production  offices in  Chattanooga,  Jackson and  Knoxville,
Tennessee;  and to  realize  additional  cost  savings in the  company's  retail
delivery  system.  In  addition,  the plan calls for the company to  consolidate
office space in Nashville, Tennessee and Bowling Green, Kentucky.
     Costs  recognized in the second quarter of 1996 which are  associated  with
this plan include  severance and related payroll taxes and benefits,  writedowns
of fixed assets  expected to be sold or  abandoned,  legal and  accounting  fees
associated  with  discontinuing  certain  activities  and  various  other  costs
associated with the disposition of assets.  The classification of these costs in
the consolidated statement of income is shown below (in thousands):
 Compensation and benefits                                             $1,798

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations

General
     Incorporated in 1981, Trans  Financial,  Inc. (the "company") is a bank and
savings and loan holding company  registered  under the Bank Holding Company Act
of 1956 and the Home Owners' Loan Act. The company's principal subsidiaries are:
Trans  Financial Bank,  National  Association,  headquartered  in Bowling Green,
Kentucky;  and Trans Financial Bank Tennessee,  National Association,  and Trans
Financial   Bank,   F.S.B.,   both   headquartered   in  Nashville,   Tennessee.
Collectively,  these three  subsidiaries  are  referred to in this report as the
"banks."  In  addition,  Trans  Financial  Bank,  National  Association  has two
operating subsidiaries:  Trans Financial Investment Services, Inc., a securities
broker/dealer; and Trans Financial Mortgage Company, a mortgage banking company.
     The company had total  consolidated  assets of $1.927  billion on September
30,  1996.  Loans  totaled  $1.407  billion on that date,  deposits  were $1.519
billion and shareholders' equity was $126 million.
     The discussion that follows is intended to provide  additional insight into
the company's  financial  condition and results of operations.  This  discussion
should be read in conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial  statements and
accompanying notes presented in Item 1 of Part I of this report.


Results of Operations
Overview
     For the nine months  ended  September  30, 1996,  the company  recorded net
income of $1.6  million,  or $0.14 per common  share,  compared to net income of
$12.5 million,  or $1.10 per common share,  in the same period of 1995.  Results
for the first nine months of 1996 reflect pre-tax charges  totaling $5.8 million
related to the company's  commitment to refocus on its core  financial  services
business, reduce expenses and exit from less profitable business lines, taken in
the second quarter of 1996, and a pre-tax charge of $2.7 million  resulting from
recently enacted  legislation  designed to recapitalize the Savings  Association
Insurance Fund (SAIF),  taken during the third quarter of 1996. The company also
increased  its  year-to-date  1996  provision  for loan  losses by $9.2  million
compared to the same period in 1995, after taking partial  charge-offs  totaling
$7.0  million  on three  non-performing  loans in the  second  quarter  of 1996.
Results  for the first nine  months of 1996  produced  an  annualized  return on
average assets of 0.11% and a return on average common equity of 1.62%, compared
with returns of 1.01% and 13.95%,  respectively,  for the  comparable  period of
1995.
     For the third quarter of 1996,  net income  decreased to $3.0  million,  or
$0.26 per  common  share,  from $4.5  million,  or $0.40 per  common  share,  as
compared to the third quarter of 1995.  Excluding the special SAIF assessment of
$2.7 million from the third quarter of 1996, and the previously  reported refund
of $585 thousand associated with the  over-capitalization  of the Bank Insurance
Fund (BIF) in the third  quarter of 1995,  earnings  would have  increased  $623
thousand,  or $0.06 per common  share,  in the third quarter of 1996 compared to
the third  quarter of 1995.  Return on average  assets for the third  quarter of
1996 was 0.64% and the return on average common equity was 9.52%,  compared with
returns  of 1.07%  and  14.58%,  respectively,  for the third  quarter  of 1995.
Excluding  the special  SAIF  assessment  and the BIF refund  from each  period,
return on average  assets  would  have  increased  from 0.98% to 1.01%,  and the
return on average common equity from 13.33% to 15.10%, for the third quarters of
1995 and 1996, respectively.

Net Interest Income
     Net interest income on a tax-equivalent  basis totaled $56.3 million in the
first nine months of 1996,  compared with $53.1 million in the  comparable  1995
period - a 6.0% increase. For the first nine months of 1996, net interest margin
(net interest  income as a percentage of average  interest-earning  assets) on a
tax-equivalent basis decreased 19 basis points, from 4.70% to 4.51%.
     Approximately  $550 million of the company's  commercial and consumer loans
are tied to the prime rate.  Decreases in the prime lending rate, which began in
the third quarter of 1995, had a negative  impact on net interest  margin during
the first nine months of 1996, compared to the same period in 1995.  As the
prime rate stabilized in February 1996, increases in the company's funding 
costs, which had lagged behind the increases in loan yields, continued to rise.
As a result, the company's net interest spread (the difference between the gross
yield  on  interest-earning   assets  and  the  rate  paid  on  interest-bearing
liabilities)  decreased,  negatively  impacting  the net interest  margin.  This
negative  impact was partially  offset by increased  net interest  income due to
loan growth.
     The following tables show, for the nine- and  three-month  periods ended
 September  30, 1996 and 1995, the relationship  between  interest  income and
 expense and the levels  of average interest-earning  assets  and  average
 interest-bearing liabilities. They also reflect the general increase in 
 interest rates on total interest-bearing liabilities over the past year, and
 increased volumes of loans, certificates of deposit, and
 borrowed funds.

   Net interest margin is net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.  For
computational purposes, non-accrual loans are included in interest-earning assets.  Net
interest spread is the difference between the average rate of interest earned on interest-earning
assets and the average rate of interest expensed on interest-bearing liabilities.  Average
balances are based on daily balances.

 *Includes tax-equivalent interest

   Net interest margin is net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. For
computational purposes, non-accrual loans are included in interest-earning assets. Net
interest spread is the difference between the average rate of interest earned on interest-earning
assets and the average rate of interest expensed on interest-bearing liabilities.  Average
balances are based on daily balances.

Provision for Loan Losses
     The provision for loan losses was $11.3 million (1.14% of average loans, on
an annualized basis,  excluding mortgage loans held for sale) for the first nine
months of 1996,  compared  with $2.1  million  (0.4% of  average  loans) for the
comparable  period of 1995. Net loan  charge-offs were $9,876 thousand (1.00% of
average  loans) for the first nine months of 1996,  compared  with $950 thousand
(0.11% of average loans) for the first nine months of 1995.
     For the third  quarter of 1996,  the  provision  for loan losses was $1,621
thousand (0.47% of average loans,  on an annualized  basis,  excluding  mortgage
loans held for sale),  compared with $780 thousand  (0.26% of average  loans) in
the comparable period of 1995. Net loan charge-offs were $799 thousand (0.23% of
average loans) for the third quarter of 1996,  compared to $550 thousand  (0.18%
of average loans) for the third quarter of 1995.
     The company  increased its  year-to-date  1996 provision for loan losses by
$9.2 million  compared to year-to-date  1995,  after taking partial  charge-offs
totaling $7.0 million on three non-performing loans during the second quarter of
1996.  The  provision  for loan losses and the level of the  allowance  for loan
losses  reflect the quality of the loan  portfolio and result from  management's
evaluation  of the risks in the loan  portfolio.  The increased  provision  also
provides for overall growth in the loan  portfolio.  Further  discussion on loan
quality and the  allowance  for loan  losses is  included  in the Asset  Quality
discussion later in this report.

Non-Interest Income
     Non-interest  income  for the  first  nine  months of 1996  increased  $4.6
million over the first nine months of 1995. The second quarter of 1995, however,
included a $1.7 million pre-tax gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights.
Excluding  this gain from the first  nine  months of 1995,  non-interest  income
increased $6.3 million.  This reflects an increase in service charges on deposit
accounts of $818 thousand,  due in part to the  introduction  of new transaction
account  products in April of 1996. The strong growth in the mortgage  servicing
portfolio  during  the past year  resulted  in an  increase  of $3.9  million of
mortgage banking income. An increase in trust and investment  services income of
$901 thousand,  reflecting the company's expanding trust and brokerage services,
accounts for most of the remaining improvement in non-interest income.
     Comparing  the  third  quarter  of 1996 to the  comparable  period of 1995,
non-interest  income  increased  $1.6  million.  This  reflects a $968  thousand
improvement  in mortgage  banking  income,  a $308 thousand  increase in service
charges on deposit accounts and a $196 thousand increase in trust and investment
services income.

Non-Interest Expenses
     Non-interest  expenses increased $14.8 million for the first nine months of
1996, compared to the first nine months of 1995.  Excluding the previously noted
pre-tax  charges  totaling $5.8 million  related to the company's  commitment to
refocus on its core  financial  services,  the  pre-tax  charge of $2.7  million
associated with the SAIF recapitalization, and the previously reported refund of
$585 thousand associated with the  over-capitalization  of the BIF, non-interest
expenses would have increased $5.7 million.  Increased expenses during the first
half of 1996 on  activities  which have been  discontinued  under the  company's
refocus on core financial services account for $1.1 million of this $5.7 million
increase.  The expanding  mortgage banking business  accounted for $1.9 million,
and expenses  related to the customer care center (which became  operational  in
the fourth quarter of 1995) accounted for $1.5 million of the increased expenses
in the first nine months of 1996.
     The efficiency ratio (non-interest expenses as a percentage of net interest
income plus non-interest income) for the third quarter of 1996 was 76.8%, versus
67.8% for the same period in 1995. Excluding the previously noted charge of $2.7
million associated with the SAIF recapitalization from the third quarter of 1996
and the BIF refund of $585 from the third quarter of 1995, the efficiency  ratio
would have improved from 70.3% to 66.7%.

Income Taxes
     Income tax expense totaled $836 thousand for the first nine months of 1996,
compared  with $6.0  million in the  comparable  1995  period.  These  represent
effective tax rates of 34.8% and 32.6%,  respectively.  For the third quarter of
1996, income tax expense was $1.6 million, versus expense of $2.2 million in the
second  quarter  of 1995,  reflecting  effective  tax rates of 34.1% and  32.4%,
respectively.


Balance Sheet Review
Overview
     Assets at September 30, 1996 totaled $1.927  billion,  compared with $1.796
billion at December  31,  1995,  and $1.715  billion a year ago.  Average  total
assets for the third quarter  increased $205 million (12%) over the past year to
$1.884 billion. Average interest-earning assets increased $183 million to $1.722
billion.

Loans
     The company continues to experience strong loan growth. Total loans, net of
unearned income, averaged $1.378 billion in the third quarter of 1996, excluding
mortgage  loans held for sale of $48.8  million.  For the  comparable  period in
1995,  loans averaged  $1.204  billion,  excluding the $24.4 million of mortgage
loans held for sale.
     At September 30, 1996,  loans net of unearned  income  (excluding  mortgage
loans held for sale) totaled  $1.407  billion,  compared with $1.259  billion at
December  31,  1995,  and  $1.237  billion a year  ago.  Loans  increased  at an
annualized rate of 15.8% from year-end 1995 to September 30, 1996.

Asset Quality
     Nonperforming  loans, which include  nonaccrual loans,  accruing loans past
due 90 days or more and restructured  loans,  totaled $11.6 million at September
30, 1996,  down $5.7 million from December 31, 1995,  and down $1.5 million from
the end of the third quarter of 1995.  The decline from  December 31, 1995,  was
primarily due to the partial  charge-off of three loans which had been placed on
nonaccrual  status during 1995. The ratio of nonperforming  loans to total loans
(net of unearned income) was 0.82% at September 30, 1996, compared with 1.38% at
the end of 1995  and  1.06% a year  ago.  Nonperforming  assets,  which  include
nonperforming  loans,  foreclosed  real  estate and other  foreclosed  property,
totaled  $15.0  million at  September  30,1996 as compared  to $17.8  million at
September 30, 1995. The ratio of nonperforming  assets to total assets decreased
to 0.78% at September 30, 1996, from 1.04% a year ago.
     The following table presents information  concerning  nonperforming assets,
including  nonaccrual and restructured  loans.  Management  classifies a loan as
nonaccrual  when  principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and the loan
is not adequately  collateralized and in the process of collection,  or when, in
the  opinion of  management,  principal  or interest is not likely to be paid in
accordance  with the terms of the  obligation.  Consumer  installment  loans are
charged off after 120 days of delinquency  unless adequately  secured and in the
process of collection.  Loans are not  reclassified  as accruing until principal
and interest  payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably
certain.  Loans are categorized as  restructured if the original  interest rate,
repayment  terms,  or  both  were  restructured  due to a  deterioration  in the
financial condition of the borrower.

     Three commercial credit relationships  account for $3.7 million, or 54%, of
the  company's  nonaccrual  loans  at  September  30,  1996,  and  32% of  total
nonperforming and restructured loans. An allowance for loan losses in the amount
of $539  thousand has been  established  for these  credits in  accordance  with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for
the Impairment of a Loan. The remaining  nonaccrual  balance consists of various
commercial  and consumer  loans,  with no single loan  exceeding  $500,000.  The
increase in accruing  loans past due 90 days or more from  September 30, 1995 to
September 30, 1996, is principally residential real estate loans.
     Foreclosed real estate at September 30, 1996,  includes two properties with
an aggregate book value of $1.5 million, or 47% of the outstanding  balance. The
first property was acquired  through  foreclosure  in 1986,  with an unsatisfied
loan balance at the time of $1.8 million. In order to facilitate the disposal of
the  property,  the  company  entered  into a joint  venture  with a real estate
developer  and  developed  the land for  industrial  and other  commercial  use.
Subsequently,  the company dissolved the joint venture and retained title to the
property.  Several parcels have been sold to date.  Based on an appraisal of the
property and previous  sales  experience,  management  does not  anticipate  any
significant loss to be incurred on disposition.  The second property included in
foreclosed  real estate is a  manufacturing  facility  which was acquired in the
fourth quarter of 1995. The property is listed for sale and management  does not
anticipate  any  significant  loss on the sale of the  property.  The  remaining
balance of foreclosed real estate consists of several properties, with no single
property exceeding $250,000.
     As of September 30, 1996,  the company had $6.5 million of loans which were
not included in the past due,  nonaccrual or  restructured  categories,  but for
which known information about possible credit problems caused management to have
serious  doubts as to the  ability of the  borrowers  to comply with the present
loan repayment terms. Based on management's evaluation, including current market
conditions, cash flow generated and recent appraisals, no significant losses are
anticipated  in  connection  with  these  loans.  These  loans  are  subject  to
continuing  management  attention and are considered in determining the level of
the allowance for loan losses.
     The allowance for loan losses is  established  through a provision for loan
losses  charged  to  expense.  The  allowance  represents  an amount  which,  in
management's  judgment,  will be adequate to absorb  probable losses on existing
loans.  At September 30, 1996,  the allowance was $17.2  million,  up from $15.8
million at December  31, 1995,  and $13.7  million at  September  30, 1995.  The
allowance as a percentage of nonperforming  loans increased to 148% at September
30, 1996, from 91% at year-end 1995 and 104% at September 30, 1995. The ratio of
the allowance for loan losses to total loans (excluding  mortgage loans held for
sale) at September  30,  1996,  was 1.22%,  compared  with 1.25% at December 31,
1995, and 1.10% at September 30, 1995.
     The adequacy of the  allowance  for loan losses is determined on an ongoing
basis through analysis of the overall quality of the loan portfolio,  historical
loan loss experience, loan delinquency trends and current and projected economic
conditions.  Additional  allocations of the allowance are based on  specifically
identified  potential loss  situations and the size of the loan  portfolio.  The
potential loss  situations are  identified by account  officers'  evaluations of
their  own  portfolios  as  well  as by an  independent  loan  review  function.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1996, is
adequate to absorb losses  inherent in the loan portfolio as of that date.  That
determination  is based on the best  information  available to  management,  but
necessarily  involves  uncertainties  and  matters of judgment  and,  therefore,
cannot be determined  with  precision and could be  susceptible  to  significant
change in the future.

Securities, Federal Funds Sold and Resale Agreements
     Securities,  including  those  classified as held to maturity and available
for sale,  increased  from $288 million at September 30, 1995 to $298 million at
year-end 1995,  and then decreased to $289 million at September 30, 1996.  Funds
provided by the reduction in securities  from December 31, 1995 to September 30,
1996 were utilized to fund growth in the loan portfolio.

Deposits and Borrowed Funds
     Total  deposits  averaged  $1.508  billion in the third quarter of 1996, an
increase  of $95  million,  or 7%,  from the  comparable  1995  period.  Average
interest-bearing  accounts increased $38.3 million in the third quarter of 1996,
compared to the same period in 1995, while average non-interest-bearing accounts
increased $56.7 million.
     Long-term  debt totaled $141 million at September  30, 1996, an increase of
$104 million from  September 30, 1995. In order to support  internally-generated
growth in the loan  portfolio,  TFB-KY issued in the fourth  quarter of 1995 $20
million of two-year notes and $30 million of three-year notes, and in the second
quarter of 1996 $25 million of four-year notes, under a $250 million senior bank
note  program.  The notes issued to date bear  interest at fixed rates of 6.32%,
6.48%,  and  7.13%,  respectively.  The first two issues  have been  effectively
converted to floating  rate  instruments  through the use of interest  rate swap
transactions.  Under these swap  agreements,  TFB-KY pays  interest at the prime
rate,  and receives a fixed rate of 8.60%.  An  additional  $175 million of bank
notes  may be  issued  from  time to  time  under  this  book-entry  program  in
maturities  varying from 30 days to 30 years.  The  remainder of the increase in
long-term  debt can be attributed to a long-term  Federal Home Loan Bank advance
obtained  by TFB-KY in the first  quarter  of 1996 to assist in  funding of loan
growth.  This $30  million  advance  matures in March 1998 and bears an interest
rate of 5.50%.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
     The company's capital ratios at September 30, 1996,  December 31, 1995, and
September 30, 1995 (calculated in accordance with regulatory guidelines) were as
follows:

                                      September 30,  December 31,  September 30,
                                             1996       1995        1995
Tier 1 risk based .....................      7.55%      8.64%      8.95%
     Regulatory minimum ...............      4.00       4.00       4.00
Total risk based ......................     10.77      12.15      12.47
     Regulatory minimum ...............      8.00       8.00       8.00
Leverage ..............................      6.12       6.70       6.94
     Regulatory minimum ...............      3.00       3.00       3.00

     The decrease in these  capital  ratios during the first nine months of 1996
is primarily due to the loss associated with the $5.8 million in charges and the
increased loan loss provision, both taken during the second quarter of 1996, and
the $2.7 million charge associated with the SAIF recapitalization,  taken during
the third quarter of 1996.  The decrease  prior to the second quarter of 1996 is
primarily  due to growth  in the  balance  sheet,  particularly  commercial  and
commercial   real  estate  loans.   Capital  ratios  of  all  of  the  company's
subsidiaries  are in excess  of  applicable  minimum  regulatory  capital  ratio
requirements at September 30, 1996.
     Generally  speaking,  the  company  relies  upon net  inflows  of cash from
financing  activities,  supplemented  by net  inflows  of  cash  from  operating
activities,  to provide cash used in its investing activities.  As is typical of
most banking  companies,  significant  financing  activities include issuance of
common stock and long-term debt,  deposit  gathering,  and the use of short term
borrowing facilities,  such as federal funds purchased,  repurchase  agreements,
advances  from the  Federal  Home Loan Bank and lines of credit.  The  company's
primary  investing  activities  include  the  purchase  of  securities  and loan
originations,  offset by maturities,  prepayments  and sales of securities,  and
loan payments.

Asset/Liability Management
     Managing  interest  rate  risk is  fundamental  to the  financial  services
industry.  The company manages the inherently  different  maturity and repricing
characteristics  of the  lending  and  deposit-acquisition  lines of business to
achieve  a  desired  interest-sensitivity  position  and to  limit  exposure  to
interest rate risk. The maturity and repricing  characteristics of the company's
lending and deposit activities create a naturally asset-sensitive  structure. By
using a combination  of on- and  off-balance-sheet  financial  instruments,  the
company manages interest rate sensitivity within established policy guidelines.
     The company's  Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) approves policy guidelines,
provides oversight to the asset/liability  management process,  and monitors and
adjusts exposure to interest rates in response to loan and deposit flows. ALCO's
overall  objective is to optimize net interest  income within the constraints of
prudent  capital  adequacy,  liquidity  needs,  the  interest  rate and economic
outlook,   market  opportunities  and  customer  requirements.   Asset/liability
activity is reviewed monthly by the company's board of directors.
     An earnings  simulation  model is used to monitor and evaluate the exposure
and impact of changing interest rates on earnings.  The simulation model used by
the   company   reflects   the   dynamics   of  all   interest-earning   assets,
interest-bearing  liabilities and off-balance-sheet  financial  instruments.  It
combines the various factors affecting rate sensitivity into a two-year earnings
outlook that  incorporates  management's  view of the most likely  interest rate
environment.  The model is updated monthly for multiple interest rate scenarios,
projected changes in balance sheet categories and other relevant assumptions. In
developing multiple rate scenarios, an econometric model is employed to forecast
key rates, based on the cyclical nature and historic  volatility of those rates.
A  stochastic,  or random,  view of net  interest  income can be  obtained  once
probabilities have been assigned to those key rates.
     Among the factors the model utilizes are rate-of-change differentials, such
as federal funds rates versus savings account rates;  maturity effects,  such as
calls on securities;  and rate barrier effects, such as caps or floors on loans.
It also captures  changing  balance sheet levels,  such as loans and  investment
securities,  and  floating-rate  loans  that may be tied or  related  to  prime,
treasury  notes, CD rates or other rate indices,  which do not necessarily  move
identically as rates change. In addition,  it captures leads and lags that occur
as rates  move away from  current  levels,  and the  effects of  prepayments  on
various assets, such as residential  mortgages,  mortgage-backed  securities and
consumer  loans.  These and  certain  other  effects  are  evaluated  to develop
multiple scenarios from which the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest
rates is determined.
     By forecasting a most likely rate  environment  the effects on net interest
income of adjusting those rates up or down can reveal the company's  approximate
interest rate risk exposure  level. As of September 30, 1996, the company's most
likely rate environment assumed the federal funds rate and prime lending rate at
5.25% and  8.25%,  respectively,  rising to 6.00% and  9.00%,  respectively,  by
September of 1997. The following  illustrates the effects on net interest income
of an immediate  shift in market interest rates compared to the most likely rate
assumptions used at September 1996:


Basis point change         +200 bp      +100 bp         -100 bp       -200 bp
Increase (decrease)
in net interest income     4.37%         2.31%          (1.17)%       (1.09)%


     As of September 30, 1996,  management  believes the company's balance sheet
was in an asset  sensitive  position,  as the repricing  characteristics  of the
asset and  liability  portfolios  were such that an increase  in interest  rates
would have a positive  effect on earnings and a decrease in interest rates would
have a negative  effect on earnings.  It should be noted that the results of the
simulation  model do not take into  account  any future  actions  which could be
undertaken  to reduce an adverse  impact if there were a change in interest rate
expectations or in the actual level of interest rates.
     A second interest rate  sensitivity  tool is the  quantification  of market
value changes for all assets and  liabilities,  given an increase or decrease in
interest rates. This approach provides a longer term view of interest rate risk,
capturing  predominantly all expected future cash flows.  Assets and liabilities
with option  characteristics  are valued  based on numerous  interest  rate path
valuations  using Monte Carlo rate simulation  techniques.  The company utilizes
this tool as another  component of interest  rate risk  management to supplement
the results achieved through net interest income simulations.
         To assist in achieving a desired level of interest rate sensitivity the
company has entered  into  off-balance-sheet  interest  rate swap  transactions,
which  effectively  convert the bank notes and certain  certificates  of deposit
from fixed interest rates to floating  rates and certain  commercial  loans from
floating rates to fixed rates. The result is that the  asset-sensitive  position
which is inherent in the balance sheet is largely neutralized.

     In a higher interest rate  environment,  the increased  contribution to net
interest  income  from  on-balance-sheet  assets will  substantially  offset any
negative impact on net interest income from these swap transactions. Conversely,
if interest rates decline,  these swaps will mitigate the company's  exposure to
reduced net interest income.
     The company requires all off-balance-sheet  transactions be employed solely
with respect to asset/liability  management or for hedging specific transactions
or positions, rather than for speculative trading activity.

                           Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
     On August 12,  1996,  Douglas M. Lester,  the  company's  former  chairman,
president and chief executive  officer,  filed suit individually and purportedly
on behalf of the  shareholders  of the company in Warren Circuit Court,  Bowling
Green,   Kentucky  against  the  company  and  four  of  its  directors,   Frank
Mastrapasqua,  C. Cecil Martin,  James D. Scott,  and William B. Van Meter.  Mr.
Lester claims that the company  wrongfully  terminated  him on June 4, 1996. Mr.
Lester claims that the four named directors  breached their fiduciary  duties to
the  company and also  alleges  fraud,  breach of  contract,  interference  with
contractual  relations and invasion of privacy.  Mr.  Lester seeks,  among other
things,  $1,000,000 in compensatory damages, the value of certain stock options,
and punitive  damages.  Management  believes that the litigation will not have a
material adverse effect upon the consolidated  financial position of the company
and intends to vigorously defend the action.
