(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 $6,534,000 at June 30,
1996.  Of that amount,  $2,101,000  represents  loans for which an allowance for
loan losses, in the amount of $759,000, has been established under SFAS 114. The
average recorded  investment of impaired loans was $9,644,000 and $6,986,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and $11,122,000 and
$5,810,000  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1996 and  1995,  respectively.
Interest income recognized on impaired loans totaled $1,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996, and $15,000 for the six-month period ended June 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 and human resources consulting 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;  to  consolidate  office space in  Nashville,  Tennessee  and Bowling
Green,  Kentucky; and to realize additional cost savings in the company's retail
delivery system.  The plan is scheduled to be fully implemented by the beginning
of the fourth quarter of 1996.
     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 three
operating subsidiaries:  Trans Financial Investment Services, Inc., a securities
broker/dealer; Trans Financial Mortgage Company, a mortgage banking company; and
Trans Travel, Inc., a travel agency.
     The company  had total  consolidated  assets of $1.867  billion on June 30,
1996.  Loans totaled $1.363  billion on that date,  deposits were $1.507 billion
and shareholders' equity was $124 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 six months ended June 30, 1996, the company recorded a loss of $1.4
million,  or $0.13 per common share,  compared to net income of $7.9 million, or
$0.70 per common share,  in the same period of 1995.  The loss reflects  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.  The company also  increased its provision for loan
losses by $7.2 million over the first quarter,  after taking partial charge-offs
totaling $7.0 million on three  non-performing  loans. Results for the first six
months of 1996 produced an annualized  return on average assets of (0.16)% and a
return on average  common equity of (2.21)%,  compared with returns of 0.98% and
13.62%, respectively, for the comparable period of 1995.
     The company recorded a net loss of $5.2 million, or $0.45 per common share,
for the second quarter of 1996, including the impact of the previously-mentioned
charges and the increase in the provision for loan losses.  The company recorded
net income of $4.1 million, or $0.36 per common share, for the second quarter of
1995.  Return on average assets for the second quarter of 1996 was (1.13)%
and the return on average common equity was (15.78)%, compared with returns
of 1.00% and 13.68%, respectively, for the second quarter of 1995.

Net Interest Income
     Net interest  income totaled $35.8 million in the first six months of 1996,
compared with $34.2 million in the comparable 1995 period - a 4.7% increase. For
the first six months of 1996,  net  interest  margin (net  interest  income as a
percentage of average  interest-earning  assets) decreased 23 basis points, from
4.62% to 4.39%.
      Approximately $500 million of the company's  commercial and consumer loans
are tied to the prime rate.  Consequently,  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 six months of 1996,  partially  mitigated by off-balance
sheet  interest  rate  swaps.  During the  comparable  period of 1995,  rates on
earning assets rose,  and increases in the company's  funding costs did not keep
pace with the increase in loan yields.
     As the  decline  in the prime  rate  stabilized  in the first six months of
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 six- and three-month  periods ended June
30, 1996 and 1995, the relationships between interest income and expense and the
levels  of  average   interest-earning   assets  and  average   interest-bearing
liabilities.

 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.

<FN>

 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.

changes in average  volume and  changes in average  rates in  proportion  to the
relationship of absolute dollar amounts of the change in each.

      The preceding  tables  reflect the general  increase in interest  rates on
deposit  liabilities  over the past year.  The  tables  also  reflect  increased
volumes of loans, certificates of deposit, and borrowed funds.

Provision for Loan Losses
     The provision for loan losses was $9,642  thousand (1.49% of average loans,
on an annualized basis, excluding mortgage loans held for sale) for the first 
six months of 1996, compared with $1,300 thousand (0.23% of average loans) for
the comparable period of 1995. Net loan charge-offs were $9,077 thousand (1.40%
of average loans) for the first six months of 1996, compared with $400 thousand
(0.07% of average loans) for the first six months of 1995.
     For the second  quarter of 1996,  the  provision for loan losses was $8,421
thousand (2.55% of average loans,  on an annualized  basis,  excluding  mortgage
loans held for sale),  compared with $780 thousand  (0.27% of average  loans) in
the comparable  period of 1995. Net loan charge-offs were $8,128 thousand (2.46%
of average  loans) for the second  quarter of 1996,  compared  to $231  thousand
(0.08% of average loans) for the second  quarter of 1995. The company  increased
its  provision  for loan losses by $7.2 million over the first  quarter of 1996,
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.


<PAGE>


Non-Interest Income
     Non-interest income for the first six months of 1996 increased $3.0 million
over the first six 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  six  months of 1995,  non-interest  income
increased $4.7 million.  This reflects an increase in service charges on deposit
accounts of $510  thousand,  due in part to the company's  repricing of checking
and savings  products  which took effect in April of 1995.  The strong growth in
the mortgage servicing portfolio during the past year resulted in an increase of
$1.4 million of mortgage  banking  income.  An increase in trust and  investment
services income of $702 thousand,  reflecting the company's  expanding trust and
brokerage  services,   accounts  for  most  of  the  remaining   improvement  in
non-interest income.
     Comparing  the  second  quarter of 1996 to the  comparable  period of 1995,
non-interest  income increased $380 thousand.  Excluding the aforementioned gain
from the second quarter of 1995,  however,  non-interest  income  increased $2.1
million. This reflects a $1.2 million improvement in mortgage banking income and
a $364 thousand increase in trust and investment income.

Non-Interest Expenses
     Non-interest  expenses  increased $10.1 million for the first six months of
1996, compared to the first six months of 1995, and includes $5.8 million of the
previously  noted  charges.  These charges  represent  $1.8 million of severance
expense,  $500 thousand of occupancy  expense and $325 thousand of furniture and
equipment expense associated with closing offices, $340 thousand of professional
fees for services associated with discontinuing certain activities, $1.0 million
associated with consolidating  operational offices,  $600 thousand from the sale
of the corporate jet, and approximately $1.2 million in other associated costs
and the disposition of related assets.  These charges taken during the second
quarter of 1996 provide for the cost of exiting several initiatives entered in
recent years which were outside the company's core financial services or which
have generated disappointing financial results.  These initiatives include human
resources consulting and venture capital.  Also included in the charges are
expenses associated with closing the Louisville, Kentucky office;  mortgage loan
production  offices  in  Chattanooga,  Jackson  and  Knoxville,  Tennessee;  and
consolidation of operations in Nashville, Tennessee and Bowling Green, Kentucky.
Severance  expense  was also  recognized  related to changes  designed to reduce
costs in the retail delivery system and investment management.  The company sold
its corporate jet, with the cost of its  disposition  included in second quarter
expenses.
     The efficiency ratio (non-interest expenses as a percentage of net interest
income before provision for loan losses plus non-interest income) for the second
quarter of 1996 was 96.8%,  versus 71.2% for the same period in 1995.  Excluding
the  previously  noted charges of $5.8  million,  the  efficiency  ratio for the
second quarter of 1996 would have been 74.2%.

Income Taxes
     Income tax benefits totaled $721 thousand for the first six months of 1996,
compared  with expense of $3.9  million in the  comparable  1995  period.  These
represent effective tax rates of 33.3% and 32.8%,  respectively.  For the second
quarter of 1996, income tax credits totaled $2.4 million, versus expense of $2.0
million in the second quarter of 1995,  reflecting  effective tax rates of 31.9%
and 33.1%, respectively.


Balance Sheet Review
Overview
     Assets at June 30,  1996  totaled  $1.867  billion,  compared  with  $1.796
billion at December  31,  1995,  and $1.679  billion a year ago.  Average  total
assets for the second quarter increased $190 million (12%) over the past year to
$1.841 billion.  Average  interest-earning  assets  increased  $161.2 million to
$1.675 billion.

Loans
     The company continues to experience strong loan growth. Total loans, net of
unearned  income,  averaged  $1.329  billion  in the  second  quarter  of  1996,
excluding  mortgage  loans held for sale of $48.2  million.  For the  comparable
period in 1995,  loans averaged $1.173  billion,  excluding the $13.0 million of
mortgage loans held for sale.
     At June 30, 1996,  loans net of unearned income  (excluding  mortgage loans
held for sale) totaled $1.363 billion,  compared with $1.259 billion at December
31, 1995, and $1.193 billion a year ago. Loans  increased at an annualized  rate
of 16.6% from year-end 1995 to June 30, 1996.

Asset Quality
     Nonperforming  loans, which include  nonaccrual loans,  accruing loans past
due 90 days or more and  restructured  loans,  totaled $11.1 million at June 30,
1996,  down $6.2 million from December 31, 1995,  and down $1.6 million from the
end of the second  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 0.81% at June 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  $14.7  million at June 30,1996 as compared to $17.3 million at June 30,
1995. The ratio of  nonperforming  assets to total assets  decreased to 0.79% at
June 30, 1996, from 1.03% 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.   However,   restructured  loans  that
demonstrate performance under restructured terms and that yield a market rate of
interest  may be removed  from  restructured  status in the year  following  the
restructure.

     Three commercial credit relationships  account for $4.1 million, or 73%, of
the company's  nonaccrual loans at June 30, 1996, and 37% of total nonperforming
and  restructured  loans.  An  allowance  for loan  losses in the amount of $584
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  $400,000.  The
change in  accruing  loans past due 90 days or more is  principally  residential
real estate loans.
     Foreclosed  real estate at June 30, 1996,  includes two properties  with an
aggregate book value of $1.8 million,  or 53% 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 June 30,  1996,  the company had $9.0 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 June 30, 1996, the allowance was $16.3 million,  up from $15.8 million
at December 31, 1995,  and $13.4  million at June 30, 1995.  The  allowance as a
percentage of  nonperforming  loans increased to 147% at June 30, 1996, from 91%
at year-end 1995 and 106% at June 30, 1995.  The ratio of the allowance for loan
losses to total loans (excluding mortgage loans held for sale) at June 30, 1996,
was 1.20%,  compared  with 1.25% at December 31,  1995,  and 1.13% at the end of
1995's second quarter.
     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'  evaluation of
their  own  portfolios  as  well  as by an  independent  loan  review  function.
Management  believes  that the  allowance  for loan losses at June 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,  decreased  from $311  million at June 30,  1995,  to $298  million at
year-end  1995,  and $287  million at June 30, 1996 - the result of  maturities,
prepayments  and calls.  Funds  provided by the  reduction  in  securities  were
utilized to fund growth in the loan portfolio.

Deposits and Borrowed Funds
     Total  deposits  averaged  $1.463 billion in the second quarter of 1996, an
increase  of $59  million,  or 4%,  from the  comparable  1995  period.  Average
interest-bearing accounts increased $19.9 million in the second quarter of 1996,
compared to the same period in 1995, while average non-interest-bearing accounts
increased $38.8 million.
     During  the second  quarter  of 1996,  the  company  issued $20  million of
two-year,  $25  million of  three-year,  and $10 million of  four-year  brokered
certificates of deposit. Excluding these transactions,  average interest-bearing
accounts would have decreased  approximately $13 million from the second quarter
of 1995 to the same period in 1996.
     Long-term  debt totaled $141 million at June 30, 1996,  an increase of $104
million from June 30, 1995. In order to support  internally-generated  growth in
the loan  portfolio,  TFB-KY issued in the end of 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 June 30, 1996,  December 31, 1995, and June
30, 1995 (calculated in accordance with regulatory guidelines) were as follows:

                            June 30,  December 31,  June 30,
                               1996      1995        1995
Tier 1 risk based .....         7.72%     8.64%     9.05%
     Regulatory minimum         4.00      4.00      4.00
Total risk based ......        10.99     12.15     12.70
     Regulatory minimum         8.00      8.00      8.00
Leverage  .........             6.24      6.70      6.87
     Regulatory minimum         3.00      3.00      3.00

     The decrease in these capital ratios during the first six 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
discussed earlier. 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 June 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   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 June 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 5.75% and 8.75%, respectively, by April
of 1997. The company's most recent  projection of pre-tax earnings at risk, as a
percentage  of the next twelve months  projected net interest  income under this
most likely  interest  rate  scenario,  is  approximately  +1.5% for a high rate
scenario,  and -0.6% for a lower  interest rate  scenario.  As of June 30, 1996,
management  believes  the  company's  balance  sheet  was in an asset  sensitive
position,  as  the  repricing   characteristics  of  the  assets  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.
