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

                                 (UNAUDITED)

        The following discussion provides information about Princeton
   National Bancorp, Inc.'s (PNB) financial condition and results of
   operations for the quarter ending June 30, 1997.  This discussion
   should be read in conjunction with the attached consolidated financial
   statements and note thereto.

   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
   ---------------------

        Net income for the second quarter of 1997 was $1,097,000, or
   $0.40 per share, an increase from the second quarter of 1996 of
   $222,000 (or 25.4%), which represents an increase of $0.08 per share
   (or 25.0%).  For the first six months of 1997, net income was
   $2,174,000 (or $0.80 per share), compared to $1,810,000 (or $0.67 per
   share) in the first six months of 1996.  Annualized return on average
   assets and return on average equity were 1.06% and 10.77%,
   respectively, for the second quarter of 1997, compared with 0.88% and
   9.22% for the second quarter of 1996.  For the six-month periods, the
   annualized returns on average assets and average equity were 1.06% and
   10.79%, respectively, for 1997, compared to 0.91% and 9.56% in 1996.

        As a result of the continued increase in the average balance of
   loans outstanding, the change in the net interest margin was again the
   most significant reason for the increase in net income.  Net interest
   income before any provision for loan losses was $3,961,000 for the
   second quarter of 1997, compared to $3,652,000 for the second quarter
   of 1996 (an increase of $309,000 or 8.5%).  Additionally, for the six-
   month periods, net interest income before any provision for loan
   losses was $7,770,000 for 1997, as compared to $7,115,000 for 1996,
   representing an increase of $655,000 (or 9.2%).  As of June 30, 1997,
   total loans represented 63.4% of total assets compared with 62.0% as
   of June 30, 1996.

        Non-interest income increased by $103,000 (or 14.0%) during the
   second quarter of 1997 as compared to the second quarter of 1996.  For
   the first six months of 1997, non-interest income has increased to
   $1,679,000 from $1,426,000 in the first six months of 1996 (an
   increase of $253,000 or 17.7%).  The majority of the overall increase
   can be seen in two categories:  service charges on deposit accounts
   and trust and farm management fees ($108,000 or 19.8% and $59,000 or
   11.9%, respectively).  Additionally, PNB incurred net losses of
   $26,000 from securities transactions in the first six months of 1996,
   while recording net gains of $68,000 in the first six months of 1997
   (an improvement to non-interest income of $94,000).

                                     11


<PAGE> 12


        Non-interest expenses for the second quarter of 1997 amounted to
   $3,105,000, a decrease of $132,000 (4.1%) from the second quarter of
   1996.  This decrease is due to a decline in trust customer expenses of
   $233,000 (or 97.1%).  Year-to-date non-interest expenses compare
   favorably in 1997 to the same time period in 1996, increasing only
   $49,000 (0.8%).  The decline in trust customer charges, as well as a
   decrease in FDIC/OCC assessments (due to lower premium rates) and
   other operating expenses, has helped offset increases in salaries and
   employee benefits and data processing expenses.  The latter having
   increased due to the Sandwich branch acquisition completed in June,
   1996.  Therefore, these categories would not have been influenced in
   the first six months of 1996.

   ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
   -------------------------------

        Total assets at June 30, 1997 increased to $428,405,000 from
   $420,407,000 at December 31, 1996 ($8.0 million or 1.9%).  This
   increase is attributable mainly to local governmental taxing bodies
   having large balances on deposit with the bank at June 30 due to real
   estate tax collections during the latter part of June.  This increase
   is reflected in the interest-bearing demand category of deposits as it
   increased from $78.9 million on December 31, 1996 to $85.0 million on
   June 30, 1997 ($6.1 million or 7.7%).  Time deposits and savings
   deposits also increased over the same time frame ($5.3 million and
   $0.5 million, respectively) offsetting a decrease in demand deposits
   of $3.4 million.  Additionally, customer repurchase agreements have
   decreased in the first six months by $4.2 million or 36.2%.

        Loan demand has been very strong during the first six months of
   1997.  Loan balances, net of unearned interest, increased to
   $271,380,000 at June 30, 1997, compared to $260,780,000 at December
   31, 1996 (an increase of $10.6 million or 4.1%).  Non-performing loans
   totaled $1,281,000 or 0.47% of net loans at June 30, 1997, as compared
   to $1,157,000 or 0.45% of net loans at December 31, 1996.  As a result
   of the continued strong loan demand, total investment securities
   decreased from $117.0 million at December 31, 1996 to $110.0 million
   at June 30, 1997.

        During the first six months of 1997, PNB charged off $449,000 of
   loans and had recoveries of $285,000.  This compares to charge-offs of
   $639,000 and recoveries of $570,000 during the first six months of
   1996.  The allowance for possible loan losses is based on factors that
   include the overall composition of the loan portfolio, types of loans,
   past loss experience, loan delinquencies, potential substandard and
   doubtful credits, and such other factors that, in management's best
   judgement, deserve evaluation.  The adequacy of the allowance is
   monitored monthly.  During the first six months of 1997, PNB recorded
   a loan loss expense of $312,000.  This is a result of the higher
   charge-offs and net losses that were incurred in 1996, particularly in
   the installment loan category.  While management has strengthened
   underwriting practices in this area, management also expects to

                                     12

   continue to increase the balance in the allowance for possible loan
   losses.  At June 30, 1997, the balance in the allowance was $1,778,000
   which is 0.66% of total loans, compared with $1,630,000 or 0.63% of
   total loans at December 31, 1996.

        At June 30, 1997, the recorded balance in loans for which
   impairment has been recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No.
   114 totaled $723,000, all of which related to impaired loans which do
   not require a related allowance for possible loan losses as the
   carrying value of the loans exceeds the discounted present value of
   expected future cash flows.  Interest recognized on impaired loans
   (during the portion of this quarter that they were impaired) is not
   considered material.

   CAPITAL RESOURCES
   -----------------

        Federal regulations require all financial institutions to
   evaluate capital adequacy by the risk-based capital method, which
   makes capital requirements more sensitive to the differences in the
   level of risk assets.  At June 30, 1997, total risk-based capital was
   14.73%, compared to 13.88% at December 31, 1996.  Accordingly, the
   Tier 1 capital ratio also increased from 8.59% at December 31, 1996,
   to 8.87% at June 30, 1997.  Total stockholders' equity to total assets
   at June 30, 1997 increased to 9.77% from 9.56% at December 31, 1996.  

   LIQUIDITY
   ---------

        Liquidity is measured by a financial institution's ability to
   raise funds through deposits, borrowed funds, capital, or the sale of
   assets.  Additional sources of liquidity, including cash flow from 
   both the repayment of loans and the securitization of assets, are also
   considered in determining whether liquidity is satisfactory.  Cash
   flows provided by operating and financing activities, offset by those
   used by investing activities, resulted in a net increase in cash and
   cash equivalents of $4,945,000 from December 31, 1996 to June 30,
   1997.  This provision was due largely to a net increase in deposits
   and a decrease in investments (maturities and sales greater than
   purchases), offset by a net increase in loans.  For more detailed cash
   flow information, see PNB's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

   IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
   ----------------------------------

        In February 1997, FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share"
   (FAS 128), was issued.  FAS 128 supersedes APB Opinion No. 15,
   Earnings Per Share and specifies the computation, presentation, and
   disclosure requirements for earnings per share (EPS) for entities with
   publicly held common stock or potential common stock.  FAS 128 was
   issued to simplify the computation of EPS and to make the U.S.
   standard more compatible with the EPS standards of other countries and

                                     13

   that of the International Accounting Standards Committee.  It replaces
   the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and
   fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS.  It also requires dual
   presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income
   statement for all entities with complex capital structures and
   requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the
   basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted
   EPS computation.

        Basic EPS, unlike primary EPS, excludes dilution and is computed
   by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-
   average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted
   EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
   other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into
   common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.  Diluted
   EPS is a computed similarity to fully diluted EPS under APB 15.

        FAS 128 is effective for financial statements for both interim
   and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997.  Earlier
   application is not permitted (although pro forma EPS disclosure in the
   footnotes for periods prior to required adoption is permitted).  After
   adoption, all prior-period EPS data presented shall be restated to
   conform with FAS 128.  PNB does not expect adoption of FAS 128 to have
   a significant impact on its financial statements.

   EFFECTS OF INFLATION
   --------------------

        The consolidated financial statements and related consolidated
   financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with
   generally accepted accounting principles and practices within the
   banking industry which require the measurement of financial position
   and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without
   considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over
   time due to inflation.  Unlike most industrial companies, virtually
   all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary
   in nature.  As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact
   on a financial institution's performance than the effects of general
   levels of inflation.
