ITEM 1. BUSINESS OF MID-AMERICA BANCORP

Mid-America Bancorp (the "Company") is a Kentucky corporation
registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"), and as a savings
and loan holding company pursuant to the Home Owners' Loan Act. 
The Company is registered with,  and subject to, the supervision of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal
Reserve Board") and the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS").

The Company's banking subsidiary, Mid-America Bank of Louisville
and Trust Company (the "Bank"), represents the Company's primary
subsidiary.  The Bank was established as a Kentucky banking
corporation on October 14, 1925, under the name "Morris Plan
Industrial Bank."  On July 2, 1946 the Bank's name was changed to
"Bank of Louisville."  The Bank merged with "Royal Bank and Trust
Company" in 1963 under the name Bank of Louisville-Royal Bank and
Trust Co.  The Bank's name was changed to Bank of Louisville and
Trust Company on March 26, 1980.  The present name of the Bank was
adopted on March 25, 1983, when the Bank became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.  

The Bank is engaged in a wide range of commercial, trust, and
personal banking activities including the usual acceptance of
deposits for checking, savings and time deposit accounts; making of
real estate,  construction, commercial, home improvement and
consumer loans; issuance of letters of credit; rental of safe
deposit boxes; providing financial counseling for institutions and
individuals; serving as executor of estates and as trustee under
trusts and under various pension and employee benefit plans;
serving as escrow agent on bond issues; serving as stock transfer
agent,  exchange agent, dividend disbursing agent, and registrar
with respect to corporate securities; and participation in small
business loan and student loan programs.

The Company also operates a number of other subsidiaries, including
Mid-America Bank, FSB, a federal savings bank ("Savings Bank"),
which was organized and chartered during 1993.  The Savings Bank is
located in Pewee Valley and LaGrange, Kentucky in Oldham County,
and competes on the local level with other commercial banks and
financial institutions in Oldham County, Kentucky for all types of
deposits and loans.  Another subsidiary, Mid-America Money Order
Company, is engaged in the issuance and sale throughout the United
States of retail money orders and similar consumer-type payment
instruments having a face value of not more than $2,000.  As of
December 31, 1995, Mid-America Money Order Company was licensed to
issue money orders in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, the
U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.

Competition

Competition for banking and related financial services is active in
Jefferson County, Kentucky and other geographic areas served by the
Company's subsidiaries.  The Company's subsidiaries compete with
other financial institutions including savings and loan
associations, finance companies, mortgage banking companies, credit
unions, insurance companies, brokerage firms, mutual funds, and
other commercial banks.  In addition, large regional banks continue
to increase competition in the Company's trade territories through
the acquisition of local financial institutions, the establishment
of loan production offices and the solicitation of customers for
credit cards and related services.  At present, both price and
product range are critically important in maintaining and expanding
financial relationships.

On December 31, 1995, the Bank ranked fifth among banks and trust
companies in the City of Louisville and in Jefferson County,
Kentucky, in terms of total assets and in terms of total deposits. 
On December 31, 1995 there were eleven commercial banks and trust
companies in Jefferson County, including the Bank.

Employees

As of December 31, 1995, the Company and subsidiaries employed 601
persons on a full-time basis and 111 on a part-time basis.

Government Policies

As a financial institution holding company, the earnings of the
Company are affected by state and federal laws and by policies of
various federal and state regulatory agencies.  These policies
include, for example, statutory maximum legal lending rates,
domestic monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board, United
States fiscal policy, and capital adequacy and liquidity
constraints imposed by bank regulatory agencies.

Supervision And Regulation

The Company is a registered bank holding company under the BHC Act,
and is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the
Federal Reserve Board.  Under the BHC Act, a bank holding company
is,  with limited exceptions, prohibited from (i) acquiring direct
or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any
company which is not a bank or (ii) engaging in any activity other
than managing or controlling banks.  Notwithstanding this
prohibition, a bank holding company may engage in or own shares of 
a company that engages solely in activities which the Federal
Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking,
or managing or controlling banks, as to be a proper incident
thereto.

As a registered bank holding company, the Company is required to
file with the Federal Reserve Board annual reports and other
information regarding its business operations and the business
operations of its subsidiaries.  It is also subject to examination
by the Federal Reserve Board and is required to obtain Federal
Reserve Board approval prior to acquiring, directly or indirectly,
ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank, if, after
such acquisition, it would own or control, directly or indirectly,
more than five percent of the voting stock of such bank unless it
already owns a majority of the voting stock of such bank.

The Bank is subject to regulation and supervision, of which regular
bank examinations are a part, by the Kentucky Department of
Financial Institutions, Division of Banking.  The Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") currently insures the deposits of
the Bank to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor.  For this
protection, the Bank pays a semi-annual statutory assessment and is
subject to the rules and regulations of the FDIC pertaining to
deposit insurance.  On July 13, 1989, the Bank became a member bank
in the Federal Reserve System.  The Federal Reserve Board retains
direct supervision of state chartered member banks and their
affiliates through periodic examinations, the expense of which is
borne by the Bank.

The Savings Bank is subject to regulation and supervision, of which
regular examinations are a part, by the OTS.  The FDIC currently
insures the deposits of the Savings Bank to a maximum of $100,000
per depositor.
 
Eton Life Insurance Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, is regulated by the Kentucky Department of Insurance and
is subject to Kentucky statutes and regulations governing domestic
underwriters of credit life, accident, and health insurance.

The enactment in August 1989 of the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") placed the savings
and loan insurance fund under the control of the FDIC, created the
OTS in the U.S. Treasury Department and created the Resolution
Trust Corporation to act as receiver to liquidate failed thrift
institutions.  FIRREA further expanded the power of bank holding
companies to allow for the acquisition of savings associations and
to operate them as separate thrift subsidiaries.  FIRREA enhanced
the ability of bank holding companies to expand through thrift
acquisitions beyond their present geographic interstate banking
region.  The tandem restrictions placed upon thrift subsidiaries of
bank holding companies have been removed allowing linkage of
deposit-taking activities and solicitation of deposits and loans on
behalf of affiliate companies.  FIRREA led to many structural
changes in competition for loans, deposits and other services,
affected collateral valuation methods, and the acquisition of
financial institutions.

In addition to FIRREA, in December 1991 the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (the "FDIC
Improvement Act") was enacted.  The FDIC Improvement Act dealt with
the recapitalization of the Bank Insurance Fund, deposit insurance
reform, including requiring the FDIC to establish a risk-based
premium assessment system, and a number of other regulatory and
supervisory matters.    

In 1994 the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency
Act of 1994 (the "Act") was signed into law.  When fully phased in,
the Act will remove state law barriers to interstate bank
acquisitions and will permit the consolidation of interstate
banking operations.  Under the Act, effective September 29, 1995,
adequately capitalized and managed bank holding companies may
acquire banks in any state, subject to Community Reinvestment Act
compliance, compliance with federal and state antitrust laws and
deposit concentration limits, and subject to any state laws
restricting the acquisition of a bank that has not been in
existence for a minimum time period (up to five years).  Effective
September 29, 1995, the Act also permits any bank that is
controlled by a bank holding company to act as agent for any
affiliated financial institution in deposit and loan transactions,
regardless of whether the institutions are located in the same or
different states.  The Act's interstate branching provisions will
become operative on June 1, 1997, although any state can, prior to
that time, adopt legislation to accelerate interstate branching or
prohibit it completely.  The Act's interstate branching provisions
will permit banks to merge across state lines and, if state laws
permit de novo branching, to establish a new branch as its initial
entry into a state.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level sufficient to
absorb estimated probable credit losses.  Management determines the
adequacy of the allowance based upon reviews of individual credits,
evaluation of the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio,
including the impact of current economic conditions on the borrowers'
ability to repay, past collection and loss experience and such other
factors, which, in management's judgment, deserve current recognition.
 The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to operating
earnings and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.  See
"Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses" included on
pages 9 and 10 of the Company's annual report to shareholders for the
year ended  December 31, 1995, incorporated herein by reference, for a

                            ARTICLE I

                             Offices

1.1       Principal Office. The principal office of the
Corporation in the Commonwealth of Kentucky shall be located in
the City of Louisville. The Corporation may have such other
offices, either within or without the Commonwealth of Kentucky,
as the business of the Corporation may require from time to time.

1.2       Registered Office. The registered office of the
Corporation may be, but need not be, identical with its principal
office in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The address of the
registered office may be changed from time to time by the Board
of Directors.

                            ARTICLE II

                           Shareholders

2.1       Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of the shareholders
shall be held at such time, place and on such date as the
Chairman of the Board may designate, said date to be no later
than six months following the end of the Corporation's fiscal
year. The purpose of such meetings shall be the election of
directors and the transaction of such other business as may
properly come before it. If the election of directors shall not
be held on the day designated for an annual meeting, or at any
adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the
election to be held at a special meeting of the shareholders to
be held as soon thereafter as may be practicable.

2.2       Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders
may be called by the Chairman of the Board or by a majority of
the members of the Board of Directors, or by the holders of not
less than one-fifth of all the outstanding shares of the
Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting.

2.3       Place of Special Meetings. The Board of Directors may
designate any place within or without the Commonwealth of
Kentucky as the place for any special meeting of shareholders
called by the Board of Directors. A waiver of notice signed by
all shareholders may include a designation of any place, either
within or without the Commonwealth of Kentucky, as the place for
the holding of such meeting. If no designation is properly made,
or if a special meeting be otherwise called, the place of meeting
shall be at the registered office of the Corporation in the
Commonwealth of Kentucky.

2.4       Notice of Annual or Special Meeting . Written notice
stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in case of a
special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is
called, shall be delivered not less than 10 days nor more than 50
days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by
mail, by or at the direction of the Chairman of the Board or the
Secretary, or the person calling the meeting, to each shareholder
of record entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, such
notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the
United States mail in a sealed envelope addressed to the
shareholder at his address as it appears on the stock transfer
books of the Corporation, with postage prepaid.

2.5       Meetings by Consent of All Shareholders. If all the
shareholders shall meet at any time and place and consent in
writing to the holding of a meeting, such meeting shall be valid
without call or notice, and at such meeting, any corporate action
may be taken.

2.6       Waiver and Consent to Meetings of Less Than All
Shareholders. If a shareholder meeting shall occur without all
shareholders in attendance, a prior or subsequent written waiver
of notice or consent to the holding of such meeting by the absent
shareholders shall be equivalent to the call and giving of any
requisite notice, and such meeting shall be valid without call or
notice, and any corporate action may be taken at such meeting.

2.7       Closing Transfer Books and Fixing of a Record Date. The
Board of Directors of the Corporation may close its stock
transfer books for a period not exceeding 70 days nor less than
10 days, immediately prior to the date of any meeting of
shareholders, or the date for the payment of any dividend or for
the allotment of rights, or the date when any exchange or
reclassification of shares shall be effective; or in lieu
thereof, may fix in advance a date, not exceeding 70 days and not
Less than 10 days prior to the date of any meeting of
shareholders, or to the date for the payment of any dividend or
for the allotment of rights, or to the date when any exchange or
reclassification of shares shall be effective, as the record date
for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, or
to vote at, such meeting, or shareholders entitled to  receive
payment of any such dividend or to receive any such allotment of
rights, or to exercise rights in respect of any exchange or
reclassification of shares. The shareholders of record on such
record date shall be the shareholders entitled to notice of, and
to vote at, such meeting, or to  receive payment of such dividend
or to receive such allotment of rights, or to exercise such
rights, in the event of an exchange or reclassification of
shares, as the case may be. If the transfer books are not closed
and no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the date
on which notice of the meeting is mailed, or the date on which
the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend
is adopted or such other action is taken, as the case may be,
shall be deemed to be the record date for the determination of
the shareholders of the Corporation and the number of shares
owned by them for all of the purposes set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence. When a determination of
shareholders has been made as provided herein, such determination
shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting for which such
determination was made.

2.8       Voting Record. The officer or agent having charge of
the Corporation's stock transfer books shall make a complete list
of the shareholders entitled to vote at each meeting, arranged in
alphabetical order, with the address of, and the number of shares
held by, each shareholder. Such list shall be produced and kept
open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to
the inspection of any shareholder during the whole course of the
meeting.

2.9       Quorum. A majority of the outstanding shares of the
Corporation entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy,
shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders. If a
quorum of shareholders is present, the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to
vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders,
unless the vote of a greater number or voting by classes is
required by the Kentucky Business Corporation Act or by the
Articles of Incorporation or these By-Laws. The shareholders
present at a duly organized meeting can continue to do business
until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough
shareholders to leave less than a quorum. 

2.10      Proxies. At all meetings of shareholders, a shareholder
may vote by proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or by
his duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Such proxy shall be filed
with the Secretary of the Corporation before or at the time of
the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after 11 months from the
date of its execution, unless otherwise provide in the proxy, but
in no event shall a proxy, unless coupled with an interest, be
voted on after three years from the date of its execution. A
proxy, unless coupled with an interest, may be revoked in writing
at any time. The effective time of  such revocation shall be the
time the Secretary of the Corporation receives the written notice
of revocation.

2.11      Voting of Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section
2.13 and any provisions of the Articles of Incorporation to the
contrary, each outstanding share of common stock authorized by
the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation to have voting power
shall be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a
vote at a meeting of shareholders. The voting rights, if any, of
classes of shares other than voting common stock shall be as set
forth in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation or by
appropriate legal action of the Board of Directors.

2.12      Voting of Shares by Certain Holders.

(a)  Shares standing in the name of another corporation may be
voted by that corporation's President or by proxy appointed by
him or by such other officer, agent or proxy as the by-laws of
such corporation may prescribe or, in the absence of such
provision, as the Board of Directors of such other corporation
may determine.

(b)  Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian or
conservator may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy,
without a transfer of such shares into his name. Shares standing
in the name of a trustee may be voted by him, either in person or
by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by
him without a transfer of such shares into his name.

(c)  Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by
such receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a
receiver may be voted by such receiver without the transfer
thereof into his name if authority so to do be contained in an
appropriate order of the court by which such receiver was
appointed.

(d)  Where shares are held jointly by two or more fiduciaries,
unless the Secretary of the Corporation is given written notice
to the contrary by any of such fiduciaries, the vote of one or
more of such fiduciaries shall be presumed to be the vote of all
such fiduciaries. Where shares are held jointly by two or more
fiduciaries, the will of the majority (or both in the case of two
fiduciaries) of such fiduciaries shall control the manner of
voting or the giving of a proxy unless the instrument or order
appointing the fiduciaries otherwise directs. Where, in any case,
fiduciaries are equally divided upon the manner of voting shares
jointly held by them, any court of competent jurisdiction may,
upon petition filed by any of the fiduciaries, or by any
beneficiary, appoint an additional person to act with the
fiduciaries in determining  the manner in which the shares shall
be voted upon the particular questions as to which the
fiduciaries are divided.

(e)  A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to
vote such shares until the shares have been transferred into the
name of the pledgee, and thereafter, the pledgee shall be
entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

(f)  Neither treasury shares of its own stock held by the
Corporation, nor shares held by another corporation if a majority
of the shares entitled to vote for the election of directors of
such other corporation is held by the Corporation, shall be voted
at any meeting or counted in determining the total number of
outstanding shares at any given time.

(g)  The Secretary or any shareholder may demand written proof
that the person asserting the right to vote shares pursuant to
this Section 2.12 holds the position he claims to hold and has
been properly authorized to vote the shares he represents. Such
proof, if demanded, shall be presented prior to the voting of
such shares by such person.

2.13      Cumulative Voting. At each election for directors, each
shareholder entitled to vote at such election shall have the
right to cast, in person or by proxy, as many votes in the
aggregate as he shall be entitled to vote under the Corporation's
Articles of Incorporation, multiplied by the number of directors
to be elected at such election; and each shareholder may cast the
whole number of votes for one candidate or distribute such votes
in whole numbers among two or more candidates. Directors shall
not be elected in any other manner.

2.14      Action by Consent of Shareholders. Any action required

                           ARTICLE III

                           Directors

3.1       General Powers. The business affairs of the Corporation
shall be managed by its Board of Directors.

3.2       Number and Tenure. The Board of Directors shall consist
of not fewer than 10 nor more than 21 individuals, with the exact
number of individuals within such range to be determined by
resolution of the Board of Directors from time to time. Each
director shall hold office until the next annual meeting or
shareholders or until removed. Despite the expiration of a
director's term, such director shall continue to serve until (a)
the director's successor is elected and qualifies, (b) there is a
decrease in the number of directors, or (c) the director is
removed. A decrease in the number of directors shall not shorten
an incumbent director's term. 

3.3       Removal and Resignations. At a meeting of shareholders
called expressly for that purpose, any director or the entire
Board of Directors may be removed, with or with- out cause, by a
vote of the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to
vote at an election of directors. If less than the entire Board
is to be removed, no one of the directors may be removed if the
votes cast against his removal be sufficient to elect him if then
cumulatively voted at an election of the entire Board of
Directors or, if there be classes of directors, at an election of
the class of directors of which he is a part. Whenever the
holders of the shares of any class are entitled to elect one or
more directors by the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation, the provisions of this Section shall apply, in
respect to the removal of a director or directors so elected, to
the vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of that class
and not to the vote of the outstanding shares as a whole. Any
member of the Board of Directors may resign from the Board of
Directors at any time by giving written notice to the President
or Secretary of the Corporation, and unless otherwise specified
therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be
necessary to make it effective. 

3.4       Annual and Regular Meetings. An annual meeting of the
Board of Directors shall be held without other notice than this
By-Law immediately after, and at the same place as, the annual
meeting of shareholders. The Board of Directors may provide by

Commonwealth of Kentucky, for the holding of regular meetings
without other notice than such resolution.

3.5       Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be called by, or at the request of, the Chairman of
the Board or, if the Corporation has more than one director, any
two directors. All special meetings of the Board of Directors
shall be held at the principal office of the Corporation or such
other place as may be specified in the notice of the meeting.

3.6       Notice. Notice of any special meeting shall be given at
least two days prior thereto by written notice delivered
personally or mailed to each director at his business address, or
by telegram. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be
delivered when deposited in the United States mail in a sealed
envelope so addressed, with postage prepaid. If notice be given
by telegram, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when the
telegram is delivered to the telegraph company. Any  director may
waive notice of any meeting. The attendance of a director at any
meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting,
except where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose
of objecting to the transaction of any business because the
meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business
to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special
meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice
or waiver of notice of such meeting.

3.7       Quorum. A majority of the number of directors fixed by,
or determined in accordance with, the Articles of Incorporation
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any
meeting of the Board of Directors, provided, if less than a
majority of the directors are present at said meeting, a majority
of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to
time without further notice.

3.8       Manner of Acting. The act of the majority of the
directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall
be the act of the Board of Directors, unless otherwise required
by the Articles of Incorporation.

3.9       Vacancies. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of
Directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of
the remaining directors though less than a quorum of the Board of
Directors. A director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected
for the unexpired term of his predecessor in office. Any
directorship to be filled by reason of an increase in the number
of directors may be filled by the Board of Directors for a term
of office continuing only until the next election of directors by
the shareholders.

3.10      Compensation. By resolution of the Board of Directors
each director may be paid his expenses, if any, of attendance at
each meeting of the Board of Directors, and may be paid a stated
annual stipend as director or a fixed sum for attendance at each
meeting of the Board of Directors. No such payment shall preclude
any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity
and receiving compensation therefor.

3.11      Action by Written Consent. Any action required to be
taken by the Board of Directors at a meeting may be taken without
a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so
taken, shall be signed by all of the directors.

3.12      Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Board. The Board of
Directors may appoint one of its members Chairman of the Board of
Directors. The Board of Directors may also appoint one of its
members as Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors, and such
individual shall serve in the absence of the Chairman and perform
such additional duties as may be assigned to him by the Board of
Directors.

               be given within six months of the Board learning of
               such act or acts or failure to act. The Executive
               shall have 10 days after the date that such written

               Executive, provided he requests such hearing.

          (ii) In the event the Companies terminate the
               Executive's employment for Cause, he shall be
               entitled to:

          death, or in the event there is a Constructive
          Termination Without Cause, the Executive shall be
          entitled to:

               (i)  The Base Salary through the date of

                    effect on the date of termination of the
                    Executive's employment (or in the event a
                    reduction in Base Salary is the basis for a
                    Constructive Termination Without Cause, then

                    the Executive's option the Companies shall pay
                    him the present value of such salary
                    continuation payments in a lump sum (using as
                    the discount rate the Applicable Federal Rate

                    the month in which such termination occurs);

                         insurance coverage and in other employee
                         benefit plans or programs in which he was
                         participating on the date of the
                         termination of his employment until the
                         earlier of:

                    (A)  The end of the period during which he is
                         receiving salary continuation payments

                         severance payment is made);

                    (B)  The date, or dates, he receives
                         equivalent coverage and benefits under
                         the plans and programs of a subsequent
                         employer (such coverages and benefits to
                         be determined on a coverage-by-coverage,
                         or benefit-by-benefit, basis); provided
                         that (x) if the Executive is precluded
                         from continuing his participation in any
                         employee benefit plan or program as

                         Section 8(c), he shall be provided with
                         the after-tax economic equivalent of the
                         benefit provided under the plan or
                         program in which he is unable to
                         participate for the period specified in
                         this clause (vii) of this Section 8(c),
                         (y) the economic equivalent of any
                         benefit foregone shall be deemed to be
                         the lowest cost that would be incurred by
                         the Executive in obtaining such benefit
                         himself on an individual basis, and (z)
                         payment of such after-tax economic
                         equivalent shall be made quarterly in
                         advance; and

               (viii)    Other or additional benefits in
                         accordance with applicable plans and
                         programs of the Companies to the date of
                         termination.

          (d)  Termination of Employment Following a Change in
               Control. If following a change in Control, the
               Executive's employment is terminated without Cause
               or there is a Constructive Termination Without
               Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to the
               payments and benefits provided in Section 8(c),
               provided that the salary continuation payments
               shall be paid in a lump sum without any discount.
               Also, immediately following a Change in Control,
               all amounts, entitlements or benefits in which he
               is not yet vested shall become fully vested except
               to the extent such vesting would be inconsistent
               with the terms of the relevant plan.

          (e)  Voluntary Termination. In the event of a
               termination of employment by the Executive on his

               without Cause, the Executive shall have the same
               entitlements as provided in Section 8(b)(ii) for a
               Termination for Cause.  A voluntary termination
               under this Section 8(e) shall be effective upon 30
               days prior notice to a Company and shall not be
               deemed a breach of this Agreement. 

          (f)  Limitation Following a Change in Control. In the
               event that the termination of the Executive's
               employment is for one of the reasons set forth in
               Section 8(e) above and the aggregate of all
               payments or benefits made or provided to the
               Executive under Section 8(d) above and under all
               other plans and programs of the Companies (the
               "Aggregate Payment") is determined to constitute a
               Parachute Payment, as such term is defined in
               Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of
               1986, as amended, notwithstanding any other
               provision of this Agreement to the contrary the
               aggregate amount of payments or benefits paid by
               the Companies to the Executive pursuant to this
               Agreement, the amount to be paid to the Executive
               and the time of payment pursuant to this Section
               8(f) shall be adjusted so as to make such payments
               fully deductible by a Company. If the parties are
               unable to agree upon an Auditor to calculate such
               an adjustment, then the Executive and Companies
               shall each select one accounting firm and those two
               firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to
               serve as the Auditor.

          (g)  No Mitigation - No Offset. In the event of any
               termination of employment under this Section 8, the
               Executive shall be under no obligation to seek
               other employment and there shall be no offset
               against amounts due the Executive under this
               Agreement on account of any remuneration
               attributable to any subsequent employment that he
               may obtain except as specifically provided in this
               Section 8.

          (h)  Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this
               Section 8 are in the nature of severance payments
               considered to be reasonable by the Companies and
               are not in the nature of a penalty.

     9.   Indemnification.

     (a)  The Companies agree that if the Executive is made a
          party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any
          action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
          administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding"), by
          reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer
          or employee of the Companies or is or was serving at the
          request of the Companies as a director, officer, member,
          employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
          joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including
          service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether
          or not the basis of such Proceeding is the Executive's
          alleged action in an official capacity while serving as
          a director, officer, member, employee or agent, the
          Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
          Companies to the fullest extent permitted or authorized
          by the Companies' certificates of incorporation or bylaws
          or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Kentucky,
          against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including,
          without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees,
          judgments, fines, ERISA fines, excise taxes or penalties
          and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably
          incurred or suffered by the Executive in connection
          therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to
          the Executive even if he has ceased to be a director,
          member, employee or agent of the Companies or other
          entity and shall inure to the benefit of the Executive's
          heirs, executors and administrators. The Companies shall
          advance to the Executive all reasonable costs and
          expenses incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding
          within 20 days after receipt by a Company of a written
          request for such advance. Such request shall include an
          undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount of such
          advance if it shall ultimately be determined that he is
          not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and
          expenses.

     (b)  Neither the failure of a Company (including its board of
          directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to
          have made a determination prior to the commencement of
          any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by
          the Executive under Section 10(a) that indemnification of
          the Executive is proper because he has met the applicable
          standard of conduct, nor a determination by a Company
          (including its board of directors, independent legal
          counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met
          such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
          presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable
          standard of conduct.

     (c)  The Companies agree to continue and maintain a directors'
          and officers' liability insurance policy covering the
          Executive to the extent either Company provides such
          coverage for its other executive officers.

     10.  Representation.

     The Companies represent and warrant that they are fully
authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the
performance of their obligations under this Agreement will not
violate any agreement between it and any other person, form or
organization.

     11.  Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement
between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions,
negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the
Parties with respect thereto.

     12.  Amendment or Waiver.

     No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such
amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and
an authorized officer of the Companies. No waiver by either Party
of any breach by the other Party of any condition or provision
contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other Party
shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or
provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver
must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized
officer of the Companies, as the case may be.

     13.  Severability.

     In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement
shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason,
in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement
shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and
effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     14.  Survivorship.

     The respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder
shall survive any termination of the Executive's employment to the
extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and
obligations.

     15.  Resolution of Disputes.

     Any disputes arising under or in connection with this
Agreement shall, at the election of the Executive or the Companies,
be resolved by binding arbitration, to be held in Kentucky in
accordance with the rules and procedures of the American
Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the
arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. Costs of the arbitration or litigation, including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees of both Parties, shall be borne by the
Companies, provided that if the arbitrator(s) determine that the
claims or defenses of the Executive were without any reasonable
basis, each Party shall bear his or its own costs.

     16.  Notices.

     Any notice given to a party shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been given when delivered personally or sent by
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt

               unless the provisions of this paragraph (i) are
               complied with. The Executive shall be given written
               notice by the Board of the intention to terminate
               him for Cause, such notice (A) to state in detail
               the particular act or acts or failure or failures
               to act that constitute the grounds on which the
               proposed termination for Cause is based and (B) to
               be given within six months of the Board learning of
               such act or acts or failure to act. The Executive
               shall have 10 days after the date that such written
               notice has been given to the Executive in which to
               request a hearing before the Board. Such hearing
               shall be held within 15 days of such notice to the
               Executive, provided he requests such hearing.

          (ii) In the event the Companies terminate the
               Executive's employment for Cause, he shall be
               entitled to:

               (A)  The Base Salary through the date of the
                    termination of his employment for Cause;

               (B)  Any incentive awards earned (but not yet
                    paid);

               (C)  Any pension benefit that may become due
                    pursuant to Section 6 above, determined as of
                    the date of such termination;

               (D)  Other or additional benefits in accordance
                    with applicable plans or programs of the
                    Companies to the date of termination.

     (b)  Termination Without Cause or Constructive Termination
          Without Cause. In the event the Executive's employment is
          terminated without Cause, other than due to Disability or
          death, or in the event there is a Constructive
          Termination Without Cause, the Executive shall be
          entitled to:

               (i)  The Base Salary through the date of
                    termination of the Executive's employment;

               (ii) The Base Salary, at the annualized rate in
                    effect on the date of termination of the
                    Executive's employment (or in the event a
                    reduction in Base Salary is the basis for a
                    Constructive Termination Without Cause, then
                    the Base Salary in effect immediately prior to
                    such reduction), for a period of 36 months
                    following such termination; provided that at
                    the Executive's option the Companies shall pay
                    him the present value of such salary
                    continuation payments in a lump sum (using as
                    the discount rate the Applicable Federal Rate
                    for short term Treasury obligations as
                    published by the Internal Revenue Service for
                    the month in which such termination occurs);

               (iii)     The balance of any incentive awards
                         earned (but not yet paid);

               (iv) The right to exercise any stock option in
                    full, whether or not such right is exercisable
                    pursuant to the terms of the grant.

               (v)  Any pension benefit that may become due
                    pursuant to Section 6 above;

               (vi) Continued accrual of credited service for the
                    purpose of the pension benefit provided under
                    Section 6 above for the period of 36 months or
                    his attainment of age 65, whichever shall
                    first occur;

               (vii)     Continued participation in all medical,
                         dental, hospitalization and life
                         insurance coverage and in other employee
                         benefit plans or programs in which he was
                         participating on the date of the
                         termination of his employment until the
                         earlier of:

                    (A)  The end of the period during which he is
                         receiving salary continuation payments
                         (or in respect of which a lump-sum
                         severance payment is made);

                    (B)  The date, or dates, he receives
                         equivalent coverage and benefits under
                         the plans and programs of a subsequent
                         employer (such coverages and benefits to
                         be determined on a coverage-by-coverage,
                         or benefit-by-benefit, basis); provided
                         that (x) if the Executive is precluded
                         from continuing his participation in any
                         employee benefit plan or program as
                         provided in this clause (vii) of this
                         Section 8(c), he shall be provided with
                         the after-tax economic equivalent of the
                         benefit provided under the plan or
                         program in which he is unable to
                         participate for the period specified in
                         this clause (vii) of this Section 8(c),
                         (y) the economic equivalent of any
                         benefit foregone shall be deemed to be
                         the lowest cost that would be incurred by
                         the Executive in obtaining such benefit
                         himself on an individual basis, and (z)
                         payment of such after-tax economic
                         equivalent shall be made quarterly in
                         advance; and

               (viii)    Other or additional benefits in
                         accordance with applicable plans and
                         programs of the Companies to the date of
                         termination.

          (c)  Termination of Employment Following a Change in
               Control. If following a change in Control, the
               Executive's employment is terminated without Cause
               or there is a Constructive Termination Without
               Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to the
               payments and benefits provided in Section 8(c),
               provided that the salary continuation payments
               shall be paid in a lump sum without any discount.
               Also, immediately following a Change in Control,
               all amounts, entitlements or benefits in which he
               is not yet vested shall become fully vested except
               to the extent such vesting would be inconsistent
               with the terms of the relevant plan.

          (d)  Voluntary Termination. In the event of a
               termination of employment by the Executive on his
               own initiative other than a termination due to
               death or Disability or a Constructive Termination
               without Cause, the Executive shall have the same
               entitlements as provided in Section 8(b)(ii) for a
               Termination for Cause.  A voluntary termination
               under this Section 8(d) shall be effective upon 30
               days prior notice to a Company and shall not be
               deemed a breach of this Agreement. 

          (e)  Limitation Following a Change in Control. In the
               event that the termination of the Executive's
               employment is for one of the reasons set forth in
               Section 8(d) above and the aggregate of all
               payments or benefits made or provided to the
               Executive under Section 8(c) above and under all
               other plans and programs of the Companies (the
               "Aggregate Payment") is determined to constitute a
               Parachute Payment, as such term is defined in
               Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of
               1986, as amended, notwithstanding any other
               provision of this Agreement to the contrary the
               aggregate amount of payments or benefits paid by
               the Companies to the Executive pursuant to this
               Agreement, the amount to be paid to the Executive
               and the time of payment pursuant to this Section
               8(e) shall be adjusted so as to make such payments
               fully deductible by a Company. If the parties are
               unable to agree upon an Auditor to calculate such
               an adjustment, then the Executive and Companies
               shall each select one accounting firm and those two
               firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to
               serve as the Auditor.

          (f)  No Mitigation - No Offset. In the event of any
               termination of employment under this Section 8, the
               Executive shall be under no obligation to seek
               other employment and there shall be no offset
               against amounts due the Executive under this
               Agreement on account of any remuneration
               attributable to any subsequent employment that he
               may obtain except as specifically provided in this
               Section 8.

          (h)  Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this
               Section 8 are in the nature of severance payments
               considered to be reasonable by the Companies and
               are not in the nature of a penalty.

     9.   Indemnification.

     (a)  The Companies agree that if the Executive is made a
          party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any
          action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
          administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding"), by
          reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer
          or employee of the Companies or is or was serving at the
          request of the Companies as a director, officer, member,
          employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
          joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including
          service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether
          or not the basis of such Proceeding is the Executive's
          alleged action in an official capacity while serving as
          a director, officer, member, employee or agent, the
          Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
          Companies to the fullest extent permitted or authorized
          by the Companies' certificates of incorporation or bylaws
          or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Kentucky,
          against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including,
          without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees,
          judgments, fines, ERISA fines, excise taxes or penalties
          and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably
          incurred or suffered by the Executive in connection
          therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to
          the Executive even if he has ceased to be a director,
          member, employee or agent of the Companies or other
          entity and shall inure to the benefit of the Executive's
          heirs, executors and administrators. The Companies shall
          advance to the Executive all reasonable costs and
          expenses incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding
          within 20 days after receipt by a Company of a written
          request for such advance. Such request shall include an
          undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount of such
          advance if it shall ultimately be determined that he is
          not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and
          expenses.

     (b)  Neither the failure of a Company (including its board of
          directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to
          have made a determination prior to the commencement of
          any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by
          the Executive under Section 9(a) that indemnification of
          the Executive is proper because he has met the applicable
          standard of conduct, nor a determination by a Company
          (including its board of directors, independent legal
          counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met
          such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
          presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable
          standard of conduct.

     (c)  The Companies agree to continue and maintain a directors'
          and officers' liability insurance policy covering the
          Executive to the extent either Company provides such
          coverage for its other executive officers.

     10.  Representation.

     The Companies represent and warrant that they are fully
authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the
performance of their obligations under this Agreement will not
violate any agreement between it and any other person, form or
organization.

     11.  Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement
between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions,
negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the
Parties with respect thereto.

     12.  Amendment or Waiver.

     No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such
amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and
an authorized officer of the Companies. No waiver by either Party
of any breach by the other Party of any condition or provision
contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other Party
shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or
provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver
must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized
officer of the Companies, as the case may be.

     13.  Severability.

     In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement
shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason,
in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement
shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and
effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     14.  Survivorship.

     The respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder
shall survive any termination of the Executive's employment to the
extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and
obligations.

     15.  Resolution of Disputes.

     Any disputes arising under or in connection with this
Agreement shall, at the election of the Executive or the Companies,
be resolved by binding arbitration, to be held in Kentucky in
accordance with the rules and procedures of the American
Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the
arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. Costs of the arbitration or litigation, including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees of both Parties, shall be borne by the
Companies, provided that if the arbitrator(s) determine that the
claims or defenses of the Executive were without any reasonable
basis, each Party shall bear his or its own costs.

     16.  Notices.

     Any notice given to a party shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been given when delivered personally or sent by
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt

               be given within six months of the Board learning of
               such act or acts or failure to act. The Executive
               shall have 10 days after the date that such written
               notice has been given to the Executive in which to
               request a hearing before the Board. Such hearing
               shall be held within 15 days of such notice to the
               Executive, provided he requests such hearing.

          (ii) In the event the Companies terminate the
               Executive's employment for Cause, he shall be
               entitled to:

               (D)  Other or additional benefits in accordance
                    with applicable plans or programs of the

          terminated without Cause, other than due to Disability or
          death, or in the event there is a Constructive
          Termination Without Cause, the Executive shall be
          entitled to:

               (i)  The Base Salary through the date of
                    termination of the Executive's employment;

               (ii) The Base Salary, at the annualized rate in
                    effect on the date of termination of the
                    Executive's employment (or in the event a
                    reduction in Base Salary is the basis for a
                    Constructive Termination Without Cause, then
                    the Base Salary in effect immediately prior to
                    such reduction), for a period of 36 months
                    following such termination; provided that at
                    the Executive's option the Companies shall pay
                    him the present value of such salary
                    continuation payments in a lump sum (using as
                    the discount rate the Applicable Federal Rate
                    for short term Treasury obligations as
                    published by the Internal Revenue Service for
                    the month in which such termination occurs);

               (vi) Continued accrual of credited service for the
                    purpose of the pension benefit provided under
                    Section 6 above for the period of 36 months or
                    his attainment of age 65, whichever shall
                    first occur;

               (vii)     Continued participation in all medical,
                         dental, hospitalization and life
                         insurance coverage and in other employee
                         benefit plans or programs in which he was
                         participating on the date of the
                         termination of his employment until the
                         earlier of:

                    (A)  The end of the period during which he is
                         receiving salary continuation payments
                         (or in respect of which a lump-sum
                         severance payment is made);

                    (B)  The date, or dates, he receives
                         equivalent coverage and benefits under
                         the plans and programs of a subsequent
                         employer (such coverages and benefits to
                         be determined on a coverage-by-coverage,
                         or benefit-by-benefit, basis); provided
                         that (x) if the Executive is precluded
                         from continuing his participation in any
                         employee benefit plan or program as
                         provided in this clause (vii) of this
                         Section 8(c), he shall be provided with
                         the after-tax economic equivalent of the
                         benefit provided under the plan or
                         program in which he is unable to
                         participate for the period specified in
                         this clause (vii) of this Section 8(c),
                         (y) the economic equivalent of any
                         benefit foregone shall be deemed to be
                         the lowest cost that would be incurred by
                         the Executive in obtaining such benefit
                         himself on an individual basis, and (z)
                         payment of such after-tax economic
                         equivalent shall be made quarterly in
                         advance; and

               (viii)    Other or additional benefits in
                         accordance with applicable plans and
                         programs of the Companies to the date of
                         termination.

          (c)  Termination of Employment Following a Change in
               Control. If following a change in Control, the
               Executive's employment is terminated without Cause
               or there is a Constructive Termination Without
               Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to the
               payments and benefits provided in Section 8(c),
               provided that the salary continuation payments
               shall be paid in a lump sum without any discount.
               Also, immediately following a Change in Control,
               all amounts, entitlements or benefits in which he
               is not yet vested shall become fully vested except
               to the extent such vesting would be inconsistent
               with the terms of the relevant plan.

          (d)  Voluntary Termination. In the event of a
               termination of employment by the Executive on his
               own initiative other than a termination due to
               death or Disability or a Constructive Termination
               without Cause, the Executive shall have the same
               entitlements as provided in Section 8(b)(ii) for a
               Termination for Cause.  A voluntary termination
               under this Section 8(d) shall be effective upon 30
               days prior notice to a Company and shall not be
               deemed a breach of this Agreement. 

          (e)  Limitation Following a Change in Control. In the
               event that the termination of the Executive's
               employment is for one of the reasons set forth in
               Section 8(d) above and the aggregate of all
               payments or benefits made or provided to the
               Executive under Section 8(c) above and under all
               other plans and programs of the Companies (the
               "Aggregate Payment") is determined to constitute a
               Parachute Payment, as such term is defined in
               Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of
               1986, as amended, notwithstanding any other
               provision of this Agreement to the contrary the
               aggregate amount of payments or benefits paid by
               the Companies to the Executive pursuant to this
               Agreement, the amount to be paid to the Executive
               and the time of payment pursuant to this Section
               8(e) shall be adjusted so as to make such payments
               fully deductible by a Company. If the parties are
               unable to agree upon an Auditor to calculate such
               an adjustment, then the Executive and Companies
               shall each select one accounting firm and those two
               firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to
               serve as the Auditor.

          (f)  No Mitigation - No Offset. In the event of any
               termination of employment under this Section 8, the
               Executive shall be under no obligation to seek
               other employment and there shall be no offset
               against amounts due the Executive under this
               Agreement on account of any remuneration
               attributable to any subsequent employment that he
               may obtain except as specifically provided in this
               Section 8.

          (h)  Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this
               Section 8 are in the nature of severance payments
               considered to be reasonable by the Companies and
               are not in the nature of a penalty.

     9.   Indemnification.

     (a)  The Companies agree that if the Executive is made a
          party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any
          action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
          administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding"), by
          reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer
          or employee of the Companies or is or was serving at the
          request of the Companies as a director, officer, member,
          employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
          joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including
          service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether
          or not the basis of such Proceeding is the Executive's
          alleged action in an official capacity while serving as
          a director, officer, member, employee or agent, the
          Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
          Companies to the fullest extent permitted or authorized
          by the Companies' certificates of incorporation or bylaws
          or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Kentucky,
          against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including,
          without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees,
          judgments, fines, ERISA fines, excise taxes or penalties
          and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably
          incurred or suffered by the Executive in connection
          therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to
          the Executive even if he has ceased to be a director,
          member, employee or agent of the Companies or other
          entity and shall inure to the benefit of the Executive's
          heirs, executors and administrators. The Companies shall
          advance to the Executive all reasonable costs and
          expenses incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding
          within 20 days after receipt by a Company of a written
          request for such advance. Such request shall include an
          undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount of such
          advance if it shall ultimately be determined that he is
          not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and
          expenses.

     (b)  Neither the failure of a Company (including its board of
          directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to
          have made a determination prior to the commencement of
          any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by
          the Executive under Section 9(a) that indemnification of
          the Executive is proper because he has met the applicable
          standard of conduct, nor a determination by a Company
          (including its board of directors, independent legal
          counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met
          such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
          presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable
          standard of conduct.

     (c)  The Companies agree to continue and maintain a directors'
          and officers' liability insurance policy covering the
          Executive to the extent either Company provides such
          coverage for its other executive officers.

     10.  Representation.

     The Companies represent and warrant that they are fully
authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the
performance of their obligations under this Agreement will not
violate any agreement between it and any other person, form or
organization.

     11.  Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement
between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions,
negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the
Parties with respect thereto.

     12.  Amendment or Waiver.

     No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such
amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and
an authorized officer of the Companies. No waiver by either Party
of any breach by the other Party of any condition or provision
contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other Party
shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or
provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver
must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized
officer of the Companies, as the case may be.

     13.  Severability.

     In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement
shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason,
in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement
shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and
effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     14.  Survivorship.

     The respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder
shall survive any termination of the Executive's employment to the

                    which are materially inconsistent with his
                    duties or which materially impair the
                    Executive's ability to function as the President
                    and as a Director of the Companies or any other
                    office to which he may be elected or appointed:

          in carrying out his duties under this Agreement, shall
          report to the Chief Executive Officer.

     (b)  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, nothing
          shall preclude the Executive from (i) serving on the boards
          of directors of a reasonable number of other corporations
          (except Executive will not serve on the board of any other
          financial institution) or the boards of a reasonable number
          of trade associations and/or charitable organizations, (ii)
          engaging in charitable activities and community affairs,
          and (iii) managing his personal investments and affairs,
          provided that such activities do not materially interfere
          with the proper performance of his duties and
          responsibilities as the Companies' Executive Vice President
          or any other office to which he may be elected or
          appointed.

     (d)  Executive agrees that he will, consistent with Bank policy,

          receiving benefits hereunder from investing in any company
          that is a customer of the Companies.

5.   Base Salary. The Executive shall be paid an annualized Base

pursuant to any other provision of this Employment Agreement.  For
purposes of this paragraph 5,  "Base Salary" shall include an annual
bonus calculated by taking the highest bonus of the three years
preceding the year of termination.

6.   Employee Benefit Programs.  During the Term of Employment, the

authorized to incur reasonable expenses in carrying out his duties

connection with carrying out the business of the Companies, subject
to documentation in accordance with the Companies' policy.



8.   Termination of Employment.

     (a)  Termination by the Company for Cause. In the event the
          Companies terminate the Executive's employment for Cause,
          he shall be entitled to:

          (iv) Other or additional benefits in accordance with
               applicable plans or programs of the Companies to the
               date of termination.

     (b)  Termination or Constructive Termination Without Cause. In
          the event the Executive's employment is terminated without
          Cause or there is a Construction Termination Without
          Cause, other than due to Disability or death, the Executive
          shall be entitled to:

          (i)  The Base Salary through the date of termination of
               the Executive's employment;

          (ii) The Base Salary, at the annualized rate in effect on
               the date of termination of the Executive's employment
               for the unexpired term of this Employment Agreement
               following such termination; provided that at the
               Executive's option the Companies shall pay him the
               present value of such salary continuation payments in
               a lump sum (using as the discount rate the Applicable
               Federal Rate for short term Treasury obligations as
               published by the Internal Revenue Service for the
               month in which such termination occurs). For purposes

               an annual bonus calculated by taking the highest
               bonus of the three years preceding the year of
               termination;

          (iii)     The balance of any incentive awards earned (but
                    not yet paid);

          (iv) The right to exercise any stock option in full,
               whether or not such right is exercisable pursuant to
               the terms of the grant.

          (v)  Any pension benefit that may become due pursuant to
               Section 6 above;

          (vi) Continued accrual of credited service for the purpose
               of the pension benefit provided under Section 6 above
               through December 31, 1998;

          (vii)     Continued participation in all medical, dental,

                    in other employee benefit plans or programs in
                    which he was participating on the date of the
                    termination of his employment until the earlier
                    of:

               (A)  The end of the period during which he is
                    receiving salary continuation payments (or in
                    respect of which a lump-sum severance payment is
                    made);

               (B)  The date, or dates, he receives equivalent
                    coverage and benefits under the plans and
                    programs of a subsequent employer (such
                    coverages and benefits to be determined on a
                    coverage-by-coverage, or benefit-by-benefit,
                    basis); provided that (x) if the Executive is
                    precluded from continuing his participation in
                    any employee benefit plan or program as provided
                    in this clause (vii) of this Section 8(c), he
                    shall be provided with the after-tax economic
                    equivalent of the benefit provided under the
                    plan or program in which he is unable to
                    participate for the period specified in this
                    clause (vii) of this Section 8(c), (y) the
                    economic equivalent of any benefit foregone
                    shall be deemed to be the lowest cost that would
                    be incurred by the Executive in obtaining such
                    benefit himself on an individual basis, and (z)
                    payment of such after-tax economic equivalent
                    shall be made quarterly in advance; and

          (viii)    Immediate vesting of the Companies' contribution
                    to his Employee Stock Option Plan

          (ix) Other or additional benefits in accordance with
               applicable plans and programs of the Companies to the
               date of termination.

     (c)  Termination of Employment Following a Change in Control.
          If following a change in Control, the Executive's
          employment is terminated without Cause or there is a
          Constructive Termination Without Cause, the Executive shall
          be entitled to the payments and benefits provided in
          Section 8(b), provided that the salary continuation
          payments shall be paid in a lump sum without any discount.
          Also, immediately following a Change in Control, all
          amounts, entitlements or benefits in which he is not yet
          vested shall become fully vested except to the extent such
          vesting would be inconsistent with the terms of the
          relevant plan. In addition, if the Executive has completed
          less than fifteen (15) years of service at the time of such
          termination, the Executive will be entitled to a
          supplemental pension benefit paid directly by the Companies
          (and not as a part of the Pension Plan of the Companies)
          equal to the benefit otherwise payable under said Pension
          Plan based upon the completion of fifteen (15) years of
          service, minus any amounts payable pursuant to the said
          Pension Plan. This supplemental pension benefit is an
          unfunded liability of the Companies, its successors and
          assigns, and not part of any established Plan of the
          Companies.

     (d)  Voluntary Termination. In the event of a termination of
          employment by the Executive on his own initiative other
          than a termination due to death or Disability or a
          Constructive Termination without Cause, the Executive shall
          have the same entitlements as provided in Section 8(a) for
          a Termination for Cause. 

     (e)  Limitation Following a Change in Control. In the event that
          the termination of the Executive's employment is for one
          of the reasons set forth in Section 8(c) above and the
          aggregate of all payments or benefits made or provided to
          the Executive under Section 8(b) above and under all other
          plans and programs of the Companies (the "Aggregate
          Payment") is determined to constitute a Parachute Payment,
          as such term is defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the
          Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, notwithstanding
          any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary the
          aggregate amount of payments or benefits paid by the
          Companies to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement, the
          amount to be paid to the Executive and the time of payment
          pursuant to this Section 8(e) shall be adjusted so as to
          make such payments fully deductible by a Company. If the
          parties are unable to agree upon an Auditor to calculate
          such an adjustment, then the Executive and Companies shall
          each select one accounting firm and those two firms shall
          jointly select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor.

     (g)  No Mitigation - No Offset. In the event of any termination
          of employment under this Section 8, the Executive shall be
          under no obligation to seek other employment and there
          shall be no offset against amounts due the Executive under
          this Agreement on account of any remuneration attributable
          to any subsequent employment that he may obtain except as
          specifically provided in this Section 8.

     (h)  Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 8
          are in the nature of severance payments considered to be
          reasonable by the Companies and are not in the nature of
          a penalty.

9.   Indemnification.

     (a)  The Companies agree that if the Executive is made a party,
          or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit
          or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
          investigative (a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that
          he is or was a director, officer or employee of the
          Companies or is or was serving at the request of the
          Companies as a director, officer, member, employee or agent
          of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
          or other enterprise, including service with respect to
          employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such
          Proceeding is the Executive's alleged action in an official
          capacity while serving as a director, officer, member,
          employee or agent, the Executive shall be indemnified and
          held harmless by the Companies to the fullest extent
          permitted or authorized by the Companies' certificates of
          incorporation or bylaws or, if greater, by the laws of the
          State of Kentucky, against all cost, expense, liability and
          loss (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's
          fees, judgments, fines, ERISA fines, excise taxes or
          penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement)
          reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in
          connection therewith, and such indemnification shall
          continue as to the Executive even if he has ceased to be
          a director, member, employee or agent of the Companies or
          other entity and shall inure to the benefit of the
          Executive's heirs, executors and administrators. The
          Companies shall advance to the Executive all reasonable
          costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with a
          Proceeding within 20 days after receipt by a Company of a
          written request for such advance. Such request shall
          include an undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount
          of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined that
          he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and
          expenses.

     (b)  Neither the failure of a Company (including its board of
          directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to
          have made a determination prior to the commencement of any
          proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by the
          Executive under Section 10(a) that indemnification of the
          Executive is proper because he has met the applicable
          standard of conduct, nor a determination by a Company
          (including its board of directors, independent legal
          counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met
          such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
          presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable
          standard of conduct.

     (c)  The Companies agree to continue and maintain a directors'
          and officers' liability insurance policy covering the
          Executive to the extent either Company provides such
          coverage for its other executive officers.

10.  Representation.  The Companies represent and warrant that they
are fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and
that the performance of their obligations under this Agreement will
not violate any agreement between it and any other person, form or
organization.

11.  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire
understanding and agreement between the Parties concerning the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements,
understandings, discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether
written or oral, between the Parties with respect thereto.

12.  Amendment or Waiver.  No provision in this Agreement may be
amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by
the Executive and an authorized officer of the Companies. No waiver
by either Party of any breach by the other Party of any condition or
provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other
Party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition
or provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver
must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized
officer of the Companies, as the case may be.

13.  Severability.  In the event that any provision or portion of
this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for
any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this
Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force
and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

14.  Survivorship.  The respective rights and obligations of the
Parties hereunder shall survive any termination of the Executive's
employment to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of
such rights and obligations.

15.  Resolution of Disputes.  Any disputes arising under or in
connection with this Agreement shall, at the election of the
Executive or the Companies, be resolved by binding arbitration, to be
held in Kentucky in accordance with the rules and procedures of the
American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by
the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. Costs of the arbitration or litigation, including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees of both Parties, shall be borne by the
Companies, provided that if the arbitrator(s) determine that the
claims or defenses of the Executive were without any reasonable
basis, each Party shall bear his or its own costs.

16.  Notices.  Any notice given to a Party shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been given when delivered personally or sent
by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, duly addressed to the Party concerned at the address
indicated below or to such changed address as such Party may
subsequently give such notice of:

                    Vice President and Chief Executive Officer or
                    any other office to which he may be elected or

               Section 6 above;

          (vi) Continued accrual of credited service for the purpose
               of the pension benefit provided under Section 6 above

               (A)  The end of the period during which he is
                    receiving salary continuation payments (or in
                    respect of which a lump-sum severance payment is
                    made);

               (B)  The date, or dates, he receives equivalent
                    coverage and benefits under the plans and

                    coverages and benefits to be determined on a
                    coverage-by-coverage, or benefit-by-benefit,
                    basis); provided that (x) if the Executive is
                    precluded from continuing his participation in
                    any employee benefit plan or program as provided
                    in this clause (vii) of this Section 8(b), he
                    shall be provided with the after-tax economic
                    equivalent of the benefit provided under the
                    plan or program in which he is unable to
                    participate for the period specified in this
                    clause (vii) of this Section 8(b), (y) the
                    economic equivalent of any benefit foregone
                    shall be deemed to be the lowest cost that would
                    be incurred by the Executive in obtaining such
                    benefit himself on an individual basis, and (z)
                    payment of such after-tax economic equivalent
                    shall be made quarterly in advance; and

          (viii)    Immediate vesting of the Companies' contribution
                    to his Employee Stock Option Plan:

          (ix) Other or additional benefits in accordance with
               applicable plans and programs of the Companies to the
               date of termination.

     (c)  Termination of Employment Following a Change in Control.
          If following a Change in Control, the Executive's
          employment is terminated without Cause or there is a
          Constructive Termination Without Cause, the Executive shall
          be entitled to the payments and benefits provided in
          Section 8(b), provided that the salary continuation
          payments shall be paid in a lump sum without any discount.
          Also, immediately following a Change in Control, all
          amounts, entitlements or benefits in which he is not yet
          vested shall become fully vested.  In addition, if the
          Executive has completed less than fifteen (15) years of
          service at the time of such termination, the Executive will
          be entitled to a supplemental pension benefit paid directly
          by the Companies (and not as a part of the Pension Plan of
          the Companies) equal to the benefit otherwise payable under
          said Pension Plan based upon the completion of fifteen (15)
          years of service, minus any amounts payable pursuant to the
          said Pension Plan. This supplemental pension benefit is an
          unfunded liability of the Companies, the successors and
          assigns, and not part of any established Plan of the
          Companies.  In addition, if Executive continues in the
          employ of the Companies for a period of two years following
          the effective date of the Change of Control, he may then
          voluntarily terminate his employment and in such a case
          would receive, in addition to the benefits provided for
          elsewhere herein, a sum equal to three times Base Salary. 
          A voluntary termination under this Section 8(c) shall be
          effective upon 30 days prior notice to the Companies and
          shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement. For
          purposes of this Section 8(c) "Base Salary" shall include
          an annual bonus calculated by taking the highest bonus of
          the three years preceding the year of termination;

     (d)  Voluntary  Termination. In the event of a termination of
          employment by the Executive on his own initiative other
          than a termination due to death or Disability or a
          Constructive Termination without Cause, the Executive shall
          have the same entitlements as provided in Section 8(a) for
          a Termination for Cause.

     (e)  Limitation  Following a Change in Control. In the event
          that the termination of the Executive's employment is for
          one of the reasons set forth in Section 8(c) above and the
          aggregate of all payments or benefits made or provided to
          the Executive under such Section above and under all other
          plans and programs of the Companies (the "Aggregate
          Payment") is determined to constitute a Parachute Payment,
          as such term is defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the
          Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, notwithstanding
          any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary the
          aggregate amount of payments or benefits paid by the
          Companies to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement, the
          amount to be paid to the Executive and the time of payment
          pursuant to this Section 8(e) shall be adjusted so as to
          make such payments fully deductible by the Companies. If
          the parties are unable to agree upon an Auditor to
          calculate such an adjustment, then the Executive and
          Companies shall each select one accounting firm and those
          two firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to serve
          as the Auditor.

     (g)  Company Car. Upon termination pursuant to Section 8(b) or
          (c), the Executive will have the option of purchasing his
          Company car for the value of such car on the books of the
          Company at the time of termination.

     (h)  No Mitigation - No Offset. In the event of any termination
          of employment under this Section 8, the Executive shall be
          under no obligation to seek other employment and there
          shall be no offset against amounts due the Executive under
          this Agreement on account of any remuneration attributable
          to any subsequent employment that he may obtain except as
          specifically provided in this Section 8.

     (i)  Nature  of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 8
          are in the nature of severance payments considered to be
          reasonable by the Companies and are not in the nature of
          a penalty.



     9.   Indemnification.

     (a)  The Companies agree that if the Executive is made a party,
          or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit
          or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
          investigative (a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that
          he is or was a director, officer or employee of the
          Companies or is or was serving at the request of the
          Companies as a director, officer, member, employee or agent
          of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
          or other enterprise, including service with respect to
          employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such
          Proceeding is the Executive's alleged action in an official
          capacity while serving as a director, officer, member,
          employee or agent, the Executive shall be indemnified and
          held harmless by the Companies to the fullest extent
          permitted or authorized by the Companies' certificates of
          incorporation or bylaws or, if greater, by the laws of the
          State of Kentucky, against all cost, expense, liability and
          loss (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's
          fees, judgments, fines, ERISA fines, excise taxes or
          penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement)
          reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in
          connection therewith, and such indemnification shall
          continue as to the Executive even if he has ceased to be
          a director, member, employee or agent of the Companies or
          other entity and shall inure to the benefit of the
          Executive's heirs, executors and administrators. The
          Companies shall advance to the Executive all reasonable
          costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with a
          Proceeding within 20 days after receipt by the Companies
          of a written request for such advance. Such request shall
          include an undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount
          of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined that
          he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and
          expenses.

     (b)  Neither the failure of the Companies (including its board
          of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders)
          to have made a determination prior to the commencement of
          any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by the
          Executive under Section 10(a) that indemnification of the
          Executive is proper because he has met the applicable
          standard of conduct, nor a determination by the Companies
          (including its board of directors, independent legal
          counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met
          such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a
          presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable
          standard of conduct.

     (c)  The Companies agree to continue and maintain a directors'
          and officers' liability insurance policy covering the
          Executive to the extent either Company provides such
          coverage for its other executive officers.

     10.  Representation.

     The Companies represent and warrant that they are fully
authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the
performance of their obligations under this Agreement will not
violate any agreement between it and any other person, form or
organization.

     11.  Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement
between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions,
negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the
Parties with respect thereto.





     12.  Amendment or Waiver.

     No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such
amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an
authorized officer of the Companies. No waiver by either Party of any
breach by the other Party of any condition or provision contained in
this Agreement to be performed by such other Party shall be deemed a
waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same
or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and
signed by the Executive or an authorized officer of the Companies, as
the case may be.

     13.  Severability.

     In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement
shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in
whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be
unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the
fullest extent permitted by law.

     14.  Survivorship.

     The respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder
shall survive any termination of the Executive's employment to the
extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and
obligations.

     15.  Resolution of Disputes.

     Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement
shall, at the election of the Executive or the Companies, be resolved
by binding arbitration, to be held in Kentucky in accordance with the
rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association.
Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Costs of the arbitration or
litigation, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees of both
Parties, shall be borne by the Companies, provided that if the
arbitrator(s) determine that the claims or defenses of the Executive
were without any reasonable basis, each Party shall bear his or its
own costs.

     16.  Notices.

     Any notice given to a party shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been given when delivered personally or sent by
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, duly addressed to the Party concerned at the address
indicated below or to such changed address as such Party may
subsequently give such notice of:

                    Executive Officer or any other office to which he

     (a)  During the term of Employment, the Executive shall continue to
          be employed as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
          Officer of the Companies with duties commensurate with that
          position. The Executive, in carrying out his duties under this

          associations and/or charitable organizations, (ii) engaging in
          charitable activities and community affairs, and (iii) managing
          his personal investments and affairs, provided that such

          or any other office to which he may be elected or appointed.

     The Executive is authorized to incur reasonable expenses in

incurred in connection with carrying out the business of the
Companies, subject to documentation in accordance with the Companies'

          the Executive's employment for Cause, he shall be entitled to:

          (i)  The Base Salary through the date of the termination of
               his employment for Cause;

          (ii) Any incentive awards earned (but not yet paid);

          (iii)     Any pension benefit that may become due pursuant to
                    Section 6 above, determined as of the date of such
                    termination;

          (iv) Other or additional benefits in accordance with
               applicable plans or programs of the Companies to the date
               of termination.

     (b)  Termination Without Cause on or before December 31, 2000.
          If, on or before December 31, 2000, the Executive's
          employment is terminated without Cause other than due to
          Disability or death, or there is a Constructive Termination
          without Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to:

          (i)  The Base Salary through the date of termination of the
               Executive's employment;

          (ii) The Base Salary, at the annualized rate in effect on the
               date of termination of the Executive's employment for the
               unexpired term of this Employment Agreement following
               such termination, paid in installments in accordance with
               the regular pay practices of the Companies; provided that
               at the Executive's option the Companies shall pay him the
               present value of such salary continuation payments in a
               lump sum (using as the discount rate the Applicable
               Federal Rate for short term Treasury obligations as
               published by the Internal Revenue Service for the month
               in which such termination occurs). For purposes of this
               subsection (ii) "Base Salary" shall include an annual
               bonus calculated by taking the highest bonus of the three
               years preceding the year of termination;

          (iii)     The balance of any incentive awards earned (but not
                    yet paid);

          (iv) The right to exercise any stock option in full, whether
               or not such right is exercisable pursuant to the terms of
               the grant.

          (v)  Any pension benefit that may become due pursuant to
               Section 6 above;

          (vi) Continued accrual of credited service for the purpose of
               the pension benefit provided under Section 6 above until
               his attainment of age 55;

          (vii)     Continued participation in all medical, dental,
                    hospitalization and life insurance coverage and in
                    other employee benefit plans or programs in which
                    he was participating on the date of the termination
                    of his employment until the earlier of:


               (A)  The end of the period during which he is receiving
                    salary continuation payments (or in respect of
                    which a lump-sum severance payment is made);

               (B)  The date, or dates, he receives equivalent coverage
                    and benefits under the plans and programs of a
                    subsequent employer (such coverages and benefits to
                    be determined on a coverage-by-coverage, or
                    benefit-by-benefit, basis); provided that (x) if
                    the Executive is precluded from continuing his
                    participation in any employee benefit plan or
                    program as provided in this clause (vii) of this
                    Section 8(b), he shall be provided with the
                    after-tax economic equivalent of the benefit
                    provided under the plan or program in which he is
                    unable to participate for the period specified in
                    this clause (vii) of this Section 8(b), (y) the
                    economic equivalent of any benefit foregone shall
                    be deemed to be the lowest cost that would be
                    incurred by the Executive in obtaining such benefit
                    himself on an individual basis, and (z) payment of
                    such after-tax economic equivalent shall be made
                    quarterly in advance; and

          (viii)    Immediate vesting of the Companies' contribution to
                    his Employee Stock Option Plan

          (ix) Other or additional benefits in accordance with
               applicable plans and programs of the Companies to the
               date of termination.

     (c)  Termination  Without Cause after December 31, 2000. If, after
          December 31, 2000, the Executive's employment is terminated
          without Cause other than due to Disability or death, or there
          is a Constructive Termination without Cause, the Executive
          shall be entitled to:

          (i)  The Base Salary through the date of termination of the
               Executive's employment;

          (ii) The Base Salary, at the annualized rate in effect on the
               date of termination of the Executive's employment for the
               unexpired term of this Employment Agreement following
               such termination, paid in installments in accordance with
               the regular pay practices of the Companies; provided that
               at the Executive's option the Companies shall pay him the
               present value of such salary continuation payments in a
               lump sum (using as the discount rate the Applicable
               Federal Rate for short term Treasury obligations as
               published by the Internal Revenue Service for the month
               in which such termination occurs). For purposes of this
               subsection (ii) "Base Salary" shall include an annual
               bonus calculated by taking the highest bonus of the three
               years preceding the year of termination;

          (iii)     The balance of any incentive awards earned (but not
                    yet paid);

          (iv) The right to exercise any stock option in full, whether
               or not such right is exercisable pursuant to the terms of
               the grant.

          (v)  Any pension benefit that may become due pursuant to
               Section 6 above;

          (vi) Continued participation in all medical, dental,
               hospitalization and life insurance coverage and in other
               employee benefit plans or programs in which he was
               participating on the date of the termination of his
               employment until the earlier of:

               (A)  The end of the period during which he is receiving
                    salary continuation payments (or in respect of
                    which a lump-sum severance payment is made);

               (B)  The date, or dates, he receives equivalent coverage
                    and benefits under the plans and programs of a
                    subsequent employer (such coverages and benefits to
                    be determined on a coverage-by-coverage, or
                    benefit-by-benefit, basis); provided that (x) if
                    the Executive is precluded from continuing his
                    participation in any employee benefit plan or
                    program as provided in this clause (vii) of this
                    Section 8(c), he shall be provided with the
                    after-tax economic equivalent of the benefit
                    provided under the plan or program in which he is
                    unable to participate for the period specified in
                    this clause (vii) of this Section 8(c), (y) the
                    economic equivalent of any benefit foregone shall
                    be deemed to be the lowest cost that would be
                    incurred by the Executive in obtaining such benefit
                    himself on an individual basis, and (z) payment of
                    such after-tax economic equivalent shall be made
                    quarterly in advance; and

          (vii)     Immediate vesting of the Companies' contribution to
                    his Employee Stock Option Plan

          (viii)    Other or additional benefits in accordance with
                    applicable plans and programs of the Companies to
                    the date of termination.

     (d)  Termination  of Employment Following a Change in Control. If
          following a Change in Control, the Executive's employment is
          terminated without Cause or there is a Constructive Termination
          Without Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to the payments
          and benefits provided in Section 8(b) or 8(c) as appropriate,
          provided that the salary continuation payments shall be paid in
          a lump sum without any discount. Also, immediately following a
          Change in Control, all amounts, entitlements or benefits in
          which he is not yet vested shall become fully vested.  In
          addition, if the Executive has completed less than fifteen (15)
          years of service at the time of such termination, the Executive
          will be entitled to a supplemental pension benefit paid
          directly by the Companies (and not as a part of the Pension
          Plan of the Companies) equal to the benefit otherwise payable
          under said Pension Plan based upon the completion of fifteen
          (15) years of service, minus any amounts payable pursuant to
          the said Pension Plan. This supplemental pension benefit is an
          unfunded liability of the Companies, the successors and
          assigns, and not part of any established Plan of the Companies. 
          In addition, if Executive continues in the employ of the
          Companies for a period of two years following the effective
          date of the Change of Control, he may then voluntarily
          terminate his employment and in such a case would receive, in
          addition to the benefits provided for elsewhere herein, a sum
          equal to three times Base Salary.  A voluntary termination
          under this Section 8(d) shall be effective upon 30 days prior
          notice to the Companies and shall not be deemed a breach of
          this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 8(d) "Base Salary"
          shall include an annual bonus calculated by taking the highest
          bonus of the three years preceding the year of termination;

     (e)  Voluntary  Termination. In the event of a termination of
          employment by the Executive on his own initiative other than a
          termination due to death or Disability or a Constructive
          Termination without Cause, the Executive shall have the same
          entitlements as provided in Section 8(a) for a Termination for
          Cause.

     (f)  Limitation  Following a Change in Control. In the event that
          the termination of the Executive's employment is for one of the
          reasons set forth in Section 8(b) or 8(c) above and the
          aggregate of all payments or benefits made or provided to the
          Executive under such Section above and under all other plans
          and programs of the Companies (the "Aggregate Payment") is
          determined to constitute a Parachute Payment, as such term is
          defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of
          1986, as amended, notwithstanding any other provision of this
          Agreement to the contrary the aggregate amount of payments or
          benefits paid by the Companies to the Executive pursuant to
          this Agreement, the amount to be paid to the Executive and the
          time of payment pursuant to this Section 8(f) shall be adjusted
          so as to make such payments fully deductible by the Companies.
          If the Parties are unable to agree upon an Auditor to calculate
          such an adjustment, then the Executive and Companies shall each
          select one accounting firm and those two firms shall jointly
          select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor.

     (g)  Upon termination pursuant to Section 8(b), (c) or (d), the
          Executive will have the option of purchasing his Company car
          for the value of such car on the books of the Company at the
          time of termination, adjusted for value of the Executive's cash
          contribution to the purchase of the car.

     (h)  No  Mitigation - No Offset. In the event of any termination of
          employment under this Section 8, the Executive shall be under
          no obligation to seek other employment and there shall be no
          offset against amounts due the Executive under this Agreement
          on account of any remuneration attributable to any subsequent
          employment that he may obtain except as specifically provided
          in this Section 8.

     (i)  Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 8 are in
          the nature of severance payments considered to be reasonable by
          the Companies and are not in the nature of a penalty.

     9.   Indemnification.

     (a)  The Companies agree that if the Executive is made a party, or
          is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or
          proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
          investigative (a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he
          is or was a director, officer or employee of the Companies or
          is or was serving at the request of the Companies as a
          director, officer, member, employee or agent of another
          corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
          enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit
          plans, whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is the
          Executive's alleged action in an official capacity while
          serving as a director, officer, member, employee or agent, the
          Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
          Companies to the fullest extent permitted or authorized by the
          Companies' certificates of incorporation or bylaws or, if
          greater, by the laws of the State of Kentucky, against all
          cost, expense, liability and loss (including, without
          limitation, reasonable attorney's fees, judgments, fines, ERISA
          fines, excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid
          in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive
          in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall
          continue as to the Executive even if he has ceased to be a
          director, member, employee or agent of the Companies or other
          entity and shall inure to the benefit of the Executive's heirs,
          executors and administrators. The Companies shall advance to
          the Executive all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by him
          in connection with a Proceeding within 20 days after receipt by
          the Companies of a written request for such advance. Such
          request shall include an undertaking by the Executive to repay
          the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined
          that he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs
          and expenses.

     (b)  Neither the failure of the Companies (including its board of
          directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to have
          made a determination prior to the commencement of any
          proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by the
          Executive under Section 10(a) that indemnification of the
          Executive is proper because he has met the applicable standard
          of conduct, nor a determination by the Companies (including its
          board of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders)
          that the Executive has not met such applicable standard of
          conduct, shall create a presumption that the Executive has not
          met the applicable standard of conduct.

     (c)  The Companies agree to continue and maintain a directors' and
          officers' liability insurance policy covering the Executive to
          the extent either Company provides such coverage for its other
          executive officers.

     10.  Representation.

     The Companies represent and warrant that they are fully authorized
and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of
their obligations under this Agreement will not violate any agreement
between it and any other person, form or organization.

     11.  Entire Agreement.

     This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement
between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions,
negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the
Parties with respect thereto.

     12.  Amendment or Waiver.

     No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment
is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an authorized
officer of the Companies. No waiver by either Party of any breach by the
other Party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to
be performed by such other Party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or
dissimilar condition or provision at the same or any prior or subsequent
time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an
authorized officer of the Companies, as the case may be.

     13.  Severability.

     In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall
be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or
in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected
thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent
permitted by law.


     14.  Survivorship.

     The respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder
shall survive any termination of the Executive's employment to the
extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and
obligations.

     15.  Resolution of Disputes.

     Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement
shall, at the election of the Executive or the Companies, be resolved by
binding arbitration, to be held in Kentucky in accordance with the rules
and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon
the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. Costs of the arbitration or litigation,
including, without limitation, attorneys' fees of both Parties, shall
be borne by the Companies, provided that if the arbitrator(s)
determine that the claims or defenses of the Executive were without
any reasonable basis, each Party shall bear his or its own costs.

     16.  Notices.

     Any notice given to a party shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been given when delivered personally or sent by
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, duly addressed to the Party concerned at the address
indicated below or to such changed address as such Party may

                                OF

          FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     This discussion analyzes the results of operations and
financial condition for Mid-America Bancorp and subsidiaries (the
Company), including its primary subsidiary, Mid-America Bank of
Louisville and Trust Company (the Bank).  It should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
notes presented on pages 27 to 44. 

1995 COMPARED TO 1994

     Net income for 1995 was $8,066,000 or $.88 per share compared
with $12,612,000 or $1.38 per share for 1994.  The decrease in 1995
was attributed primarily to an increase in the provision for loan
losses from $712,000 in 1994 to $6,047,000 in 1995.  This increased
provision for loan losses related primarily to non-performing loans
to a Louisville-based real estate development firm.  For 1995,
return on average total assets (ROA) was .69% and return on average
equity (ROE) was 6.26%, compared with 1994 when the ROA was 1.11%
and ROE was 10.36%.  The discussion that follows explains in more
detail the factors affecting 1995 operating results and changes in
financial condition.


NET INTEREST INCOME

     Net interest income is the difference between interest income
on earning assets and the interest expense incurred for funding
sources used to support earning assets.  Earning assets include
primarily loans and securities.  The primary sources used to fund
these assets include deposits, purchased and borrowed funds, and
capital.  The net interest spread is the difference between the
average rate of interest earned on earning assets on a tax
equivalent basis and the average rate of interest expensed on
interest bearing liabilities.  The net yield on earning assets is
net interest income on a tax equivalent basis as a percent of the
average balance of earning assets.  Detailed information on the
average balances of earning assets and funding sources, interest
rates, and the net yield on earning assets is shown in the table on
page 20.

     In 1995, net interest income on a tax equivalent basis
increased $3,358,000 to $49,413,000.  Net interest income was
favorably impacted by increases in average earning assets and
higher average interest rates.  The  average yield on earning
assets increased from 7.60% in 1994 to 8.45% in 1995, with a
similar increase in the average rate on interest bearing
liabilities from 3.94% in 1994 to 4.84% in 1995.  The shift to
higher interest rates, interacting with the timing of repricing and
the shift in composition of earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities during the year, resulted in a net interest spread of
3.61% in 1995 compared to 3.66% in 1994.  The net yield on earning
assets increased in 1995 to 4.54% compared to 4.34% in 1994.  The
average prime rate in 1995 was 8.83% compared to 7.14% in 1994.

     Average earning assets increased approximately $28 million or
2.7% in 1995 to $1,087,347,000.  The increase was centered in
loans, which increased approximately $29 million or 4.2% to
$707,898,000.  Also there was a slight increase in the average
securities portfolio of approximately $6 million.  Changes in the
composition and amounts of earning assets arose in part from
management's response to the interest rate environment in 1995,
where such changes were necessary to maintain a proper match among
assets and liabilities, while increasing the yield on investable
funds.

     The growth in average earning assets was supported by a $6.6
million increase in average interest bearing deposits and increases
in non-interest bearing sources of funds, primarily money orders
and similar payment instruments outstanding and demand deposits, of
$27.9 million.  Average advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank
decreased approximately $4 million as no new advances were taken in
1995.  Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, a short-term
higher yielding collateralized instrument used by customers with
large amounts of investable funds, decreased 2% in 1995, while
continuing to be a significant funding source.  Non-interest
bearing deposits, other liabilities and capital were 27% of earning
assets in 1995 compared to 24.5% in 1994.

     The changes in interest income attributable to volume and rate
changes are summarized in the table on page 21.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The provision for loan losses was $6,047,000 in 1995 compared
to $712,000 for 1994.  During 1995, the Company had net charge-offs
of $3,774,000, compared to $245,000 in 1994, and an increase in the
level of non-performing loans.  During the third quarter of 1995,
the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $5.7 million
attributed primarily to losses associated with loans totaling
approximately $14.8 million to a Louisville-based real estate
development firm.  These loans were classified by management as
impaired and non-accrual and adjusted to fair value based on
appraisals of the underlying real estate collateral.  During 1995,
charge-offs related to these loans aggregated $2.9 million, and the
allowance for loan losses related to the remaining carrying value
of these impaired loans of $11.9 million, was approximately $1.4
million at December 31, 1995.
     
     The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level
sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses in the loan
portfolio, considering non-performing loans and overall economic
conditions.  In evaluating the allowance for loan losses,
management considers its evaluation of the risk characteristics of
the loan portfolio, including the impact of current economic
conditions on the borrowers' ability to repay, past collection
experience and such other factors which, in management's judgement,
deserve current recognition.  At December 31, 1995, the allowance
for loan losses was 1.25% of loans outstanding compared to 1.01% at
the end of 1994.

</TABLE>


     Excluding the problem real estate development loans and their
related allowance for loan losses mentioned above, non-performing
loans were $3.2 million and the allowance for loan losses was 1.08%
of loans at December 31, 1995, with such remaining amounts
reflective of the Company's historically favorable asset quality.

     During 1995, the growth in the loan portfolio was primarily in
the commercial and financial loan category.  While these loans are
generally larger, the Company limits its risk exposure for these,
as well as other categories of loans, by following conservative
underwriting practices.  The Company's aggregate net losses for
these types of loans over the last 5 years have been less than
$700,000.  Real estate construction and development loans have
remained near the same level as last year, while the underlying
loan composition in this category has become more diversified
between residential and commercial properties. 

     On January 1, 1995, the Company adopted FASB Statement No.
114, "Accounting By Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended
by FASB Statement No. 118, "Accounting By Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures."  Under these
standards, a loan is impaired when it is probable that the creditor
will be unable to collect contractual interest and principal
according to the terms of the loan agreement.  FASB Statement No.
114 requires that the value of impaired loans be measured at the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the
loan's effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market
price or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is
collateral dependent. When adopted, applying provisions of these
new accounting standards did not require an increase in the
allowance for loan losses and was otherwise not significant.  The
table on page 10 is a summary of the Company's loan loss experience
for each of the last three years.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

     Non-interest income decreased $408,000 or 3.5% in 1995 compared
to 1994.  Non-interest income includes the Company's fee related
revenues, which are the primary source of sustainable non-interest
income.  Also included are securities losses which are not recurring
in nature.   

     Money order fees were $3.9 million, an increase of $524,000 or
15.7% compared to 1994.  During 1995, the agent base of Mid-America
Money Order Company (MOC), a wholly-owned subsidiary, located
throughout the United States and Puerto Rico, increased 16% to 3306
agent sites, which contributed to the 27% increase in items issued. 
MOC provides the Company with a unique source of non-interest
income, as well as a non-interest bearing source of funds, which
averaged approximately $55 million for 1995.  MOC had net income of
$826,000 in 1995, compared to $562,000 in 1994, with such increase
attributed to increased fee revenue and increased interest income. 
In December 1995, MOC was notified that Western Union Financial
Services, Inc., would exercise its contractual option to purchase
from MOC that part of the money order business under a Program
Agreement entered into between the parties in 1992.  Under that
Agreement, many Western Union outlets signed up with MOC as
"Program Agents" to sell MOC money orders under the Western Union
label.  The purchase of this business by Western Union involves
approximately one-third of MOC's agent base and volume.  However,
the Company does not expect the profit level of MOC to decline in
the same proportion as the lost volume because this portion of the
agent base accounts for the lowest margin business in the MOC
portfolio and the sale will result in some cost reductions.  The
purchase price for this business is based on a contractual formula
for the average items sold during the 12 month period preceding the
closing of the sale, plus the remaining book value of the equipment
used by the Program Agents.  The sale is expected to close in the
first half of 1996, at which time the Company expects to realize a
pre-tax gain of between $1.4 million and $1.6 million.

     Service charges on deposits, the largest component of
non-interest income, were $4.5 million in 1995, down 1.4% from 1994. 
During 1995, the Company had an increase in the number of transaction
and savings accounts, however most of the increase related to packaged
and fixed fee accounts which generally generate lower fees per account.


     Trust income in total declined 14.5% in 1995 when compared to
1994.  Personal and corporate trust revenues increased 7.8% in 1995
as business development activities have started to yield new
customers.  The stock transfer portion of trust income declined 43%
to $281,000 in 1995 due to a declining customer base and the
absence of non-recurring special project fees that were realized in
1994.  

     In December 1995, the Company realized a loss of $636,000 on
the sale of approximately $90 million of its available for sale
securities.  The proceeds from these sales were reinvested in
securities that extended the overall life and rate of return of the
securities portfolio.  Other sales during the year added net losses
of $29,000.  There are no other individually significant components
of other non-interest income and such components did not fluctuate
significantly between 1995 and 1994.
OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES

     Other operating expenses increased $4,252,000 or 11.3% to
$41,844,000 from $37,592,000 in 1994.  This increase was primarily
associated with increases in personnel costs, expenses related to
technology improvements and maintenance, expenses related to
facilities remodeling and expansion, and expenses related to the
non-performing real estate development loans discussed previously. 

     Salaries and benefits increased $1,751,000 or 8.5% to
$22,289,000.  This increase was attributed to several factors,
including annual salary adjustments that were effective at the
beginning of the year, an increase in average full-time equivalent
employees from 639 in 1994 to 648 in 1995, and the addition of
several senior commercial and real estate lending officers and a
new chief executive officer in the fourth quarter of 1995.  A
decline in a portion of salaries and benefits in 1995 of
approximately $350,000 related to management bonuses in 1994 and
the absence of such bonuses in 1995.  Another factor influencing
salaries and benefits was an increase in health insurance costs of
approximately $405,000 due to higher claim levels.

     Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses both increased
in 1995 compared to 1994.  Occupancy expense, up $349,000 or 13.3%
in 1995, was impacted primarily by increased rent expense related
to expanded space at the Company's main office facility, and at the
money order company subsidiary's office location, and increased
amortization and maintenance expenses associated with leasehold
improvements at these locations.  Furniture and equipment expenses
increased $633,000 or 15% in 1995 compared to 1994.  The increased
furniture and equipment expenses reflect increased depreciation and
routine maintenance associated with technology equipment
additions/upgrades and additional money order equipment.

     The other expenses category of other operating expenses
includes printing and supplies, professional fees, taxes other than
income taxes, deposit insurance and other expenses.  Other
operating expenses increased $1.5 million or 14.9% in 1995 compared
to 1994.  Printing and supplies expenses increased $431,000 in 1995
compared to 1994, with approximately $300,000 of the increase
related to the money order company subsidiary forms and other
supplies usage that accompanied the sales volume increase. 
Professional fees increased $654,000 in 1995 compared to 1994, with
$500,000 of the increase attributed to legal fees associated with
the non-performing real estate development loan situation
previously discussed. Deposit insurance costs declined $794,000 in
1995 compared to 1994 as the FDIC decreased the rate of deposit
insurance during 1995.  Other expenses, which increased
approximately $1.3 million in 1995 compared to 1994, included
increased advertising and marketing expenses ($108,000), increased
donations ($336,000), money order company subsidiary collection
losses ($215,000) and expenses related to certain legal matters
($500,000).

INCOME TAXES

     The effective tax rates were 29.5%,  31.3% and 31.2%, for
1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.  The difference between the
statutory and the effective tax rates was principally attributable
to the tax-exempt status of interest income on obligations of
states and political subdivisions and certain loans.  In 1995,
these tax free sources of income were a larger proportion of the
reduced level of income before tax and caused the lower effective
tax rate.

     The Company adopted FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", prospectively in the first quarter of 1993.  The
implementation of this accounting standard was not significant to
the Company's financial condition or results of operations for 1993.


BALANCE SHEET

     Total assets were $1,313,987,000 at December 31, 1995,
compared with $1,213,990,000 one year ago.  Total assets averaged
$1,171,729,000 during 1995, an increase of approximately $35
million, or 3.1%.  Average earning assets increased approximately
$28 million or 2.7% to $1,087,347,000 in 1995.  Increased loan
volume accounted for a substantial portion of the increase in
earning assets.

SECURITIES

     The Company's securities portfolio includes obligations of the
U.S. Government and its agencies, obligations of various states and
political subdivisions, corporate debt securities, collateralized
mortgage obligations (CMOs), and equity securities which are
comprised of Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock. 
At December 31, 1995, securities available for sale totaled
$292,374,000.  These securities had unrealized holding gains during
1995 of approximately $8.1 million that resulted in an increase in
shareholders' equity of approximately $5.3 million on a net of tax
basis.  The CMOs in the portfolio, primarily Planned Amortization
Class CMOs, aggregate approximately $14 million and have an
estimated weighted average life of 3.4 years.  The cash flow for
these CMOs is relatively predictable.

     Securities classified as held to maturity were $69,326,000 at
December 31, 1995 and had net unrealized gains of $440,000.  These
securities, with a weighted average life of 0.46 years, were
purchased with the intent to hold to maturity.

     FASB Statement No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities", was adopted by the Company on January
1, 1994.  The principal effect of adoption of FASB Statement No.
115 was that debt securities classified as available for sale are
reported at fair value, with unrealized net gains or losses 
excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of
shareholders' equity, on a net of tax basis.  Securities held to
maturity are reported at amortized cost.  In December 1995, a one-time
reassessment of the Company's classification of securities 
was undertaken, as permitted by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board's special report related to implementation of FASB Statement
No. 115.  In connection with that reassessment, the Company
transferred securities held to maturity with an amortized cost of
$146,022,000 to securities available for sale in order to permit
more responsiveness to changes in interest rates and other balance
sheet management factors.  At the date of transfer, December 1,
1995, the securities held to maturity had net unrealized gains of
$2,422,000.  See Note C of the consolidated financial statements on
page 33 for gross unrealized gain and loss information.  

     The securities portfolio is utilized for pledging requirements
on certain borrowing and public and fiduciary deposits, and
provides liquidity from scheduled maturities.

     The Company's securities portfolio is considered to be high
grade.  U.S. Treasury and agency obligations were 84.7% of the
securities portfolio at December 31, 1995.  Direct obligations of
the U.S. Government are full faith and credit obligations of the
federal government.  Issues of federal agencies are also directly
guaranteed or sponsored by the United States.  Risks associated
with obligations of states and political subdivisions and corporate
securities in the portfolio are minimized through the purchase of
high quality securities and the avoidance of concentrations with
any single issuer.  At December 31, 1995, the largest percentage of
tax exempt securities held were issued by Kentucky municipalities. 
Rated state and political obligations are rated "A-" or better and
corporate investments have a "A-" rating or better.  

LOANS

     Total loans and leases, net of unearned income, were
$748,565,000 at December 31, 1995, an increase of approximately $49
million or 7% compared to December 31, 1994.  Average loans
increased approximately $29 million or 4.2%, to $707,898,000 in
1995 from $679,100,000 in 1994.

     The loan portfolio continues to be concentrated in residential
real estate mortgage loans and commercial and financial loans. 
Real estate mortgage loans were $284,074,000 at December 31, 1995,
down approximately 2.5% from a year ago.  The Company has been a
market leader in home equity financing which contributes to this
concentration in the loan portfolio.  Real estate mortgages are
principally in the metropolitan Louisville, Kentucky area.  Unlike
other regions of the United States, this market has not experienced
significant inflation or deflation in real estate prices.

     Commercial and financial loans increased $46 million to
$345,167,000, as the Company continued to emphasize lending to
businesses in the community.  The significant categories of
commercial and financial borrowers are health services, religious
organizations and bank holding companies.

     During 1995, construction and development loans increased less
than 1% to $61,398,000.  These loans are principally for the
development of residential housing tracts, office buildings and
shopping centers.  

     The Company has no foreign loans and lends principally within
its metropolitan area.

</TABLE>
In 1995, loans classified as impaired aggregated $14,328,000 and
included non-accrual loans of $14,301,000 and other loans of $27,000.





     Non-performing assets include non-accrual and restructured
loans, loans 90 days or more past due and other real estate held
for sale.  At December 31, 1995, non-performing assets totaled
$16,228,000 compared with $5,896,000 at December 31, 1994. 
Information with respect to non-performing loans and assets is
presented in the table above.

     The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when it is
determined that the collection of interest or principal is
doubtful, or generally when a default of interest or principal has
existed for 90 days or more, unless the loan is fully secured and
in the process of collection.  At December 31, 1995, there were
loans for which payments were current or less than 90 days past due
where borrowers are currently experiencing financial difficulties. 
These potential problem loans amounting to approximately $12.7   
million are subject to management review and are considered in
determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

     In 1995, the level of non-performing and restructured loans
increased to approximately $15.1 million and at the end of 1995
these loans were 2.02% of total loans.  Of these non-performing
loans, $14.3 million are classified as impaired.  Problem loans to 
the previously mentioned Louisville-based real estate development
firm of $11.9 million are included in non-accrual and impaired
loans.  The carrying value of these loans has been adjusted based
on recent (third quarter 1995) appraisals of the underlying
collateral for these loans.  The borrower is in the process of
reorganizing pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and the
Company is pursuing its right to obtain title to the properties
collateralizing these loans.  These properties are in desirable
locations and in various stages of development.  Management intends
to provide for the orderly development and marketing of these
properties in a manner designed to maximize the value thereof to
the Company.


     Management has carefully evaluated its risk, including
consideration of underlying collateral values based on current
market conditions, with respect to non-accrual loans, loans past
due 90 days or more, and potential problem loans. 

     Other real estate held for sale decreased $1,300,000 to $1.1
million at December 31, 1995.  During 1995, other real estate
acquired in settlement of loans aggregated $158,000 and sales of
other real estate aggregated $1.6 million.

DEPOSITS

     Total deposits increased approximately $52 million to
$784,957,000 on December 31, 1995, compared to $732,620,000 at
December 31, 1994.  Deposits also increased in the aggregate on an
average basis during the year, increasing approximately $10 million
compared to 1994, to $745,387,000.  Average interest bearing
deposits for the year increased slightly from $639,573,000 to
$646,180,000.  During 1995, there was a continued shift of interest
bearing demand deposits and savings deposits to higher rate time
deposits.  Average non-interest bearing deposits increased 3.8% to
$99,207,000.  Large certificates of deposit on an average basis
increased approximately $31 million to $61,970,000 at December 31,
1995, from $31,272,000 at December 31, 1994.  Included in large
certificates of deposit at December 31, 1995 and 1994 are retail
brokered certificates of deposit of approximately $10 million
issued in June 1994. 

ADVANCES FROM THE FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK 

     Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased during 1995 from
$81,504,000 to $75,109,000 as no new advances were used during
1995.  The Company has historically used this source of fixed rate
funds to match its fixed rate mortgage loan products.  

MONEY ORDERS AND SIMILAR PAYMENT INSTRUMENTS OUTSTANDING

     Money orders and similar payment instruments outstanding at
December 31, 1995 increased approximately $32 million compared to
1994.  MOC's agent base and wider acceptance of its gift
certificate program contributed to the increase in this source of
non-interest bearing funds.  On an average basis, these items
increased approximately $22 million to $55 million in 1995 compared
to 1994.  Refer to discussion of MOC under "Non-interest Income" on
page 11.  

INTEREST SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT

     Interest rate risk at any time interval may be measured in
absolute dollars by examining the gap position, or difference
between interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive
liabilities.  A positive gap, which arises when interest-sensitive
assets exceed interest-sensitive liabilities in designated time
frames, will result in a greater proportion of assets than
liabilities repricing with changes in market interest rates.  A
positive gap is normally advantageous when market rates are rising. 
A negative gap is the converse, where interest-sensitive
liabilities exceed interest-sensitive assets, and is normally
advantageous when market interest rates are declining.  Asset/
liability management strategies attempt to control exposure to
these interest rate risks.

     The Company began using interest rate swap contracts as part
of its overall asset/liability management process during 1995. 
Interest rate swaps are agreements with a counterparty to exchange
periodic interest payments that are calculated on a notional
principal amount.  At December 31, 1995, the Company had interest
rate swap contracts with notional amounts totaling $100 million,
with a weighted average maturity of 3.81 years.  Under these
contracts the Company pays the floating prime rate, 8.50% at
December 31, 1995, and receives a weighted average fixed rate of
8.728%.

     The interest sensitivity of the Company's earning assets and
interest bearing liabilities at December 31, 1995 is shown on the
table on page 19. This gap table reflects the rate sensitive
position at the end of the year and is not necessarily reflective
of positions throughout the year.  The carrying amount of interest
sensitive assets and liabilities and the notional amounts of
interest rate swaps are presented in the periods in which they next
reprice to market rates or mature.  Variable rate assets and
liabilities are distributed based on the repricing frequency of the
instrument.  In managing interest sensitivity, the Company measures
non-maturity deposits based on historical deposit relationships to
changes in market interest rates.  Accordingly, the gap table
presents 30% of interest bearing demand and 20% of savings deposits
in the 0 to 90 Days category with the remainder in the over 5 Years
category.  The cumulative positive gap position in the less than
one year category of 6.76% at December 31, 1995 has been reduced
from 15.92% at the end of last year as management has used on and
off-balance-sheet management methods to reduce the Company's
exposure to interest rate changes.

     Gap alone does not accurately measure the magnitude of change
in net interest income, since changes in interest rates do not
occur simultaneously or equally to all assets or liabilities in a
category.  Management supplements traditional gap analyses with
computer simulation modeling to estimate the financial impact of
rate changes.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     Shareholders' equity increased $7,898,000 to $132,950,000 at
December 31, 1995.  Average shareholders' equity increased
$7,083,000 to $128,788,000 and was 10.99% of average total assets
for 1995, which compares favorably to the Company's peer group.
The Company's primary source of capital is net income, net of
dividends paid.  The Company also benefitted from the appreciation
of its available for sale securities, which contributed $5,250,000
to the increase in shareholders' equity during 1995.

     Regulators monitor capital adequacy under risk based capital
guidelines which place assets and certain off-balance-sheet
activities in various categories of risk with varying weights. 
Also, a minimum leverage ratio, based on shareholders' equity as a
percentage of total assets, is required.  As of December 31, 1995
and 1994, the Company's capital ratios and the required minimums
are as follows:

LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT

     Liquidity management represents the Company's ability to
generate cash or otherwise obtain funds at a reasonable price to
satisfy commitments to borrowers as well as the demands of
depositors.  Funds are available from a number of sources,
including the securities portfolio, the core deposit base and the
ability to attract large deposits and repurchase agreements. The
Company's temporary investments, which include federal funds sold,
securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities
maturing within one year, are approximately 18% of total assets. 
Temporary investments are approximately 82% of volatile
liabilities, which consist of federal funds purchased, securities
sold under agreements to repurchase and large certificates of
deposit.  The Company's volatile liability dependence ratio, a
measure of volatile liabilities, net of temporary investments,
supporting  loans and the securities portfolio has averaged
approximately 2.5% during 1995.  In the opinion of management,
incremental funding sources are sufficient to meet known or
reasonably anticipated funding requirements.  

     During 1995, financing and operating activities adequately
supported the investing activities of the Company.  Investing
activities, primarily loans to customers and securities
transactions have been funded by increased deposits and securities
sold under agreements to repurchase and operating activities,
including net income and increases in money orders and similar
payment instruments outstanding.

     The liquidity of the holding company is impacted primarily by
the ability of its principal subsidiary, the Bank, to pay
dividends.  During 1995, the Bank paid $6.0 million in dividends to
the parent holding company.  Certain regulatory restrictions limit
the amount of dividends the Bank may pay.  Additional information
about these restrictions is in Note L to the consolidated financial
statements on page 39.


IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,"
which is effective for the Company in 1996.  The Statement
introduces the use of a new fair value based method of accounting
for stock-based compensation arrangements, but permits companies to
retain the current intrinsic value based method prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees."  Under the fair value based method of
accounting, compensation expense would be recognized for stock
options and other equity instruments granted to employees based
upon fair value at the grant date.  The intrinsic value based
method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25 recognizes compensation
cost for stock options when the option price is less than the
market value of the underlying stock on the grant date.  Companies
that do not follow the new fair value method will be required to
provide expanded disclosures of net income and earnings per share
as if they had adopted the fair value accounting method.  The
Company intends to continue using the intrinsic value based method
and will provide expanded disclosure related to the fair value
method of accounting for stock-based compensation in the future
years.

     During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," which is effective in
1996.  The Statement requires that long-lived assets to be held and
used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable, and recognize an impairment loss if the sum of
the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the
asset.  The loss to be recognized is based upon the fair value of the
asset.  Assets to be disposed will be reported at the lower of the
carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  Management does not
expect the adoption of FASB Statement No. 121 to have a significant
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


1994 COMPARED TO 1993

     Net income for 1994 was $12,612,000 or $1.38 per share
compared to $11,573,000 or $1.27 per share for 1993.  This increase
was primarily due to an increase in net interest income.  For 1994,
ROA was 1.11% and ROE was 10.36%, compared to 1993 when the ROA was
1.11% and ROE was 10.00%.  

NET INTEREST INCOME

     In 1994, net interest income on a tax equivalent basis
increased $4,629,000 to $46,055,000.  Net interest income was
favorably impacted by increases in average earning assets and
rising interest rates.  The average yield on earning assets
increased from 7.45% in 1993 to 7.60% in 1994, with a similar
increase in the average rate on interest bearing liabilities from
3.82% in 1993 to 3.94% in 1994.  The shift to higher interest
rates, interacting with the timing of repricing and shift in
composition of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities
during the year, resulted in a net interest spread of 3.66% in 1994
compared to 3.63% in 1993.  The net yield on earning assets also
increased in 1994 to 4.34% compared to 4.27% in 1993.  The average
prime rate in 1994 was 7.14% compared to 6.00% in 1993.

     Average earning assets increased approximately $90 million or
9.3% in 1994 to $1,059,202,000.  The increase was centered in
loans, which increased approximately $64 million or 10.4% to
$679,100,000, and in the securities portfolio, which increased
approximately $55 million.  These increases were partially offset
by a $29 million decrease in short-term lower yielding assets
(federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to
resell).  Changes in the composition and amounts of earning assets
arose in part from management's response to the increasing interest
rate environment in 1994, where such changes were necessary to
maintain a proper match among assets and liabilities, while
increasing the yield on investable funds. 

     The growth in average earning assets was achieved despite a
minor increase in average deposits.  Average advances from the
Federal Home Loan Bank increased $24 million.  Securities sold
under agreements to repurchase increased $52 million.  Non-interest
bearing liabilities, which include outstanding money orders and
similar payment instruments, continued to increase in 1994 and
provided support for earning asset growth.  Non-interest bearing
deposits and capital were 20.5% of earning assets in 1994 compared
to 21.1% in 1993.
     
     The changes in interest income attributable to volume and rate
changes are summarized in the table on page 21.



PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     The provision for loan losses was $712,000 in 1994 compared to
$390,000 for 1993.  During 1994, the Company had net charge-offs of
$245,000, compared to net recoveries of $168,000 in 1993, a decline
in the level of non-performing loans, and no appreciable increase
in the risk characteristics of its loan portfolio.  These and other
factors were considered in determining the provision for loan
losses in 1994.

     At December 31, 1994, the allowance for loan losses was 1.01%
of loans outstanding compared to 1.00% at the end of 1993.  

NON-INTEREST INCOME

     Non-interest income increased $657,000 or 6% in 1994 compared
to 1993.  Trust Department income was relatively flat in 1994
compared to 1993, despite increased fees for special services in
the stock transfer area during 1993.  The year 1994 was favorably
impacted  by the fee revenues associated with a 4% increase in
trust assets under management.  Service charges on deposit accounts
decreased 3.3% in 1994 compared to 1993.  This decline, related
primarily to checking account service charges, results from new and
more competitively priced retail deposit products which have
attracted new depositors as well as conversions of existing
accounts from higher priced deposit products.  Money order fees
increased from $2,553,000 in 1993 to $3,333,000 in 1994, an
increase of 30.6%.  This increase was due to the increased sales
volume of the money order subsidiary.  By year end 1994, the money
order subsidiary operated in all 50 states, through a network of
approximately 2,800 agents.  There was a continuing increase in the
monthly volume of money order sales throughout 1994.  Securities
and trading account activity resulted in a net loss of $4,000 in
1994 compared to a net loss of $101,000 in 1993.  There were no
significant fluctuations between 1994 and 1993 in the several
components of other non-interest income.

OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES

     Other operating expenses increased $3,316,000 or 9.7% to
$37,592,000 from $34,276,000 in 1993.  This increase was primarily
associated with increases in personnel costs, expenses related to
technology improvements and maintenance, and expenses related to
facilities remodeling and expansion.

     Salaries and benefits increased $2,112,000 or 11.5% to
$20,538,000.  The increase in salaries and benefits was attributed
to several factors, including annual salary adjustments which
averaged approximately 7.5%, a full year's cost for the management
and staffing additions and upgrades that occurred throughout the
latter half of 1993, and an increase in average full-time employees
from 626 to 639.  The increase in the employee base was related to
support of operations, technology enhancements, credit analysis,
customer service and business development activities.  

     Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses both increased
in 1994 compared to 1993.  Occupancy expense, up 8.7% in 1994, was
impacted primarily by increased rent expense related to additional
space at the main office facility, additional depreciation related
to the subsidiary Savings Bank's facility, opened in December 1993,
and improvements at several branches.  Furniture and equipment
expenses increased 6.9% in 1994 compared to 1993.  The increased
furniture and equipment expenses reflect increased depreciation for
technology equipment additions/upgrades in 1993 and 1994 and
depreciation on additional money order equipment.  Equipment
maintenance expenses were similarly impacted by new technology
equipment and additional money order equipment. 

     The other expenses category of other operating expenses
includes operating supplies, professional fees, taxes other than
income taxes, deposit insurance and other expenses.  Generally, the
expanded level of activity throughout the Bank and at the money
order subsidiary caused the 7.6% increase in these expenses in 1994
compared to 1993.  There were no significant unusual items in these
expense categories in 1994.

Management's Statement on Financial Reporting

The Management of the Company is responsible for the integrity and
objectivity of the financial information presented in this Annual
Report.  Management has prepared the financial statements according to
generally accepted accounting principles, which involve the use of
estimates and judgements where appropriate.

To meet its responsibility, Management maintains a comprehensive
system of internal control to assure proper authorization of
transactions, safeguarding of assets and reliability of financial
records.  This system can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that errors and irregularities can be prevented or detected.
 The concept of reasonable assurance is based on the recognition that
the cost of a system of internal control must be related to the
benefits derived.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the systems of
internal control and financial reporting.  The Committee meets and
consults regularly with Management, the internal auditors, and the
independent auditors to review the scope and results of their work.

The accounting firm of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP has performed an
independent audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements. 
The firm's report appears on the following page.

         Bertram W. Klein                           Steven A. Small
        Chairman of the Board             Chief Financial Officer and

Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Mid-America Bancorp:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Mid-America Bancorp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1995.  These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards 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.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Mid-America Bancorp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115,
"Accounting For Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", in
1994.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Mid-America Bancorp is a bank and savings and loan holding company
whose primary subsidiary is Mid-America Bank of Louisville and Trust
Company (the Bank).  Other subsidiaries include Mid-America Bank, FSB,
and Mid-America Money Order Company.  Mid-America Bancorp is primarily
engaged in commercial and personal banking activities and trust
services.  Although much less significant to operations and financial
condition, Mid-America Bancorp, through its money order subsidiary, is
engaged in the issuance and sale of retail money orders and similar
payment instruments throughout the United States.  Banking activities
are conducted predominantly in Jefferson County, Kentucky and
surrounding communities.                                              

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Mid-America Bancorp and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries (the Company).  Significant intercompany accounts have
been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain prior year amounts have
been reclassified to conform with current classifications.

Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell -- The Company obtains
possession and/or control through third parties of underlying
securities held as collateral for securities purchased under
agreements to resell.  Collateral for securities purchased under
agreements to resell is priced with accrued interest based on the bid
price at the end of the day and must exceed the face amount of the
security purchased under agreements to resell by a stated margin
amount.  The Company monitors the prices and margins on a daily basis.

Securities -- Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (FASB Statement) No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." 
Debt securities are classified as securities held to maturity and
carried at amortized cost if management has the positive intent and
ability to hold the securities to maturity.  Securities purchased with
the intention of recognizing short-term profits are placed in a
trading account and are carried at market value with unrealized gains
or losses reported in income.  Securities not classified as securities
held to maturity or trading and which may be sold in response to or in
anticipation of changes in interest rates or based on other factors
are designated as securities available for sale and are carried at
fair value with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax effects,
reflected in shareholders' equity.    Amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts are recorded on the interest method.  The
specific identification method is used in determining gains and losses
on the sale of securities.

Loans and Allowance for loan losses -- Loans are reported at the
principal balance outstanding, net of unearned income and deferred
loan fees.  Interest on loans and amortization of unearned income and
deferred loan fees, are computed by methods which generally result in
level rates of return.  Generally, the accrual of interest on loans,
including loans impaired under FASB Statement No. 114, is discontinued
when it is determined that the collection of interest or principal is
doubtful, or when a default of interest or principal has existed for
90 days or more, unless such loan is well secured and in the process
of collection. Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is
either applied against principal or reported as interest income,
according to management's judgement as to the collectibility of
principal.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level adequate to
absorb estimated probable credit losses.  Management determines the
adequacy of the allowance based upon reviews of individual credits,
evaluation of the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio,
including the impact of current economic conditions on the borrowers'
ability to repay, past collection and loss experience and such other
factors, which, in management's judgment, deserve current recognition.
 The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to operating
earnings and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.               
                                                               0
Effective January 1, 1995, the Company adopted FASB Statement No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan", as amended by FASB
Statement No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -
Income Recognition and Disclosures".  Under these standards, a loan is
impaired when it is probable that the creditor will be unable to
collect contractual interest and principal according to the terms of
the loan agreement.  The allowance for loan losses related to impaired
loans is based on discounted cash flows at the loan's initial
effective interest rate or the fair value of collateral for collateral
dependent loans.

Premises and Equipment -- Premises and equipment are stated at cost
less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation is
computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease term,
if shorter, on the straight line method.                              

Other Assets -- Included in other assets is real estate acquired in
settlement of loans which is carried at the lower of cost or fair
value minus estimated disposition costs.  Any write-downs at the date
of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses.  Expenses
incurred in maintaining assets, subsequent write-downs to reflect
declines in value, and realized gains or losses are reflected in
income.  

Income Taxes -- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance
with FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which
requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for
income taxes.  The amounts provided for income taxes are based upon
the amounts of current and deferred taxes payable or refundable at the
date of the financial statements as measured by the provisions of
enacted laws and tax rates.  The Company previously followed FASB
Statement No. 96, " Accounting for Income Taxes", and adopted FASB
Statement No. 109 on a prospective basis in the first quarter of 1993.
 The implementation of this new accounting standard was not
significant to financial condition or results of operations.

Net Income Per Common Share -- Net income per common share is
determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for the number of shares
that would be issued assuming the exercise of stock options.

B. CASH FLOWS

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, federal
funds sold, and securities purchased under agreements to resell.
Certain activities of the Company, such as the acquisition of property
in exchange for release of indebtedness, do not result in cash
receipts or payments and, therefore, are not presented in the
consolidated statements of cash flows.

During 1995, 1994 and 1993, cash paid for income taxes
amounted to $5,046,000, $3,769,000 and $5,577,000,
respectively, and cash paid for interest was $41,183,000,
$34,253,000 and $31,002,000, respectively. Loans transferred
to other assets were $158,000 in 1995, $648,000 in 1994,
and $1,207,000 in 1993. Securities held to maturity transferred to
securities available for sale amounted to $146,022,000 and $39,468,000 
in 1995 and 1993, respectively.  In 1993, trading account securities
of $91,378,000 were transferred to securities available for
sale.

In December 1995, a one-time reassessment of the Company's securities
held to maturity was undertaken, as permitted by the Financial
Accounting  Standards Board's special report related to implementation
of FASB Statement No. 115.  In connection with that reassessment, the
Company transferred securities held to maturity with an amortized cost
of $146,022,000 to securities available for sale in order to permit more
responsiveness to changes in interest rates and other balance sheet
management factors.  At the date of transfer, December 1,1995, the
securities held to maturity had net unrealized gains of $2,422,000.

A summary of debt securities at December 31, 1995 based on contractual
maturities is shown in the table below.  Actual maturities may differ
from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call
or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.  The
weighted average expected maturity of collateralized mortgage
obligations was 3 years and 5 months.

Loans outstanding and unfunded commitments are primarily concentrated
in the Company's market area which encompasses Jefferson County,
Kentucky and surrounding communities.  The Company's credit exposure
is diversified, with secured and unsecured loans to consumers, small
businesses and large corporations.  Although the Company has a
diversified loan portfolio, the ability of customers to honor loan
commitments is based, in part, on the economic stability of the
geographic region and/or industry in which they do business.

At December 31, 1995, the recorded investment in loans considered
impaired under FASB Statement No. 114 was $14.328 million, of which
$14.301 million were on a nonaccrual basis.  Included in impaired
loans is $11.460 million of impaired loans for which the related
allowance for loan losses is $1.930 million and $2.868 million of
impaired loans, that as a result of charge-offs, do not have an
allowance for loan losses.  The average recorded investment in
impaired loans during 1995 was approximately $6.989 million.  For the
year ended December 31, 1995, the Company recognized interest income
on impaired loans of $89,000 using the cash basis method of income
recognition.

At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company had nonaccrual loans of
approximately $2.7 million. The Company recorded $47,000 of interest
income on these loans in 1994 and would have recorded $208,000 of
interest income if these loans were  performing under original terms.
In 1993, the Company recorded $166,000 of interest income on
nonaccrual loans and would have recorded $259,000 of interest  income
if these loans were performing under original terms.

Based upon historical and projected levels of taxable income,
management believes it is more likely than  not that the Company will

K. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially
all of its employees.  The benefits are based on years of service and
employee compensation during the ten years of employment prior to
retirement.  The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually
the amount greater than or equal to the funding requirements of ERISA,
but not in excess of the maximum deductible limit.  Employer
contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed
to service to date, but also for those expected to be earned in the
future.

The following table sets forth the plan's funded status and amounts
recognized in the Company's consolidated balance sheet:

Common stock received through the exercise of incentive stock options
which are sold by the optionee within two years of grant or one year
of exercise result in a tax deduction for the Company equivalent to
the taxable gain recognized by the optionee.  For financial reporting
purposes, the tax effect of this deduction is accounted for as an
increase in additional paid-in capital rather than as a reduction of
income tax expense.  

L. REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS ON DIVIDENDS AND CASH
Under the Federal Reserve Act, prior approval of the Federal banking
authorities is required if dividends declared by the Company's banking
subsidiary in any year exceed its net profits for that year, as
defined, combined with retained net profits, as defined, for the two
preceding years.  As of January 1, 1996, the aggregate amount of
retained earnings available for distribution to the Company by all
subsidiaries without prior approval was approximately $9,935,000. In
addition to restrictions on the payment of dividends, the Federal
Reserve and the Commonwealth of Kentucky place certain cash reserve
requirements on deposits. The reserve requirements, which were
$25,432,000 at December 31, 1995, are met by holding a percentage of
deposits in vault cash or maintaining a balance directly with the
Federal Reserve.  The Company was in compliance with all cash reserve
requirements at December 31, 1995.

N. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, in order to meet the financing needs
of customers, the Company has outstanding commitments and contingent
liabilities.  At December 31, 1995, the Company had $261,784,000 of
commitments to extend credit (of which $102,990,000 relates to home
equity lines of credit), substantially all of which are at variable
rates, including standby letters of credit of $12,743,000, which are
not  reflected in the consolidated financial statements.  The
Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to these commitments is represented by the contractual
amount of those instruments.

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 or other
termination clauses 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.  The Company evaluates each customers' creditworthiness
on a case-by-case basis.  The amount of collateral obtained if deemed
necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on
management's credit evaluation of the counterparty.  Collateral held
varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant
and equipment, real estate and income-producing commercial properties.
 
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written 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 commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions.
 
At December 31, 1995, there were various pending legal actions and
proceedings in which claims for damages were asserted. In one such
matter, the Bank is one of 13 defendants named in a lawsuit filed on
December 10, 1993, by Kentucky Central Life Insurance Company (in
Rehabilitation) involving certain real estate loans.  Management,
after discussion with legal counsel concerning the adequacy of the
Company's defenses, believes that this and other legal actions will
not have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition of the
Bank or the Company.

The above transactions were made on substantially the same terms,
including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the
time for other customers in the ordinary course of business. 

The Company purchases services from companies controlled by certain
members of the Board of Directors and in prior years leased certain
office space from a retired director.  Amounts paid were approximately
$15,000, $629,000 and $936,000 for 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

Q. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - INTEREST RATE SWAP CONTRACTS

The Company manages its exposure to market risk, in part, by
using interest rate swap contracts to modify the existing interest
rate characteristics of its floating rate loan portfolio.
The notional amount of the interest rate swap contracts
represents only an agreed-upon amount on which calculations of
interest payments to be exchanged are based, and is significantly
greater than the amount at risk.  Credit risk is measured as the
cost of replacing, at current market rates, contracts in an 
unrealized gain position. Although the Company is exposed to
credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the
counterparty, based on management's assessment, as of
December 31, 1995, the counterparty was expected to meet its
obligations. In addition, the Company deals exclusively with
counterparties with high credit ratings, enters into bilateral
collateral arrangements and arranges master netting
agreements.  These agreements include legal rights of setoff that
provide for the net settlement of the subject contracts with the
same counterparty in the event of default.

At December 31, 1995, the Company had entered into interest
rate swap contracts with notional amounts totaling $100 million
with a weighted average maturity of 3.81 years.  Under these
contracts the Company receives or pays the difference between
the floating prime rate and fixed rates stated in the contracts.
At December 31, 1995, the floating prime rate to be paid by the
Company was 8.50% and the weighted average fixed rate to be
received by the Company was 8.728%. Net receipts or payments
under the contracts are recognized as adjustments to interest
income.  Interest rate swap contracts increased net interest
income in 1995 by $21,000. At December 31, 1995, the aggregate
positive fair value of interest rate swap contracts, determined
through market quotes, was approximately $2,444,000.

</TABLE>
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate
the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash, Short-Term Investments, and Short-Term Borrowings--For
those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a
reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities--For securities, fair value equals quoted market
price, if available.  If a quoted market price is not
available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices
for similar securities or dealer quotes.

Loans--The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the
future cash flows using the current rates at which similar
loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings
and for the same remaining maturities, reduced by the
allowance for loan losses which represents the estimated
credit risk in the loan portfolio.

Deposits--The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts,
and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at
the reporting date.  The fair value of fixed-maturity
certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently
offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank--Rates currently
available to the Company for debt with similar terms and
remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of
existing debt.

Money Orders and Similar Payment Instruments Outstanding -
The fair value of these instruments, payable upon  demand, is
carrying value.

Interest Rate Swaps - The fair value of interest rate swaps is
the estimated amount, based on market quotes, that the Company
would receive to terminate the agreement at the reporting
date, taking into account current interest rates and the
remaining term of the agreements.

Commitments--The fair value of commitments to extend credit is
estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into
similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of
the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the
counterparties.  For fixed rate loan commitments, fair value
also considers the difference between current levels of
interest rates and the committed rates.  There are no
significant fair value adjustments for commitments. 

Limitations--The fair value estimates are made at a discrete
point in time based on relevant market information about the
financial instruments.  Because no market exists for a
significant portion of the Company's financial instruments,
fair value estimates are based on judgements regarding future
expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk
characteristics of various financial instruments, and other
factors.  These estimates are subjective in nature and involve
uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and
therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in
assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
