June 30, 1996
Note A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and six month period ended June
30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending December 31, 1996.
Note B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Earnings per share:
Earnings per share is based on the weighted average shares outstanding as
follows:
<TABLE>

Management's Discussion and Analysis
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Corporation functions as a financial intermediary, therefore trends in its
sources and uses of funds should be examined when reviewing financial condition.
Interest rates are a primary economic factor that affect these trends. The
average prime lending rate dropped 65 basis points to 8.27% for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to 8.92% for the same period in 1995. The
Corporation maintains a positive GAP position, therefore the lower interest rate
trend has had a negative impact on net interest income. However, in the lower
interest rate environment, loan demand has increased which has more than offset
this decrease.
LOANS RECEIVABLE
Net loans increased $13,035,000 or 7.57% during the first half of 1996 to
$185,193,000. Commercial loans increased $8,255,000 or 10.95%. The commercial
loan portfolio was positively impacted by the decrease in interest rates and
increased marketing efforts. Real estate loans increased $2,744,000 or 4.42%
as customers are refinancing loans in the low interest rate environment.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995 were as follows (in 000's):

</TABLE>
The provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996
was $45,000 and $90,000 compared to $70,000 and $200,000 for respective periods
in 1995. Management monitors the credit quality of its portfolio on an ongoing
basis to determine sufficient levels of reserve. The allowance for loan losses
was 1.75% and 1.80% of net loans outstanding at June 30, 1996 and 1995. As of
June 30, 1996, management has concluded that the allowance is adequate.
SECURITIES
The securities portfolio increased $5,653,000 or 5.19% compared to the December
31, 1995 balance of $108,822,000. The Corporation purchased $16,925,000 in
securities during the first six months of 1996. The majority of these purchases
were to replace matured/called securities and to utilize funds from principal
paydowns on mortgage-backed securities. In addition, the Corporation purchased
$5,130,000 in tax-exempt state and municipal securities to take advantage of
positive spreads over short-term borrowings. This action improved our GAP
position and lowered our already conservative interest rate risk. These
investments are classified as available for sale, therefore they can be sold if
the Corporation would change the current investment strategy.
DEPOSITS
Total deposits increased $1,760,000, or .70%, to $254,810,000 at June 30, 1996.
The Corporation was able to maintain stable deposit levels throughout the first
half of 1996 compared to the 3.01% decline in deposits during the same period in
1995. A significant portion of the run-off in 1995 can be attributed the merger
which occurred March 1, 1995.
SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS
Federal funds purchased increased $18,619,000, or 336.39%, compared to the
December 31, 1995 balance of $5,535,000. This increase was necessary to fund
loan demand and security purchases which increased significantly more than
deposits during the first six months of 1996.
LIQUIDITY
The Corporation has a one month negative maturity gap of $38,598,000. The
Corporation maintains liquidity through its available for sale securities
portfolio, which management considers extremely liquid. The liquidity of this
portfolio, the Bank's core deposits, credit facilities which have been arranged
through the Federal Home Loan Bank and potential repurchase agreements with a
major investment firm provide the Corporation with funds necessary to meet loan
demand or deposit run-off.

<PAGE>
CAPITAL
The Corporation is required to maintain minimum amounts of capital to total
"risk-weighted" assets, as defined by the banking regulators. At June 30, 1996,
the Corporation is required to have minimum Tier 1 and total capital ratios of
4.00% and 8.00%, respectively. The Corporation's actual ratios at that date
were 19.19% and 20.44%, respectively, which significantly exceed the
requirements. The Corporation's leverage ratio at June 30, 1996 was 12.48%.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the second quarter of 1996 was $1,231,000 ($.51 per share)
compared to $498,000 ($.20 per share) in 1995. Earnings for the six month
period ended June 30, 1996 were $2,412,000 ($1.00 per share), a 123% increase
over 1995 results of $1,084,000 ($.44 per share). A decrease in noninterest
expenses of $472,000 during the first six months of 1996, a result of increased
operating efficiencies and lower FDIC premiums, increased earnings per share by
$0.13. In addition, the Corporation incurred nonrecurring merger and
restructuring expenses in 1995 totalling $1,078,000, of which $583,000 was
incurred in the second quarter.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income was $3,737,000 for the three months and $7,368,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $99,000, or 2.72%, and $130,000,
or 1.80%, over the respective periods in 1995. Interest income for the three
and six month periods in 1996 increased $5,000 and decreased $17,000,
respectively. A year-to-date increase of $1,417,000 in average earning assets
increased interest income by $57,000, which was offset by a decrease in average
rates that reduced interest income by $74,000.
Interest expense decreased $94,000, or 4.26%, and $147,000, or 3.39%, for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996. The primary reason for the
decrease was a $3,356,000 decrease in average borrowings in addition to a 62
basis point decrease in the cost of these funds. The remaining decrease in
interest expense is due to a slightly lower average rate paid on interest
bearing deposits.
OTHER INCOME
Other income increased $96,000, or 26.59%, and $125,000, or 15.26%, for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995.
Trust department income increased $67,000, or 52.76%, for the three months and
$81,000, or 23.82%, for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The increase can be
attributed to an increase in the number of personal trust and investment
accounts under management in addition to a $42,000 increase in estate fees in
1996.
Service charges decreased $21,000, or 11.73%, and $13,000, or 3.93%, for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996. Demand deposit related service
charges decreased $6,000. Also, service charges on a specific deposit product
decreased $7,000 as a result of a decrease in the number of this type of
accounts compared to last year.
The "other" category increased $51,000, or 94.44%, and $63,000, or 44.37%, for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the respective periods
in 1995. This increase is primarily due to an increase in late fees on loans,
loan related commissions and in gains on sales of mortgage loans to Freddie Mac.

<PAGE>
OTHER EXPENSES
Other expenses were $2,415,000 and $4,825,000 respectively for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1996, a decrease of $833,000, or 25.65%, and $1,550,000,
or 24.31%, from the respective periods in 1995. Reasons for the decrease
include increased operating efficiencies and lower FDIC insurance premiums. In
addition, the Corporation incurred nonrecurring merger and restructuring
expenses in the first half of 1995 totalling $1,078,000, of which $583,000 were
incurred in the second quarter.
Salaries and employee benefits decreased $39,000, or 3.06%, and $141,000, or
5.44%, for the respective three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996,
compared to the same periods in 1995. This is due to the Corporation having 169
FTE's at June 30, 1996 as compared to 178 at June 30, 1995. Average costs per
employee for 1996 and 1995 are comparable.
Professional fees and other outside services increased $53,000, or 18.93%, and
$58,000, or 10.51%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996. The
majority of this increase relates to an increase in marketing related expenses
as a result of the Corporation implementing a more aggressive marketing
campaign.
Communications and supplies decreased $52,000, or 25.24%, and $33,000, or 9.32%,
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996. The majority of the decrease
relates to significant supply purchases and write-offs that were necessary in
1995 due to the name change of the Corporation.
FDIC insurance premium expenses totalled $1,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1996, representing a decrease of $286,000, or 99.65% . During 1995, the
FDIC restructured its assessment schedule after the Bank Insurance Fund was
determined to be adequately funded. The Bank was assessed at the statutory
minimum of $1,000 for the first six months of 1996 compared to $.23 per $100 of
deposits for the first six months of 1995.
The "other" category decreased $31,000, or 13.03%, and $48,000, or 10.11%, for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared to the same
periods in 1995. Insurance premiums for the six months ended June 30, 1996
decreased $13,000 due to the consolidation of policies. Loan and collection
expense decreased $32,000 as a result of the Corporation recovering the majority
of these costs incurred in 1996 through the sale of ORE properties. Offsetting
these decreases were increases in credit card and third party dealer processing
costs of $29,000 as a result of increased volume.
The Corporation adopted FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", on January 1, 1996. This standard provides companies with a
choice of how to account for stock options and other stock grants. The standard
encourages companies to account for stock options at their fair value and
recognize the expense as compensation expense over the service period, but also
permits companies to follow current accounting rules under Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25. Companies electing to follow current rules will be
required to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share information as
if the new fair value approach had been adopted. The Corporation has decided to
follow the current accounting rules under Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25 for options granted in 1996. The effect on net income for the first six
months of 1996 was immaterial.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The provision for federal income taxes was $503,000 and $985,000 for the three
and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, representing an increase of $320,000
and $587,000 compared to the respective periods in 1995. This increase is due
to increased earnings in 1996. Effective tax rates were 29.00% and 26.86% for
the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase
in effective rates is due to tax-exempt interest income from loans and
securities comprising a lower percentage of income before income taxes in 1996
compared to 1995.
