CBT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
March 31, 1998
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 10-1 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.
The financial statements include the accounts of CBT Corporation
(the Parent Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Citizens
Bank and Trust Company of Paducah (Citizens), Pennyrile Citizens
Bank and Trust Company (PCB), Bank of Marshall County (BOMC),
Graves County Bank, Inc. (GCB), and United Commonwealth Bank, FSB
(UCB). Collectively, these entities constitute the
"Corporation", which provides financial services primarily in
western Kentucky and surrounding communities. Fidelity Credit
Corporation (FCC), a finance company that operates throughout
Kentucky, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Citizens. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 31,
1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Corporation's annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purpose of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents
include cash and due from banks, Federal funds sold and money
market investments.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered
adequate to provide for potential losses based on management's
evaluation of the loan portfolio, including the financial
strength of guarantors, valuation of collateral, and the
likelihood of further collection based upon the borrower's
financial condition, as well as on prevailing and anticipated
economic conditions.
Although management uses the best information available to make
determinations with respect to the Corporation's allowance,
future adjustments may be necessary if economic or other
conditions differ substantially from the economic and other
conditions considered in making the initial determinations, and
such adjustments could be material.
The Corporation's impaired loans are generally measured on a loan
by loan basis. Interest payments received on impaired loans are
recorded as interest income unless collection of the loan is
doubtful, in which case payments are recorded as a reduction of
principal.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation of premises and equipment is computed
using the straight-line and accelerated methods over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
Years
Buildings and improvements 15 - 35
Furniture and fixtures 7
Equipment 5
<PAGE> 8
Repurchase Agreements
Certain securities are sold under agreements to repurchase and
are treated as financings. The obligation to repurchase such
securities is reflected as a liability on the consolidated
balance sheets. The dollar amounts of securities underlying the
agreements are included in the respective asset accounts
Trust Fees and Assets
Revenues from trust services are reported on the cash basis in
accordance with customary banking practice. Reporting such
revenues on the accrual basis would not materially affect the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Assets held in a
fiduciary or agency capacity for customers and beneficiaries are
not included in the consolidated financial statements as such
items are not assets of the Corporation.
Securities to be Held to Maturity and Securities Available for
Sale
Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recorded
primarily on the interest method. Gains and losses on disposition
of investment securities and securities available for sale are
computed by the specific identification method.
Loans and Interest Income
Loans are stated at the principal balance outstanding, net of
unearned interest. Interest on loans is based upon the principal
balance outstanding, except interest on some consumer installment
loans, which is recognized on the sum-of-the-years-digits method,
and does not differ materially from the interest method.
The accrual of interest income is generally reviewed for
discontinuance when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to
principal or interest. When interest is discontinued, all unpaid
accrued interest is reversed. Management may elect to continue
the accrual of interest when the estimated net realizable value
of collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and
accrued interest or, in the opinion of management, when the
interest is collectible.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes in the interim periods has been
calculated using the anticipated effective tax rate for the
respective calendar year, taking into consideration certain tax-
exempt loan and investment income.
Per Common Share Data
During 1997, the corporation adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings per Share."
Under the standards established by SFAS No. 128, per share
information is measured at two levels: basic and diluted.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1997 financial
statements to conform to the presentation of the 1998 financial
statements.
Uses of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
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.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
CBT Corporation ("CBT") is a multi-bank holding company
consisting of four state chartered commercial banks, one federal
savings bank, and a consumer finance company. The banks' 18
locations provide financial services primarily in western
Kentucky, while the finance company has 26 locations throughout
the Commonwealth. The following discussion and analysis is
presented on a consolidated basis, with all significant
intercompany accounts and transactions eliminated.
For the three month period ended March 30, 1998, CBT earned
$3,201,0000 compared to $3,131,000 earned during the first
quarter of 1997. Basic earnings per share was $0.41 for 1998 and
$0.40 per share for 1997. Fully diluted earnings per share was
$0.40 for 1998 and $0.40 for 1997.
Return on average equity was 10.76 percent and 11.38 percent for
the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively. Return on
average assets for the three month period ended March 31, 1998
was 1.25 percent, compared with 1.33 percent for the same 1997
period.

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on
assets and interest incurred on liabilities. It is affected by
changes in the mix and volume of earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities, their related yields, and overall interest
rates. For discussion purposes herein, net interest income is
presented on a tax-equivalent basis with adjustments made to
present yields on tax-exempt assets as if such income was fully
taxable.
In the first quarter of 1998, tax equivalent net interest income
provided 80.4 percent of CBT's net revenue, compared with 81.2
percent in the first quarter of 1997. The change was a result of
higher fee income in 1998 compared to 1997. Total tax-
equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of 1998
increased 7.47 percent from the first quarter a year ago. Growth
in tax-equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of
1998 over 1997 was due to growth in average earning assets of 8.4
percent partially offset by a 5 basis point decline in net
interest margin.
Net interest margin, the ratio of tax-equivalent net interest
income divided by average earning assets, was 4.76 percent and
4.81 percent for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and March
31, 1997, respectively. The decline was caused by lower loan
yields primarily as a result of non-accrual loans and increased
competitions. A mitigating factor was higher security yields.
Also affecting the net interest margin was the increase in 1997
of the security portfolio as a percent of total earning assets.
While security yields were improved, they still lagged behind
loan yields and as securities have assumed a more prominent
position in CBT's earning asset mix, net interest margin
declined. The following schedule presents yields and costs on
key components of interest income and interest expense for the
first three months of 1998 and 1997.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses reflects management's judgment of
the current period cost associated with maintaining adequate
reserves for the credit risk inherent in CBT's loan portfolio.
The consolidated provision for loan losses was $1,169,000 for the
first quarter of 1998, a 25.7 percent increase from the $930,000
provision recorded in the first quarter of 1997. The first
quarter 1998 provision for loan losses was 0.65 percent of
average loans on an annualized basis, compared with 0.55 percent
in the prior year
Net loan losses were $622,000 for the first quarter of 1998
compared to $438,000 for the first quarter of 1997. Net loan
losses as a percent of average loans on an annualized basis were
0.35 percent for the three months ended March 30, 1998, compared
to 0.26 percent for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
The following is a progression of the allowance for loan losses:

Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income represented 19.6 percent of CBT's tax-
equivalent revenue in the first quarter of 1998, compared with
18.8 percent in the same quarter of 1997. Consolidated non-
interest income increased 12.8 percent or $317,000 in the first
quarter of 1998 to $2,789,000 compared to $2,472,000 in the same
period of 1997. Trust fees increased 11.0 percent during the
first quarter of 1998. Investment advisory fees increased 60.4%
in part because of the strength of the stock market during the
first quarter of 1998 over 1997. Improvement was also noted in
car club revenue by FCC (25.8 percent). Official check
commissions decreased 56.3 percent over the first quarter of 1997
as a result of a dispute with the service provider over fee
computations. Other non-interest income increased 43.5 percent
from the first quarter of 1997 primarily as a result of increases
in secondary market fees (17.7 percent) and $50,000 in
nonrecurring check printing fees (144.5 percent).

Non-Interest Expenses
Total non-interest expense increased $643,000, or 8.6 percent,
for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the first quarter of
1997. Salaries and benefits increased $249,000 (6.1 percent)
primarily as a result of annual merit increases and additional
accruals for sales incentives and other bonuses. Depreciation
and amortization grew $82,000 (15.1 percent) because of the
acquisition of the Fifth Third branch by GCB in May and of the
Republic branch by UCB in August and the resultant amortization
of premiums associated with the acquired deposits. Data
processing costs increased $11,000 or 2.5 percent reflecting
higher fees charged by our service provider implemented in the
third quarter of 1997. Increases in franchise taxes reflect the
settlement of a 1995 tax dispute along with an accrual
adjustment. Fluctuations in advertising, telephone, special
services, and community development reflect timing differences of
expense payments and accruals compared with 1997. Other expenses
increased $141,000 primarily from increases in collection costs
($41,000), brokerage expenses ($22,000), and net change in
miscellaneous charge-offs and recoveries ($93,000) primarily
caused by recoveries in 1997.

The efficiency ratio, defined as non-interest expense divided by
tax-equivalent revenue, is a measure of how effective a financial
services company is in leveraging its resources to produce
revenue. A lower ratio indicates better performance. CBT's
efficiency ratio was 56.50 percent for the first quarter of 1998
compared to 56.75 percent for the same period in 1997.
Income Taxes
CBT's income tax planning is based upon the goal of maximizing
long-term, after-tax profitability. Income tax expense is
significantly affected by the mix of taxable versus tax-exempt
revenues.
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March
31, 1998 and 1997 was 27.2 percent and 29.3 percent,
respectively. The change is attributable to the increase of tax-
exempt revenue (municipal bonds) as a percent of total revenue.
Consolidated Balance Sheet Analysis
Earning Assets
At March 31, 1998, average earning assets were $976.4 million,
compared with $901.0 million at March 31, 1997. This increase is
due to a $42.3 million increase in loans, a $35.6 million
increase in securities, and a $2.5 million decrease in Federal
funds and other earning assets. Total earning assets at March
31, 1998 consisted of 74.2 percent loans, 25.5 percent
securities, and 0.3 percent Federal funds and other earning
assets, while the March 31, 1997 earning asset mix consisted of
75.7 percent loans, 23.7 percent securities, and 0.6 percent
Federal funds and other earning assets. The change in mix was
caused by two branch acquisitions that involved the purchase of
virtually no loans and the security leverage strategy implemented
in the third quarter of 1997.
Investment Risk Management
CBT has certain securities in its available for sale portfolio
that are classified as derivative securities by banking
regulators. At March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997,
respectively, CBT had $200,000 and $701,000 in derivative
securities. These amounts represent 0.1 percent and 0.3 percent
of the total securities available for sale at March 31, 1998 and
December 31, 1997, respectively. All are guaranteed by
government agencies and none have a maturity of over 1 year. The
amount and nature of these securities pose no undue risk to CBT's
financial position and there are no plans to acquire additional
derivative securities.
CBT Corporation's board approved the implementation of a security
leverage strategy totaling $25 million in July 1997. The Company
believes that the current favorable inflation outlook and
expected moderate economic growth will result in stable to lower
interest rates over the next 3 to 5 years. Given the
Corporation's exceptionally strong capital position, the $25
million position was deemed conservative. With the favorable
spread between borrowing costs and the tax-equivalent yield
available during the first quarter, CBT Corporation borrowed $25
million of FHLB advances at 5.96 percent (original maturity of
approximately 1.5 years in duration) which it used to purchase
tax-exempt municipal securities bearing a tax-equivalent yield of
7.37 percent. Securities purchased mature in approximately
fifteen years, are primarily AAA rated, and generally were either
par bonds or carried premium coupons. The strategy was fully
implemented by September 30, 1997.
Credit Risk Management
CBT manages exposure to credit risk though loan portfolio
diversification by customer, industry, and loan type. As a
result, there is no undue concentration in any single sector.
CBT regularly evaluates economic conditions affecting its lending
markets. Economic indicators such as unemployment levels, real
estate activity, and bankruptcy filings are evaluated. During
the first quarter of 1998, CBT's primary market areas continued
<PAGE> 15
to experience favorable unemployment levels while real estate
values softened somewhat. Bankruptcy filings in CBT's markets
have continued to increase during 1998, extending the trend
started in 1997. Management has considered expected economic
trends in assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses
and believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate in
light of these trends, among other factors. CBT's credit risk is
also diversified by loan type. At March 31, 1998, 40.2 percent
of the portfolio consisted of residential real estate and mobile
home loans, 32.7 percent of commercial and agricultural loans and
27.1 percent of consumer loans.
Credit risk management also includes monitoring the performance
of existing portfolios. CBT has in place a comprehensive
internal credit review program to assess the current financial
condition and operating performance of significant commercial
borrowers.

</TABLE>
CBT continues to classify its loans consistent with current
regulatory review results. There are no material commitments to
lend additional funds to customers whose loans were classified as
non-accrual at March 31, 1998.
Allowance for Loan Losses
At March 31, 1998, the allowance for loan losses was $9.8
million, or 1.37 percent of net loans outstanding, compared with
$9.2 million, or 1.28 percent at December 31, 1997. The ratio of
the allowance for loan losses to non-performing assets was 124.6
percent at March 31, 1998, compared with 127.3 percent at
December 31, 1997. Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual
loans, loans past-due thirty days or more that are still accruing
interest and other real estate owned.
Although it is impossible for any lender to predict future loan
losses with complete accuracy, management monitors the allowance
for loan losses with the intent to provide for all losses that
can reasonably be anticipated based on current conditions. CBT
has a comprehensive credit grading system and other internal loan
monitoring systems to support this assessment. CBT management
maintains the allowance available to cover future loan losses
within the entire loan portfolio and believes the allowance for
loan losses is adequate at March 31, 1998 based on the current
level of non-performing assets and the expected level of future
charge-offs.
Non-Performing Assets
The table below presents data on CBT's non-performing assets. As
previously defined, non-performing assets consist of non-accrual
loans, loans past due threety days or more that are still
accruing interest and other real estate owned. At March 31,
1998, non-performing assets totaled $7.8 million, or 1.1 percent
of net loans and other real estate owned, compared with $7.5
million, or 1.0 percent of net loans and other real estate owned,
at December 31, 1997.

Non-performing assets ("NPA's") were higher at March 31, 1998
than one year earlier and remain higher than recent historic
levels. Management expects NPA's to remain at this or modestly
higher levels for the next several quarters until the workout
strategies now underway have a positive impact and reduce the
level of NPA's.
Funding Sources
Non-Interest Bearing Deposits
Non-interest bearing deposits, which represent a portion of CBT's
core deposits, were $78.2 million at March 31, 1998, a $1.3
million decline from December 31, 1997. Average non-interest
bearing deposits were $73.1 million for the first three months of
1998 compared with $68.1 million for first three months of 1997.
Non-interest bearing deposits represented 8.7 percent of CBT's
total funding sources at March 31, 1998, compared with 8.4
percent at December 31, 1997. A portion of these deposits was
purchased as a part of two branch deposit acquisitions
consummated in 1997.
Interest-Bearing Liabilities
Interest-bearing liabilities for CBT consist of certain core
deposits, purchased deposits, and other borrowings. At March 31,
1998, interest-bearing liabilities totaled $819.2 million, a
decrease of $44.3 million over December 31, 1997. The decrease
is due primarily to a $30.5 million decrease in interest-bearing
deposits and a $14.2 million increase in Federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.
Interest-bearing Core Deposits - In CBT's banking subsidiaries,
NOW, Money Manager, Individual Retirement and savings accounts,
and certificates of deposit under $100,000 are considered core
interest-bearing deposits. At March 31, 1998 these deposits
accounted for 62.0 percent of CBT's total funding sources
compared with 61.7 percent at December 31, 1997.
Purchased Deposits - Purchased deposits, which CBT defines as
certificates of deposit with denominations of $100,000 or more
and brokered certificates of deposit, decreased $5.3 million or
6.2 percent to $79.8 million from $85.1 million at December 31,
1997. Purchased deposits represented 8.9 percent of CBT's total
funding sources at March 31, 1998, compared with 9.0 percent at
December 31, 1997. At March 31, 1998, CBT held $5.6 million of
brokered certificates of deposit. Management does not plan to
add any additional brokered certificates or to offer to renew the
existing brokered certificates of deposits at maturity.
Short-term Borrowings - Short-term borrowings include Federal
funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase,
US Treasury notes payable, revolving lines of credit, and short-
term Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Management views
borrowings as a cost-effective alternative to purchased deposits
and interest-bearing core deposits and actively manages CBT's
borrowing position to maintain acceptable net interest margins
and liquidity. At March 31, 1998, short-term borrowings
accounted for 15.5 percent of CBT's total funding sources,
compared with 15.6 percent at December 31, 1997. A portion of
this position was established to fund the $25 million security
leverage strategy noted earlier.
<PAGE> 17
In July 1998, CBT Corporation implemented an arbitrage strategy
of $25 million. Funding for this strategy was received through
additional FHLB borrowings at a weighted average cost of 5.96%
Asset and Liability Management
Financial institutions manage the inherently different maturity
and repricing characteristics of earning assets and interest-
bearing funding to achieve a desired interest rate sensitivity
position and to limit their exposure to interest rate risk. The
goal of the asset and liability management process is to manage
the structure of the balance sheet to provide the optimal level
of net interest income while maintaining acceptable levels of
interest rate risk (as defined below) and liquidity. The focal
point of this process is the Asset and Liability Management
Committee (ALCO) of CBT, an executive-level management committee.
ALCO meets monthly to consider CBT's consolidated interest rate
risk and liquidity posture. The Committee takes an active role
in maintaining and hedging CBT's profitability under a variety of
interest rate scenarios. The actual management of interest rate
risk is governed by an asset and liability management policy.
Interest Rate Risk and Its Measurement
Interest rate risk is the risk that future changes in interest
rates will reduce net interest income or the market value of a
financial institution. Management uses various measurement tools
to monitor CBT's interest rate risk position. One measurement
tool is the GAP report, which classifies assets and liabilities
and their respective yields and costs in terms of maturity or
repricing dates. While considerable judgment is necessary to
appropriately classify certain balance sheet items that have no
contractual maturity or repricing dates, the GAP report provides
management a basic measure of interest rate risk. CBT monitors
the GAP position of each subsidiary individually (FCC is included
with Citizens), as well as on a consolidated basis. The asset
and liability management policy at each subsidiary specifies
targets based primarily on the one year cumulative GAP position
in conjunction with a market volatility risk analysis At March
31, 1998 the one year cumulative interest rate GAP, defined as
the ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities,
was .88, while at December 31, 1997, the one year cumulative
interest rate GAP was .87. A GAP of less than one indicates
that, over the time horizon measured, more liabilities will
reprice than assets.
GAP as an interest rate risk measurement tool has several
limitations: it is a static measurement; it requires the
establishment of an subjective time horizon; and it does not
capture basis risk or risk that varies non-proportionally with
rate movements. Because of such limitations, CBT supplements its
use of GAP with a computer model to estimate the impact of
various parallel shifts in the yield curve on net interest income
and the fair value of equity under a variety of interest rate
scenarios. CBT's management believes the two approaches
compliment each other in understanding the impact of changes in
interest rates on the financial performance and condition of CBT.
Based on modeling using March 31, 1998 data, CBT would expect its
net interest income to change no more than 4.0 percent under a
200 basis point parallel shift up or down of the yield curve, a
level of risk management deems appropriate. Management expects
the GAP as currently measured to generally fall between .80 and
.90 and thinks this level of interest rate risk exposure is
warranted given its current balance sheet mix, capital position
and interest rate outlook.
Liquidity Management
Liquidity management involves planning to meet funding needs at a
reasonable cost, as well as developing contingency plans to meet
unanticipated funding needs or a loss of funding sources.
Liquidity management for CBT is monitored by ALCO, which takes
into account the marketability of assets, the sources and
stability of funding, and the level of unfunded loan commitments.
CBT's consumer deposits provide a certain level of stability with
respect to liquidity. In addition, membership in the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati provides a cost-effective alternate
source of funding, as does access to brokered certificates of
deposit. CBT's available for sale investment portfolio also
provides an additional source of liquidity.
<PAGE> 18
Capital Management
CBT management believes that a strong capital position is vital
to continued profitability and promotes depositor and investor
confidence. CBT bank subsidiaries are required to maintain
capital levels sufficient to qualify for "well capitalized"
status with banking regulators and to meet anticipated growth
needs. Retained earnings and capital infusions from the parent
are the primary sources of new capital for subsidiaries. Net
income of subsidiaries in excess of capital requirements is
available to CBT in the form of dividends and is used primarily
to pay corporate dividends and to infuse other subsidiaries with
capital, as required.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
The following analysis shows comparisons between the regulatory
requirements for "well capitalized" institutions and the actual

</TABLE>
Because of solid performance and conservative capital management,
CBT has consistently maintained a strong capital position. These
ratios compare favorably with industry standards and CBT's peers.
For the three month period ended March 31, 1998, CBT's
shareholders' equity, exclusive of the unrealized loss on
securities available for sale (net of deferred tax) and stock
repurchases, grew $2.1 million. CBT's internal capital growth
rate (ICGR) for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was 1.76
percent. The ICGR represents the rate at which CBT's
shareholders' equity grew as a result of earnings retained (net
income less dividends paid).
CBT declared a $0.14 per share dividend in the first quarter of
1998, $0.01 per share greater than the amount declared one year
ago. The dividend payout ratio for the first three months of 1998
was 31.9 percent of net income, which was within management's
general payout guideline of 25 to 35 percent.
Management is currently not aware of any recommendation by
regulatory authorities which, if implemented, would have a
material effect on the Corporation's liquidity, capital
resources, or operations. Management is also not aware of any
events or uncertainties that will have or that are reasonably
likely to have a material impact on CBT's liquidity, capital
resources or operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 1998, the Corporation adopted SFAS no. 130 "
Reporting Comprehensive Income". This pronouncement establishes
standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income
and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) in a
full set of general-purpose financial statements. The adoption of
this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the
Corporation's consolidated financial statements.
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information" (FAS 131. FAS 131 requires disclosure
of selected information about operating segments including
segment income, revenues and asset data. Operating segments, as
defined in FAS 131, would include those components for which
financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision makers in assessing performance and
making resource allocation determinations for operating
components such as those which exceed 10 percent or more of
combined revenue, income or assets. The Corporation will be
required to adopt the provisions of FAS 131 in 1998. The
standards are not expected to have a material impact on the
Corporation's consolidated financial statements.
Merger
On January 10, 1998, CBT and Mercantile Bancorporation, Inc.
(Mercantile), a Missouri corporation, entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which CBT will be merged with and
into Ameribanc, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mercantile.
Ameribanc, Inc. will be the surviving entity resulting from the
