         This  form  10-Q may  include  forward-looking  statements  within  the
meaning of Section  27A of the  Securities  Act of 1933 and  Section  21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements are identified by phrases such
as the Company  "expects"  or  "anticipates"  and words of similar  effect.  The
Company's  actual results may differ  materially from those  projected.  Factors
that could cause such a difference  include,  among others:  changes in interest
rates and economic and other market  conditions  generally  and in the Company's
principal markets;  competition for origination and servicing of mortgage loans,
particularly  the types of loans purchased by the Company through its whole loan
purchasing program or retail originations;  disruption of the Company's
participation in its whole loan purchasing program or retail originations; and
changes in regulations and government policies affecting banks and their
subsidiaries, including changes in monetary policies.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

                               September 30, 1997

        NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

                 The accompanying  consolidated financial statements,  which are
unaudited, include all the accounts of City Holding Company (the Parent Company)
and its wholly owned  subsidiaries  (collectively,  the  Company).  All material
intercompany  transactions  have been  eliminated.  The  consolidated  financial
statements  include all  adjustments  which,  in the opinion of management,  are
necessary for a fair  presentation  of the results of  operations  and financial
condition for each of the periods  presented.  Such  adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.  The results of operations for the nine months ended September
30, 1997, are not  necessarily  indicative of the results of operations that can
be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. The Company's  accounting and
reporting  policies conform with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation  S-X. Such policies  require  management to make  estimates and
develop  assumptions  that  affect  the  amounts  reported  in the  consolidated
financial  statements  and related  footnotes.  Actual results could differ from
management's estimates.  Certain amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial
statements  have  been  reclassified.  Such  reclassifications  had no effect on
operating results in any period presented. For further information, refer to the
consolidated  financial  statements and footnotes  thereto  included in the City
Holding Company annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

           NOTE B - ACQUISITIONS
                  On  October  9,  1997,  City  National  Bank,  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary,  acquired First Allegiance Financial Corporation (First Allegiance),
a mortgage loan origination  company  headquartered in Irvine,  California.  The
merger  involved  an  initial  purchase  price  of  approximately  $15  million,
comprising a combination of 300,000 shares of City Holding  Company common stock
and cash, in exchange for  substantially  all of the assets and  liabilities  of
First  Allegiance.   Additional  consideration  is  contingent  upon  the  First
Allegiance  division satisfying certain  pre-established  loan production levels
subsequent to the acquisition.  The maximum purchase price equals  approximately
23% of First  Allegiance's  annualized  third  quarter of 1997 loan volume.  The
acquisition  will be accounted for as a purchase and is expected to be accretive
to  earnings  per share  within 12  months.  The first  securitization  of First
Allegiance's  production  is expected  within the last  quarter of 1997 or first
quarter of 1998. Due to the  immateriality  of the impact of this transaction to
the  Company's  consolidated   financial  statements,   pro-forma  financial
statements have not been presented.

                  On January 24, 1997, the Company  consummated  its acquisition
of the Old  National  Bank of  Huntington  in  Huntington,  West  Virginia  (Old
National).  The merger  involved the exchange of 480,917 shares of the Company's
common stock for all of the outstanding shares of Old National. This transaction
was accounted for under the pooling of interests method of accounting.  However,
due to the  immateriality  of the impact of this  transaction  to the  Company's
consolidated  financial  statements,  prior period financial statements have not
been restated.

         NOTE C - PENDING ACQUISITION
                  On  January  8,  1997,  City  National  Bank,  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary,  signed a Letter of Intent to acquire RMI, Ltd., an insurance agency
designed to market insurance products

                                  PAGE 10 OF 37

<PAGE>



and services to select corporate and individual  clients. It is anticipated that
the transaction will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
and will be consummated in the fourth quarter of 1997.  The  acquisition,
subject to the  negotiation of a definitive  acquisition  agreement,  would have
less than a 1% impact on the total assets or net income  reported in the
Company's third  quarter 1997  financial statements.  As a result,  proforma
information has not been  included for the information provided herein. A
director of one of the Company's  subsidiaries is the President and current
owner of RMI, Ltd.

         NOTE D - INCOME TAXES
                  The  consolidated  provision  for  income  taxes is based upon
financial statement  earnings.  The effective tax rate for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, of 35.06% varied from the statutory  federal income tax rate
primarily due to state income taxes and the tax effects of  nontaxable  interest
income and the  amortization  of goodwill.  The effective tax rate has increased
between the two nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 due to the
continued  increase in taxable income combined with the decline in tax-exempt
interest income.

         NOTE E - INVESTMENT RECLASSIFICATION
                  In  June   1997,   the   Company   reclassified   its   entire
held-to-maturity securities portfolio to the available-for-sale  classification.
The securities  transferred  consisted of investment securities with approximate
amortized cost and market value of $46,520,000  and  $46,781,000,  respectively.
This action was taken by the Company to provide  management more  flexibility in
managing the Company's liquidity and interest rate risk.

         NOTE F - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
                  In  the  normal   course  of   business,   there  are  various
commitments and contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit, that are not included

                                  PAGE 11 OF 37

<PAGE>



in  the  consolidated  financial  statements.   These  commitments  approximated
$89,672,000 at September 30, 1997. These arrangements, consisting principally of
unused  lines of credit  issued in the normal  course of  business,  have credit
risks  essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and
are  subject to the  Company's  standard  credit  policies.  Standby  letters of
credit, which total $2,887,000, have historically expired unfunded.

         NOTE G - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
                  On January 1, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards (SFAS) No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and  Extinguishments  of  Liabilities",  which requires that an
entity  recognize  the  financial  and  servicing  assets  it  controls  and the
liabilities it has incurred and  derecognize  financial  assets when control has
been surrendered in accordance with the criteria provided in the Statement.  The
adoption  of SFAS  No.  125 did not  have a  material  impact  on the  Company's
financial  position or results of operations during 1997. The company is further
evaluating the impact it will have in 1998.

                  The Financial  Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement
of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share," (SFAS No. 128)
which establishes new standards for computing and presenting earnings per share.
SFAS No. 128 is effective  for all  financial  statements  issued  subsequent to
December 15, 1997. The basic and diluted  earnings per share computed under SFAS
No. 128 are not anticipated to be materially  different from earnings per common
share presented herein.

                  Also,  during 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board
issued several other new accounting  pronouncements  which will become effective
in 1998. These  pronouncements  include SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information
about Capital Structure";  SFAS No. 130, "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income"; and
SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an

                                  PAGE 12 OF 37

<PAGE>



Enterprise  and  Related  Information".  The  Company is in the process of fully
evaluating  these  new  pronouncements  and  expects  to  adopt  them in 1998 in
accordance  with the  requirements.  Such  adoption  is not  expected  to have a
significant  impact on the  financial  position or results of  operations of the
Company.

         NOTE H - LONG-TERM BORROWINGS
                  Long-term  debt  consists of a $35,000,000  revolving  line of
credit of the Parent  Company  with a  variable  rate based on the lesser of the
adjusted  LIBOR rate plus 1.875% per annum or the  lender's  base rate less .25%
per annum  (7.5313% at  September  30,  1997) due on December  31,  1997.  As of
September 30, 1997, the outstanding  balance was equal to $29,400,000.  Interest
on this obligation is payable quarterly,  and the Parent Company has pledged the
common stock of each of its wholly-owned  banking subsidiaries as collateral for
the revolving credit loan.  Management  intends to refinance this loan according
to the provisions provided in the agreement.

                  Additionally,   one  banking  subsidiary  maintains  long-term
financing from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) in the form of Long-Term  LIBOR
Floaters as follows:
             Amount                       Interest                   Maturity
             Outstanding                  Rate                       Date
             -----------------------------------------------------------------
             $ 10,000,000                 5.60%                      July 2002
             $ 25,000,000                 5.4188%                    July 2002

As of September 30, 1997, the banking subsidiary has maximum available credit of
approximately  $103 million,  which is  collateralized  by a blanket lien on all
residential and multi-family  mortgage loans, and eligible government and agency
securities.

Item 2.

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

         HIGHLIGHTS

         FINANCIAL POSITION
                  Total assets increased $286.3 million or approximately  27.29%
during the first  nine  months of 1997.  Net loans  increased  $73.4  million or
10.63%. Loans held for sale,  consisting primarily of loans received through the
Company's  participation  in a whole loan purchasing  program,  increased $178.4
million or 193.0%.  As of September 30, 1997, the whole loan purchasing  program
loans owned by the Company had an outstanding principal balance of approximately
$240.9  million.  See LOAN PORTFOLIO for further  discussion.  In addition,  the
Company earned  interest income of  approximately  $10,249,000 on the whole loan
purchasing  program loans during the nine months ended  September 30, 1997.  See
NET INTEREST INCOME for further discussion.  The increase in net loans and loans
held for sale was funded  primarily  by an increase in deposits  and  short-term
borrowings   of  $81.7   million  and  $159.7   million,   respectively.   Total
stockholders'  equity  increased  $11.0 million  during the first nine months of
1997 primarily due to the net income  recorded during the period of $9.5 million
less dividends of $3.3 million and the Company's $3.7 million acquisition of Old
National.

         QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997, COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996.
                  The Company  reported net income of  $3,485,000  for the three
months ended  September 30, 1997  compared to net income of  $2,543,000  for the
quarter ended  September 30, 1996.  This  increase of $942,000,  or 37.04%,  was
primarily due to an increase of  $4,456,000 in the Company's  total other income
(excluding securities transactions) during the third quarter of 1997 as compared
to the same period of 1996.  This increase is attributable to an additional $2.6
million  in  mortgage  loan  servicing  fees  and  $288,000  of gain on sales of
originated   mortgage  loans  generated  by  the  Company's  mortgage  servicing
division,  City Mortgage Services. See LOAN SERVICING.  In addition, the Company
recognized a $1 million gain on loan sales under the whole loan purchasing
program and a $550,000 gain on the sale of City Mortgage Corporation.

                  Non-interest  expenses  increased  $4,238,000 or 42.73% during
the third quarter of 1997 as compared to the same period of 1996,  primarily due
to the Company's  expansion of its mortgage  servicing  division.  City Mortgage
Services  incurred  $2.0 million in  expenses,  which  includes  $1.2 million in
personnel  costs,  in  comparison to $364,000 in expenses for the same period of
1996.  In addition,  1997  non-interest  expenses  include  $441,000 in expenses
incurred by Old  National.  Because  prior  periods  were not  restated for this
acquisition,  no  expenses  for this new  subsidiary  are  included  in the 1996
results.  With the overall growth of the Company,  total personnel and occupancy
expenses  have  continued to increase  approximately  $1,016,000  and  $140,000,
respectively, excluding the impact of City Mortgage Services and Old National as
previously discussed.

                  Net  income  for the  third  quarter  also  benefited  from an
increase of $1,759,000  in the  Company's net interest  income during the second
quarter of 1997 as compared to the same

                                  PAGE 15 OF 37

<PAGE>



period of 1996.  See NET INTEREST  INCOME for further  discussion.  Earnings per
share were $.57 and $.46 for the third quarter of 1997 and 1996, respectively.

         NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997, COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996.
                  The Company  reported  net income of  $9,489,000  for the nine
months ended  September 30, 1997  compared to net income of  $7,570,000  for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996. This increase of $1,919,000 or 25.35%, was
primarily due to an increase of $10,496,000 in the Company's  total other income
(excluding  securities  transactions)  during the first  nine  months of 1997 as
compared  to the same  period  of 1996.  This  increase  is  attributable  to an
additional  $7.4 million in mortgage loan servicing fees and $845,000 of gain on
sales of originated  mortgage  loans. In addition,  the Company  recognized a $1
million  gain on the sale of Title I loans  and a  $550,000  gain on the sale of
City Mortgage Corporation.  The Company also generated increased service charges
and credit card fees of $471,000 and $211,000, respectively.

                   Non-interest  expenses increased $10,045,000 or 34.28% during
the first nine months of 1997 as compared to the same period of 1996,  primarily
due to the Company's expansion of its mortgage servicing division. City Mortgage
Services incurred $5.7 million in expenses in comparison to $364,000 in expenses
for the  same  period  of  1996.  In  addition,  non-interest  expenses  include
$1,124,000  in expenses  incurred by Old National  with no expenses for this new
subsidiary  included  in the 1996  results.  Due to the  overall  growth  of the
Company, personnel costs increased $5.7 million, which includes $3.4 million for
City Mortgage  Services and $521,000 for Old National.  Additionally,  occupancy
expenses increased $1,740,000 between

                                  PAGE 16 OF 37

<PAGE>



the two periods, which includes $799,000 for City Mortgage Services and $307,000
for Old National Bank.

                  Net income for the first nine months also  benefitted  from an
increase of $3,751,000  in the  Company's  net interest  income during the first
nine months of 1997 as compared to the same period of 1996.  Earnings  per share
were $1.56 and $1.36 for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997 and 1996,
respectively.

SELECTED RATIOS
                  The return on average  assets  (ROA) for the third  quarter of
1997 was 1.15%  compared  to .94% in the third  quarter  of 1996.  The return on
average  shareholder's  equity  (ROE) for the third  quarter  of 1997 was 15.46%
compared  to 13.13% ROE for the third  quarter of 1996.  For the nine  months of
1997,  ROA was 1.08%  compared to .94% for the nine months  ended 1996.  ROE was
14.49% and 13.32% for the first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively.

                  The  dividend  payout  ratio of 31.58% for the  quarter  ended
September 30, 1997 represents a decrease of 6.29% from the dividend payout ratio
of 33.70% for the quarter ended  September 30, 1996.  The dividend  payout ratio
was 34.62% and 34.19% for the nine  months  ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  Since 1988, the Company has paid dividends on a quarterly  basis,
and expects to continue to do so in the future.

                  The Company  continues to grant loans to  customers  generally
within the market areas of its  subsidiaries.  However,  with the acquisition of
First  Allegiance  in the fourth  quarter  of 1997,  the  Company  will begin to
originate  junior lien mortgage  loans on a nationwide level. Currently, First
Allegiance is conducting business in 30 states across the country. First
Allegiance will generally  originate  higher  loan-to-value  debt  consolidation
loans and other junior lien mortgage  loans.  Similarly,  the Company's  banking
subsidiaries will also begin to offer such products in their respective markets.
These loans are expected to either be securitized by the Company or sold within
90-180 days to independent third parties.

                  In  November  1996,  the Company  restructured  its whole loan
purchasing   program  and  began   purchasing   the  loans  directly  from  loan
originators. As a result of this restructuring,  the Company currently earns the
stated note rate of the loans (a weighted average of 13.07% at

                                  PAGE 18 OF 37

<PAGE>



September  30, 1997) during the 30 to 90 days that the loans  typically are held
by the Company. Prior to restructuring,  the Company received interest income on
the loans pursuant to established  loan purchasing  agreements with rate sharing
provisions.

LOAN SERVICING
                  Mortgage  loans  serviced  for others are not  included in the
accompanying  consolidated balance sheets. They consist primarily of FHA Title I
home  improvement  loans and debt  consolidation  loans  secured by second  lien
mortgages.  The unpaid principal  balances of mortgage loans serviced for others
was  $919,501,000  and $911,775,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively.  The unpaid  principal  balances of  intercompany  mortgage  loans
serviced was $207,513,000 at September 30, 1997.

                  Mortgage loan servicing rights of $1,634,000 and $1,019,000 at
September  30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,  respectively,  are included in other
assets  in the  accompanying  balance  sheets.  Amortization  of  mortgage  loan
servicing rights approximated $246,000 and $210,000 during the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively.

ASSET QUALITY AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
                  The following table summarizes the Company's risk elements for
the periods  ending  September  30, 1997 and December 31,  1996.  The  Company's
coverage ratio of nonperforming  assets and potential problem loans continues to
be strong at 95% as of September 30, 1997.

                  With the  increased  return  on  investment  earned  under the
restructured  whole loan  purchasing  program,  there is also an increase in the
risk of loss due to delinquencies and

                                  PAGE 19 OF 37

<PAGE>



uncollectibility.  As a result,  management has increased its 1997 provision for
possible loan losses to provide for potentially  uncollectible loans inherent in
the pools of loans acquired in this program. As of September 30, 1997, accruing
loans past due 90 days or more increased $2.3 million since the period ended
December 31, 1996 primarily due to the increase of $203.8 million in loans
purchased under the whole loan purchasing program. The decrease in the coverage
ratio of nonperforming assets and potential problem loans decreased due to the
significant increase in purchases. Under the whole loan purchasing program, FHA
Title I loans are insured up to 90% subject to the availability of FHA reserves.
Upon claim payment under the FHA Title I program of such loans, in addition to
the insured principal payment, accrued interest is paid for the period between
default date and claim file date at the note rate for the first 30 days and 7%
thereafter, up to a maximum of 270 days.


                  Management  is of the  opinion  that  the  allowance  for loan
losses is  adequate  to provide  for  probable  future  losses  inherent  in the
portfolio.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

                  The Company's cash and cash  equivalents,  represented by cash
and due from  banks and  overnight  federal  funds  sold,  is a  product  of its
operating, investing and financing activities. These activities are set forth in
the  City  Holding  Company  Consolidated  Statements  of  Cash  Flows  included
elsewhere  herein.  Cash  was  used  in  operating  activities  in  each  period
presented,  primarily for loans  originated for sale and purchases of loans held
for sale. Net cash was used in investing  activities during the third quarter of
1997 due  primarily  to funding the  Company's  loan growth and the  purchase of
securities.  Net cash was used in investing  activities during the third quarter
of 1996 due  primarily to the purchase of  securities.  The net cash provided by
financing  activities  in the  respective  periods is a result of an increase in
interest-bearing  deposits.  In the third quarter of 1997,  financing activities
also provided cash due to the increase in short-term borrowings to fund the loan
growth.

                  The Company seeks to maintain a strong  liquidity  position to
reduce interest rate risk, which is the susceptibility of assets and liabilities
to decline in value as a result of changes in general market interest rates. The
Company  minimizes this risk through asset and liability  management,  where the
goal is to optimize  earnings  while  managing  interest rate risk.  The Company
measures this interest rate risk through  interest  sensitivity  gap analysis as
illustrated in the following  table.  At September 30, 1997, the one year period
shows a negative gap (liability  sensitive) of $362 million.  This analysis is a
"static  gap"  presentation  and  movements  in  deposit  rates  offered  by the
Company's  subsidiary banks lag behind movements in market rates. Such time lags
affect the  repricing  frequency of many items on the Company's  balance  sheet.
Accordingly,  the  sensitivity of deposits to changes in market rates may differ
significantly from the related

                                  PAGE 22 OF 37

<PAGE>



contractual  terms. The table is first presented without adjustment for expected
repricing  behavior.  Then, as presented in the  "management  adjustment"  line,
these balances have been notionally  distributed over the first three periods to
reflect those  portions of such accounts that are expected to reprice fully with
market rates over the respective periods.  The distribution of the balances over
the repricing  periods  represents an aggregation of such allocations by each of
the  affiliate  banks,  and is  based  upon  historical  experience  with  their
individual  markets  and  customers.  Management  expects to  continue  the same
pricing  methodology  in response to market rate  changes;  however,  management
adjustments may change as customer  preferences,  competitive market conditions,
liquidity,  and loan growth change. Also presented in the management  adjustment
line  are  loan  prepayment  assumptions  which  may  differ  from  the  related
contractual  term of the loans.  These balances have been  distributed  over the
four periods to reflect those loans that are expected to be repaid in full prior
to their maturity date. After management adjustments, the table shows a negative
gap in the  one  year  period  of $135  million.  A  negative  gap  position  is
advantageous   when  interest   rates  are  falling   because   interest-bearing
liabilities are being repriced at lower rates and in greater volume, which has a
positive  effect  on  net  interest  income.   Consequently,   the  Company  has
experienced  a decline in its net  interest  margin  during the past year and is
somewhat  vulnerable  to a rapid  rise in  interest  rates  during  1997.  These
declines in net interest  margin did not translate into declines in net interest
income because of increases in the volume of interest-earning assets.

                  The Company's  net interest  margin is effected by a number of
factors,  including economic  conditions  generally,  the level of the Company's
participation  in its whole  loan  purchasing  program,  Federal  Reserve  Board
economic policies, demand for loans and deposits,

                                  PAGE 23 OF 37

<PAGE>



and  competition  with  other  financial  institutions.  Changes in any of these
factors could reduce the Company's net interest margin.

                  There   are  no  known   trends,   demands,   commitments   or
uncertainties  that have resulted or are reasonably likely to result in material
changes in liquidity.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
                  As a bank holding company,  City Holding Company is subject to
regulation by the Federal  Reserve  Board under the Bank Holding  Company Act of
1956.  In  January  1989,  the  Federal  Reserve  published  risk-based  capital
guidelines in final form which are  applicable to bank holding  companies.  Such
guidelines define items in the calculation of risk-weighted assets. At September
30,  1997,  the  regulatory   minimum  ratio  of  qualified   total  capital  to
risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet items, such as standby
letters of credit)  is 8  percent.  At least half of the total  capital is to be
comprised of "Tier 1 capital", or the Company's common stockholders' equity, and
minority interest in consolidated subsidiary, net of intangibles.  The remainder
("Tier 2 capital") may consist of certain  other  prescribed  instruments  and a
limited amount of loan loss reserves.

                  In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum
leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to quarterly average tangible assets)  guidelines
for bank holding  companies.  These guidelines  provide for a minimum ratio of 3
percent  for bank  holding  companies  that  meet  certain  specified  criteria,
including that they have the highest  regulatory  rating. All other bank holding
companies  will be required to  maintain a leverage  ratio of 3 percent  plus an
additional  cushion  of a least 100 to 200 basis  points.  The  guidelines  also
provide  that  banking  organizations  experiencing  internal  growth  or making
acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially
above the minimum supervisory levels, without significant reliance on intangible
assets.

                  The following  table presents  comparative  capital ratios and
related dollar amounts of capital for the Company:

         Leverage (dollar/ratio)              48,238/4.00        43,872/4.00

                  The strong  capital  position of the Company is  indicative of
management's emphasis on asset quality and a history of retained net income. The
ratios enable the Company to continually  pursue  acquisitions  and other growth
opportunities.  Improvements  in  operating  results and a  consistent  dividend
program,  coupled with an effective  management of credit risk,  have been,  and
will be, the key elements in maintaining the Company's present capital position.
As of September 30, 1997, the ratios reflect the effect of the Company's
increased participation  in the whole loan  purchasing  program.  The balance of
the whole loan purchasing program loans (which are 100% risk-weighted) were
$240,869,000 and $37,043,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively. See LOAN PORTFOLIO.

                  The  Company  does  not   anticipate   any  material   capital
expenditures in 1997. The continued expansion of the Company's Operations Center
and mortgage loan servicing  division will be funded by the Company's  long-term
debt.  See  NOTE  H  for  further  discussion.  Earnings  from  subsidiary  bank
operations are expected to remain adequate to fund payment of stockholders'

                                  PAGE 26 OF 37

<PAGE>



dividends and normal internal growth. In management's opinion,  subsidiary banks
have the  capability  to upstream  sufficient  dividends to meet the normal cash
requirements of the Company.

NET INTEREST INCOME
                  Net interest income, on a fully federal  tax-equivalent basis,
improved  from  the  third  quarter  of 1996  to the  third  quarter  of 1997 by
approximately  $1,745,000 due to an increase in net earning assets. Net yield on
earning assets  increased  between the  respective  periods from 4.69% to 4.79%.
Earning  asset  yields  increased  23 basis  points (100 basis  points equal one
percent) to 8.85%,  and the cost of  interest-bearing  liabilities  increased 18
basis points to 4.68%.  The $2,716,000  decrease in net interest income due to a
change  in the  rate,  as shown  in the  following  table,  was  coupled  with a
$4,461,000  increase in net interest  income due to a change in the volume.  The
major component of this favorable volume change was increased average loans.

                  Net interest income, on a fully federal  tax-equivalent basis,
improved from the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 to the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 by approximately $3,707,000 due to an increase in net earning
assets.  Net yield on earning  assets  increased  between  periods from 4.79% to
4.83%, as earning asset yields  increased 8 basis points to 8.75%,  and the cost
of interest bearing liabilities  increased 8 basis points to 4.53%. The $192,000
increase  in net  interest  income due to a change in the rate,  as shown in the
following table,  was coupled with a $3,515,000  increase in net interest income
due to a change in the volume.  The major  component  of this  favorable  volume
change was increased average loans.
