Independent Auditors' Report
The Plan Administrator
The Lorain National Bank
Sponsor of The Lorain National Bank
Stock Purchase Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for
distribution to participants of The Lorain National Bank Stock Purchase
Plan (Plan) as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements
of changes in assets available for distribution to participants for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the assets available for distribution to
participants of the Plan as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes
in those assets for the years then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules
of assets held for investment purposes at December 31, 1999 and
reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 1999 are
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required
part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information
required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting
and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects
in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE LORAIN NATIONAL BANK
STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1999 and 1998
(1) Description of the Plan
The following description of The Lorain National Bank Stock Purchase
Plan (Plan) provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the
Plan's provisions.
(a) General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by The Lorain
National Bank (Bank), a wholly owned subsidiary of LNB Bancorp,
Inc., covering substantially all employees of the Bank. An
employee is eligible to participate in the Plan on the January
1 or July 1 after the attainment of age 21 and completion of
one year of service, as defined in the Plan. The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Under the terms of the Plan, the Investment and Trust
Services Division of the Bank acts as trustee for the Plan and,
as such, manages a trust fund which includes all of the Plan's
assets. The Plan stipulates that employer and employee
contributions will be invested in units of the LNB Bancorp,
Inc. stock fund which primarily consists of common stock of LNB
Bancorp, Inc. and short-term cash investments.
(b) Bank Contributions
The Bank is required to contribute to the Plan for each month,
out of its current or accumulated earnings only, an amount
equal to 50% of the participants' contributions for each
month.
(c) Participants' Contributions
A participant can make, through payroll deductions,
contributions of one (1) to six (6) percent (in whole integers)
of their compensation. Changes in the amount of compensation
paid to a participant will automatically effect a change in the
amount of the contribution.
(d) Vesting of Contributions
Each participant has a fully vested interest in the Bank's
and their contributions as of the date payments are made.
(e) Withdrawals While Employed
At any time, subject to certain restrictions, a participant may
elect to withdraw all or a portion of their units.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1999 and 1998
(f) Distributions Upon Termination of Employment
A participant whose employment terminates by reason of
retirement on their early retirement date or on their normal
retirement date, receives all units credited to their account.
The participant may elect distribution of the units either in a
single distribution or in annual, semiannual, quarterly, or
monthly installments.
A participant whose employment is terminated for any reason
other than those designated above may receive a single
distribution of all units credited to the participant.
(g) Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Bank
has the right to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions
set forth in ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, the
assets of the Plan will be allocated as prescribed by ERISA and
its related regulations.
(h) Plan Administrator
The Plan Administrator is the President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Bank.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been
prepared under the accrual method of accounting.
(b) Investment
The fair value of the investment and changes therein are
determined through the use of current quoted market values.
Purchases and sales are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual method of
accounting.
(c) Use 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, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
<PAGE>33
(d) Payment of Benefits
Benefit payments to participants are recorded when paid.

During the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Plan's
investment (including investments bought, sold, and held during the
year) appreciated (depreciated) in value by $(716,203) and $18,916,
respectively.
(4) Federal Income Taxes
The Internal Revenue Service issued its latest determination letter
on June 24, 1996 which stated that the Plan and its underlying Trust,
as designed, qualify under the applicable provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the
determination letter. In the opinion of the Plan Administrator, the
Plan and its underlying Trust have operated within the terms of the
Plan and remain qualified under the applicable provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code.
As long as the Plan continues to be qualified under present federal
income tax laws and regulations, participants will not be taxed on
Bank contributions or on investment earnings on such contributions
at the time such contributions and investment earnings are received
by the Trustee, but may be subject to tax thereon at such time as
they receive distributions under the Plan.
(5) Administrative Expenses
The administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the Bank.
(6) Party-in-interest Transactions
The following is a summary of transactions in common stock of LNB
Bancorp, Inc., 100% owner of the Bank, during the year ended
