                 FIRST INDEPENDENCE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                         NOTES  TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 JUNE 30, 1996


1.     The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1996, the related
consolidated statements of income of the three month period, and the statement
of cash flows for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are
unaudited.

2.     In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary
for a fair presentation of such financial statements have been included.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

3.     The consolidated statements include the accounts of First Independence
Corporation ( the "Corporation") and its wholly owned subsidiary, First
Independence National Bank of Detroit
(the "Bank").

4.     Under FAS 114 and 118, which the Bank adopted effective January 1, 1995,
the Bank considers non-performing loans (past due 90 days or more) or (matured
but not yet rewritten) and non-accrual loans (on which no interest income is
accrued) as "impaired" loans because there is a question as to whether all
interest and principal will be paid according to the contract. Some loans are
considered "other impaired" loans because of special circumstances that raise
questions about their complete collectibility in accordance with the note,
although thay are not non-performing or non-accrual loans.  The credit of the
borrower and the value of the collateral for example, could provide a basis for
a decision to consider a loan "other impaired" even if it is performing and
accruing interest.  The measurement of impaired loans is generally based on the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical
effective interest rate, except that all collateral-dependant loans are
measured for impairment based on the fair value of collateral.  The adopting of
SFAS 114 did not result in any additional provision for loan losses as of
January 1, 1995.

The allowance for possible losses on loans is maintained at a level believed
adequate by management to absorb potential losses from specific assets
identified as having greater than a normal risk of loss as well as losses from
the remainder or the portfolio.  Management's determination of the level of the
allowance is based upon evaluation of the portfolio, past experience, current
economic conditions, size and composition of the portfolio, collateral location
and values, cash flow positions, industry concentrations, delinquencies and
other relevant factors.

Interest that would have been accrued on the non-accrual loans at June 30,
1996, had they been on accrual status would have been approximately $99,000.

5.     All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

6.     In May, 1993, a jury verdict was entered against the Corporation, a
nonoperating subsidiary of the Bank, certain directors and another former
officer thereof, in the amount of $320,000, in a suit filed by a former officer
of the Bank alleging wrongful termination of his employment and retaliatory
discharge.  After several post-trial hearings, a judgment was entered on the
verdict in October, 1994.  Although an accrual in the amount of the judgment is
reflected in the financial statements, the Corporation has appealed the
judgment and is vigorously pursuing a reversal.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Net Income for the second quarter of 1996  was $171,052 , or $.39 per share,
compared to $73,134, or $.11 per share for the second quarter of 1995.  For the
first six months of 1996, Net Income was $163,321, or $.23 per share, compared
to $216,940, or $.42 per share.  The decrease for the first six months of 1996
resulted primarily from higher loan provision in 1996 ($407,750) compared to
1995 ($76,000).  The 1996 increase in the provision resulted from unauthorized
and fictitious loans made by a consumer loan officer with no lending authority;
in late 1995 and in January 1996.

EARNINGS SUMMARY--QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

The Company experienced a consolidated net income for the second quarter of
$171,052, as compared to $73,134 net income for the second quarter of 1995.
Net interest income increased $128,865 from the comparable period in 1995.
This was a result of average earning assets  increasing by $8,261,000 of higher
quality assets and net interest margin increasing from 5.47 percent in the
second quarter of 1995 to 5.55 percent in the second quarter of 1996.

Other operating income for the second quarter was about $56,000 lower than in
the second quarter of 1995 as a result of a $76,000 decline in mortgage
brokerage fees offset by increases in miscellaneous fees received by the Bank
for depository  and funds management services.  Other operating expenses were
$70,000 lower in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the second quarter of
1995.  The decline in operating expenses was attributable to a $40,000
reduction in FDIC assessments and $20,000 reduction in data processing costs.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

LIQUIDITY

Deposits at June 30, 1996 totaled $85,582,991 while Federal Funds Sold were
$11,200,000 (13.1% of total deposits).  Total securities available-for-sale at
June 30, 1996, were $15,221,319 (17.8% of total deposits).  In addition,
$8,271,000 (9.7% of total deposits) of the Bank's $32 million of securities
will mature within one year.  Thus, the bank is very liquid and management
believes that it is capable of funding loans or deposit withdrawals with a June
30, 1996, liquidity ratio of more than 43%.

INVESTMENTS

The Bank had $32,442,631 of investment securities at June 30, 1996, compared to
$29,141,710 of such securities at December 31, 1995.  The increase is comprised
principally of securities available-for-sale which were $15.2 million at June
30, 1996 compared to 12.6 million at December 31, 1995.  The following is a
summary of the maturities and weighted average yields from the investment
portfolio at June 30, 1996.  Yields are not calculated on a tax equivalent
basis.

</TABLE>


At June 30, 1996 the Bank had $4,182,000 of loans that were nonperforming.
Nonperforming loans include non-accrual loans, loans with principal or interest
past due 90 days or more; and loans that have matured and are being extended or
rewritten after their stated maturity date.

                                       9


<PAGE>   10



Non-accrual loans are those nonperforming or other impaired loans on which the
Bank does not accrue periodic interest income.  Loans are placed on non-accrual
status when principal or interest is in default for a period of 90 days or more
unless the loan is in the process of collection and is well secured so that
delinquent principal and interest would be expected to be satisfied from the
collateral.  Nonperforming loans and non-accrual loans are all considered
"impaired loans" under SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan", and SFAS 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income
Recognition and Disclosure."  At June 30, 1996, total nonperforming and
impaired loans amounted to 9.13% of the aggregate loans at June 30, 1996,
compared to 7.01% at the end of 1995.  This was due to the unauthorized
activities in the loan department in late 1995 and in January 1996.

The table at footnote 4 to the Notes to Financial Statements shows information
concerning nonperforming, non-accrual and other impaired loans as of June 30,
1996, allocated according to loan type.

The amount of interest income that would have been accrued on the loans on
non-accrual status at June 30, 1996, had those loans remained current was
approximately $99,000.  No interest was actually accrued on those loans during
the quarter before thay were placed on non-accrual status.

At June 30, 1996, there were no significant loans other than those included in
the above table, for which information was known that caused management to have
serious doubts as to the ability of borrowers to comply with loan repayment
terms.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $1,308,829 at June 30, 1996, compared to
the 1995 year end balance of $1,163,834.  The allowance for loan losses
represent 2.85% of loans compared with 2.60% at December 31, 1995.

The allowance for loan losses was 33.1% of the aggregate of non-accrual loans
and loans delinquent 90 days or more at June 30, 1996.  At December 31, 1995,
the allowance was 40.1% of such loans.  The 1996 percentage is slightly lower
than at the end of 1995 because of loan charge-offs in the first quarter of
1996.  The total amount of the allowance for loan losses is based on
management's evaluation of the portfolio, past experience, economic conditions,
composition of the portfolio, collateral location and values, cash flow
positions of the borrowers, delinquencies and other factors deemed relevant.
The allowance for loan losses, in management's opinion, is adequate taking all
such considerations into account.

The loan review system and charge-off policy assist management in identifying
problem loans and credit deterioration earlier than in the past and continuing
implementation of the loan review system will improve this process further.
Effective collection efforts, when implemented early, generally result in lower
losses.  Management expects this trend to resume as a result of recent
strenghtening of the collection department.  Loans charged off in the second
quarter of 1996 aggregated $84,000.  The charge offs were part of the Bank's
continuing effort to address problem loans in the loan portfolio and improve
the quality of the loan assets.  Collection efforts in the second quarter
resulted in recoveries of $21,000 on loans previously charged off.

Capital Resources

At June 30, 1996, the ratio of equity capital to average assets of the Bank was
5.65% and in compliance with the Comptroller of Currency requirement of 5.50%.
The risk-based Tier 1 capital ratio at June 30, 1996, was 10.70% and the Bank's
total capital ratio  on June 30, 1996, was 11.96%.  These ratios were slightly
higher compared to December 31, 1995, when they were 5.49%, 10.54%, and 11.80%
respectively.

As a result of the losses experienced in 1995 and the first quarter of 1996,
the bank is not able to pay dividends to the Corporation.  It will have to earn
approximately $365,000 in order to eliminate the deficit in its retained
earnings account.  Thereafter, it may pay  dividends legally from earnings
subject to prior approval of the Comptroller of the Currency until the
Comptroller Agreement described in the 10-KSB annual report is terminated.
Thus, the Corporation does not have the resources to pay interest on its Senior
Notes and cumulative dividends on its Class A and Class B Preferred Stock.

The Corporation in June, 1996, requested the holders of its Class A and Class B
Preferred Stock and of its $900,000 of Senior Notes for a waiver of defaults in
payment of interest on the Senior Notes and dividends on the Class A and Class
B Preferred Stock during 1996 as a result of the loan department losses.  The
waiver would not forgive any dividends or interest due in 1996 but would allow
the Corporation to make the payment any time in 1997 without penalty.  The
Series 1994-1 Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive dividends, but a 4%
dividend is required to be paid on the series 1994-1 Stock before any dividends
may be paid on the Common Stock.
