COBANCORP INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
MARCH 31, 1994


NOTE A

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:  The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of CoBancorp Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
PremierBank & Trust.  All material intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated.

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.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.  It is the opinion of
management that all adjustments made to the unaudited interim financial
statements were of a normal recurring nature.

CASH EQUIVALENTS:  For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, cash
equivalents include amounts due from banks and federal funds sold. 
Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for periods of less than
thirty days.

PER SHARE AMOUNTS:  All per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect
the four-for-three stock split in February 1994 and the four-for-three
stock split in July 1993.

RECLASSIFICATIONS:  Certain amounts in the 1993 consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the 1994 presentation.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations


The following discussion focuses on information about CoBancorp Inc.'s 
financial condition and results of operations which is not otherwise
apparent from the consolidated financial statements attached.

EARNINGS RESULTS  Net income increased 20.9 percent to $1,217,000 for the
first three months of 1994, from the $1,006,000 earned in the same period
of 1993.  Earnings per share increased to $.36, up from $.31 per share in
the first three months of the prior year.

NET INTEREST INCOME  The net interest margin on a fully taxable-equivalent
basis was 5.50 percent for the first three months of 1994, compared to
5.46 percent one year ago.  Net interest income for the first three months
of 1996 amounted to $6,112,000 compared to $5,753,000 in 1993.  These
amounts reflect net interest income adjusted to a fully taxable-equivalent
basis by recognizing the tax effect of interest earned on tax-exempt
securities and loans.

The increase in net interest income of $359,000 is attributable primarily
to an increase in earning assets and to lower interest rates on
interest-bearing deposits.  These factors were partially offset by a
decrease in the yield on earning assets and, to a lesser extent, an
increase in interest-bearing deposits.

The following table sets forth for the periods indicated a summary of the
changes in interest income and interest expense on a fully
taxable-equivalent basis resulting from changes in volume and changes in
rates for the major components of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities:

NET OTHER EXPENSES  Total net other expense (total other expense less
total other income) has increased $448,000, to $4,059,000 for the first
three months of 1994, compared to $3,611,000 the previous year.  Salaries,
wages and benefits, occupancy, and taxes other than income and payroll
have increased compared to last year.  The Corporation has also
experienced increases in professional fees, insurance expense (including
FDIC insurance) and data processing costs.  These increased expenses have
been partially offset by a decrease in the provision for loan losses. 
Expense containment remains a focus of the bank, in addition to enhancing
productivity.  

NONPERFORMING LOANS  Nonaccrual loans were slightly above year-end 1993
levels, and at March 31, 1994, totaled $1,438,000, compared to $1,318,000
at December 31, 1993.  The category of accruing loans past due 90 days or
more totaled $157,000 at March 31, 1994, and $141,000 at December 31,
1993.  The balance in the allowance for loan losses was $5,373,000 at
March 31, 1994, compared to $5,226,000 at December 31, 1993.

Except for installment and credit cards, loans on which interest and/or
principal is 90 days or more past due are placed on nonaccrual status and
any previously accrued but uncollected interest is reversed from income. 
Such loans remain on a cash basis for recognition of income until both
interest and principal are current.  Installment and credit card loans
past due greater than 120 days are charged off and previously accrued but
uncollected interest is reversed from income.

The following table summarizes nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans
(in thousands of dollars).

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND LOAN CHARGE-OFFS  In determining the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management evaluates past loan
loss experience, present and anticipated economic conditions and the
credit worthiness of its borrowers.  The allowance for loan losses is
increased by provisions charged against income and recoveries of loans
previously charged off.  The allowance is decreased by loans that are
determined uncollectible by management and charged against the allowance.

Potential problem loans are those loans which are on the Bank's "watch
list."  These loans exhibit characteristics that could cause the loans to
become nonperforming or require restructuring in the future.  This "watch
list" is reviewed monthly and adjusted for changing conditions.

At the end of the first three months, the allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of loans was 1.80 percent in 1994, and 2.17 percent in 1993. 
The provision for loan losses was $125,000 in the three months ended March
31, 1994, and $500,000 for the same period of 1993.  Additionally,
$100,000 was provided in the first quarter of 1993 to establish an
allowance for possible losses in other real estate owned.

The following table contains information relative to loan loss experience
for the three months ended March 31, 1994, and the year ended December 31,
1993.
