COBANCORP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
JUNE 30, 1997

NOTE A -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of CoBancorp Inc. (the "Corporation") and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, PREMIERBank & Trust ("Premier") and Jefferson Savings Bank
("Jefferson"). 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 necessary for a
fair presentation have been made and that all adjustments were of a normal
recurring nature.

CASH EQUIVALENTS: For purpose 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.

RECLASSIFICATIONS: Certain amounts in the 1996 consolidated financial statements
have been reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation.

NOTE B -- ACQUISITION

On February 27, 1997, the Corporation acquired all of the outstanding shares of
Jefferson, an Ohio-chartered savings association located in Jefferson, Ohio,
for cash in the amount of $6,733,000, with additional consideration of $649,000
attributable to certain favorable tax benefits (confirmed by an I.R.S. Private
Letter Ruling dated May 31, 1996). The  transaction was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting. The purchase price allocation, which may be
revised, resulted in a write-up of assets to estimated fair value of
approximately $2,432,000. This amount included approximately $919,000 which was
assigned to goodwill. Jefferson's results of operations are included in the
Corporation's consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition.
Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of
the acquisition is not material to the consolidated results of operations.
Jefferson, with assets of approximately $61 million, operates in three branch
locations in Madison County, Ohio. Jefferson remains a separate savings
association subsidiary of the Corporation.

NOTE C -- LOANS

The Corporation applies the provision of FASB Statement No. 114, "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" (as amended by FASB Statement No. 118). At
June 30, 1997, and December 31, 1996, there were no loans for which the 
Corporation was required to establish a valuation allowance under the Statement
114 criteria.

COBANCORP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
JUNE 30, 1997

NOTE D -- EARNINGS PER SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, "Earnings Per Share," which is required to be adopted on December 31, 1997.
At that time, the Corporation will be required to change the method currently
used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the
new requirements for calculating basic earnings per share, the dilutive effect
of stock options will be excluded. The impact on basic and fully diluted
earnings per share is not expected to be material.

NOTE E -- REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME AND DISCLOSING SEGMENT
          INFORMATION

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" and Statement No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," both of which will be
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Corporation
will adopt Statement No. 130 and Statement No. 131 as of January 1, 1998. The
impact of adopting these Statements is not expected to be material.

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. In connection with any forward
looking statements made by the Registrant, the following disclosure is made:
Actual results could differ materially from any such forward looking statements
for a variety of factors including sharp and/or rapid changes in interest rates,
significant changes in the economy, or significant changes in accounting, tax or
regulatory practices or requirements.

EARNINGS RESULTS Net income increased slightly over the previous year. For the
first six months of 1997, net income was $2,963,000, compared to $2,920,000 for
the same period in 1996. Earnings per share were $0.86 for the first six months
of 1997 and $0.85 for the same period in 1996. For the second quarter, net
income was $1,676,000 or $0.49 per share compared to $1,634,000 or $0.47 per
share in the prior year. The changes affecting net income are explained in
detail in the following sections.

NET INTEREST INCOME The net interest margin on a fully taxable-equivalent basis
was 5.30 percent for the first six months of 1997, compared to 5.12 percent for
the same period one year ago. Net interest income for the first six months of
1997 amounted to $15,131,000, up significantly from $13,857,000 for the
comparable period in 1996. Second quarter net interest income was $7,792,000 and
$7,186,000 in 1997 and 1996, respectively. 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 fully-taxable equivalent net interest income of $1,274,000, or
9.2 percent, is due primarily to an increase in interest-earning assets. This
increase was partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing liabilities.
The Corporation also benefitted from an increase in the overall yield on earning
assets, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased slightly.

Average interest-earning assets were $566,392,000 and $538,862,000 for the first
six months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. Average interest-bearing liabilities
for the same periods were $494,219,000 and $462,747,000, respectively.

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:

NONINTEREST INCOME Total noninterest income, exclusive of securities gains,
increased $418,000 or 13.7 percent in the first half of 1997 when compared to
the same period in 1996.  The second quarter of 1997 represented an increase of
$145,000 or 7.8 percent over the prior year. Jefferson contributed
approximately $85,000 of noninterest income since it was acquired on February
28, 1997. Income from trust activities increased to $828,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997, up 17.9 percent from the prior year. Gains and losses on
the sale of investment securities also impact comparisons. Security
transactions resulted in net gains of $174,000 and $300,000 in the first half
of 1997 and 1996, respectively. The comparable amounts for the second quarter   
were $187,000 and $5,000 for 1997 and 1996 respectively. During the second
quarter of 1997, Premier sold its credit card portfolio (approximately
$2,605,000 of loans) and realized a gain of approximately $400,000.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE For the first six months of 1997, salaries, wages and
benefits expense increased $626,000 over the same period for 1996. In the
second quarter of 1997, the increase was $373,000, of which approximately 40%
was a result of the Jefferson acquisition, while the remainder is a combination
of added staff for new offices and normal salary adjustments. The increase in
occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses was due to the acquisition of
Jefferson and the opening of additional Premier facilities.

Other significant components of other noninterest expenses are presented in the
following table (in thousands of dollars).

LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES At June 30,1997, and December 31, 1996,     
there were no loans for which a valuation allowance was required under
Statement 114. The allowance for loan losses, therefore, included no allocation
for such loans.

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
uncollectable by management and charged against the allowance.

Potential problem loans are those loans which are on the Bank's "watch list."
These loans are, or could become, nonperforming. This "watch list" is reviewed
monthly and adjusted for changing conditions. Loans on the watch list at June
30, 1997, totaled $7.9 million, or 1.8 percent of total outstanding loans.


<PAGE>   11


At June 30, 1997, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was
1.06 percent compared to 1.20 percent at December 31, 1996. The provision for
loan losses was $150,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1997, and $100,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996.

The following table contains information relative to loan loss experience for
the six months ended June 30, 1997, and the year ended December 31, 1996 (in

NONPERFORMING LOANS Nonaccrual loans at June 30, 1997, totaled $2,503,000,
compared to $1,707,000 at December 31, 1996. This increase includes $1,119,000
in nonaccruing loans attributable to Jefferson. The category of accruing loans
past due 90 days or more totaled $85,000 at June 30, 1997 and $85,000 at
December 31, 1996. Additionally, there was $52,500 in other real estate owned.
The balance in the allowance for loan losses was $4,567,000 at June 30, 1997
compared to $4,092,000 at December 31, 1996.

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 and past due loans (in thousands of
dollars).
