ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On May 31, 1996, Registrant and Marine Bancorp, Inc.
("Marine") of Springfield, Illinois, executed a share
purchase agreement for Registrant to purchase Marine's
ownership in The First National Bank of Wayne City ("FNB"),
Wayne City, Illinois. The share purchase agreement
conditions the transaction upon the approval of all
applicable regulatory authorities.
This acquisition is anticipated to close in the third
quarter and is to be accounted for under the purchase
accounting method.
FNB is a national banking association incorporated in
1902 under the laws of the United States of America. As of
December 31, 1995, FNB reported assets of $52,000,000 and
shareholders' equity of $6,000,000.
The agreement provides for Registrant to pay cash for
the 98.29 percent of outstanding shares of common stock of
FNB owned by Marine.
It is not anticipated that Registrant will elect to
borrow funds in connection with this acquisition. However,
if Registrant does elect to borrow, the source of these
funds will be Registrant's affiliate's correspondent banks.
There currently exists no material relationship
between Registrant and Marine or FNB, including any
director, officer, or affiliate relationships.
