(e)  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of United Bancorp,
Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine month
period ending September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2 - LOANS HELD FOR SALE
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122,
"Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" ("SFAS No. 122") at January 1, 1996.
This Statement changes the accounting for mortgage servicing rights retained by
the loan originator. Under the Statement, if the originator sells or
securitizes mortgage loans and retains the related servicing rights, the total
cost of the mortgage loan is allocated between the loan (without the servicing
rights) and the servicing rights, based on their relative fair values. The
costs allocated to mortgage servicing rights are recorded as a separate asset
and amortized in proportion to, and over the life of, the net servicing income.

The Company currently retains servicing on almost all loans originated and sold
into the secondary market. Accordingly, the Statement applies to most loan
sales. In general, this Statement increases the amount of income recognized
when loans are sold and reduces the amount of income recognized during the
servicing period.

The carrying value of the mortgage servicing is periodically evaluated for
impairment.  Impairment is recognized using the fair value of individual
stratum of servicing rights based on the underlying risk characteristics of the
serviced loan portfolio. Substantially all notes originated for sale are fixed
rate loans from Lenawee county which are sold to FNMA.  Impairment evaluation
is based on interest rates, prepayment rates, remaining term and other factors.

ended September 30, 1996 follows:

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

This discussion provides information about the consolidated financial condition
and results of operations of United Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary, United
Bank & Trust ("Bank") for the three and nine month periods ending September 30,
1996.

                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

SECURITIES
Investment balances remained flat during the third quarter of 1996, although
balances have increased from December 31, 1995. Continued strong loan growth
combined with flat deposit growth continues to be the largest single factor
limiting investment growth.

The mix of the investment portfolio remained relatively unchanged from December
31 and September 30, 1995.

LOANS
Loan balances continued to enjoy strong growth during the third quarter of
1996, following the trend of the first two quarters of 1996. Both business and
personal loans increased during the quarter and year to date, while residential
mortgages continued to remained flat as a result of continued sale of loans on
the secondary market. Clients continue to move from variable rate to fixed rate
loans, resulting in a greater number of loans being sold on the secondary
market rather than being retained in the portfolio.

The mix of the portfolio has remained relatively unchanged from prior periods,
although the general trend is toward an increased percentage of personal and
business loans, with slight declines in tax exempt and residential mortgage
loans. The table below shows total loans outstanding, in thousands of dollars,
at September 30 and December 31, and their percentage of the total loan
portfolio. All loans are domestic and contain no concentrations by industry or
customer.

CREDIT QUALITY
The Company continues to maintain a high level of asset quality compared to
peers, as a result of actively monitoring delinquencies, nonperforming assets
and potential problem loans. In addition, the Bank uses an independent loan
review firm to assess the continued quality of its business loan portfolio.
Nonperforming loans are comprised of (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual
basis: (2) loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or
principal payments (but not included in the nonaccrual loans in (1) above); and
(3) other loans whose terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or
deferral of interest or principal because of a deterioration in the financial
position of the borrower (exclusive of loans in (1) or (2) above). The
aggregate amount of nonperforming loans, in thousands of dollars, is shown in
the table below. The Company's classification of nonperforming loans are
generally consistent with loans identified as impaired.

</TABLE>

Nonperforming loans again increased from second quarter totals, and the
greatest share of these loans consists of nonaccrual loans for two business
loan clients.  Minimal loss is anticipated, but the delinquency is expected to
remain high until the disposition of these two credits takes place. Both
dispositions will be from the sale of the assets of the companies.  Overall,
delinquency is well below industry standards, although is higher than
traditionally experienced by the Company.

An analysis of the allowance for loan losses, in thousands of dollars, for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 follows:

</TABLE>

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
Management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio.

Deposits
Total deposits remained relatively flat during the third quarter, and are down
slightly year to date. Noninterest bearing deposits continue to fluctuate with
swings in corporate and public fund balances, but the Company continued to
experience growth in noninterest bearing deposits.

Other interest bearing deposit balances declined slightly during the third
quarter of 1996 but was offset by the temporary growth at September 30 in
certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more, reflecting typical seasonal growth
in public funds deposits. Other interest bearing deposits are down slightly
year to date. Management anticipates that deposit growth during the remainder
of 1996 will be steady, with anticipated growth from new markets, as well as
from consumer re-entry into the certificate of deposit market.

<PAGE>   9

                         LIQUIDITY AND FUNDS MANAGEMENT

LIQUIDITY
Loan balances increased during the quarter, and coupled with no deposit growth,
resulted in the borrowing of funds during the period. Short term borrowings
decreased as a result of $10 million of new six month advances from the Federal
Home Loan Bank which were received during the third quarter.

Management anticipates moving in and out of the fed funds market as liquidity
needs require.  Seasonal deposit fluctuations, with continued loan demand, will
cause the borrowed funds position of the Company to vary. The Company has a
number of additional liquidity sources should the need arise, but Management
has no concerns for the liquidity position of the Company.

FUNDS MANAGEMENT
The Funds Management Policy of the Bank provides tolerances for the cumulative
gap ratio and total interest rate exposure. While the internal measures as
dictated by policy are calculated slightly different than shown in the table
below, all funds management ratios remain within policy. During the third
quarter of 1996, these ratios have changed only modestly from those reported at
June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, in spite of significant shifts in the
Bank's liquidity position.

The following table shows the rate sensitivity of earning assets and
liabilities, in thousands of dollars, as of September 30, 1996.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income continued the improvements begun in 1995. Effective
asset-liability management, as well as careful control of interest costs, has
contributed to this trend. The spread at September 30, 1996 was 4.16%, compared
to 4.17% at June 30, 1996 and 3.92% for all of 1995. The net yield on interest
earning assets remained at 4.71% for the third quarter, but improved from 4.41%
for 1995.

The table below shows the year to date daily average Consolidated Balance
Sheet, interest earned (on a taxable equivalent basis) or paid, and the
annualized effective rate or yield, for the period ended September 30, 1996 and
1995.

NONINTEREST INCOME
Substantially all categories of noninterest income increased for the current
quarter as well as year to date from the same period in 1995. Total noninterest
income remained relatively unchanged from the second quarter, but is up 28%
from the third quarter 1995, and up 22% from year to date 1995.

Income from sales and servicing of loans reflects the capitalization of
mortgage servicing rights as discussed in Note 3, above, as well as an increase
in the volume of fixed rate residential real estate loans being sold in the
secondary market. This income remained constant in the third quarter of 1996,
while year to date is above levels achieved in 1995.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES
Most categories of noninterest expense showed moderate increases year to date
and over the third quarter of 1995, reflecting continued growth and expansion
of the Bank. One notable decline is in the cost of FDIC insurance, as a result
of the rate reductions enjoyed by the banking industry in mid-1995. However, a
one time assessment passed by the congress on September 30, 1996 added $66,000
to third quarter expense. Other expenses continue at levels consistent with the
same period in 1995 and the first two quarters of 1996, reflecting efforts to
control overhead where possible.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX
There is no significant change in the income tax position of the Company during
the current quarter or the first nine months of 1996.

NET INCOME
Consolidated net income for the quarter remained flat from the second quarter
but increased from same period last year. Year to date consolidated net income
was $3,525,000 compared to $2,859,000 for the same period in 1995. Improved
interest margin, combined with improved noninterest income, as well as careful
control of operating expenses, have contributed to this improvement. Net income
for the year is 23.3% above the same period last year. Return on consolidated
average assets for the quarter was 1.45%, compared to 1.32% for 1995, and is
1.45% for the first nine months of 1996.
