(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 six month
period ending June 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.

Mortgage servicing rights activity in thousands of dollars for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 follows:

NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the year. On May 27, 1996, the Company issued a 5% stock
dividend. Earnings per share, dividends per share and weighted average shares
have been restated to reflect the stock dividend. The weighted average number
of shares outstanding was 1,564,294 for 1996 and 1,562,794 for 1995.


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 six month periods ending June 30, 1996.

                             FINANCIAL CONDITION

SECURITIES
Investment balances declined moderately during the second quarter of 1996,
although balances have increased from December 31, 1996. 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 June 30, 1995.

LOANS
Loan balances continued to enjoy strong growth during the second quarter of
1996, following the trend of the first quarter of 1996. Both business and
personal loans increased during the quarter and year to date, while residential
mortgages continued to decline slightly 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 loans,
with slight declines in business, tax exempt and residential mortgage loans.
The table below shows total loans outstanding, in thousands of dollars, at
December 31 and June 30, 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 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 nonpeforming loans are generally consistent with loans
identified as impaired.

The increase noted above in delinquent loans is somewhat misleading, as the
numbers reflect significant decreases from the levels reached at March 31,
1996. At that time, delinquent loans were .43% of total loans, and it was noted
that the increases were anticipated to be temporary, and losses were not
expected to increase significantly as a result of the increase.  That continues
to be the prognosis, and delinquency continues to improve and is well below
industry standards.

An analysis of the allowance for loan losses, in thousands of dollars, for the
six months ended June 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 second 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 during the quarter in personal noninterest bearing deposits
as a result of the continued popularity of the Freedom Checking product
introduced late in 1994.

Interest bearing deposit balances declined slightly during the second quarter
of 1996. The temporary growth at March 31 in certificates of deposit of
$100,000 or more, reflecting typical seasonal growth in public funds deposits,
was reversed somewhat during the second quarter. Other interest bearing
deposits remained relatively flat during the quarter, and are down slightly
year to date. Management anticipates that deposit growth during 1996 will be
steady, with growth anticipated from new markets, as well as from consumer
re-entry into the

certificate of deposit market.

                        LIQUIDITY AND FUNDS MANAGEMENT

LIQUIDITY
Loan balances increased during the quarter, and coupled with deposit declines,
resulted in the borrowing of funds during the quarter. Short term borrowings
increased also as a result of the maturity of $3 million of advances from the
Federal Home Loan Bank which were not renewed.

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 second
quarter of 1996, these ratios have not changed significantly from those
reported at March 31, 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 June 30, 1996.

                            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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 June 30, 1996 was 4.17%, compared to
4.09% at March 31, 1996 and 3.92% for all of 1995. The net yield on interest
earning assets improved to 4.71%, from 4.62% at March 31 and 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 June 30, 1996 and
1995.

NONINTEREST INCOME
Substantially all categories of noninterest income increased year to date and
from the same period in 1995. One exception is Trust & Investment fee income,
which is up from 1995, but has remained relatively flat year to date.

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 slowed somewhat in the second quarter of 1996,
while remaining above year to date levels achieved in 1995.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES
Most categories of noninterest expense showed moderate increases year to date
and over the second 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. Other
expenses continue at levels consistent with the same period in 1995 and the
first quarter 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 six months of 1996.

NET INCOME
Consolidated net income for the quarter increased over the first quarter and
the same period last year. Year to date consolidated net income was $2,324,000
compared to $1,844,000 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 26.0% above the same period last year. Return on consolidated average
assets for the quarter was 1.50%, compared to 1.27% for 1995, and is 1.45% for
the first six months of 1996.

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not involved in any material legal proceedings. The Company's
sole subsidiary, United Bank & Trust, is involved in ordinary routine
litigation incident to its business; however, no such proceedings are expected
to result in any material adverse effect on the operations or earnings of the
Bank. Neither the Bank nor the Company is involved in any proceedings to which
any director, principal officer, affiliate thereof, or person who owns of
record or beneficially five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding stock of
the Company or the Bank, or any associate of the foregoing, is a party or has a
material interest adverse to the Company or the Bank.

ITEM 4 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

The annual meeting of shareholders of the Company was held on April 16, 1996.
At that meeting, the following matters were submitted to a vote of the
shareholders. There were 1,489,840 voting shares outstanding on April 16,1996.

The following directors were re-elected to a three year term:

                                            For        Against   Abstain
  John H. Foss                           1,145,560        0        849
  David S. Hickman                       1,145,560        0        849
  Ann Hinsdale Knisel                    1,145,389      171        849
  Jeffrey T. Robideau                    1,145,058      502        849
  Richard S. Whelan                      1,145,560        0        849

                                         
Directors Berlin, Bush, Downing, Farver, Gross, Herrick, Lawson, Martin,
Maxwell, Wanke, and Whitehouse hold terms which continue after the meeting.

Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP of Grand Rapids, Michigan were ratified as
independent auditors for the Company and its subsidiary for the year ending
December 31, 1996. The vote was as follows:

                                          For         Against    Abstain
  Ratification of auditors             1,104,863       4,202     37,344
                                                   

The Shareholders of the Company adopted a deferred compensation plan,
designated as the Director Retainer Stock Plan (the "Director Plan"). The
Director Plan is intended to provide eligible directors of the Company and/or
the Bank with a means of deferring payment of retainers and certain fees
payable to them for Board service while at the same time expressing their
commitment to the Company by subjecting such deferred amounts to the market
performance of the Company's Common Stock. The Director Plan does not increase
any cash retainers or fees payable for board service, the amounts of which
would continue to be as established from time to time by the appropriate board,
and any retainers or fees elected to be deferred under the plan by an eligible
director ultimately would be payable in shares or cash equivalent to the market
value of shares, thus more closely aligning the interest of such a director
with those of the Company's shareholders.

The Shareholders also adopted a deferred compensation plan designated as the
Senior Management Bonus Deferral Stock Plan (the "Management Plan"). The
Management Plan has essentially the same purposes as the Director Plan
discussed above and would permit eligible employees of the Company or of the
Bank or another Affiliated Entity (as defined in the Management Plan) to elect
cash bonus deferrals and, after employment termination, to receive payouts in
whole or in part in the form of Shares (defined as in the Director Plan) on
terms substantially similar to those of the Director Plan. The Management Plan
would not increase the amounts of cash bonuses potentially payable to any
employee and, due to the nature of payouts under the plan, should serve to more
closely align the interest of participating employees with those of the
Company's shareholders.
