    FIRST INDIANA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
    NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
                  STATEMENTS
  Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999
                   (Unaudited)


Note 1  -  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with
the instruction 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 (comprising only
normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the
condensed consolidated financial statements have been included.  Results for
any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected
for the year.  The condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of First Indiana Corporation and its subsidiaries (the
"Corporation").  The principal subsidiary of the Corporation is First Indiana
Bank and its subsidiaries (the "Bank").  A summary of the Corporation's
significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.


Note 2  -  Earnings Per Share

     Basic earnings per share for 1999 and 1998 were computed by dividing
net earnings by the weighted averages shares of common stock outstanding,
12,509,044 and 12,750,527 for the three months ended September 30, 1999
and 1998, and 12,598,219 and 12,746,277 for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998.  Diluted earnings per share for 1999 and 1998 were
computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares of common
stock and common stock that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance
 of all dilutive potential common shares outstanding (12,788,964 and
13,255,871 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, and
12,853,797 and 13,286,412 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and
1998) after giving retroactive effect to a six-for-five stock dividend in
March 1998.  Dilution of the per-share calculation relates to stock options.


Note 3 -  Allowance for Loan Loss Reserve

     Allowances have been established for possible losses on loans and real
estate owned ("REO").  The provisions for losses charged to operations are
based on management's judgment of current circumstances and the credit risk
of the loan portfolio and REO.  Management believes that these allowances
are adequate for loan losses inherent in the loan and REO portfolios.  While
management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and REO,
future additions to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in
economic conditions.  In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an
integral part of their examinations, periodically review these allowances
and may require the Corporation to recognize additions to the allowances
based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of
their examination.

Note 4 - Segment Reporting

     The Corporation's business units are primarily organized to operate
in the banking industry, and are determined by the products and services
offered.  The consumer segment includes the origination, sale, and portfolio
activities of both home equity and installment loans, and the residential
segment encompasses the portfolio of both residential first mortgage and
Community Reinvestment Act loans.  The business segment originates
construction, commercial, and commercial real estate loans, and provides
traditional cash management services to business customers.  Investment
portfolio management is included in the treasury segment.  Mortgage banking
activities include the origination, sale, and servicing of residential
loans.  The retail segment includes the Bank's 21-branch network, as well
as the relatively newer virtual banking services.  FirstTrust, which
commenced operations in the first quarter of 1999, provides trust and
advisory services to the Bank's customers.  Revenues in the Corporation's
segments are generated from loans, deposits, investments, servicing fees,
loan sales and trust and advisory services.  There are no foreign operations.

Note 5 - Current Accounting Pronouncements

     FASB Statement No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No.
133, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" was issued in June 1999.
Statement No. 137 defers the effective date of Statement No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for one year.  Statement
No. 133, as amended, is now effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000.

     FASB Statement No. 133 generally requires that derivatives embedded in
hybrid instruments be separated from their host contracts and be accounted
for separately as derivative contracts.  For instruments existing at the date
of adoption, Statement No. 133 provides an entity the option of not applying
this provision to such hybrid instruments entered into before January 1, 1998
and not substantially modified thereafter.  Consistent with the deferral of
the effective date for one year, Statement No. 137 also provides an entity
the option of not applying this provision to hybrid instruments entered into
before January 1, 1998 or 1999 and not substantially modified thereafter.
Management is currently assessing the impact of this Statement on the
Financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation in the year
of adoption.


Note 6 -  Reclassifications

     Certain amounts in the 1998 Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements have been reclassified to  conform
to the 1999 presentation.


Management's Discussion and Analysis of
   Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Summary of Corporation's Results

     First Indiana Corporation and subsidiaries had net earnings of $6,622,000
for the third quarter of 1999, including two significant events and related
transactions explained below, compared with net earnings of $5,003,000 in the
third quarter of 1998.  Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 were $.52, compared with $.38 per share for the same period
one year ago.  Prior to these two events and related transactions (see next
paragraph), third quarter operating earnings were $5,600,000, or $.44 per
diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 1999.   Cash dividends for
the third quarter of 1999 and 1998 were $.13 and $.12 per share of common
stock outstanding, respectively.

     In April 1999, the Bank announced a divestiture of the out-of-state
residential mortgage lending business of its subsidiary.  An alliance partner
will provide permanent mortgage financing for First Indiana's customers in
Florida, North Carolina, and Oregon.  During the third quarter of 1999, the
Bank sold the deposits at the Evansville, Indiana-area branches.  Both of these
events are discussed more fully in subsequent paragraphs.

<PAGE> 12

     For the first nine months of 1999, net earnings were $16,273,000,
compared with $14,038,000 one year ago.  For the nine months ended September
30, 1999, diluted earnings per share were $1.27, compared with $1.06 for the
same period one year ago.  Operating earnings, excluding the two significant
events and related transactions, were $15,300,000, or $1.20 per diluted share,
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.  Cash dividends through the
first nine months of 1999 and 1998 were $.39 and $.36 per share of common
stock outstanding, respectively.


Net Interest Income

     Net interest income was $18,244,000 for the three months ended September
30, 1999, compared with $15,952,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1998.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, net interest income was
$52,318,000 compared with $47,471,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1998.

     Net loans outstanding increased to $1,614,055,000 at September 30, 1999,
compared with $1,518,543,000 one year earlier.  Residential loans outstanding
at September 30, 1999 were $445,287,000, down 14 percent from one year ago.
The decrease results from the Bank's increased activity in the secondary
market.  Residential loan sales for the third quarter of 1999 were
$135,978,000, compared with $132,612,000 for the same period in 1998.
Consumer loans sales for the third quarter of 1999 were $63,437,000, compared
with $64,753,000 for the same period in 1998.  At September 30, 1999, home
equity loans outstanding were $650,865,000, compared with $554,962,000 at
September 30, 1998, a 17 percent increase.  Business loans were $208,129,000
at September 30, 1999, compared with $162,969,000 one year earlier, a 28
percent increase.  Construction loans outstanding increased 47 percent to
$292,524,000 at September 30, 1999 compared with $198,563,000 at September
30, 1998.  In order to enhance net interest income, First Indiana has targeted
the consumer, business and construction loan portfolios for growth in 1999
while de-emphasizing residential loan portfolio growth.

     Interest income for the third quarter of 1999 was $37,545,000, compared
with $34,857,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998.  Interest
income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $107,845,000, compared
with $102,242,000 for the same period in 1998.  Interest expense for the third
quarter of 1999 was $19,301,000, compared with $18,905,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1998.  Interest expense for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998 was $55,527,000 and $54,771,000, respectively.

     During the third quarter of 1999, the Corporation's cost of funds was 4.83
percent, compared with 5.24 percent one year ago.  For the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, the cost of funds was 4.77 percent, compared with 5.20
percent for the same period in 1998.  The yield on earning assets was 8.19
percent for the third quarter of 1999, compared with 8.32 percent one year ago.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the yield on earning assets was
8.05 percent, compared with 8.36 percent for the same period in 1998.

<PAGE> 13

     Annualized return on total average assets was 1.38 percent for the three
months ended September 30, 1999, compared with 1.15 percent for the same period
in 1998.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Corporation's
annualized return on total average assets was 1.16 percent, compared with 1.10
percent for the same period in 1998.


Net Interest Margin

     Net interest margin consists of two components: interest-rate spread and
the contribution of interest-free funds (primarily capital and other
non-interest-bearing liabilities).  The following analysis of net interest
margin reflects the Corporation's ability to generate strong net interest
income resulting from a prudent combination of assets and liabilities.

     The environment of heavy refinancing activity due to declining interest
rates earlier in the year has slowed now that rates are on the rise.  This,
the contraction of the residential portfolio, and the redirection of
investments to the consumer and business portfolios, has resulted in an
improved interest-rate margin for the Bank when compared with last year.
Management believes the Corporation is strategically positioned for long-term
growth by developing a customer base that has the potential of utilizing other
First Indiana Bank products and services.

</TABLE>


     Non-performing assets were $15,333,000, or 0.82 percent of assets, at
September 30, 1999.  This compares with $19,880,000, or 1.11 percent of assets,
at December 31, 1998 and $19,224,000, or 1.11 percent of assets, at September
30, 1998.  This category includes not only non-accrual loans and real estate
owned, but also restructured loans on which the Bank continues to accrue
interest.

     The Bank regularly reviews all non-performing assets to evaluate the
adequacy of the allowances for losses on loans and REO inherent in the loan
portfolio.  The allowance for loan losses is maintained through a provision
for loan losses, which is charged to earnings.  The provisions are determined
in conjunction with management's review and evaluation of current economic
conditions, changes in the character and size of the loan portfolio, estimated
charge-offs, and other pertinent information derived from a quarterly review
of the loan portfolio and REO properties.

<PAGE> 15

     Due to favorable trends in delinquencies, non-performing loans and net
charge-offs, management has decided to lower the loan loss provision for the
quarter.  The provision for loan losses in the third quarter of 1999 and 1998
was $1,950,000 and $2,320,000.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1999,
the total provision for loan losses was $6,870,000, compared with $7,460,000
for the same period in 1998.

     The amount of the provision in 1999 is the result of management's ongoing
evaluation of the adequacy of its loan and real estate owned loss allowances
and the changing composition of the Corporation's loan portfolio and REO.
Management will continue to evaluate the adequacy of the provision and will
adjust it if necessary, based on the estimate of losses inherent in the
portfolio.


Non-Interest Income

     Total non-interest income was $8,043,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, compared with $6,291,000 for the same period in 1998.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, total non-interest
income was $20,352,000 and $16,522,000, respectively.

     The 1999 gain on sale of loans of $5,009,000 is comprised of both a
$4,031,000 gain on the sale of fixed-rate home equity loans and a $1,102,000
gain on residential mortgage loans.  A national network of agents, coupled
with a call center, has allowed the Bank to aggressively pursue originations
of home equity products with loan-to-value ratios of greater than 80 percent.
The Bank processes and underwrites these loans and subsequently sells them
into the secondary market.  In some cases, the Bank retains the servicing
rights on the home equity loan sales.

     Loan servicing income for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1999 decreased by $59,000 and $491,000 from the comparable periods in 1998.
This decrease primarily occurred as a result of the Bank's amortization of
mortgage servicing rights and loan prepayments.  The Corporation's residential
loan servicing portfolio amounted to $853,139,000 at September 30, 1999,
compared with $954,1342,000 at September 30, 1998.  The consumer loan servicing
portfolio was $209,089,000 at September 30, 1999, compared with $90,507,000 at
September 30, 1998.

     Loan fees increased $401,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared with the same period last year due to the increased business lending
activity.

     Customer fee income increased $400,000 for the three months and $900,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared with the same periods
last year, primarily as a result of the Bank's successful promotional campaigns
to acquire new checking accounts.

     First Indiana's trust subsidiary, FirstTrust Indiana, had $934,000,000 in
trust assets under management or in the process of transfer at September 30,
1999. Trust fees generated from these assets are also included in other
non-interest income.

<PAGE> 16

     During the first quarter of 1999, the Bank recognized $905,000 on the
sale of $148 million in loan servicing rights, which is included as a component
of other non-interest income.

     During the third quarter of 1999, the Bank recognized a $7,590,000 gain on
the sale of deposits at the Evansville, Indiana-area branches.  The Bank also
elected to sell certain loans and investment securities available for sale,
which resulted in a $4,400,000 loss.  In addition, approximately $1,600,000 in
various non-interest expense categories related to the Evansville and mortgage
divestiture was recognized during the quarter.  These transactions are part of
First Indiana' strategy of concentrating on Central Indiana, the fastest
growing region of the state.


Non-Interest Expense

     Total non-interest expense was $13,806,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, compared with $11,749,000 for the same period in 1998.
Non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998
was $39,554,000 and $33,557,000, respectively.  Salaries and benefits
increased $1,502,000 during the three months ended September 30, 1999 compared
to the third quarter of 1998 in order to provide processing and sales support
to the increased loan origination volume efforts in the targeted business,
construction, and consumer lending and as a result of the addition of
FirstTrust.  Occupancy expenses increased $131,000 in 1999 when compared
with 1998 due to the Bank's expansion into new markets.  Equipment, a
component of other operating expenses, increased $543,000 in 1999 compared
with 1998, primarily due to an enhancement of the Branch Banks teller systems.

     Included in real estate owned operations-net are all of the operating
revenues and expenses associated with the Corporation's real estate owned.
Such net results improved by $110,000 and $237,000 for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1999 from one year ago due to the decreased asset
balance of real estate owned.


Capital Resources and Liquidity

     At September 30, 1999, shareholders' equity was $172,898,000, or 9.20
percent of total assets, compared with $165,970,000, or 9.24 percent, at
December 31, 1998 and $163,061,000, or 9.38 percent, at September 30, 1998.

     The Corporation paid a quarterly dividend of $.13 per common share on
September 15, 1999 to shareholders of record as of September 3, 1999.  This
reflects an increase from $.12 per share in 1998.  On March 6, 1998, the
Corporation effected a six-for-five stock dividend.  All per-share amounts
have been adjusted to reflect the stock dividend.

     The following table shows First Indiana's strong capital levels and
compliance with all capital requirements at September 30, 1999.  First Indiana
Bank is classified as "well-capitalized" under the OTS regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action, its highest classification.  To be categorized as
"well-capitalized," the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, tier one
risk-based and tier one leverage ratios as set forth in the table.  The table
reflects categories of assets includable under OTS regulations.  There are no
conditions or events since the date of classification that management believes
have changed the Bank's category.

</TABLE>

     The Corporation conducts its business through its subsidiaries.  The main
source of funds for the Corporation is dividends from the Bank.  The
Corporation has no significant assets other than its investment in the Bank.

     Regulations require the director of the OTS to set minimum liquidity
levels between four and 10 percent of assets.  In the fourth quarter of 1997,
the regulations were altered to lower the liquidity requirement to four percent
of net withdrawable assets, and the definition of net withdrawable assets was
simplified.  This change did not have a significant impact on the Corporation's
liquidity position.  The Corporation's liquidity ratio at September 30, 1999,
was 8.00 percent.


Financial Condition

     Total assets at September 30, 1999, were $1,878,586,000, an increase
from $1,795,990,000 at December 31, 1998.

     Net loans receivable at September 30, 1999, were $1,614,055,000, compared
with $1,518,543,000 at December 31, 1998.   The predominant growth in loans
occurred in the targeted portfolios of construction, business, and consumer,
all of which increased from year-end 1998.  Mortgage-backed securities
available for sale increased $28,777,000 to $58,457,000 at September 30, 1999
from year-end as a result of purchases.  This increase was offset by a decrease
in the portfolio of investments available for sale of $67,927,000.

<PAGE> 18

     In April 1999, the Bank announced a divestiture of the out-of-state
residential mortgage lending business of its subsidiary.  An alliance partner
will provide permanent mortgage financing for First Indiana's customers in
Florida, North Carolina, and Oregon.  This alliance was consummated in the
third quarter of 1999.  First Indiana will continue to originate construction
loans outside Indiana, but permanent loans are now referred to Heritage
Financial Group.

     Total deposits were $1,272,985,000 at September 30, 1999, compared with
$1,227,918,000 at December 31, 1998. Non-interest-bearing deposits consist of
retail and commercial checking accounts, as well as official checking accounts.
Commercial checking accounts are expected to become a more significant source
of funds.  Included in commercial checking accounts at September 30, 1999 and
December 31, 1998 were approximately $5,895,000 and $4,285,000 of escrow
balances maintained for loans serviced for others.  These balances represent
principal, interest, taxes, and insurance that require separate maintenance at
the request of the investor.  Official checking accounts at September 30,1999
and December 31, 1998 were $44,397,000 and $51,293,000, respectively.

     In the first quarter of 1999, the Bank announced the divestiture of its
five Evansville branches.  Civitas Bank, which is based in Evansville, acquired
the deposits and offices of the five branches.  This transaction, which
included approximately $120 million of First Indiana's current deposit base,
was completed in the third quarter.

     Federal Home Loan Bank advances totaled $371,854,000 at September 30,
1999, compared with $327,247,000 at December 31, 1998.  These additional funds
were used for loan originations and the divestiture of the Evansville branches.

     The Corporation also uses short-term repurchase agreements as sources of
funds. Borrowings will continue to be used in the short run to compensate for
periodic or other reductions in deposits or inflows at less than projected
levels, and long-term to support mortgage lending activities.


Year 2000 Readiness

     The Bank was required by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination
Council ("FFIEC") to assess both the Bank's and its vendors' ability to be Year
2000 ready by June 30, 1999.  The Year 2000 issue refers to shortcomings which
exist in some current computer hardware and software that preclude the correct
calculation of date-sensitive information from, into, and between the twentieth
and twenty-first centuries, including leap year calculations.  Because the Bank
relies heavily on technology for transaction processing and interest
calculation, preparing for the Year 2000 is a critical focus of the Bank's
resources.  In addition to testing the technology, the Bank is also making
plans to ensure the availability of funds in order to meet potentially high
liquidity needs during December 1999.

<PAGE> 19

Risks of Year 2000 Issues

     The Bank faces two primary risks in regard to Year 2000 issues: technical
risk and liquidity risk.  "Technical risk" refers to possible disruption of
the Bank's operations because of computer failure by the Bank or third parties.
The impact or the severity on Bank operations would depend on the nature and
duration of the failure.  The most serious effect on the operations of the Bank
could result if basic services provided by the Bank's external service bureau
were disrupted.  Disruptions in other services such as telecommunications and
electric power could also have a serious effect. The Bank cannot make any
assurance that significant disruptions attributable to such parties will not
occur.  Failure of a third party fully to address its Year 2000 issues could
have an adverse effect on the business, operations, and/or financial condition
of the Bank.

     "Liquidity risk" refers to the fact that Bank customers might withdraw
substantial amounts of currency to cover fears that Year 2000 computer glitches
will shut down the Bank's computer systems and automated teller machines and
render withdrawals from financial institutions difficult.  The Bank has taken
proactive steps to address this possibility and is considering what additional
steps, if any, may be needed.

State of Readiness

     The Bank has assembled a team of associates, which meets regularly to lead
the Bank's Year 2000 readiness efforts.  All hardware and software vendors, as
well as significant other vendors and borrowers, have been identified and
contacted.  The Bank has an inventory of known potential Year 2000 readiness
issues, and has developed action plans and contingency plans for each issue.
During 1999, the Bank is completing integrated testing of interdependent
systems, testing data interfaces with third parties, and is developing
bank-wide contingency plans, with testing of the contingency plans to occur
during the second, third, and fourth quarters.  The team is monitoring
significant vendor and borrower relationships to ensure that no issues arise
which cause management to question the ability of the vendor or borrower to
adequately prepare for the Year 2000, and thus possibly impact the Bank's own
ability to conduct business beyond the century change.

     The OTS is conducting regular examinations of all financial institutions
to assess Year 2000 readiness in accordance with FFIEC guidelines. The Bank
uses an external data services bureau, which provides most of the automated
processing of First Indiana's customer transactions. The Bank's external
service bureau has reported that it expects its systems to be year 2000
compliant in all material respects.  The service bureau is also examined by
the OTS.  The Bank's Year 2000 Team will continuously monitor this service
bureau's Year 2000 readiness efforts throughout the remainder of the year.

<PAGE> 20

Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues

     The Bank's expenditures associated with the Year 2000 as of September 30,
1999 totaled $4.7 million, all of which related to 1999.  These costs include
major system renovations, an upgrade of all desktop personal computers
throughout the Bank, implementation of an independent location for Year 2000
testing, and fees related to third-party vendor testing.  The Bank expensed
$761,000 of these expenditures in 1999.  The remaining expenditures relating
to system and equipment purchases have been capitalized in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. Management does not anticipate
additional significant Year 2000 related expenditures for the remainder of the
year.  Although management sees no internal impact or risk to the Bank's
ability to operate in the 21st century, it is not possible to assess the
financial impact of lost revenue due toYear 2000 issues attributable to
external factors.

Contingency Plans

     While the Bank has undertaken significant efforts to assess, remediate,
and test their technical systems to address Year 2000 processing issues, it
is also developing contingency plans.  These contingency plans are intended
to provide alternative processes and actions in the event of systems
malfunction or failures due to Year 2000 issues.  The Bank is required to
follow FFIEC guidance advising two levels of contingency planning -
remediation and business-resumption.  Remediation contingency plans address
the actions to be taken if the remediation efforts fall behind schedule or
appear in jeopardy of not delivering a Year 2000 ready system when required.
Business-resumption contingency plans address the actions that would be taken
if key business processes could not be performed in the normal manner upon
entering the next century due to system or third party failures.

     The Bank has defined remediation contingency plan requirements that are
intended to provide alternative processes and actions to address failed or
unsuccessful remediation efforts.  The first priority is their core processes
and mission-critical systems.  The Bank has developed business resumption
contingency plans for each of its key business processes and is required to
have them tested by October 30, 1999.  The business-resumption plans of the
Bank include the four phases cited in the FFIEC contingency planning process.
These four phases are: (i) establishment of organization planning guidelines,
(ii) completion of a business impact analysis including the definition of Year
2000 failure scenarios, (iii) development of a contingency plan for core
systems including contingency trigger dates, and (iv) review and periodic
testing of plan viability.

     The management of the Bank believes it is taking reasonable steps to
address and remediate Year 2000 issues, especially with respect to
mission-critical systems and liquidity.  However, the Bank can make no
representation that all of its systems and, especially, those of significant
third parties, will be Year 2000 ready or that it will not be adversely
affected by Year 2000 issues.

Interest-Rate Sensitivity

     First Indiana engages in rigorous, formal asset/liability management, the
objectives of which are to manage interest-rate risk, ensure adequate
liquidity, and coordinate sources and uses of funds.  At September 30, 1999,
the Corporation's cumulative one-year interest-rate gap stood at a negative
1.82 percent.  This means that 1.82 percent of First Indiana's assets
liabilities will reprice within one year without a corresponding repricing of
the assets they fund.  This liability sensitive position is a significant
change when compared to the cumulative one-year interest-rate gap at December
31, 1998.  The near-term maturity of fixed rate certificates of deposits is the
most significant component of this change.

     The following schedule analyzes the difference in rate-sensitive assets
and liabilities or gap at September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

(1) The distribution of fixed-rate loans is based upon contractual maturity and scheduled contractual
    repayment adjusted for estimated prepayments.  For adjustable-rate loans, interest rates adjust at
    intervals of six months to five years.  Included in Residential Mortgage Loans is $17,860 of Loans
    Held for Sale.  Included in Consumer Loans is $63,459 of Home Equity Loans Held for Sale.

(2) These deposits have been included in the Over 5 Years category to reflect management's assumption
    that these accounts are not rate-sensitive.  This assumption is based upon historic trends of these
    deposits through periods of significant increases and decreases in interest rates without changes in
    rates paid on these deposits.  Included in this category are NOW, money market checking and
    non-interest bearing deposits.  The rate represents a blended rate on all deposit types in the category.


(3) A portion of these deposits have been included in the Over 5 Years category to reflect management's
    assumption that these accounts are not rate-sensitive.  This assumption is based upon the historic minimal
    decay rates on these types of deposits experienced through periods of significant increases and decreases
    in interest rates without changes in rates paid on these deposits.

(4) Net - Other is the excess of other non-interest-bearing liabilities and capital over other
    non-interest-bearing assets.

Disclosures About Market Risk

   The Corporation's success is largely dependent upon its ability to manage
interest-rate risk, which is defined as the exposure of the Corporation's net
interest income and net earnings to changes in interest rates.  The Bank's
Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO") is responsible for managing interest-rate
risk and the Corporation has established acceptable limits for interest-rate
exposure, which are reviewed on a monthly basis.  The Bank uses a model which
measures interest-rate sensitivity to determine the impact on net earnings of
immediate and sustained upward and downward movements in interest rates.
Incorporated into the model are assumptions regarding the current and
anticipated interest rate environment, estimated prepayment rates of certain
assets and liabilities, forecasted loan and deposit originations, contractual
maturities, and renewal rates on certificates of deposits, estimated borrowing
needs, anticipated loan loss provision, projected secondary marketing gains and
losses, expected repricing spreads on variable-rate products, and contractual
maturities and repayments on lending and investment products.  The model
incorporates interest-rate sensitive instruments which are held to maturity or
available for sale.  The Bank has no trading assets.  Based on the information
and assumptions in effect at September 30, 1999, management believes that a 100
basis point increase or decrease in interest rates over a 12 month period would
result in a 1.2 percent increase and a 8.9 percent decrease in net earnings,
respectively, because of the change in net interest income.  Because of the
numerous assumptions used in the computation of interest-rate sensitivity, and
the fact that the model does not assume any actions the ALCO could take in
response to the change in interest rates, the results should not be relied upon
as indicative of actual results.

     Historically the Bank enters into forward sales contracts for future
delivery of residential fixed-rate mortgage loans at a specified yield in order
to limit market risk associated with its pipeline of residential mortgage loans
held for sale and commitments to fund residential mortgage loans.  Market risk
arises from the possible inability of either party to comply with the contract
terms.

     The Bank designates these forward sales contracts as hedges.  To qualify
as a hedge, the forward sales contract must be effective in reducing the market
risk of the identified anticipated residential mortgage loan sale which is
probable to occur.  Effectiveness is evaluated on an ongoing basis through
analysis of the residential mortgage loan pipeline position.  Commitments under
these forward sales contracts and the underlying residential mortgage loans are
valued, and the net position is carried at the lower of cost or market.
Unrecognized gains and losses on these forward sales contracts are generally
immaterial and are charged to current earnings as an adjustment to the gain or
loss on residential mortgage loan sales when realized, or when the contract
matures or is terminated.
