8. CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER

     Notwithstanding any term of the offer, the Company may, at its option,
withdraw the offer and shall not be required to accept for payment or purchase
or pay for any shares of common stock tendered, if before the expiration date of
the offer, any event has occurred that has been determined by the Company, in
the Company's reasonable judgment, and regardless of the circumstances giving
rise to it (including any action or omission to act by the Company), making it
inadvisable to proceed with the offer or with the acceptance for payment or
payment, including but not limited to the following events:

               (a)  There shall have been instituted or threatened any
          action or proceeding before any court or administrative
          agency which challenges the acquisition of shares pursuant to
          the offer or otherwise relates in any manner to the offer, or
          in the judgment of the Company could otherwise materially and
          adversely affect the Company; or

               (b)  Any action shall have been taken, or any statute,
          rule, regulation or order shall have been proposed, enacted,
          enforced, or deemed to be applicable to the offer, by any
          governmental agency or other regulatory administrative
          authority, domestic or foreign, which, in the judgment of the
          Company would or might prohibit, restrict or delay
          consummation of the offer or materially impair the
          contemplated benefits of the offer to the Company; or

               (c)  There shall have occurred any commencement of armed
          hostilities directly or indirectly involving the United
          States which has or is reasonably expected to have a material
          negative effect on the United States stock markets, or any
          national emergency, banking moratorium or suspension of
          payments by banks in the United States, or any general
          suspension of trading or limitation of prices for securities
          on any primary securities exchange or in the over-the-counter
          market in the United States, or any decline in either the Dow
          Jones Industrial Average or the Standard & Poor's Index of
          500 Industrial Companies by an amount in excess of ten
          percent measured from the close of business on March 15,
          1999; or

               (d)  Any change shall occur or be threatened in the
          business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations,
          stock ownership, prospects of the Company or one of its
          subsidiary banks, which, in the judgment of the Company, is
          or may be material to the Company or its subsidiary, any of
          which in the reasonable judgment of the Company makes it
          inadvisable to proceed with the acceptance of tenders,
          purchase of shares, or payment.

          Any determination by the Company concerning any events
          described in this section and any related judgment or decision
          by the Company regarding the inadvisability of proceeding with
          the purchase of or the payment for any shares tendered shall be<PAGE>





          final and binding upon all parties.  The foregoing conditions
          are for the sole benefit of the Company and may be asserted by
          the Company regardless of the circumstances giving rise to
          those conditions or may be waived by the Company in whole or in
          part.  The Company's failure at any time to exercise any of the
          foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such
          right, and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right
          that may be asserted at any time and from time to time.
