PART I
Item 1. Business
General. SVB&T Corporation (the "Company") is a registered bank holding
company under the Bank Holding Company Act with its principal office in French
Lick, Indiana. The Company has elected to be governed by the Indiana Business
Corporation Law (IBCL).
The Company's sole subsidiary is Springs Valley Bank & Trust Company (the
"Bank"), which operates two banking offices in Orange County, Indiana, two
offices in Dubois County, Indiana and a banking office in Clark County,
Indiana. The Company became a holding company for the Bank in early 1983. At
present, the business of the Company is the management of the operations of
the Bank. The Bank is engaged in the business of providing a wide range of
financial services which include:
(I) maintaining demand, savings, and time deposits of individuals,
partnerships, corporations, associations, and government entities;
(II) extension of credit through loans to individuals, and to small and
medium sized businesses;
(III) purchase of obligations of federal, state, county and municipal
authorities and agencies;
(IV) providing a wide range of fiduciary services for personal and
corporate trusts;
(V) providing collection and deposit services for businesses and
individuals as well as providing currency and change for check
cashing and business operations;
(VI) acting as an agent for credit life, health and disability
insurance, property and casualty insurance, and health insurance;
and
(VII) acting as a broker for residential and commercial real estate.
The bank competes in the financial services industry in the counties of
Orange, Dubois and surrounding counties in Indiana. Competition includes
other financial institutions, credit unions, brokerage firms, acceptance
corporations and other organizations that offer banking related services in
our area.
The bank employees 113 full-time equivalents which are provided benefits and
with whom it enjoys excellent relations.
The bank serves as principal depository, and trust administrator for Kimball
International, Inc. ("Kimball") an interest of a majority of the Board of
Directors of the Company. The deposits of Kimball represent approximately 9%
of the certificates of deposit and money market deposits of the Bank. In
addition, the Bank has loans outstanding with individuals who are employees of
Kimball representing in excess of 16% of the Bank's total loans. Accordingly
the cash flow of Kimball can have a significant impact on the deposit
functions and earnings of the Bank.
At December 31, 1996, the Bank had total assets of $184 million, total
deposits of $152 million and total equity capital of $17 million.
REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS
Regulation of SVB&T and Affiliates
SVB&T Regulation. SVB&T is registered as a bank holding company and is
subject to the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System ("Federal Reserve") under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as
amended ("BHC Act"). Bank holding companies are required to file periodic
reports with and are subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve.
The Federal Reserve has issued regulations under the BHC Act requiring a bank
holding company to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to
its subsidiary banks. It is the policy of the Federal Reserve that, pursuant
to this requirement, a bank holding company should stand ready to use its
resources to provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary banks during
periods of financial stress or adversity.
Additionally, under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act
of 1991 ("FDICIA"), a bank holding company is required to guarantee the
compliance of any insured depository institution subsidiary that may become
"undercapitalized" (as defined in the statute) with the terms of any capital
restoration plan filed by such subsidiary with its appropriate federal banking
agency up to the lesser of (i) an amount equal to 5% of the institution's
total assets at the time the institution became undercapitalized, or (ii) the
amount that is necessary (or would have been necessary) to bring the
institution into compliance with all applicable capital standards as of the
time the institution fails to comply with such capital restoration plan.
Under the BHC Act, the Federal Reserve has the authority to require a bank
holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control of a nonbank
subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal
Reserve's determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious
risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the
bank holding company.
SVB&T and the Bank are subject to Sections 22(h), 23A and 23B of the Federal
Reserve Act, which restricts financial transactions between banks and
affiliated companies. These sections of this statute also limit credit
transactions between a depository institution and its executive officers and
its affiliates, prescribes terms and conditions for affiliate transactions
deemed to be consistent with safe and sound banking practice, and restricts
the types of collateral security permitted in connection with an institution's
extension of credit to an affiliate.
Affiliate Regulation. The Bank, which is a bank chartered by the State of
Indiana, is supervised, regulated and examined by the Indiana Department of
Financial Institutions and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC). Each regulator has the authority to issue cease-and-desist orders if
it determines that activities of the Bank regularly represent an unsafe and
unsound banking practice or a violation of law.
Both federal and state law extensively regulate various aspects of the banking
business such as reserve requirements, truth-in-lending and truth-in-savings
disclosure, equal credit opportunity, fair credit reporting, trading in
securities and other aspects of banking operations. Current federal law also
requires banks, among other things, to make deposited funds available within
specified time periods.
The Bank has the power to engage in the business of banking as provided by the
laws of the State of Indiana. However, insured state-chartered banks are
prohibited under FDICIA from engaging as principal in activities that are not
permitted for national banks under federal law, unless (i) the FDIC determines
that the activity would pose no significant risk to the appropriate deposit
insurance fund, and (ii) the bank is, and continues to be, in compliance with
all applicable capital standards.
Capital Adequacy Guidelines
Bank holding companies with consolidated assets in excess of $150 million, or
bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $150 million
which are engaged in nonbank activity involving significant leverage or which
have a significant amount of outstanding debt held by the general public, are
required to comply with the Federal Reserve's risk-based capital guidelines
which require a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets
(including certain off-balance sheet activities such as standby letters of
credit) of 8%. At least half of the total required capital, or 4%, must be
"Tier 1 capital," consisting principally of common shareholders' equity,
noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, a limited amount of cumulative
perpetual preferred stock and minority interest in the equity accounts of
consolidated subsidiaries, less certain goodwill items. The remainder ("Tier
2 capital") may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt and
intermediate-term preferred stock, certain hybrid capital instruments and
other debt securities, cumulative perpetual preferred stock, and a limited
amount of the general loan loss allowance. In addition to the risk-based
capital guidelines, the Federal Reserve has adopted a Tier 1 (leverage)
capital ratio under which the bank holding company must maintain a minimum
level of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets of 3% in the case
of bank holding companies which have the highest regulatory examination
ratings and are not contemplating significant growth or expansion. All other
bank holding companies are expected to maintain a ratio of at least 1% to 2%
above the stated minimum.
The following are SVB&T's regulatory capital ratios as of December 31, 1996:
Tier 1 Capital: 15.49%
Total Capital: 16.68%
Leverage Ratio: 9.18%
The Bank is required to meet similar capital adequacy ratios. The FDIC has
adopted risk-based capital ratio guidelines to which depository institutions
under its supervision are subject. The guidelines establish a systematic
analytical framework that makes regulatory capital requirements more sensitive
to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations.Risk-based capital
ratios are determined by allocating assets and specified off-balance sheet
commitments to four risk weighted categories, with higher levels of capital
being required for the categories perceived as representing greater risk.
Like the capital guidelines established by the Federal Reserve, these
guidelines divide an institution's capital into two tiers. Depository
institutions are required to maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of 8%,
of which 4% must be Tier 1 capital. The agencies may, however, set higher
capital requirements when an institution's particular circumstances warrant.
Depository institutions experiencing or anticipating significant growth are
expected to maintain capital ratios, including tangible capital positions,
well above the minimum levels.
In addition, the agencies established guidelines prescribing a minimum Tier 1
leverage ratio of 3% for depository institutions that meet certain specified
criteria, including that they have the highest regulatory rating and are not
experiencing or anticipating significant growth. All other institutions are
required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% plus an additional 100 to
200 basis points.
The following are the Bank's regulatory capital ratios as of December 31,
1996:
Tier 1 Capital: 15.12%
Total Capital: 16.34%
Leverage Ratio: 8.80%
The FDIC includes, in its evaluations of a bank's capital adequacy, an
assessment of the bank's exposure to declines in the economic value of the
bank's capital due to changes in interest rates. On June 26, 1996, the FDIC,
along with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal
Reserve, issued a joint policy statement to provide guidance on sound
practices for managing interest rate risk. The statement sets forth the
factors the federal regulatory examiners will use to determine the adequacy of
a bank's capital for interest rate risk. These qualitative factors include
the adequacy and effectiveness of the bank's internal interest rate risk
management process and the level of interest rate exposure. Other qualitative
factors that will be considered include the size of the bank, the nature and
complexity of its activities, the adequacy of its capital and earnings in
relation to the bank's overall risk profile, and its earning exposure to
interest rate movements.
The interagency supervisory policy statement describes the responsibilities of
a bank's board of directors in implementing a risk management process and the
requirements of the bank's senior management in ensuring the effective
management of interest rate risk. Further, the statement specifies the
elements that a risk management process must contain.
In August, 1996, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC issued final regulations
further revising their risk-based capital standards to include a supervisory
framework for measuring market risk. The effect of the new regulations is
that any bank holding company or bank which has significant exposure to market
risk must measure such risk using its own internal model, subject to the
requirements contained in the regulations, and must maintain adequate capital
to support that exposure. The regulations became effective on January 1,
1997, but compliance with the regulations is not mandatory until January 1,
1998.
The new regulations apply to any bank holding company or bank whose trading
activity equals 10% or more of its total assets, or whose trading activity
equals $1 billion or more. Examiners may require a bank holding company or
bank that does not meet the applicability criteria to comply with the capital
requirements if necessary for safety and soundness purposes.
The new regulations contain supplemental rules to determine qualifying and
excess capital, calculate risk-weighted assets, calculate market risk
equivalent assets and calculate risk-based capital ratios adjusted for market
risk.
It is too early to assess the impact, if any, these new rules and proposals
will have on SVB&T or the Bank.
Branching and Acquisitions
Branching. Branching by the Bank is subject to the jurisdiction, and requires
the prior approval, of the FDIC and the Indiana Department of Financial
Institutions. Under current law, banks chartered by the State of Indiana may
establish branches throughout the state and in other states. As discussed
below, Congress authorized interstate branching, with certain limitations,
beginning in 1997 unless states adopt statutes authorizing banks to engage in
such activities at an earlier time. In 1996, the Indiana General Assembly
adopted statutes authorizing Indiana financial institutions to establish one
or more branches in states other than Indiana through interstate merger
transactions and to establish one or more interstate branches through de novo
branching or the acquisition of a branch.
Acquisitions. Bank holding companies, such as SVB&T, are prohibited by the
BHC Act from acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of any class of voting stock or substantially all of the
assets of any bank or savings association or merging or consolidating with
another bank holding company without prior approval of the Federal Reserve.
Additionally, SVB&T is prohibited by the BHC Act from engaging in or from
acquiring ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of
any class of voting stock of any company engaged in a nonbanking business
unless such business is determined by the Federal Reserve to be so closely
related to banking as to be a proper incident thereto. The BHC Act does not
place territorial restrictions on the activities of such nonbanking-related
activities.
The BHC Act specifically authorizes a bank holding company, upon receipt of
appropriate approvals from the Federal Reserve and the Director of the Office
of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), to acquire control of any savings association
or holding company thereof wherever located. Similarly, a savings and loan
holding company may acquire control of a bank. A savings association acquired
by a bank holding company cannot continue any non-banking activities not
authorized for bank holding companies. Savings associations acquired by a
bank holding company may, if located in a state where the bank holding company
is legally authorized to acquire a bank, be converted to the status of a bank,
but deposit insurance assessments and payments continue to be paid by the
association to the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). A savings
association so converted to a bank becomes subject to the branching
restrictions applicable to banks. Also, any insured depository institution
may merge with, acquire the assets of, or assume the liabilities of any other
insured depository institution with the appropriate regulatory approvals if
(i) continued payments of deposit insurance premiums are made on the acquired
depository institution's deposits (including an assumed rate of growth in such
deposits) to SAIF (if the acquired institution was a SAIF member) or to the
Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") (if the acquired institution was a BIF member),
(ii) the acquiring institution and any holding company in control thereof meet
all applicable capital requirements at the time of the transaction, and (iii)
if the acquiring institution is a BIF member, the transaction meets any
limitations on geographic expansion.
Interstate Banking
The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994, which
allows for interstate banking and interstate branching without regard to
whether such activity is permissible under state law, made sweeping changes to
interstate branching and expansion. Bank holding companies may now acquire
banks anywhere in the United States subject to certain state restrictions.
Beginning on June 1, 1997, an insured bank may merge with an insured bank in
another state without regard to whether such merger is prohibited by state
law. Additionally, an out-of-state bank may acquire the branches of an
insured bank in another state without acquiring the entire bank; provided,
however, that the law of the state where the branch is located permits such an
acquisition. Interstate branching may occur earlier than June 1, 1997, if
both states involved with the bank merger expressly permit it by statute. As
discussed above, Indiana adopted a statute in 1996 that permits interstate
branching and mergers prior to the national effective date of June 1, 1997.
Further, bank holding companies may merge existing bank subsidiaries located
in different states into one bank.
An insured bank subsidiary may act as an agent for an affiliated bank or
savings association in offering limited banking services (receive deposits,
renew time deposits, close loans, service loans and receive payments on loans
obligations) both within the same state and across state lines.
FDICIA
FDICIA accomplished a number of sweeping changes in the regulation of
depository institutions. FDICIA requires, among other things, federal bank
regulatory authorities to take "prompt corrective action" with respect to
banks which do not meet minimum capital requirements. For these purposes,
FDICIA establishes five capital tiers: well capitalized, adequately
capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically
undercapitalized.
The FDIC has adopted regulations to implement the prompt corrective action
provisions of FDICIA. Among other things, the regulations define the relevant
capital measures for the five capital categories. An institution is deemed to
be "well capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or
greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% or greater, and a leverage
ratio of 5% or greater, and is not subject to a regulatory order, agreement or
directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital
measure. An institution is deemed to be "adequately capitalized" if it has a
total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of 4% or greater, and generally a leverage ratio 4% or greater. An
institution is deemed to be "undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based
capital ratio of less than 8% or a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or
greater and generally a leverage ratio of less than 4%, and "significantly
undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%,
a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3%, or a leverage ratio of less
than 3%. An institution is deemed to be "critically undercapitalized" if it
has a ratio of tangible equity (as defined in the regulations) to total assets
that is equal to or less than 2%.
"Undercapitalized" banks are subject to growth limitations and are required to
submit a capital restoration plan. A bank's compliance with such plan is
required to be guaranteed by any company that controls the undercapitalized
institution as described above. If an "undercapitalized" bank fails to submit
an acceptable plan, it is treated as if it is significantly undercapitalized.
"Significantly undercapitalized" banks are subject to one or more of a number
of requirements and restrictions, including an order by the FDIC to sell
sufficient voting stock to become adequately capitalized, requirements to
reduce total assets and cease receipt of deposits from correspondent banks,
and restrictions on compensation of executive officers."Critically
undercapitalized" institutions may not, beginning 60 days after becoming
"critically undercapitalized," make any payment of principal or interest on
certain subordinated debt or extend credit for a highly leveraged transaction
or enter into any transaction outside the ordinary course of business. In
addition, "critically undercapitalized" institutions are subject to
appointment of a receiver or conservator.
FDICIA further directs that each federal banking agency prescribe standards
for depository institutions and depository institution holding companies
relating to internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems,
loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth,
management compensation, a maximum ratio of classified assets to capital,
minimum earnings sufficient to absorb losses, a minimum ratio of market value
to book value of publicly traded shares and such other standards as the agency
deemed appropriate.
Deposit Insurance
The deposits of the Bank are insured up to $100,000 per insured account, by
the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") administered by the FDIC. Accordingly, the
Bank pays deposit insurance premiums to BIF.
Effective January 1, 1993, the FDIC adopted a final rule that implements a
transitional risk-based assessment system whereby a base insurance premium
will be adjusted according to the capital category and subcategory of an
institution to one of three capital categories consisting of (1) well
capitalized, (2) adequately capitalized, or (3) undercapitalized, and one of
three subcategories consisting of (a) healthy, (b) supervisory concern, or (c)
substantial supervisory concern. An institution's assessment rate will depend
upon the capital category and supervisory category to which it is assigned.
Assessment rates for banks currently range from 0% for an institution in the
highest category (i.e., well capitalized) to 0.27% for an institution in the
lowest category (i.e. undercapitalized and substantial supervisory concern).
The supervisory subgroup to which an institution is assigned by the FDIC is
confidential and may not be disclosed. Deposit insurance assessments may
increase depending upon the category and subcategory, if any, to which the
bank is assigned by the FDIC. If the FDIC believes that an increase in the
insurance rates is necessary, it may increase the insurance premiums
applicable to BIF. Any increase in insurance assessments could have an adverse
effect on the earnings of the Bank.
Recent Legislation
Congress is currently considering legislation which would impact financial
institutions. Among the matters being considered is the repeal of the Glass-
Steagall Act which has severely limited the ability of financial institutions
to underwrite securities since immediately after the Depression. If
legislation of this nature is enacted, it could expand the securities powers
of bank holding companies, like SVB&T, permitting them to form a subsidiary to
underwrite and deal in securities and debt instruments. SVB&T currently may
act as a broker/dealer for securities, but it may not generally underwrite
corporate securities or debt. The effect of the bill would also be to permit
bank holding companies to acquire, and be acquired by, securities firms.
Another matter frequently considered by Congress is legislation which would
scale back certain laws which are deemed by Congress to impose regulatory
burdens on banks and would eliminate redundancies in the law. Included in the
affected laws are the Truth-in-Savings Act, the Community Reinvestment Act and
certain laws with respect to disclosures in mortgage lending and the like.
It cannot be predicted with certainty whether any legislation of this nature
will be enacted or the extent to which the banking industry in general, or
SVB&T and the Bank in particular, would be affected.
Congress is currently considering a number of alternatives to address the
problems arising from the fact that FDIC deposit insurance premiums for banks
are currently higher than those for savings associations and for deposits of
savings associations that have been acquired by banks. It is difficult at
this time to assess whether or how Congress will address this premium
differential and, if so, what impact its legislative solution to the problem
will have on SVB&T and the Bank.
Additional Matters
In addition to the matters discussed above, SVB&T and the Bank are subject to
additional regulation of their activities, including a variety of consumer
protection regulations affecting their lending, deposit and collection
activities and regulations affecting secondary mortgage market activities.
The extensive regulation, supervision and examination of financial
institutions by the bank regulatory agencies is intended primarily for the
protection of the insurance fund and depositors. Moreover, such regulation
imposes substantial restrictions on the operations and activities of such
institutions, and grants to regulators broad discretion in connection with
their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies,
including policies with respect to classification of assets and establishment
of adequate loan loss reserves. Any changes in such regulations, whether by
legislation or regulatory action, could have a material impact on the Bank and
its operations. SVB&T cannot predict what, if any, future actions may be
taken by legislative or regulatory authorities or what impact any such actions
may have on the operations of the Bank.
The earnings of financial institutions are also affected by general economic
conditions and prevailing interest rates, both domestic and foreign and by the
monetary and fiscal policies of the United States Government and its various
agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve.
Additional legislation and administrative actions affecting the banking
industry may be considered by Congress, state legislatures and various
regulatory agencies, including those referred to above. It cannot be
predicted with certainty whether such legislation of administrative action
will be enacted or the extent to which the banking industry in general or
SVB&T and the Bank in particular would be affected thereby.
Item 2. Property
The Bank properties consist of the home office, located at 505 South Maple
Street in French Lick, Indiana, and branch offices located at Broadway Avenue
in West Baden Springs; 1500 Main Street in Jasper, Indiana; 865 3rd Avenue in
Jasper, Indiana; and 614 E Water Street in Borden, Indiana, as well as seven
automated teller machines, four in Jasper, one in West Baden, one in French
Lick, and one in Borden. The Company has no separate offices.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
As a part of its ordinary course of business, the Bank is a party in law suits
involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts and
involving the collection of delinquent accounts (such as garnishment
proceedings). All such litigation is incidental to the Bank's business.
Management believes that no litigation is threatened or pending in which the
Company or the Bank faces potential loss or exposure which will materially
affect the stockholders' equity or the Bank's financial position.

Not Applicable.
PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrants Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Shares of the common stock of the Company are not traded on any national or
regional exchange or in the over-the-counter market. Accordingly, there is no
established market for the common stock. These are occasional trades as a
result of private negotiations not involving a broker or a dealer.
According to the information available to the Company the following table
displays the high and low selling prices for each quarter for 1995 and 1996.
Other trades may have occurred at prices of which the Company was not aware.
Year Quarter High/Per Share Low/Per Share
1996 1 $50 $50
2 N/A N/A
3 N/A N/A
4 $50 $50
1995 1 N/A N/A
2 $45 $45
3 N/A N/A
4 $45 $45
The company has 322 shareholders on record as of February 14, 1997.
The following table sets forth the cash dividends of the company for the two
most recent fiscal years:
Cash Dividends Per Share
1st 2nd 3rd 4th
Year Quarter Quarter Quarter Quarter
1996 $.23 $.23 $.24 $.24
1995 $.22 $.23 $.23 $.23
The holders of the Company's Common Stock are entitled to cash dividends when,
and if declared by its Board of Directors out of funds legally available
therefor. The Company intends to pay a reasonable dividend, while maintaining
capital adequacy. Funds for the payment of cash dividends by the Company are
obtained primarily from dividends paid to it by the Bank. The Bank is
restricted by Indiana law and regulations of the Department of Financial
Institutions, State of Indiana, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
as to the maximum amount of dividends it can pay without prior approval. At
December 31, 1996 approximately $3,025,000 of the Bank's retained earnings
were available for dividend payments to the Corporation. There is no
assurance as to future dividends since they are dependent upon earnings,
general economic conditions, financial condition, capital requirements,
regulatory limitations, and other factors as may be appropriate in determining
dividend policy.

Results of Operation
Net Income
Net income for 1996 was $1,660,961.
The table below is a comparison of the net income for the years 1994 thru 1996.
This table also displays the percentage and dollar amount changes which
occurred during the last three years.

1994 1,374,199 (195,783) (12.47%)
SVB&T Corporation's net income has increased during 1996 after experiencing a
decline for the past two years. The main contributing factor to this increase
is an increase of $583,674 in Loan Interest and Loan Fee Income.
Overall Interest Income has increased $524,271.
Other contributing factors include a $24,000 decrease in Provision for loan
losses, and a $93,000 decrease in interest expense, and a $192,000 decrease in
FDIC Insurance.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest and fees earned on loans
and investments, and interest paid on interest bearing liabilities. This is
the Bank's primary source of income. In this discussion, net interest income
is presented on a tax equivalent basis.
All tax-exempt income earned on securities of state and political subdivision
has been increased to an amount that would have been earned on a taxable basis.
This places taxable and non-taxable income on a more comparable basis and makes
the comparisons more meaningful.
In 1996, tax equivalent net interest income of $6,817,000 increased by $430,000
or 6.73% from 1995 levels. In 1995, tax equivalent net interest income of
$6,387,000 decreased by $591,000 or 6.73% from 1994 levels. Climbing interest
rates during the period of March, 1994 through July, 1995 were detrimental to
the Bank in that interest expense increased faster than interest income.
However, since July of 1995, rates have decreased or remained stable through
1996 and have increased net interest income.

rate and volume variances.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $290,000 in 1996; $314,000 in 1995; and
$410,000 in 1994. As of December 31, 1996, the provision was 1.08% of loans
outstanding. Charge-offs net of recoveries were $309,632 in 1996; $287,236 in
1995 and $392,092 in 1994. Management expects the percentage of loans charged
off in the future to be at approximately the same level as December 31, 1996.
Other Income
SVB&T Corporation experienced a slight increase in Other Income for 1996.
Other Income increased by $96,000. Stated as a percentage of net interest
income, Other Income was 24.50% for 1996, 25.43% for 1995, and 25.23% for 1994.
The primary source for Other Income is trust income. Other sources of non-
interest income consist of service charges on deposit accounts, insurance
income, service fees, ATM foreign service fees, rental income, and other
miscellaneous charges.
There has been a consistent decrease in insurance and claims processing income.
This is due largely to the complete elimination of the claims processing
department during 1995. The gross income for that department in 1995 was
$138,804 and $335,545 for 1994. The decrease for 1996 for insurance income was
$152,854.
Other Expenses
Total Other Expenses increased slightly for 1996. 1996 Other Expense total was
$5,557,901 compared to $5,467,944 and $5,666,190 for 1995 and 1994
respectively.
Salaries and employees benefits are the largest components of Other Expense.
Salaries and employee benefits totaled $3,235,503 for 1996. This was 58.21% of
total Other Expenses. This compares with 54.24% in 1995 and 55.10% in 1994.
The number of employees has remained consistent over the past several years.
Increases in the salaries and employee benefit expenses represent normal pay
increases for the Bank's employees.
Hospitalization and disability insurance increased by $73,401 during 1996.
This is a 43.20% increase for the year compared to a 31.25% increase in 1995
and 13.88% in 1994. The Bank is self-insured in regard to hospitalization
insurance. Expense level depends on claims filed.
The Bank experienced a $192,564 (98.97%) decrease in FDIC insurance expense.
This is due to a rate reduction which became effective the last quarter of
1995.
Postage expense declined by $18,773. This is largely due to a campaign to
convert customers to combined statement which in turn decreased the number of
mailings required.
The Bank continues its efforts to maintain control over its operational costs
and has implemented several cost saving programs to further improve operating
efficiencies.
Income Tax
SVB&T Corporation records income tax expense based on the transactions reported
in its financial statements, consisting of taxes currently payable and deferred
tax. Deferred taxes result because of the recognition of certain items of
income and expense in different years for financial statement and tax purposes.
These differences relate primarily to the gain or loss on available-for-sale
investment securities, loan losses, depreciation, and loan origination fees.
Differences between the effective tax rate on SVB&T Corporation's income before
income tax (as reported in the consolidated statement income) and the federal
statutory rate of 34% result from tax exempt interest income, state income
taxes, and alternative minimum taxes. Note 10 of the consolidated financial
statements contain additional information about SVB&T Corporation's income
taxes.
Income tax expense for 1996 was $650,000 compared to $450,000 in 1995 and
$469,359 in 1994. The effective tax rate was 28.1% in 1996, 27.1% in 1995, and
25.5% in 1994. The effective rate increased in 1996 compared to 1995 and in
1995 compared to 1994 because of reduced tax exempt interest income in each
year. Tax exempt income decreased 33% from 1995 to 1996 and 31% from 1994 to
1995. This was a planned decrease designed to get the company out of an
alternative minimum tax position. In 1996, the company paid no alternative
minimum tax and utilized an alternative minimum tax credit carryover from 1995
of $126,000. No carryover remains at December 31, 1996.
Financial Condition
As of December 31, 1996 total assets decreased to $184,362,094, a 2.90%
decrease from December 31, 1995 total of $189,876,775. Average assets in 1996
of $190,442,000 were $4,333,000 greater than the 1995 average of $186,109,000.
Total deposits decreased to $151,595,049 at December 31, 1996 from $171,764,576
at December 31, 1995 a decrease of $20,169,527 or 11.74%. The bank had a
planned reduction of interest bearing deposits that was replaced with
alternative funding sources. Management projects a long-term deposit growth of
approximately 3%. The actual growth rate may vary due to overall economic
conditions in the markets served.
Net loans at year-end 1996 were $121,530,494 up $10,380,929 or 9.3% above the
1995 year-end total of $111,149,565. Average loans outstanding of $117,929,000
in 1996 increased by $8,123,000 or 7.4% over the 1995 average loans outstanding
of $109,363,000. Loan growth was funded primarily by a reduction in federal
funds sold and borrowing.
Total investment securities at year-end 1996 were $49,945,260, and at year-end
1995 were $56,908,873. Investment securities have been stated at market value
since 1993, when the Bank adopted the FASB No. 115 accounting and classified
all securities as available for sale.
Uses of Funds
Money Market Investments
Money market investments (federal funds sold and certificates of deposits with
other banks) are used by the Corporation to meet lending and liquidity
requirements. At December 31, 1996, money market investments decreased by
$9,550,000 or 100.0% from the 1995 total of $9,550,000. This decrease funded
the increase in loans for 1996.
Investment Securities
The investment security portfolio is used as a means of investing funds over
and above those needed for lending and liquidity requirements. Investment
securities are purchased with the intent and ability to hold until maturity.
However, all securities are categorized as available for sale. Increases or
decreases in the market value of securities are charged directly to stockholder
equity.
During 1996, average investment securities decreased by $164,000 or 0.29% as
compared to $56,367,000 for 1995. Total average loans increased by $8,566,000
and average federal funds sold decreased $3,672,000.
In 1996, tax-free investments of state and political subdivision matured and
reinvested into taxable government securities. The Corporation was in an
alternative minimum tax position and did not need the tax advantage of tax-free
securities. However, the Corporation is now out of the alternative minimum tax
position and will invest in tax-free investments during 1997.
In 1995, several tax-free securities were sold and reinvested into taxable
securities. The purpose of this action was better to distribute income for the
Corporation in its alternative minimum tax position. Total tax-free
investments were $5.7 million.
The following table presents an analysis of the investment securities portfolio
for 1996, 1995 and 1994.

Loans
The loans outstanding at December 31, 1996 were $122,859,789. This represents
a 9.2% increase over the total loans outstanding on December 31, 1995.
Real estate loans remain the largest component of the loan portfolio at
$67,859,219. This is an increase of $3,274,313 or an increase of 5.1% over the
previous year. The residential mortgage portfolio is our primary markets
remained relatively stable. The majority of the increase is the result of loan
participation purchased to supplement the Bank's need for quality loans when
the primary markets cannot provide adequate volume.
Individual loans for household and other personal expenditures is the second
largest loan category for the Bank. This loan category increased $3,110,585 or
8.8%. This growth level is consistent with the 1995 increase of 9.49%. The
bank continues to look for direct lending opportunities as well as the careful
purchase of dealer contracts.
Commercial and industrial loans grew from $12,267,206 in 1995 to $15,133,405 at
December 31, 1996. That represents a 23.4% increase. While we always seek
loan opportunities in our primary markets first, the purchase of loan
participation continues as a method of servicing adequate loan volume.
Construction lines of credit and agricultural loans continue to be a minor
factor in the Bank's loan portfolio. The Bank is not planning any aggressive
growth in these areas.
Following is a schedule showing the breakdown of loans by type of loan and the
maturity schedule of the loan portfolio.

December 31, 1995 equity of $16,372,127. The increase of $957,389 was a result
of earnings $1,660,961 less dividends of $354,256 less unrealized losses on
securities available for sale of $349,316. Capital ratios are used by Federal
bank regulators to measure a bank's strength. The Bank's ratios are well above
Federal requirements.
Source of Funds
Deposits
The main source of funding for earning assets are deposits. During 1996, the
average deposits of $170,795,000 funded over 95% of the average earning assets.
Average total deposits for 1996 increased by $1,496,000, or 1% as compared to
1995 average deposit totals, which increased by $175,000 from 1994 or less than
1%.
There has been a relatively minor movement in average deposits over the past
two years. Many customers are seeking higher rates of return on investments and
have moved into alternative investments such as stocks and mutual funds. The
total of interest-bearing deposits have reduced in the last quarter of 1996.
Management has funded this reduction with the advance from the Federal Home
Loan Bank and Federal Funds purchased. Management will seek to increase
deposits at a time when deposits can be lent or invested at a profitable
spread.

Risk Management
Lending and Loan Administration
Loan administration for the Bank is the responsibility of the President and the
senior lending officer of the Bank. The board deems these officers have the
knowledge and experience necessary to satisfactorily manage the lending
activities of the Bank.
Lending authority is granted to individual officers as the board feels is
appropriate. For loans exceeding an individual officer's limit, a loan
committee structure is in place to allow the timely and prudent review of loan
requests. Loans above certain predetermined limits must be reviewed and
approved by two board members prior to approval of the loan.
A presentation is made at each board meeting regarding the operation of the
loan department. Topics discussed include current activities, watch list and
non-accrual loans, and any other loan-related issue that should be brought to
the board. Reports covering the activities of the loan department are prepared
for each board member.
A loan review committee reviews all loan review activities including the
calculation of the loan loss reserve necessary to accommodate loans that may be
charged off at some future time.
The loan loss reserve is calculated monthly. It is based on the historical
performance of the loan portfolio as well as current and projected conditions
for specific credits. The Bank's loan loss experience is summarized below:

Balance as of December 31 1,330 1,349 1,322 1,304 1,276
Loans are placed on non-accrual status when a payment (principal and/or
interest) is more than 90 days past due. All income on these loans is then
recognized on a cash basis until the loan is paid off or management believes
that the quality of the loan has improved enough to warrant returning the loan
to accrual status.
Non-performing loans are loans on non-accrual and assets such as other real
estate and repossessions being held for sale. Following is a schedule of those
loan categories for the previous five years.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
SVB&T Corporation considers management of liquidity and interest rate
sensitivity to be two of its most important responsibilities. Liquidity
requirements arise from loan demand and deposit withdrawals. The objective of
liquidity management is to match the availability of funds with anticipated
loan and withdrawal activity. Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to
match sufficient amounts of interest sensitive assets with interest sensitive
liabilities. A matching of the assets and liabilities results in more
consistent earnings and provides protection in case of sudden interest rate
changes.
Liquidity requirements are monitored on a daily basis. Main sources of short-
term liquidity are cash due from banks and federal funds sold. Longer term
liquidity planning includes funds available from normal maturities of
certificates of deposit with other bank maturities of investment securities,
loan principal payments income from operations and new deposits. These sources
of funds are sufficient to meet the company's liquidity needs.
In the management of interest rate sensitivity, a cumulative sensitivity ratio
of less than 100% is normal in the one year or less repricing time period.
Seventy-eight percent of the total interest bearing liabilities reprice in one
year or less. The Bank has more interest-bearing liabilities repricing during
this time period than it has interest-earning assets repricing. This will
benefit the Bank during an interest rate environment of lowering rates or
stable rates.
The Company realizes the potential for income reduction should interest rates
increase. At that time, restructuring of the investment portfolio would occur
to increase the sensitivity ratio to a manageable position.
The chart on this and the following page shows the Bank's interest rate
sensitivity position as of December 31, 1996.

Board Committees and Meetings
The Board of Directors of the Corporation and the Bank hold regular bimonthly
meetings and other special meetings. The Board of Directors of the Corporation
held seven (7) meetings, and the Board of Directors of the Bank held seven (7)
meetings, during 1996. In addition to meeting as a group, all members of each
Board devote their time and talents to certain of the following standing
committees: Executive Committee, Audit Committee, Trust Committee, Executive
Compensation Committee, and Loan Committee. The Corporation does not have a
nomination committee; instead, nominations are made by the Board of Directors
as a whole.
The Audit Committee reviews significant audit and accounting principles,
policies, and practices, reviews the performance of the internal auditing
functions and reviews examination reports of the Federal and State regulatory
agencies. In carrying out its duties, the Committee meets with the independent
auditors, approves the services to be performed by the independent auditors and
reviews the degree of independence of the auditors. The members of the Audit
Committee are Messrs. H. E. Thyen, R. J. Sermersheim (Chairman of the
Committee), Brian K. Habig and J. C. Tucker. The Audit Committee met six (6)
times in 1996.
The Executive Compensation Committee is to review and recommend to the
directors salary and bonus programs for the Senior Bank Officers. The members
of the Executive Compensation Committee are Messrs. R. J. Sermersheim, Maurice
Kuper and J. C. Tucker (Chairman of the Committee). The Executive Compensation
Committee met twice in 1996.
Item 11. Executive Compensation
Compensation of Officers
Compensation Committee Report. Officers of the Corporation are not compensated
for their services in such capacity. All officers of the Corporation are also
officers of the Bank and are compensated in their capacity as Bank officers.
Decisions on compensation of the Bank's executives are made by the Board of
Directors of the Bank, upon the recommendation of the Executive Compensation
Committee of the Board. Each member of the Compensation Committee is a non-
employee director. Pursuant to rules designed to enhance disclosure of
corporation policies toward executive compensation, set forth below is a report
submitted by Messrs. J. C. Tucker (Chairman), R. J. Sermersheim and Maurice
Kuper in their capacity as the Board's Executive Compensation Committee
addressing the Bank's compensation policies for 1996 as they affected all
executive officers of the Bank and Mr. Seals who, for 1996, was the Bank's most
highly paid executive whose total annual salary and bonus exceeded $100,000.
Compensation Policies Toward Executive Officers. The Executive Compensation
Committee's executive compensation policies are designed to provide competitive
levels of compensation to the executive officers and to reward officers for
satisfactory performance of the Corporation and the Bank as a whole. There are
no established goals or standards relating to performance of the Corporation or
the Bank which have been utilized in setting the base salary portion of an
individual employee's compensation.
Base Salary. Each executive officer is reviewed individually by the Executive
Compensation Committee. The Executive Compensation Committee also reviews
various banking salary surveys provided by other entities which provide
information concerning average salary information within the banking industry.
The background data for this information is typically generated from over 100
banks located in the Midwest with approximately $100 million to $200 million in
assets. The salary portion of the executive officers' compensation is then
typically established at a level near the average salary compensation of
officers included in the survey with similar job responsibilities.
Annual Bonus Amounts. The Bank's Incentive Bonus Plan ("Bonus Plan") for
executive officers (those with titles of Senior Vice President and higher) for
1996 was based on the Bank's return on average assets (ROA) and the executives
officers base salary. The "Bonus Plan" payment to executive officers was
twenty-five percent of their base pay for 1996. Eighty percent was paid in
1996 and twenty percent was carried forward and paid in 1997. Other officers
receive bonuses based on net income of the Bank. Under the "Bonus Plan," a
bonus pool of seven percent of the Bank's net income is established and paid
bi-annually to these officers.
Other Compensation Plans. At various times in the past the Bank has adopted
certain broad-based employee benefit plans in which the senior executives are
permitted to participate on the same terms as non-executive employees who meet
applicable eligibility criteria, subject to any legal limitations on the amount
that may be contributed or the benefits that may be payable under the plans.
Benefits. The Bank provides medical and pension benefits to the senior
executives that are generally available to other Bank employees. The amount of
perquisites, as determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission relating to executive compensation, did not exceed 10% of
salary and bonus for fiscal 1996.
Mr. Seal's 1996 Compensation. Regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission require that the Compensation Committee disclose the Committee's
basis for compensation reported for the C.E.O. Mr. Seal's salary and bonus in
1996 were determined in the same manner as discussed above for other senior
executives. The Board of Directors and the Executive Compensation Committee
believes that Mr. Seals has managed the Bank well.
Compensation Committee Insider Participation
During the past fiscal year, Mr. Seals, the Bank's Chief Executive Officer,
served on the Board of Directors, but did not serve on the Executive
Compensation Committee. Mr. Seals did not participate in any discussion or
vote with respect to his salary or bonus as an executive officer and excused
himself from the room during the discussion by the Board of Directors of his
compensation.
Summary Compensation Table
The following table sets forth for the fiscal years ending December 31, 1996,
1995 and 1994 the cash compensation paid by the Bank, as well as certain other
compensation paid or awarded during those years, to the Chief Executive Officer
and any other executive officer whose total annual salary and bonus exceeded
$100,000 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.
Name and Year Annual Compensation
Principal Position Salary (1) Bonus (2)
Ronald G. Seals 1996 $115,500 $23,100
President, C.E.O. 1995 $108,000 $13,420
and Director 1994 $104,000 $15,168
(1) While officers enjoy certain perquisites, such perquisites do not exceed
the lesser of $50,000 or 10% of such officer's salary and bonus and are
not required to be disclosed by applicable rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
(2) The bonus amounts are payable pursuant to the Bank's Incentive Bonus Plan
of the Bank, as described in the "Compensation Committee Report."
Employee Benefit Plans
Profit Sharing Retirement Plan. The Bank sponsors a tax-qualified profit
sharing retirement plan which includes, effective as of January 1, 1996, a
qualified cash or deferred (i.e., "401(k)") arrangement and a provision for
voluntary after-tax contributions ("Profit Sharing Plan"). The Profit Sharing
Plan covers substantially all employees of the Bank; an employee becomes a
participant on the first January 1st or July 1st which coincides with or
immediately follows the date you became an employee. If you became an Employee
on or after January 1, 1996, you will be eligible to participate on the Plan
Entry Date which falls on or after the first twelve consecutive (12) month
period during which you have completed at least ont thousand (1,000) hours of
service. The twelve (12) month period begins when you first commence
employment and on each Plan Year beginning on or after that date. The Bank
makes discretionary "profit sharing" contributions under the Profit Sharing
Plan and allows participants to make salary deferral and rollover
contributions. Participants' salary deferral contributions may be made, on
pre-income tax basis, in an amount ranging from 1% to 12% of the participant's
"compensation" (as defined). Participants' salary deferral and rollover
contributions are fully vested when made; discretionary profit sharing
contributions are subject to a vesting schedule pursuant to which participants
become vested on a graduated basis, at the rate of 10% per year for the first
four full years of service and at the rate of 20% per year thereafter so that a
participant will become fully vested in the Bank's profit sharing contributions
after completing seven full years of service. In addition, a participant will
attributable to the Bank's discretionary profit sharing contributions on death,
"disability" (as defined), upon attaining age 60 and completing 10 years of
service, and upon attaining age 65. All amounts contributed to the Profit
Sharing Plan are invested by the Bank, as Trustee, for the benefit of all
participants and their designated beneficiaries.
Upon termination of employment with the Bank or Corporation for reason, a
participant (or his or her designated beneficiary) will be entitled to receive
the vested balance of his or her account under the Profit Sharing Plan.
Participants may elect to receive the vested balance of their account in either
a single lump sum or in monthly, quarterly or annual installments over a fixed
period of time, not to exceed the life expectancy of the participant or the
joint life and last survivor expectancy of the participant and his or her
designated beneficiary. The Profit Sharing Plan also provides for the
distribution of the participant salary deferrals on account of "financial
hardship" (as defined) and authorizes the making of loans to participants from
that portion of their Profit Sharing Plan accounts attributable to salary
deferral contributions.
Director Fees
Directors of the Bank receive director's fees of $600 per month. In addition,
directors which hold committee positions may be compensated from $25 to $100
per meeting attended. No separate fees are paid for services as a director of
the Corporation.

and are expected to be made on substantially the same terms, including interest
rates and collateral on loans, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with other persons and did not involve and are not expected to
involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other
unfavorable features.

connection with or resulting from or arising out of any claim, action, suit
or proceeding, provided that such person is wholly successful with respect
thereto or acted in good faith in what he reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of this Corporation or such other
corporation, as the case may be, and, in addition, in any criminal action
or proceeding in which he had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. As used herein, "claim, action, suit or proceeding"
shall include any claim, action, suit or proceeding (whether brought by or
in the right of this Corporation or such other corporation or otherwise),
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether actual or
threatened or in connection with an appeal relating thereto, in which a
director, officer or employee of this Corporation may become involved, as a
party or otherwise,

employee of this Corporation or such other corporation or arising

penalties, and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of a director,
officer or employee, but shall not in any event include any liability or

securities of the Corporation in violation of the law. The termination of
any claim, action, suit or proceeding, by judgement, settlement (whether
with or without court approval) or conviction or upon a plea of guilty or
of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that
a director, officer or employee did not meet the standards of conduct set

Any such director, officer or employee who has been wholly successful
with respect to any such claim, action, suit or proceeding shall be
entitled to indemnification as a matter of right. Except as provided in
the preceding sentence, any indemnification hereunder shall be made only if
(i) the Board of Directors acting by a quorum consisting of Directors who
are not parties to or who have been wholly successful with respect to such
claim, action, suit or proceeding shall find that the director, officer or
employee has met the standards of conduct set forth in the preceding
paragraph; or (ii) independent legal counsel shall deliver to the
Corporation their written opinion that such director, officer or employee
has met such standards of conduct.
If several claims, issues or matters of action are involved, any such
person may be entitled to indemnification as to some matters even though he
is not entitled as to other matters,
The Corporation may advance expenses to or, where appropriate, may at
its expense undertake the defense of any such director, officer or employee
upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such
expenses if it should ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder.
The provisions of this Section shall be applicable to claims, actions,
suits or proceedings made or commenced after the adoption hereof, whether
arising from acts or omissions to act during, before or after the adoption
hereof.
The rights of indemnification provided hereunder shall be in addition to
any rights to which any person concerned may otherwise be entitled by
contract or as a matter of law shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of any such person.

person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation against any
liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any capacity or
arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would
have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions
of this Section or otherwise.

Directors of the Corporation may from time to time distribute to its
shareholders out of the capital surplus of the Corporation a portion of its

class of stock held by such shareholder in writing of any changes in their
addresses from time to time, and failure so to do shall relieve the
Corporation, its shareholders, directors, officers, transfer agent and
registrar of liability for failure to direct notices, dividends, or other
documents or property to an address other than the one appearing upon the
records of the transfer agent and registrar of the Corporation.
Section 10. Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. The Corporation

certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged
to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of
that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost,
stolen or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or
certificates, the Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition
precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen
or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his legal representative, to
give the Corporation a bond in such sum and in such form as it may direct
to indemnify against any claim that may be made against the Corporation
with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed or the issuance of such new certificate. The Corporation, in its
discretion, may authorize the issuance of such new certificates without any
bond when in its judgment it is proper to do so.

vote thereon or shall be authorized by and consistent with a plan approved

shares having a par value, other than treasury shares to be issued upon the
exercise of such rights or options, shall not be less than the par value
thereof.

shall be made in writing and shall be delivered or mailed to the president
of the Corporation not less than 10 days nor more than 50 days prior to any
meeting of shareholders called for the election of directors. Such
notification shall contain the following information to the extent known to
the notifying shareholder: (a) the name and address of each proposed
nominee; (b) the principal occupation of each proposed nominee; (c) the
total number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that will be
voted for each proposed nominee; (d) the name and residence address of the

ARTICLE V
Board of Directors
Section 1. Election, Number and Term of Office. Directors shall be
elected at the annual meeting of shareholders, or, if not so elected, at a
special meeting of the shareholders called for that purpose, by the holders
of the shares of stock entitled by the Articles of Incorporation to elect
Directors.
The number of Directors of the Corporation to be elected by the holders
of the shares of stock entitled by the Articles of Incorporation to elect
Directors shall be twelve (12) unless changed by amendment of this section.
All Directors elected by the holders of such shares, except in the case
of earlier resignation, removal or death, shall hold office until their
respective successors are chosen and qualified. Directors need not be
shareholders of the Corporation.
Any vacancy on the Board of Directors caused by an increase in the
number of Directors shall be filled by a majority vote of the members of
the Board of Directors, until the next annual or special meeting of the
shareholders or, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, such vacancy
may be filled by vote of the shareholders at a special meeting called for
that purpose. No decrease in the number of Directors shall have the effect
of shortening the term of any incumbent Director.
Section 2. Vacancies. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors
caused by resignation, death or other incapacity shall be filled by a
majority vote of the remaining members of the Board of Directors, until the
next annual meeting of the shareholders. If the vote of the remaining
members of the Board shall result in a tie, such vacancy, at the discretion
of the Board of Directors, may be filled by vote of the shareholders at a
special meeting called for that purpose.
Section 3. Annual Meeting of Directors. The Board of Directors shall
meet each year immediately after the annual meeting of the shareholders, at
the place where such meeting of the shareholders has been held either
within or without the State of Indiana, for the purpose of organization,
election of officers, and consideration of any other business that may
properly come before the meeting. No notice of any kind to either old or
new members of the Board of Directors for such annual meeting shall be
necessary.
Section 4, Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of
Directors shall be held at such times and places, either within or without
the State of Indiana, as may be fixed by the Directors. Such regular
meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice or upon such
notice as may be fixed by the Directors.
Section 5. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board, the President, or by
not less than a majority of the members of the Board of Directors. Notice
of the time and place, either within or without the State of Indiana, of a
special meeting shall be served upon or telephoned to each Director at
least twenty-four hours, or mailed, telegraphed or cabled to each Director
at his usual place of business or residence at least forty-eight hours,
prior to the time of the meeting. Directors, in lieu of such notice, may
sign a written waiver of notice either before the time of the meeting, at
the meeting, or after the meeting. Attendance by a director in person at
any such special meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice.
Section 6. Quorum. A majority of the actual number of Directors
elected and qualified, from time to time, shall be necessary to constitute
a quorum for the transaction of any business except the filling of
vacancies, and the act of a majority of the Directors present at the
meeting, at which a majority of the Directors present at the meeting, at
which a quorum is present, shall be the act of the Board of Directors,
unless the act of a greater number is required by The Indiana General
Corporation Act, by the Articles of Incorporation, or by these By-Laws. A
Director, who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors, at which
action on any corporate matter is taken, shall be conclusively presumed to
have assented to the action taken, unless (a) his dissent shall be
affirmatively stated by him at and before the adjournment of such meeting
(in which event the fact of such dissent shall be entered by the secretary
of the meeting in the minutes of the meeting), or (b) he shall forward such
dissent by registered mail to the Secretary of the Corporation immediately
after the adjournment of the meeting. The right of dissent provided for by
either clause (a) or clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence shall
not be available, in respect of any matter acted upon at any meeting, to a
Director who voted at the meeting in favor of such matter and did not
change his vote prior to the time that the result of the vote on such
matter was announced by the chairman of such meeting.
Section 7. Consent Action by Directors. Any action required or
permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any
committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if prior to such action a
written consent to such action is signed by all members of the Board of
Directors or such committee, as the case may be, and such written consent
is filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or
committee.
Section 8. Removal of Directors. Any or all members of the Board of
Directors may be removed, with or without cause at a meeting of
shareholders called expressly for that purpose by a vote of the holders of
not less than a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock then
entitled to vote at the election of directors.
Section 9. Dividends. The Board of Directors shall have power, subject
to any restrictions contained in The Indiana General Corporation Act or in
the Articles of Incorporation and out of funds legally available therefor,
to declare and pay dividends upon the outstanding capital stock of the
Corporation as and when they deem expedient. Before declaring any
dividend, there may be set aside out of any funds of the Corporation
available for dividends such sum or sums as the Board of Directors from
time to time in their absolute discretion deem proper for working capital,
or as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies or for such other
purposes as the Board of Directors shall deem conducive to the interest of
the Corporation and the Board of Directors may modify or abolish any such
reserve in the manner in which it was created.
Section 10. Fixing of Record Date to Determine Shareholders Entitled to
Receive Corporate Benefits. The Board of Directors may fix a day and hour
not exceeding 50 days preceding the date fixed for payment of any dividend
or for the delivery of evidence of rights, or for the distribution of other
corporate benefits, or for a determination if shareholders for any other
purpose, as a record time for the determination of the shareholders
entitled to receive any such dividend, rights or distribution, and in such
case only shareholders of record at the time so fixed shall be entitled to
receive such dividend, rights or distribution. If no record date is fixed
for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive payment of a
dividend, the end of the day on which the resolution of the Board of
Directors declaring such dividend is adopted shall be the record date for
such determination.
Section 11. Interest of Directors in Contracts. Any contract or other
transaction between the Corporation or any corporation in which this
Corporation owns a majority of the capital stock shall be valid and
binding, notwithstanding that the directors or officers of this Corporation
are identical or that some or all of the directors or officers, or both,
are also directors or officers of such other corporation.
Any contract or other transaction between the Corporation and one or
more of its directors or members or employees, or between the Corporation
and any firm of which one or more of its directors are members or employees
or in which they are interested, or between the Corporation and any
corporation or association of which one or more of its directors are
stockholders, members, directors, officers, or employees or in which they
are interested, shall be valid for all purposes, notwithstanding the
presence of such director of directors at the meeting of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation which acts upon, or in reference to, such
contract or transaction and notwithstanding his or their participation is
such action, if the fact of such interest shall be disclosed or known to
the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors shall authorize, approve
and ratify such contract or transaction by a vote of a majority of the
directors present, such interested director or directors to be counted in
determining whether a quorum is present, but not to be counted in
calculating the majority of such quorum necessary to carry such vote. This
Section shall not be construed to invalidate any contract or other
transaction which would otherwise be valid under the common and statutory
law applicable thereto.
Section 12. Committees. The Board of Directors may, by resolution
adopt by a majority of the actual number of Directors elected and
qualified, from time to time, designate from among its members an executive
committee and one or more other committees, each of which, to the extent
provided in the resolution, the Articles of Incorporation, or these By-
Laws, may exercise all of the authority of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation, including, but not limited to, the authority to issue and sell
or prove any contract to issue and sell, securities or shares of the
Corporation or designate the terms of a series of a class of securities or
shares of the Corporation. The terms which may be affixed by each such
committee include, but are not limited to, the price, dividend rate, and
provisions of redemption, a sinking fund, conversion, voting, or
preferential rights or other features of securities or class or series of a
class of shares. Each such committee may have full power to adopt a final
resolution which sets forth those terms and to authorize a statement of
such terms to be filed within the Secretary of State. However, no such
committee has the authority to declare dividends or distributions, amend
the Articles of Incorporation or the By-Laws, approve a plan of merger or
consolidation even if such plan does not require shareholder approval,
reduce earned or capital surplus, authorize or approve the reacquisition of
shares unless pursuant to a general formula or method specified by the
Board of Directors, or recommend to the shareholders a voluntary
dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation thereof. No member of any
such committee shall continue to be a member thereof after he ceases to be
a Director of the Corporation. The calling and holding of meetings of any
such committee and its method of procedure shall be determined by the Board
of Directors. A member of the Board of Directors shall not be liable for
any action taken by any such committee if he is not a member of that
committee and has acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believes is in the best interest of the Corporation.

ARTICLE VII
Indemnification
Section 1. Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees. Every
person who is or was a director, officer or employee of this Corporation or
of any other corporation for which he is or was serving in any capacity at
the request of this Corporation shall be indemnified by this Corporation
against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by him in
connection with or resulting from or arising out of any claim, action, suit
or proceeding, provided that such person is wholly successful with respect
thereto or acted in good faith in what he reasonablye believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of this Corporation or such other
corporation, as the case may be, and, in addition, in any criminal action
or proceeding in which he had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. As used herein, "claim, action, suit or proceeding"
shall include any claim, action, suit or proceeding (whether brought by or
in the right of this Corporation or such other corporation or otherwise),
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether actual or
threatened or in connection with an appeal relating thereto, in which a
director, officer or employee of this Corporation may become involved, as a
party or otherwise,
(i) by reason of his being or having been a director, officer or
employee of this Corporation or such other corporation or arising
out of his status as such or
(ii) by reason of any past or future action taken or not taken by him
in any such capacity, whether or not he continues to be such at
the time such liability or expense is incurred.
The terms "liability" and "expense" shall include, but shall not be limited
to, attorneys' fees and disbursements, amounts of judgements, fines or
penalties, and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of a director,
officer or employee, but shall not in any event include any liability or
expenses on account of profits realized by him in the purchase or sale of
securities of the Corporation in violation of the law. The termination of
any claim, action, suit or proceeding, by judgement, settlement (whether
with or without court approval) or conviction or upon a plea of guilty or
of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that
a director, officer or employee did not meet the standards of conduct set
forth in this paragraph.
Any such director, officer or employee who has been wholly successful
with respect to any such claim, action, suit or proceeding shall be
entitled to indemnification as a matter of right. Except as provided in
the preceding sentence, any indemnification hereunder shall be made only if
(i) the Board of Directors acting by a quorum consisting of Directors who
are not parties to or who have been wholly successful with respect to such
claim, action, suit or proceeding shall find that the director, officer or
employee has met the standards of conduct set forth in the preceding
paragraph; or (ii) independent legal counsel shall deliver to the
Corporation their written opinion that such director, officer or employee
has met such standards of conduct.
If several claims, issues or matters of action are involved, any such
person may be entitled to indemnification as to some matters even though he
is not entitled as to other matters.
The Corporation may advance expenses to or, where appropriate, may at
its expense undertake the defense of any such director, officer or employee
upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf or such person to repay such
expenses if it should ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder.
The provisions of this Section shall be applicable to claims, actions,
suits or proceedings made or commenced after the adoption hereof, whether
arising from acts or omissions to act during, before or after the adoption
hereof.
The rights of indemnification provided hereunder shall be in addition to
any rights to which any person concerned may otherwise be entitled by
contract or as a matter of law and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of any such person.
The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation as director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation
against any liability asserted against him incurred by him in any capacity
or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would
have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions
of this Section or otherwise.
ARTICLE VIII
Amendments
The power to make, alter, amend, or repeal these By-Laws is vested in
the Board of Directors, but the affirmative vote of a majority if the
actual number of directors elected and qualified, from time to time, shall
be necessary to effect any alteration, amendment or repeal of these By-
Laws.
To Our Shareholders, EXHIBIT 13
The beginning of a new year offers an opportunity to review past successes and
to prepare for the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. The year 1996
was marked by increased earnings and by expansion of our services and
facilities. This report also shows that SVB&T is in sound condition and fully
prepared to move forward.
The Corporation posted record earnings in 1996 of $1.661 million, a 37%
increase over 1995 earnings. Per share earnings were $4.45 in 1996, as compared
to $3.25 per share the prior year. Cash dividends paid to shareholders in 1996
totaled $354 thousand, as compared to $343 thousand in 1995. At the close of
1996, loans had increased 9.3%, with an outstanding loan total of $122.5
million. During the past year, loan interest income rose $584 thousand, while
interest expense decreased $157 thousand. Thus, the Bank's efficiency ratio
improved from 70% to 66% which is very close to our operational goal.
As a result of a planned reduction in the Bank's interest-sensitive deposits,
total assets decreased from $189.8 million to $184.6 million during 1996. These
deposits will be replaced with more stable, less rate-sensitive funds.
The Trust Department now manages over $440 million in market value assets. It
has continued to grow, following a plan of enhanced services and products for
our customers. In 1996, three employees became licensed to sell annuities, one
of several new product offerings which provide additional fee income
opportunities.
On April 15, 1996, the Corporation expanded its service area with the purchase
of a new branch facility in Borden, Indiana. This new office exceeded
management's expectations, securing deposits of $1.340 million and loans of
$977 thousand in less than nine months of operation. Our designated market area
now includes Orange, Dubois, and portions of Clark and Washington counties.
In a continuing search for other opportunities to improve profitability,
operational efficiency and customer service, management is exploring a variety
of enhanced electronic-based delivery systems for banking services. In 1997,
your Corporation will install two new automatic teller machines (ATMs). And,
management is evaluating other services such as checking account debit cards
and account inquiries through enhanced on-line ATM operations.
As a community bank, it is our continuing desire and goal to be a comprehensive
provider of superior personal banking services, while improving our cost
structure, offering competitive products and staying attuned to the new
technology which the next generation of bank customers are embracing. By doing
so, there will always be a profitable place for our Bank and for shareholder
opportunity.
Your continuing loyalty and confidence in our efforts are greatly appreciated
by all of us at Springs Valley Bank & Trust Company.
Sincerely,
ARNOLD F. HABIG RONALD G. SEALS
CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD PRESIDENT & CEO

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of SVB&T Corporation and Subsidiary (the
Bank) are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
conform to general practices within the banking industry. The more significant
principles used in preparing the financial statements are briefly described
below.
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of SVB&T Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Springs Valley
Bank & Trust Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated.
Nature of Operations. SVB&T Corporation operates under a charter from the
State of Indiana and provides full banking services, including trust services.
As a state bank, SVB&T Corporation is subject to regulation by the Department
of Financial Institutions of the State of Indiana and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. The area served by the Bank is primarily Orange, Dubois
and the surrounding counties in Southern Indiana.
Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include cash, due from
banks and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one day
periods.
Investment Securities Available for Sale. The Bank buys debt securities with
the intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. However,
management has determined that all debt securities would be available for sale
in response to certain situations, such as changes in interest rates and
prepayment risk, need for liquidity, changes in availability and yield on
alternative investments, and changes in funding sources and terms. At December
31, 1996 and 1995, debt securities are reported at estimated market values in
the statement of financial condition. Unrealized holding gains and losses are
excluded from earnings and are reported as a net amount in a separate component
of shareholders equity. Accredit discounts and amortized premiums are included
in earnings. Gains or losses on dispositions are computed using the specific
identification method. (See Note 2)
Investment Securities Held to Maturity. In 1996, The Bank acquired stock in
the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. This stock has been classified as
held to maturity and is carried at cost.
Loans. Interest income on commercial loans, simple interest installment loans
and real estate mortgage loans is recognized based on the outstanding principal
balances at the stated rates. Real estate mortgage loan origination fees and
costs are amortized over the life of the loan. Interest income for add-on
installment loans is recognized by the rule of 78's method which approximates
the interest method. Accrual of interest income on loans and impaired loans
is discontinued when payments have become delinquent for 90 days. Upon
non-accrual status, all accrued interest receivable on a loan is written off.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Any subsequent payments are applied to interest until all interest due is
totally paid. Any remaining amounts are applied to principal.
As part of its interest rate risk management, the Bank sells fixed rate
mortgage loans into the secondary market. At December 31, 1996, approximately
$1,182,000 of fixed rate mortgage loans were available for sale. These loans
are carried at cost which approximates market value.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowances for loan losses is an amount that
management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on existing
loans that may become uncollectible, based on evaluations of collectibility and
prior loan loss experience. The evaluations take into consideration such
factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall
portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and current economic
conditions and trends that may affect the borrowers ability to pay. The
allowance is established by a provision for loan losses charged to expense.
Loans are written off against the allowance when management believes that the
collectibility of the principal is unlikely.
Buildings and Equipment. Buildings and equipment are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation. Buildings are depreciated on the straight line
method using lives ranging from 10 to 40 years. Equipment is depreciated on
the straight line method using lives ranging from 3 to 10 years.
Other Real Estate. Real estate acquired in foreclosures is carried at the
lower of the outstanding loan balance plus accrued interest or fair value of
the property. Amounts necessary to write loans down to fair value are charged
to the allowance for loan losses.
Income Tax. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions
reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus
deferred taxes, related primarily to differences between the basis of
available-for-sale investment securities, allowance for loan losses,
accumulated depreciation and loan origination fees. The deferred tax asset or
liability represents the future tax return consequences of those differences.
SVB&T Corporation and Springs Valley Bank & Trust file consolidated income tax
returns.
Net Income Per Share. Net income per share of common stock is computed by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period.
Trust Fees. Trust fees are recorded on the accrual basis.
NOTE 2. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
Effective in 1995, the Bank adopted FASB Statements No. 114 and No. 118, which
address accounting by creditors for impairment of loans. The adoption of these
statements did not cause a significant change in the Banks financial condition
or results of operations. The Bank's previous method of accounting for these
types of loans was substantially the same as the methods required by Statements
No. 114 and No. 118. No adjustment was necessary upon adoption.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (continued)
Effective January 1, 1996, the Bank adopted FASB statements No. 121 and No.
122. FASB No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for
Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of, requires review of long-lived assets for
impairment in certain circumstances. Adoption of this standard did not have a
material effect on the consolidated financial statements and no adjustment was
required. FASB No. 122, Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, addresses
the accounting for purchased or originated mortgage servicing rights. The Bank
began selling originated mortgages with retained servicing rights in 1996 and
FASB No. 122 standards were followed for these transactions. No prior
servicing rights existed.
NOTE 3. RESTRICTION ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS
The Bank is required to maintain average funds in cash and on deposit with the
Federal Reserve Bank. The average balance required at December 31, 1996 was
$853,000.

NOTE 11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)
depository for Kimball International, Inc. and is also the trustee for the
Kimball International Retirement Trust. Amounts on deposit with the Bank by
Kimball International, Kimball International Retirement Plan and Employee
Benefit Plan were $13,547,958 at December 31, 1996 and $30,360,801 at December
31,1995.
The Bank serves as Trustee for Kimball International's retirement and employee
benefit plans and rents office space to Kimball. During 1994 and 1993, the Bank
also processed insurance claims for Kimball's employee benefit plan. Fees paid
to the Bank for these services by Kimball International in 1996, 1995 and 1994
were $578,000, $669,000 and $836,000. Amounts receivable from Kimball
International for these services were $168,000 at December 31, 1996, $521,000
at December 31, 1995 and $305,000 at December 31, 1994.
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank makes loans to executive officers,
directors, principal shareholders, their related companies and family members.
These loans are made on substantially the same terms as those with unrelated
parties and do not involve unusual risks of collectability. Total loans to
executive officers, directors and principal shareholders for 1996 were as
follows:
Balance, January 1, 1996 $1,898,332
New loans 189,040
Repayment (218,563)
Changes in persons included 0
Balance, December 31, 1996 $1,868,809
NOTE 12. LEASE AND COMMITMENTS
Minimum lease payments at December 31, 1996, under operating lease commitments,
total $ 24,640 and are due as follows: $14,784 in 1997; $9,856 in 1998, and $0
thereafter. Operating expenses include rental expense of $38,058 in 1995 and
$40,610 in 1994.
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Bank is party to financial transactions involving off-balance-sheet risk in
the normal course of business. These financial transactions include
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These transactions
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amounts
recognized in the statement of condition. The contract amounts of these
transactions reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation has in the
particular financial instruments.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is
represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the
same credit policies when entering into these off-balance-sheet transactions as
it does for on-balance-sheet transactions.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued)
Financial transactions with off-balance-sheet credit risk at December 31, 1996
and 1995 were as follows:
1996 1995
Commitments to extend credit $11,830,600 $9,383,181
Standby letters of credit $ 370,000 $ 435,000
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of conditions established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.
Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon,
the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash
requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a
case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by
the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation
of the counterpart. Collateral held varies but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing
commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Letters of credit
are primarily issued to support private borrowing arrangements. The credit
risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that
involved in extending loans to customers.
The Bank is subject to claims and lawsuits which arise in the ordinary course
of business. Based on information presently available and advice received from
legal counsel representing the Bank in connection with such claims and
lawsuits, it is the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate
determination of such claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse
effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.
NOTE 14. REGULATORY MATTERS
SVB&T Corporation's principal source of funds for dividends is Springs Valley
Bank & Trust Company, its wholly owned subsidiary. The amount of dividends
that the Bank may pay SVB&T Corporation without regulatory approval is limited
by state law to defined net income for 1996, 1995 and 1994 less any dividends
paid in those years. In addition, Federal regulations require the Bank to
maintain certain capital levels based on risk-weighted assets. At December
31, 1996, approximately $3,025,000 of the Bank's retained earnings were
available for dividend payments to the SVB&T Corporation.
Required capital ratios and the Bank's capital ratios at December 31, 1996 are
as follows:
Required Bank's Ratio
Tier 1 capital ratio 4.0% 15.2%
Risk based capital ratio 8.0% 16.5%
Leverage ratio 3.0 to 5.0% 8.9%

NOTE 15. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT
At December 31, 1996 the total amount of due from banks included $227,918, with
Bank One, Kentucky, and $1,347,276 with PNC Bank, Kentucky, which is in excess
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's insured limit of $100,000 per
institution.
The majority of investments in state and municipal securities involve
governmental entities in the State of Indiana.
A majority of the Bank's loans, commitments and letters of credit have been
granted to customers in the Bank's market area of Orange, Dubois and
surrounding counties in Southern Indiana. The concentrations of credit by type
of loan are set forth in Note 5. Although the Bank has a diversified loan
portfolio, a substantial portion of its customers' ability to honor their loan
contracts is dependent on the strength of the manufacturing economic sectors in
this geographic area.
NOTE 16. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments at December
31, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:
1996 1995

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statements of financial
condition for cash and federal funds sold is a reasonable estimate of their
fair value.
Investment Securities
Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
Loans
For variable rate loans and short-term fixed rate loans that adjust rates
frequently, fair values are based on the carrying value of those loans. For
long-term fixed rate loans, the fair values are estimated by discounting future
cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to
borrowers of similar credit quality. For other financial instruments
classified as loans (bankers acceptances, economic development revenue bonds,
and securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements), fair values are
based on the carrying value of those instruments. Anticipated future loan
losses have been deducted.
Interest Receivable
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable is a reasonable estimate of
its fair value.
Deposit Liabilities
The carrying value of demand deposit, NOW, savings and money market savings
accounts are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date and as
such are the fair value. For variable rate time deposits (IRA deposits) which
reprice quarterly, fair values are based on the carrying value of the accounts.
The fair value of fixed rate certificates of deposit is estimated by
discounting the future cash flows using the current rates offered for deposits
of similar remaining maturities.
Federal Funds Purchased and Other Short-Term Borrowing
The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowing
are reasonable estimates of their fair values.
Interest Payable
The carrying amount of accrued interest payable is a reasonable estimate of its
fair value.

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
SVB&T Corporation and Subsidiary
French Lick, Indiana
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
condition of SVB&T Corporation and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1996
and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes
in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of SVB&T Corporation and Subsidiary at December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the consolidated results of their operations and
cash flows each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Corporation changed its method of accounting for loans in 1995.
