ANNOUNCES INTENT TO DE-REGISTER WITH THE SEC
Lawrenceville, Illinois, March 8, 1999 - HBancorporation, Inc. (the
"Company"), the parent holding company for Heritage National Bank, announced its
intention today to de-register with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") from the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
effective March 30, 1999. The Company first became a public reporting company on
March 29, 1996, and at that time committed to remain a public reporting company
for at least three years.
Kevin J. Kavanaugh, President of the Company, indicated that the Board of
Directors approved the de-registration with the SEC in light of the Company's
current number of record stockholders and the cost savings to the Company. Mr.
Kavanaugh stated that it is the Company's intention to provide its record
stockholders with press releases of material events affecting the Company,
quarterly unaudited earnings releases, as well as an annual report and proxy
statement. Additionally, the Company will maintain a list of persons desiring to
sell or purchase the Company's common stock. These lists will be made available
to anyone, without charge, upon request.
