ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Shoreline's Restated Articles of Incorporation require
indemnification of Shoreline's directors to the maximum extent
permitted by the Michigan Business Corporation Act. The Restated
Articles vest in Shoreline's board of directors the discretion to
provide the same degree of indemnification to Shoreline's officers
on a case-by-case basis. The following is a summary of the
pertinent provisions of the Michigan Business Corporation Act.
Sections 561-567 of the Michigan Business Corporation Act
contain provisions governing the indemnification of officers and
directors by Michigan corporations. That statute provides that a
corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other
than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason
of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation or serving another corporation or other
enterprise at the request of the corporation, against expenses,
including attorneys' fees, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts
paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation or its
shareholders, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by
judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo
contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation or its shareholders, or, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that he had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Indemnification of expenses, including attorneys' fees, is
allowed in derivative actions except that no indemnification is
allowed in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such
person shall have been found liable to the corporation unless a
court decides indemnification is proper. To the extent any such
person succeeds on the merits or otherwise, he shall be
indemnified against expenses, including attorneys' fees. A
determination that the person to be indemnified meets the
applicable standard of conduct, if not made by a court, shall be
made by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum
consisting of directors who were not parties to such action; if
such a quorum is not obtainable, by a majority vote of a committee
II-2
designated by the board of directors consisting of two or more
directors not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; by
independent legal counsel; by all independent directors who are
not parties or threatened to be parties in the action, suit, or
proceeding; or by the shareholders. Expenses may be paid in
advance upon receipt of an undertaking to repay. A corporation
may purchase indemnity insurance.
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
Not applicable.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
II-3
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales
are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement;
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of the
registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereto) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the registration statement or any material
change to such information in the registration statement;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do
not apply if the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated
by reference in this registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA
FIDE offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-
effective amendment any of the securities being registered
that remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for
purposes of determining liability under the 1933 Act, each filing
of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act and each filing of the Plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering
thereof.
II-4
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted
by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection
with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Dear Sir or Madam:
We represent Shoreline Financial Corporation, a Michigan
corporation (the "Company"), with respect to the above-captioned

pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") to register 200,000
shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") to be acquired by the above
referenced plan (the "Plan").
As counsel for the Company, we are familiar with its Restated
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and have reviewed the various
proceedings taken by the Company to authorize the issuance of the Common
Stock to be sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. We have also
reviewed and assisted in preparing the Registration Statement. We are
advised by the Company that the Plan will acquire all Shares through
purchases in the public markets or from shareholders and will not
purchase shares directly from the Company.
On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated and validly
existing under the laws of the State of Michigan.

Statement will, when issued, be legally issued and outstanding, fully paid,

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Shoreline Financial Corporation
401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan
Benton Harbor, Michigan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits (modified cash basis) of Shoreline Financial Corporation
401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits (modified
cash basis) for the year ended December 31, 1995. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
Except as explained in the following paragraph, 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.
As permitted by 29 CFR 2520.103-8 of the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, investment assets held by Shoreline Bank, the
trustee of the Plan, and transactions in those assets were excluded from
the scope of our audit of the Plan's 1994 financial statements, except for
comparing the information provided by the trustee, which is summarized in
Note 4, with the related information included in the financial statements.
Because of the significance of the 1994 information that we did not audit,
we are unable to, and do not, express an opinion on the Plan's 1994
financial statement as of December 31, 1994. The form and content of the
information included in the financial statement, other than that derived
from the information certified by the trustee, have been audited by us and,
in our opinion, are presented in compliance with the Department of Labor's
Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
___________________________________________________________________________
1.
As described in Note 2, these financial statements and supplemental
schedules are prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a
comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting
principles.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above of Shoreline
Financial Corporation 401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31, 1995,
and for the year then ended present fairly, in all material respects, the
net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1995, and
the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in
conformity with the basis of accounting as described in Note 2.
Our audit of the Plan's financial statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1995 was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on
the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental
schedules reported on Schedule G are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the
Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974. The Fund Information in the 1995
statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes
in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for
benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund.
The supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
as of and for the year ended December 31, 1995 and, in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
GENERAL: The Plan is a defined contribution plan subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA").
CONTRIBUTIONS: Employer profit sharing contributions are made at
the discretion of the Board of Directors of Shoreline Financial
Corporation limited to the maximum permitted by the Internal
Revenue Code. For 1995, the employer contributions equal 3% of
the consolidated net income of Shoreline Financial Corporation
before federal income taxes and securities gains or losses. In
addition, the employer will match 50% of the employee's voluntary
salary deferrals up to 4% of compensation. Employee voluntary
salary deferrals may not exceed 15%.
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS: The benefit a Plan member is entitled to is
provided by employer and employee contributions and income
thereon (including net realized and unrealized investment gains
and losses) allocated to the member's account. Employees with at
least one year of service (as defined) are entitled to
participate in the salary deferral feature of the Plan.
Employees with at least two years of service (as defined) are
entitled to participate in the employer profit sharing
contributions.
VESTING: Participants are credited with one year of vested
service for each year in which at least 1,000 hours of service
are performed. Participants are 100% vested in employer and
employee contributions and income thereon, at all times.
PLAN TERMINATION: Although it has not expressed any intent to do
so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its
contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to
the provisions of ERISA and its related regulations. On
termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either
a lump-sum amount equal to the value of his or her account, or
this amount may be paid in installments with interest.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The policies and principles which significantly affect the
determination of net assets and results of operations are
summarized below.
ADOPTION OF PLAN: In 1988, Shoreline Financial Corporation
adopted the Shoreline Financial Corporation 401(k)/Profit Sharing
Plan.
ACCOUNTING METHOD: The accounting practices and principles
followed by the Shoreline Financial Corporation 401(k)/Profit
Sharing Plan are based on the modified cash basis, which differs
from generally accepted accounting principles as certain income
and expenses are accounted for on the cash basis.
ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements on a modified
cash basis of accounting requires the plan administrator to make
estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts
and disclosures, and actual results may differ from these

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACOCUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
estimates. It is at least reasonably possible that a significant
change may occur in the near term for the estimates of investment
valuation.
SECURITY VALUATION: Investments in securities are stated at fair
value. Securities traded on security exchanges are valued at the
last sales price on the day of valuation. In the absence of any
sales, the value is the average of the bid and ask prices on the
day of valuation. Securities traded over the counter are valued
at the average of the bid and ask prices on the day of valuation.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on the date the
transaction order is executed.
In accordance with the policy of stating investments at fair
value, net unrealized appreciation for the year along with gains
and losses on sales of investments are reflected in the Statement
of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits as net
appreciation in fair value of investments.
LOAN VALUATION: Loans to Plan participants are stated at cost
which approximates fair value.
NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS
Shoreline Bank, the trustee of the Plan, holds investment assets
and executes transactions.
Under the Plan, employees direct where their contributions and
the employer's match are to be invested. The Plan's investments
are held by a bank-administered trust fund. The following tables
present the fair values of those investments for 1995.
Investments that represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets
are separately identified.
