Part I - Financial Information

Item I - Financial Statements

Introduction to Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements of County Bank Corp and subsidiary,
Lapeer County Bank & Trust Co., have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when
read in conjunction with financial statements and the notes thereto included in
County Bank Corp's Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the year ended December 31, 1995. 

The financial information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods
presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the year.



                                                                         PAGE 2

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and the
Results of Operations

This discussion primarily applies to Lapeer County Bank & Trust Co. (the Bank),
the wholly owned subsidiary and sole asset of County Bank Corp (the Corporation)

Financial Condition

The loans to deposits ratio reached 71.07% at the end of the second quarter of
1996, an increase from 65% on December 31, 1995. Mortgages increased to 26.9%
of the loan portfolio from 23.4% during the fourth quarter 95 and 25.4% during
the first quarter of 1996. Mortgages grew 19.2% during the first two quarters
of 1996. Consumer loans and commercial loans declined slightly from year end
balances. However, consumer loans have increased slightly from first quarter
1996 balances. Commercial loans grew 2.6% over second quarter 1995 balances.

Deposits continue to flow toward demand and interest-bearing demand accounts.
Interest-bearing demand accounts grew 10.3% since the fourth quarter of 1995
due primarily to continued increases in the Choice account product. Demand
deposits grew 3.1% from fourth quarter 1995 levels after dropping 3.4% during
the first quarter of 1996. Time deposits continue to decline as customers seek
liquidity and return.

Results of Operations

The interest spread for the second quarter was 4.20% following a 4.15% spread
in the first quarter of 1996. Interest margin as a percentage of average assets
declined to 4.71% during the first quarter of 1996 from 4.68% in the first
quarter of 1996. Interest margin remains relatively strong due to the increased
loans to deposits ratio (71.1% on June 30, 1996). Non-interest expense ratios
remain at levels within historical parameters for the Bank. Non-interest income
increased $212,000 as a result of the full repayment of a loan that was
previously in non-accrual status. The loan repayment was unexpected and the
increase was a result of a deferred credit posted when the loan was initially
rewritten and placed back in accrual status. Net income reached 1.97% of
average assets for the quarter.

Capital

The Bank continues to retain earnings to increase capital. The moderate growth
in total assets contributes to the increasing capital ratios.

Risk

Past due and non-performing loan ratios improved during the second quarter of
1996. These ratios remain at historically low levels. The Reserve for loan
losses to gross loans ratios remains very strong. The adequacy of the loan loss
reserve is calculated based on historical experience and specific allocations
for problem credits. The excess reserve based on this calculation is

                                                                         Page 6
<PAGE>   8
$1,416,000 at the end of the first quarter of 1996, an increase from $1,392,000
on December 31, 1995.

Rate risk continues to be controllable with a rate sensitivity of (5.80%) at
six months. This means the bank will be repricing liabilities more quickly than
loans during the next six months. Maturing deposits are priced at or slightly
below current rates. In a stable or slightly increasing rate environment, the
Bank will experience increased pressure on the interest margin.


                                                                       Page 7
