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, 1998.

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.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF 
OPERATIONS.

Financial Condition

Loan demand was strong during the first quarter of 1999. Net loans increased
$3,092,000 during the quarter. The largest demand was in the commercial loan
area. This increase was earlier than anticipated and is a reflection of the
strong growth in the local market place. Mortgage demand continued to increase,
but the relatively stable rates during the quarter resulted in less of a demand
to rewrite existing mortgages only for the rate advantage. Consumer loans
declined slightly due to a drop in demand that the Bank normally experiences
during the winter months.

Time and savings deposits dropped during the first quarter of the year. This
follows a pattern of cash flows that usually impacts the market in the first
quarter. Demand deposits grew during the quarter. Much of the growth takes place
in the final month of the quarter in anticipation of Federal income tax
payments.

The Bank paid a quarterly dividend of $.31 per share during the first quarter.
An additional investment in premises began during the first quarter as the Bank
began construction of a building in Imlay City, Michigan that will house a new
bank branch. The branch is scheduled to open in June of 1999. Imlay City is the
only other city in Lapeer County and is the second largest population area in
the county.

The Bank continues to seek investment opportunities to supplement income but
remain liquid enough to meet loan demand. The Bank used cash available at the
end of 1998 due to the sale of real estate mortgages to meet the loan demand and
purchase securities to increase income. Most securities purchased in the U.S.
Government categories are held as available for sale. Securities purchased for
the state and political subdivision portfolio are held to maturity.

Results of Operations

Net interest income declined during the period as a result of the sale of real
estate mortgages during the last quarter of 1998. These mortgages were sold due
to their low interest rates and long maturities. Loan demand in the commercial
portfolio continued to be strong. Service charges on deposit accounts remained
consistent with the levels collected in the first quarter of 1998. Other income
categories also performed at the similar levels to the previous year. On
February 1, 1999, the Bank introduced a fee for foreign card holders at its
seven ATMs. Management is monitoring the results of this fee closely. Other
expense levels remained consistent with the previous years levels.

Risk Factors

Capital levels remain strong and well above regulatory requirements. Provision
for loan losses to average loans ratio is 1.54%, above most peer levels. The
non-performing loans to total loans ratio is 1.16%. The Corporation remains on
schedule in testing and preparing for the year 2000. No major problems have been
discovered during its effort to identify issues related to the potential failure
of data processing systems related to calculating or recognizing the year 2000
date in programs.
