                   PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA


     The following tables set forth certain pro forma condensed combined
financial data for the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and year ended December 31, 1995, giving effect to the net proceeds from a
public offering involving the sale of 2,300,000 Common Shares completed in June
1996, at an offering price of $13.00 per share, the acquisition of Citizens
Bank, Sharpsburg, Kentucky (Sharpsburg) on October 31, 1995 and the acquisition
of Farmers Deposit Bancorp and Subsidiary, Eminence, Kentucky (Eminence)
effective July 1, 1996.  The acquisition of Sharpsburg  and Eminence are
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting as if they had occurred as
of January 1, 1995, after giving effect to the pro forma adjustments described
in the Notes to the Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements.  This
information should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated
financial statements of the Company and Eminence, including the respective notes
thereto.  The pro forma financial data are not necessarily indicative of the
results that actually would have occurred had the acquisitions been consummated
on the dates indicated or that may be obtained in the future.  The pro forma
information presented has been retroactively adjusted to reflect all prior stock
splits effected in the form of share dividends, including the 2-for-1 stock
split effected in the form of a share dividend on March 29, 1996.

Notes
- -----

(1)  Amounts for the Company are derived from the audited financial statements
     for the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 1995.

(2)  Eminence's most recent audited financial statements are as of and for the
     year ended June 30, 1995.  Amounts for Eminence included above have been
     updated to reflect the results of operations for the period January 1, 1995
     through December 31, 1995.  The balance sheet and statement of income as of
     and for the six months ended December 31, 1995 have not been audited by
     independent public accountants; however, in the opinion of management such
     information reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
     the results for the interim period.  All such adjustments are of a normal
     and recurring nature.

(3)  Amounts for the Sharpsburg Bank are derived from audited financial
     statements as of and for the ten months ended October 31, 1995.  Amounts
     for the period November 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995 are included in
     amounts shown for the Company.

(4)  To record amortization of goodwill (including any core deposit intangible,
     which has not been separately identified and valued) relating to the
     purchase of Eminence over an accelerated period of 15 years.

(5)  To record amortization of goodwill (including any core deposit intangible,
     which has not been separately identified and valued) relating to the
     purchase of the Sharpsburg Bank over an accelerated period of 15 years.

(6)  To record amortization of premiums on investment securities and related tax
     effect relating to the purchase of Eminence over a 7 year period using the
     constant yield method.

(7)  To record depreciation expense on a step-up of bank premises and related
     tax effect relating to the purchase of Eminence over a 30 year period using
     the straight line method.

(8)  To eliminate actual interest expense and related tax benefit incurred on
     average debt outstanding during 1995 of $4,950,000.  Total debt outstanding
     at December 31, 1995 of $7,050,000 will be discharged with the proceeds
     from the sale of Common Shares.

(9)  Reflects the effect of the sale of 2,300,000 Common Shares.

(10) Does not reflect the additional net income of approximately $0.09 per
     common share from the investment of excess funds from the sale of common
     stock of $7,608,000 and additional funds of $2,100,000 that would have been
     available during 1995 due to the difference between the average debt
     outstanding during 1995 of $4,950,000 and the amount of debt assumed
     discharged at December 31, 1995 of $7,050,000 at an interest rate of 5.75%
     (which is an interest rate less than the 6.8% rate actually achieved by the
     Company on its investment portfolio in 1995).
