Item 1.  Business.

General

         Marion  Capital  Holdings,  Inc.  ("MCHI")  is an  Indiana  corporation
organized  on November 23,  1992,  to become a unitary  savings and loan holding
company.  MCHI  became a  unitary  savings  and loan  holding  company  upon the
conversion  (the  "Conversion")  of First  Federal  Savings  Bank of Marion (the
"Bank" and together with MCHI, the "Company") from a federal mutual savings bank
to a federal stock savings bank on March 18, 1993.  The principal  asset of MCHI
consists of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par
value per share, of the Bank. The Bank began operations in Marion, Indiana, as a
federal savings and loan  association in 1936, and converted to a federal mutual
savings bank in 1986.

         The Bank offers a number of consumer and commercial financial services.
These services  include:  (i) residential and commercial real estate loans; (ii)
multi-family  loans; (iii) construction loans; (iv) installment loans; (v) loans
secured by deposits;  (vi) auto loans;  (vii) NOW accounts;  (viii) consumer and
commercial demand deposit accounts; (ix) individual retirement accounts; and (x)
tax  deferred  annuities  and  mutual  funds  through  its  service  corporation
subsidiary, First Marion Service Corporation ("First Marion"). The Bank provides
these services at two-full  service  offices,  one in Marion and one in Decatur,
Indiana.  The Bank's  market area for loans and  deposits  consists of Grant and
surrounding counties and Adams County in Indiana.

         The  Company's  primary  source of revenue is interest  income from the
Bank's  lending  activities.  The  Bank's  principal  lending  activity  is  the
origination of  conventional  mortgage loans to enable  borrowers to purchase or
refinance one- to four-family residential real property. At June 30, 1996, 58.3%
of the Company's total loan and mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio consisted
of  conventional  mortgage loans on residential  real property.  These loans are
generally  secured by first mortgages on the property.  Substantially all of the
residential  real estate loans  originated by the Bank are secured by properties
located in Grant and Adams Counties.  The Bank also offers secured and unsecured
consumer-related  loans (including installment loans, loans secured by deposits,
home equity loans,  and auto loans).  The Company has a  significant  commercial
real estate  portfolio,  with a balance of $36.2  million at June 30,  1996,  or
24.2% of total  loans and  mortgage-backed  securities.  The Bank  also  makes a
limited number of construction  loans, which constituted $5.0 million or 3.3% of
the Company's total loans and mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 1996, and a
limited number of commercial loans which are not secured by real estate.

         In the early 1980s most savings institutions' loan portfolios consisted
of long-term fixed-rate loans which then carried low interest rates. At the same
time, most savings  associations had to pay competitive and high market interest
rates in order to maintain  deposits.  This  resulted in a  "negative"  interest
spread. The Bank experienced these problems, but responded to them as changes in
regulations over the period permitted, and has been quite successful in managing
its interest rate risk. Among its strategies has been an emphasis on originating
adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans  ("ARMs") which permit the Bank to better match
the  interest it earns on mortgage  loans with the interest it pays on deposits,
with interest rate minimums.  As of June 30, 1996, ARMs constituted 89.6% of the
Company's  total  mortgage loan  portfolio.  Additionally,  the Bank attempts to
lengthen liability repricing by aggressively pricing longer term certificates of
deposit  during  periods of  relatively  low  interest  rates and  investing  in
intermediate-term or variable-rate investment securities.

Lending Activities

         Loan Portfolio  Data. The following table sets forth the composition of
the  Company's  loan  portfolio by loan type and  security  type as of the dates
indicated,   including  a   reconciliation   of  gross  loans  receivable  after
consideration  of the  allowance  for possible loan losses and deferred net loan
fees on loans.  Because the  Conversion  did not occur until March 18, 1993, the
information at June 30, 1992 represents loan data for the Bank only.

   The  following  table  sets  forth  certain  information  at June  30,  1996,
regarding the dollar amount of loans  maturing in the Company's  loan  portfolio
based on the date that final payment is due under the terms of the loan.  Demand
loans  having no stated  schedule  of  repayments  and no  stated  maturity  and
overdrafts  are  reported  as due in one year or less.  This  schedule  does not
reflect  the effects of  possible  prepayments  or  enforcement  of  due-on-sale
clauses.  Management  expects  prepayments  will cause actual  maturities  to be
shorter.

</TABLE>


         Residential  Loans.  Residential  loans consist of  one-to-four  family
loans.  Approximately  $87.1 million,  or 58.3%,  of the Company's  portfolio of
loans and  mortgage-backed  securities  at June 30,  1996,  consisted of one- to
four-family  mortgage loans, of which  approximately 91.4% had adjustable rates.
During  the past  year,  the  Company  sold to the  Federal  Home Loan  Mortgage
Corporation  (the "FHLMC") 95% of the  principal  balance of  substantially  all
fixed rate  loans  originated  with  terms in excess of 15 years or with  annual
interest  rates lower than 8.5% and retained all of the servicing  rights on all
such loans.  Currently,  the Company is opting to keep these fixed rate loans in
its  portfolio  since the value of fixed rate loans  remains  low. The option to
retain or sell fixed rate loans will be evaluated from time to time.

         The Bank originates fixed-rate loans with terms of up to 25 years. Such
loans are  originated  in accordance  with  guidelines  established  by FHLMC to
facilitate the sale of such loans to FHLMC in the secondary market.  These loans
amortize on a monthly  basis with  principal  and  interest  due each month.  As
mentioned above,  ninety-five  percent of such loans originated  during the 1996
fiscal  year with terms in excess of 15 years,  or annual  interest  rates below
8.5%, were sold to FHLMC promptly after they were originated.  The Bank retained
5% of the  principal  balance of such sold loans as well as the servicing on all
of such sold loans.  Recently,  the Bank has decided to retain  these fixed rate
loans in its portfolio.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had $7.8 million of fixed
rate  residential  mortgage  loans which were  originated  in prior years in its
portfolio, none of which were held for sale.

         Most ARMs adjust on an annual basis, although the Bank currently offers
a 5-year  ARM  which  has a fixed  rate for five  years,  and  adjusts  annually
thereafter.  Currently, the ARMs have an interest rate average minimum of 6% and
average  maximum of 12%. The interest rate adjustment for  substantially  all of
the Bank's ARMs is indexed to the One-Year  Treasury Constant Maturity Index. On
new residential  mortgage loans, the margin above such index currently is 2.75%.
The Bank offers ARMs with  maximum  rate  changes of 2% per  adjustment,  and an
average  of 6% over the life of the loan.  Generally  made for terms of up to 25
years,  the Bank's  ARMs are not made on terms that  conform  with the  standard
underwriting criteria of FHLMC or the Federal National Mortgage Association (the
"FNMA"),  thereby making resale of such loans  difficult.  To better protect the
Company against rising interest rates, the Bank underwrites its residential ARMs
based on the  borrower's  ability  to repay the loan  assuming  a rate  equal to
approximately  4% above the initial rate payable if the loan  remained  constant
during the loan term.

         Although the Bank's residential  mortgage loans are generally amortized
over a 20-year period,  residential mortgage loans generally are paid off before
maturity.  Substantially all of the residential mortgage loans that the Bank has
originated  include  "due on sale"  clauses,  which  give the Bank the  right to
declare a loan  immediately  due and  payable  in the event  that,  among  other
things, the borrower sells or otherwise disposes of the real property subject to
the mortgage and the loan is not repaid.

<PAGE>

         The  Bank  generally   requires  private  mortgage   insurance  on  all
conventional residential  single-family mortgage loans with loan-to-value ratios
in excess of 80%. The Bank generally will not lend more than 95% of the lower of
current cost or appraised value of a residential single family property. In July
1995, the Bank's wholly-owned  subsidiary,  First Marion, began a 100% financing
program  pursuant to which the Bank would originate an 80%  loan-to-value  first
mortgage  loan using its normal  underwriting  standard  and First  Marion would
finance the remaining 20%. The loans apply only to the purchase or  construction
of a single  family  residence  and the  borrower  is  required  to have  "above
average" credit.  The second mortgage loan originated by First Marion is a fixed
rate  mortgage  loan  with an  interest  rate of 12% and a term not to exceed 15
years. At June 30, 1996, these loans amounted to $540,000.

         Residential  mortgage  loans in excess of $250,000  must be approved in
advance by the Bank's Board of  Directors.  Such loans under that amount must be
approved by the Bank's Loan Committee.

         At June 30, 1996, residential mortgage loans amounting to $1.7 million,
or  1.2%  of  total  loans,   were  included  in  non-performing   assets.   See
"--Non-performing and Problem Assets."

         Commercial  Real Estate  Loans.  At June 30, 1996,  $36.2  million,  or
24.2%,  of the Company's  total loan and  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio
consisted of mortgage  loans secured by commercial  real estate.  The properties
securing  these loans  consist  primarily of nursing  homes,  office  buildings,
hotels,  churches,  warehouses and shopping centers.  The commercial real estate
loans,  substantially  all adjustable  rate, are made for terms not exceeding 25
years, and generally require an 80% or lower  loan-to-value  ratio. Some require
balloon  payments  after 5, 10 or 15  years.  A  number  of  different  indices,
including the prime rate as announced by NBD Bank,  Indianapolis,  Indiana,  are
used as the interest  rate index for these  loans.  The  commercial  real estate
loans generally have minimum  interest rates of 8% and maximum interest rates of
14%.  Most of these loans adjust  annually,  but the Company has some 3-year and
5-year  commercial  real  estate  adjustable  rate loans in its  portfolio.  The
largest  commercial  real estate loan as of June 30, 1996, had a balance of $2.7
million.

         Because  of  certain  credit  problems  it  was   experiencing  in  its
commercial real estate and multi-family  loan portfolio,  the Bank has since the
summer of 1991 limited the size of any  commercial  real estate or  multi-family
loan or participation originated or purchased to $500,000, wherever practicable.
The Company held in its portfolio 25  commercial  and  multi-family  real estate
loans with  balances in excess of $500,000 at June 30,  1996.  The average  loan
balance for all such loans was $1.1  million.  A  significant  proportion of the
Company's  commercial  real estate loan  portfolio  consists of loans secured by
nursing home properties. The balance of such loans totaled $16.6 million at June
30, 1996.

         Current  federal  law  limits a  savings  association's  investment  in
commercial  real  estate  loans  to  400%  of  its  capital.  In  addition,  the
application  of the Qualified  Thrift Lender Test has had the effect of limiting
the aggregate  investment in commercial  real estate loans made by the Bank. See
"Regulation -- Qualified  Thrift  Lender." The Bank currently  complies with the
limitations on investments in commercial real estate loans.

         Commercial  real estate loans  involve  greater  risk than  residential
mortgage loans because payments on loans secured by income  properties are often
dependent on the  successful  operation or management of the  properties and are
generally  larger.  As a result,  repayment  of such  loans may be  subject to a
greater extent than residential  real estate loans to adverse  conditions in the
real  estate  market or the  economy.  At June 30,  1996,  the  Company  had not
classified  any of its  commercial  real estate and  multi-family  portfolio  as
substandard and no loans were classified as special mention.

         The Company has a high concentration of loans secured by nursing homes.
Like other commercial real estate loans,  nursing home loans often involve large
loan  balances to single  borrowers or groups of related  borrowers,  and have a
higher degree of credit risk than residential  mortgage  lending.  Loan payments
are often  dependent on the operation of the nursing home,  the success of which
is dependent upon the long-term health care industry. The risks inherent in such
industry include the federal,  state and local licensure and certification  laws
which  regulate,  among other things,  the number of beds for which nursing care
can be provided and the construction,  acquisition and operation of such nursing
facilities.  The failure to obtain or maintain a required regulatory approval or
license could prevent the nursing home from being  reimbursed for costs incurred
in offering its services or expanding its business. Moreover, a large percentage
of nursing home  revenues is derived from  reimbursement  by third party payors.
Both  governmental  and other third party payors have adopted and are continuing
to adopt cost  containment  measures  designed  to limit  payment to health care
providers,  and  changes in federal and state  regulations  in these areas could

<PAGE>

adversely  affect such homes.  Because of the  Company's  concentration  in this
area, a decline in the nursing home industry  could have a  substantial  adverse
effect on the Company's  commercial  real estate  portfolio  and,  therefore,  a
substantial adverse effect on its operating results.

         Commercial  real estate loans in excess of $200,000 must be approved in
advance by the Bank's  Board of  Directors.  Commercial  real estate loans under
that amount must be approved by the Bank's Loan Committee.

         Multi-Family  Loans. At June 30, 1996,  $15.6 millon,  or 10.4%, of the
Company's  total loan and  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio  consisted  of
mortgage loans secured by multi-family  dwellings (those consisting of more than
four units).  All of the Company's  multi-family  loans are secured by apartment
complexes  located  in  Indiana  or  Ohio.  The  average  balance  of  all  such
multi-family  mortgage  loans was $336,000 as of June 30, 1996. The largest such
multi-family  mortgage loan as of June 30, 1996,  had a balance of $1.6 million.
As with the Bank's commercial real estate loans, multi-family mortgage loans are
substantially all adjustable-rate  loans, are written for terms not exceeding 25
years,  and require at least an 80%  loan-to-value  ratio. At June 30, 1996, the
Company had no loans secured by multi-family  dwellings which were classified as
substandard or included in non-performing assets.

         Multi-family  loans,  like  commercial  real  estate  loans,  involve a
greater risk than do residential  loans.  Also, the more stringent  loans-to-one
borrower  limitation  limits the ability of the Bank to make loans to developers
of apartment complexes and other multi-family units.

         Construction  Loans. The Bank offers construction loans with respect to
owner-occupied  residential  and commercial real estate property and, in certain
cases, to builders or developers  constructing  such properties on an investment
basis (i.e.,  before the  builder/developer  obtains a commitment from a buyer).
Most construction loans are made to owners who occupy the premises.

         At June 30, 1996,  $5.0 million,  or 3.3%, of the Company's  total loan
and  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio  consisted of construction loans, of
which approximately $584,000 were investment residential  construction loans and
$506,000 related to construction of commercial real estate projects. The largest
construction  loan on June 30, 1996, was $431,000.  No  construction  loans were
included in non-performing assets on that date.

         For most  construction  loans,  the loan is actually a 20-year mortgage
loan, but interest only is payable during the construction  phase of the loan up
to 18 months, and such interest is charged only on the money disbursed under the
loan. After the construction phase (typically 6 to 12 months),  regular mortgage
loan payments of principal and interest are due.  Appraisals for these loans are
completed, subject to completion of building plans and specifications.

         Interest  rates and fees vary for these loans.  While  construction  is
progressing,  periodic  inspections  are performed for which the Bank assesses a
fee.

         While  providing  the Company with a higher  yield than a  conventional
mortgage loan,  construction  loans involve a higher level of risk. For example,
if a project is not  completed and the borrower  defaults,  the Bank may have to
hire another  contractor to complete the project at a higher cost. Also, a house
may be completed,  but may not be salable,  resulting in the borrower defaulting
and the Bank taking title to the house.

         Consumer Loans. Federal laws and regulations permit federally chartered
savings  associations  to  make  secured  and  unsecured  consumer  loans  in an
aggregate amount of up to 35% of the association's total assets. In addition,  a
federally  chartered  savings  association  has lending  authority above the 35%
limit for certain consumer loans, such as property improvement loans and deposit
account  secured  loans.  However,  the  Qualified  Thrift  Lender  test  places
additional  limitations  on a savings  association's  ability  to make  consumer
loans.

         The  Company's  consumer  loans,  consisting  primarily of  installment
loans, loans secured by deposits, and auto loans,  aggregated $4.2 million as of
June  30,  1996,  or  2.8%  of the  Company's  total  loan  and  mortgage-backed
securities portfolio. Although consumer loans are currently only a small portion
of its lending business, the Bank consistently originates consumer loans to meet
the needs of its customers, and the Bank intends to originate more such loans to
assist in meeting its asset/liability management goals.


<PAGE>

         The Bank makes installment loans of up to three years,  which consisted
of $2.7  million,  or 1.8%  of the  Company's  total  loan  and  mortgage-backed
securities  portfolio at June 30,  1996.  Loans  secured by  deposits,  totaling
$883,000 at June 30, 1996,  are made up to 90% of the original  account  balance
and accrue at a rate of 2% over the  underlying  certificate  of  deposit  rate.
Variable rate home equity loans of up to 10 years,  secured by second  mortgages
on  the  underlying  residential  property  totaled  $399,000,  or  0.3%  of the
Company's total loan and mortgage-backed  securities portfolio at June 30, 1996.
Automobile  loans totaled only $169,000 and are made at variable and fixed rates
for terms of up to five years  depending  on the age of the  automobile  and the
loan-to-value  ratio for the loan.  The Bank does not make  indirect  automobile
loans.

         Although  consumer loans generally  involve a higher level of risk than
one- to four-family  residential  mortgage loans, their relatively higher yields
and  shorter  terms to  maturity  are  believed  to be helpful in  reducing  the
interest-rate risk of the loan portfolio.  The Bank has thus far been successful
in managing  consumer loan risk. As of June 30, 1996,  $11,000 of consumer loans
were included in non-performing assets.

         Mortgage-Backed  Securities.  At June 30,  1996,  the  Company had $1.5
million of  mortgage-backed  securities  outstanding,  or 1.0% of the  Company's
total  loan and  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio.  These  mortgage-backed
securities have an average  estimated  remaining life of  approximately 4 years,
and may be used as collateral for borrowings and as a source of liquidity.

         Origination,  Purchase and Sale of Loans.  The Bank  currently does not
originate  its ARMs in  conformity  with the  standard  criteria of the FHLMC or
FNMA. The Bank would therefore  experience some difficulty selling such loans in
the secondary market, although most loans could be brought into conformity.  The
Bank has no intention,  however,  of  attempting to sell such loans.  The Bank's
ARMs vary  from  secondary  market  criteria  because  the Bank does not use the
standard loan form, does not require current property surveys in most cases, and
does not permit the  conversion of those loans to fixed-rate  loans in the first
three  years of their  term.  These  practices  allow  the Bank to keep the loan
closing costs down.

         Although  the Bank  currently  has  authority  to lend  anywhere in the
United  States,  it has confined its loan  origination  activities  primarily in
Grant and contiguous  counties and in Adams County. The Bank's loan originations
are generated from referrals from builders,  developers, real estate brokers and
existing customers,  newspaper,  radio and periodical  advertising,  and walk-in
customers.  Loans are originated at either the main or branch  office.  All loan
applications are processed and underwritten at the Bank's main office.

         Under current federal law, a savings association generally may not make
any loan to a borrower or its related entities if the total of all such loans by
the savings association exceeds 15% of its capital (plus up to an additional 10%
of  capital in the case of loans  fully  collateralized  by  readily  marketable
collateral);  provided,  however,  that loans up to $500,000  regardless  of the
percentage  limitations may be made and certain housing  development loans of up
to $30 million or 30% of capital,  whichever is less, are permitted. The maximum
amount  which the Bank  could have  loaned to one  borrower  and the  borrower's
related  entities  under the 15% of capital  limitation was $5.3 million at June
30, 1996.  The Bank's  portfolio of loans  currently  contains one borrower that
exceeds the 15% of capital  limitation.  As of July 31, 1996, these loans exceed
the  limitation  by $312,000.  One property is currently in the process of being
refinanced,  and when complete, will reduce the total loans below the applicable
requirements.

         The Bank's loan approval  process is intended to assess the  borrower's
ability to repay the loan,  the  viability  of the loan and the  adequacy of the
value of the  property  that will  secure  the loan.  To assess  the  borrower's
ability  to repay,  the Bank  studies  the  employment  and credit  history  and
information  on  the  historical  and  projected  income  and  expenses  of  its
individual and corporate mortgagors.

         The Bank uses independent  appraisers to appraise the property securing
its loans and  requires  title  insurance or an abstract and a valid lien on its
mortgaged real estate. Appraisals on real estate securing most real estate loans
in excess of $250,000, are performed by either state-licensed or state-certified
appraisers,  depending on the type and size of the loan.  The Bank requires fire
and  extended  coverage  insurance  in amounts at least  equal to the  principal
amount of the loan.  It also  requires  flood  insurance to protect the property
securing its interest if the  property is in a flood  plain.  Tax and  insurance
payments are required to be escrowed by the Bank on all loans subject to private

<PAGE>

mortgage  insurance,  but this service is offered to all borrowers.  Annual site
visitations are made by licensed  architects with respect to all commercial real
estate loans in excess of $500,000.

         The Bank's Executive Committee approves all consumer loans and its Loan
Committee approves all mortgage loans. Commercial real estate loans in excess of
$200,000 and  residential  mortgage loans in excess of $250,000 must be approved
in advance by the Bank's Board of Directors.

         The Bank applies consistent underwriting standards to the several types
of  consumer  loans it makes to protect the Bank  against the risks  inherent in
making such loans. Borrower character,  credit history, net worth and underlying
collateral are important considerations.

         The Bank has  historically  participated  in the secondary  market as a
seller of 95% of the  principal  balance of its  long-term  fixed rate  mortgage
loans, as described  above,  although the Bank has recently begun retaining such
loans in the Company's  portfolio.  The loans the Bank sells are  designated for
sale when originated.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, the Bank sold
$1.4 million of its fixed-rate  mortgage  loans,  and at June 30, 1996,  held no
such loans for sale. The Bank obtains commitments from investors for the sale of
such loans at their  outstanding  principal  balance and these  commitments  are
obtained  prior to origination  of the loans.  The  borrower's  interest rate is
equal to the rate required by the investor plus 0.375% servicing,  and therefore
no gains or losses are recorded at the time of the sale.

         When  it  sells  mortgage  loans,   the  Bank  generally   retains  the
responsibility  for  collecting  and remitting  loan  payments,  inspecting  the
properties  that secure the loans,  making  certain that monthly  principal  and
interest payments and real estate tax and insurance  payments are made on behalf
of  borrowers,  and  otherwise  servicing  the  loans.  The  Company  receives a
servicing fee for performing these services.  The amount of fees received by the
Company varies, but is generally calculated as an amount equal to a rate of .25%
per annum for commercial loans and .375% per annum for residential  loans on the
outstanding  principal  amount  of the  loans  serviced.  The  servicing  fee is
recognized as income over the life of the loans.  At June 30, 1996,  the Company
serviced  $33.6  million of loans sold to other parties of which $7.8 million or
23.2% were for loans sold to FHLMC.

         The Company  occasionally  purchases  participations  to diversify  its
portfolio,  to supplement local loan demand and to obtain more favorable yields.
The  participations  purchased  normally  represent a portion of  residential or
commercial real estate loans originated by other Indiana financial institutions,
most of which are secured by property  located in Indiana.  As of June 30, 1996,
the  Company  held in its  loan  portfolio,  participations  in  mortgage  loans
aggregating  $10.9 million that it had purchased,  all of which were serviced by
others.  The largest such  participation it held at June 30, 1996, was in a loan
secured by an  apartment  complex.  The  Company's  portion  of the  outstanding
balance on that date was approximately $1.6 million.

         Origination  and Other Fees. The Company  realizes income from fees for
originating  commercial  real  estate  loans  (equal  to  one or  one-half  of a
percentage of the total principal  amount of the loan),  late charges,  checking
and NOW account service charges, fees for the sale of mortgage life insurance by
the Bank,  fees for  servicing  loans,  rental income from the lease of space to
Director W. Gordon Coryea, and fees for other  miscellaneous  services including
money orders and travelers checks. In order to increase its competitive position
with  respect to other  mortgage  lenders,  the Bank does not  charge  points on
residential  mortgage  loans,  but does so on its commercial  real estate loans.
Late charges are assessed if payment is not received  within 15 days after it is
due.

         The  Bank  charges  miscellaneous  fees  for  appraisals,   inspections
(including an inspection fee for construction loans),  obtaining credit reports,
certain loan  applications,  recording  and similar  services.  The Company also
collects  fees for  Visa  applications  which it  refers  to  another  financial
institution. The Company does not underwrite any of these credit card loans.

Non-Performing and Problem Assets

         Mortgage  loans are reviewed by the Company on a regular  basis and are
generally  placed on a  non-accrual  status when the loans become  contractually
past due 90 days or more.  Once a  mortgage  loan is  fifteen  days past due,  a
reminder is mailed to the borrower  requesting  payment by a specified  date. At
the end of each month,  late notices are sent with respect to all mortgage loans
at least 20 days delinquent.  When loans are 30 days in default,  a third notice
imposing a late charge equal to 5% of the late principal and interest payment is
imposed. Contact by phone or in person is made, if feasible, with respect to all
mortgage loans 30 days or more in default.

<PAGE>

By the  time a  mortgage  loan is 90 days  past  due,  a  letter  is sent to the
borrower  demanding  payment by a certain date and indicating that a foreclosure
suit will be filed if this deadline is not met. The Board of Directors  normally
confers foreclosure  authority at that time, but management may continue to work
with the borrower if circumstances warrant.

         Consumer and  commercial  loans other than  mortgage  loans are treated
similarly.  Interest income on consumer and other  nonmortgage  loans is accrued
over  the  term  of  the  loan  except  when  serious  doubt  exists  as to  the
collectibility of a loan, in which case the accrual of interest is discontinued.
It is the  Company's  policy to recognize  losses on these loans as soon as they
become apparent.

         Non-performing  assets. At June 30, 1996, $1.9 million,  or 1.1% of the
Company's total assets,  were  non-performing  assets  (non-accrual  loans, real
estate owned and troubled debt  restructurings),  compared to $8.9  million,  or
5.5% of the  Company's  total  assets,  at June  30,  1992.  At June  30,  1996,
residential  loans,  commercial  real  estate  loans,  consumer  loans  and  REO
accounted  for  87.3%,  2.5%,  0.6% and 9.6%,  respectively,  of  non-performing
assets.

         The  June  30,  1996,   non-performing  assets  included  approximately
$183,000 of real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure,  voluntary deed, or
other  means,  compared  to $1.6  million  at June 30,  1992.  Such real  estate
acquired is  classified  by the Company as "real estate owned" or "REO" until it
is sold. When property is so acquired, the value of the asset is recorded on the
books of the Company at the lower of the unpaid principal balance at the date of
acquisition plus foreclosure and other related costs or at fair value.  Interest
accrual ceases when the collection of interest becomes  doubtful,  usually after
the loan has been  delinquent  for 90 days or more.  All costs incurred from the
date of acquisition in maintaining the property are expensed.

         The  following  table  sets forth the  amounts  and  categories  of the
Company's  non-performing  assets  (non-accrual  loans,  real  estate  owned and
troubled  debt   restructurings).   Information  at  June  30,  1992  represents
non-performing  assets  data for the Bank only.  It is the policy of the Company
that all earned but  uncollected  interest on all loans be  reviewed  monthly to
determine if any portion thereof should be classified as  uncollectible  for any
loan past due in excess of 90 days.

(1)  The Company generally places mortgage loans on a nonaccrual status when the
     loans  become  contractually  past  due 90 days or  more.  Interest  income
     prevously  accrued  but not deemed  collectible  is  reversed  and  charged
     against  current  income.  Interest  on these loans is then  recognized  as
     income when collected.  At June 30, 1996, $1.7 million of nonaccrual  loans
     were  residential  loans,  $47,000 were commercial  real estate loans,  and
     $11,000 were consumer  loans.  For the year ended June 30, 1996, the income
     that  would  have been  recorded  had the  non-accrual  loans not been in a
     non-performing  status totaled $153,000  compared to actual income recorded
     of $110,000.

         Classified Assets.  Federal  regulations provide for the classification
of loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities  considered by the
Office of Thrift Supervision  ("OTS") to be of lesser quality, as "substandard,"
"doubtful" or "loss." An asset is considered "substandard" if it is inadequately
protected by the current net worth and paying  capacity of the obligor or of the
collateral pledged, if any.  "Substandard" assets include those characterized by
the "distinct possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss"
if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Assets classified as "doubtful" have all
of the weaknesses  inherent in those  classified  "substandard,"  with the added
characteristic  that the weaknesses  present make  "collection or liquidation in
full," on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, "highly
questionable and improbable."  Assets  classified as "loss" are those considered
"uncollectible"  and of such  little  value  that  their  continuance  as assets
without the  establishment  of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.  Assets
which do not currently  expose the insured  institution  to  sufficient  risk to
warrant  classification  in one of the  aforementioned  categories  but  possess
weaknesses are required to be designated "special mention" by management.

         When  an  insured  institution  classifies  problem  assets  as  either
substandard or doubtful,  it may establish general allowances for loan losses in
an amount  deemed  prudent by  management.  General  allowances  represent  loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities,  but which, unlike specific  allowances,  have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured  institution  classifies
problem  assets as  "loss,"  it is  required  either  to  establish  a  specific
allowance for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or
to  charge  off  such  amount.   An   institution's   determination  as  to  the
classification  of its  assets  and the amount of its  valuation  allowances  is
subject to review by the  institution's  Principal  Supervisory  Agent,  who may
order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances.

         In connection with the filing of its periodic  reports with the OTS and
in accordance with its  classification  of assets policy,  the Company regularly
reviews  the  problem  loans in its  portfolio  to  determine  whether any loans
require  classification  in  accordance  with  applicable   regulations.   Total
classified assets at June 30, 1996, were $1.2 million.

         The following  table sets forth the  aggregate  amount of the Company's
classified  assets,  and of the general and specific  loss  allowances as of the
dates indicated.  Information at June 30, 1992 represents classified assets data
for the Bank only.

respectively.

      The Company  regularly reviews its loan portfolio to determine whether any
loans require classification in accordance with applicable regulations.  Not all
assets  classified by the Company as substandard,  doubtful or loss are included
as non-performing  assets,  and not all of the Company's  non-performing  assets
constitute classified assets.

      Substandard  Assets. At June 30, 1996, the Company had 65 loans classified
as  substandard  totaling  approximately  $1.0 million.  Included in substandard
assets  are  certain  loans to  facilitate  the sale of the real  estate  owned,
totaling  152,000 at June 30,  1996.  These are former  REO  properties  sold on
contract that are included as substandard  assets to the extent the loan balance
exceeds the appraised value of the property.

<PAGE>

      Also included in  substandard  assets at June 30, 1996,  are slow mortgage
loans (loans or contracts  delinquent for generally 90 days or more) aggregating
$880,000, slow consumer loans totaling $11,000 and REO of $183,000.

      Special  Mention  Assets.  The  Company  classified  no assets as  special
mention at June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994. The Company's assets subject to special
mention at June 30,  1993,  and 1992  totaled  $2.5  million  and $3.7  million,
respectively.

Allowance for Loan Losses

      The  allowance  for loan losses is  maintained  through the  provision for
losses on loans,  which is charged to earnings.  The  provision is determined in
conjunction  with  management's   review  and  evaluation  of  current  economic
conditions  (including  those  of  the  Bank's  lending  area),  changes  in the
character and size of the loan portfolio,  loan delinquencies (current status as
well as past and  anticipated  trends) and adequacy of collateral  securing loan
delinquencies,  historical and estimated net  charge-offs,  and other  pertinent
information  derived  from a  review  of the loan  portfolio.  The  Company  has
increased the provision  for losses on loans partly in  recognition  of changing
economic  conditions  and its  increased  perception  of risks  inherent  in its
commercial  real  estate and  multi-family  loan  portfolio.  Loans or  portions
thereof are charged to the allowance  when losses are  considered  probable.  In
management's  opinion,  the  Company's  allowance  for  possible  loan losses is
adequate to absorb anticipated future losses from loans at June 30, 1996.

Investments                                                 

         Federally  chartered savings  associations have the authority to invest
in  various  types  of  liquid  assets,  including  U.S.  Treasury  obligations,
securities  of various  federal  agencies,  certain  certificates  of deposit of
insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers' acceptances, repurchase
agreements and federal funds sold.  Subject to various  restrictions,  federally
chartered  savings  associations  may also  invest a portion of their  assets in
commercial  paper,  corporate debt securities and asset-backed  securities.  The
investment policy of MCHI, which is established by the Board of Directors and is
implemented by the Executive  Committee,  is designed  primarily to maximize the
yield on the investment  portfolio  subject to minimal  liquidity risk,  default
risk, interest rate risk, and prudent asset/liability management.

<PAGE>

         Specifically,  MCHI's policies generally limit investments in corporate
debt  obligations to those which are rated in the two highest rating  categories
by a nationally  recognized rating agency at the time of the investment and such
obligations  must  continue  to be  rated  in  one of the  four  highest  rating
categories.  Commercial  bank  obligations,  such as  certificates  of  deposit,
brokers  acceptances,  and federal  funds must be rated "C" or better by a major
rating  service.  Commercial  paper must be rated A-1 by Standard and Poor's and
P-1 by Moody's.  The policies also allow  investments  in obligations of federal
agencies such as the Government National Mortgage  Association  ("GNMA"),  FNMA,
and FHLMC, and obligations issued by state and local governments.  MCHI does not
utilize options or financial or futures contracts.

         The  Company's  investment  portfolio  consists  of  marketable  equity
securities,  U.S.  Treasury and agency  securities,  state and municipal  bonds,
investment in two Indiana limited partnerships and FHLB stock. At June 30, 1996,
approximately  $14.2  million,  including  securities  at market value for those
classified as available for sale and at amortized  cost for those  classified as
held to maturity,  or 7.79% of the  Company's  total  assets,  consisted of such
investments.

         The following  tables set forth the carrying  value and market value of
the Company's investments at the dates indicated.

(1)      Securities  available  for sale are set  forth  at  amortized  cost for
         purposes of this table.

     The  Bank  owns  99%  of  the  limited  partnership   interests  in  Pedcor
Investments  1987-II,  an Indiana limited  partnership  ("Pedcor")  organized to
build,  own,  operate and lease a 144-unit  apartment  complex in  Indianapolis,
Indiana.  The project,  operated as  multi-family,  low/moderate  income housing
project,  is complete and performing as planned.  A low/moderate  income housing
project  qualifies  for certain tax  credits if (i) it is a  residential  rental
property, (ii) the units are used on a nontransient basis, and (iii) 20% or more
of the units in the project are  occupied  by tenants  whose  incomes are 50% or
less  of  the  area  median  gross  income,   adjusted  for  family  size,   or,
alternatively,  at least 40% of the units in the project are occupied by tenants
whose  incomes are 60% of the area median  gross  income.  Qualified  low income
housing projects  generally must comply with these and other rules for 15 years,
beginning with the first year the project  qualifies for the tax credit, or some
or all of the tax credit  together  with  interest  may be  recaptured.  The tax
credit is subject to limitations on the use of the general business credit,  but
no basis reduction is required for any portion of the tax credit claimed.

      The Bank  committed  to invest  approximately  $3.41  million in Pedcor at
inception of the project in January,  1988.  Through June 30, 1996, the Bank has
invested  approximately $3.28 million in Pedcor with 1 additional annual capital
contribution  remaining  to be paid in  January,  1997  totaling  $130,000.  The
additional  contribution  will be used for operating  and other  expenses of the
partnership.  This  payment is  contingent  upon the Bank not  exercising  a put
option which would require the general  partners to buy out the Bank's  interest
in the partnership for $5,000. The tax credits resulting from Pedcor's operation
of a  low/moderate  income  housing  project  will be  available  to the Company
through  1998.  Although the Company has reduced  income tax expense by the full
amount of the tax  credit  available  each  year,  it has not been able to fully
utilize  available tax credits to reduce income taxes payable  because it is not
allowed to use tax credits that would reduce its regular corporate tax liability
below its alternative  minimum tax liability.  The Bank may carryforward  unused
tax  credits  for a period of 15 years and  believes  it will be able to utilize
available tax credits during the carryforward period.



<PAGE>

      Pedcor has incurred operating losses from its operations  primarily due to
accelerated  depreciation  of assets  and  other  factors.  Certain  fees to the
general  partner not  recorded or  estimable  to date by the  partnership  under
provisions of the partnership  agreement could adversely affect future operating
results when  accrued or paid.  The Bank has  accounted  for its  investment  in
Pedcor on the equity method, and, accordingly,  has recorded its shares of these
losses as reductions to its  investment in Pedcor,  which at June 30, 1996,  was
$1.6 million.

         The following  summarizes the Bank's equity in Pedcor's  losses and tax
credits recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements:

      Federal regulations require an FHLB-member savings association to maintain
an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a monthly average of not less
than a  specified  percentage  of its net  withdrawable  savings  deposits  plus
short-term  borrowings.  Liquid  assets  include  cash,  certain time  deposits,
certain bankers' acceptances, specified U.S. government, state or federal agency
obligations, certain corporate debt securities, commercial paper, certain mutual
funds, certain mortgage-related  securities,  and certain first lien residential
mortgage loans.  This liquidity  requirement may be changed from time to time by
the OTS to any amount  within the range of 4% to 10%, and is currently 5%. Also,
a  savings   association   currently  must  maintain  short-term  liquid  assets
constituting  at least  1% of its  average  daily  balance  of net  withdrawable
deposit accounts and current  borrowings.  Monetary penalties may be imposed for
failure to meet these  liquidity  requirements.  At June 30, 1996,  the Bank had
liquid assets of $15.1 million,  and a regulatory  liquidity  ratio of 12.2%, of
which 7.8% constituted short-term investments. Sources of Funds

         General.  Deposits with the Bank have  traditionally been the Company's
primary  source  of funds  for use in  lending  and  investment  activities.  In
addition  to  deposits,  the  Company  derives  funds  from  loan  amortization,
prepayments,  retained  earnings  and  income  on  earning  assets.  While  loan
amortization  and income on  earning  assets are  relatively  stable  sources of
funds,  deposit  inflows  and  outflows  can vary widely and are  influenced  by
prevailing  interest rates,  market  conditions and levels of  competition.  The
Company also relies on  borrowings  from the Federal Home Loan Bank  ("FHLB") of
Indianapolis  to  support  the  Bank's  loan   originations  and  to  assist  in
asset/liability management.

         Deposits.  Deposits are  attracted,  principally  from within Grant and
contiguous counties and Adams County,  through the offering of a broad selection
of deposit instruments including NOW and other transaction accounts,  fixed-rate
certificates of deposit,  individual retirement accounts,  and savings accounts.
The Bank does not actively  solicit or advertise  for deposits  outside of Grant
and Adams Counties.  Substantially all of the Bank's depositors are residents of
those counties. Deposit account terms vary, with the principal differences being
the minimum balance required, the amount of time the funds remain on deposit and
the interest rate. The Bank has no brokered deposits.

         Interest  rates  paid,  maturity  terms,  service  fees and  withdrawal
penalties are  established  by the Bank on a periodic  basis.  Determination  of
rates and terms are predicated on funds acquisition and liquidity  requirements,
rates paid by  competitors,  growth  goals,  and federal  regulations.  The Bank
relies,  in part,  on customer  service  and  long-standing  relationships  with
customers to attract and retain its deposits,  but also aggressively  prices its
deposits in relation to rates offered by its competitors.

</TABLE>

         Borrowings.  Although  deposits  are the  Company's  primary  source of
funds, the Company's policy has been to utilize  borrowings when they are a less
costly  source  of funds  than  deposits  (taking  into  consideration  the FDIC
insurance premiums payable on deposits) or can be invested at a positive spread.
The Bank often funds  originations  of its  commercial  real estate loans with a
simultaneous  borrowing from the FHLB of  Indianapolis  to assure a profit above
its cost of funds.

         The  Company's   borrowings  consist  of  advances  from  the  FHLB  of
Indianapolis  upon the security of FHLB stock and certain  mortgage loans.  Such
advances are made pursuant to several  different  credit  programs each of which
has its own interest rate and range of  maturities.  The maximum amount that the
FHLB-Indianapolis  will advance to member associations,  including the Bank, for
purposes  other  than  meeting  withdrawals,  fluctuates  from  time  to time in
accordance with policies of the FHLB of Indianapolis.  At June 30, 1996, FHLB of
Indianapolis advances totaled $6.2 million, representing 3.5% of total assets.

         There are  regulatory  restrictions  on  advances  from the FHLBs.  See
"Regulation  - Federal Home Loan Bank System" and "- Qualified  Thrift  Leader."
These  limitations are not expected to have any impact on the Company's  ability
to borrow from the FHLB of  Indianapolis.  The Company does not  anticipate  any
problem obtaining  advances  appropriate to meet its requirements in the future,
if such advances should become necessary.

Service Corporation Subsidiary

         OTS regulations  permit federal  savings  associations to invest in the
capital  stock,   obligations,   or  other  specified  types  of  securities  of
subsidiaries  (referred to as "service  corporations") and to make loans to such
subsidiaries  and joint ventures in which such  subsidiaries are participants in
an  aggregate  amount  not  exceeding  2% of an  association's  assets,  plus an
additional 1% of assets if the amount over 2% is used for specified community or
inner-city  development  purposes.  In  addition,   federal  regulations  permit
associations to make specified types of loans to such  subsidiaries  (other than
special-purpose  finance subsidiaries),  in which the association owns more than
10% of the stock, in an aggregate amount not exceeding 50% of the  association's
regulatory capital if the association's regulatory capital is in compliance with
applicable regulations. Current law requires a savings association that acquires
a non-savings association  subsidiary,  or that elects to conduct a new activity
within a  subsidiary,  to give  the  FDIC  and the OTS at least 30 days  advance
written notice. The FDIC may, after consultation with the OTS, prohibit specific
activities if it determines such activities pose a serious threat to the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF").

         The Bank's only subsidiary,  First Marion Service  Corporation  ("First
Marion")  was  organized  in 1971 and  currently  is  engaged in the sale of tax
deferred annuities pursuant to an arrangement with One System,  Inc., a licensed
insurance  broker,  in  Indianapolis.  It also  sells  mutual  funds  through an
arrangement with Independent Financial  Securities,  Inc., a licensed securities
broker,  in White  Plains,  New York.  First  Marion has one  licensed  employee
engaged in such sales of tax deferred  annuities and mutual funds.  In addition,
beginning in July 1995, First Marion began providing 100% financing to borrowers
of the Bank by providing a 20% second  mortgage  behind the Bank's 80% mortgage.
Such loans amounted to $540,000 at June 30, 1996.

         At June  30,  1996,  the  Bank's  investment  in First  Marion  totaled
$58,000.  During the year ended June 30,  1996,  First  Marion had net income of
$14,000.

Employees

         As of June 30, 1996, the Bank employed 29 persons on a full-time  basis
and 2 persons on a part-time basis. None of the Bank's employees are represented
by a collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to
be good.

Competition

         The  Bank  originates  most of its  loans  to and  accepts  most of its
deposits from residents of Grant and Adams Counties, Indiana.

         The Bank is subject to competition from various financial institutions,
including  state and national  banks,  state and federal  savings  associations,
credit unions,  certain  nonbanking  consumer  lenders,  and other  companies or
firms,  including  brokerage houses and mortgage  brokers,  that provide similar
services in Grant and Adams Counties with  significantly  larger  resources than
the Bank. In  particular,  three  commercial  banks and one savings  association
compete  with the Bank in its market  area.  The Bank also  competes  with money
market  funds  and with  insurance  companies  with  respect  to its  individual
retirement accounts.

         Under  current  law,  bank  holding   companies  may  acquire   savings
associations.  Savings associations may also acquire banks under federal law. To
date, several bank holding company  acquisitions of healthy savings associations
in Indiana have been completed.  Affiliations  between banks and healthy savings
associations  based in Indiana may also  increase the  competition  faced by the
Bank and MCHI.

         In  addition,   the  Riegle-Neal   Interstate   Banking  and  Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Riegle-Neal Act") permits bank holding companies to
acquire  banks in other  states and,  with state  consent and subject to certain
limitations, allows banks to acquire out-of-state branches either through merger
or de novo expansion.  The State of Indiana  recently passed a law  establishing
interstate  branching  provisions for Indiana state chartered  banks  consistent
with those established by the Riegle-Neal Act (the "Indiana Branching Law"). The
Indiana Branching Law authorizes Indiana banks to branch interstate by merger or
de novo expansion and authorizes out-of-state banks meeting certain requirements
to branch into Indiana by merger or de novo expansion. The Indiana Branching Law
became effective March 15, 1996, provided that prior to June 1, 1997, interstate
mergers and de novo branches are not permitted to out-of-state  banks unless the
laws of their home states  permit  Indiana  banks to merger or establish de novo
branches  on a  reciprocal  basis.  This  new  legislation  may also  result  in
increased competition for the Company.

         Because of recent changes in Federal law,  interstate  acquisitions  of
banks are less restricted than they were under prior law.  Savings  associations
have certain powers to acquire savings  associations  based in other states, and
Indiana  law  expressly  permits  reciprocal   acquisition  of  Indiana  savings
associations.  In addition, Federal savings associations are permitted to branch
on an interstate basis.

         The primary factors  influencing  competition for deposits are interest
rates,  service and convenience of office locations.  The Bank competes for loan
originations  primarily  through  the  efficiency  and  quality of  services  it
provides  borrowers,  builders and realtors and through  interest rates and loan
fees it charges.  Competition  is affected by, among other  things,  the general
availability of lendable funds, general and local economic  conditions,  current
interest rate levels, and other factors that are not readily predictable.

                                   REGULATION

General

         The Bank,  as a federally  chartered  savings  bank, is a member of the
Federal  Home Loan Bank System  ("FHLB  System") and its deposits are insured by
the FDIC.  The Bank is  subject  to  extensive  regulation  by the OTS.  Federal
associations may not enter into certain  transactions  unless certain regulatory
tests are met or they obtain prior  governmental  approval and the  associations
must file reports with these  governmental  agencies about their  activities and
their  financial  condition.  Periodic  compliance  examinations of the Bank are
conducted  by the OTS  which  has,  in  conjunction  with  the  FDIC in  certain
situations,  examination and enforcement powers. This supervision and regulation
are intended  primarily for the  protection of  depositors  and federal  deposit
insurance funds. The Bank is also subject to certain reserve  requirements under
regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB").

         Congress  is  considering   legislation  that  would   consolidate  the
supervision   and  regulation  of  all  U.S.   financial   institutions  in  one
administrative body (the  "Legislation").  It cannot be predicted with certainty
whether or when the Legislation  will be enacted or the extent to which the Bank
would be affected thereby.

         An OTS  regulation  establishes  a schedule for the  assessment of fees
upon all savings  associations to fund the operations of the OTS. The regulation
also  establishes a schedule of fees for the various types of  applications  and
filings made by savings associations with the OTS. The general assessment, to be
paid on a  semiannual  basis,  is based  upon the  savings  association's  total
assets, including consolidated  subsidiaries,  as reported in a recent quarterly
thrift financial report. Currently, the assessment rates range from .0172761% of
assets for  associations  with  assets of $67 million or less to  .0045864%  for
associations  with  assets in  excess  of $35  billion.  The  Bank's  semiannual
assessment  under this assessment  scheme,  based upon its total assets at March
31, 1996, was $26,217.

         The Bank is also  subject to federal  and state  regulation  as to such
matters as loans to officers,  directors,  or principal  shareholders,  required
reserves,  limitations as to the nature and amount of its loans and investments,
regulatory  approval of any merger or consolidation,  issuance or retirements of
their own securities,  and limitations upon other aspects of banking operations.
In addition,  the  activities and operations of the Bank are subject to a number
of additional detailed, complex and sometimes overlapping federal and state laws
and regulations.  These include state usury and consumer credit laws, state laws
relating to fiduciaries,  the Federal Truth-In-Lending Act and Regulation Z, the
Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Regulation B, the Fair Credit Reporting
Act, the Community Reinvestment Act,  anti-redlining  legislation and anti-trust
laws.

Federal Home Loan Bank System

         The Bank is a member of the FHLB System,  which consists of 12 regional
banks.  The Federal  Housing  Finance Board  ("FHFB"),  an  independent  agency,
controls the FHLB System  including  the FHLB of  Indianapolis.  The FHLB System
provides a central credit facility primarily for member savings associations and
other  member  financial  institutions.  The Bank is  required to hold shares of
capital  stock in the FHLB of  Indianapolis  in an amount at least  equal to the
greater  of 1% of the  aggregate  principal  amount  of its  unpaid  residential
mortgage loans,  home purchase  contracts and similar  obligations at the end of
each  calendar  year,  .3% of its  assets  or 1/20  (or  such  greater  fraction
established by the FHLB) of outstanding  FHLB  advances,  commitments,  lines of
credit and letters of credit.  The Bank is  currently  in  compliance  with this
requirement.  At June 30, 1996,  the Bank's  investment  in stock of the FHLB of
Indianapolis was $988,400.

         In past years,  the Bank received  dividends on its FHLB stock.  All 12
FHLB's are  required  by law to provide  funds for the  resolution  of  troubled
savings associations and to establish affordable housing programs through direct
loans or  interest  subsidies  on  advances to members to be used for lending at
subsidized interest rates for low- and moderate-income,  owner-occupied  housing
projects, affordable rental housing, and certain other community projects. These
contributions  and obligations could adversely affect the value of FHLB stock in
the  future.  For the year  ending  June 30,  1996,  dividends  paid to the Bank
totaled $73,000, for an annual rate of 7.87%. A reduction in value of such stock
may result in a corresponding reduction in the Bank's capital.

         The FHLB of Indianapolis serves as a reserve or central bank for member
institutions  within its assigned  region.  It is funded primarily from proceeds
derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB

<PAGE>

System.  It makes advances to members in accordance with policies and procedures
established by the FHLB and the Board of Directors of the FHLB of Indianapolis.

         All FHLB advances  must be fully  secured by  sufficient  collateral as
determined by the FHLB.  Eligible  collateral includes first mortgage loans less
than 90 days delinquent or securities  evidencing interests therein,  securities
(including  mortgage-backed  securities)  issued,  insured or  guaranteed by the
federal  government  or any agency  thereof,  FHLB  deposits  and,  to a limited
extent,  real  estate  with  readily  ascertainable  value in which a  perfected
security interest may be obtained.  Other forms of collateral may be accepted as
over  collateralization  or, under certain  circumstances,  to renew outstanding
advances.  All long-term  advances are required to provide funds for residential
home financing and the FHLB has established  standards of community service that
members must meet to maintain access to long-term advances.

         Interest rates charged for advances vary  depending upon maturity,  the
cost of funds to the FHLB of  Indianapolis  and the  purpose  of the  borrowing.
Under  current law,  savings  associations  which cease to be  Qualified  Thrift
Lenders are ineligible to receive advances from their FHLB.

Insurance of Deposits

         Deposit  Insurance.  The FDIC is an  independent  federal  agency  that
insures the deposits,  up to prescribed  statutory  limits, of banks and thrifts
and  safeguards  the safety and soundness of the banking and thrift  industries.
The FDIC administers two separate  insurance funds, the BIF for commercial banks
and state  savings  banks and the SAIF for savings  associations  and banks that
have  acquired  deposits  from  savings  associations.  The FDIC is  required to
maintain  designated  levels of reserves in each fund.  The reserves of the SAIF
are currently below the level required by law,  primarily  because a significant
portion of the assessments  paid into the SAIF have been used to pay the cost of
prior thrift  failures,  while the reserves of the BIF met the level required by
law in May, 1995.  Thrifts are generally  prohibited  from  converting  from one
insurance fund to the other until the SAIF meets its  designated  reserve level,
except  with the  prior  approval  of the FDIC in  certain  limited  cases,  and
provided certain fees are paid. The insurance fund conversion  provisions do not
prohibit a SAIF member from  converting to a bank charter or merging with a bank
during  the  moratorium  as  long as the  resulting  bank  continues  to pay the
applicable  insurance  assessments to the SAIF during such period and as long as
certain other conditions are met.

         Assessments.  The  FDIC is  authorized  to  establish  separate  annual
assessment rates for deposit insurance for members of the BIF and members of the
SAIF.  The FDIC may  increase  assessment  rates for either fund if necessary to
restore the fund's  ratio of reserves  to insured  deposits to the target  level
within a reasonable  time and may  decrease  such rates if such target level has
been met. The FDIC has established a risk-based  assessment system for both SAIF
and BIF members.  Under this system,  assessments vary depending on the risk the
institution  poses to its deposit  insurance fund. Such risk level is determined
based on the  institution's  capital  level and the FDIC's level of  supervisory
concern about the institution.

         Because  of the  differing  reserve  levels  of the  SAIF  and the BIF,
deposit insurance assessments paid by well-capitalized  BIF-insured institutions
were recently  reduced  significantly  below the level paid by  well-capitalized
SAIF-insured  institutions.  Assessments paid by  well-capitalized  SAIF-insured
institutions exceeded those paid by well-capitalized BIF-insured institutions by
approximately $0.19 per $100 in deposits in late 1995 and exceeded them by $0.23
per $100 in deposits  beginning  in 1996.  Such premium  disparity  could have a
negative  competitive  impact  on the  Bank and  other  institutions  with  SAIF
deposits.

         Congress   has  recently   considered   many   proposals   designed  to
recapitalize the SAIF and eliminate the significant  premium  disparity  between
the BIF  and  the  SAIF.  Among  those  considered  is a  recapitalization  plan
providing for a special  assessment,  currently estimated at approximately $0.68
per $100 of SAIF  deposits,  in order to  increase  SAIF  reserves  to the level
required by law. Certain BIF-insured banks holding  SAIF-insured  deposits would
pay a lower special assessment.  In addition,  the cost of prior thrift failures
would be shared by both the SAIF and the BIF. Such cost sharing  might  increase
BIF assessments. SAIF assessments for well-capitalized SAIF-insured institutions
would be set at a significantly lower level after the legislation is adopted and
could  never be  reduced  below the level set for  well-capitalized  BIF-insured
institutions. The recapitalization plan also provides for the merger of the SAIF
and BIF on  January 1, 1998,  subject  to certain  conditions.  It has also been
proposed that the savings  association  charter be eliminated in connection with
the proposed merger of the BIF and SAIF.


<PAGE>

          The Bank had  $126.3  million in  deposits  at June 30,  1996.  If the
one-time special assessment in the legislative proposal is enacted into law, the
Bank will pay an  additional  after-tax  assessment  of  approximately  $520,000
(based upon deposits at June 30, 1996),  which will reduce  capital and earnings
for the  quarter  in which  any such  assessment  is  recorded.  However,  it is
expected that quarterly SAIF assessments would be reduced significantly sometime
after adoption of the legislation.

         No  assurances  can  be  given  that  the  SAIF  recapitalization  plan
discussed  above or any other plan will be  enacted  into law or in what form it
may be  enacted.  In  addition,  the  Company  can give no  assurances  that the
disparity  between BIF and SAIF assessments will be eliminated.  If the proposed
legislation is not adopted, SAIF premiums may increase and the disparity between
BIF and SAIF premiums may become greater, with a resulting adverse effect on the
Company's operations.

Regulatory Capital

         Currently,  savings  associations are subject to three separate minimum
capital-to-assets  requirements:  (i) a leverage limit,  (ii) a tangible capital
requirement,  and (iii) a risk-based  capital  requirement.  The leverage  limit
requires that savings  associations  maintain  "core  capital" of at least 3% of
total assets. Core capital is generally defined as common  stockholders'  equity
(including retained income), noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related
surplus,   certain  minority  equity   interests  in  subsidiaries,   qualifying
supervisory  goodwill  (on a declining  basis until  1995),  purchased  mortgage
servicing  rights (which may be included in an amount up to 50% of core capital,
but which are to be reported on an association's  balance sheet at the lesser of
90% of their fair market value, 90% of their original purchase price, or 100% of
their remaining unamortized book value), and purchased credit card relationships
(which  may  be  included  in  an  amount  up  to  25%  of  core  capital)  less
nonqualifying  intangibles.  Under the tangible capital  requirement,  a savings
association  must maintain  tangible  capital (core capital less all  intangible
assets except  purchased  mortgage  servicing rights which may be included after
making the above-noted  adjustments) of at least 1.5% of total assets. Under the
risk-based capital requirements,  a minimum amount of capital must be maintained
by a savings  association to account for the relative risks inherent in the type
and amount of assets held by the savings  association.  The  risk-based  capital
requirement   requires  a  savings  association  to  maintain  capital  (defined
generally for these purposes as core capital plus general  valuation  allowances
and  permanent  or maturing  capital  instruments  such as  preferred  stock and
subordinated  debt  less  assets  required  to be  deducted)  equal  to  8.0% of
risk-weighted  assets.  Assets are  ranked as to risk in one of four  categories
(0-100%)  with a credit  risk-free  asset such as cash  requiring no  risk-based
capital and an asset with a significant  credit risk such as a non-accrual  loan
being  assigned  a  factor  of  100%.  At June 30,  1996,  based on the  capital
standards then in effect,  the Bank was in compliance  with the fully  phased-in
capital requirements.

         The OTS has  delayed  implementation  of a rule  which  sets  forth the
methodology  for  calculating an interest rate risk component to be incorporated
into the OTS regulatory capital rule. Under the rule, only savings  associations
with "above normal"  interest rate risk  (institutions  whose  portfolio  equity
would decline in value by more than 2% of assets in the event of a  hypothetical
200-basis-point  move in interest rates) will be required to maintain additional
capital  for  interest  rate risk under the  risk-based  capital  framework.  In
addition,  most  institutions  with  less  than $300  million  in  assets  and a
risk-based capital ratio in excess of 12%, such as the Bank, are subject to less
stringent reporting  requirements relating to the interest rate component of the
new rule. Although the OTS has decided to delay  implementation of this rule, it
will  continue  to  monitor  the  level  of  interest  rate  risk at  individual
institutions  and it retains the authority,  on a case-by-case  basis, to impose
additional  capital  requirements for individual  institutions  with significant
interest rate risk.

         If an association is not in compliance  with its capital  requirements,
the OTS is required to prohibit  asset growth and to impose a capital  directive
that may restrict,  among other  things,  the payment of dividends and officers'
compensation. In addition, the OTS and the FDIC generally are authorized to take
enforcement actions against a savings association that fails to meet its capital
requirements,  which actions may include  restrictions on operations and banking
activities,  the  imposition of a capital  directive,  a cease and desist order,
civil money penalties or harsher  measures such as the appointment of a receiver
or conservator or a forced merger into another institution.

Prompt Corrective Action

         FedICIA   requires,   among  other  things,   federal  bank  regulatory
authorities to take "prompt corrective action" with respect to institutions that
do  not  meet  minimum  capital  requirements.   For  these  purposes,   FedICIA
establishes  five  capital  tiers:  well  capitalized,  adequately  capitalized,
undercapitalized,     significantly     undercapitalized,     and     critically
undercapitalized.   At  June  30,  1996,  the  Bank  was  categorized  as  "well
capitalized."

         An  institution  is deemed to be "well  capitalized"  if it has a total
risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of
6% or greater,  and a leverage  ratio of 5% or greater,  and is not subject to a
regulatory order, agreement or directive to meet and maintain a specific capital
level for any  capital  measure.  An  institution  is  deemed to be  "adequately
capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier
I risk-based  capital ratio of 4% or greater,  and generally a leverage ratio 4%
or greater. An institution is deemed to be  "undercapitalized" if it has a total
risk-based  capital ratio of less than 8%, a Tier I risk-based  capital ratio of
less  than  4%,  or  generally  a  leverage  ratio  of  less  than  4%;  and (d)
"significantly  undercapitalized"  if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of
less than 6%, a Tier I risk-based  capital  ratio of less than 3%, or a leverage
ratio  of  less  than  3%.   An   institution   is  deemed  to  be   "critically
undercapitalized"  if it has a ratio  of  tangible  equity  (as  defined  in the
regulations) to total assets that is equal to or less than 2%.

         "Undercapitalized"  institutions are subject to growth  limitations and
are  required to submit a capital  restoration  plan.  If an  "undercapitalized"
institution  fails to submit,  or fails to implement in a material  respect,  an
acceptable  plan,  it is treated as if it is  "significantly  undercapitalized."
"Significantly  undercapitalized"  institutions  are subject to one or more of a
number of requirements and restrictions,  including an order by the FDIC to sell
sufficient voting stock to become adequately capitalized, requirements to reduce
total  assets and cease  receipt  of  deposits  from  correspondent  banks,  and
restrictions    on    compensation    of   executive    officers.    "Critically
undercapitalized"  institutions  may  not,  beginning  60  days  after  becoming
"critically  undercapitalized,"  make any  payment of  principal  or interest on
certain subordinated debt or extend credit for a highly leveraged transaction or
enter into any transaction outside the ordinary course of business. In addition,
"critically  undercapitalized"  institutions  are  subject to  appointment  of a
receiver or conservator.

Capital Distributions Regulation

         An OTS regulation imposes limitations upon all "capital  distributions"
by savings associations, including cash dividends, payments by an institution to
repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares,  payments to shareholders of another
institution  in a  cash-out  merger  and  other  distributions  charged  against
capital.  The regulation  establishes a three-tiered system of regulation,  with
the greatest  flexibility  being afforded to  well-capitalized  institutions.  A
savings  association  which has total  capital  (immediately  prior to and after
giving effect to the capital  distribution)  that is at least equal to its fully
phased-in  capital   requirements  would  be  a  Tier  1  institution  ("Tier  1
Institution").  An  institution  that has total  capital  at least  equal to its
minimum  capital  requirements,  but  less  than  its  fully  phased-in  capital
requirements,  would  be  a  Tier  2  institution  ("Tier  2  Institution").  An
institution  having  total  capital  that  is  less  than  its  minimum  capital
requirements would be a Tier 3 institution ("Tier 3 Institution").  However,  an
institution which otherwise  qualifies as a Tier 1 institution may be designated
by the OTS as a Tier 2 or Tier 3  institution  if the OTS  determines  that  the
institution is "in need of more than normal  supervision." The Bank is currently
a Tier 1 Institution.

         A Tier 1 Institution could, after prior notice but without the approval
of the OTS, make capital  distributions during a calendar year up to 100% of its
net income to date during the calendar  year plus an amount that would reduce by
one-half  its  "surplus  capital  ratio" (the  excess  over its Fully  Phased-in
Capital  Requirements)  at the beginning of the calendar  year.  Any  additional
amount of capital distributions would require prior regulatory approval.

         The OTS has proposed  revisions to these regulations which would permit
savings  associations  to declare  dividends in amounts  which would assure that
they remain adequately  capitalized following the dividend declaration.  Savings
associations  in a holding company system which are rated Camel 1 or 2 and which
are not in  troubled  condition  would need to file a prior  notice with the OTS
concerning such dividend declaration.


<PAGE>

Real Estate Lending Standards

         OTS regulations require savings  associations to establish and maintain
written  internal  real estate  lending  policies.  Each  association's  lending
policies  must  be  consistent  with  safe  and  sound  banking   practices  and
appropriate  to the size of the  association  and the  nature  and  scope of its
operations.   The  policies  must  establish   loan  portfolio   diversification
standards;  establish prudent underwriting  standards,  including  loan-to-value
limits, that are clear and measurable;  establish loan administration procedures
for the  association's  real  estate  portfolio;  and  establish  documentation,
approval,   and  reporting   requirements   to  monitor   compliance   with  the
association's real estate lending policies.

         The association's written real estate lending policies must be reviewed
and approved by the association's board of directors at least annually. Further,
each association is expected to monitor  conditions in its real estate market to
ensure that its lending  policies  continue to be appropriate for current market
conditions.

Safety and Soundness Standards

         On February 2, 1995, the federal banking  agencies adopted final safety
and soundness standards for all insured depository institutions.  The standards,
which were issued in the form of guidelines rather than  regulations,  relate to
internal   controls,   information   systems,   internal  audit  systems,   loan
underwriting  and  documentation,  compensation  and interest rate exposure.  In
general,  the standards are designed to assist the federal  banking  agencies in
identifying and addressing  problems at insured depository  institutions  before
capital becomes impaired.  If an institution fails to meet these standards,  the
appropriate  federal  banking  agency may  require the  institution  to submit a
compliance  plan.  Failure to submit a compliance plan may result in enforcement
proceedings. Additional standards on earnings and classified assets are expected
to be issued in the near future.

Federal Reserve System

         Under  FRB  regulations,  the Bank is  required  to  maintain  reserves
against its  transaction  accounts  (primarily  checking and NOW  accounts)  and
non-personal money market deposit accounts. A federal savings association,  like
other depository  institutions  maintaining reservable accounts, may borrow from
the Federal Reserve Bank "discount  window," but the FRB's  regulations  require
the  savings  association  to  exhaust  other  reasonable  alternative  sources,
including  borrowing from its regional FHLB,  before  borrowing from the Federal
Reserve  Bank.   FedICIA   imposes   certain   limitations  on  the  ability  of
undercapitalized depository institutions to borrow from Federal Reserve Banks.

Holding Company Regulation

         MCHI is  regulated  as a  "non-diversified  unitary  savings  and  loan
holding  company"  within the meaning of the Home  Owners'  Loan Act, as amended
("HOLA"),  and subject to  regulatory  oversight  of the Director of the OTS. As
such, MCHI is registered  with the OTS and thereby  subject to OTS  regulations,
examinations,  supervision  and  reporting  requirements.  As a subsidiary  of a
savings and loan holding company, the Bank is subject to certain restrictions in
its dealings with MCHI and with other companies affiliated with MCHI.

         HOLA generally  prohibits a savings and loan holding  company,  without
prior  approval of the Director of the OTS,  from (i)  acquiring  control of any
other savings association or savings and loan holding company or controlling the
assets  thereof or (ii) acquiring or retaining more than 5 percent of the voting
shares  of a savings  association  or  holding  company  thereof  which is not a
subsidiary. Additionally, under certain circumstances a savings and loan holding
company is permitted  to acquire,  with the approval of the Director of the OTS,
up to 15 percent of previously  unissued  voting shares of an  under-capitalized
savings  association  for cash  without that  savings  association  being deemed
controlled  by the  holding  company.  Except  with the  prior  approval  of the
Director  of the OTS,  no  director  or  officer of a savings  and loan  holding
company or person owning or  controlling  by proxy or otherwise more than 25% of
such company's stock may also acquire control of any savings institution,  other
than a subsidiary institution, or any other savings and loan holding company.

         MCHI's Board of Directors presently intends to continue to operate MCHI
as  a  unitary  savings  and  loan  holding  company.  There  are  generally  no
restrictions  on the  permissible  business  activities of a unitary savings and
loan holding company.  However,  if the Director of OTS determines that there is
reasonable  case to believe that the  continuation by a savings and loan holding
company of an  activity  constitutes  a serious  risk to the  financial  safety,
soundness,  or stability of its subsidiary savings association,  the Director of
the OTS may impose such  restrictions  as deemed  necessary to address such risk

<PAGE>

and  limiting  (i)  payment  of  dividends  by  the  savings  association,  (ii)
transactions  between the savings association and its affiliates,  and (iii) any
activities of the savings  association that might create a serious risk that the
liabilities  of the  holding  company and its  affiliates  may be imposed on the
savings association.

         Notwithstanding  the above rules as to permissible  business activities
of unitary  savings  and loan  holding  companies,  if the  savings  association
subsidiary of such a holding  company fails to meet the Qualified  Thrift Lender
("QTL") test,  then such unitary  holding  company  would become  subject to the
activities  restrictions  applicable to multiple holding companies.  (Additional
restrictions on securing  advances from the FHLB also apply).  See  "--Qualified
Thrift Lender." At June 30, 1996, the Bank's asset  composition was in excess of
that required to qualify the Bank as a Qualified Thrift Lender.

         If MCHI were to acquire  control of another savings  institution  other
than through a merger or other business  combination  with the Bank,  MCHI would
thereupon become a multiple savings and loan holding company.  Except where such
acquisition   is  pursuant  to  the  authority  to  approve   emergency   thrift
acquisitions and where each subsidiary  savings  association meets the QTL test,
the activities of MCHI and any of its subsidiaries (other than the Bank or other
subsidiary  savings   associations)  would  thereafter  be  subject  to  further
restrictions.  HOLA provides that,  among other things,  no multiple savings and
loan holding  company or subsidiary  thereof which is not a savings  association
shall  commence  or  continue  for a limited  period of time  after  becoming  a
multiple  savings and loan holding company or subsidiary  thereof,  any business
activity  other than (i)  furnishing  or  performing  management  services for a
subsidiary  savings  association,  (ii) conducting an insurance agency or escrow
business,  (iii) holding,  managing,  or liquidating assets owned by or acquired
from a subsidiary savings institution,  (iv) holding or managing properties used
or occupied by a subsidiary  savings  institution,  (v) acting as trustee  under
deeds of trust,  (vi) those  activities  previously  directly  authorized by the
FSLIC by regulation  as of March 5, 1987,  to be engaged in by multiple  holding
companies or (vii) those  activities  authorized by the FRB as  permissible  for
bank holding companies,  unless the Director of the OTS by regulation  prohibits
or  limits  such  activities  for  savings  and loan  holding  companies.  Those
activities described in (vii) above must also be approved by the Director of the
OTS prior to being engaged in by a multiple holding company.

         The Director of the OTS may also approve acquisitions  resulting in the
formation of a multiple  savings and loan holding company which controls savings
associations  in more than one state,  if the multiple  savings and loan holding
company involved controls a savings  association which operated a home or branch
office in the state of the association to be acquired as of March 5,1987,  or if
the  laws of the  state in which  the  institution  to be  acquired  is  located
specifically permit institutions to be acquired by state-chartered  institutions
or savings and loan holding  companies  located in the state where the acquiring
entity is located (or by a holding  company that controls  such  state-chartered
savings institutions).  Also, the Director of the OTS may approve an acquisition
resulting in a multiple  savings and loan holding  company  controlling  savings
associations  in more than one  state in the case of  certain  emergency  thrift
acquisitions.

         No subsidiary savings association of a savings and loan holding company
may declare or pay a dividend on its permanent or  nonwithdrawable  stock unless
it  first  gives  the  Director  of the  OTS 30  days  advance  notice  of  such
declaration and payment. Any dividend declared during such period or without the
giving of such notice shall be invalid.

Federal Securities Law

         The shares of Common  Stock of MCHI are  registered  with the SEC under
the 1934 Act. MCHI is subject to the information,  proxy  solicitation,  insider
trading restrictions and other requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules of the
SEC thereunder.  After the third  anniversary of the Bank's  conversion to stock
form,  if MCHI has fewer than 300  shareholders,  it may  deregister  its shares
under the 1934 Act and cease to be subject to the foregoing requirements.

         Shares of Common Stock held by persons who are  affiliates  of MCHI may
not be resold without  registration or unless sold in accordance with the resale
restrictions  of Rule 144 under the 1933 Act. If MCHI meets the  current  public
information  requirements  under Rule 144,  each  affiliate of MCHI who complies
with the other conditions of Rule 144 (including the two-year holding period and

<PAGE>

those that require the  affiliate's  sale to be aggregated with those of certain
other persons) would be able to sell in the public market, without registration,
a number of shares not to exceed, in any three-month  period, the greater of (i)
1% of the  outstanding  shares  of MCHI or (ii) the  average  weekly  volume  of
trading in such shares during the preceding four calendar weeks.

Qualified Thrift Lender

         Under  current OTS  regulations,  the QTL test  requires that a savings
association  have at least 65% of its  portfolio  assets  invested in "qualified
thrift  investments"  on a monthly  average  basis in 9 out of every 12  months.
Qualified  thrift  investments  under the QTL test  include:  (i) loans  made to
purchase,  refinance,  construct, improve or repair domestic residential housing
or  manufactured   housing;   (ii)  home  equity  loans;  (iii)  mortgage-backed
securities;  (iv) direct or indirect existing  obligations of either the FDIC or
the FSLIC for ten years from the date of  issuance,  if issued  prior to July 1,
1989;  (v)  obligations  of the  FDIC,  FSLIC,  FSLIC  Resolution  Fund  and the
Resolution Trust Corporation for a five year period from July 1, 1989, if issued
after such date; (vi) FHLB stock;  (vii) 50% of the dollar amount of residential
mortgage  loans  originated  and  sold  within  90 days of  origination;  (viii)
investments  in service  corporations  that  derive at least 80% of their  gross
revenues  from   activities   directly   related  to  purchasing,   refinancing,
constructing,  improving  or  repairing  domestic  residential  real  estate  or
manufactured  housing;  (ix) 200% of the dollar amount of loans and  investments
made to acquire,  develop and construct one- to four-family  residences that are
valued at no more than 60% of the median value of homes constructed in the area;
(x) 200% of the dollar amount of loans for the  acquisition  or  improvement  of
residential real property,  churches, schools, and nursing homes located within,
and loans for any purpose to any small business  located  within,  an area where
credit needs of its low and moderate income residents are determined not to have
been adequately met; (xi) loans for the purchase,  construction,  improvement or
upkeep of churches,  schools,  nursing homes and  hospitals not qualified  under
(x);  (xii) up to 10% of  portfolio  assets held in consumer  loans or loans for
educational  purposes;  and (xiii) FHLMC and FNMA stock.  However, the aggregate
amount of investments in categories (vii)-(xiii) which may be taken into account
for the purpose of whether an  institution  meets the QTL test cannot exceed 15%
of  portfolio  assets.  Portfolio  assets  under the QTL test  include all of an
association's assets less (i) goodwill and other intangibles,  (ii) the value of
property used by the  association to conduct its business,  and (iii) its liquid
assets as required to be maintained under law up to 20% of total assets.

         A savings  association  which  fails to meet the QTL test  must  either
convert to a bank (but its deposit  insurance  assessments  and payments will be
those of and paid to SAIF) or be subject to the following penalties:  (i) it may
not enter into any new activity except for those permissible for a national bank
and for a savings association; (ii) its branching activities shall be limited to
those  of a  national  bank;  (iii) it shall  not be  eligible  for any new FHLB
advances; and (iv) it shall be bound by regulations applicable to national banks
respecting  payment of  dividends.  Three years  after  failing the QTL test the
association must (i) dispose of any investment or activity not permissible for a
national  bank and a savings  association  and (ii) repay all  outstanding  FHLB
advances.  If such a savings  association  is  controlled  by a savings and loan
holding  company,  then such holding  company  must,  within a  prescribed  time
period,  become  registered as a bank holding  company and become subject to all
rules  and  regulations   applicable  to  bank  holding   companies   (including
restrictions as to the scope of permissible business activities).

         A savings  association  failing to meet the QTL test may requalify as a
QTL if it thereafter meets the QTL test. In the event of such requalification it
shall not be subject to the penalties  described  above.  A savings  association
which  subsequently  again  fails to  qualify  under the QTL test  shall  become
subject to all of the described  penalties  without  application  of any waiting
period.

         At June 30, 1996,  83.17% of the Bank's portfolio assets (as defined on
that date) were  invested in qualified  thrift  investments  (as defined on that
date), and therefore the Bank's asset composition was in excess of that required
to qualify the Bank as a QTL.  Also,  the Bank does not expect to  significantly
change its lending or investment  activities  in the near future,  and therefore
expects  to  continue  to  qualify  as a QTL,  although  there  can  be no  such
assurance.

Community Reinvestment Act Matters

         Under  current  law,  ratings  of  depository  institutions  under  the
Community  Reinvestment  Act of 1977 ("CRA") must be disclosed.  The  disclosure
includes both a four-unit descriptive rating -- using terms such as satisfactory
and   unsatisfactory  --  and  a  written   evaluation  of  each   institution's
performance.   Each  FHLB  is  required  to  establish  standards  of  community
investment  or service that its members must  maintain for  continued  access to
long-term  advances from the FHLBs.  The standards  take into account a member's
performance  under the CRA and its record of lending to first-time  home buyers.
The FHLBs have  established  an  "Affordable  Housing  Program" to subsidize the
interest  rate of  advances  to  member  associations  engaged  in  lending  for
long-term,  low-  and  moderate-income,  owner-occupied  and  affordable  rental
housing at subsidized  rates.  The Bank is  participating  in this program.  The
examiners have  determined  that the Bank has an  outstanding  record of meeting
community credit needs.


                                    TAXATION
Federal Taxation

         Historically,  savings  associations,  such  as  the  Bank,  have  been
permitted to compute bad debt deductions using either the bank experience method
or the percentage of taxable income method.  However,  for years beginning after
December  31,  1995,  the Bank will no longer be able to use the  percentage  of
taxable  income method of computing its  allowable tax bad debt  deduction.  The
Bank will be required to compute its allowable  deduction  using the  experience
method.  As a result of the repeal of the  percentage of taxable  income method,
reserves  taken  after  1987  using the  percentage  of  taxable  income  method
generally  must be included  in future  taxable  income over a six-year  period,
although  a  two-year  delay  may  be  permitted  for  institutions   meeting  a
residential  mortgage loan origination test. In addition,  the pre-1988 reserve,
for which no deferred taxes have been  recorded,  will not have to be recaptured
into income unless (i) the Bank no longer qualifies as a bank under the Code, or
(ii) excess dividends are paid out by the Bank.

         Depending  on the  composition  of its items of income and  expense,  a
savings  association  may be subject to the  alternative  minimum tax. A savings
association must pay an alternative  minimum tax equal to the amount (if any) by
which 20% of  alternative  minimum  taxable  income  ("AMTI"),  as reduced by an
exemption  varying with AMTI,  exceeds the regular tax due. AMTI equals  regular
taxable  income   increased  or  decreased  by  certain  tax   preferences   and
adjustments,  including depreciation  deductions in excess of that allowable for
alternative  minimum tax purposes,  tax-exempt interest on most private activity
bonds  issued  after  August 7, 1986  (reduced by any related  interest  expense
disallowed  for  regular  tax  purposes),  the  amount  of the bad debt  reserve
deduction  claimed in excess of the deduction based on the experience method and
75% of the excess of adjusted current earnings over AMTI (before this adjustment
and before any alternative tax net operating loss).  AMTI may be reduced only up
to 90% by net operating loss carryovers,  but alternative  minimum tax paid that
is attributable to most  preferences can be credited  against regular tax due in
later years.

         For federal  income tax purposes,  MCHI reports its income and expenses
on the  accrual  method of  accounting.  MCHI and the Bank  file a  consolidated
federal  income tax return for each  fiscal  year  ending  June 30. The  federal
income  tax  returns  filed by MCHI (or  previously  by the Bank)  have not been
audited in the last five years.

         The  consolidated  federal income tax return filed by MCHI and the Bank
has the effect of eliminating intercompany  distributions,  including dividends,
in the computation of consolidated taxable income. Income of MCHI generally will
not be taken into account in determining  the bad debt deduction  allowed to the
Bank, regardless whether a consolidated tax return is filed.

State Taxation

         For its  taxable  period  beginning  January 1, 1990,  the Bank  became
subject to Indiana's Financial  Institutions Tax ("FIT"),  which is imposed at a
flat rate of 8.5% on  "adjusted  gross  income."  "Adjusted  gross  income," for
purposes of FIT, begins with taxable income as defined by Section 63 of the Code
and, thus, incorporates federal

<PAGE>

tax law to the extent that it affects the computation of taxable income. Federal
taxable  income  is  then  adjusted  by  several  Indiana  modifications.  Other
applicable  state taxes include  generally  applicable  sales and use taxes plus
real and personal property taxes.

         MCHI's (or  previously  the Bank's)  state  income tax returns have not
been audited in the last five years.

Item 5.  Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.

         The Bank  converted  from a federally  charted mutual savings bank to a
federally charted stock savings bank effective March 18, 1993 (the "Conversion")
and  simultaneously  formed a savings and loan  holding  company,  MCHI.  MCHI's
common  stock,  without par value  ("Common  Stock"),  is quoted on the National
Association  of  Securities  Dealers  Automated   Quotation  System  ("NASDAQ"),
National Market System,  under the symbol "MARN." The following table sets forth
the high and low prices, as reported by NASDAQ, and dividends paid per share for
Common Stock for the quarter indicated. Such over-the-counter quotations reflect
inter-dealer prices,  without retail mark-up,  mark-down or commission,  and may
not necessarily represent actual transactions.

         As of August 23, 1996,  there were 538 record  holders of MCHI's Common
Stock.  MCHI  estimates  that,  as of that date,  there were  approximately  900
additional  shareholders in "street" name. The Company's percentage of dividends
per share to net income per share was 60.7%, 56.8% and 53.0% for the years ended
June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

         Since  MCHI has no  independent  operations  or other  subsidiaries  to
generate  income,  its ability to  accumulate  earnings  for the payment of cash
dividends to its  shareholders  is directly  dependent  upon the earnings on its
investment securities and ability of the Bank to pay dividends to MCHI.

         Under OTS regulations,  a converted savings association may not declare
or pay a cash  dividend if the effect would be to reduce its net worth below the
amount required for the liquidation account created at the time it converted. In
addition,  under OTS regulations,  the extent to which a savings association may
make  a  "capital  distribution,"  which  includes,  among  other  things,  cash
dividends, will depend upon in which one of three categories,  based upon levels
of capital, that savings association is classified.  The Bank is now and expects
to continue to be a "tier one  institution"  and therefore  would be able to pay
cash  dividends  to MCHI during any  calendar  year up to 100% of its net income
during  that  calendar  year plus the amount  that would  reduce by one half its
"surplus   capital  ratio"  (the  excess  over  its  fully   phased-in   capital
requirements)  at the  beginning  of the  calendar  year.  Prior  notice  of any
dividend to be paid by the Bank will have to be given to the OTS.

         Under  current  federal  income tax law,  dividend  distributions  with
respect to the Common Stock, to the extent that such dividends paid are from the
current or  accumulated  earnings  and  profits of the Bank (as  calculated  for
federal  income  tax  purposes),  will be  taxable  as  ordinary  income  to the
recipient and will not be deductible by the Bank. Any dividend  distributions in
excess of  current or  accumulated  earnings  and  profits  will be treated  for
federal income tax purposes as a distribution  from the Bank's  accumulated  bad
debt reserves,  which could result in increased  federal income taxes  liability
for the Bank.

         Unlike the Bank,  generally  there is no regulatory  restriction on the
payment of dividends by MCHI,  subject to the  determination  of the director of
the OTS that there is reasonable  cause to believe that the payment of dividends
constitutes  a serious risk to the financial  safety,  soundness or stability of
the Bank.  Indiana law, however,  would prohibit MCHI from paying a dividend if,
after giving effect to the payment of that  dividend,  MCHI would not be able to
pay its debts as they become due in the ordinary course of business or if MCHI's
total  assets  would  be  less  that  the  sum of  its  total  liabilities  plus
preferential rights of holders of preferred stock, if any.

         of the date of  termination,  shall be  increased  monthly  (using  the
         Interest Factor) from the date

                                                        -7-

         of termination  until the Executive's  Benefit Age. The Accrued Benefit
         measured as of the  Executive's  Benefit Age shall be  annuitized  into
         monthly installments using the Interest Factor and shall be payable for
         the Payout Period.  In the event the Executive dies prior to completion
         of all such monthly installments, the Bank shall pay to the Executive's
         Beneficiary  a  continuation  of  the  monthly   installments  for  the
         remainder of the Payout Period.

2.4     Termination of Service Related to a Change in Control.

         (a)      If the Executive's  termination of service (as defined in this
                  Subsection)  is related to a Change in Control,  the Executive
                  shall  be  entitled  to  receive  his  Excess   Benefit   upon
                  attainment of his Benefit Age, payment of which shall commence
                  on his Benefit  Eligibility  Date.  In the event the Executive
                  dies at any time after attaining his Benefit Age, but prior to
                  completion of all such payments due and owing  hereunder,  the
                  Bank shall pay to the  Executive's  Beneficiary a continuation
                  of the monthly  installments  for the  remainder of the Payout
                  Period.

         (b)      For  purposes  of this  Subsection,  "termination  of service"
                  shall include the following:

                           If, at any time following said Change in Control, (i)
                           the  employment  of the  Executive  is  involuntarily
                           terminated   by  the   Bank,   or  (ii)   voluntarily
                           terminated  by the  Executive  after:  (A) a material
                           change

                                                        -8-

<PAGE>



                           in   the    Executive's    function,    duties,    or
                           responsibilities,   which   change  would  cause  the
                           Executive's   position   to  become   one  of  lesser
                           responsibility,   importance,   or  scope   from  the
                           position the Executive held at the time of the Change
                           in  Control,  (B) a  relocation  of  the  Executive's
                           principal  place of  employment  by more than  thirty
                           (30) miles from its  location  prior to the Change in
                           Control,  or (C) a material reduction in the benefits
                           and  perquisites  to the  Executive  from those being
                           provided at the time of the Change in Control.

         (c)      Should the  Executive die after being  terminated  following a
                  Change in  Control,  but prior to  commencement  of the Excess
                  Benefit,  his  Beneficiary  shall be  entitled  to receive the
                  Survivor's  Benefit,  payment of which shall  commence  within
                  thirty (30) days following the Executive's death.

2.5      Termination  for Cause.  If the Executive is terminated for Cause,  all
         benefits  under this  Agreement  shall be forfeited and this  Agreement
         shall become null and void.

2.6      Disability  Benefit.  If the Executive's service is terminated prior to
         Benefit  Age due to a  disability  which meets the  criteria  set forth
         below,  the Executive may request to receive the Disability  Benefit in
         lieu of the retirement  benefit  described in Section 2.1 (which is not
         available prior to the Executive's Benefit Eligibility Date).


                                                        -9-

<PAGE>



         Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  hereof,  if  requested  by  the
         Executive and approved by the Board of Directors,  the Executive  shall
         receive the Disability  Benefit  hereunder,  in any case in which it is
         determined by a duly licensed  physician selected by the Bank, that the
         Executive is no longer able,  properly and  satisfactorily,  to perform
         his regular  duties as an Executive,  because of ill health,  accident,
         disability or general  inability due to age. The monthly  benefit shall
         not begin more than  thirty  (30) days  following  the  above-mentioned
         disability  determination.  The amount of the monthly  benefit shall be
         the annuitized value of the Executive's  Accrued Benefit measured as of
         the date of such disability determination. The Accrued Benefit shall be
         annuitized  using the  Interest  Factor and shall be  payable  over the
         Payout Period. In the event the Executive dies while receiving payments
         pursuant  to this  Subsection,  or  after  becoming  eligible  for such
         payments  but before  the actual  commencement  of such  payments,  his
         Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive the Survivor's Benefit for the
         balance of the Payout Period.

         Furthermore,  if (i) Board of Director  approval is obtained,  and (ii)
         the  total  dollar  amount  of  disability  payments  received  by  the
         Executive  under the  provisions  of this  Subsection  is less than the
         total dollar  amount of payments  that would have been received had the
         Survivor's  Benefit been paid in lieu of the Disability  Benefit during
         the Executive's life, the Bank shall pay the Executive's  Beneficiary a
         lump sum payment  for the  difference.  This lump sum payment  shall be
         made within thirty (30) days of the Executive's death.

2.7      Non-Competition During and After Employment.
         (a) In consideration of the agreements of the Bank contained herein and
         of the payments to be made by the Bank pursuant  hereto,  the Executive
         hereby agrees that, so long as he remains employed by the Bank, he will
         devote substantially all of his time, skill, diligence and attention to
         the business of the Bank, and will not actively engage, either directly
         or  indirectly,  in any business or other  activity  which is or may be
         deemed  to be in any  way  competitive  with  or  adverse  to the  best
         interests  of the  business of the Bank.  (b) The  Executive  expressly
         agrees that, as  consideration  for the covenants of the Bank contained
         herein  and as a  condition  to the  performance  by  the  Bank  of its
         obligations  hereunder,  from and after any  voluntary  or  involuntary
         termination of service, other than a termination of service pursuant to
         Subsection 2.4, and continuing  throughout the entire Payout Period, as
         provided herein,  he will not, without the prior written consent of the
         Bank, engage in, become interested,  directly or indirectly,  as a sole
         proprietor,  as  a  partner  in a  partnership,  or  as  a  substantial
         shareholder  in a  corporation,  nor  become  associated  with,  in the
         capacity of an employee,  director,  officer, principal, agent, trustee
         or in any other capacity  whatsoever,  any enterprise  conducted in the
         trading area of the business of the Bank which enterprise is, or may be
         deemed to be,  competitive  with any business carried on by the Bank as
         of the date of the  termination  of the  Executive's  employment or his
         retirement.

         (c) In the event of a termination of the Executive's service related to
         a Change in Control  pursuant to Subsection 2.4,  paragraph (b) of this
         Subsection shall cease to be a condition to the performance by the Bank
         of its obligations under this Agreement.

2.8      Breach.  In the event of any breach by the Executive of the  agreements
         and  covenants  contained  herein,  the Board of  Directors of the Bank
         shall direct that any unpaid  balance of any payments to the  Executive
         under this  Agreement  be  suspended,  and shall  thereupon  notify the
         Executive of such suspensions,  in writing.  Thereupon, if the Board of
         Directors of the Bank shall determine that said breach by the Executive
         has continued for a period of one (1) month  following  notification of
         such  suspension,  all rights of the  Executive  and his  Beneficiaries
         under this Agreement,  including rights to further payments  hereunder,
         shall thereupon terminate.

                                   SECTION III
                             BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

         The  Executive  shall  make  an  initial  designation  of  primary  and
secondary  Beneficiaries  upon  execution of this  Agreement  and shall have the
right to change such  designation,  at any subsequent time, by submitting to the
Administrator in substantially the form attached as Exhibit to this Agreement, a
written  designation  of primary and secondary  Beneficiaries.  Any  Beneficiary
designation made subsequent to execution of this Agreement

                                      -12-

shall become  effective only when receipt  thereof is acknowledged in writing by
the Administrator.

                           EXECUTIVE'S RIGHT TO ASSETS

         The  rights of the  Executive,  any  Beneficiary,  or any other  person
claiming through the Executive under this Agreement, shall be solely those of an
unsecured general creditor of the Bank. The Executive,  the Beneficiary,  or any
other  person  claiming  through  the  Executive,  shall  only have the right to
receive from the Bank those  payments so  specified  under this  Agreement.  The
Executive agrees that he, his Beneficiary,  or any other person claiming through
him  shall  have no  rights or  interests  whatsoever  in any asset of the Bank,
including  any  insurance  policies or  contracts  which the Bank may possess or
obtain to informally fund this Agreement. Any asset used or acquired by the Bank
in connection with the  liabilities it has assumed under this Agreement,  unless
expressly  provided  herein,  shall not be deemed to be held under any trust for
the  benefit  of the  Executive  or his  Beneficiaries,  nor  shall any asset be
considered security for the performance of the obligations of the Bank. Any such
asset shall be and remain, a general,  unpledged,  and unrestricted asset of the
Bank.

                            RESTRICTIONS UPON FUNDING

         The Bank shall have no obligation to set aside,  earmark or entrust any
fund or money  with  which to pay its  obligations  under  this  Agreement.  The
Executive,  his  Beneficiaries  or any successor in interest to him shall be and
remain simply a general unsecured creditor of the Bank in the same manner as any
other creditor having a general claim for matured and unpaid  compensation.  The
Bank  reserves  the absolute  right in its sole  discretion  to either  purchase
assets to meet its  obligations  undertaken by this Agreement or to refrain from
the  same  and to  determine  the  extent,  nature,  and  method  of such  asset
purchases.  Should the Bank  decide to purchase  assets such as life  insurance,
mutual funds,  disability policies or annuities,  the Bank reserves the absolute
right, in its sole discretion, to terminate such assets at any time, in whole or
in part. At no time shall the Executive be deemed to have any lien, right, title
or interest in or to any specific  investment  or to any assets of the Bank.  If
the Bank elects to invest in a life insurance, disability or annuity policy upon
the life of the  Executive,  then the Executive  shall assist the Bank by freely
submitting  to  a  physical   examination   and  by  supplying  such  additional
information necessary to obtain such insurance or annuities.

                     ALIENABILITY AND ASSIGNMENT PROHIBITION

         Neither the Executive nor any  Beneficiary  under this Agreement  shall
have any power or right to transfer, assign, anticipate,  hypothecate, mortgage,
commute,  modify or otherwise  encumber in advance any of the  benefits  payable
hereunder,  nor shall any of said benefits be subject to seizure for the payment
of any debts,  judgments,  alimony or separate maintenance owed by the Executive
or his  Beneficiary,  nor be  transferable  by  operation of law in the event of
bankruptcy,  insolvency  or  otherwise.  In  the  event  the  Executive  or  any
Beneficiary  attempts  assignment,  communication,  hypothecation,  transfer  or
disposal of the benefits hereunder, the Bank's liabilities shall forthwith cease
and terminate.

7.1      Named  Fiduciary  and  Administrator.  The  Bank  shall  be  the  Named
         Fiduciary and Administrator (the "Administrator") of this Agreement. As
         Administrator,  the  Bank  shall  be  responsible  for the  management,
         control and administration of the Agreement as established  herein. The
         Administrator  may delegate to others certain aspects of the management
         and  operational  responsibilities  of  the  Agreement,  including  the
         employment  of advisors and the  delegation  of  ministerial  duties to
         qualified individuals.

7.2      Claims Procedure and Arbitration. In the event that benefits under this
         Agreement are not paid to the Executive (or to his  Beneficiary  in the
         case of the  Executive's  death)  and  such  claimants  feel  they  are
         entitled to receive such benefits, then a written claim must be made to
         the  Administrator  within  sixty (60) days from the date  payments are
         refused.  The Bank and its Board of Directors  shall review the written
         claim  and,  if the claim is  denied,  in whole or in part,  they shall
         provide in writing,  within  ninety (90) days of receipt of such claim,
         their specific reasons for such denial,  reference to the provisions of
         this  Agreement  upon  which the  denial is based,  and any  additional
         material or information necessary to perfect the claim. Such writing by
         the  Bank  and its  Board  of  Directors  shall  further  indicate  the
         additional steps which must be undertaken by claimants if an additional
         review of the claim denial is desired.

         If   claimants   desire  a  second   review,   they  shall  notify  the
         Administrator  in writing  within  sixty  (60) days of the first  claim
         denial.  Claimants may review this Agreement or any documents  relating
         thereto and submit any issues and comments,  in writing,  they may feel
         appropriate.  In its sole  discretion,  the  Administrator  shall  then
         review the second  claim and provide a written  decision  within  sixty
         (60) days of receipt  of such  claim.  This  decision  shall  state the
         specific  reasons  for the  decision  and shall  include  reference  to
         specific provisions of this Agreement upon which the decision is based.

         If  claimants  continue  to  dispute  the  benefit  denial  based  upon
         completed  performance  of this  Agreement or the meaning and effect of
         the terms and conditions thereof, then claimants may submit the dispute
         to a  Board  of  Arbitration  for  final  arbitration.  Said  Board  of
         Arbitration  shall consist of one member selected by the claimant,  one
         member selected by the Bank, and the third member selected by the first
         two members. The Board of Arbitration shall operate under any generally
         recognized  set of  arbitration  rules.  The parties  hereto agree that
         they,  their heirs,  personal  representatives,  successors and assigns
         shall be bound  by the  decision  of such  Board  of  Arbitration  with
         respect to any controversy properly submitted to it for determination.

                                  SECTION VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

8.1      No Effect on Employment  Rights.  Nothing  contained herein will confer
         upon the  Executive the right to be retained in the service of the Bank
         nor limit the right of the Bank to discharge or otherwise deal with the
         Executive without regard to the existence of the Agreement. Pursuant to
         12 C.F.R. ss. 563.39(b),  the following  conditions shall apply to this
         Agreement:

         (1)      The Bank's Board of Directors  may  terminate the Executive at
                  any time, but any termination by the Bank's Board of Directors
                  other than termination for

                                      -17-

<PAGE>



                  Cause shall not  prejudice  the  Executive's  vested  right to
                  compensation or other benefits under the contract. As provided
                  in Section 2.5, the  Executive  shall forfeit his right to all
                  benefits  provided  for in the  Agreement  in the  event he is
                  terminated  for  Cause.  He shall  have no  right  to  receive
                  additional compensation or other benefits for any period after
                  termination for Cause.

         (2)      If the Executive is suspended  and/or  temporarily  prohibited
                  from  participating  in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by a
                  notice served under  Section  8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal
                  Deposit  Insurance Act (12 U.S.C.  1818(e)(3)  and (g)(1)) the
                  Bank's  obligations  under  the  contract  shall be  suspended
                  (except  vested  rights)  as of the  date  of  termination  of
                  service  unless  stayed  by  appropriate  proceedings.  If the
                  charges  in the  notice  are  dismissed,  the  Bank may in its
                  discretion   (i)  pay  the   Executive  all  or  part  of  the
                  compensation  withheld  while its  contract  obligations  were
                  suspended and (ii)  reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its
                  obligations which were suspended.

         (3)      If the Executive is terminated and/or  permanently  prohibited
                  from  participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by an
                  order  issued under  Section  8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal
                  Deposit  Insurance Act (12 U.S.C.  1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)),  all
                  non-vested  obligations  of the Bank under the contract  shall
                  terminate as of the effective date of the order.

         (4)      If the Bank is in default  (as  defined in Section  3(x)(1) of
                  the Federal Deposit Insurance Act), all non-vested obligations
                  under the contract shall terminate as of the date of default.

         (5)      All  non-vested   obligations  under  the  contract  shall  be
                  terminated,  except to the extent determined that continuation
                  of the contract is necessary  for the  continued  operation of
                  the Bank:

                  (i)      by the  Director  [of the Federal  Deposit  Insurance
                           Corporation or the Resolution  Trust  Corporation] or
                           his   designee  at  the  time  the  Federal   Deposit
                           Insurance   Corporation  or  the   Resolution   Trust
                           Corporation  enters  into  an  agreement  to  provide
                           assistance  to or on  behalf  of the Bank  under  the
                           authority  contained  in ss.  13(c)  of  the  Federal
                           Deposit Insurance Act; or

                  payable to the  Executive  shall  commence on the  Executive's
                  Benefit Eligibility Date. The Accrued Benefit,  measured as of
                  the date of termination, shall be increased monthly (using the
                  Interest  Factor)  from  the  date of  termination  until  the
                  Executive's  Benefit Age. The Accrued  Benefit  measured as of
                  the  Executive's  Benefit Age shall be annuitized into monthly
                  installments  using the  Interest  Factor and shall be payable
                  for the Payout  Period.  In the event the Executive dies prior
                  to completion of all such monthly installments, the Bank shall
                  pay to  the  Executive's  Beneficiary  a  continuation  of the
                  monthly installments for the remainder of the Payout Period.

2.4      Termination of Service Related to a Change in Control.

         (a)      If the Executive's  termination of service (as defined in this
                  Subsection)  is related to a Change in Control,  the Executive
                  shall  be  entitled  to  receive  his  Excess   Benefit   upon
                  attainment of his Benefit Age, payment of which shall commence
                  on his Benefit  Eligibility  Date.  In the event the Executive
                  dies at any time after attaining his Benefit Age, but prior to
                  completion of all such payments due and owing  hereunder,  the
                  Bank shall pay to the  Executive's  Beneficiary a continuation
                  of the monthly  installments  for the  remainder of the Payout
                  Period.

         (b)      For  purposes  of this  Subsection,  "termination  of service"
                  shall include the following:

                           If, at any time following said Change in Control, (i)
                           the  employment  of the  Executive  is  involuntarily
                           terminated   by  the   Bank,   or  (ii)   voluntarily
                           terminated  by the  Executive  after:  (A) a material
                           change  in  the  Executive's  function,   duties,  or
                           responsibilities,   which   change  would  cause  the
                           Executive's   position   to  become   one  of  lesser
                           responsibility,   importance,   or  scope   from  the
                           position the Executive held at the time of the Change
                           in  Control,  (B) a  relocation  of  the  Executive's
                           principal  place of  employment  by more than  thirty
                           (30) miles from its  location  prior to the Change in
                           Control,  or (C) a material reduction in the benefits
                           and  perquisites  to the  Executive  from those being
                           provided at the time of the Change in Control.

         (c)      Should the  Executive die after being  terminated  following a
                  Change in  Control,  but prior to  commencement  of the Excess
                  Benefit,  his  Beneficiary  shall be  entitled  to receive the
                  Survivor's  Benefit,  payment of which shall  commence  within
                  thirty (30) days following the Executive's death.

2.5      Termination  for Cause.  If the Executive is terminated for Cause,  all
         benefits  under this  Agreement  shall be forfeited and this  Agreement
         shall become null and void.


                                      -10-

2.6      Disability  Benefit.  If the Executive's service is terminated prior to
         Benefit  Age due to a  disability  which meets the  criteria  set forth
         below,  the Executive may request to receive the Disability  Benefit in
         lieu of the retirement  benefit  described in Section 2.1 (which is not
         available prior to the Executive's Benefit Eligibility Date).

         Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  hereof,  if  requested  by  the
         Executive and approved by the Board of Directors,  the Executive  shall
         receive the Disability  Benefit  hereunder,  in any case in which it is
         determined by a duly licensed  physician selected by the Bank, that the
         Executive is no longer able,  properly and  satisfactorily,  to perform
         his regular  duties as an Executive,  because of ill health,  accident,
         disability or general  inability due to age. The monthly  benefit shall
         not begin more than  thirty  (30) days  following  the  above-mentioned
         disability  determination.  The amount of the monthly  benefit shall be
         the annuitized value of the Executive's  Accrued Benefit measured as of
         the date of such disability determination. The Accrued Benefit shall be
         annuitized  using the  Interest  Factor and shall be  payable  over the
         Payout Period. In the event the Executive dies while receiving payments
         pursuant  to this  Subsection,  or  after  becoming  eligible  for such
         payments  but before  the actual  commencement  of such  payments,  his
         Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive the Survivor's Benefit for the
         balance of the Payout Period.

         Furthermore,  if (i) Board of Director  approval is obtained,  and (ii)
         the  total  dollar  amount  of  disability  payments  received  by  the
         Executive under the provisions of this

                                      -11-

<PAGE>



         Subsection  is less than the total dollar amount of payments that would
         have been received had the Survivor's  Benefit been paid in lieu of the
         Disability  Benefit during the Executive's life, the Bank shall pay the
         Executive's  Beneficiary  a lump sum payment for the  difference.  This
         lump  sum  payment  shall  be  made  within  thirty  (30)  days  of the
         Executive's death.

2.7      Non-Competition During and After Employment.

         (a)      In  consideration  of the  agreements  of the  Bank  contained
                  herein  and of the  payments  to be made by the Bank  pursuant
                  hereto,  the  Executive  hereby  agrees  that,  so  long as he
                  remains employed by the Bank, he will devote substantially all
                  of his time, skill, diligence and attention to the business of
                  the Bank,  and will not actively  engage,  either  directly or
                  indirectly,  in any business or other activity which is or may
                  be deemed to be in any way competitive  with or adverse to the
                  best interests of the business of the Bank.

         (b)      The Executive  expressly agrees that, as consideration for the
                  covenants of the Bank  contained  herein and as a condition to
                  the performance by the Bank of its obligations hereunder, from
                  and after any voluntary or involuntary termination of service,
                  other than a  termination  of service  pursuant to  Subsection
                  2.4, and continuing  throughout  the entire Payout Period,  as
                  provided  herein,  he will  not,  without  the  prior  written
                  consent of the Bank, engage in, become interested, directly or
                  indirectly, as a sole proprietor, as a

                                      -12-

<PAGE>



                  partner in a partnership, or as a substantial shareholder in a
                  corporation, nor become associated with, in the capacity of an
                  employee,  director,  officer, principal, agent, trustee or in
                  any other capacity whatsoever, any enterprise conducted in the
                  trading area of the business of the Bank which  enterprise is,
                  or may be deemed to be,  competitive with any business carried
                  on by the  Bank  as of the  date  of  the  termination  of the
                  Executive's employment or his retirement.

         (c)      In the  event  of a  termination  of the  Executive's  service
                  related to a Change in Control  pursuant  to  Subsection  2.4,
                  paragraph (b) of this Subsection shall cease to be a condition
                  to the performance by the Bank of its  obligations  under this
                  Agreement.

2.8      Breach.  In the event of any breach by the Executive of the  agreements
         and  covenants  contained  herein,  the Board of  Directors of the Bank
         shall direct that any unpaid  balance of any payments to the  Executive
         under this  Agreement  be  suspended,  and shall  thereupon  notify the
         Executive of such suspensions,  in writing.  Thereupon, if the Board of
         Directors of the Bank shall determine that said breach by the Executive
         has continued for a period of one (1) month  following  notification of
         such  suspension,  all rights of the  Executive  and his  Beneficiaries
         under this Agreement,  including rights to further payments  hereunder,
         shall thereupon terminate.

                                   SECTION III
                             BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

         The  Executive  shall  make  an  initial  designation  of  primary  and
secondary  Beneficiaries  upon  execution of this  Agreement  and shall have the
right to change such  designation,  at any subsequent time, by submitting to the
Administrator in substantially the form attached as Exhibit to this Agreement, a
written  designation  of primary and secondary  Beneficiaries.  Any  Beneficiary
designation  made  subsequent  to  execution  of  this  Agreement  shall  become
effective  only  when  receipt   thereof  is  acknowledged  in  writing  by  the
Administrator.

                                   SECTION IV
                           EXECUTIVE'S RIGHT TO ASSETS

         The  rights of the  Executive,  any  Beneficiary,  or any other  person
claiming through the Executive under this Agreement, shall be solely those of an
unsecured general creditor of the Bank. The Executive,  the Beneficiary,  or any
other  person  claiming  through  the  Executive,  shall  only have the right to
receive from the Bank those  payments so  specified  under this  Agreement.  The
Executive agrees that he, his Beneficiary,  or any other person claiming through
him  shall  have no  rights or  interests  whatsoever  in any asset of the Bank,
including  any  insurance  policies or  contracts  which the Bank may possess or
obtain to informally fund this Agreement. Any asset used or acquired by the Bank
in connection with

                                      -14-

<PAGE>



the liabilities it has assumed under this Agreement,  unless expressly  provided
herein,  shall not be deemed to be held  under any trust for the  benefit of the
Executive or his Beneficiaries,  nor shall any asset be considered  security for
the  performance  of the  obligations  of the Bank.  Any such asset shall be and
remain, a general, unpledged, and unrestricted asset of the Bank.

                                    SECTION V
                            RESTRICTIONS UPON FUNDING

         The Bank shall have no obligation to set aside,  earmark or entrust any
fund or money  with  which to pay its  obligations  under  this  Agreement.  The
Executive,  his  Beneficiaries  or any successor in interest to him shall be and
remain simply a general unsecured creditor of the Bank in the same manner as any
other creditor having a general claim for matured and unpaid  compensation.  The
Bank  reserves  the absolute  right in its sole  discretion  to either  purchase
assets to meet its  obligations  undertaken by this Agreement or to refrain from
the  same  and to  determine  the  extent,  nature,  and  method  of such  asset
purchases.  Should the Bank  decide to purchase  assets such as life  insurance,
mutual funds,  disability policies or annuities,  the Bank reserves the absolute
right, in its sole discretion, to terminate such assets at any time, in whole or
in part. At no time shall the Executive be deemed to have any lien, right, title
or interest in or to any specific  investment  or to any assets of the Bank.  If
the Bank elects to invest in a life insurance, disability or annuity policy upon
the life of the  Executive,  then the Executive  shall assist the Bank by freely
submitting  to  a  physical   examination   and  by  supplying  such  additional
information necessary to obtain such insurance or annuities.

                                   SECTION VI
                     ALIENABILITY AND ASSIGNMENT PROHIBITION

         Neither the Executive nor any  Beneficiary  under this Agreement  shall
have any power or right to transfer, assign, anticipate,  hypothecate, mortgage,
commute,  modify or otherwise  encumber in advance any of the  benefits  payable
hereunder,  nor shall any of said benefits be subject to seizure for the payment
of any debts,  judgments,  alimony or separate maintenance owed by the Executive
or his  Beneficiary,  nor be  transferable  by  operation of law in the event of
bankruptcy,  insolvency  or  otherwise.  In  the  event  the  Executive  or  any
Beneficiary  attempts  assignment,  communication,  hypothecation,  transfer  or
disposal of the benefits hereunder, the Bank's liabilities shall forthwith cease
and terminate.

                                   SECTION VII
                                 ACT PROVISIONS

7.1      Named  Fiduciary  and  Administrator.  The  Bank  shall  be  the  Named
         Fiduciary and Administrator (the "Administrator") of this Agreement. As
         Administrator,  the  Bank  shall  be  responsible  for the  management,
         control and administration of the Agreement as established  herein. The
         Administrator may delegate to others certain

                                      -16-

<PAGE>



         aspects  of the  management  and  operational  responsibilities  of the
         Agreement,  including the  employment of advisors and the delegation of
         ministerial duties to qualified individuals.

7.2      Claims Procedure and Arbitration. In the event that benefits under this
         Agreement are not paid to the Executive (or to his  Beneficiary  in the
         case of the  Executive's  death)  and  such  claimants  feel  they  are
         entitled to receive such benefits, then a written claim must be made to
         the  Administrator  within  sixty (60) days from the date  payments are
         refused.  The Bank and its Board of Directors  shall review the written
         claim  and,  if the claim is  denied,  in whole or in part,  they shall
         provide in writing,  within  ninety (90) days of receipt of such claim,
         their specific reasons for such denial,  reference to the provisions of
         this  Agreement  upon  which the  denial is based,  and any  additional
         material or information necessary to perfect the claim. Such writing by
         the  Bank  and its  Board  of  Directors  shall  further  indicate  the
         additional steps which must be undertaken by claimants if an additional
         review of the claim denial is desired.

         If   claimants   desire  a  second   review,   they  shall  notify  the
         Administrator  in writing  within  sixty  (60) days of the first  claim
         denial.  Claimants may review this Agreement or any documents  relating
         thereto and submit any issues and comments,  in writing,  they may feel
         appropriate.  In its sole  discretion,  the  Administrator  shall  then
         review the second  claim and provide a written  decision  within  sixty
         (60) days of receipt of

                                      -17-

<PAGE>



         such claim.  This  decision  shall state the  specific  reasons for the
         decision and shall  include  reference to specific  provisions  of this
         Agreement upon which the decision is based.

         If  claimants  continue  to  dispute  the  benefit  denial  based  upon
         completed  performance  of this  Agreement or the meaning and effect of
         the terms and conditions thereof, then claimants may submit the dispute
         to a  Board  of  Arbitration  for  final  arbitration.  Said  Board  of
         Arbitration  shall consist of one member selected by the claimant,  one
         member selected by the Bank, and the third member selected by the first
         two members. The Board of Arbitration shall operate under any generally
         recognized  set of  arbitration  rules.  The parties  hereto agree that
         they,  their heirs,  personal  representatives,  successors and assigns
         shall be bound  by the  decision  of such  Board  of  Arbitration  with
         respect to any controversy properly submitted to it for determination.

                                  SECTION VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

8.1      No Effect on Employment  Rights.  Nothing  contained herein will confer
         upon the  Executive the right to be retained in the service of the Bank
         nor limit the right of the Bank to discharge or otherwise deal with the
         Executive without regard to the existence of the Agreement. Pursuant to
         12 C.F.R. ss. 563.39(b),  the following  conditions shall apply to this
         Agreement:

         (1)      The Bank's Board of Directors  may  terminate the Executive at
                  any time, but any termination by the Bank's Board of Directors
                  other  than  termination  for Cause  shall not  prejudice  the
                  Executive's  vested right to  compensation  or other  benefits
                  under the contract.  As provided in Section 2.5, the Executive
                  shall  forfeit his right to all  benefits  provided for in the
                  Agreement in the event he is  terminated  for Cause.  He shall
                  have no  right to  receive  additional  compensation  or other
                  benefits for any period after termination for Cause.

         (2)      If the Executive is suspended  and/or  temporarily  prohibited
                  from  participating  in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by a
                  notice served under  Section  8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal
                  Deposit  Insurance Act (12 U.S.C.  1818(e)(3)  and (g)(1)) the
                  Bank's  obligations  under  the  contract  shall be  suspended
                  (except  vested  rights)  as of the  date  of  termination  of
                  service  unless  stayed  by  appropriate  proceedings.  If the
                  charges  in the  notice  are  dismissed,  the  Bank may in its
                  discretion   (i)  pay  the   Executive  all  or  part  of  the
                  compensation  withheld  while its  contract  obligations  were
                  suspended and (ii)  reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its
                  obligations which were suspended.


                                      -19-

         (3)      If the Executive is terminated and/or  permanently  prohibited
                  from  participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by an
                  order  issued under  Section  8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal
                  Deposit  Insurance Act (12 U.S.C.  1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)),  all
                  non-vested  obligations  of the Bank under the contract  shall
                  terminate as of the effective date of the order.

         (4)      If the Bank is in default  (as  defined in Section  3(x)(1) of
                  the Federal Deposit Insurance Act), all non-vested obligations
                  under the contract shall terminate as of the date of default.

         (5)      All  non-vested   obligations  under  the  contract  shall  be
                  terminated,  except to the extent determined that continuation
                  of the contract is necessary  for the  continued  operation of
                  the Bank:

                  (i)      by the  Director  [of the Federal  Deposit  Insurance

                  (ii)     by the  Director  [of the Federal  Deposit  Insurance
                           Corporation or the Resolution  Trust  Corporation] or
                           his  designee,  at  the  time  the  Director  or  his
                           designee  approves  a  supervisory  merger to resolve
                           problems related to operation of the Bank or when the
                           Bank is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe
                           or unsound condition.

                  Any rights of the parties that have already vested, (i.e., the
                  Executive's Accrued Benefit),  however,  shall not be affected
                  by such action.

8.2      State Law. The Agreement is  established  under,  and will be construed
         according to, the laws of the State of Indiana, to the extent such laws
         are  not  preempted  by  the  Act  and  valid   regulations   published
         thereunder.

8.3      Severability. In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement
         or portion thereof,  are held to be inoperative or invalid by any court
         of competent jurisdiction,  then: (1) insofar as is reasonable,  effect
         will be given to the intent  manifested in the provisions  held invalid
         or  inoperative,  and  (2)  the  validity  and  enforceability  of  the
         remaining provisions will not be affected thereby.

8.4      Incapacity  of  Recipient.  In the  event  the  Executive  is  declared
         incompetent  and a conservator or other person legally charged with the
         care of his  person or  Estate is  appointed,  any  benefits  under the
         Agreement to which such Executive is entitled

                                      -21-

<PAGE>



         shall be paid to such  conservator or other person legally charged with
         the care of his person or Estate.

8.5      Unclaimed  Benefit.  The Executive  shall keep the Bank informed of his
         current  address and the current address of his  Beneficiaries.  If the
         location of the  Executive  is not made known to the Bank within  three
         (3) years after the date on which any payment of the Excess Benefit may
         first be made,  payment may be made as though the Executive had died at
         the end of the three (3) year  period.  If,  within one (1)  additional
         year after such three (3) year period has elapsed, or, within three (3)
         years after the actual death of the Executive,  whichever  comes first,
         the Bank is unable to locate any Beneficiary of the Executive, the Bank
         may fully discharge its obligation by payment to the Estate.

8.6      Limitations  on  Liability.   Notwithstanding   any  of  the  preceding
         provisions of the  Agreement,  no  individual  acting as an employee or
         agent of the Bank,  or as a member of the Board of  Directors  shall be
         personally  liable to the  Executive or any other person for any claim,
         loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Agreement.

8.7      Gender.  Whenever in this Agreement  words are used in the masculine or
         neuter  gender,  they shall be read and construed as in the  masculine,
         feminine or neuter gender, whenever they should so apply.

                                      -22-

<PAGE>




8.8      Effect on Other Corporate Benefit Agreements. Nothing contained in this
         Agreement  shall affect the right of the Executive to participate in or
         be covered by any qualified or  nonqualified  pension,  profit sharing,
         group,  bonus or other  supplemental  compensation  or  fringe  benefit
         agreement  constituting  a  part  of  the  Bank's  existing  or  future
         compensation structure.

8.9      Inurement.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
         benefit of the Bank, its successors and assigns, and the Executive, his
         successors, heirs, executors, administrators, and Beneficiaries.

8.10     Tax Withholding.  The Bank may withhold from any benefits payable under
         this  Agreement  all federal,  state,  city, or other taxes as shall be
         required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation then in effect.

8.11     Headings.  Headings and sub-headings in this Agreement are inserted for
         reference and  convenience  only and shall not be deemed a part of this
         Agreement.

DESCRIPTON OF BUSINESS



Marion Capital Holdings, Inc. ("MCHI"), an Indiana corporation, became a unitary
savings and loan holding  company upon the  conversion of First Federal  Savings
Bank of Marion ("First  Federal" and,  together with MCHI, the "Company") from a
federally  chartered mutual savings bank to a federally  chartered stock savings
bank in March,  1993.  The Company  conducts  business  from a single  office in
Marion, Grant County, Indiana, and First Federal has a branch office in Decatur,
Indiana.  First Federal is and  historically  has been among the top real estate
mortgage  lenders  in Grant  County  and is the  largest  independent  financial
institution  headquartered  in Grant County.  First Federal  offers a variety of
lending,  deposit  and other  financial  services  to its retail and  commercial
customers.  MCHI has no other business  activity than being the holding  company
for First Federal. MCHI is the sole shareholder of First Federal.

To our Shareholders:

The year ended June 30, 1996 marked the third full year of operations for Marion
Capital Holdings, Inc. as a unitary savings and loan holding company which began
operations on March 18, 1993 when First Federal Savings Bank of Marion converted
to a federal  stock  savings  bank.  First  Federal  Savings Bank of Marion will
complete its 60th year of financial service to the community in 1996.

Our net income for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $2,481,414, which was a 2.1%
increase  over the 1995 net income of  $2,429,948.  This  represents  the fourth
consecutive year the Company has been able to increase its net income.  Earnings
per share for the year ended June 30,  1996  amounted  to $1.22,  an increase of
9.9% over earnings per share of $1.11  reported in the prior year. In June 1996,
we increased our quarterly  dividend to $.20 per share which was an 11% increase
over the dividend paid in each of the previous  four  quarters.  Marion  Capital
Holdings,  Inc. was able to increase  net income even though the  interest  rate
spread declined  slightly.  The interest rate spread for the year ended June 30,
1996 decreased to 3.01% from 3.20% for the year ended June 30, 1995.

The  Company  showed   improvement  in  many  financial  ratios.  The  ratio  of
nonperforming  assets to total assets at June 30, 1996 was 1.07%, which compares
to 1.13% at June 30,  1995.  Real estate  owned  declined by 11%.  Nonperforming
loans to total  loans was 1.18% at June 30,  1996  compared to 1.27% at June 30,
1995.  Return on assets  for the year ended  June 30,  1996 was 1.41%  which was
unchanged from the previous year.  Return on equity  improved from 5.58% for the
year ended June 30, 1995 to 5.86% for the current year.

Shareholders'  equity  decreased  during the year as the  Company  continued  to
repurchase common stock in the open market. During the year ended June 30, 1996,
100,658 shares were retired at an average cost of $20.53 or approximately 96% of
average  book  value.  Book value per share  increased  to $21.47 per share from
$21.08 per share last year. In July 1996, the Company  repurchased 96,680 shares
at an  average  cost  of  $20.33,  or  approximately  95% of book  value.  These
repurchases  are  intended to enhance the  potential  for growth in earnings per
share and increase the return on equity.

Loan  originations  remained  strong  for the  year  ended  June 30,  1996,  and
repayments  remained stable as interest rates stabilized and refinancing  became
less popular.  This resulted in net loans receivable increasing by $6.8 million,
or 5%, from June 30, 1995. This helped improve the yield on assets as funds were
reallocated from lower yielding  investments to higher yielding  mortgage loans.
The yield on  mortgage  loans  increased  from 8.52% for the year ended June 30,
1995 to 8.78% for the year ended June 30, 1996.

Deposits increased by $5.6 million, or 4.7%, from June 30, 1995, and the cost of
those  funds  increased  as well from 4.66% for the year ended June 30,  1995 to
5.22% for the year ended June 30, 1996.

On March 1, 1996  John M.  Dalton  became  President  and CEO of Marion  Capital
Holdings,  Inc. and First Federal  Savings Bank of Marion upon the retirement of
Robert D. Burchard.

Mr. Dalton began his career at First Federal in 1962,  has been a director since
1974,  and was  Executive  Vice  President of First  Federal from 1983 until his
recent  promotion.  He was also  Executive Vice President and director of Marion
Capital  Holdings,  Inc. from its beginning  until March 1, 1996. He was elected
Vice Chairman of the boards of Marion Capital  Holdings,  Inc. and First Federal
on August 12, 1996.

Mr.  Burchard was  employed at First  Federal  beginning  in 1959,  and became a
director  in 1969 and  President  and CEO from  1983  until his  retirement.  In
addition,  he was President and CEO of Marion Capital Holdings,  Inc. from March
18, 1993 until his  retirement  and had been Vice  Chairman of First Federal and
Marion  Capital  Holdings,  Inc.  He became  Chairman on August 12, 1996 of both
organizations.

<PAGE>

In July 1996, we were all saddened by the death of Merritt B. McVicker, Chairman
of the Board of  Directors  since 1974 and  former  President  of First  Federal
Savings Bank from 1967 to 1983. Mr.  McVicker first joined the bank in 1959, and
was very  instrumental in making First Federal into the area's premier  mortgage
lender.  Mr.  McVicker  was past  Chairman  of the  Indiana  League  of  Savings
Institutions, director of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, Trustee of
the Advertising  Council of the U.S. League, and served on the boards of various
community  organizations.  He will be sadly  missed by his  family,  friends and
business associates. He was a real "Team Player!"

On August  12,  1996,  the boards of Marion  Capital  Holdings,  Inc.  and First
Federal  Savings Bank were expanded from six (6) to seven (7) members  effective
September 1, 1996. At those board  meetings,  Jerry D. McVicker was appointed to
fill the unexpired term of Merritt B. McVicker which expires in 1997.  Steven L.
Banks  was  appointed  to the new  board  position.  He will  be  nominated  for
re-election  at Marion  Capital's  annual  meeting on October  17,  1996,  for a
three-year term expiring in 1999.

Mr.  McVicker,  51 years of age, is currently  Director of Operations for Marion
Community  Schools and has served in various  capacities  throughout  many years
with the school.

Mr. Banks,  46 years of age, was President and CEO of Fidelity  Federal  Savings
Bank of Marion.  On September 1, 1996,  he assumed the duties of Executive  Vice
President of both Marion Capital  Holdings,  Inc. and First Federal Savings Bank
of Marion.

We believe  the  Company  has  enjoyed a good and  profitable  year,  and we are
thankful  for  the  continued  support  and  confidence  of  our  customers  and
shareholders.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The principal business of thrift institutions, including First Federal, has
historically consisted of attracting deposits from the general public and making
loans secured by residential and commercial  real estate.  First Federal and all
other savings  associations are  significantly  affected by prevailing  economic
conditions,  as well as government  policies and regulations  concerning,  among
other things,  monetary and fiscal affairs,  housing and financial institutions.
Deposit flows are  influenced by a number of factors,  including  interest rates
paid on competing  investments,  account maturities and level of personal income
and savings.  In addition,  deposit growth is affected by how customers perceive
the stability of the financial  services  industry amid various  current  events
such as  regulatory  changes,  failures  of  other  financial  institutions  and
financing of the deposit  insurance fund.  Lending  activities are influenced by
the demand for and supply of housing lenders, the availability and cost of funds
and  various  other  items.  Sources  of funds for  lending  activities  include
deposits,  payments on loans, proceeds from sale of loans, borrowings, and funds
provided from operations.  The Company's  earnings are primarily  dependent upon
net  interest  income,  the  difference  between  interest  income and  interest
expense.

     Interest  income is a function  of the  balances  of loans and  investments
outstanding  during a given  period  and the  yield  earned  on such  loans  and
investments.  Interest  expense is a function  of the  amounts of  deposits  and
borrowings  outstanding  during the same period and rates paid on such  deposits
and borrowings.  The Company's earnings are also affected by provisions for loan
and real estate losses,  service  charges,  income from  subsidiary  activities,
operating expenses and income taxes.

Asset/Liability Management

     First Federal, like other savings associations, is subject to interest rate
risk to the degree that its  interest-bearing  liabilities,  primarily  deposits
with short and medium-term maturities, mature or reprice at different rates than
its interest-earning  assets. Although having liabilities that mature or reprice
less  frequently  on average than assets will be  beneficial  in times of rising
interest  rates,  such an  asset/liability  structure  will  result in lower net
income  during  periods of  declining  interest  rates,  unless  offset by other
factors.

     Since the early 1980's, First Federal's asset/liability management strategy
has been directed  toward  reducing its exposure to a rise in interest rates. At
June 30, 1996, First Federal's  cumulative  One-Year Gap, based on total assets,
was a positive  16.81% and has been  positive at the end of each  quarter  since
September  30,  1988.  A positive  interest  rate gap can be  expected to have a
favorable  effect on the Company's  earnings in periods of rising interest rates
because  during such periods  interest  income  earned on assets will  generally
increase more rapidly than the interest expense paid on liabilities. Conversely,
in a falling  interest  rate  environment,  the  interest  earned on assets will
generally  decline more rapidly than the total  expense paid on  liabilities.  A
negative  interest  rate  gap will  have the  opposite  effects.  First  Federal
protects  against  problems  arising in a falling  interest rate  environment by
requiring  interest rate minimums on its  residential and commercial real estate
adjustable-rate  mortgages  ("ARMs")  and against  problems  arising in a rising
interest rate  environment by having in excess of 89% of its mortgage loans with
adjustable rate features. Due to the interest rate minimums, the Company has not
experienced a  significant  decline in net interest  yield in recent  periods of
declining interest rates. First Federal's  management believes that the interest
rate gap measurement does not accurately depict its interest  sensitivity due to
its success in utilizing  interest rate  minimums.  As noted in the table on the
following  page,  $78.7  million,  or 50.2%,  of the Company's  interest-earning
assets reprice or mature in the 12 months ending June 30, 1997, which could have
a  significant  impact on future yields and net interest  margin.  First Federal
includes interest rate minimums on almost all loans  originated,  and management
believes  that these  minimums,  which  establish  floors  below  which the loan
interest  rate  cannot  decline,  will  continue  to reduce  its  interest  rate
vulnerability in a declining  interest rate environment.  For the loans which do
not adjust because of the interest rate minimums,  there is an increased risk of
prepayment.  In periods of rising  interest  rates,  the impact on the Company's
yields and net interest  margin  should be  favorable  because  interest  income
earned on its assets will generally  increase more rapidly than interest paid on
its liabilities.

<PAGE>

     Loan prepayments increased in the year ended June 30, 1996, compared to the
prior fiscal year. Although less than 11% of the Company's  residential mortgage
portfolio  consists of  fixed-rate  loans,  prepayments  could have an impact on
yields and net interest  margins in periods of falling  interest rates.  The net
yield on loans for the year ended June 30,  1996,  was 8.78%,  an increase  from
8.52% for the the year ended June 30, 1995.  While loan yields  increased during
these  periods,  the net interest  margin  decreased to 4.17% for the year ended
June 30, 1996, from 4.28% in the prior fiscal year.  First Federal  believes its
asset/liability  strategy of maintaining  over 89% of the Company's  residential
portfolio  in ARMs and  requiring  interest  rate  minimums  on these loans will
continue to protect net interest margins.

     The Company's mortgage-backed security portfolio is subject to prepayments,
and for those  mortgage-backed  securities  with  variable  interest  rates,  to
changing  yields.  These  prepayments  have  increased  in  recent  years as the
underlying  mortgages have been refinanced at lower interest rates, and interest
rate changes on adjustable-rate  mortgage-backed securities could have an effect
on First  Federal's  asset/liability  management  strategy.  Since the Company's
mortgage-backed  security  portfolio only represents 0.8% of the Company's total
assets  at June  30,  1996,  management  believes  that  such  impact  would  be
insignificant.

     The following table illustrates the projected  maturities and the repricing
of the major  asset and  liability  categories  of First  Federal as of June 30,
1996.  Maturity  and  repricing  dates  have  been  projected  by  applying  the
assumptions  set  forth  below to  contractual  maturity  and  repricing  dates.
Classifications  of such  items in the table  below  are  different  from  those
presented in other schedules and financial statements included herein and do not
reflect non-performing loans.

In preparing the table above it has been assumed, in assessing the interest rate
sensitivity of savings  institutions,  that (i)  adjustable-rate  first mortgage
loans will prepay at the rate of 12% per year;  (ii)  fixed-rate  first mortgage
loans  will  prepay at the rate of 10% per  maturity  classification,  and (iii)
nonmortgage loans and investments will not prepay.

     In addition,  it is assumed that fixed maturity  deposits are not withdrawn
prior to maturity, and that other deposits are withdrawn or repriced as follows:

(1)  Based  on  actual  industry  and  historical  experience,   management  has
     determined that these deposit rates and balances  respond slowly to changes
     in market rates and that  balances  tend to remain with First  Federal even
     when market rates rise above deposit rates.

     In evaluating the Company's  exposure to interest rate  movements,  certain
shortcomings  inherent  in the method of  analysis  presented  in the  foregoing
tables must be considered.  For example, although certain assets and liabilities
may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different
degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain
types of assets and  liabilities  may  fluctuate in advance of changes in market
interest  rates,  while  interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in
market rates.  Additionally,  certain assets,  such as ARMs, have features which
restrict  changes in interest  rates on a short-term  basis and over the life of
the asset. In particular, most of First Federal's ARMs and adjustable-rate loans
have  interest  rate  minimums  of  6.00%  for  residential  loans  and 7.0% for
commercial real estate loans.  Currently,  originations of residential ARMs have
interest rate minimums of 6.00%.  Further,  in the event of a change in interest
rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly
from  those  assumed in  calculating  the table.  Finally,  the  ability of many
borrowers to service  their debt may  decrease in the event of an interest  rate
increase although First Federal does underwrite these mortgages at approximately
4.0% above the origination  rate. The Company  considers all of these factors in
monitoring its exposure to interest rate risk.

Average Balances and Interest

     The following table presents for the periods  indicated the monthly average
balances  of  each  category  of  the  Company's   interest-earning  assets  and
interest-bearing  liabilities,  the interest earned or paid on such amounts, and
the average  yields earned and rates paid.  Such yields and costs are determined
by dividing  income or expense by the average  balance of assets or liabilities,
respectively,  for the periods  presented.  Management  believes that the use of
month-end  average balances instead of daily average balances has not caused any
material difference in the information presented.

Interest Rate Spread

     The following table sets forth the weighted average effective interest rate
earned  by the  Company  on its loan and  investment  portfolios,  the  weighted
average  effective cost of the Company's  deposits,  the interest rate spread of
the Company, and the net yield on weighted average  interest-earning  assets for
the period and as of the date shown.  Average  balances  are based on  month-end
average balances.

(1)    Average balances include non-accrual loans.

(2)    Interest  rate spread is  calculated  by  subtracting  combined  weighted
       average  interest rate cost from combined  weighted average interest rate
       earned for the period  indicated.  Interest  rate spread  figures must be
       considered  in  light  of  the   relationship   between  the  amounts  of
       interest-earning  assets and interest-bearing  liabilities.  Since MCHI's
       interest-earning  assets  exceeded its  interest-bearing  liabilities for
       each of the three  years shown  above,  a positive  interest  rate spread
       resulted in net interest income.

(3)    The net yield on weighted average  interest-earning  assets is calculated
       by dividing  net  interest  income by weighted  average  interest-earning
       assets for the period indicated. No net yield figure is presented at June
       30, 1996,  because the computation of net yield is applicable only over a
       period rather than at a specific date.

     The following table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates
and changes in volume of  interest-related  assets and liabilities have affected
the Company's interest income and expense during the periods indicated. For each
category of interest-earning asset and interest-bearing  liability,  information
is provided  on changes  attributable  to (1)  changes in rate  (changes in rate
multiplied  by old  volume)  and  (2)  changes  in  volume  (changes  in  volume
multiplied  by old rate).  Changes  attributable  to both rate and  volume  that
cannot be segregated  have been  allocated  proportionally  to the change due to
volume and the change due to rate.

Changes in Financial  Position  and Results of  Operations - Year Ended June 30,
1996, Compared to Year Ended June 30, 1995:

   General.  MCHI's  total  assets  were  $177.8  million at June 30,  1996,  an
increase  of $5.1  million  or 2.9% from June 30,  1995.  During  1996,  average
interest-earnings   assets  increased  $4.6  million,  or  2.9%,  while  average
interest-bearing  liabilities  increased $4.7 million, or 3.8%, compared to June
30, 1995.  Cash and cash  equivalents and investment  securities  decreased $2.2
million,  or 9.1%,  primarily as a result of their use in funding increased loan
originations.  Net  loans  increased  $6.8  million,  or  5.0%,  primarily  from
originations  of 1-4 family and  multi-family  real estate loans.  Certain loans
originated  during  the year were sold to other  investors.  All such loan sales
were  consummated  at the time of  origination of the loan, and at June 30, 1996
and 1995, no loans in the portfolio were held for sale.  Deposits increased $5.6
million,  to $126.3 million,  or 4.7%, at June 30, 1996 from the amount reported
last year.

     MCHI's net income for the year  ended June 30,  1996 was $2.5  million,  an
increase of $51,000,  or 2.1% over the results for the year ended June 30, 1995.
Net interest  income  increased  $23,000,  or .3%, from the previous  year,  and
provision  for losses on loans in the amount of $34,200  decreasd  $33,300  from
that recorded in 1995.

     Stock  Repurchases.  During the year ended June 30, 1996, MCHI  repurchased
100,658  shares of common stock in the open market at an average cost of $20.53,
or approximately  96% of average book value.  This repurchase  amounted to 5% of
the  outstanding  stock,  the maximum  amount of stock that could be repurchased
prior to March 18, 1996 under Office of Thrift Supervision  ("OTS")  regulations
then in effect, except in special  circumstances.  This 5% limitation expired on
March 18, 1996. In July, 1996, MCHI repurchased another 96,680 shares, or 5%, at
an average cost of $20.33, or approximately 95% of book value. These open-market
purchases are intended to enhance the book value per share and enhance potential
for growth in earnings per share.

     Cash Dividends.  Since First  Federal's  conversion in March 1993, MCHI has
paid  quarterly  dividends in each  quarter,  amounting to $.125 for each of the
first four quarters,  $.15 per share for each of the second four quarters,  $.18
per share for each of the third  four  quarters,  and $.20 per share in the most
recent quarter ended June 30, 1996.

     Interest  Income.  MCHI's total interest income for the year ended June 30,
1996 was $13.7 million,  an increase of $954,000,  or 7.5%, from interest income
for the year ended June 30, 1995.  This increase  resulted  principally  from an
increase  in the yield on  interest  earning  assets  from 7.96% to 8.32% and an
increase in average interest earning assets of $4.6 million.

     Interest Expense.  Total interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1996,
was $6.9  million,  which was an increase of  $931,000,  or 15.7% from  interest
expense for the year ended June 30, 1995.  This  increase  resulted  principally
from an increase in the cost on interest bearing liabilities from 4.76% to 5.31%
and an increase in average interest earning liabilities of $4.7 million.

     Provision  for Losses on Loans.  The  provision for the year ended June 30,
1996,  was  $34,200,  compared to $67,500 in 1995.  The 1996  chargeoffs  net of
recoveries totaled $38,000, compared to the prior year of $105,000. The ratio of
the  allowance for loan losses to total loans  decreased  from 1.45% at June 30,
1995 to 1.38% at June 30, 1996,  and the ratio of  allowance  for loan losses to
nonperforming  loans increased from 114.87% at June 30, 1995, to 117.07% at June
30, 1996. The 1996 provision was to replenish the allowance for loan losses as a
result of chargeoffs and to maintain  management's  desired reserve  ratios.  In
determining  the provision for loan losses for the years ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, MCHI considered  past loan  experience,  changes in the composition of the
loan portfolio and the current condition and amount of loans outstanding.

     Other Income. MCHI's other income for the year ended June 30, 1996, totaled
$130,000,  compared to $105,000 for 1995, an increase of $25,000, or 23.8%. This
increase was due in part from increased loan service fees of $12,000.

<PAGE>


     Other  Expenses.  MCHI's  other  expenses for the year ended June 30, 1996,
totaled $3.6 million which was unchanged from the previous year. This represents
the third  consecutive  year  where  other  expenses  have  remained  relatively
constant.  There  were  no  significant  changes  in any of  the  other  expense
categories.

     Income Tax  Expense.  Income tax expense for the year ended June 30,  1996,
totaled  $913,000,  a decrease of $3,000 from the expense  recorded in 1995. Tax
expense on earnings was offset by certain  low-income  housing tax credits which
totaled  $423,000  and  $406,000  for the years  ended  June 30,  1996 and 1995.
Additional tax credits are available through the year ended June 30, 1998.

Changes in Financial  Position  and Results of  Operations - Year Ended June 30,
1995, Compared to Year Ended June 30, 1994:

     General.  The Company's  total assets were $172.7 million at June 30, 1995,
an increase of $1.9  million or 1.1% from June 30, 1994.  During  1995,  average
interest-earnings   assets  decreased  $3.6  million,  or  2.2%,  while  average
interest-bearing  liabilities  declined $3.5 million,  or 2.7%, compared to June
30, 1994. Average assets were lower for the year ended June 30, 1995 as a result
of First Federal's decision to reduce short-term public fund deposits throughout
the year. However, total assets increased during the year ended June 30, 1995 as
loan  originations  outpaced loan repayments and funds were borrowed to meet the
demand.  Cash and cash  equivalents  and  investment  securities  decreased $7.1
million, or 23.1%,  primarily as a result of their use in funding increased loan
originations.  Net loans increased $9.2 million  primarily from  originations of
1-4 family and multi-family  real estate loans.  Certain loans originated during
the year were sold to other  investors.  All such loan sales were consummated at
the time of  origination  of the loan,  and at June 30, 1995 and 1994,  no loans
were held for sale in the loan  portfolio.  Net real estate owned was reduced by
$624,000, or 75.2%, as a result of a combination of disposals and chargeoffs.

     The  Company's  net  income  for the year  ended  June 30,  1995,  was $2.4
million,  an increase of $161,000,  or 7.1%, over the results for the year ended
June 30,  1994.  Net  interest  income  increased  $345,000,  or 5.3%,  from the
previous  year,  and  provision  for  losses on loans in the  amount of  $67,500
increased  $2,500  from that  recorded  in 1994.  During the year ended June 30,
1995,  the Company  reduced its real estate  owned loss  reserves  resulting  in
income of $140,000.  These loss reserves were reduced when the  properties  were
sold,  resulting in fewer losses than anticipated.  In the prior year,  $305,000
was charged to provision  for real estate owned losses.  The 1995  chargeoffs of
real estate owned totaled  $171,000,  which was $185,000 less than the allowance
for real estate losses at June 30, 1994.  Chargeoffs net of recoveries  totalled
$152,000,  which  was  $204,000  less  than the  beginning  allowance.  The 1995
chargeoffs included additional  writedowns on a commercial warehouse facility, a
day care center,  and certain smaller chargeoffs from sales of other properties.
These chargeoffs represented recognition of additional losses in the real estate
owned portfolio that were not evident when the properties were first transferred
from loans to real estate owned. Properties are written down to their fair value
at time of  foreclosure  with the loss charged to the allowance for loan losses.
As  circumstances  change and the  property or market  deteriorates,  additional
writedowns  are made by  chargeoffs  to the  allowance for losses on real estate
owned.

     Stock  Repurchases.  During the year ended June 30, 1995, MCHI  repurchased
214,249  shares of common stock in the open market at an average cost of $18.15,
or approximately 88% of average book value. These repurchases  amounted to 5% of
the outstanding stock in each six-month period, the maximum amount of stock that
could be repurchased under Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") regulations then
in  effect.  Current  OTS  regulations  permit a maximum  repurchase  of 5% in a
twelve-month  period,  except in special  circumstances,  during the first three
years after  converting to stock form.  This 5%  limitation  imposed by OTS will
expire in March,  1996. These open-market  purchases are intended to enhance the
book value per share and enhance the potential for growth in earnings per share.

     Cash Dividends.  Since First Federal's  conversion in March, 1993, MCHI has
paid quarterly dividends in each quarter,  amounting to $.125 per share for each
of the first four quarters of  operation,  $.15 per share for each of the second
four quarters of operation, and $.18 per share in the most recent quarter ending
June 30, 1995.


<PAGE>

Interest Income. The Company's total interest income for the year ended June 30,
1995 was $12.8 million,  an increase of $395,000,  or 3.2%, from interest income
for the year ended June 30, 1994.  This increase  resulted  principally  from an
increase  in the yield on  interest  earning  assets  from 7.55% to 7.96%  while
interest earning assets decreased by $3.6 million.

     Interest Expense.  Total interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1995,
was $5.9  million,  which  was  unchanged  from the year  ended  June 30,  1994.
Interest  expense  was  unchanged  as the  average  balance of  interest-bearing
liabilities decreased by $3.5 million, while the average cost of funds increased
from 4.59% to 4.76%.

     Provision  for Losses on Loans.  The  provision for the year ended June 30,
1995, was $67,500,  compared to $65,000 in 1994.  During the year ended June 30,
1995, the Company  acquired title by foreclosure to a nursing home property that
had been included in nonperforming loans. The foreclosure and subsequent sale of
this property resulted in First Federal's nonperforming loans being reduced from
$4.6 million at June 30,  1994,  to $1.8 million at June 30, 1995, a decrease of
$2.8  million,  or 62.2%.  The ratio of the  allowance  for loan losses to total
loans  decreased from 1.59% at June 30, 1994, to 1.45% at June 30, 1995, and the
ratio of allowance for loan losses to  nonperforming  loans increased from 44.2%
at June 30,  1994,  to  114.9%  at June 30,  1995.  The  1995  provision  was to
replenish  the  allowance  for loan  losses  as a result  of  chargeoffs  and to
maintain  management's  desired reserve ratios. In determining the provision for
loan losses for the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994,  the Company  considered
past loan loss experience,  changes in the composition of the loan portfolio and
the current condition and amount of loans outstanding.

     Other Income.  The Company's other income for the year ended June 30, 1995,
totaled  $105,000,  compared to  $134,000  for 1994,  a decrease of $29,000,  or
21.6%.  This decrease was caused by the Company  receiving less  commissions for
sales of annuity and other mutual fund products by First Federal's  wholly-owned
subsidiary,  First Marion  Service  Corporation.  Sales of these  products  have
declined  significantly  from the prior  year,  resulting  in fewer  commissions
earned.

     Other  Expenses.  The Company's  other expenses for the year ended June 30,
1995,  totaled $3.6 million which was unchanged from the previous  year.  Normal
operating cost increases in most categories were offset by a $472,000 decline in
real  estate  operation  expense for the year ended June 30, 1995 as compared to
the prior  year as a result  of the  Company's  liquidating  real  estate  owned
properties  and  substantially  reducing  the  expense  incurred  in holding and
maintaining  such  properties.  Increases  in other  categories  occurred in the
normal course of business.

     Income Tax  Expense.  Income tax  expense  for the year ended June 30, 1995
totaled  $916,000,  an increase of $201,000  from the expense  recorded in 1994.
This  increase  was due to higher  pre-tax  earnings  in 1995.  Tax  expense  on
earnings  was offset by certain  low-income  housing tax credits  which  totaled
$406,000  and  $426,000  for the years ended June 30,  1995,  and June 30, 1994,
respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's primary source of funds is its deposits.  To a lesser extent,
the Company has also relied upon loan payments and payoffs and Federal Home Loan
Bank  ("FHLB")  advances  as sources of funds.  Scheduled  loan  payments  are a
relatively  stable  source of funds,  but loan  payoffs  and  deposit  flows can
fluctuate  significantly,  being influenced by interest rates,  general economic
conditions and competition. First Federal attempts to price its deposits to meet
its  asset/liability   management   objectives   consistent  with  local  market
conditions.  First Federal's access to FHLB advances is limited to approximately
62% of First Federal's  available  collateral.  At June 30, 1996, such available
collateral totaled $89.5 million.  Based on existing FHLB lending policies,  the
Company could have obtained approximately $49.7 million in additional advances.

     First Federal's deposits have remained relatively stable, averaging between
$126 and $121  million,  for the three years in the period  ended June 30, 1996.
The percentage of IRA deposits to total deposits has increased from 21.4% ($26.1
million) at June 30, 1993, to 23.1% ($29.1 million) at June 30, 1996. During the
same period,  deposits in withdrawable accounts have decreased from 34.6% ($42.2
million) of total  deposits at June 30, 1993,  to 26.2% ($33.1  million) at June
30,  1996.  This  change in  deposit  composition,  attributable  to the  higher
interest  rates  currently  paid  on  longer  term  certificates,  has not had a
significant  effect on First  Federal's  liquidity.  The  impact on  results  of
operations  from this  change in deposit  composition  has been a  reduction  in
interest

<PAGE>

expense  on  deposits  due to a decrease  in the  average  cost of funds.  It is
estimated  that  yields and net  interest  margin  would  increase in periods of
rising  interest  rates  since  short-term  assets  reprice  more  rapidly  than
short-term  liabilities.  In periods of falling interest rates, little change in
yields or net interest  margin is expected since First Federal has interest rate
minimums on a significant portion of its interest-earning assets.

     Federal  regulations have  historically  required First Federal to maintain
minimum levels of liquid assets. The required percentage has varied from time to
time based upon economic  conditions  and savings  flows.  At June 30, 1996, the
requirement was 5.0% subject to reduction for aggregate net withdrawals provided
such ratio is not reduced  below 4.0%.  Liquid assets for purposes of this ratio
include  cash,  cash  equivalents  consisting  of  short-term  interest  earning
deposits,  certain other time deposits,  and other obligations  generally having
remaining  maturities of less than five years.  First  Federal has  historically
maintained its liquidity  ratio at a level in excess of that  required.  At June
30, 1996,  First Federal's  liquidity ratio was12.3% and has averaged 19.9% over
the past three years.

     Liquidity  management  is  both a daily  and  long-term  responsibility  of
management.   First  Federal  adjusts  liquid  assets  based  upon  management's
assessment  of (i)  expected  loan  demand,  (ii)  projected  loan sales,  (iii)
expected deposit flows, (iv) yields available on interest-bearing  deposits, and
(v) the objectives of its asset/liability  management program.  Excess liquidity
is invested  generally in federal funds and mutual funds investing in government
obligations and adjustable-rate or short-term  mortgage-related  securities.  If
First Federal requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally,  it
has additional  borrowing  capacity with the FHLB of Indianapolis and collateral
eligible for repurchase agreements.

     Cash  flows for the  Company  are of three  major  types.  Cash  flows from
operating  activities  consist  primarily  of  net  income  generated  by  cash.
Investing  activities  generate  cash flows  through the  origination,  sale and
principal   collections  on  loans  as  well  as  the  purchases  and  sales  of
investments.  Cash flows from financing  activities  include  savings  deposits,
withdrawals  and  maturities  and changes in  borrowings.  The  following  table
summarizes  cash flows for each of the three years in the period  ended June 30,
1996:

Investing  cash  flows for the three  years  ended June 30,  1996 have  resulted
primarily  from  investment and loan  activities.  The Company's cash flows from
investments resulted primarily from the purchases and maturities of term federal
funds and securities.  Loan sales during the periods are predominantly  from the
origination  of  commercial  real estate  loans where the  principal  balance in
excess of the Company's  retained  amount is sold to a  participating  financial
institution.  These  investors are obtained prior to the origination of the loan
and the sale of  participating  interests does not result in any gain or loss to
the Company.

     The Company considers its liquidity and capital resources to be adequate to
meet its foreseeable short and long-term needs.  First Federal  anticipates that
it will have sufficient  funds available to meet current loan commitments and to
fund or  refinance,  on a timely  basis,  its  other  material  commitments  and
long-term  liabilities.   At  June  30,  1996,  First  Federal  had  outstanding
commitments  to  originate  loans  of  $4.6  million.  Certificates  of  deposit
scheduled  to  mature  in one  year or less at June  30,  1996,  totalled  $33.6
million.  Based upon historical  deposit flow data, First Federal's  competitive
pricing in its market and management's  experience,  management  believes that a
significant portion of such deposits will remain with First Federal. At June 30,
1996,  the Company had $3.0 million of FHLB advances which mature in one year or
less.

     First  Federal  has entered  into  agreements  with  certain  officers  and
directors  which provide that,  upon their death,  their  beneficiaries  will be
entitled to receive certain benefits.  These benefits are to be funded primarily
by the proceeds of insurance policies owned by First Federal on the lives of the
officers and directors.  If the insurance companies issuing the policies are not
able to perform  under the  contracts  at the dates of death of the  officers or
directors,  there would be an adverse effect on the Company's operating results,
financial   condition  and  liquidity.   Under   currently   effective   capital
regulations,  savings  associations  currently  meet  a  1.5%  tangible  capital
requirement,  a 3.0% leverage  ratio (or core capital)  requirement  and a total
risk-based  capital to  risk-weighted  assets  ratio of 8.0%.  At June 30, 1996,
First Federal's  tangible  capital ratio was 20.7%, its leverage ratio was 20.7%
and its risk-based capital to risk-weighted  assets ratio was 32.7%.  Therefore,
First Federal's capital  significantly  exceeds all of the capital  requirements
currently in effect.

Impact of Inflation

     The audited  consolidated  financial  statements presented herein have been
prepared in accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  These
principles  require the measurement of financial  position and operating results
in terms of  historical  dollars,  without  considering  changes in the relative
purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.

     The primary assets and  liabilities of savings  institutions  such as First
Federal  are  monetary  in  nature.  As a  result,  interest  rates  have a more
significant  impact on First Federal's  performance  than the effects of general
levels of inflation.  Interest rates,  however,  do not necessarily  move in the
same  direction or with the same  magnitude as the price of goods and  services,
since such  prices are  affected  by  inflation.  In a period of rapidly  rising
interest rates, the liquidity and maturity  structures of First Federal's assets
and  liabilities  are  critical to the  maintenance  of  acceptable  performance
levels.

     The  principal  effect of  inflation,  as distinct  from levels of interest
rates,  on  earnings  is in the area of other  expense.  Such  expense  items as
employee compensation,  employee benefits, and occupancy and equipment costs may
be  subject to  increases  as a result of  inflation.  An  additional  effect of
inflation  is the  possible  increase  in the  dollar  value  of the  collateral
securing loans made by First Federal.

New Accounting Pronouncements Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights

     During 1995, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No.  122,  entitled  Accounting  for  Mortgage  Servicing  Rights.  SFAS No. 122
pertains to mortgage banking enterprises and financial institutions that conduct
operations  that  are  substantially  similar  to the  primary  operations  of a
mortgage banking enterprise. The Statement eliminates the accounting distinction
between  mortgage  servicing  rights that are acquired  through loan origination
activities  and  those  acquired  through  purchase  transactions.   Under  this
Statement,  if a mortgage  banking  enterprise  sells or  securitizes  loans and
retains the mortgage  servicing  rights,  the enterprise must allocate the total
cost of the  mortgage  loans to the  mortgage  servicing  rights  and the  loans
(without the rights) based on their relative fair values if it is practicable to
estimate those fair values. If it is not practicable,  the entire cost should be
allocated to the mortgage  loans and no cost should be allocated to the mortgage
servicing rights. An entity would measure  impairment of mortgage service rights
and loans based on the excess of the carrying  amount of the mortgage  servicing
rights portfolio over the fair value of that portfolio.

     The  Statement is to be applied  prospectively  in fiscal  years  beginning
after December 15, 1995, to transactions  in which an entity  acquires  mortgage
servicing  rights and to  impairment  evaluations  of all  capitalized  mortgage
servicing rights. Retroactive application is prohibited.

   During  1996,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 125,  Accounting  for  Transfers  and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement
is effective for the transactions entered into after January 1, 1997 and at that
date will supersede SFAS No. 122. Early adoption is not permitted.

     Accounting for Stock-based Compensation

     The FASB has issued SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation.

     This  Statement  establishes  a fair value based method of  accounting  for
stock-based  compensation  plans. The FASB encourages all entities to adopt this
method for accounting for all arrangements  under which employees receive shares
of stock or other equity  instruments  of the employer,  or the employer  incurs
liabilities to employees in amounts based on the price of its stock.

<PAGE>

     Due to the extremely  controversial  nature of this project,  the Statement
permits a company  to  continue  the  accounting  for  stock-based  compensation
prescribed in Accounting  Principles Board Opinion No. 25,  Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees.  If a company elects that option,  proforma  disclosures of
net income (and EPS, if  presented)  are  required  in the  footnotes  as if the
provisions of this Statement had been used to measure stock-based compensation.

   The  disclosure  requirements  of Opinion No. 25 have been  superseded by the
disclosure requirements of this Statement.

     Once an entity adopts the fair value based method for  accounting for these
transactions, that election cannot be reversed.

     Equity instruments granted or otherwise transferred directly to an employee
by a principal stockholder are stock-based employee compensation to be accounted
for in accordance with either Opinion 25 or this Statement,  unless the transfer
clearly is for a purpose other than compensation.

     The  accounting  requirements  of this  Statement  and  related  disclosure
requirements  are  effective for  transactions  entered into by the Bank for the
fiscal year ending June 30,  1997.  Proforma  disclosures  required for entities
that elect to  continue  to  measure  compensation  cost  using  Opinion 25 must
include  the  effects of all awards  granted  in fiscal  years that begin  after
December 15, 1994.

     In general,  during the initial  phase-in  period,  the effects of applying
this  Statement are not likely to be  representative  of the effects on reported
net  income  for  future  years  because  options  vest over  several  years and
additional  awards generally are made each year. If that situation  exists,  the
Company must include a statement to that effect.

                        Consolidated Financial Statements
                             June 30, 1996 and 1995

                          Independent Auditor's Report



Board of Directors
Marion Capital Holdings, Inc.
Marion, Indiana


We have audited the  consolidated  statement  of  financial  condition of Marion
Capital Holdings, Inc. and subsidiary corporations as of June 30, 1996 and 1995,
and the related  consolidated  statements  of income,  changes in  shareholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the three  years in the period  ended June 30,
1996. These  consolidated  financial  statements are the  responsibility  of the
Company's  management.  Our  responsibility  is to  express  an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

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.

In our opinion,  the consolidated  financial  statements described above present
fairly, in all material respects,  the consolidated financial position of Marion
Capital Holdings, Inc. and subsidiary corporations as of June 30, 1996 and 1995,
and the results of their  operations  and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended June 30, 1996, in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles.

As described in the notes to the financial  statements,  the Company changed its
method of accounting for investments in securities in 1995.

                 MARION CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                       (Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands)

The  accounting  and  reporting  policies  of  Marion  Capital  Holdings,   Inc.
("Company")  and its wholly  owned  subsidiary,  First  Federal  Savings Bank of
Marion  ("Bank") and the Bank's wholly owned  subsidiary,  First Marion  Service
Corporation  ("FMSC"),  conform to generally accepted accounting  principles and
reporting practices followed by the thrift industry. The more significant of the
policies are described below.

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The  Company  is a  thrift  holding  company  whose  principal  activity  is the
ownership and  management of the Bank.  The Bank operates under a federal thrift
charter and provides full banking services. As a federally-chartered thrift, the
Bank is  subject  to  regulation  by the  Office of Thrift  Supervision  and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The Bank generates  residential  and commercial  mortgage and consumer loans and
receives  deposits from  customers  located  primarily in central  Indiana.  The
Bank's loans are generally  secured by specific  items of  collateral  including
real property and consumer  assets.  FMSC is engaged in the selling of financial
services.

Consolidation--The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company,  the Bank and the Bank's  subsidiary after  elimination of all material
intercompany transactions and accounts.

Investment  Securities--The  Company adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 115,  Accounting  for Certain  Investments  in Debt and
Equity  Securities,   on  July  1,  1994,  and  investment  securities  with  an
approximate    carrying    value   of   $4,985,000    were    reclassified    as
available-for-sale.  This  reclassification  resulted  in a  decrease  in  total
shareholders' equity, net of taxes, of $58,000.

Debt  securities  are  classified as  held-to-maturity  when the Company has the
positive  intent and  ability to hold the  securities  to  maturity.  Securities
held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost.

Debt   securities   not  classified  as   held-to-maturity   are  classified  as
available-for-sale. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value with
unrealized  gains and losses reported  separately,  net of tax, in shareholders'
equity.

Amortization  of premiums  and  accretion of  discounts  are recorded  using the
interest  method as interest income from  securities.  Realized gains and losses
are  recorded  as net  security  gains  (losses).  Gains and  losses on sales of
securities are determined on the specific-identification method.

Prior to the  adoption of SFAS No. 115,  investment  securities  were carried at
cost,  adjusted for amortization of premiums and discounts,  and securities held
for sale and marketable equity securities were carried at the lower of aggregate
cost or  market.  Realized  gains and  losses on sales  were  included  in other
income.  Unrealized  losses on  securities  held for sale were included in other
income.  Unrealized  losses on  marketable  equity  securities  were  charged to
shareholders' equity. Gains and losses on the sale of securities were determined
on the specific-identification method.

Loans are  carried  at the  principal  amount  outstanding.  Interest  income is
accrued on the  principal  balances of loans.  Loans are placed in a  nonaccrual
status  when the  collection  of  interest  becomes  doubtful.  Interest  income
previously  accrued but not deemed  collectible is reversed and charged  against
current  income.  Interest  on these  loans is then  recognized  as income  when
collected.  Loans are considered impaired when it becomes probable that the bank
subsidiary  will  be  unable  to  collect  all  amounts  due  according  to  the
contractual  terms of the loan  agreement.  Interest  income  on these  loans is
recognized  as  described  above  depending  on the accrual  status of the loan.
Certain  loan fees and direct  costs are being  deferred and the net amounts are
amortized  as an  adjustment  of yield on the loans.  When a loan is paid off or
sold, any unamortized loan origination fee balance is credited to income.

Foreclosed  real  estate  arises  from  loan  foreclosure  or  deed  in  lieu of
foreclosure  and is carried  at the lower of cost or fair  value less  estimated
selling costs.  Real estate has not been acquired for development or sale. Costs
relating to development  and  improvement of property are  capitalized,  whereas
costs  relating to the holding of  property,  net of rental and other income are
expensed.  Realized  gains and losses are recorded upon the sale of real estate,
with gains  deferred  and  recognized  on the  installment  method for sales not
qualifying for the full accrual method.

Allowances  for loan and real estate losses are  maintained to absorb  potential
loan  and real  estate  losses  based  on  management's  continuing  review  and
evaluation  of the loan and real estate  portfolios  and its  judgment as to the
impact of economic  conditions on the  portfolios.  The evaluation by management
includes  consideration of past loss  experience,  changes in the composition of
the  portfolios,  the current  condition and amount of loans and foreclosed real
estate outstanding,  and the probability of collecting all amounts due. Impaired
loans are measured by the present  value of expected  future cash flows,  or the
fair value of the collateral of the loan, if collateral dependent.

The  determination  of the  adequacy  of the  allowance  for loan losses and the
valuation of real estate is based on estimates that are particularly susceptible
to  significant  changes in the  economic  environment  and  market  conditions.
Management  believes that as of June 30, 1996, the allowance for loan losses and
carrying  value of  foreclosed  real estate are  adequate  based on  information
currently  available.  A worsening or  protracted  economic  decline in the area
within which the Bank  operates  would  increase the  likelihood  of  additional
losses due to credit and market risks and could  create the need for  additional
loss reserves.

Premises  and  equipment  are carried at cost net of  accumulated  depreciation.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based principally on the
estimated  useful lives of the assets.  Maintenance  and repairs are expensed as
incurred  while major  additions and  improvements  are  capitalized.  Gains and
losses on dispositions are included in current operations.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock is a required  investment for institutions that are
members of the Federal Home Loan Bank system.  The  required  investment  in the
common stock is based on a predetermined formula.

Pension  plan costs are based on actuarial  computations  and charged to current
operations.  The funding policy is to pay at least the minimum amounts  required
by ERISA.

Income tax in the consolidated  statement of income includes deferred income tax
provisions or benefits for all significant  temporary differences in recognizing
income and expenses for financial  reporting  and income tax purposes.  Business
tax credits are  deducted  from  federal  income tax in the year the credits are
used to reduce income taxes payable.  The Company files consolidated  income tax
returns with its subsidiaries.

Primary earnings per share for 1996 and 1995 are computed by dividing net income
by the  weighted  average  number of common and  equivalent  shares  outstanding
during the period.  For 1996 and 1995,  fully diluted earnings per share are the
same as primary  earnings per share.  For 1994,  the  computation of primary and
fully diluted earnings per share reflected no dilution.

Reclassifications of certain amounts in the 1995 and 1994 consolidated financial
statements have been made to conform to the 1996 presentation.

Restriction on Cash

The Bank is required to maintain  reserve  funds in cash and/or on deposit  with
the Federal Reserve Bank. The reserve required at June 30, 1996, was $200,000.

considered collectible and accounted for on the accrual basis.

On July 1, 1995, the Company  adopted SFAS Nos. 114 and No. 118,  Accounting for
Creditors for  Impairment of a Loan and  Accounting for Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan--Income Recognition and Disclosures. The adoption of SFAS Nos. 114 and
118 did not have a  material  impact  on the  Company's  financial  position  or
results of operations. No loans were considered impaired at June 30, 1996.

Mortgage  loans  serviced  for  others  are  not  included  in the  accompanying

</TABLE>

No valuation allowance was considered necessary at June 30, 1996 and 1995.

At June  30,  1996,  the  Company  had an  unused  business  income  tax  credit
carryforward of $309,000 expiring in 2011.

Retained earnings include approximately  $8,300,000 for which no deferred income
tax  liability  has been  recognized.  This amount  represents  an allocation of
income  to bad debt  deductions  as of June  30,  1988  for tax  purposes  only.
Reduction of amounts so allocated for purposes other than tax bad debt losses or
adjustments  arising from carryback of net operating  losses would create income
for tax  purposes  only,  which  income  would be  subject  to the  then-current
corporate income tax rate. At June 30, 1996, the unrecorded  deferred income tax
liability on the above amount was approximately $3,300,000.

o    Restriction on Dividends

The  Company is not  subject to any  regulatory  restrictions  on the payment of
dividends  to  its  shareholders.  The  Office  of  Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS")
regulations  provide  that a savings  association  which meets  fully  phased-in
capital  requirements (those in effect on December 31, 1994) and is subject only
to "normal supervision" may pay out, as a dividend, 100 percent of net income to
date over the calendar  year and 50 percent of surplus  capital  existing at the
beginning of the calendar year without  supervisory  approval,  but with 30 days
prior notice to the OTS. Any additional  amount of capital  distributions  would
require prior regulatory approval.

At the time of the Bank's  conversion  to a stock  savings  bank, a  liquidation
account was  established in an amount equal to the Bank's net worth as reflected
in the latest  statement  of  condition  used in its final  conversion  offering
circular.  The  liquidation  account is  maintained  for the benefit of eligible
deposit  account  holders who maintain  their deposit  account in the Bank after
conversion.  In the event of a complete  liquidation  (and only in such  event),
each eligible  deposit  account holder will be entitled to receive a liquidation
distribution  from the  liquidation  account in the  amount of the then  current
adjusted   subaccount  balance  for  deposit  accounts  then  held,  before  any
liquidation distribution may be made to stockholders.  Except for the repurchase
of stock and payment of dividends, the existence of the liquidation account will
not restrict the use or  application  of net worth.  The initial  balance of the
liquidation account was $24,100,000.

At June 30, 1996, total  shareholder's  equity of the Bank was  $35,519,000,  of
which a minimum of $11,419,000 was available for the payment of dividends.

Stock Transactions

The Company's Board of Directors has approved  periodically the repurchase of up
to 5 percent of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock. Such purchases
were made  subject to market  conditions  in open market or block  transactions.
During the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company had repurchased
100,658, 214,249 and 235,695 of its outstanding shares.

Regulatory Capital

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital  requirements  administered by
the federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital  requirements can
initiate  actions by the regulatory  agencies that, if undertaken,  could have a
material  effect on the Bank's  financial  statements.  Under  capital  adequacy
guidelines and the regulatory  framework for prompt corrective  action, the Bank
must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative  measures of the
Bank's assets,  liabilities,  and certain  off-balance-sheet items as calculated
under  regulatory   accounting   practices.   The  Bank's  capital  amounts  and
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
components, risk weightings, and other factors.

At June  30,  1996,  the  Bank  believes  that it  meets  all  capital  adequacy
requirements  to which it is subject and the most recent  notification  from the
regulatory agency  categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action.

The Bank's actual and required capital amounts and ratios are as follows:

o    Benefit Plans

The Bank provides pension benefits for substantially all of the Bank's employees
and is a  participant  in a pension  fund  known as the  Financial  Institutions
Retirement Fund ("FIRF"). This plan is a multi-employer plan; separate actuarial
valuations  are  not  made  with  respect  to  each  participating  employer.  A
supplemental  plan  provides  for  additional  benefits  for certain  employees.
Pension expense (credit) was $211,123,  $108,417,  and $(464) for 1996, 1995 and
1994.

The  Bank  contributes  up  to  3  percent  of  employees'  salaries  for  those
participating  in a  nonqualified  thrift  plan.  The  Bank's  contribution  was
$23,300, $20,600, and $18,900 for 1996, 1995 and 1994.

The Bank has purchased life insurance on certain  officers and directors,  which
insurance had an approximate cash value of $5,588,000 and $5,471,000 at June 30,
1996 and 1995. The Bank has approved  arrangements  that provide  retirement and
death benefits to those officers and directors  covered by the keyman  policies.
The benefits to be paid will be funded  primarily by the keyman policies and are
being  accrued  over the period of active  service  to  eligibility  dates.  The
accrual of benefits totalled $277,000, $447,000, and $248,000 for 1996, 1995 and
1994.

Certain insurance companies which have issued policies described above have been
placed  in  conservatorship  by  the  insurance  commissioner  of the  state  of
California (the  "Commissioner").  During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Bank
reduced the cash value on such  policies  to  estimated  values  provided by the
Commissioner.

The Company has a stock option plan in which 155,089 common shares were reserved
at June 30,  1996 for  issuance  under  the plan.  The  incentive  stock  option
exercise  price will not be less than the fair market  value of the common stock
(or 85  percent  of the fair  market  value of common  stock  for  non-qualified
options) on the date of the grant of the  option.  The date on which the options
are first exercisable is determined by the Board of Directors,  and the terms of
the stock  options  will not exceed ten years from the date of grant.  In March,
1993, the Company granted incentive and non-qualified  stock options for 132,824
and 60,377 shares.  During the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, options
totaling  65,179 (with 17,196  shares  tendered as partial  payment),  6,369 and
14,863 were exercised.  48,299 shares were available for grant at June 30, 1996.
The  weighted  option  price  per  share  for the  1996,  1995 and 1994  options
exercised and at June 30, 1996, was $10.

The Bank's Board of Directors has  established  Recognition  and Retention Plans
and Trusts ("RRP"). The Bank contributed $1,349,340 to the RRPs for the purchase
of 96,600 shares of Company common stock, and in March,  1993,  awards of grants
for these shares were issued to various directors, officers and employees of the
Bank.  These awards  generally  are to vest and be earned by the  recipient at a
rate of 20 percent per year,  commencing  March,  1994. The unearned  portion of
these stock awards is presented as a reduction of shareholders' equity.

SFAS No. 123,  Stock-Based  Compensation,  is effective  for the Company for the
year ended June 30, 1997.  This statement  establishes a fair value based method
of  accounting  for  stock-based  compensation  plans.  The  Company has not yet
determined  the  impact of  adopting  SFAS No.  123 on net  income or  financial
position in the year of adoption.


o    Postretirement Plan

The Bank  sponsors  a  defined  benefit  postretirement  plan that  covers  both
salaried and nonsalaried employees. The plan provides postretirement health care
coverage to eligible  retirees.  An eligible  retiree is an employee who retires
from the  Bank on or after  attaining  age 65 and who has  rendered  at least 15
years of service.

At June 30, 1996 and 1995,  there were no plan assets.  The assumed  health care
cost  trend  rate  used in  measuring  the  accumulated  postretirement  benefit
obligation was 12 percent in 1996,  gradually declining to 6 percent in the year
2011. The weighted  average  discount rate used in determining  the  accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 7.75 percent.

If the health care cost trend rate assumptions were increased by 1 percent,  the
accumulated  postretirement  benefit  obligation  as of June 30, 1996 would have
increased  by 14  percent.  The effect of this  change on the sum of the service
cost and interest would be an increase of 17 percent.

o    Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

In  the  normal  course  of  business  there  are  outstanding  commitments  and
contingent  liabilities,  such as commitments  to extend  credit,  which are not
included  in the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements.  The Bank's
exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the
financial  instruments  for  commitments  to extend credit is represented by the
contractual  or  notional  amount of those  instruments.  The Bank uses the same
credit policies in making such  commitments as it does for instruments  that are
included in the consolidated statement of financial condition.

Financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk as of June 30
were as follows:

                                                         1996           1995
                                                       -------        -------

   Mortgage loan commitments at variable rates         $3,211         $3,894
   Consumer and commercial loan commitments             1,365            936
   Standby letters of credit                            3,239          1,518

Commitments  to extend  credit are  agreements  to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.  Commitments
generally  have fixed  expiration  dates or other  termination  clauses  and may
require  payment of a fee. Since many of the  commitments are expected to expire
without  being  drawn  upon,  the total  commitment  amounts do not  necessarily
represent future cash  requirements.  The Bank evaluates each customer's  credit
worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed
necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's  credit
evaluation.  Collateral held varies,  but may include  residential  real estate,
income-producing commercial properties, or other assets of the borrower.

Standby  letters of credit  are  conditional  commitments  issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of the customer to a third party.

A significant  portion of the Bank's loan portfolio  consists of commercial real
estate loans,  including loans secured by nursing homes.  These  commercial real
estate loans,  totaling  $36,170,000  and $35,937,000 at June 30, 1996 and 1995,
have a  significantly  higher  degree of credit risk than  residential  mortgage
loans.  Loan  payments  on the  nursing  home loans are often  dependent  on the
operation of the  collateral,  and risks  inherent in the nursing home  industry
include  licensure and certification  laws and changes  affecting  payments from
third party payors.

The Company and subsidiaries are also subject to claims and lawsuits which arise
primarily in the ordinary  course of business.  Based on  information  presently
available,  it is the opinion of  management  that the  disposition  or ultimate
determination  of such  possible  claims or  lawsuits  will not have a  material
adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.

The  deposits  of the Bank are  presently  insured  by the  Savings  Association
Insurance  Fund  (the  "SAIF").  A  recapitalization  plan  for the  SAIF  under
consideration by Congress provides for a special  assessment on all SAIF-insured
institutions  to enable the SAIF to achieve its required  level of reserves.  If
the proposed  assessment of .85% was effected  based on deposits as of March 31,
1995 (as originally  proposed),  the Bank's special  assessment  would amount to
approximately  $1,008,000,  before taxes.  Accordingly,  this special assessment
would  significantly  increase  other  expenses and adversely  affect results of
operations. Depending upon the capital level and supervisory rating of the Bank,
and assuming the insurance  premium levels for commercial banks and SAIF members
again equalized,  future deposit insurance premiums could decrease from the .23%
of deposits  currently paid by the Bank. Such reduction in premiums would reduce
other expenses for future periods.

o    Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following  methods and  assumptions  were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instrument:

Cash  and  Cash  Equivalents--The  fair  value  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents
approximates carrying value.

Investment Securities--Fair values are based on quoted market prices.

Loans--The  fair  value  for  loans is  estimated  using  discounted  cash  flow
analyses,  using interest rates  currently  being offered for loans with similar
terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Interest    Receivable/Payable--The    fair    values   of   accrued    interest
receivable/payable approximates carrying values.

FHLB  Stock--Fair  value of FHLB  stock is based on the price at which it may be
resold to the FHLB.

Deposits--Fair  values  for  certificates  of  deposit  are  estimated  using  a
discounted  cash flow  calculation  that applies  interest rates currently being
offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated  expected monthly maturities
on such time deposits.

Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  Advances--The  fair  value  of these  borrowings  are
estimated using a discounted cash flow  calculation,  based on current rates for
similar debt.

Advances  by  Borrowers  for Taxes and  Insurance--The  fair value  approximates
carrying value.
