                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)





NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management,
are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Ohio
State Bancshares, Inc. at March 31, 1997, and its results of operations and
cash flows for the periods presented.  All such adjustments are normal and
recurring in nature.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions of Form 10-QSB and therefore
do not purport to contain all the necessary financial disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles that might otherwise be necessary in
the circumstances and should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto of Ohio State Bancshares, Inc. for the year ended
December 31, 1996 included in its 1996 Annual Report.  Reference is made to the
accounting policies of Ohio State Bancshares, Inc. described in the notes to
financial statements contained in the  1996 annual report.  Ohio State
Bancshares, Inc. has consistently followed these policies in preparing this
Form 10-QSB.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ohio
State Bancshares, Inc. ("OSB") and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Marion Bank
(the "Bank").  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated.  At the annual shareholder meeting held April 13, 1995, the Bank's
shareholders approved a plan of reorganization whereby they would exchange
their shares of Bank stock for the common stock of a bank holding company.  The
reorganization was consummated May 16, 1996.  The transaction represented an
internal reorganization and the historical basis of assets and liabilities have
been carried forward without change.

OSB's and the Bank's revenues, operating income and assets are primarily from
the banking industry.  Loan customers are mainly located in Marion County, Ohio
and include a wide range of individuals, businesses and other organizations.  A
major portion of loans are secured by various forms of collateral including
real estate, business assets, consumer property and other items, although
borrower cash flow may also be a primary source of repayment.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
based on available information.  These estimates and assumptions affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided.
Future results could differ from these estimates.  The collectibility of loans,
fair values of financial instruments and the status of contingencies are
particularly subject to change.

For the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, OSB paid interest of
$387,458 and $371,433, respectively, and income taxes of $0 and $50,927,
respectively.  Noncash transfers from loans to other real estate owned and
repossessions totaled $19,100 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
$23,129 for the three months ended March 31, 1996.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

The provision for income taxes is based upon the effective tax rate expected to
be applicable for the entire year.  Income tax expense is the sum of the
current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets
and liabilities.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future
tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax
basis of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates.  A valuation
allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
realized.

in 1996.  It revises the accounting for transfers of financial assets, such as
loans and securities, and for distinguishing between sales and secured
borrowings.  It was originally effective for some transactions in 1997 and
others in 1998.  SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain
Provisions of FASB Statement No. 125" was issued in December 1996.  SFAS No.
127 defers for one year the effective date of provisions related to securities
lending, repurchase agreements and other similar transactions.  The remaining
portions of SFAS 125 will continue to be effective January 1, 1997.  SFAS No.
125 did not have a material impact on OSB's financial statements.

In March 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which is
effective for financial statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997,
including interim periods.  SFAS No. 128 simplifies the calculation of earnings
per share by replacing primary EPS with basic EPS.  It also requires dual
presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS for entities with complex capital
structures.  Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares
outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of
securities that could share in earnings such as stock options, warrants or
other common stock equivalents.  All prior period EPS data will be restated to
conform with the new presentation.  This statement will not impact OSB as the
Company has no common stock equivalents at the present time.

NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS, OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONTINGENCIES

Various contingent liabilities are not reflected in the financial statements,
including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business.
In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the
ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material affect
on the financial condition or results of operations.

At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, reserves of $349,000 and $313,000 were
required as deposits with the Federal Reserve or as cash on hand.  These
reserves do not earn interest.

Included in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996
was approximately $1,865,000 and $1,547,000, respectively, on deposit with the
Independent State Bank of Ohio.

Some financial instruments are used in the normal course of business to meet
the financing needs of customers and to reduce exposure to interest rate
changes.  These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit,
standby letters of credit and financial guarantees.  These involve, to varying
degrees, credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount reported in the
financial statements.

Exposure to credit loss if the other party does not perform is represented by
the contractual amount for commitments to extend credit, standby letters of
credit and financial guarantees written.  The same credit policies are used for
commitments and conditional obligations as are used for loans.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment.
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 used, the total commitments do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements.  Standby letters of credit and financial
guarantees written are conditions commitments to guarantee a customer's
performance to a third party.

Commitments to extend credit (primarily in the form of undisbursed portions of
approved lines of credit) consist primarily of variable rate commitments.  The
interest rates on these commitments ranged from 5.9% to 11.25% at March 31,
1997 and 5.9% to 10.9% at December 31, 1996.  Outstanding commitments for
credit cards rates ranged from 14.25% to 17.90% and 14.25% to 16.75% as of
March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996.  Of the total outstanding balances on
these credit cards at March 31, 1997, 59% were fixed and 41% were variable rate
and at December 31, 1996, 62% were fixed rate and 38% were variable rate.

At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Bank had a line of credit enabling
it to borrow up to $2,100,000 with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati.
Borrowings under this line totaled $1,500,000 at March 31, 1997.  No borrowings
were outstanding on this line of credit as of December 31, 1996.  Advances
under the agreement are collateralized by a blanket pledge of the Bank's real
estate mortgage loan portfolio and Federal Home Loan Bank stock.

The Bank's new branch is leased under an operating lease.  The lease term is
for twenty years.  At the conclusion of the fifth, tenth and fifteenth years of
the lease, the rent shall be adjusted by 50% of the cumulative increase in the
Consumer Price Index over the previous five years with a minimum of 5% increase
and a maximum of 10% increase for any one five-year period.  Rental expense was
$9,687 for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

Rental commitments under this noncancelable operating lease are:

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS





INTRODUCTION

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of
Ohio State Bancshares, Inc. ("OSB") at March 31, 1997, compared to December 31,
1996, and the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996.  The purpose of this
discussion is to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of the
consolidated financial statements.  This discussion should be read in
conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and related
footnotes.

In addition to the historical information contained herein, the following
discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties.  Economic circumstances, OSB's operations and OSB's actual
results could differ significantly from those discussed in the forward-looking
statements.  Some of the factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences are discussed herein but also include changes in the economy and
interest rates in the nation and in OSB's general market area.

Some of the forward-looking statements included herein are the statements
regarding the following:

   1.   Management's determination of the amount of loan loss allowance and
        the amount of the loan loss provision;

   2.   The sufficiency of the Corporation's liquidity and capital
        reserves.

See Exhibit 99, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The registrant is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that will
have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the liquidity,
capital resources or operations except as discussed herein.  Also, the
Registrant is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory
authorities which would have such effect if implemented.



FINANCIAL CONDITION

OSB has experienced modest asset growth since December 31, 1996 as total assets
increased $1,078,000 or 2.50% from $43,056,000 at December 31, 1996 to
$44,133,000 at March 31, 1997.  Maintaining a moderate growth rate while
increasing the loan to deposit ratio continues to be OSB's primary strategy.

The increase in interest-earning deposits in other banks, securities available
for sale and securities held to maturity of $331,000, or 2.95% from December
31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 was consistent with the growth in total assets.  It
is management's intent to use excess funds as they become available, plus the
proceeds from maturing securities and principle repayments from 



                                                                             14.

mortgage-backed securities to retire short term Federal Home Loan Bank advances
or fund future loan commitments.

Net loans increased $655,000, or 2.38% during the period from December 31, 1996
to March 31, 1997.  This growth was funded primarily by Federal Home Loan Bank
short term borrowings.  Installment loan demand continued to be strong and
constituted $640,000 of the total loan growth.

Total deposits decreased $504,000, or (1.28%) from December 31, 1996 to March
31, 1997.  The decrease in deposits was primarily due to the maturity of a
single purpose public fund deposit needed for library improvements and the
maturity of a block of high rate short term funds that OSB decided not to rebid
on.  As a result, OSB had short-term borrowings of $1,500,000 at March 31, 1997
to compensate for the decline in deposits as well as to provide funds for
growth.  OSB plans to be active in the new deposit market as deposits are
needed to fund loan demand.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The operating results of OSB are affected by general economic conditions, the
monetary and fiscal policies of federal agencies and the regulatory policies of
agencies that regulate financial institutions.  OSB's cost funds is influenced
by interest rates on competing investments and general market rates of
interest.  Lending activities are influenced by consumer and business demand,
which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which such loans are made,
general economic conditions and the availability of funds for lending
activities.

OSB's net income is primarily dependent upon its net interest income, which is
the difference between interest income generated on interest-earning assets and
interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities.  Net income is also
affected by provisions for loan losses, service charges, gains on the sale of
assets and other income, noninterest expense and income taxes.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $75,000 or $38,000
more than the same period in 1996.  The reason for the increase in earnings was
due to improved interest income.

Net interest income is the largest component of OSB's income and is affected by
the interest rate environment and the volume and composition of interest
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  Net interest income increased
by $57,000 for the three month period ending March 31, 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996.  The increase in net interest income is attributable to
OSB increasing its loan to deposit ratio from 60% on December 31, 1995 to 72%
as of March 31, 1997.  The increase in the loan to deposit ratio has resulted
in an improved net interest margin as loans typically earn a higher yield than
other investing alternatives. OSB's interest expense during the three month
period ending March 31, 1997 was almost identical to OSB's interest expense for
the three month period ending March 31, 1996.


                                                                             15.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was comparable to
the same period in the prior year.  Noninterest expense was up only $7,500 or
1.93% for the period ending March 31, 1997 versus the three months ending March
31, 1996.  The minimal increase occurred despite the overhead expense
associated with the new branch which opened December 6, 1996.


CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal
banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action
regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain
off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices.
Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments
by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the
regulators can lower classifications in certain cases.  Failure to meet various
capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct
material effect on the operations of the Bank.

The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications,
including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these
terms are not used to represent overall financial condition.  If adequately
capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits.  If
undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and
expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required.  The minimum
requirements are:

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity management focuses on the ability to have funds available to meet the
loan and depository transaction needs of the Bank's customers and OSB's other
financial commitments.  Cash and cash equivalent assets (which include deposits
this Bank maintains at other banks, federal funds sold and other short-term
investments) totaled $2,863,000 at March 31, 1997 and $2,688,000 at December
31, 1996.  These assets provide the primary source of funds for loan demand and
deposit balance fluctuations.  Additional sources of liquidity are securities
classified as available for sale and access to Federal Home Loan Bank advances,
as the Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati.

Taking into account the capital adequacy, profitability and reputation
maintained by OSB, available liquidity sources are considered adequate to meet
current and projected needs.
