                       WESTERN OHIO FINANCIAL CORPORATION
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis  of  Presentation:   The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting
principles for interim  financial  reporting and with the  instructions  to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of
the  information  and  footnotes  required  by  generally  accepted   accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation  have been included.  These unaudited  consolidated  financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto  included in the  Corporation's  annual report on Form 10-K for the year
ended  December 31,  1999.  The  financial  data and results of  operations  for
interim  periods  presented  may  not  necessarily  reflect  the  results  to be
anticipated  for the entire year.  Internal  financial  information is primarily
reported and aggregated solely in the line of the banking business.

Consolidation  Policy:  The financial  statements include Western Ohio Financial
Corporation  (the "Company") and its wholly owned  subsidiary  Cornerstone  Bank
("Cornerstone"). The financial statements of Cornerstone include the accounts of
its wholly owned subsidiaries, CornerstoneBanc Financial Services, Inc. ("CFSI")
and West Central Financial Services, Inc. ("WCFS").

Use of Estimates:  To prepare financial  statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based
on available  information.  These estimates and  assumptions  affect the amounts
reported in the financial  statements and the disclosures  provided,  and future
results  could differ.  The allowance for loan losses,  fair values of financial
instruments and status of contingencies are particularly subject to change.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total 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 amounts for the 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.  Income tax
expense is based on the effective  rate expected to be applicable for the entire
year.

Earnings  Per Common  Share:  Basic  earnings  per common share are based on net
income  divided by the  weighted  average  number of common  shares  outstanding
during the period.  Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") shares are considered
to be outstanding for the calculation  unless unearned.  Management  Recognition
Plan ("MRP")  shares are considered  outstanding as they become vested.  Diluted
earnings per common share include the dilutive  effect of  additional  potential
common shares issuable under stock options.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Consolidated  assets of the Company  totaled $350.0 million at June 30, 2000, an
increase of $20.3 million from the December 31, 1999,  total of $329.7  million.
The primary  increase  in assets is a result of an increase of $24.8  million in
net loans receivable.  Funds for the loan growth were primarily obtained through
additional  Federal  Home Loan Bank  borrowings  of $16.1  million and a deposit
increase of $5.7 million.

Net loans increased $24.7 million,  or 9.7% during the six months ended June 30,
2000,  increasing  from $254.7 million in December 31, 1999 to $279.4 million on
June 30, 2000. For the period,  commercial loans increased $5.8 million to $11.3
million at June 30,  2000.  Other real estate  properties  also  increased  $8.0
million  from $52.6  million at December  31, 1999 to $60.6  million at June 30,
2000. These increases were the result of  Cornerstone's  effort to diversify its
portfolio  into more  commercial  type  loans.  Traditional  one-to-four  family
residential  mortgage  loans  increased  $4.8 million to $183.1 at June 30, 2000
from $178.3 million at December 30, 1999. This increase includes the purchase of
approximately $11.9 million adjustable rate mortgage loans.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash and cash equivalents  decreased by $3.1 million to $6.5 million on June 30,
2000, from $9.6 million on December 31, 1999. Cash and cash equivalents  consist
of cash,  checking  deposits  and federal  funds  deposited  at other  financial
institutions.  The decrease was  primarily  the result of reducing  excess funds
maintained over year-end as a year 2000 contingency.

Securities  available  for sale  decreased  $2.3 million  from $50.4  million at
December 31,  1999,  to $48.1  million on June 30, 2000.  The decline was due to
principal repayments on existing  mortgage-backed  securities available for sale
being used to fund loan growth.

Deposits at June 30, 2000 totaled $208.0  million,  an increase of $5.7 million,
or 2.8% from $202.3  million at December 31, 1999.  The majority of the increase
occurred in demand and NOW accounts where  Cornerstone is attempting to grow its
retail and commercial checking account relationships.

FHLB  advances  at June 30, 2000  totaled  $98.3  million,  an increase of $16.1
million or 19.6% from $82.2  million at  December  31,  1999.  The  majority  of
borrowed  funds are invested in loans to leverage the Company's  excess  capital
and improve the Company's return on equity over time. Additionally,  the Company
used advances to better match estimated  maturities of larger loan  originations
and purchases during the period. The new advances are both fixed and variable in
nature.

Total shareholders' equity decreased $1.1 million from $43.0 million at December
31, 1999, to $41.9  million at June 30, 2000.  This decrease is primarily due to
the Company purchasing approximately $1.4 million of its common stock during the
first half of 2000.


As of March 31,  2000,  the  Company  had  commitments  to make $3.1  million of
residential  loans.  It is expected  that these  loans will be funded  within 30
days.  The  Company  also had  $5.5  million  in  commitments  to fund  loans on
residential properties under construction.  These commitments are anticipated to
be filled  within three to six months.  Unused  commercial  lines of credit were
$2.6  million  and  unused  home  equity  lines of credit  were  $11.2  million.
Commitments to originate nonmortgage loans total $0.3 million.


Results of Operations

Operating  results of the Company are affected by general  economic  conditions,
monetary  and fiscal  policies  of federal  agencies  and  policies  of agencies
regulating financial institutions.  The Company's cost of funds is influenced by
interest  rates on competing  investments  and general market rates of interest.
Lending  activities  are influenced by demand for real estate and other types of
loans which,  in turn, is affected by the interest rates at which such loans are
made,  general  economic  conditions  and  availability  of  funds  for  lending
activities.

The Company's net income is primarily  dependent on its net interest income (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 sale of
assets,  other income,  noninterest  expense and income taxes. The Company's net
income of  $485,000  and  $890,000  for the three and six months  ended June 30,
2000,  represented  increases of $85,000 and $39,000  when  compared to the same
periods in 1999. Basic earnings per share increased $.06 and $.05 per share from
$.20 and $.43 per for 1999 to $.26 and $.48 per share for 2000.

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

Net  interest  income is the largest  component of the  Company's  income and is
affected  by the  interest  rate  environment  and  volume  and  composition  of
interest-earning  assets and interest-bearing  liabilities.  Net interest income
totaled  $2,515,000  and  $4,938,000 for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000,  compared to $2,462,000  and  $4,888,000 for the same periods in 1999. The
Company remains  liability  sensitive whereby its  interest-bearing  liabilities
will generally reprice more quickly than its interest-earning assets. Therefore,
the Company's net interest margin will generally  increase in periods of falling
interest  rates in the market and will  decrease  in periods of rising  interest
rates as is currently being experienced.  Accordingly, in a rising interest rate
environment,  the  Company  may need to  increase  rates to  attract  and retain
deposits.  Due to this negative gap position, the rise in interest rates may not
have  such an  immediate  impact  on  interest-earning  assets.  This lag  could
negatively affect net interest income in future periods

Interest and fees on loans totaled  $5,435,000 and $10,409,000 for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $4,765,000  and  $9,375,000 the three
and six months  ended  June 30,  1999.  The  increases  were due to the  overall
increase in the interest rate  environment,  higher average loan  balances,  and
increased origination of commercial and commercial real estate loans.

Interest and dividends on securities  totaled  $805,000 and  $1,655,000  for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000,  and $875,000 and  $2,178,000  for the
three and six months  ended June 30,  1999.  The  decrease  was due to principal
payments on securities and reinvestment of funds in higher yielding loans.

Interest on deposits  totaled  $2,579,000  and  $5,048,000 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000 and  $2,425,000  and $4,793,000 for the three and six
months ended June 30,  1999.  This  increase was due to the overall  increase in
interest  rates   resulting  in  a  higher  cost  to  attract  and  retain  both
certificates of deposit and money market accounts.

Interest on FHLB advances was  $1,313,000  and  $2,409,000 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $934,000 and $1,973,000 for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1999.  The increase is due an increase  borrowing from
the FHLB to fund loan  growth and higher  rates on  advances  due to the overall
increase in rates.

The  Company  maintains  an  allowance  for loan losses in an amount  which,  in
management's  judgement,  is  adequate  to  absorb  probable  losses in the loan
portfolio.   While  management  utilizes  its  best  judgement  and  information
available,  ultimate  adequacy of the  allowance  is  dependent  on a variety of
factors,  including  performance of the Company's loan  portfolio,  the economy,
changes in real estate values and interest  rates and the view of the regulatory
authorities  toward  loan  classifications.  The  provision  for loan  losses is
determined  by  management  as the amount to be added to the  allowance for loan
losses  after net  charge-offs  have been  deducted to bring the  allowance to a
level considered  adequate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio.  The
amount of the  provision  is based on  management's  regular  review of the loan
portfolio  and  consideration  of such factors as  historical  loss  experience,
changes in size and  composition  of the loan  portfolio  and specific  borrower
considerations,  including  ability  of the  borrower  to repay the loan and the
estimated  value of the  underlying  collateral.  The  provision for loan losses
totaled  $84,000 and  $168,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000,
compared to $75,000  and  $107,000  for the three and six months  ended June 30,
1999.

Loan  charge-offs  were  $1,440,000  and $1,499,000 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000  compared to $442,000  and  $529,000 for the same periods in
1999.  During the three  months ended June 30,  2000,  the Company  resolved two
large  problem  loans  and  charged-off  portions  of  two  other  problem  loan

relationships.  These loans were previously  identified and reported as impaired
and specific loan loss reserves had been  established for them. The two resolved
loans included principal repayments of $366,000 and principal losses of $233,000
against which  $209,000 of specific  reserves had been  established.  Based on a
lack of current  progress in  resolving  the other two problem  loans as well as
improved  reporting  capabilities of the new data processing system installed in
March 2000, management  charged-off  approximately  $1,115,000 of loan principal
against the allowance.  Specific  reserves of approximately  the same amount had
previously been established. The Company continues to actively pursue collection
of these two relationships.

Noninterest  income  totaled  $301,000 and $600,000 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000  compared to $321,000  and  $697,000 for the same periods in
1999.  The decrease is primarily due to the rise in interest rates which reduced
the volume of loans  originated for sale in the secondary market and a gain last
year on the sale of loan servicing.

Noninterest  expense  totaled  $1,980,000  and  $3,987,000 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $2,096,000  and  $4,129,000  for the same
periods in 1999.  Noninterest expense is comprised of employee  compensation and
benefits,  occupancy,  deposit  insurance  premiums,  state  franchise taxes and
miscellaneous other expenses.  No individual  component had a significant change
from the same period in 1999.

The  change in income  tax is  primarily  attributable  to the  change in income
before income taxes.  Income tax expense  totaled  $267,000 and $493,000,  or an
effective  rate of 35.6%,  for the three and six  months  ended  June 30,  2000,
compared to $212,000 and $498,000,  or an effective rate of 34.6% and 36.9%, for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1999.


Liquidity

Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS")  regulations  presently require Cornerstone
Bank to maintain  an average  daily  balance of  investments  in U.S.  Treasury,
federal agency obligations and other investments having maturities of five years
or less in an  amount  equal  to 4% of the sum of  Cornerstone's  average  daily
balance of net withdrawable  deposit accounts and borrowings payable in one year
or less.  The liquidity  requirement,  which may be changed from time to time by
the OTS to reflect changing economic conditions, is intended to provide a source
of relatively liquid funds on which Cornerstone may rely, if necessary,  to fund
deposit  withdrawals  or  other  short-term  funding  needs.  At June  30,  2000
Cornerstone's  regulatory  liquidity was 17.31%.  At such date,  Cornerstone had
commitments to originate  fixed rate loans  totaling $3.1 million.  In addition,
Cornerstone  had $5.5  million  in  commitments  to fund  loans  on  residential
properties  under  construction.  Unused  commercial  lines of credit  were $2.6
million and unused home equity lines of credit were $11.2  million.  Cornerstone
had no  commitments  to  purchase  or sell  loans.  Cornerstone  considers  it's
liquidity  and capital  reserves  sufficient to meet its  outstanding  short and
long-term needs.


Capital Resources

Cornerstone  is  required  by  regulations  to  meet  certain   minimum  capital
requirements,  which must be generally as stringent as standards established for
commercial banks. Current capital requirements call for tangible capital of 1.5%
of adjusted total assets,  core capital (which for Cornerstone,  consists solely

of tangible  capital) of 4.0% of adjusted total assets,  except for institutions

percentage levels ranging from 0% to 100% depending on their relative risk).
