PART I
Item 1. Description of Business
General
LSB Financial Corp. ("LSB" or the "Company") is an Indiana corporation
which was organized in 1994 by Lafayette Savings Bank, FSB ("Lafayette" or the
"Bank") for the purpose of becoming a thrift institution holding company.
Lafayette is a federally chartered stock savings bank headquartered in
Lafayette, Indiana. Originally organized in 1869, the Bank converted to a
federal savings bank in 1984. Its deposits are insured up to the applicable
limits by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC"). In February 1995, the Bank converted to the stock form of
organization through the sale and issuance of 1,029,576 shares of its common
stock to the Company. The principal asset of the Company is the outstanding
stock of the Bank, its wholly owned subsidiary. The Company presently has no
separate operations and its business consists only of the business of the Bank.
All references to the Company, unless otherwise indicated, at or before February
3, 1995 refer to the Bank.
LSB has been, and intends to continue to be, a community-oriented
financial institution. The principal business of the Company consists of
attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds
primarily in permanent first mortgage loans secured by owner-occupied, one- to
four-family residences, and to a lesser extent, non-owner occupied one- to
four-family residential, commercial real estate, multi-family, construction and
development, consumer and commercial business loans. The Company currently
serves Tippecanoe County, Indiana (the "primary market area") through its three
retail banking offices. At December 31, 1996, LSB had total assets of $184.6
million, deposits of $116.9 million and shareholders' equity of $16.8 million.
The Company's revenues are derived principally from interest on
mortgage and other loans and interest on securities.
Since the Bank, unlike most savings associations, is insured by the
BIF, it benefitted from a reduction in the deposit insurance rate charged by the
FDIC effective June 1, 1995. In addition, the Bank was not subject to the
federal legislation passed on September 30, 1996, requiring virtually all
SAIF-insured institutions to pay a one-time special assessment. See "Regulation
- - Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC."
The executive offices of the Company are located at 101 Main Street,
Lafayette, Indiana 47902. Its telephone number at that address is (765)
742-1064.
Lending Activities
General. The principal lending activity of the Company is the
origination of conventional mortgage loans for the purpose of purchasing,
constructing, or refinancing owner-occupied one- to four-family residential real
estate located in the Company's primary market area. The Company also originates
non-owner occupied one- to four-family residential, commercial real estate,
multi-family, consumer and commercial business loans.
2
<PAGE>
In the mid 1980's, the Company began originating adjustable rate
mortgages ("ARMs") for retention in its portfolio in an effort to increase the
percentage of loans with more frequent repricing than traditional long term,
fixed-rate loans. As a result of continued consumer demand for long-term, fixed
rate loans, the Company has continued to originate such loans. LSB underwrites
these mortgage loans utilizing secondary market guidelines allowing them to be
saleable, without recourse, primarily to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation ("FHLMC"). The sale of such loans results in additional short-term
income and improves the Company's interest rate risk position. The Company
generally retains servicing rights on loans sold in the secondary market.
Furthermore, in order to limit its potential exposure to increasing interest
rates caused by its traditional emphasis on originating single family mortgage
loans, the Company has diversified its portfolio by increasing its emphasis on
the origination of short-term commercial real estate, business and consumer
loans. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations - Asset/Liability Management" in the Annual Report to
Stockholders filed as Exhibit 13 hereto ("Annual Report").
Loan officers and certain executive officers of the Company have
approval authority on loans depending on the type and amount of the loan. All
owner-occupied residential loans greater than $200,000 and all non-owner
occupied residential loans and commercial business loans of $250,000 or more
must be approved by the loan committee of the Board of Directors. Any loan or
aggregate of loans to one borrower of $600,000 or more must be approved by a
majority of the full Board of Directors.
At December 31, 1996, the maximum amount which the Bank could have
loaned to any one borrower and the borrower's related entities was $2.3 million.
At that date, the Bank had a group of loans to a single borrower with
outstanding balances totaling approximately $2.4 million. The Bank inadvertently
made these loans to the Bennett Funding Group in 1995 in violation of its loans-
to-one-borrower limitation. See "Non-Performing Assets - Non-Accruing Loans."
The Bank's next largest lending relationship to a single borrower or a group of
related borrowers totaled $2.3 million at December 31, 1996, consisting of
multiple loans to a single borrower secured by multi-family dwellings used as
student housing and by land intended to be developed for additional multi-family
dwellings. These loans were performing in accordance with their terms at
December 31, 1996. The third largest lending relationship to a single borrower
or a group of related borrowers totaled $2.2 million, consisting of multiple
loans to a single borrower secured by one- to four-family and multi-family
rental properties and a commercial property. These loans were also performing in
accordance with their terms at December 31, 1996. At December 31, 1996, the
Company had 19 other loans or lending relationships to a single borrower or
group of related borrowers with a principal balance in excess of $1.0 million,
all of which were performing in accordance with their repayment terms.

One- to Four-Family Residential Real Estate Lending
The Company focuses its lending program on the origination of permanent
loans secured by mortgages on owner-occupied, one- to four-family residences.
The Company also originates loans secured by nonowner-occupied, one- to
four-family residences. At December 31, 1996, $97.0 million, or 57.72% of the
Company's total loan portfolio consisted of permanent loans secured by one- to
four-family residences. Substantially all of these loans were secured by
properties located in the Company's primary market area. The Company originates
a variety of residential loans, including conventional 15 and 30 year fixed-rate
loans, ARMs and balloon loans.
The Company's one- to four-family residential ARMs are fully amortizing
loans with contractual maturities of up to 30 years. The interest rates on
substantially all of the ARMs originated by the Company are subject to
adjustment at one or three year intervals. The Company's ARM products generally
carry interest rates which are reset to a stated margin over the weekly average
of the one or three year U.S. Treasury rates. Increases or decreases in the
interest rate of the Company's one-year ARMs are generally limited to 2%
annually with a lifetime interest rate cap of 6% over the initial rate.
Increases or decreases in the interest rate of three-year ARMs are limited to a
3% adjustment cap with a 5% lifetime interest rate cap over the initial rate.
The Company's one-year ARMs may be convertible into fixed-rate loans after the
first year and before the sixth year upon payment of a fee, do not contain
prepayment penalties and do not produce negative amortization. Initial interest
rates offered on the Company's ARMs may be below the fully indexed rate.
Borrowers are qualified at 2% over the initial interest rate for the Company's
one-year ARMS and at the initial interest rate for the Company's three-year
ARMs. At December 31, 1996, the total balance of one- to four- family ARMs was
$48.7 million, or 29.03% of the Company's gross loan portfolio. The Company
generally retains ARMs in its portfolio pursuant to its asset/liability
management strategy. Three-year ARMs represented $39.6 million and one-year ARMs
represented $9.1 million of the Company's total ARMs at December 31, 1996.
The Company also offers fixed-rate mortgage loans to owner occupants
with maturities up to 30 years and which conform to FHLMC standards. LSB
currently sells in the secondary market the majority of long-term, conforming,
fixed-rate loans with terms over 15 years it originates. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -
Asset/Liability Management" in the Annual Report. Interest rates charged on
these fixed-rate loans are priced on a daily basis in accordance with FHLMC
pricing standards. These loans do not include prepayment penalties.
In 1995, the Company expanded its product line to better compete for
residential mortgage loan customers by offering 30 year, fixed-rate mortgage
loans which, after five or seven years convert to the Company's standard
one-year ARM for the remainder of the term. The Company had $14.7 million in
five-year and seven-year convertible residential mortgage loans at December 31,
1996 (currently categorized by the Company as fixed-rate loans).
The Company had $26.6 million in nonowner-occupied one- to four-family
residential loans at December 31, 1996. These loans are underwritten using the
same criteria as owner-occupied, one- to four-family residential loans, but are
provided at higher rates than owner-occupied loans. The Company offers
fixed-rate, adjustable-rate and convertible rate loans, with terms of up to 30
years.
7
<PAGE>
The Company originates residential mortgage loans with loan-to-value
ratios of up to 95% for owner-occupied residential loans and up to 80% for
nonowner-occupied residential loans. LSB requires private mortgage insurance in
an amount intended to reduce the Company's exposure to 80% or less of the lesser
of the purchase price or appraised value of the underlying collateral.
In underwriting one- to four-family residential real estate loans, LSB
evaluates both the borrower's ability to make monthly payments and the value of
the property securing the loan. Properties securing owner-occupied one- to
four-family residential real estate loans made by LSB are appraised by
independent fee appraisers. LSB requires borrowers to obtain title insurance and
fire, extended coverage casualty and flood insurance (if appropriate). Real
estate loans originated by the Company contain a "due on sale" clause allowing
the Company to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the
sale of the security property.
Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Lending
LSB originates permanent loans secured by multi-family and commercial
real estate. At December 31, 1996, the Company's multi-family and commercial
real estate loan portfolio totaled $38.6 million, or 23.00% of the Company's
total loan portfolio, compared to $27.1 million and $18.4 million, or 19.60% and
18.19%, at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The increase in the
commercial and multi-family loan portfolio is due to the hiring during 1994 of
an experienced commercial loan officer to further develop this portfolio.
The Company's permanent multi-family and commercial real estate loan
portfolio includes loans secured by apartment buildings, office buildings,
churches, warehouses, retail stores, shopping centers, small business facilities
and farm properties, most of which are located within the Company's primary
market area.
Permanent multi-family and commercial real estate loans are originated
as three-year and five-year ARMs with up to a 24 year amortization. To a
substantially lesser extent, such loans are originated as 10 year fixed-rate
loans. The ARMs are tied to an index based on the weekly average of the
three-year or five-year U.S. Treasury rate, respectively, plus a margin of 3%.
Multi-family loans and commercial real estate loans have been written in amounts
of up to 75% of the lesser of the appraised value of the property or the
purchase price, and borrowers are generally personally liable for all or part of
the indebtedness.
Appraisals on properties securing multi-family and commercial real
estate loans originated in excess of $100,000 by the Company are performed by
independent appraisers designated by the Company at the time the loan is made
and reviewed by management. In addition, the Company's underwriting procedures
generally require verification of the borrower's credit history, income and
financial statements, banking relationships and income projections for the
property.
Multi-family and commercial real estate loans generally present a
higher level of risk than loans secured by one- to four-family residences. This
greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal
in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic
conditions on income producing properties and the increased difficulty of
evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Furthermore, the repayment of
loans secured by multi-family and
8
<PAGE>
commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of
the related real estate project. If the cash flow from the project is reduced
(for example, if leases are not obtained or renewed, or a bankruptcy court
modifies a lease term, or a major tenant is unable to fulfill its lease
obligations), the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired.
Construction, Land and Land Development Lending
The Company makes construction loans to individuals for the
construction of their residences as well as to builders and developers for the
construction of one- to four-family residences, multi-family dwellings and
commercial real estate projects. At December 31, 1996, substantially all of
these loans were secured by property located within the Company's primary market
area. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $14.4 million in construction loans
outstanding, representing 8.60% of the Company's total loan portfolio.
Construction loans to individuals for their residences typically run
six to eight months and are generally structured to be converted to permanent
loans at the end of the construction phase. These construction loans are
fixed-rate loans, with interest rates higher than those offered on one- to
four-family loans by the Company. During the construction phase, the borrower
pays interest only. Residential construction loans are underwritten pursuant to
the same guidelines used for originating permanent residential loans. At
December 31, 1996, the Company had $4.2 million of construction loans to
borrowers intending to live in the properties upon completion of construction.
Construction loans to builders of one- to four-family residences have
terms of six to eight months and require the payment of interest only at a
fixed-rate for the loan term. The Company limits builders to one home at a time
but would consider requests for more than one if the homes are presold. At
December 31, 1996, the Company had $3.8 million of construction loans to
builders of one- to four-family residences.
Construction loans are made to builders of multi-family dwellings and
commercial projects with terms up to one year and requiring payment of interest
only at a fixed rate for the construction phase of the loan. These loans are
generally structured to be converted to one of the Company's permanent
commercial loan products at the end of the construction phase. At December 31,
1996, the Company had $6.4 million of loans to finance the construction of
multi-family dwellings and commercial projects.
The Company also makes loans to builders for the purpose of developing
one- to four-family lots and residential condominium projects. These loans
typically have terms of two to three years with interest rates tied to the
Company's base rate which is determined by a rate survey of a cross section of
local banks. The maximum loan to value ratio is 75%. The principal in these
loans is typically paid down as lots or units are sold. These loans may be
structured as revolving lines of credit with maturities of generally two years
or less. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $2.3 million of development loans
to builders. The Company also makes a limited number of land acquisition and
commercial real estate construction loans. At December 31, 1996, the Company had
$1.0 million in loans secured by land.
9
<PAGE>
Construction and development loans are obtained principally through
continued business from developers and builders who have previously borrowed
from the Company, as well as referrals from existing customers and realtors, and
walk-in customers. The application process includes a submission to the Company
of accurate plans, specifications and costs of the project to be
constructed/developed which are used as a basis to determine the appraised value
of the subject property. Loans are based on the lesser of current appraised
value and/or the cost of construction (land plus building).
At December 31, 1996, the Company's largest construction and
development loan was a construction loan for a sports center with a $1.1 million
commitment and an aggregate outstanding balance of $357,000. The Company had no
non-performing construction loans at December 31, 1996.
Construction and land development loans generally present a higher
level of risk than loans secured by one- to four-family residences. Because of
the uncertainties inherent in estimating land development and construction costs
and the market for the project upon completion, it is relatively difficult to
evaluate accurately the total loan funds required to complete a project, the
related loan-to-value ratios and the likelihood of ultimate success of the
project. Construction and land development loans to borrowers other than
owner-occupants also involve many of the same risks discussed above regarding
multi-family and commercial real estate loans and tend to be more sensitive to
general economic conditions than many other types of loans.
Consumer Lending
The Company originates a variety of different types of consumer loans,
including home equity loans, direct automobile loans, home improvement loans,
credit card loans, deposit account loans and other secured and unsecured loans
for household and personal purposes. At December 31, 1996, consumer loans
totaled $9.8 million or 5.83% of total loans outstanding.
Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral,
length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower. The largest component
of consumer lending is home equity loans which totaled $7.4 million or 4.41% of
the total loan portfolio at December 31, 1996. The Company is currently offering
a revolving line of credit home equity loan on which the total commitment amount
may not exceed 95% of the appraised value of the property, with a five year term
and minimum monthly payment requirement of interest due only. The Company's home
equity loan portfolio also contains equity loans which were written so that the
total commitment amount, when combined with the balance of the first mortgage
lien, would not exceed 80% of the appraised value of the property. These loans
were revolving lines of credit with adjustable rates and had a ten year term
with a minimum monthly payment requirement of 2% of the unpaid balance; however,
as of July 1995 the Company was no longer originating such loans. At December
31, 1996, the Company had $7.8 million of unused credit available under its home
equity line of credit program.
The underwriting standards employed by the Company for consumer loans
include a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and
ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although
creditworthiness of the applicant is of primary consideration, the underwriting
process also includes a comparison of the value of the
10
<PAGE>
security, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount. Consumer loans may
entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in
the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly
depreciable assets, such as automobiles. In such cases, any repossessed
collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of
repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood
of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, consumer loan collections are
dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability, and thus are more
likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the
application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and
insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans.
Commercial Business Lending
At December 31, 1996, $4.8 million or 2.87% of the Company's total
loans were comprised of commercial business loans. LSB's current commercial
business lending activities encompass predominantly unsecured lines of credit
and purchased leases secured by small business equipment such as copy and
facsimile machines. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $2.4 million of loans
secured by purchased leases through Bennett Funding Group ("Bennett"). See " -
Non- Performing Assets - Non-Accruing Loans." At December 31, 1996, the Company
had $499,000 of unsecured lines of credit outstanding with $253,000 of unused
credit available. During the early part of 1994, the Company hired an
experienced commercial loan officer to develop this area of lending, as well as
its commercial real estate portfolio. At December 31, 1996, the Company's
commercial business loans totaled $2.4 million compared to $1.3 million at
December 31, 1994 (excluding Bennett). The Company intends to continue to
increase its portfolio of commercial business loans.
Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the
basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from his or her employment and
other income and which are secured by real property the value of which tends to
be more easily ascertainable, commercial business loans typically are made on
the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the
borrower's business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of
commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the
business itself (which, in turn, is likely to be dependent upon the general
economic environment). The Company's commercial business loans are sometimes,
but not always, secured by business assets. However, the collateral securing the
loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate
in value based on the success of the business.
The Company recognizes the generally increased risks associated with
commercial business lending. LSB's commercial business lending policy emphasizes
credit file documentation and analysis of the borrower's character, capacity to
repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower's capital and collateral as well as
an evaluation of the industry conditions affecting the borrower. Analysis of the
borrower's past, present and future cash flows is also an important aspect of
LSB's credit analysis.
11
<PAGE>
Loan Originations, Purchases and Sales
Real estate loans are originated by LSB's staff of salaried loan
officers and its residential mortgage loan originator who receive applications
from existing customers, walk-in customers, and referrals from realtors. All
types of loans may be originated in any of the Company's four offices.
While the Company originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans,
its ability to originate loans is dependent upon the relative customer demand
for loans in its market. Demand is affected by the interest rate environment.
Currently, all conforming fixed-rate residential mortgage loans with maturities
of 15 years and over are originated for sale in the secondary market. The
Company currently sells such loans primarily to FHLMC while retaining the
servicing rights. These loans are originated to satisfy customer demand and to
generate fee income and are sold to achieve the goals of the Company's
asset/liability management program.
When loans are sold, the Company retains the responsibility for
collecting and remitting loan payments, inspecting the properties, making
certain that insurance and real estate tax 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 servicing fees received by the
Company varies but is generally calculated at 3/8 of 1% per annum for ARMs, and
1/4 of 1% per annum for fixed-rate mortgage loans based on the outstanding
principal amount of the loans serviced. The Company services for others mortgage
loans that it originated and sold amounting to $39.1 million at December 31,
1996.
The Company purchases a limited amount of participation interests in
real estate loans from other financial institutions outside its primary market
area. The Company currently has loan participations in Indianapolis, Indiana,
Michigan and Illinois. The Company carefully reviews and underwrites all loans
to be purchased to insure that they meet the Company's underwriting standards.
In periods of rising interest rates, the Company's ability to originate
large dollar volumes of real estate loans may be substantially reduced or
restricted, with a resultant decrease in related fee income and operating
earnings. In addition, the Company's ability to sell loans may substantially
decrease as potential buyers reduce their purchasing activities.

Asset Quality
When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, the Company
attempts to cause the delinquency to be cured by contacting the borrower. In the
case of residential loans, a late notice is sent for accounts seven or more days
delinquent. If the delinquency is not cured by the 15th day, the borrower will
be assessed a late charge. Additional written and oral contacts may be made with
the borrower between 20 and 30 days after the due date. If the delinquency
continues for a period of 60 days, the Company usually sends a default letter to
the borrower and, after 90 days, institutes appropriate action to foreclose on
the property. If foreclosed, the property is sold at public auction and may be
purchased by the Company. Delinquent consumer loans are handled in a generally
similar manner. The Company's procedures for repossession and sale of consumer
collateral are subject to various requirements under Indiana consumer protection
laws. The Company's levels of delinquent loans have not been significant in
recent years.
Delinquent Loans. The following table sets forth information concerning
delinquent loans at December 31, 1996, in dollar amounts and as a percentage of
each category of the Company's loan portfolio. The amounts presented represent

the term of the loans based upon the principal outstanding except where serious
doubt exists as to the collectibility of a loan, in which case the accrual of
interest is discontinued. For all years presented, the Company has had no
troubled debt restructurings (which involve forgiving a portion of interest or
principal on any loans or making loans at a rate or with a maturity less than
that customary in the Company's market). Foreclosed assets include assets
acquired in settlement of loans. The loan amounts shown do not reflect reserves
set up against such assets. See "- Allowance for Loan Losses."

(1) See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations - Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31,
1995 and December 31, 1996 - Provision for Loan Losses" in the Annual Report for
a discussion on Bennett.
For the year ended December 31, 1996, gross interest income which would
have been recorded had the non-accruing loans been current in accordance with
their original terms was $185,000, none of which was included in interest
income.
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 institution to sufficient risk to warrant
classification in one of the
15
<PAGE>
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 OTS and the FDIC, which 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 Bank regularly
reviews the problem assets in its portfolio to determine whether any assets
require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. At December
31, 1996, the Bank had classified $1.5 million of its loans as substandard
$844,000 as doubtful and none as loss. At December 31, 1996, the Bank had
designated $1.2 million in loans as special mention.
Other Loans of Concern. Included in other loans of concern are certain
potential problem loans which are classified as substandard or have been
categorized as special mention that management believes are adequately secured
and for which no material loss is expected, but as to which certain
circumstances may cause the borrowers to be unable to comply with the present
loan repayment terms at some future date. Such potential problem loans consist
primarily of (i) a single family residence and a multi-family residential rental
property to a single borrower with outstanding balances of $362,000 at December
31, 1996, to which management has concerns as to the cash flow of the borrower;
(ii) multiple loans to a single borrower secured by a retail store and the
personal residence of the borrower with an outstanding balance of $304,000 at
December 31, 1996 (which was restructured during 1988 whereby interest past due
was written as a separate note due and payable when the borrower's other
outstanding debt has been paid off), where the retail store is experiencing cash
flow problems; and (iii) multiple loans to a single borrower secured by one- to
four-family residential rental property and a multi-family residential rental
property with an outstanding balance of $297,000 at December 31, 1996, where
management has concerns about the cash flow of the borrower. The majority of the
remaining classified assets are single loans to borrowers for residential
property.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company establishes an allowance for
loan losses based on a systematic analysis of risk factors in the loan
portfolio. This analysis includes evaluation of concentrations of credit, past
loss experience, current economic conditions, amount and composition of the loan
portfolio, estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, loan commitments
outstanding, delinquencies, industry standards and other factors. Because the
Company has had only nominal loan losses during its recent past, management also
considers the loss experience of similar portfolios in comparable lending
markets as well as using the services of a consultant to assist in the
evaluation of its growing commercial real estate and business loan portfolios.
Management's analysis results in the allocation of allowance amounts to each
loan type. Although, management
16
<PAGE>
believes it uses the best information available to make such determinations,
future adjustments to reserves may be necessary, and net income could be
significantly affected, if circumstances differ substantially from the
assumptions used in making the initial determinations. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -
Results of Operations Provision for Loan Losses."

Investment Activities
LSB must maintain minimum levels of securities that qualify as liquid
assets under OTS regulations. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon
the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to
the return on loans. Historically, the Company has maintained liquid assets at
levels above the minimum requirements imposed by the OTS regulations and above
levels believed adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations,
including potential deposit outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly
reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is maintained. At
December 31, 1996 the Company's liquidity ratio (liquid assets as a percentage
of net withdrawable savings deposits and current borrowings) was 7.31%. The
Company's level of liquidity is a result of management's asset/liability
strategy. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations - Asset/Liability Management" and "-Liquidity and Capital
Resources" in the Annual Report and "Regulation - Liquidity."
Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest
in various types of liquid assets, including United States 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. Subject to various restrictions, federally
chartered savings institutions may also invest their assets in investment grade
commercial paper and corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets
conform to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is
otherwise authorized to make directly.
18
<PAGE>
Generally, the investment policy of the Company is to invest funds
among various categories of investments and maturities based upon the Company's
asset/liability management policies, concern for the highest investment quality,
liquidity needs and performance objectives.
At December 31, 1996, the Company's securities portfolio (excluding
FHLB Stock) totaled $12.0 million, or 6.48% of total assets. As of such date,
the Bank also had a $2.6 million investment in the common stock of the Federal
Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Indianapolis in order to satisfy the requirement for
membership in such institution. It is the Company's general policy to purchase
securities which are U.S. Government securities, investment grade municipal and
corporate bonds, commercial paper, federal agency obligations, and
interest-bearing deposits with the FHLB.
The Company owned $4.0 million of mortgage-backed securities at
December 31, 1996, all of which were insured or guaranteed by the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") or the FHLMC. Accordingly, management
believes that the Company's mortgage-backed securities are generally more
resistant to credit problems than loans, which generally lack such insurance or
guarantees. Because these securities represent a passthrough of principal and
interest from underlying individual 30-year mortgages, such securities do
present prepayment risk. Any such individual security contains mortgages that
can be prepaid at any time over the life of the security. In a rising interest
rate environment the underlying mortgages are likely to extend their lives
versus a stable or declining rate environment. A declining rate environment can
result in rapid prepayment. There is no certainty as to the security life or
speed of prepayment. The geographic makeup and correlated economic conditions of
the underlying mortgages also play an important role in determining prepayment.
In addition to prepayment risk, interest rate risk is inherent in holding any
debt security. As interest rates rise the value of the security declines and
conversely as interest rates decline values rise. Adjustable-rate
mortgage-backed securities have the advantage of moving their interest rate
within limits with the contractual index used, subject to the risk of
prepayment. Interest rate adjustments to $1.7 million of the Company's
adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities are tied to a lagging index, the 11th
District cost of funds index, while $1.7 million are tied to a current index,
specifically, the six month or twelve month Treasury bill rates or the one month
or three month LIBOR rates. At December 31, 1996, 84.35% of the Company's
mortgage-backed securities consisted of adjustable-rate mortgage-backed
securities.
Mortgage-backed securities can serve as collateral for borrowings and,
through sales and repayments, as a source of liquidity. Under the Bank's
risk-based capital requirement, mortgage- backed securities have a risk weight
of 20% in contrast to the 50% risk weight carried by residential loans. See
"Regulation."

Sources of Funds
General. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment
and prepayment of loans, interest earned on or maturation of investment
securities and short-term investments, borrowings and funds provided from
operations.
Deposits. LSB offers a variety of deposit accounts. The Company's
deposits consist of passbook and statement savings accounts, money market
accounts, NOW accounts and certificate accounts. The Company only solicits
deposits from its primary market area and does not use brokers to obtain
deposits. The Company relies primarily on competitive pricing policies,
advertising, and customer service to attract and retain these deposits.
The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic
conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates and
competition. The variety of deposit accounts offered by the Company has allowed
it to be competitive in obtaining funds and to respond with flexibility to
changes in consumer demand. The Company manages the pricing of its deposits in
keeping with its asset/liability management, profitability and growth
objectives. Based on its experience, the Company believes that its savings,
interest and noninterest-bearing checking accounts are relatively stable sources
of deposits. However, the ability of the Company to attract and maintain
certificates of deposit, and the rates paid on these deposits, has been and will
continue to be significantly affected by market conditions.

Borrowings. LSB's other available sources of funds include borrowings
from the FHLB of Indianapolis and other borrowings. As a member of the FHLB of
Indianapolis, the Company is required to own capital stock in the FHLB and is
authorized to apply for borrowings from the
23
<PAGE>
FHLB. Each FHLB credit program has its own interest rate, which may be fixed or
variable, and have a range of maturities. The FHLB of Indianapolis may prescribe
the acceptable uses for these, as well as limitations on the size of the
borrowings and repayment provisions.
The Company utilizes FHLB borrowings as part of its asset/liability
management strategy in order to cost effectively extend the maturity of its
liabilities. The Company may be required to pay a commitment fee upon
application and may be subject to a prepayment fee if the advance is prepaid by
the Company. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $50.0 million in advances
from the FHLB and the capacity to borrow up to an additional $9.8 million. At
that date $32.0 million of such advances have scheduled maturities in 1997;
$15.0 million in 1998; and $3.0 million in 1999.

Subsidiary and Other Activities
Federal associations generally may invest up to 2% of their assets in
service corporations, plus an additional 1% of assets for community purposes. In
addition, federal associations may invest, in an amount up to 50% of their total
capital, in conforming loans to their service corporations in which they own
more than 10% of the capital stock. Federal associations are also permitted to
invest an unlimited amount in operating subsidiaries engaged solely in
activities which a federal association may engage in directly.
The Bank owns a single service corporation, L.S.B. Service Corporation
("LSBSC"). In April 1994, the Company made an initial investment of $51,000 in
L.S.B. Service Corporation when it became a 14.16% limited partner in a
low-income housing project in Lafayette, Indiana, pursuant to a 10 year
commitment totaling $500,000. In February 1995, the Company made a second
scheduled investment of $71,000 in the same project, followed by a third
scheduled investment of $67,000 in February of 1996. During 1996, LSBSC received
$39,000 in tax credit related to its investment in the low income housing
project discussed above and recorded a net profit of $18,000. At December 31,
1996, the Bank's total investment in LSBSC was $189,000.
The Bank formed Lafayette Insurance and Investments, Inc. ("LIII"), an
Indiana corporation, on December 31, 1996. LIII did not engage in any operations
during 1996; however, LIII is expected to begin offering various insurance,
annuity and investment products and services to the Bank's customers during
1997.
Competition
LSB faces strong competition, both in originating real estate and other
loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in originating real estate loans
comes primarily from other savings institutions, commercial banks, credit unions
and mortgage bankers making loans secured by real estate located in Tippecanoe
County, the Company's primary market area. Other savings institutions,
commercial banks, credit unions and finance companies provide vigorous
competition in consumer lending.
The Company attracts all of its deposits through its branch offices,
primarily from the communities in which those branch offices are located;
therefore, competition for those deposits is principally from other savings
institutions, commercial banks and credit unions located in the same communities
as well as mutual funds and other financial intermediaries. The Company competes
for these deposits by offering a variety of deposit accounts at competitive
rates, convenient business hours and convenient branch locations with
interbranch deposit and withdrawal privileges.
There are 12 other savings institutions and banks in LSB's primary
market area. The Company estimates its share of the savings market and mortgage
loans in Tippecanoe County to both be approximately 7%.

REGULATION
General
Lafayette is a federally chartered savings bank, the deposits of which
are federally insured and backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States Government. Accordingly, Lafayette is subject to broad federal regulation
and oversight extending to all its operations. Lafayette is a member of the FHLB
of Indianapolis and is subject to certain limited regulation by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board"). As the thrift
holding company of Lafayette, the Company also is subject to federal regulation
and oversight. The purpose of the regulation of the Company and other holding
companies is to protect subsidiary savings associations. Lafayette is a member
of the BIF and the deposits of Lafayette are insured by the FDIC. As a result,
the FDIC has certain regulatory and examination authority over Lafayette.
Certain of these regulatory requirements and restrictions are discussed
below or elsewhere in this document.
Federal Regulation of Savings Associations
The OTS has extensive authority over the operations of savings
associations. As part of this authority, Lafayette is required to file periodic
reports with the OTS and is subject to periodic examinations by the OTS and the
FDIC. The last regular OTS and FDIC examinations of Lafayette were as of
December 1994 and March 1992, respectively. When these examinations are
conducted by the OTS and the FDIC, the examiners may require Lafayette to
provide for higher general or specific loan loss reserves. All savings
associations are subject to a semi-annual assessment, based upon the savings
association's total assets, to fund the operations of the OTS. Lafayette's OTS
assessment for the year ended December 31, 1996 was $48,000.
The OTS also has extensive enforcement authority over all savings
institutions and their holding companies, including Lafayette and the Company.
This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess
civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to
initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be
initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound
practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement
action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with the OTS. Except
under certain circumstances, public disclosure of final enforcement actions by
the OTS is required.
In addition, the investment, lending and branching authority of
Lafayette is prescribed by federal laws, and it is prohibited from engaging in
any activities not permitted by such laws. For instance, no savings institution
may invest in non-investment grade corporate debt securities. In addition, the
permissible level of investment by federal associations in loans secured by
non-residential real property may not exceed 400% of total capital, except with
approval of the OTS. Federal savings associations are also generally authorized
to branch nationwide. Lafayette is in compliance with the noted restrictions.
26
<PAGE>
Lafayette's general permissible lending limit for loans-to-one-borrower
is equal to the greater of $500,000 or 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus
(except for loans fully secured by certain readily marketable collateral, in
which case this limit is increased to 25% of unimpaired capital and surplus). At
December 31, 1996, Lafayette's lending limit under this restriction was $2.3
million. See "Lending Activities - General."
The OTS, as well as the other federal banking agencies, has adopted
guidelines establishing safety and soundness standards on such matters as loan
underwriting and documentation, asset quality, earnings standards, internal
controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure and compensation and
other employee benefits. Any institution which fails to comply with these
standards must submit a compliance plan. A failure to submit a plan or to comply
with an approved plan will subject the institution to further enforcement
action. The OTS and other federal banking agencies have also proposed additional
guidelines on asset quality and earnings standards. No assurance can be given as
to whether or in what form the proposed regulations will be adopted.
Insurance of Accounts and Regulation by the FDIC
Lafayette is a member of the BIF, which is administered by the FDIC.
Deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC and such insurance is
backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. As insurer,
the FDIC imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct
examinations of and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. It also
may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC
determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the BIF or the
Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF"). The FDIC also has the authority
to initiate enforcement actions against savings associations, after giving the
OTS an opportunity to take such action, and may terminate the deposit insurance
if it determines that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound
practices, or is in an unsafe or unsound condition.
The FDIC's deposit insurance premiums are assessed through a risk-based
system under which all insured depository institutions are placed into one of
nine categories and assessed insurance premiums based upon their level of
capital and supervisory evaluation. Under the system, institutions classified as
well capitalized (i.e., a core capital ratio of at least 5%, a ratio of Tier 1
or core capital to risk-weighted assets ("Tier 1 risk-based capital") of at
least 6% and a risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%) and considered healthy
pay the lowest premium while institutions that are less than adequately
capitalized (i.e., core or Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios of less than 4% or a
risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%) and considered of substantial
supervisory concern pay the highest premium. Risk classification of all insured
institutions will be made by the FDIC for each semi-annual assessment period.
As is the case with the SAIF, the FDIC is authorized to adjust the
insurance premium rates for banks that are insured by the BIF, such as
Lafayette, in order to maintain the reserve ratio of the BIF at 1.25% of BIF
insured deposits. As a result of the BIF reaching its statutory reserve ratio
the FDIC revised the premium schedule for BIF insured institutions to provide a
range of .04% to .31% of deposits effective in the third quarter of 1995. In
addition, the BIF rates were further revised, effective January 1996, to provide
a range of 0% to .27% with a minimum annual assessment of $2,000. The insurance
premiums paid by institutions insured by the SAIF were not adjusted,
27
<PAGE>
however, and remained at the range previously applicable to both BIF and SAIF
insured institutions which was .23% to .31% of deposits. In addition, BIF
insured institutions are required to contribute to the cost if financial bonds
issued to finance the cost of resolving thrift failures in the 1980s. Until the
earlier of the year 2000 or when the BIF and SAIF are merged BIF deposits will
only be assessed at a rate of 20% of the rate for SAIF deposits. The rate
currently set for BIF and SAIF deposits is 1.3 basis points and 6.5 basis
points, respectively.
On September 30, 1996 federal legislation was enacted that required the
SAIF to be recaptalized with a one-time assessment on virtually all SAIF insured
institutions, equal to 65.7 basis points on SAIF insured deposits maintained by
those institutions as of March 31, 1995.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
Federally insured savings associations, such as Lafayette, are required
to maintain a minimum level of regulatory capital. The OTS has established
capital standards, including a tangible capital requirement, a leverage ratio
(or core capital) requirement and a risk-based capital requirement applicable to
such savings associations. These capital requirements must be generally as
stringent as the comparable capital requirements for national banks. The OTS is
also authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these standards on
individual associations on a case-by-case basis.
The capital regulations require tangible capital of at least 1.5% of
adjusted total assets. Tangible capital generally includes common stockholders'
equity and retained income, and certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock
and related income. In addition, all intangible assets, other than a limited
amount of purchased mortgage servicing rights, must be deducted from tangible
capital. At December 31, 1996, the Company did not have any significant
intangible assets.
The OTS regulations establish special capitalization requirements for
savings associations that own subsidiaries. In determining compliance with the
capital requirements, all subsidiaries engaged solely in activities permissible
for national banks or engaged in certain other activities solely as agent for
its customers are "includable" subsidiaries that are consolidated for capital
purposes in proportion to the association's level of ownership. The Bank had no
such excludable investments at December 31, 1996.
At December 31, 1996, Lafayette had tangible capital of $15.1 million,
or 8.23% of adjusted total assets, which is $12.4 million above the minimum
requirement of 1.5% of adjusted total assets in effect on that date.
The capital standards also require core capital equal to at least 3% of
adjusted total assets. Core capital generally consists of tangible capital plus
certain intangible assets, including a limited amount of purchased credit card
relationships. As a result of the prompt corrective action provisions discussed
below, however, a savings association must maintain a core capital ratio of at
least 4% to be considered adequately capitalized unless its supervisory
condition is such to allow it to maintain a 3% ratio. At December 31, 1996,
Lafayette had no intangibles which were subject to these tests.
28
<PAGE>
At December 31, 1996, Lafayette had core capital equal to $15.1
million, or 8.23% of adjusted total assets, which is $9.6 million above the
minimum leverage ratio requirement of 3% as in effect on that date.
The OTS risk-based requirement requires savings associations to have
total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Total capital consists of
core capital, as defined above, and supplementary capital. Supplementary capital
consists of certain permanent and maturing capital instruments that do not
qualify as core capital and general valuation loan and lease loss allowances up
to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Supplementary capital may be used
to satisfy the risk-based requirement only to the extent of core capital. The
OTS is also authorized to require a savings association to maintain an
additional amount of total capital to account for concentration of credit risk
and the risk of non-traditional activities. At December 31, 1996, Lafayette had
no capital instruments that qualify as supplementary capital and $1.5 million of
general loss reserves, all of which currently qualifies as supplementary
capital.
Certain exclusions from capital and assets are required to be made for
the purpose of calculating total capital. Such exclusions consist of equity
investments (as defined by regulation) and that portion of land loans and
nonresidential construction loans in excess of an 80% loan-to-value ratio and
reciprocal holdings of qualifying capital instruments. Lafayette had no such
exclusions from capital and assets at December 31, 1996
In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets,
including certain off-balance sheet items, will be multiplied by a risk weight,
ranging from 0% to 100%, based on the risk inherent in the type of asset. For
example, the OTS has assigned a risk weight of 50% for prudently underwritten
permanent one- to four-family first lien mortgage loans not more than 90 days
delinquent and having a loan to value ratio of not more than 80% at origination
unless insured to such ratio by an insurer approved by the FNMA or FHLMC.
OTS regulations also require that every savings association with more
than normal interest rate risk exposure to deduct from its total capital, for
purposes of determining compliance with such requirement, an amount equal to 50%
of its interest-rate risk exposure multiplied by the present value of its
assets. This exposure is a measure of the potential decline in the net portfolio
value of a savings association, greater than 2% of the present value of its
assets, based upon a hypothetical 200 basis point increase or decrease in
interest rates (whichever results in a greater decline). Net portfolio value is
the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and
off-balance sheet contracts. The rule will not become effective until the OTS
evaluates the process by which savings associations may appeal an interest rate
risk deduction determination. It is uncertain as to when this evaluation may be
completed. Any savings association with less than $300 million in assets and a
total capital ratio in excess of 12% is exempt from this requirement unless the
OTS determines otherwise.
On December 31, 1996 Lafayette had total capital of $16.6 million
(including $15.1 million in core capital and $1.5 million in qualifying
supplementary capital) and risk-weighted assets of $133.6 million (including
$13.6 million in converted off-balance sheet assets); or total capital of 12.44%
of risk-weighted assets. This amount was $5.9 million above the 8% requirement
in effect on that date.

The OTS and the FDIC are authorized and, under certain circumstances
required, to take certain actions against savings associations that fail to meet
their capital requirements. The OTS is generally required to take action to
restrict the activities of an "undercapitalized association" (generally defined
to be one with less than either a 4% core capital ratio, a 4% Tier 1
risked-based capital ratio or an 8% risk-based capital ratio). Any such
association must submit a capital restoration plan and until such plan is
approved by the OTS may not increase its assets, acquire another institution,
establish a branch or engage in any new activities, and generally may not make
capital distributions. The OTS is authorized to impose the additional
restrictions that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations.
As a condition to the approval of the capital restoration plan, any
company controlling an undercapitalized association must agree that it will
enter into a limited capital maintenance guarantee with respect to the
institution's achievement of its capital requirements.
Any savings association that fails to comply with its capital plan or
is "significantly undercapitalized" (i.e., Tier 1 risk-based or core capital
ratios of less than 3% or a risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%) must be
made subject to one or more of additional specified actions and operating
restrictions which may cover all aspects of its operations and include a forced
merger or acquisition of the association. An association that becomes
"critically undercapitalized" (i.e., a tangible capital ratio of 2% or less) is
subject to further mandatory restrictions on its activities in addition to those
applicable to significantly undercapitalized associations. In addition, the OTS
must appoint a receiver (or conservator with the concurrence of the FDIC) for a
savings association, with certain limited exceptions, within 90 days after it
becomes critically undercapitalized.
Any undercapitalized association is also subject to the general
enforcement authority of the OTS and the FDIC, including the appointment of a
conservator or a receiver. The OTS is also generally authorized to reclassify an
association into a lower capital category and impose the restrictions applicable
to such category if the institution is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or
is in an unsafe or unsound condition.
The imposition by the OTS or the FDIC of any of these measures on
Lafayette may have a substantial adverse effect on Lafayette's operations and
profitability and the value of its common stock. Company shareholders do not
have preemptive rights, and therefore, if the Company is directed by the OTS or
the FDIC to issue additional shares of common stock, such issuance may result in
the dilution in the percentage of ownership of the Company.
Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions
OTS regulations impose various restrictions on savings associations
with respect to their ability to make distributions of capital, which include
dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, cash-out mergers and other
transactions charged to the capital account. OTS regulations also prohibit a
savings association from declaring or paying any dividends or from repurchasing
any of its stock if, as a result, the regulatory capital of the association
would be reduced below the amount required to be maintained for the liquidation
account established in connection with its mutual to stock conversion.
30
<PAGE>
Generally, savings associations, such as Lafayette, that before and
after the proposed distribution meet their capital requirements, may make
capital distributions during any calendar year equal to the greater of 100% of
net income for the year-to-date plus 50% of the amount by which the lesser of
the association's tangible, core or risk-based capital exceeds its capital
requirement for such capital component, as measured at the beginning of the
calendar year, or 75% of their net income for the most recent four quarter
period. However, an association deemed to be in need of more than normal
supervision by the OTS may have its dividend authority restricted by the OTS.
The Bank may pay dividends in accordance with this general authority.
Savings associations proposing to make any capital distributions need
only submit written notice to the OTS 30 days prior to such distribution.
Savings associations that do not, or would not, meet their current minimum
capital requirements following a proposed capital distribution, however, must
obtain OTS approval prior to making such distribution. The OTS may object to the
distribution during that 30-day notice period based on safety and soundness
concerns. See "- Regulatory Capital Requirements."
The OTS has proposed regulations that would revise the current capital
distribution restrictions. Under the proposal a savings association may make a
capital distribution without notice to the OTS (unless it is a subsidiary of a
holding company) provided that it has a CAMEL 1 or 2 rating, is not of
supervisory concern, and would remain adequately capitalized (as defined in the
OTS prompt corrective action regulations) following the proposed distribution.
Savings associations that would remain adequately capitalized following the
proposed distribution but do not meet the other noted requirements must notify
the OTS 30 days prior to declaring a capital distribution. The OTS stated it
will generally regard as permissible that amount of capital distributions that
do not exceed 50% of the institution's excess regulatory capital plus net income
to date during the calendar year. A savings association may not make a capital
distribution without prior approval of the OTS and the FDIC if it is
undercapitalized before, or as a result of, such a distribution. As under the
current rule, the OTS may object to a capital distribution if it would
constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. No assurance may be given as to
whether or in what form the regulations may be adopted.
Liquidity
All savings associations, including Lafayette, are required to maintain
an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a certain percentage of the
sum of its average daily balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and
borrowings payable in one year or less. For a discussion of what the Company
includes in liquid assets, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources"
in the Annual Report to Stockholders. This liquid asset ratio requirement may
vary from time to time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions
and savings flows of all savings associations. At the present time, the minimum
liquid asset ratio is 5%.
In addition, short-term liquid assets (e.g., cash, certain time
deposits, certain bankers acceptances and short-term United States Treasury
obligations) currently must constitute at least 1% of the association's average
daily balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and current borrowings.
Penalties may be imposed upon associations for violations of either liquid asset
ratio
31
<PAGE>
requirement. At December 31, 1996, Lafayette was in compliance with both
requirements, with an overall liquid asset ratio of 7.31% and a short-term
liquid assets ratio of 6.36%.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test
All savings associations, including Lafayette, are required to meet a
qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test to avoid certain restrictions on their
operations. This test requires a savings association to have at least 65% of its
portfolio assets (as defined by regulation) in qualified thrift investments on a
monthly average for nine out of every 12 months on a rolling basis. As an
alternative, the savings association may maintain 60% of its assets in those
assets specified in Section 7701(a)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, (the "Code"). Under either test, such assets primarily consist of
residential housing related loans and investments. At December 31, 1996,
Lafayette met the test and has always met the test since its effectiveness.
Any savings association that fails to meet the QTL test must convert to
a national bank charter, unless it requalifies as a QTL and thereafter remains a
QTL. If an association does not requalify and converts to a national bank
charter, it must remain SAIF-insured until the FDIC permits it to transfer to
the BIF. If such an association has not yet requalified or converted to a
national bank, its new investments and activities are limited to those
permissible for both a savings association and a national bank, and it is
limited to national bank branching rights in its home state. In addition, the
association is immediately ineligible to receive any new FHLB borrowings and is
subject to national bank limits for payment of dividends. If such association
has not requalified or converted to a national bank within three years after the
failure, it must divest of all investments and cease all activities not
permissible for a national bank. In addition, it must repay promptly any
outstanding FHLB borrowings, which may result in prepayment penalties. If any
association that fails the QTL test is controlled by a holding company, then
within one year after the failure, the holding company must register as a bank
holding company and become subject to all restrictions on bank holding
companies. See "- Holding Company Regulation."
Community Reinvestment Act
Under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"), every FDIC insured
institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with safe and
sound banking practices to help meet the credit needs of its entire community,
including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish
specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it
limit an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services
that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with
the CRA. The CRA requires the OTS, in connection with the examination of
Lafayette, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its
community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of certain
applications, such as a merger or the establishment of a branch, by Lafayette.
An unsatisfactory rating may be used as the basis for the denial of an
application by the OTS.
The federal banking agencies, including the OTS, have recently revised
the CRA regulations and the methodology for determining an institution's
compliance with the CRA in 1995. Due to the heightened attention being given to
the CRA in the past few years, the Bank may be required to
32
<PAGE>
devote additional funds for investment and lending in its local community. The
Bank was examined for CRA compliance in April 1996 and received a rating of
outstanding.
Transactions with Affiliates
Generally, transactions between a savings association or its
subsidiaries and its affiliates are required to be on terms as favorable to the
association as transactions with non-affiliates. In addition, certain of these
transactions, such as loans to an affiliate, are restricted to a percentage of
the association's capital. Affiliates of Lafayette include the Company and any
company which is under common control with Lafayette. In addition, a savings
association may not lend to any affiliate engaged in activities not permissible
for a bank holding company or acquire the securities of most affiliates.
Lafayette's subsidiaries are not deemed affiliates, however; the OTS has the
discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings associations as affiliates on a case
by case basis.
Certain transactions with directors, officers or controlling persons
are also subject to conflict of interest regulations enforced by the OTS. These
conflict of interest regulations and other statutes also impose restrictions on
loans to such persons and their related interests. Among other things, such
loans must be made on terms substantially the same as for loans to unaffiliated
individuals.
Holding Company Regulation
The Company is a unitary thrift holding company subject to regulatory
oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company is required to register and file
reports with the OTS and is subject to regulation and examination by the OTS. In
addition, the OTS has enforcement authority over the Company and its non-savings
association subsidiaries which also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit
activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings
association.
As a unitary thrift holding company, the Company generally is not
subject to activity restrictions. If the Company acquires control of another
savings association as a separate subsidiary, it would become a multiple thrift
holding company, and the activities of the Company and any of its subsidiaries
(other than Lafayette or any other savings association) would become subject to
such restrictions unless such other associations each qualify as a QTL and were
acquired in a supervisory acquisition.
If Lafayette fails the QTL test, the Company must obtain the approval
of the OTS prior to continuing after such failure, directly or through its other
subsidiaries, any business activity other than those approved for multiple
thrift holding companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within one year of
such failure the Company must register as, and will become subject to, the
restrictions applicable to bank holding companies. The activities authorized for
a bank holding company are more limited than are the activities authorized for a
unitary or multiple thrift holding company. See "--Qualified Thrift Lender
Test."
The Company must obtain approval from the OTS before acquiring control
of any savings association. Such acquisitions are generally prohibited if they
result in a multiple thrift holding company controlling savings associations in
more than one state. However, such interstate
33
<PAGE>
acquisitions are permitted based on specific state authorization or in a
supervisory acquisition of a failing savings association.
Federal Securities Law
The stock of the Company is registered with the SEC under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company is
subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and
other requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act.
Company stock held by persons who are affiliates (generally officers,
directors and principal stockholders) of the Company may not be resold without
registration or unless sold in accordance with certain resale restrictions. If
the Company meets specified current public information requirements, each
affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the public market, without
registration, a limited number of shares in any three-month period.
Federal Reserve System
The Federal Reserve Board requires all depository institutions to
maintain non-interest-bearing reserves at specified levels against their
transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW checking accounts).
At December 31, 1996, Lafayette was in compliance with these reserve
requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed
by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements that
may be imposed by the OTS. See "--Liquidity."
Savings associations are authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve
Bank "discount window," but Federal Reserve Board regulations require
associations to exhaust other reasonable alternative sources of funds, including
FHLB borrowings, before borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank.
Federal Home Loan Bank System
Lafayette is a member of the FHLB of Indianapolis, which is one of 12
regional FHLBs, that administers the home financing credit function of savings
associations. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members
within its assigned region. It is funded primarily from proceeds derived from
the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to
members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures, established
by the board of directors of the FHLB which are subject to the oversight of the
Federal Housing Finance Board. All advances from the FHLB are required to be
fully secured by sufficient collateral as determined by the FHLB. In addition,
all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home
financing.
As a member, Lafayette is required to purchase and maintain stock in
the FHLB of Indianapolis. At December 31, 1996, Lafayette had $2.6 million in
FHLB stock, which was in compliance with this requirement. In past years,
Lafayette has received substantial dividends on its FHLB stock. Over the past
five calendar years such dividends have averaged 8.03% and were 7.67% for
calendar year 1996. For the year ended December 31, 1996, dividends paid by the
FHLB of
34
<PAGE>
Indianapolis to Lafayette totaled $157,000, which constitutes a $77,000 increase
from the amount of dividends received in calendar year 1995.
Under federal law the FHLBs are required to provide funds for the
resolution of troubled savings associations and to contribute to low- and
moderately priced housing programs through direct loans or interest subsidies
targeted for community investment and low- and moderate-income housing projects.
These contributions have affected adversely the level of FHLB dividends paid and
could continue to do so in the future. These contributions could also have an
adverse effect on the value of FHLB stock in the future. A reduction in value of
Lafayette's FHLB stock may result in a corresponding reduction in Lafayette's
capital.
Federal and State Taxation
Savings associations such as the Bank that meet certain definitional
tests relating to the composition of assets and other conditions prescribed by
the Code had been permitted to establish reserves for bad debts and to make
annual additions thereto which may, within specified formula limits, be taken as
a deduction in computing taxable income for federal income tax purposes. The
amount of the bad debt reserve deduction for "non-qualifying loans" was computed
under the experience method. The amount of the bad debt reserve deduction for
"qualifying real property loans" (generally loans secured by improved real
estate) may be computed under either the experience method or the percentage of
taxable income method (based on an annual election).
Under the experience method, the bad debt reserve deduction was an
amount determined under a formula based generally upon the bad debts actually
sustained by the savings association over a period of years.
The percentage of specially computed taxable income that was used to
compute a savings association's bad debt reserve deduction under the percentage
of taxable income method (the "percentage bad debt deduction") was 8%. The
percentage bad debt deduction thus computed was reduced by the amount permitted
as a deduction for non-qualifying loans under the experience method. The
availability of the percentage of taxable income method permits qualifying
savings associations to be taxed at a lower effective federal income tax rate
than that applicable to corporations generally (approximately 31.3% assuming the
maximum percentage bad debt deduction).
Under the percentage of taxable income method, the percentage bad debt
deduction cannot exceed the amount necessary to increase the balance in the
reserve for "qualifying real property loans" to an amount equal to 6% of such
loans outstanding at the end of the taxable year or the greater of (i) the
amount deductible under the experience method or (ii) the amount which when
added to the bad debt deduction for "non-qualifying loans" equals the amount by
which 12% of the amount comprising savings accounts at year-end exceeds the sum
of surplus, undivided profits and reserves at the beginning of the year.
In August 1996, legislation was enacted that repeals the reserve
method of accounting (including the percentage of taxable income method) used by
many thrifts, including the Bank, to calculate their bad debt reserve for
federal income tax purposes. As a result, thrifts such as the Bank
35
<PAGE>
must recapture that portion of the reserve that exceeds the amount that could
have been taken under the specific charge-off method for post 1987 tax years.
The legislation also requires thrifts to account for bad debts for federal
income tax purposes on the same basis as commercial banks for tax years
beginning after December 31, 1995. The recapture will occur over a six year
period, the commencement of which will be delayed until the first taxable year
beginning after December 31, 1997, provided the institution meets certain
residential lending requirements. The management of the Company does not believe
that the legislation will have a material impact on the Company or the Bank.
In addition to the regular income tax, corporations, including savings
associations such as the Bank, generally are subject to a minimum tax. An
alternative minimum tax is imposed at a minimum tax rate of 20% on alternative
minimum taxable income, which is the sum of a corporation's regular taxable
income (with certain adjustments) and tax preference items, less any available
exemption. The alternative minimum tax is imposed to the extent it exceeds the
corporation's regular income tax and net operating losses can offset no more
than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. For taxable years beginning
after 1986 and before 1996, corporations, including savings associations such as
the Bank, are also subject to an environmental tax equal to 0.12% of the excess
of alternative minimum taxable income for the taxable year (determined without
regard to net operating losses and the deduction for the environmental tax) over
$2 million.
To the extent earnings appropriated to a savings association's bad debt
reserves for "qualifying real property loans" and deducted for federal income
tax purposes exceed the allowable amount of such reserves computed under the
experience method and to the extent of the association's supplemental reserves
for losses on loans ("Excess"), such Excess may not, without adverse tax
consequences, be utilized for the payment of cash dividends or other
distributions to a shareholder (including distributions on redemption,
dissolution or liquidation) or for any other purpose (except to absorb bad debt
losses). As of December 31, 1995, the Bank's Excess for tax purposes totaled
approximately $2.3 million.
The Company with the Bank and its subsidiary files consolidated
federal income tax returns on a calendar year basis using the accrual method of
accounting. Savings associations that file federal income tax returns as part of
a consolidated group are required by applicable Treasury regulations to reduce
their taxable income for purposes of computing the percentage bad debt deduction
for losses attributable to activities of the non-savings association members of
the consolidated group that are functionally related to the activities of the
savings association member.
Neither the Company or the Bank have been audited by the IRS during the
last five fiscal years.
Indiana Taxation. The State of Indiana imposes an 8.5% franchise tax on
corporations transacting the business of a financial institution in Indiana,
exempting them from gross income, supplemental net income and intangible taxes.
Included in the definition of corporation's transacting the business of a
financial institution in Indiana are holding companies of thrift institutions,
as well as thrift institutions. Net income for franchise tax purposes will
constitute federal taxable income before net operating loss deductions and
special deductions, adjusted for certain items, including
36
<PAGE>
Indiana income taxes and bad debts. Other applicable Indiana taxes include
sales, use and property taxes.

March 18, 1997
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
We are pleased to send you this annual report containing the results
of our second year as a stock company. To effectively utilize the capital
invested by our shareholders, our strategy continues to be to prudently grow the
size of the Bank. This is being done by increasing our loan portfolio using both
funds deposited by our customers as well as additional borrowings when needed to
take advantage of lending opportunities. The success of this strategy in 1996
was demonstrated as assets increased 16.7% since December 31, 1995, and net
interest income increased 18.9% over 1995.
Our continuing goal is to maximize long-term shareholder value by
appropriately balancing profitability, growth, quality and productivity. We
believe that we can best accomplish this goal as an independent,
community-oriented financial institution. We will continue working to earn the
support of Tippecanoe County and the Greater Lafayette area, investing locally
to stimulate community progress, providing an attractive and stable work
environment, and by using bank staff who are members of this community to make
decisions concerning our customers in this community.
The Company's stock performed well in 1996. We experienced, however, a
small setback in our plan to increase our post-conversion return on equity due
to a loan secured by equipment leases which had to be placed in non-accrual
status. We increased the Bank's allowance for loan losses to provide for our
estimate of the potential loss on such leases and believe 1997 will show an
acceptable resolution to this problem. We're pleased to note that the asset
quality of the remainder of our loan portfolio remains high, with non-performing
loans totaling only 0.2% of total assets.
A primary strategy this year will be to fund more of our new loans
with deposits from our customers and correspondingly less with other borrowings.
To that end, our efforts will be directed toward increasing our market share of
deposits in the community while managing the overall cost of money. We offer a
very competitive menu of deposit products. I invite you, as stockholders with a
vested interest, to give us the opportunity to work with you regarding your
savings and investment needs.
To further enhance shareholder value, we are in the process of
completing our third stock repurchase program. This repurchase involves the
repurchase of over 45,000 shares and should further increase shareholder value.
Overall, our core earnings continue to grow and we look forward to continued
progress.
Thank you for your continuing support.
Sincerely,
/s/ John W. Corey

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
On February 3, 1995, LSB Financial Corp. ("LSB" or the "Company"), an
Indiana corporation, became the holding company of Lafayette Savings Bank, FSB
("Lafayette" or the "Bank"). Lafayette is a federally chartered stock savings
bank headquartered in Lafayette, Indiana. The principal asset of the Company is
the outstanding stock of the Bank, its wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company
presently has no separate operations and its business consists only of the
business of the Bank. All references to the Company, unless otherwise indicated,
at or before February 3, 1995, refer to the Bank.
Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements in this report that relate to LSB Financial Corp.'s
plans, objectives or future performance may be deemed to be forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995.
Such statements are based on Management's current expectations. Actual
strategies and results in future periods may differ materially from those
currently expected because of various risks and uncertainties. Additional
discussion of factors affecting LSB Financial's business and prospects is
contained in the Company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Business Strategy
LSB has been, and intends to continue to be, a community-oriented
financial institution. The primary business of the Company consists of
attracting deposits from the general public and using these deposits to provide
financing for the purchase and construction of residential and other properties.
The Company's results of operations, therefore, are dependent primarily on net
interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on
the Company's loan, mortgage-backed and investment securities portfolios and its
cost of funds, which consists of interest expense incurred on deposits and
borrowings. Net interest income is directly affected by the relative amounts of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates
earned or paid on such amounts. The Company's operating results are also
affected by the level of the provision for loan losses, by the level of
non-interest income, including gains and losses on the sale of loans, and
non-interest expenses. The Company's non-interest expenses consist principally
of employee compensation, occupancy expenses, and other general and
administrative expenses.
Significant external factors impacting the Company's results of
operations include the general economic environment, changes in the level of
market interest rates, government policies, actions by regulatory authorities
and competition. LSB's cost of funds is influenced by interest rates on
competing investments and general market rates of interest. Lending activities
are influenced by the demand for real estate loans and other types of loans,
which are in turn affected by the interest rates
4
<PAGE>
at which such loans are made, general economic conditions affecting loan demand
and the availability of funds for lending activities.
The Company's basic mission is to maintain its focus as an
independent, community oriented financial institution serving customers in its
market area. The Board of Directors has sought to accomplish this mission
through the adoption of a strategy intended to maintain a strong capital
position and high asset quality, manage the Company's vulnerability to changes
in interest rates, optimize the Company's net interest margin and achieve
controlled asset growth. Key components of this strategy have been (i)
emphasizing one- to four-family residential mortgage lending, (ii) supplementing
residential lending with multi-family, consumer and construction loans, (iii)
expanding commercial business lending functions, (iv) emphasizing adjustable
rate and/or short term loans and investments and (v) gradually building its core
deposit base.
The results of the Company's business strategy may be illustrated as
follows:
o One- to four-family loans increased from $69.1 million at
December 31, 1994 to $97.0 million at December 31, 1996.
o Multi-family, land and land development, construction and consumer
loans increased from $18.5 million at December 31, 1994 to
$47.2 million at December 31, 1996.
o Commercial real estate and commercial business loans increased from
$13.3 million at December 31, 1994 to $23.9 million at
December 31, 1996.
o At December 31, 1996, 65.26% of the Company's gross loan portfolio
had adjustable interest rates.
o Non-certificate savings, checking and NOW accounts (excluding
money market accounts and after being adjusted for $6.9 million in
stock subscription funds held at December 31, 1994) remained at
nearly 25% of deposits, decreasing slightly from 24.54% of total
deposits at December 31, 1994 to 24.21% at December 31, 1996.
Financial Condition
The size of the Company's loan portfolio increased from $98.6 million
at December 31, 1994 to $159.2 million at December 31, 1996, an increase of
61.46%. Part of this increase was due to the Bank aggressively seeking to
attract new residential mortgage borrowers. This was accomplished by offering
attractive loan products at competitive rates; establishing good working
relationships with local realtors; and providing efficient, personal service
with all decisions made locally. Another reason for the success of the Company's
strategy was the continued focus on commercial and consumer loan production. The
Company sold $8.0 million of fixed-rate loans in the secondary market in 1995
and $14.3 million in 1996 based upon asset/liability management considerations.
See "-Asset/ Liability Management." Adjustable rate loans were retained in the
Company's loan portfolio. The Company retains the servicing rights on all loans
sold in the secondary market.

<PAGE>
The Company's portfolio of securities and short-term investments
decreased from $17.7 million at from December 31, 1994 to $11.9 million at
December 31, 1996, as maturing securities were used to fund the growth in the
Company's loan portfolio.
Deposit accounts increased by 15.99% or $16.1 million from December
31, 1994 to December 31, 1996, excluding the $6.9 million in stock subscription
funds held at December 31, 1994 in connection with the Bank's conversion to
stock form. Checking accounts with no monthly fees and no minimum balance
requirements attracted new depositors, as well as the Bank's continuing effort
to offer innovative and competitive certificate of deposit products. .
The Company utilizes advances available through the Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") to provide additional funding for loan growth as well as for
asset/liability management purposes. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $50.0
million in FHLB advances outstanding, an increase of $21.5 million from December
31, 1995 and $42.5 million from December 31, 1994.
Shareholders' equity decreased $1.3 million, or 7.04%, during 1996
primarily as a result of the Company's stock repurchases and the payment of
dividends on Common Stock. The Company repurchased 9.00% of its Common Stock,
92,660 shares, under a stock repurchase program completed February 27, 1996, and
5.00% of its Common Stock, 48.235 shares, under a stock repurchase program
completed July 2, 1996. In addition , the Company is currently in the process of
repurchasing an additional 5%, or 45,888 shares, of its Common Stock, and as of
December 31, 1996 has repurchased 15,000 shares under this program. As of
December 13, 1996, a total of 155,895 shares of the Company's Common Stock had
been repurchased at a cost of approximately $2.6 million, or $16.87 per share.
Shareholders' equity to total assets was 9.10% at December 31, 1996 compared to
11.37% at December 31, 1995.
Results of Operations
The Company's results of operations depend primarily on the levels of
net interest and non-interest income and its control of operating expenses. Net
interest income is dependent upon the volume of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities and upon the interest rate which is earned or paid
on these items. The Company's results of operations are also affected by the
level of the provision for loan losses as well as non-interest income.

Rate/Volume Analysis of Net Interest Income
The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest
income and interest expense for the major categories of interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities. The change in total interest income and total
interest expense is allocated between those related to changes in the
outstanding balances and those due to changes in interest rates. For each
category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e.,
changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e.,
changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes
attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been
allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and change due to rate.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 1995 and
December 31, 1996.
General. Net income for the year ended December 31, 1996 was $876,000,
a decrease of $366,000 or 29.47% compared to net income for the year ended
December 31, 1995. This decrease was primarily due to an $800,000 provision for
loan losses, which was recorded by management to cover the possibility of losses
on the $2.4 million of purchased equipment leases placed on non-accrual status
by the Bank during 1996 due to the bankruptcy filing by the Bennett Funding
Group, the originator of the leases. The increased provision for loan losses was
substantially offset by the net of a $910,000 increase in net interest income, a
$716,000 increase in all non-interest expenses and a $174,000 decrease in income
tax expenses.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the year ended December
31, 1996 increased $910,000 or 18.93% over the same period in 1995. This
increase was primarily attributable to the success of management's continuing
efforts to restructure the Company's balance sheet by investing new funds and
shifting existing funds into higher-yielding commercial and consumer loans from
lower yielding investment and mortgage-backed securities. The Company's net
interest margin (net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets)
decreased slightly from 3.56% for the year ended December 31, 1995, to 3.52% for
the year ended December 31, 1996.
Interest income on loans increased $2.9 million for the year ended
1996 compared to the year ended December 31, 1995 primarily the result of an
increase of $35.0 million in average loans outstanding. This increase was
primarily due to an active residential real estate market in 1996 due to
continued relatively low interest rates and a strong local economy, and the
ongoing success of the Company's focus on commercial and consumer loan
production. This increase in volume was slightly offset by a decrease in yield
on loans from 8.38% for the year ended December 31, 1995 to 8.34% for the year
ended December 31, 1996 caused primarily by the increasing competitiveness of
the local loan origination market.
Both the net interest margin and the average yield on loans were
negatively impacted by the placement of the Bennett Funding leases on
non-accrual status effective April 1, 1996. Management estimates that interest
lost during 1996 from those leases was approximately $170,000.
Interest earned on mortgage-backed securities decreased by $53,000 due
primarily to an $848,000 decrease in the average balance of the Company's
mortgage-backed securities.
Interest earned on other investments and FHLB stock decreased by
$316,000 for the year 1996 compared to 1995. This was the result of a decrease
of $7.7 million in the average balance of other investments, primarily due to
the Company's efforts to restructure its balance sheet by channeling funds into
higher yielding loans. The decrease was partially offset by interest earned on a
$1.0 million increase in the average balance of FHLB stock required to
facilitate borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank, as well as by an increase
in the yield on other investments from 5.32% for the year ended December 31,
1995 to 5.57% for the year ended December 31, 1996.
Interest expense for the year ended 1996 increased $1.6 million or
26.83% over the same period in 1995. This increase was primarily due to an
increase of $29.9 million in average interest-bearing liabilities, consisting of
9
<PAGE>
an additional $8.9 million in the average balance of customer deposit accounts
and a $21.0 million increase in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank
advances drawn to fund loan demand. The increase was also due to an increase in
the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities from 4.79% in 1995 to 4.89% in
1996 reflecting the intense competition for deposits, in spite of a decrease in
the interest rate paid on borrowings from 5.91% in 1995 to 5.62% in 1996.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company establishes its provision for
loan losses based on a systematic analysis of risk factors in the loan
portfolio. The analysis includes evaluation of concentration of credit, past
loss experience, current economic conditions, the amount and composition of the
loan portfolio, estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, loan
commitments outstanding , delinquencies, industry standards and other factors.
Because the Company has realized only nominal losses during its recent past,
management also considers the loss experience of similar portfolios in
comparable lending markets, in addition to using the services of a consultant to
assist in the evaluation of its growing commercial loan portfolio. Management's
analysis results in the allocations of allowance amounts for each loan type.
Based on this analysis, during the year ended December 31, 1996 the Company
recorded an $800,000 provision for loan losses primarily in response to the
situation involving Bennett Funding Group (Bennett) of Syracuse, New York
through which the Company owns $2.4 million of equipment leases. On March 29,
1996, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed civil and criminal complaints
against an officer of Bennett and shortly thereafter, Bennett sought Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection. The Bank has been paid interest through March 31, 1996.
Based upon the bankruptcy filing and the uncertainty about when principal and
interest payments might resume, the leases were placed in non-accrual status as
of April 1, 1996 and the Bank has allocated $970,000 of its $1.7 million
allowance for loan losses to these receivables. The Bank's $2.4 million
investment is comprised of numerous small dollar equipment leases. While
management believes that the Bank holds original lease documents, the complaint
alleges various fraudulent actions including that Bennett may have sold the same
leases to two or more buyers. To date management has not been notified of
duplication of any leases it owns. Management is currently evaluating settlement
offers and believes that its reserve allocation will be sufficient to cover any
losses. At December 31, 1996, the Company's allowance equals 1.08% of net loans
receivable. Non-performing loans totaled $2.8 million at December 31, 1996,
representing 1.53% of total assets. The Bank had no non-performing loans at
December 31, 1995.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income for the year ended December
31, 1996 increased by $66,000, or 10.49% over the same period in 1995. This was
primarily due to an $87,000 increase in service charges and fees on deposit
accounts due to the increasing number of these accounts, and a $116,000 increase
in the gain on the sale of mortgage loans in the secondary market, partially
offset by a non-recurring $165,000 state tax refund received in 1995. The
increase in the gain on the sale of loans resulted from the increased sales
activity and a change in accounting for such sales. Beginning in 1996, the basis
of loans sold with servicing retained was allocated between the loan and the
originated servicing right. $129,000 of the $184,000 of gains on the sale of
loans can be attributed to establishing the originated servicing right asset
which will be amortized over the lives of the related loans. In addition, in
December 1996, the Company transferred approximately $10.3 million fixed rate
mortgage loans to the held for sale portfolio. These loans were sold in
December, 1996, and January, 1997, and are part of management's strategy to
further diversify the loan portfolio.

Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense for the year ended December
31, 1996 increased $716,000 over the same period in 1995. The major components
of this increase included a $404,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits
and a $139,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense, offset by a $118,000
decrease in FDIC insurance premiums (since the Bank, unlike most thrifts, is
insured by the Bank Insurance Fund of the FDIC and benefitted from a reduction
in the deposit insurance rate effective June 1, 1995). The increase in salaries
and employee benefits, and occupancy and equipment expenses were incurred in
connection with the opening of the Company's fourth branch. In addition, salary
and employee benefit expenses included expenses related to the Employee Stock
Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), which was formed at the time of the Bank's stock
conversion, and expenses related to the Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP")
which was approved by shareholders in August 1995. These two plans resulted in a
combined expense of $151,000 in 1995 and $233,000 in 1996 and, effectively,
replaced the Company's discretionary contribution to its 401(k) plan which was
$54,000 in 1994. See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
included herein.
Income Tax Expense. The Company's income tax provision decreased by
$174,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to the year ended
December 31, 1995. This was primarily due to the decrease in income before
income taxes.
11
<PAGE>
Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 1995 and
December 31, 1994.
General. Net income for the year ended December 31, 1995 was $1.2
million, an increase of $677,000 or 119.82% over net income for the year ended
December 31, 1994. This increase was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in
net interest income, an $85,000 increase in deposit account service charges and
fees, a $165,000 non-recurring state tax refund related to a change in Indiana
tax law in the late 1980s, and a $108,000 decrease in FDIC insurance expense.
These changes were partially offset by a $565,000 increase in all other
operating expenses and by a $459,000 increase in income tax expense.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the year ended December
31, 1995 increased $1.3 million or 35.91% over the same period in 1994. This
increase was primarily attributable to the success of management's continuing
efforts to leverage the Company by channeling funds into the Company's
higher-yielding loan portfolio. The Company's net interest margin, net interest
income divided by average interest-earning assets, increased from 3.26% for the
year ended December 31, 1994, to 3.56% for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Interest income on loans increased $2.5 million for the year ended
1995 compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 primarily due to an increase
of $25.8 million in average loans outstanding. This increase was primarily due
to the Bank taking advantage of the opportunity to attract new residential
mortgage borrowers to the Bank afforded by an active market for refinance and
purchase residential properties in 1995 due to continued low mortgage interest
rates and a strong local economy, and the ongoing success of the Company's focus
on commercial loan production. This increase in volume was supplemented by an
increase in yield on loans from 8.01% for the year ended December 31, 1994 to
8.38% for the year ended December 31, 1995 caused primarily by the upward
adjustment of the Company's existing ARMs as well as by the increased amount of
higher yielding commercial loans.
Interest earned on mortgage-backed securities increased by $40,000 as
the increase in yield from 4.36% to 6.08% on the primarily adjustable rate
securities more than offset the $1.1 decline in the average balance of the
Company's mortgage-backed securities.
Interest earned on other investments increased by $195,000 for the
year 1995 compared to 1994. This was the result of an increase of $1.3 million
in the average balance of other investments, primarily due to the investment of
stock proceeds upstreamed to the Holding Company, as well as by in increase in
yield from 4.33% for the year ended December 31, 1994 to 5.32% for the year
ended December 31, 1995 due to higher interest rates on securities purchased in
1995.
Interest expense for the year ended 1995 increased $1.5 million or
33.66% over the same period in 1994. This increase was primarily due to an
increase of $17.9 million in average interest-bearing liabilities, consisting of
an additional $3.4 million in the average balance of customer deposit accounts
and a $14.5 million increase in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank
advances drawn to fund loan demand. The increase was also due to an increase in
the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities from 4.19% in 1994 to 4.79% in
1995 reflecting the general increase in interest rates during the period.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Company establishes its provision for
loan losses based on a systematic analysis of risk factors in the loan
portfolio. The analysis includes evaluation of concentration of credit, past
loss experience, current economic conditions, the amount and composition of the
loan portfolio, estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, loan
commitments outstanding , delinquencies, industry standards and other factors.
Because the Company has realized only nominal losses during its recent past,
management also considers the loss experience of similar portfolios in
comparable lending markets, in addition to using the services of a consultant to
assist in the evaluation of its growing commercial loan portfolio. Management's
analysis results in the allocations of allowance amounts for each loan type.
During the years 1995 and 1994, the Company made no additional
provision for loan losses. The Company, during 1994, recovered $15,000 on a loan
that had previously been charged off. The Company had no non-performing loans
(non-accruing plus accruing loans 90 days or more past due) at December 31, 1995
and $45,000 in non-performing loans at December 31, 1994, representing .04% of
total assets.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income for the year ended December
31, 1995 increased by $339,000, or 116.90% over the same period in 1995. This
was primarily due to the previously mentioned $165,000 state tax refund, an
$85,000 increase in service charges and fees on deposit accounts due to the
increasing number of these accounts, and a $55,000 increase in the gain on the
sale of mortgage loans in the secondary market as the Company took advantage of
the relatively stable mortgage loan rates to sell fixed-rate mortgages, thereby
helping to control interest rate risk.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense for the year ended December
31, 1995 increased $458,000 over the same period in 1994. The major components
of this increase included a $312,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits,
an $86,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense, and a $60,000 increase
in other operating expenses. Many of these expenses were incurred filling the
Company's staffing and equipment needs to effectively leverage the Bank. The
Bank also benefitted from a $108,000 decrease in FDIC insurance premiums
resulting from a decrease in the premium charged. The Bank, unlike most thrifts,
is insured by the Bank Insurance Fund of the FDIC and benefitted from a
reduction in the deposit insurance rate effective June 1, 1995. In addition ,
1995's salary and employee benefit expense included expenses related to the
Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), which was formed at the time of the
Bank's stock conversion, and related to the Recognition and Retention Plan
("RRP") approved in August, 1995. LSB records ESOP expense based on the fair
value of the shares earned by participants during the year. During 1995,
participants earned 8,504 shares with a cost of $85,000 and a fair value of
$123,000. The RRP awarded 27,793 share to certain directors and officers of the
Company. The cost of these shares is being amortized over the 60 month vesting
period and totaled $28,000 for 1995. These two plans resulted in a combined
expense of $151,000 in 1995 and, effectively, replaced the Company's
discretionary contribution to its 401(k) plan which was $54,000 in 1994.
Income Tax Expense. The Company's income tax provision increased by
$459,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared to the year ended
December 31, 1994. This was primarily due to the increase in income before
income taxes.

Asset/Liability Management
Lafayette, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest
rate risk to the extent that its interest-bearing liabilities reprice on a
different basis than its interest-earning assets. Office of Thrift Supervision
("OTS") regulations provide a Net Portfolio Value ("NPV") approach to the
quantification of interest rate risk. In essence, this approach calculates the
difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and the
present value of expected cash flows from liabilities, as well as cash flows
from off balance sheet contracts. Under OTS regulations, an institution's
"normal" level of interest rate risk in the event of an assumed change in
interest rates is a decrease in the institution's NPV in an amount not exceeding
2% of the present value of its assets. Thrift institutions with greater than
"normal" interest rate exposure must take a deduction from their total capital
available to meet their risk-based capital requirement. The amount of the
deduction is one-half of the difference between (a) the institution's actual
calculated exposure to a 200 basis point interest rate increase or decrease
(whichever results in the greater pro forma decrease in NPV) and (b) its
"normal" level of exposure which is defined as 2% of the present value of its
assets. The regulation, however, will not become effective until the OTS
evaluates the process by which savings associations may appeal an interest rate
risk deduction determination. It is uncertain as to when this evaluation may be
completed. Furthermore, the Bank, due to its asset size and level of risk-based
capital is exempt from this requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
utilizing this measuring concept, as of December 31, 1996, a change in interest
rates of positive 200 basis points would have resulted in a 1.21% decrease (as a
percentage of the net present value of the Bank's assets) in the Bank's NPV
while a change in interest rates of negative 200 basis points would have
resulted in an .11% increase (as a percentage of the net present value of the
Bank's assets) in the Bank's NPV. Accordingly, the Bank's interest rate risk was
considered normal under OTS regulations and no additional risk-based capital
would have been required at December 31, 1996.
It has been and continues to be a priority of the Company's Board of
Directors and management to manage interest rate risk and thereby limit any
negative effect of the Company's NPV. The Company's asset/liability policy,
established by the Board of Directors, sets forth acceptable limits on the
amount of change in NPV given certain changes in interest rates. The Company has
an asset/liability management committee which meets weekly to review interest
rate positions, and a Board investment committee which meets quarterly to review
the Company's interest rate risk position and other related matters and to make
recommendations for adjusting such position to the full Board of Directors. In
addition, the investment committee meets semi-annually with the Company's
investment advisor to review the Company's investment portfolio and strategies
relating to interest rate risk. Specific strategies have included the sale of
long-term, fixed rate loans to reduce the average maturity of the Company's
interest-earning assets and the use of FHLB advances to lengthen the effective
maturity of its interest-bearing liabilities. In the future, the Company's
community banking emphasis, including the origination of commercial business
loans, is intended to further increase the Company's portfolio of short-term
and/or adjustable rate loans.

Presented below, as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, is an analysis of
the Company's interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV for instantaneous
and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve, in 100 basis point increments,
up and down 300 basis points and compared to Board policy limits. Assumptions
used in calculating the amounts in this table are OTS assumptions.

</TABLE>
In evaluating the Company's exposure to interest rate risk, certain
shortcomings inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table
must be noted. 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. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayments 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. As a result, the
actual effect of changing interest rates may differ from that presented in the
foregoing table.
The Company also makes use of "gap" analysis which measures the
difference between the amount of interest-earning assets which are anticipated
to mature or reprice within a particular period and the amount of interest
bearing liabilities which are expected to reprice in that same period. The
Company relies on certain assumptions, such as the amount and timing of loan
prepayments in the measurement of the interest rate sensitivity gap. Similar
shortcomings to those experienced with NPV analysis are also inherent in the gap
method of analysis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment and
prepayment of loans, interest earned on or maturation of investment securities
and short-term investments, borrowings and funds provided from operations. While
maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans, investments and
mortgage-backed securities are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and
mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by the general market interest
rates, economic conditions and competition.
15
<PAGE>
The primary investing activities of the Bank are the origination of loans
and the purchase of securities. During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995
and 1996, the Bank originated loans totaling $39.9 million, $68.8 million and
$77.7 million respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, these investment
activities were funded primarily by principal repayments and prepayments on
loans and maturities of investment securities totaling $25.1 million, $30.8
million, and $43.8 million, respectively. The proceeds from the sale of loans
totaled $3.0 million, $8.0 million and $14.3 million for the years ended
December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Sales of available-for-sale
securities in 1994, 1995 and 1996 generated proceeds of $1.1 million, $510,000
and $1.8 million, respectively.
The major sources of cash from financing activities in the years ended
December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 were increases in deposits of $7.5 million,
$2.2 million and $7.0 million, respectively. In the years ended December 31,
1994, 1995 and 1996, financing also was provided by net borrowings of $5.8
million, $21.8 million and $20.6 million, respectively. The Bank had available
lines of credit from the FHLB, at December 31, 1996, equal to $1.5 million. The
Bank currently uses, and intends to continue to use, FHLB advances as a source
of funding for loans when advantageous interest rate risk matches can be found.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function for the
Bank's senior management. The Bank adjusts its investment strategy, within the
limits established by the investment policy, based upon assessments of expected
loan demand, expected cash flows, FHLB advance opportunities, market yields and
objectives of its asset/liability management program. Base levels of liquidity
have generally been invested in interest-earning overnight and time deposits
with the FHLB of Indianapolis. Funds for which a demand is not foreseen in the
near future are invested in investment and other securities for the purpose of
yield enhancement and asset/liability management.
The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of liquidity as defined
by regulatory agencies. The liquidity requirement, which can vary, is based upon
a percentage of deposits and short term borrowings and is currently 5.0%. The
Bank's internal policy for liquidity is approximately 8%. The Company's
liquidity ratios at December 31, 1994, 1995, 1996 were 14.35%, 14.04% and 7.31%,
respectively. Proceeds from the sale of fixed rate mortgage loans in early 1997
were used to restore the Company's liquidity ratio to above its policy level.
The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet
current loan commitments. At December 31, 1996, the Bank had outstanding
commitments to originate loans and available lines of credit totaling $15.8
million and commitments to provide funds to complete current construction
projects in the amount of $6.8 million. Certificates of deposit which will
mature in one year or less at December 31, 1996 totaled $43.8 million. Based on
its experience, the Bank's certificates of deposit have been a relatively stable
source of long-term funds as such certificates are generally renewed upon
maturity since the Bank has established long-term banking relationships with its
customers. Therefore, management believes a significant portion of such deposits
will remain with the Bank, although this cannot be assured.
16
<PAGE>
At December 31, 1996, the Bank exceeded all of the OTS capital
requirements on a fully phased in basis. See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for a summary of the Bank's regulatory capital
requirements.
The Company also has a need for, and sources of liquidity. Liquidity is
required to fund its operating expenses, fund stock repurchase programs, as well
as for the payment of dividends to shareholders. At December 31, 1996 the
Company had $797,000 in liquid assets on hand. The primary source of liquidity
on an ongoing basis is dividends from the Bank. Dividends totaling $1.0 million
were paid from the Bank to the Company during the year ended December 31, 1996.
For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company paid dividends to shareholders
totaling $213,000 and repurchased 127,865 shares of common stock at a total cost
of $2.2 million. The Company has regulatory approval to repurchase an additional
30,888 shares of Company stock at December 31, 1996.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto which are
presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principals, which require the measurement of financial position and
the results of operations in terms of historical dollars without considering the
change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The
impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company's
operations. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the Company's assets
and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a
greater impact on the Company's performance than do the effects of the general
levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same
direction or to the same degree as the price of goods and services.
Impact of Accounting Standards
Financial Accounting Standard No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities, was issued by
the Financial Accounting Standards Board 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 is effective for some
transactions in 1997 and others in 1998. Management does not expect the effect
on the Company's financial position and results of operations to be significant.

December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements as of and for the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 include the accounts of LSB Financial
Corp. (LSB or the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lafayette Savings
Bank, FSB (Bank) and the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, LSB Service Corporation
(LSBSC). The 1994 financial statements include the accounts of the Bank and
LSBSC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated.
Stock Issuance and Conversion: On February 3, 1995, pursuant to a Plan of
Conversion adopted May 16, 1994, LSB completed the issuance of 1,029,576 shares
of common stock, at a price of $10 per share raising net proceeds of $9,609. In
accordance with its Plan of Conversion, $4,805 of the proceeds were utilized to
purchase 100% of the stock of the Bank in conjunction with its conversion from a
mutual to a stock form of organization. The transaction was accounted for in a
manner similar to the pooling of interests method of accounting for a business
combination. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the Bank are presented
in these consolidated financial statements at historical cost and earnings per
share have been computed as if the common stock had been outstanding since
January 1, 1995.
Description of Business: LSB operates primarily in the banking industry which
accounts for more than 90% of its revenues, operating income and assets. LSB
generates mortgage and consumer loans and receives deposits from customers
located primarily in Tippecanoe county in Indiana. A substantial portion of the
loan portfolio is secured by single and multi-family residential mortgages.
Use of Estimates: 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
disclosures 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. Estimates
most susceptible to change in the near term include the allowance for loan
losses and the fair value of securities.
Statement of Cash Flows: For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and short-term
investments. The Bank reports net cash flows for customer loan transactions and
deposit transactions and for changes in interest-bearing balances with other
financial institutions.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Securities: Securities are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at
amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them
to maturity. Securities are classified as available-for-sale when they might be
sold before maturity. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value,
with unrealized holding gains and losses reported separately in shareholders'
equity, net of tax. Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in
fair value is not temporary. Premium amortization is deducted from and discount
accretion is added to interest income. Gains and losses on the sale of
available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific identification
method.
Inventory of Loans Held for Sale: The Bank sells a portion of its mortgage loan
production in the secondary market. Whenever loan cost exceeds market value on a
net aggregate basis, a valuation reserve is recorded and the loans are carried
at the lower of cost or market. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the market value
of such loans exceeded their cost. During December 1996, the Bank transferred
approximately $10,282 of fixed rate mortgage loans from the loan portfolio to
the held for sale portfolio. This transfer was done to diversify the loan
portfolio and as part of management's strategic plan to expand the Bank's
consumer and commercial loan portfolios. Approximately 50% of these loans were
sold in December 1996 and the balance in January 1997.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation
allowance, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by
charge-offs less recoveries. Management estimates the allowance balance required
based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio,
information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values,
economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made
for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in
management's judgment, should be charged-off.
Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not
expected. Impairment is evaluated collectively for smaller-balance loans of
similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer, and credit card loans,
and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a
portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the
present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan's existing rate.
Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are delayed, typically 90 days
or more, or when the internal grading system indicates a doubtful
classification.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued): The carrying values of impaired loans are
periodically adjusted to reflect cash payments, revised estimates of future cash
flows, and increases in the present value of expected cash flows due to the
passage of time. Cash payments representing interest income are reported as
such. Other cash payments are reported as reductions in carrying value, while
increases or decreases due to changes in estimates of future payments and due to
the passage of time are reported as provision for loan losses expense.
Recognition of Income on Loans: Interest income on loans is accrued over the
term of the loans. Uncollectible interest on loans that are past due is
charged-off or an allowance is established based on management's periodic
evaluation. Loan fees, net of direct loan origination costs, are deferred and
recognized over the contractual life of the loan as an adjustment to interest
income using the interest method.
Servicing Rights: Prior to adopting Financial Accounting Standard No. 122 on
January 1, 1996, servicing right assets were recorded only for purchased rights
to service mortgage loans. Subsequent to adopting this standard, servicing
rights represent both purchased rights and the allocated value of servicing
rights retained on loans sold. Servicing rights are expensed in proportion to,
and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is
evaluated based on the fair value of the rights, using groupings of the
underlying loans as to interest rates and then, secondarily, as to geographic
and prepayment characteristics. A valuation allowance is recorded to reflect the
impairment of a grouping.
Real Estate Owned: Real estate acquired through foreclosure or
deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure is carried at the lower of cost (fair value at
foreclosure) or fair value less estimated selling costs. Future declines in
value, if any, are charged to operations through a provision for loss on real
estate owned. The costs of holding the real estate are charged to operations
while major improvements are capitalized.
Office Properties and Equipment: Office properties and equipment are stated at
cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by straight-line
and accelerated methods over estimated useful lives.
Retirement Plans: The Bank maintains a profit sharing plan, pursuant to Section
401 of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan covers substantially all full time
employees. Participants may contribute a percentage of their compensation,
subject to certain limits. The plan allows the Bank, at the Board's discretion,
to make contributions.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Retirement Plans (Continued): Coincident with conversion to the stock form of
organization, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
covering substantially all full time employees. The expense recognized as ESOP
shares are earned by participants is based on the fair value of such shares. The
difference between the cost of ESOP shares earned, and their market value, is
reflected as an addition to (or deduction from) additional paid-in capital.
Stock Compensation: Expense for employee compensation under stock option plans
is reported only if options are granted below market price at grant date. Pro
forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share are provided as if the
fair value method of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 were used for
stock-based compensation.
Income Taxes: 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 bases 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.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are
estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully
disclosed separately. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and
other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items.
Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the
estimates. The fair value estimates of existing on- and off-balance sheet
financial instruments does not include the value of anticipated future business
or the values of assets and liabilities not considered financial instruments.
Reclassifications: Certain items in the 1995 financial statements have been
reclassified to be consistent with presentation in the 1996 financial
statements.

NOTE 7 - ADVANCES FROM FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) are due in full at final
maturity, require monthly interest payments and are secured by a blanket pledge
of the Bank's eligible securities and mortgage loans.
At December 31, 1996, the scheduled maturity and weighted average interest rate
of FHLB advances were as follows:
Weighted
Interest Principal
Year Average Balance
---- ------- -------
1997 5.50% $ 32,000
1998 5.89 15,000
1999 5.90 3,000
-----------
$ 50,000
===========
NOTE 8 - NOTE PAYABLE
During 1993, the Bank acquired the property for a second branch from two
individuals. In addition to cash, a ten year mortgage note, secured by the
branch property, was issued in the amount of $328. The note bears interest at an
annual rate of 5.5%. Payments, including interest, are $4 per month with a final
maturity of January 2003.
NOTE 9 - CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
At the time of its conversion to a stock form of organization, LSB established a
liquidation account in an amount equal to its total net worth as of the date of
the latest statement of financial condition appearing in the final prospectus,
which was $8,066. The liquidation account is maintained for the benefit of
eligible depositors who continue to maintain their accounts at the Company after
the conversion. The liquidation account declines annually to the extent that
eligible depositors have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases
will not restore an eligible account holder's interest in the liquidation
account. In the event of a complete liquidation, each eligible depositor will be
entitled to receive a distribution from the liquidation account in an amount
proportionate to the current adjusted qualifying balances for accounts then
held. The balance allocated to the liquidation account is not available for
payment of dividends.

NOTE 9 - CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS (Continued)
The Bank has qualified under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code which
permit it to deduct from taxable income a provision for bad debts that differs
from the provision for such losses charged against income in the financial
statements, if any. This portion of retained earnings is considered to be
restricted because if, in the future, this portion of retained earnings is used
for any purpose other than to absorb bad debt losses, federal income taxes would
be imposed at the then applicable rates. In accordance with Financial Accounting
Standard 109, LSB has not recorded a liability for the portion of the tax
reserve established prior to January 1, 1988, which totals $1,861. At current
tax rates, the tax liability for such amount would be $744.
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
its primary regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional
discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the financial statements. These guidelines and the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action involve quantitative measures of capital,
assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under
regulatory accounting practices as well as qualitative judgments by the
regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. LSB's deposit
insurance premium rate is also based, in part, on these requirements. At
December 31, 1995 and 1996, the Bank's actual and required minimum capital
ratios were as follows:

NOTE 9 - CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS (Continued)
Risk-based capital differs from tangible and core capital due to the inclusion
of the Bank's general valuation allowance which totaled $922 and $1,501 at
December 31, 1995 and 1996.
At December 31, 1996, the Bank's capital ratios result in its being designated a
well capitalized institution.
NOTE 10 - BENEFIT PLANS
The Bank maintains a 401(k) plan for the benefit of eligible employees. Employer
contributions are discretionary. Expense recognized for this plan was $54, $0
and $0 in 1994, 1995 and 1996.
In August 1995, LSB shareholders approved a Stock Option Plan which reserved
102,957 shares of Common Stock for granting options to directors and officers of
the Companies. Under the terms of the Plan, options can be granted at values not
less than the fair market value of the shares at the date of the grant. Options
vest at each anniversary date over a five year period and must be exercised
within ten years of grant.
Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, which became effective for 1996, requires
pro forma disclosures for companies that do not adopt its fair value accounting
method for stock-based employee compensation. Accordingly, the following pro
forma information presents net income and earnings per share had the Standard's
fair value method been used to measure compensation cost for stock option plans.
Compensation cost actually recognized for stock options was $0 for both 1995 and
1996.

NOTE 10 - BENEFIT PLANS (Continued)
In August 1995, LSB shareholders approved a Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP)
that awarded 27,793 shares of stock to certain officers and directors of the
Company. An additional 1,286 shares were awarded during 1996. The stock awarded
under the Plan is restricted as to certain rights at the time of issuance. These
restrictions are removed over a 5 year period. The cost of these shares is
amortized over the vesting period. Expense recorded for the RRP totalled $28 and
$90 in 1995 and 1996.
In conjunction with the conversion, the Bank established an ESOP which purchased
8%, or 82,366 shares, of the stock offered in the conversion. The funds used by
the ESOP to purchase the stock were provided by an $824 loan from LSB which will
be repaid by contributions to the ESOP by the Bank in the future. Pursuant to
the ESOP, the shares are to be allocated to participants annually, over a 12
year period. The ESOP covers substantially all employees and shares are
allocated based upon employee compensation levels during the year. ESOP expense
is based on the fair value of shares committed to be released and, for 1995 and
1996, totaled $123 and $143. During 1995 and 1996, 8,504 and 8,540 shares were
earned by and committed to be released to participants. The number of shares
earned each year is determined by the ESOP loan agreement. Shares no longer
required to be held as collateral for that loan are committed to be released and
are earned by participants. At December 31, 1996, 65,322 unreleased shares with
a fair value of $1,274 were held by the ESOP. The ESOP also held 8,504 shares
which were allocated to participants' accounts and 8,540 shares which were
released for allocation. Dividends paid on shares that are not allocated to
participants' accounts are used to service debt.
NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Bank leases branch and office facilities under operating leases that expire
in 1999 and 2000. Total expense for leased premises was $26, $34, and $54 for
the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996. Future minimum lease payments
at December 31, 1996 are as follows:

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued)
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has loans, commitments and
contingent liabilities, such as guarantees and commitments to extend credit,
which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
condition. The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to the financial guarantees is represented by the contractual
amounts of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policy to make such
commitments as it uses for on-balance-sheet items.
At December 31, 1995 and 1996 these financial instruments are summarized as
follows:
1995 1996
---- ----
Commitments to extend credit:
Fixed rate $ 1,188 $ 1,280
Variable rate 3,386 1,141
Unused portions of lines of credit 9,838 13,413
Standby letters of credit 833 423
The commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established under the contract.
Generally, such commitments are for no more than 60 days. At December 31, 1996,
the fixed rate loan commitments were at rates ranging from 7.5% to 8.375%. The
lines of credit are commercial and home equity lines of credit and are variable
rate.
Since many commitments to make loans expire without being used, the amounts do
not necessarily represent future cash commitments. Collateral obtained upon
exercise of the commitment is determined using management's credit evaluation of
the borrower.
LSB and the Bank are party to various legal actions arising in the course of
business. In the opinion of management, the companies have adequate legal
defenses and/or insurance coverage with respect to these actions and their
resolution will not materially affect the operations or financial position of
LSB or the Bank.
The Bank is party to an agreement with a third party service organization which
provides data processing services to the Bank until the year 2000. Should the
Bank terminate the contract prior to completion of the term, it would incur a
penalty based on 80% of the expected remaining payments under the agreement.

NOTE 13 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period, adjusted, if the effect is significant, for
common stock equivalents. The stock options outstanding are considered common
stock equivalents. To evaluate the potential dilutive effect of these common
stock equivalents, actual weighted average shares outstanding are increased by
the number of shares issuable under the options, assuming full exercise, and
reduced by the number of shares that could, hypothetically, be reacquired using
the proceeds from the exercise of those options. For 1995 and 1996, the dilutive
effect of the stock options was not significant and earnings per share were
computed based upon weighted average shares outstanding which were 958,566 in
1995 and 877,411 for 1996.
Unreleased shares held by the ESOP are not considered to be outstanding for the
purpose of computing earnings per share, whereas shares awarded under the RRP
are considered to be outstanding.
NOTE 14 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
LSB is required to disclose the estimated fair value of its financial
instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the
fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash, Short-term Investments and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock: The carrying
amount of these instruments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Securities: Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a
quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted
market prices for similar instruments.
Loans: The fair value of loans is based on estimates of the difference in
interest rates that LSB would charge borrowers for similar loans with similar
maturities applied for an estimated time period until the loan is assumed to
reprice or be paid. Loan prepayments are considered when estimating the likely
time period until repayment.
Deposits: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money
market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair
value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates
currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances: The fair value of these advances was estimated
based upon the current rates charged for advances with similar terms.
Other Borrowings: The carrying amount of other borrowings is a reasonable
estimate of fair value.
Off-Balance Sheet Items: Carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
These instruments are generally variable rate and short-term in nature, with
minimal fees charged.

Financial Accounting Standard No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities," was issued by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board 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 is effective for some
transactions in 1997 and others in 1998. Management does not expect the effect
on LSB's financial position and results of operations to be significant.
