Item 5. Other Events.

On March 19, 1999, the Board of Directors of The Bank of Kentucky
Financial Corporation, a Kentucky corporation ("BKFC"), announced that it will
be presenting to its shareholders at its 1999 Annual Meeting a proposal to adopt
an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of
authorized common shares from five million to fifteen million. The Board of
Directors expects to declare a three-for-two stock split in the form of a stock
dividend if the shareholders adopt the amendment to the Articles, which also
will eliminate the par value of the company's shares.
