                       GREAT AMERICAN BANCORP, INC.
        UNAUDITED RESULTS SECOND QUARTER 2000 - YEAR-TO-DATE $495,000

Champaign, Illinois - Great American Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq NMS/GTPS), the
holding company for First Federal Savings Bank of Champaign-Urbana, reported
earnings of $495,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, an increase of
$131,000, or 36.0%, from the $364,000 reported for the same period in 1999.
Basic earnings per share were $0.45 in 2000, compared to $0.30 in 1999, while
fully diluted earnings per share were $0.44 in 2000, compared to $0.29 in
1999.

Net interest income was $2,922,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000,
compared to $2,827,000 for the first six months in 1999, an increase of
$95,000 or 3.4%.  The provision for loan losses was $150,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and $273,000 for the same period in 1999.  The
higher provision in 1999 was primarily due to an increase in the monthly
provision for loan losses during 1999, mainly the result of a commercial loan
totaling $1.35 million becoming non-performing in late 1998.  The company
charged-off $800,000 of this loan during the fourth quarter of 1999.

Noninterest income totaled $827,000 in 2000, $45,000, or 5.8%, higher than the
$782,000 recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  This increase was
due primarily to an increase in insurance sales commissions, which totaled
$372,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $341,000 for the
same period in 1999.  Noninterest expense was $2,782,000 in 2000, $64,000, or
2.4%, higher than the $2,718,000 reported for the six months ended June 30,
1999.

Net income totaled $216,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, compared to
$152,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.  Basic earnings per share for
the second quarter of 2000 were $0.20 in 2000, compared to $0.12 in 1999,
while fully diluted earnings per share were $0.20 in 2000, compared to $0.12
in 1999.

Total assets at June 30, 2000 were $155.2 million, an increase of $900,000
from total assets of $154.3 million at December 31, 1999.
