                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

          These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and
          reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
          necessary to present fairly the financial position of United Bancorp,
          Inc. ("Company") at June 30, 2008, and its results of operations and
          cash flows for the six and three month periods presented. All such
          adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The accompanying
          condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
          accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
          purport to contain all the necessary financial disclosures required by
          accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
          America that might otherwise be necessary in the circumstances and
          should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated
          financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31,
          2007 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Reference is made to
          the accounting policies of the Company described in the Notes to the
          Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on
          Form 10-K. Except for the adoption of EITF 06-4, as described in
          "Recent Accounting Pronouncements," the Company has consistently
          followed these policies in preparing this Form 10-Q. The results of
          operations for the six and three months ended June 30, 2008, are not
          necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
          year.

     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

          The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United
          Bancorp, Inc. ("United" or "the Company") and its wholly-owned
          subsidiary, The Citizens Savings Bank of Martins Ferry, Ohio ("the
          Bank" or "Citizens"). For periods prior to July 1, 2007, the
          consolidated financial statements include the Company and its two
          wholly-owned subsidiaries, Citizens and The Community Bank. Effective
          July 1, 2007, the Company merged The Community Bank into The Citizens
          Savings Bank and now operates that market area as The Community Bank,
          a division of The Citizens Savings Bank and operates The Citizens
          Bank, a division of The Citizens Savings Bank. All intercompany
          transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

     NATURE OF OPERATIONS

          The Company's revenues, operating income, and assets are almost
          exclusively derived from banking. Accordingly, all of the Company's
          banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in
          one reportable operating segment. Customers are mainly located in
          Athens, Belmont, Carroll, Fairfield, Harrison, Hocking, and Tuscarawas
          Counties and the surrounding localities in northeastern, east-central
          and southeastern Ohio, and include a wide range of individuals,
          businesses and other organizations. The Citizens Bank division
          conducts its business through its main office in Martins Ferry, Ohio
          and nine branches in Bridgeport, Colerain, Dellroy, Dover, Jewett, New
          Philadelphia, St. Clairsville, Sherrodsville, and Strasburg, Ohio. The
          Community Bank division conducts its business through its main office
          in Lancaster, Ohio and six offices in Amesville, Glouster, Lancaster,
          and Nelsonville, Ohio. The Company's primary deposit products are
          checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary
          lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment
          loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of
          collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate
          and are not considered


                                                                               8

                              UNITED BANCORP, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

          "sub prime" type loans. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid
          from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are
          secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Net interest
          income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets
          and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on
          these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the
          Company can be significantly influenced by a number of environmental
          factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are outside of
          management's control.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

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

     ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

          The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable
          incurred credit losses, 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, the
          nature and volume of 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 losses are
          charged against the allowance when management believes the
          uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. The Company accounts
          for impaired loans in accordance with Statement of Financial
          Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 114, "Accounting for Creditors for
          Impairment of a Loan." SFAS 114 requires that impaired loans be
          measured based upon the present value of expected future cash flows
          discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as an
          alternative, at the loan's observable market price or fair value of
          the collateral. A loan is defined under SFAS No. 114 as impaired when,
          based on current information and events, it is probable that a
          creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
          contractual terms of the loan agreement. In applying the provisions of
          SFAS No. 114, the Company considers its investment in one-to-four
          family residential loans and consumer installment loans to be
          homogenous and therefore excluded from separate identification for
          evaluation of impairment. With respect to the Company's investment in
          nonresidential and multi-family residential real estate loans, and its
          evaluation of impairment thereof, such loans are generally collateral
          dependent and, as a result, are carried as a practical expedient at
          the fair value of the collateral.

          Collateral dependent loans which are more than ninety days delinquent
          are considered to constitute more than a minimum delay in repayment
          and are evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 114 at that time.


                                                                               9

     EARNINGS PER SHARE

          Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the
          weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
          period, less shares in the ESOP which are unallocated and not
          committed to be released. At June 30, 2008, the ESOP held 307,274
          unallocated shares which were not included in weighted-average common
          shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share include the
          dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under
          the Company's stock option plans.

            FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

     STOCK OPTIONS

          The Company maintains a nonqualified stock option plan for directors
          and officers. The exercise price for options granted under this plan
          is no less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the
          date of grant, adjusted for stock splits in the form of a dividend.

          The Company accounts for its stock option plan in accordance with SFAS
          No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which requires that the cost
          related to the fair value of grants of stock options be recognized in
          the financial statements.

          The compensation cost recorded for unvested equity-based awards is
          based on their grant-date fair value. For the six month periods ended
          June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded approximately $9,000 and
          $20,000, respectively, in compensation costs for stock option awards
          that vested in each period. The Company has approximately $89,000 of
          total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested
          equity-based awards granted under its stock incentive plan as of June
          30, 2008, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining
          weighted-average period of 6.6 years.

          No stock options were granted during the six month periods ended June
          30, 2008 and 2007.

          There are no remaining options available for grant under the Company's
          1996 plan as of June 30, 2008. A summary of the status of the
          Company's stock option plan for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and
          2007 is presented below:

            FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

     INCOME TAXES

          The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation 48,
          "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," on January 1, 2007.
          Previously, the Company had accounted for tax contingencies in
          accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5,
          "Accounting for Contingencies." As required by Interpretation 48,
          which clarifies Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," the
          Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position
          only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more
          likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax
          positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount
          recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has
          a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate
          settlement with the relevant tax authority. At the adoption date, the
          Company applied Interpretation 48 to all tax positions for which the
          statute of limitations remained open. As a result of the
          implementation of Interpretation 48, the Company was not required to
          record any liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of January 1,
          2007. There have been no material changes in unrecognized tax benefits
          since January 1, 2007.

          The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal
          jurisdiction, as well as various state jurisdictions. Tax regulations
          within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the
          related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to
          apply. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S.
          federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities
          for the years before 2004.

          The Company will recognize, if applicable, interest accrued related to
          unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in
          operating expenses.

     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

          In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
          issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This Statement defines
          fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and
          expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement
          emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement and should be
          determined based on assumptions that a market participant would use
          when pricing an asset or liability. This Statement clarifies that
          market participant assumptions should include assumptions about risk
          as well as the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset.
          Additionally, this Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy that
          provides the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and
          the lowest priority to unobservable data. This Statement is effective
          for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, or January 1, 2008
          as to the Company, and interim periods within that fiscal year. The
          Company adopted SFAS No. 157 effective January 1, 2008, as required,
          without material effect on the Company's financial position or results
          of operations.


                                                                              13

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

          In September 2006, the FASB ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force's
          (EITF) Issue 06-4, "Accounting for Deferred Compensation and
          Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life
          Insurance Arrangements," which requires companies to recognize a
          liability and related compensation costs for endorsement split-dollar
          life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee
          extending to postretirement periods. The liability should be
          recognized based on the substantive agreement with the employee. This
          Issue is effective beginning January 1, 2008. The Issue can be applied
          as either a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effect
          adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of
          adoption, or a change in accounting principle through retrospective
          application to all periods. The Company adopted Issue 06-4 effective
          January 1, 2008, as required. The Company recorded a liability and a
          corresponding charge to retained earnings totaling $1.0 million to
          recognize the commitment obligation under its split-dollar life
          insurance policies. The Company will recognize expense in 2008
          totaling approximately $133,000 for these policies.

          In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option
          for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an
          Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115." This Statement allows companies
          the choice to measure many financial instruments and certain other
          items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting
          by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in
          reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities
          differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting
          provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value
          measurement, which is consistent with the Board's long-term
          measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This
          Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal
          year that begins after November 15, 2007, or January 1, 2008 as to the
          Company, and interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company
          adopted SFAS No. 159 effective January 1, 2008, as required, without
          material effect on the Company's financial position or results of
          operations.

          In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007),
          "Business Combinations," which replaces SFAS No. 141. The Statement
          applies to all transactions or other events in which one entity
          obtains control of one or more businesses. It requires all assets
          acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest to be
          measured at fair value at the acquisition date. The Statement requires
          certain costs such as acquisition-related costs that were previously
          recognized as a component of the purchase price, and expected
          restructuring costs that were previously recognized as an assumed
          liability, to be recognized separately from the acquisition as an
          expense when incurred.

          SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for
          which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first
          annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and
          may not be applied before that date.

          Concurrent with SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), the FASB recently issued
          SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
          Statements, an Amendment of ARB 51." SFAS No. 160 amends ARB 51 to
          establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling
          interest (formerly known as minority interest) in a subsidiary and for
          the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. A subsidiary, as defined by SFAS
          No. 160, includes a variable interest entity that is consolidated by a
          primary beneficiary.


                                                                              14

            FOR THE SIX AND THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

     A noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, previously reported in the
     statement of financial position as a liability or in the mezzanine section
     outside of permanent equity, will be included within consolidated equity as
     a separate line item upon the adoption of SFAS No. 160. Further,
     consolidated net income will be reported at amounts that include both the
     parent (or primary beneficiary) and the noncontrolling interest with
     separate disclosure on the face of the consolidated statement of income of
     the amounts attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest.

     SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
     those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.

     June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. At June 30, 2008 and
     December 31, 2007, impaired loans of $1.1 million and $1.1 million,
     respectively, had no related allowance for loan losses.

     Interest income of approximately $100,000 and $500 was recognized on
     average impaired loans of $3.9 million and $2.6 million for the six months
     ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Interest income was recognized
     on impaired loans on a cash basis for the six months ended June 30, 2008
     and 2007, respectively.

     At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, accruing loans delinquent 90 days
     or more (including impaired loans of $1.3 at June 30, 2008 and $1.7 million

     During the six months ended June, 2008, the Company recorded expense of
     approximately $28,000 as certain participants in the Company's defined
     benefit plan were paid lump sum distributions from the plan. During 2008 it
     is anticipated that Company will incur approximately $231,000 of additional
     settlement accounting expense under the provisions of SFAS No. 88.

NOTE 4: OFF-BALANCE SHEET ACTIVITIES

     Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters
     of credit and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing
     needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of
     others, as long as conditions established in the contracts are met, and
     usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used.
     Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these
     instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit
     policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including
     obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.

     A summary of the notional or contractual amounts of financial instruments
     with off-balance sheet risk at the indicated dates is as follows:

NOTE 5: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

     Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value
     Measurements." SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
     measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
     SFAS No. 157 has been applied prospectively as of the beginning of the
     period.

     SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell
     an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
     market participants at the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 also establishes
     a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of
     observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
     measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that
     may be used to measure fair value:

          LEVEL 1   Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
                    liabilities

          LEVEL 2   Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as
                    quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted
                    prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs
                    that are observable or can be corroborated by observable
                    market data for substantially the full term of the assets
                    or liabilities

          LEVEL 3   Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no
                    market activity and that are significant to the fair
                    value of the assets or liabilities

          Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for
          instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized
          in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general
          classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation
          hierarchy.

     AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES

          Where quoted market prices are available in an active market,
          securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
          Level 1 securities include highly liquid government agency bonds and
          mortgage-backed securities. If quoted market prices are not available,
          then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices
          of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.
          Level 2 securities include certain collateralized mortgage and debt
          obligations and certain municipal securities. In certain cases where
          Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified

ITEM 2          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discusses the financial condition of the Company as of June 30,
2008, as compared to December 31, 2007, and the results of operations for the
six and three month periods ended June 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in
2007. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included herein.

INTRODUCTION

The Company's net interest margin of 3.96% for the six months ended June 30,
2008, generated an increase of approximately $1.5 million in net interest income
over the same period in 2007. As a result, the Company has experienced an
improvement in earnings per share of 31% for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

We believe the Company's positive results of operations for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 are a result of several factors, including: (1) reductions by the
Federal Reserve in prior periods of short term interest rates; (2) enhanced
service charge income on deposit accounts; and (3) the operational efficiencies
gained from the full integration of our two subsidiary banks. As a result of
previous reductions in short term interest rates by the Federal Reserve, we are
projecting the Company's net interest margin to reflect continued improvements
in 2008. In addition, the increases in service charge income on deposit accounts
for the six months ended June 30, 2008 reflects the continuing positive impact
of the Company's courtesy overdraft and merchant check capture programs, which
programs are expected to enhance revenues for the remainder of 2008. Finally,
the Company's management team has worked aggressively to fully integrate the
operations of the Company's subsidiary commercial banks, which merged under one
charter in July 2007. With the operational efficiencies gained from the full
integration of our two subsidiary banks and the streamlining of our management
and operational support positions, which has reduced time and money spent on
duplicated efforts, we anticipate a continuation of solid earnings improvement
throughout 2008.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used in this document, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are
expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "projected" or
similar expressions are intended to identify "forward looking statements" within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in
economic conditions in the Bank's market areas, changes in policies by
regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the
Bank's market areas and competition, that could cause actual results to differ
materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or
projected. Factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance
and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ
materially from any statements expressed with respect to future periods.

The Company is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that will have
or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on its financial condition,
results of operations, liquidity or capital resources except as discussed
herein. The Company is not aware of any current recommendation by regulatory
authorities that would have such effect if implemented.

The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to
publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date such statements were made or to reflect the
occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.


                                                                              19

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

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management makes certain judgments that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and footnotes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments
are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements,
and as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect
different estimates, assumptions, and judgments.

The procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses
reflect our evaluation of credit risk after careful consideration of all
information available to management. In developing this assessment, management
must rely on estimates and exercise judgment regarding matters where the
ultimate outcome is unknown, such as economic factors, developments affecting
companies in specific industries and issues with respect to single borrowers.
Depending on changes in circumstances, future assessments of credit risk may
yield materially different results, which may require an increase or a decrease
in the allowance for loan losses.

The allowance is regularly reviewed by management and the board to determine
whether the amount is considered adequate to absorb probable losses. This
evaluation includes specific loss estimates on certain individually reviewed
loans, statistical loss estimates for loan pools that are based on historical
loss experience, and general loss estimates that are based on the size, quality
and concentration characteristics of the various loan portfolios, adverse
situations that may affect a borrower's ability to repay and current economic
and industry conditions. Also considered as part of that judgment is a review of
the Bank's trend in delinquencies and loan losses, and economic factors.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is an estimate based on
management's current judgment about the credit quality of the loan portfolio.
While the Company strives to reflect all known risk factors in its evaluation,
judgment errors may occur.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

EARNING ASSETS - LOANS

At June 30, 2008, gross loans were $234.4 million, compared to $234.6 million at
year-end 2007, a slight decrease of $212,000. Management attributes the decrease
in loans to the sluggish loan demand in the markets served.

Installment loans represented 17.2% of total loans at June 30, 2008, and 17.8%
at December 31, 2007. This indirect lending type of financing carries somewhat
more risk than real estate lending, however; it also provides for higher yields.
The targeted lending areas encompass four metropolitan areas, minimizing the
risk to changes in economic conditions in the communities housing the Company's
17 branch locations.

Commercial and commercial real estate loans comprised 58.4% of total loans at
June 30, 2008 compared to 57.3% at December 31, 2007. Commercial and commercial
real estate loans have increased $2.4 million, or 1.8% since December 31, 2007.
The Company has originated and purchased participations in loans from other
banks for out-of-area commercial and commercial real estate loans to benefit
from consistent economic growth outside the Company's primary market area, but
all within the state of Ohio.


                                                                              20

<PAGE>

                              UNITED BANCORP, INC.
                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Real estate loans were 24.4% of total loans at June 30, 2008 and 24.9% at
year-end 2007. Real estate loans decreased by 2.3% or $1.3 million from December
31, 2007. Real estate lending for the six months of 2008 has been slow with
respect to the Company's adjustable-rate mortgage products. As of June 30, 2008,
the Bank has approximately $35.8 million in fixed-rate loans that it services
for a fee that is typically 25 basis points. At June 30, 2008, the Company did
not hold any loans for sale.

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management and the
Board of Directors estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent
in the loan portfolio. The allowance balance and the provision charged to
expense are reviewed by management and the Board of Directors monthly using a
risk evaluation model that considers borrowers' past due experience, economic
conditions and various other circumstances that are subject to change over time.
Management believes the current balance of the allowance for loan losses is
adequate to absorb probable incurred credit losses associated with the loan
portfolio. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were
approximately $140,000, or 5.7%, of the beginning balance in the allowance for
loan losses.

EARNING ASSETS - SECURITIES AND FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD

The securities portfolio is comprised of U.S. Government agency-backed
securities, tax-exempt obligations of states and political subdivisions and
certain other investments. The Company does not hold any collateralized
mortgage-backed securities other than those issued by U.S. government agencies,
or derivative securities. The quality rating of obligations of state and
political subdivisions within Ohio is no less than Aaa, Aa or A, with all
out-of-state bonds rated at AAA. Board policy permits the purchase of certain
non-rated bonds of local schools, townships and municipalities, based on their
estimated levels of credit risk. Securities available for sale at June 30, 2008
decreased approximately $28.3 million, or 17.1%, from year-end 2007 totals. With
the overall decreasing interest rate environment, the Company has experienced a
high level of called bond activity during the first six months of 2008. While
the Company has plans to reinvest a portion of these funds in other
available-for-sale securities, there is lag between the time when bonds are
called and the right investment opportunity is available to the Company.
Proceeds from the called securities were used to repay wholesale borrowings,
which decreased approximately $13.0 million from year end 2007 totals.

SOURCES OF FUNDS - DEPOSITS

The Company's primary source of funds is core deposits from retail and business
customers. These core deposits include all categories of interest-bearing and
noninterest-bearing deposits, excluding certificates of deposit greater than
$100,000. For the period ended June 30, 2008, total core deposits decreased
approximately $7.2 million, or 2.5%. The Company's interest-bearing demand
deposits decreased $2.1 million, or 1.7%, noninterest-bearing demand deposits
decreased $365,000, or 1.7%, while certificates of deposit under $100,000
decreased by $7.1 million, or 6.0%. The Company's savings accounts increased
$2.2 million or 8.0% from December 31, 2007 totals.

The Company has a strong deposit base from public agencies, including local
school districts, city and township municipalities, public works facilities and
others that may tend to be more seasonal in nature resulting from the receipt
and disbursement of state and federal grants. These entities have maintained
fairly static balances with the Company due to various funding and disbursement
timeframes.

Certificates of deposit greater than $100,000 are not considered part of core
deposits and as such are used to balance rate sensitivity as a tool of funds
management. At June 30, 2008, certificates of deposit greater than $100,000
decreased $1.4 million, or 3.6%, from year-end 2007 totals.


                                                                              21

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

SOURCES OF FUNDS - SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE AND OTHER
BORROWINGS

Other interest-bearing liabilities include securities sold under agreements to
repurchase, sweep accounts, federal funds purchased, Treasury, Tax and Loan
notes payable and Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances. In the first six
months of 2008, the Company continued to utilize the FHLB programs to manage
interest rate risk and liquidity positions. The majority of the Company's
repurchase agreements are with local school districts and city and county
governments. As a result of the Company's use of cash flow from called available
for sale securities in 2008, total borrowings, including federal funds
purchased, decreased approximately $12.5 million, or 15.1% from year-end 2007
totals.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NET INCOME

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2008
totaled $0.42, compared with $0.32 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an
increase of 31.3%. In dollars, the Company's net income was $1,928,000 an
increase of $446,000, or 30.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared
to the same period in 2007.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, by definition, is the difference between interest income
generated on interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred on
interest-bearing liabilities. Various factors contribute to changes in net
interest income, including volumes, interest rates and the composition or mix of
interest-earning assets in relation to interest-bearing liabilities. Net
interest income increased 24.8%, or $1,489,000, for the six months ended June
30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007, due primarily to the effects of
decreasing interest rates in the economy, which resulted in a lower cost of
funds during the six months ended June 30, 2008. During the six months ended
June 30, 2008, the Company's net interest margin increased 80 basis points over
the same period in 2007. The primarily reason for the net interest margin
increase is the decrease of 55 basis points in the Company's cost of funds from
3.21% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to 2.66% for the same period in
2008.

Total interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2008, was $13.1 million,
an increase of $67,000, or 0.5%, compared to the same period in 2007.

Total interest expense was $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008,
a decrease of 20.1%, or $1.4 million, compared to the six-month period ended
June 30, 2007. A majority of the Company's cost of funds is tied to the short
end of the yield curve and with the short-term rates decreasing dramatically
since September 2007, the Company's cost of funds has decreased in the first six
months of 2008.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses was $563,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2008, compared to $374,000 for the same period in 2007. The increase in loan
loss provision for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, was predicated upon
the increase in nonperforming loans and consideration of the economic challenges
facing the banking industry.


                                                                              22

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

NONINTEREST INCOME

Total noninterest income is comprised of bank related fees and service charges,
as well as other income producing services provided, gains on sales of loans in
the secondary market, gains and losses on sales of repossessed assets, ATM
income, early redemption penalties for certificates of deposit, safe deposit
rental income, internet bank service fees, earnings on bank-owned life insurance
and other miscellaneous items.

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $1,514,000, an
increase of $71,000, or 4.9%, compared to $1,443,000 for the six-month period
ended June 30, 2007. During the six-months ended June 30, 2008, the increase in
noninterest income was primarily driven by an increase of $49,000 related to a
our merchant capture program that was introduced in late 2007, a $66,000
increase in customer service fees on deposit accounts and a $21,000 increase in
income related to brokerage services, which were offset by a $71,000 decrease in
gains on sales of repossessed assets.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 an
increase of $650,000, or 12.2%, over the six months ended June 30, 2007.
Salaries and employee benefit expense increased approximately $182,000, or 6.3%,
for the period ended June 30, 2008 over the same period in 2007. This increase
was primarily due to normal merit increases, increased incentive awards and ESOP
expenses. Professional fees increased $68,000 for the first six months of 2008
over the same period in 2007. Legal fees for loan collection efforts increased
approximately $52,000 for the first six months of 2008. It is anticipated this
trend will continue for the remainder of 2008. Occupancy expense increased
$57,000, or 9.4% for the period ended June 30, 2008 over the same period in
2007. Increased depreciation expense on computer hardware and software and
related service maintenance was the primary reason for the increase. The
provision for losses on foreclosed real estate increased by $155,000 due to
management's estimate of the net realizable value of a parcel of real estate,
requiring the write-down.

Other noninterest expense increased $63,000, or 7.2%, for the period ended June
30, 2008 over the same period in 2007. No one item accounted for a majority of
the increase in other noninterest expense.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The provision for federal income taxes was $525,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2008, an increase of $275,000, or 11.0%, over the same period in 2007.
The increase was due primarily to the increase in pretax income of $721,000, or
41.6%. The effective tax rate was 21.4% and 14.4% for the six months ended June
30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NET INCOME

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2008
totaled $0.22 compared with $0.17 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an
increase of 29.4%. In dollars, the Company's net income was $1,025,000, an
increase of $261,000, or 34.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2008,
compared to the same quarter in 2007.


                                                                              23

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, by definition, is the difference between interest income
generated on interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred on
interest-bearing liabilities. Various factors contribute to changes in net
interest income, including volumes, interest rates and the composition or mix of
interest-earning assets in relation to interest-bearing liabilities. Net
interest income increased 30.1%, or $917,000, for the three months ended June
30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007, due primarily to the effects of
decreasing interest rates in the economy, which resulted in a lower cost of
funds during the three months ended June 30, 2008. During the three months ended
June 30, 2008, the Company's net interest margin increased 90 basis points over
the same period in 2007. The primary reason for the increase in the net interest
margin was a decrease in the Company's cost of funds of 113 basis points from
3.52% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to 2.39% for the same period in
2008.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses was $395,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2008, compared to $191,000 for the same period in 2007. The increase in loan
loss provision for the three-month period ended June 30, 2008, was predicated
upon the increase in nonperforming loans and consideration of the economic
challenges facing the banking industry.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Total noninterest income is made up of bank related fees and service charges, as
well as other income producing services provided, gains on sales of loans in the
secondary market, gains and losses on sales of repossessed assets, ATM income,
early redemption penalties for certificates of deposit, safe deposit rental
income, internet bank service fees, earnings on bank-owned life insurance and
other miscellaneous items.

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $758,000, a
decrease of $25,000 or 3.2%, compared to $783,000 for the same three-month
period ended June 30, 2007. During the three-months ended June 30, 2008, the
decrease in noninterest income was primarily driven by a decrease of $62,000
related to a gain on the sale of other real estate and repossessed assets in
2007.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense was $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008,
an increase of $275,000, or 10.1%, over the three months ended June 30, 2007.
Salaries and employee benefit expense increased $123,000, or 8.3%, for the
period ended June 30, 2008 over the same period in 2007. This increase was
primarily due to normal merit increases, increased incentive award and ESOP
expenses. Professional fees, mainly collection expenses, increased $17,000 for
the second quarter of 2008 over the same period in 2007. It is anticipated this
trend will continue for the remainder of 2008. Occupancy and equipment increased
$49,000 or 16.8% for the second quarter of 2008 over the same period in 2007.
Increased depreciation expense on computer hardware and software and related
service maintenance was the primary reason for the increase. Stationary and
office supplies increased $34,000 for the second quarter of 2008 over the same
period in 2007. This was due to reorganization of some of the branch offices
filing systems.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The provision for federal income taxes was $300,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2008, an increase of $152,000, or 50.7%, over the same period in 2007.
The increase in tax expense was due primarily to a $413,000, or 45.3%, increase
in pretax income. The effective tax rate was 22.6% and 16.2% for the three
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Internal capital growth, through the retention of earnings, is the primary means
of maintaining capital adequacy for the Company. Shareholders' equity at June
30, 2008, totaled $32.5 million compared to $33.9 million at December 31, 2007,
a $1.4 million decrease. This decrease was due primarily to a $1.0 million
charge to retained earnings from the adoption of EITF Issue 06-4, as previously
discussed in Note 1. Total shareholders' equity in relation to total assets was
7.6% at June 30, 2008 and 7.5% at December 31, 2007. In 2001, our shareholders
approved an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation to create a
class of preferred shares with 2,000,000 authorized shares. This enables the
Company, at the option of the Board of Directors, to issue series of preferred
shares in a manner calculated to take advantage of financing techniques which
may provide a lower effective cost of capital to the Company. The amendment also
provides greater flexibility to the Board of Directors in structuring the terms
of equity securities that may be issued by the Company. Although this preferred
stock is a financial tool, it has not been utilized to date.

The Company has a Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("The Plan") for shareholders under
which the Company's common stock will be purchased by the Plan for participants
with automatically reinvested dividends. The Plan does not represent a change in
the Company's dividend policy or a guarantee of future dividends.

The Company is subject to the regulatory requirements of The Federal Reserve
System as a bank holding company. The Bank is subject to regulations of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the State of Ohio, Division of
Financial Institutions. The most important of these various regulations address
capital adequacy.

The minimums related to such capital requirements are:

LIQUIDITY

Management's objective in managing liquidity is maintaining the ability to
continue meeting the cash flow needs of its customers, such as borrowings or
deposit withdrawals, as well as its own financial commitments. The principal
sources of liquidity are net income, loan payments, maturing securities and
sales of securities available for sale, federal funds sold and cash and deposits
with banks. Along with its liquid assets, the Company has additional sources of
liquidity available to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These
include, but are not limited to, the purchase of federal funds, the ability to
borrow funds under line of credit agreements with correspondent banks, a
borrowing agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and the
adjustment of interest rates to obtain depositors. Management feels that it has
the capital adequacy and profitability to meet the current and projected
liquidity needs of its customers.

INFLATION

Substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities relate to banking
activities and are monetary in nature. The consolidated financial statements and
related financial data are presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). U.S. GAAP
currently requires the Company to measure the financial position and results of
operations in terms of historical dollars, with the exception of securities
available for sale, certain impaired loans and certain other real estate and
loans that may be measured at fair value. Changes in the value of money due to
rising inflation can cause purchasing power loss.

Management's opinion is that movements in interest rates affect the financial
condition and results of operations to a greater degree than changes in the rate
of inflation. It should be noted that interest rates and inflation do affect
each other, but do not always move in correlation with each other. The Company's
ability to match the interest sensitivity of its financial assets to the
interest sensitivity of its liabilities in its asset/liability management may
tend to minimize the effect of changes in interest rates on the Company's
performance.

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There has been no significant change from disclosures included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company, under the supervision, and with the participation, of its
management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the requirements of
Exchange Act Rule 13a-15e. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2008, in timely alerting
them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated
subsidiary) required to be included in the Company's periodic SEC filings.

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting
that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008 that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.

certain emergencies, no distributions are to be made from any account as long as
the participant continues to be an employee or member of the Board of Directors.

credited to the account which have not yet been invested in the Company's stock.
