SKY FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.


Notes to Consolidated Financial Information  (Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)


1.   Accounting Policies

Sky Financial Group, Inc. (the Company) is a bank holding company
headquartered in Bowling Green, Ohio, which owns and operates three banks
primarily engaged in the commercial banking business.  The Company also
operates businesses relating to collection services, broker-dealer operations,
insurance, commercial finance lending, and other financial related services.

The accounting and reporting policies followed by Sky Financial Group, Inc.
conform to generally accepted accounting principles and to general practices
within the financial services industry.  The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements.  Actual results could
differ from those estimates.  The allowance for loan losses and fair values of
financial instruments are particularly subject to change.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of
Sky Bank, Mid Am Bank, The Ohio Bank (Ohio Bank), Sky Asset Management
Services, Inc. (SAMSI), Sky Investments, Inc. (SII), Sky Financial Solutions,
Inc. (SFSI), Mid Am Financial Services, Inc. (MAFSI), Sky Insurance Agency,
Inc. (Sky Insurance), Picton Cavanaugh, Inc. (Picton Cavanaugh), Mid Am Private
Trust, N.A. (MAPT), Sky Technology Resources, Inc. (Sky Tech), Mid Am Capital
Trust I (MACT) and various other insignificant subsidiaries.  All significant
intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.


2.  New Accounting Pronouncements

Beginning January 1, 2001, a new accounting standard will require all
derivatives to be recorded at fair value.  Unless designated as hedges,
changes in these fair values will be recorded in the income statement.  Fair
value changes involving hedges will generally be recorded by offsetting gains
and losses on the hedge and on the hedged item, even if the fair value of the
hedged item is not otherwise recorded.  Based on the current portfolio, this
standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements, but the effect will depend on derivative holdings when this
standard applies.

Mortgage loans originated in mortgage banking are converted into securities on
occasion.  A new accounting standard for 1999 allows classifying these
securities as available for sale, trading, or held to maturity, instead of the
current requirement to classify as trading.  This standard is not expected to
have a material effect on the Company's financial statements, but the effect
will vary depending on the level and  designation of securitizations as well as
on market price movements.

7.  Capital Resources

The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) has established risk-based capital guidelines
that must be observed by bank holding companies and banks.  Under these
guidelines, total qualifying capital is categorized into two components:
Tier I and Tier II capital.  Tier I capital generally consists of common
shareholders' equity, perpetual preferred stock (subject to limitations) and
minority interests in subsidiaries.  Subject to limitations, Tier II capital
includes certain other preferred stock and debentures, and a portion of the
reserve for credit losses.  These ratios are expressed as a percentage of
risk-adjusted assets, which include various risk-weighted percentages of
off-balance sheet exposures, as well as assets on the balance sheet.  The FRB
regulations governing the various capital ratios do not recognize the effects
of SFAS 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities" on capital relating to changes in market value of securities
available for sale.

At June 30, 1999, a minimum Tier I capital ratio of 4.00% and a total capital
ratio of 8.00% were required.  The Company's qualifying capital at June 30,
1999 exceeded both the Tier I and Tier II risk-based capital guidelines.  In
addition, a capital leverage ratio is used in connection with the risk-based
capital standards which is defined as Tier I capital divided by total average
assets adjusted for certain items.  Included in Tier I capital are $23,600 of
10.20% capital securities issued by the Company through a special purpose trust
subsidiary in 1997.  The following table presents the various capital and
leverage ratios of the Company.

                                   June 30, 1999      December 31, 1998

In October, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized management
to undertake purchases of up to 1,980,000 shares of the Company's outstanding
common stock over a twelve month period in the open market or in privately
negotiated transactions.  The shares reacquired are held as treasury stock and
reserved for use in the Company's stock option plan and for future stock
dividend declarations.  As of June 30, 1999, the Company had repurchased
approximately 310,000 shares of common stock pursuant to its 1998 repurchase
program.  Subsequent to June 30, 1999, the Company has repurchased 128,000
additional shares of common stock.


8.  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per
share is computed using the weighted average number of shares determined for
the basic computation plus the number of shares of common stock that would be
issued assuming all contingently issuable shares having a dilutive effect on
earnings per share were outstanding for the period.

The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic and diluted
earnings per share computations were as follows:

9.  Line of Business Reporting

The Company manages and operates two major lines of business: Community
Banking and Financial Service Affiliates.  Community Banking includes lending
and related services to businesses and consumers, mortgage banking, deposit-
gathering and institutional trust services.  Financial Service Affiliates
consist of non-banking companies engaged in commercial finance lending and
leasing, broker/dealer operations, insurance, non-conforming mortgage lending,
collection activities, wealth management and other financial related services.
The business lines are identified by the entities through which the product or
service is delivered.

The reported line of business results reflect the underlying core operating
performance within the business units.  Parent and Other is comprised of the
parent company and several smaller business units.  It includes the net
funding cost of the parent company and intercompany eliminations.  Expenses
for centrally provided services and support are fully allocated based
principally upon estimated usage of services.  All significant non-recurring
items of income and expense company-wide are included in Parent and Other.
Substantially all of the Company's assets are part of the Community Banking
line of business.  Prior periods have been presented to conform with current
reporting methodologies.  Selected segment information is included in the
following tables.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis and Statistical Information


(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)


Three Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998


Results of Operations

Net income for the second quarter of 1999 was $20,345, an increase of $4,941
or 32% over the second quarter of 1998 earnings of $15,404.  Diluted earnings
per common share for the second quarter of 1999 was $.45 ($.45 basic), up 32%
when compared to $.34 ($.34 basic) for the same period in 1998.  Return on
average equity (ROE) for the second quarter of 1999 was 23.01% while return on
average assets (ROA) was 1.73%.  This compares to ROE and ROA ratios of 16.68%
and 1.32%, respectively, for the second quarter of 1998.  Reported net income
for the second quarter of 1998 includes after-tax non-recurring items which
reduced net income $593 or $.01 per diluted share.

Operating earnings, which exclude the after-tax non-recurring items, increased
$4,348 or 27% to $20,345 for the second quarter of 1999 as compared to $15,997
for the same period in 1998.  Operating earnings per diluted share for 1999
increased 29% to $.45 from $.35 in 1998.  On this same basis, ROE was 23.01%
and ROA was 1.73% in 1999 compared to 17.33% and 1.37%, respectively, in 1998.

Business Line Results

Sky Financial Group, Inc. is managed along two major lines of business: the
community banking group and the financial service affiliates.  The community
banking group is comprised of the Company's three commercial banks: Sky Bank,
Mid Am Bank and Ohio Bank.  The financial service affiliates include the
Company's non-banking subsidiaries, which operate businesses relating to
commercial finance lending and leasing, broker-dealer operations, insurance,
non-conforming mortgage lending, collection activities, wealth management and
other financial related services.

The Company's business line results for the second quarter ended June 30, 1999
and 1998 are summarized in the table below.

                                           Net Income (Loss)
Quarter ended June 30,                   1999            1998

Community Banking                     $ 20,426        $ 16,332
Financial Service Affiliates               135             425
Parent and Other                          (216)         (1,353)
Consolidated                          $ 20,345        $ 15,404


The increase in community banking net income in 1999 was primarily due to
reductions in non-interest expense.  The efficiency ratio was 46.8% for the
second quarter of 1999 compared to 55.7% in the second quarter of 1998.
The 1999 community banking results reflect a ROE of 25.25% and a ROA of 1.78%
compared to 17.98% and 1.42%, respectively, in the second quarter of 1998.

The financial service affiliates' earnings reflect the Company's continued
investment in the development and growth of these businesses.  While earnings
remain modest, revenues have grown 12% in 1999.

Parent and other includes the net funding costs of the parent company and all
significant non-recurring items of income and expense.  The second quarter 1998
results included a one-time recovery of $1,475 ($1,412 after tax), a
non-recurring provision for credit losses of $2,000 ($1,300 after tax) and
merger, integration and restructuring costs of $972 ($705 after tax).


Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased $513 to $47,560 in the second quarter of 1999 as
compared to $47,047 for the same period in 1998.  Net interest income, the
difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and
interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the most
significant component of the Company's earnings.  Net interest income is
affected by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  The Company's net interest margin
for the three months ended June 30, 1999 remained level at 4.45% as compared to
the same period in 1998, and increased from 4.40% in the first quarter of 1999.



<PAGE 16>

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses represents the charge to income necessary to
adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents  management's
assessment of the estimated probable credit losses inherent in the Company's
loan portfolio which have been incurred at each balance sheet date.  The
provision for credit losses decreased $1,689 or 38% to $2,722 in the second
quarter of 1999 compared to $4,411 in the second quarter of 1998.  The higher
provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 1998 was attributable to
the recognition of changes in risk factors and the Company's application of its
allowance for credit losses methodology (see discussion under "Asset Quality"),
primarily in a newly merged bank.  The Company estimates the additional
provision for credit losses in the newly merged bank was $2,000.  Net charge-
offs were $2,678 or 0.32% (annualized) of average loans during the three months
ended June 30, 1999, compared to $1,728 or 0.22% (annualized) for the same
period in 1998.

  non-performing loans            448.21         431.68          399.67



Other Income

The increase in other income reflects the emphasis of the Company on
expanding its fee-based businesses, diversifying its revenue sources and
adding to profitability beyond traditional banking products and services.
Other income for the second quarter of 1999 was $26,163, an increase of
$2,405 or 10% from the $23,758 for the same quarter of 1998 excluding a $1,475
favorable legal settlement.  The increase was primarily due to an increase of
$394 in service charges and fees on deposit accounts, an increase of $1,836 in
brokerage and insurance commissions, and an increase of $507 in value in bank
owned life insurance.  The increases were partially offset by a decrease of
$518 in collection agency fees, a decrease of $555 in mortgage banking revenue
and a decrease of $837 in net gains on sales of commercial financing loans at
SFSI.  The increase in brokerage and insurance commissions was primarily due to
the acquisition of Picton Cavanaugh in the second quarter of 1999 and increased
volumes.  The increase in value in bank owned life insurance was due to the
purchase of approximately $22,690 in additional life insurance.  The decrease
in collection agency fees was primarily due to a reorganization of the
collection agency business.  The decreases in mortgage banking revenue and net
gains on sales of commercial financing loans were due to lower volumes and
rising interest rates.







<PAGE 17>

Other Expense

Other expense for the second quarter of 1999 was $41,431, a decrease of
$4,273 or 9% from the $45,704 reported for the same quarter of 1998.  The
decrease resulted from a $4,047, or 9% reduction in core operating expenses,
a $972 non-recurring merger and restructuring charge in the prior year,
partially offset by operating expenses of the newly acquired Picton Cavanaugh.
Salaries and employee benefits which comprise the largest component of other
expense decreased 5% in the second quarter of 1999 due to savings realized from
the consolidation of ten previously separate banks into three banking units and
elimination of duplicate positions.  Occupancy and equipment expense increased
$174 or 3%.  Brokerage commissions increased due to an increase in the volume
of transactions for the second quarter of 1999 as compared to the same period
for 1998.  Other expenses decreased $2,283 or 15% to $12,846 in 1999 from
$15,129 in 1998.  The decrease in other expenses was primarily due to
efficiencies realized from the conversion and integration of systems and
processes within the Company.


Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 1999 increased $2,464,
or 36%, to $9,225 compared to $6,761 for the same period in 1998 due to an
increase in pre-tax income.  The effective tax rate for the second quarter of
1999 was 31.2% as compared to 30.5% for the same period in 1998.





Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998


Results of Operations

Net income for the first half of 1999 was $40,509, an increase of $11,888 or
42% over the first half of 1998 earnings of $28,621.  Diluted earnings per
common share for the first half of 1999 was $.89 ($.90 basic), up 43% when
compared to $.62 ($.63 basic) for the same period in 1998.  Return on average
equity for the first half of 1999 was 23.17% while return on average assets was
1.73%.  This compares to ROE and ROA ratios of 15.44% and 1.25%, respectively,
for the first half of 1998.  Reported net income for the first half of 1998
includes after-tax non-recurring items which reduced net income $3,443 or $.08
per diluted share.

Operating earnings, which exclude the after-tax non-recurring items, increased
$8,445 or 26% to $40,509 for the first half of 1999 as compared to $32,064 for
the same period in 1998.  Operating earnings per diluted share for 1999
increased 27% to $.89 from $.70 in 1998.  On this same basis, ROE was 23.17%
and ROA was 1.73% in 1999 compared to 17.30% and 1.40%, respectively, in 1998.

The Company's business line results for the six months ended June 30, 1999
and 1998 are summarized in the table below.

                                           Net Income (Loss)
Six Months Ended June 30,                1999            1998

Community Banking                     $ 40,497        $ 32,888

Consolidated                          $ 40,509        $ 28,621


The increase in community banking net income in 1999 was primarily due to
reductions in non-interest expense.  The efficiency ratio was 46.8% for the
first half of 1999 compared to 56.0% in the first half of 1998.  The 1999
community banking results reflect a ROE of 25.50% and a ROA of 1.75% compared
to 18.37% and 1.45%, respectively, in the first half of 1998.

The financial service affiliates' earnings reflect the Company's continued
investment in the development and growth of these businesses.  While earnings
remain modest, revenues have grown 14% in 1999.

Parent and other includes the net funding costs of the parent company and all
significant non-recurring items of income and expense.  The first half 1998
results included a one-time recovery of $1,475 ($1,412 after tax), a
non-recurring provision for credit losses of $2,000 ($1,300 after tax) and
merger, integration and restructuring costs of $4,904 ($3,555 after tax).


Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased $1,228 to $93,944 in the first half of 1999 as
compared to $92,716 for the same period in 1998.  Net interest income, the
difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and
interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the most
significant component of the Company's earnings.  Net interest income is
affected by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  The Company's net interest margin
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased to 4.42 in 1999 as compared to
4.44% for the same period in 1998.  The decline in the net interest margin is
primarily due to lower yields on earning assets, while funding costs were
basically flat, as increased reliance on higher cost borrowings offset the
benefit of lower deposit costs.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses represents the charge to income necessary to
adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents management's
assessment of the estimated probable credit losses inherent in the Company's
loan portfolio which have been incurred at each balance sheet date.  The
provision for credit losses decreased $1,305 or 20% to $5,082 in the first
half of 1999 compared to $6,387 in the first half of 1998.  The higher
provision for credit losses in the first half of 1998 was attributable to the
recognition of changes in risk factors and the Company's application of its
allowance for credit losses methodology (see discussion under "Asset Quality"),
primarily in a newly merged bank.  The Company estimates the additional
provision for credit losses in the newly merged bank was $2,000.  Net charge-
offs were $3,897 or 0.23% (annualized) of average loans during the six months
ended June 30, 1999, compared to $2,588 or 0.16% (annualized) for the same
period in 1998.


Other Income

The increase in other income reflects the emphasis of the Company on
expanding its fee-based businesses, diversifying its revenue sources and
adding to profitability beyond traditional banking products and services.
Other income for the first half of 1999 was $50,672, an increase of
$3,882 or 8% from the $46,790 for the same period of 1998 excluding a $1,475
favorable legal settlement.  The increase was primarily due to an increase of
$1,013 in service charges and fees on deposit accounts, an increase of $2,502
in brokerage and insurance commissions, and an increase of $1,040 in value in
bank owned life insurance.  The increases were partially offset by a decrease
of $1,316 in collection agency fees and a decrease of $805 in mortgage banking
revenue.  The increase in  brokerage and insurance commissions was primarily
due to the acquisition of Picton Cavanaugh in the second quarter of 1999 and
increased volumes.  The increase in value in bank owned life insurance was due
to the purchase of approximately $22,690 in additional life insurance.  The
decrease in collection agency fees was primarily due to a reorganization of the
collection agency business.  The decrease in mortgage banking revenue was due
to lower volumes and rising interest rates.


Other Expense

Other expense for the first half of 1999 was $80,372, a decrease of $12,893 or
14% from the $93,265 reported for the same period of 1998.  The decrease
resulted from a $8,735, or 10% reduction in core operating expenses, a $4,904
non-recurring merger and restructuring charge in the prior year, partially
offset by operating expenses of the newly acquired Picton Cavanaugh.
Salaries and employee benefits which comprise the largest component of other
expense decreased 7% in the first half of 1999 due to savings realized from the
consolidation of ten previously separate banks into three banking units and
elimination of duplicate positions.  Occupancy and equipment expense increased
$290 or 2%.  Brokerage commissions increased due to an increase in the volume
of transactions for the first half of 1999 as compared to the same period for
1998.  Other expenses decreased $5,120 or 17% to $24,372 in 1999 from $29,492
in 1998.  The decrease in other expenses was primarily due to efficiencies
realized from the conversion and integration of systems and processes within
the Company.


<PAGE 20>

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the first half of 1999 increased $5,945,
or 47%, to $18,653 compared to $12,708 for the same period in 1998 due to an
increase in pre-tax income.  The effective tax rate for the first half of 1999
was 31.5% as compared to 30.7% for the same period in 1998.

The Ohio Bank and Mid Am Bank have outstanding lease receivables and loans
with an aggregate outstanding balance at June 30, 1999 of $442 to The
Bennett Funding Group, Inc. and related entities (Bennett) which remain
subject to the Bennett bankruptcy proceeding commenced in March 1998.  In
December 1997 and January 1998, the bankruptcy judge ruled that The Ohio Bank
and Mid Am Bank, respectively, were secured creditors with respect to certain
of their outstanding Bennett portfolios.  These decisions have been appealed
by the bankruptcy trustee and the appeals are pending.  No decision has been
rendered with respect to $442 in loans from The Ohio Bank and Mid Am Bank
which present different issues from the issues rendered by the bankruptcy
judge.  The Bennett loans are included in non-accrual loans.

Loans now current but where some concerns exist as to the ability of the
borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms, excluding non-performing
loans, approximated $17,567 and $23,168 at June 30, 1999 and December 31,
1998, respectively, and are being closely monitored by management and the
Boards of Directors of the subsidiaries.  The classification of these loans,
however, does not imply that management expects losses on each of these

<PAGE 21>

loans, but rather that a higher level of scrutiny is prudent under the
circumstances.  The decrease in loans where some concern exists is primarily
attributable to the Company's continuous process of loan review, which has
identified various improvements in the financial condition of certain of the
individual borrowers.  In the opinion of management, these loans require
close monitoring despite the fact that they are performing according to their
terms.  Such classifications relate to specific concerns relating to each
individual borrower and do not relate to any concentrated risk elements common
to all loans in this group.

As of June 30, 1999, the Company did not have any loan concentrations which
exceeded 10% of total loans.

The following table presents a summary of the Company's credit loss experience
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses at a level adequate to
absorb management's estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan
portfolio.  The allowance is comprised of a general allowance, a specific
allowance for identified problem loans and an unallocated allowance.



<PAGE 22>

The general allowance is determined by applying estimated loss factors to the
credit exposures from outstanding loans.  For construction, commercial and
commercial real estate loans, loss factors are applied based on internal risk
grades of these loans.  For residential real estate, installment, credit card
and other loans, loss factors are applied on a portfolio basis.  Loss factors
are based on peer and industry loss data compared to the Company's historical
loss experience, and are reviewed for correction on a quarterly basis, along
with other factors affecting the collectability of the loan portfolio.

Specific allowances are established for all criticized and classified loans,
where management has determined that, due to identified significant
conditions, the probability that a loss has been incurred exceeds the general
allowance loss factor determination for those loans.

The unallocated allowance both recognizes the estimation risk associated with
the allocated general and specific allowances and incorporates management's
evaluation of existing conditions that are not included in the allocated
allowance determinations.  These conditions are reviewed quarterly by
management and include general economic conditions, credit quality trends,
recent loss experience, bank regulatory examination results, and internal loan
review examination findings.

The following table sets forth the Company's allocation of the allowance for
credit losses as of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

                               June 30, 1999     December 31, 1998

  Other loans                      1,324               1,820
  Unallocated                     16,641              15,214
    Total                        $55,193             $54,008



Liquidity

The liquidity of a financial institution reflects its ability to provide funds
to meet requests, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take
advantage of interest rate market opportunities.  Funding of loan requests,
providing for liability outflows, and management of interest rate fluctuations
require continuous analysis in order to match the maturities of specific
categories of short-term loans and investments with specific types of deposits
and borrowings.  Financial institution liquidity is this normally considered in
terms of the nature and mix of the institution's sources and uses of funds.

The Company's banking subsidiaries maintain adequate liquidity primarily
through the use of investment securities and unused borrowing capacity, in
addition to maintaining a stable core deposit base.  At June 30, 1999,
securities and other short-term investments with maturities of one year or
less totaled $109,584, with additional liquidity provided by the remainder of
the investment portfolio.  The banks utilize several short-term and long-term


<PAGE 23>

borrowing sources.  Each of the banking subsidiaries is a member of the
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and have lines of credit with the FHLB.  At
June 30, 1999, these lines of credit enable the banks to borrow up to
$528,575, of which $281,062 is currently outstanding.

Since the Company is a holding company and does not conduct operations, its
primary sources of liquidity are borrowings from outside sources and dividends
paid to it by its subsidiaries.  For the banking subsidiaries, regulatory
approval is required in order to pay dividends in excess of the subsidiaries'
earnings retained for the current year plus retained net profits for the prior
two years.  As a result of these restrictions, dividends which could be paid
to the Company by its bank subsidiaries were limited to $4,616 at June 30,1999.

In March, 1999, the Company renegotiated an agreement with unrelated financial
institutions which enabled the Company to borrow up to $75,000 through
March 8, 2000.  At June 30, 1999, the Company had borrowings of $48,000
under this agreement.


Asset/Liability Management

Closely related to liquidity management is the management of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  The Company manages its rate
sensitivity position to avoid wide swings in net interest margins and to
minimize risk due to changes in interest rates.  At June 30, 1999, the
Company had a manageable positive gap position and therefore does not expect
to experience any significant fluctuations in its net interest income as a
consequence of changes in interest rates.  See also Item. 3, "Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk".


Year 2000 Readiness

The Year 2000 problem is the result of many existing computer programs using
only the last two digits, rather than four digits, to indicate the year.  Such
programs may be unable to recognize a year that begins with "20" rather than
"19".  If not corrected, many computer programs could cause systems to fail or
produce erroneous results.

Since 1996, the Company has been preparing for the Year 2000 problem and has
been taking steps to ensure that its internal systems are secure from
disruption of operations.  The Company's Year 2000 project team, comprised of
representatives of the Company and its affiliates, has invested more than
22,000 hours to date on this project.  The Company core project team has met
monthly addressing both internal and external issues.  The team has identified
over 650 systems that could be potentially affected by the Year 2000 problem.
These systems include all information technology systems and computer chip
embedded functions such as vaults, elevators, security systems, heating and
cooling equipment and other operating facilities.  The Company's efforts have
been directed by a 5-phase plan to be completed in preparation for the Year
2000.  The phases, which were established by the federal agencies that regulate
financial institutions, include awareness, assessment, renovation, validation
and implementation.  These agencies are conducting special examinations of
insured banks to see that they are taking the necessary steps to be prepared


<PAGE 24>

for the century date change.  The Company and its affiliates are working
closely with these agencies and have been following their specific criteria to
assess our progress in Year 2000 readiness.

With regard to information technology systems, the Company utilizes standard
industry hardware and widely used, licensed banking software for most of its
information technology needs.  The software packages are purchased, and the
Company utilizes such software without material program modifications.
Because of its reliance upon third parties, the Company has contacted its
hardware and software vendors to obtain assurances that its systems are Year
2000 compliant.  Additionally, all mission critical hardware and software
systems (identified as 61 systems by the project team) have been tested and
validated and have been deemed Year 2000 compliant.  Furthermore, the Company
has completed all scheduled vendor inquiries and testing for non-information
technology systems, including building and banking equipment.

Externally, the Company has contacted its business partners regarding their
Year 2000 preparedness.  These partners include commercial customers, vendors,
service suppliers, data exchange vendors and utility companies.  The Company's
affiliate banks have also sponsored educational seminars in select market
areas to educate commercial clients regarding Year 2000 issues.

The Company is dependent on the continued operations of numerous third party
vendors, suppliers and service providers.  Any interruption in a third party's
ability to provide goods and services, such as telecommunications, utilities
and transportation, could create Year 2000 problems for the Company.

The Company has developed and adopted a comprehensive contingency plan in the
unlikely event critical systems fail to function after the century date
changes.  Alternative methods of doing business have been developed and are in
the process of being tested.  These methods address data gathering, customer
service procedures, and staffing needs before, during and after the Year 2000
changeover.  This planning also includes non-compliance by third parties which
may affect the Company's ability to conduct business.

Notwithstanding the Company's efforts to date to replace or repair affected
systems and develop contingency plans for potential risks, if the Company does
not complete all activities associated with resolving its Year 2000 issues, the
Company could be materially adversely affected as a result of not being able to
process transactions related to its core business activities.  In addition,
non-compliance by the Company's business partners, including without
limitation, the Company's business customers, vendors, service suppliers and
utilities, could have a material adverse affect on the Company.

The external costs of the Company's Year 2000 project is estimated at
$1,200,000.  External costs include equipment replacement or upgrade, seminar
sponsorships, vendor payments, and customer communication and education.
Additionally, the Company estimates that internal costs will amount to
$500,000, comprised primarily of personnel expense.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report includes forward-looking statements by the Company relating to
such matters as anticipated operating results, prospects for new lines of
business, technological developments, economic trends (including interest
rates), reorganization transactions and similar matters.  The Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-
looking statements, and the purpose of this paragraph is to secure the use of
the safe harbor provisions.  While the Company believes that the assumptions
underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein and in other public
documents are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate,
and accordingly, actual results and experience could differ materially from the
anticipated results or other expectations expressed by the Company in its
forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause actual results or
experience to differ from results discussed in the forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to: economic conditions; volatility and direction
of market interest rates; capital investment in and operating results on
non-banking business ventures of the Company; the ability of the Company's
broker/dealer subsidiary to recruit registered representatives; governmental
legislation and regulation; material unforeseen changes in the financial
condition or results of operations of the Company's customers; customer
reaction to and unforeseen complications with respect to the Company's
restructuring or integration of acquisitions; unforeseen difficulties in
realizing expected cost savings from acquisitions; product redesign
initiative; the effect of the year 2000 on the Company, its computer systems,
customers, vendors and service suppliers; and other risks identified, from
time-to-time in the Company's other public documents on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.



Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk.
The primary business of the Company and the composition of its balance sheet
consists of investments in interest-earning assets, which are funded by
interest-bearing liabilities.  These financial instruments have varying levels
of sensitivity to changes in the market rates of interest, resulting in market
risk.  None of the Company's financial instruments are held for trading
purposes.

One method the Company uses to manage its interest rate risk is a rate
sensitivity gap analysis.  The Company also monitors its interest rate risk
through a sensitivity analysis, whereby it measures potential changes in its
future earnings and the fair values of its financial instruments that may
result from one or more hypothetical changes in interest rates.  This analysis
is performed by estimating the expected cash flows of the Company's financial
instruments using interest rates in effect at June 30, 1999.  The present
value of financial instruments is calculated using estimated cash flows based
on weighted-average contractual rates and terms, then discounted at the
estimated current market interest rate for similar financial instruments.
Hypothetical changes in interest rates are then applied to the financial
instruments, and the cash flows and fair values are again estimated using
these hypothetical rates.  For the net interest income estimates, the
hypothetical rates are applied to the financial instruments based on the
assumed cash flows.  The Company applies these interest rate shocks to its
financial instruments up and down 200 basis points.


<PAGE 26>

The following table presents an analysis of the potential sensitivity of the
Company's annual net interest income and present value of the Company's
financial instruments to sudden and sustained 200 basis-point changes in
market interest rates.

                             June 30,       December 31,
                               1999            1998           Guidelines
One Year Net Interest
  Income Change
+200 Basis points              (0.6)%          (1.4)%           (10.0)%
-200 Basis points              (3.1)           (0.9)            (10.0)

Net Present Value of
  Equity Change
+200 Basis points             (23.5)          (12.1)%           (30.0)%
-200 Basis points              15.3            10.5             (30.0)


The change in market interest rate sensitivity for June 30, 1999 as compared to
December 31, 1998 is primarily due to a reduction in prepayment speeds on loans
and securities resulting from the higher interest rate environment and the
growth in fixed rate loan originations.  The projected volatility of net
interest income and the net present value of equity rates to a +/- 200 basis
points change at June 30, 1999 fall within the Board of Directors guidelines.

The above analysis is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels
of market interest rates, loan prepayments and reactions of depositors to
changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as being indicative
of actual results.  Further, the analysis does not necessarily contemplate all
actions the Company may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
