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 four 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.

These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all
accruals of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management,
are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the
Company at September 30, 1999, and its results of operations and cash flows
for the periods presented.  The accompanying consolidated financial
statements do not contain all financial disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles.  The Company's Annual Report for the year
ended December 31, 1998, contains consolidated financial statements and
related notes which should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of
Sky Bank, Mid Am Bank, The Ohio Bank (Ohio Bank), The Mahoning National Bank
of Youngstown (Mahoning), 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), Freedom Financial Life Insurance
Company (FFLIC), Mid Am Private Trust, N.A. (MAPT), Sky Technology Resources,
Inc. (Sky Tech), Mid Am Capital Trust I (MACT), First Western Capital Trust I
(FWCT) 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

<PAGE  8>

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 September 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
September 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 $48,600 of capital securities issued by the Company through
special purpose trust subsidiaries.  The following table presents the various
capital and leverage ratios of the Company.

                                September 30, 1999     December 31, 1998

In September, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized
management to undertake purchases of up to 3,850,000 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 November 8, 1999, the Company
had repurchased approximately 235,000 shares of common stock pursuant to its
1999 repurchase program.  Under the 1998 plan, the Company repurchased
approximately 504,000 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.

Earnings per share data have also been restated for the 10% stock dividend
declared in September and paid November 1, 1999.

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 September 30, 1999 and 1998


Results of Operations

Net loss for the third quarter of 1999 was $11,497, a decrease of $37,297
over the third quarter of 1998 earnings of $25,800.  Diluted earnings
per common share for the third quarter of 1999, giving effect to the 10%
stock dividend, was $(.15) ($(.15 basic), as to compared to $.33 ($.33 basic)
for the same period in 1998.  Reported net income for the third quarter of
1999 includes after-tax non-recurring items which reduced net income $43,250
or $.55 per diluted share.  The after-tax non-recurring charges for the third
quarter of 1999 included a $24,700 after-tax expense related to mergers and
restructuring, a $14,200 after-tax impairment loss related to prior branch
acquisitions, a $2,800 after-tax expense for contractual payments related to
changes in executive management and a $1,600 after-tax provision for credit
losses related to merged banks.

<PAGE 16>

Operating earnings, which exclude the after-tax non-recurring items,
increased $5,953 or 23% to $31,753 for the third quarter of 1999 as compared
to $25,800 for the same period in 1998.  Operating earnings per diluted share
for 1999 increased 21% to $.40 from $.33 in 1998.  On this same basis, ROE
was 20.65% and ROA was 1.60% in 1999 compared to 15.97% and 1.30%,
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 four commercial banks: Sky Bank,
Mid Am Bank, Ohio Bank and Mahoning.  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 third quarter ended September 30,
1999 and 1998 are summarized in the table below.

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

Community Banking                     $ 32,027        $ 26,080
Financial Service Affiliates               459             364
Parent and Other                       (43,983)           (644)
Consolidated                          $(11,497)       $ 25,800


The increase in community banking net income in 1999 was primarily due to
reductions in non-interest expense.  The efficiency ratio was 45.7% for the
third quarter of 1999 compared to 54.9% in the third quarter of 1998.
The 1999 community banking results reflect a ROE of 21.15% and a ROA of 1.65%
compared to 16.13% and 1.33%, respectively, in the third 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 18% 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 third quarter
1999 results included a non-recurring provision for credit losses of $2,400
($1,560 after tax) and merger, integration and restructuring costs of $58,143
($41,690 after tax).


Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased $4,134 to $77,280 in the third quarter of 1999
as compared to $73,146 for the same period in 1998.  For the third quarter of
1999, average loans were $5,300,000, increasing 7% from the third quarter of
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

<PAGE 17>

composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  The
Company's net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 1999
increased to 4.29% as compared to 4.07% for the same period in 1998.


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 increased $3,327 or 83% to $7,355 in
the third quarter of 1999 compared to $4,028 in the third quarter of 1998.
The higher provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 1999 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 the newly merged banks.  The Company
estimates the additional provision for credit losses in the newly merged
banks was $2,400.  Net charge-offs were $4,253 or 0.32% (annualized) of
average loans during the three months ended September 30, 1999, compared to
$3,135 or 0.25% (annualized) for the same period in 1998.

                              September 30,    December 31,   September 30,
                                    1999           1998            1998
Allowance for credit losses
  as a percentage of loans          1.60%          1.58%           1.42%

  as a percentage of
  non-performing loans            506.18         517.75          480.55


Other Income

The change 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,
offset by a cyclical decline in mortgage banking.  Other income for the third
quarter of 1999 was $30,756, a decrease of $1,129 or 4% from the $31,885 for
the same quarter of 1998.  The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of
$2,731 in mortgage banking income, a decrease of $1,020 in net securities
gains and a decrease in collection agency fees of $225.  The decreases were
partially offset by an increase of $2,064 in brokerage and insurance
commissions, an increase of $667 in service charges and fees on deposit
accounts and an increase of $518 in trust department fee income.  The
decrease in mortgage banking revenue was due to lower origination volumes
caused primarily by rising interest rates.  The decrease in collection agency
fees was primarily due to a reorganization of the  collection agency
business.  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.




<PAGE 18>


Other Expense

Other expense, excluding non-recurring charges, for the third quarter of 1999
was $56,899, a decrease of $6,900 or 11% from the $63,799 reported for the
same quarter of 1998.  The reduction in core operating expenses reflects the
continuing benefits from the restructuring efforts to consolidate bank
charters, convert computer systems and redesign the workforce, as well as
cost savings achieved from the integration of the recently completed bank
mergers.  The efficiency ratio, excluding non-recurring items, was 51.66% for
the third quarter of 1999, decreasing from 59.50% for the same quarter last
year.  Salaries and employee benefits which comprise the largest component of
other expense decreased $2,261 or 7% in the third quarter of 1999 due to
savings realized from the consolidation of ten previously separate banks into
four banking units and elimination of duplicate positions.  Occupancy and
equipment remained level and other expenses decreased $4,618 or 22% to
$16,515 in 1999 from $21,133 in 1998.  The decrease in other expenses was
primarily due to efficiencies realized from consolidating the banks and the
conversion and integration of systems and processes within the Company.


Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 1999 decreased
$14,268 due to pre-tax non-recurring merger, integration and restructuring
expenses of $58,143.  The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 1999,
excluding non-recurring charges, was 31.2% as compared to 30.7% for the same
period in 1998.



Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998


Results of Operations

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $49,022, a
decrease of $22,994 or 32% from the nine months ended September 30, 1998
earnings of $72,016.  Diluted earnings per common share year to date for
1999, giving effect to the 10% stock dividend, was $.62 ($.63 basic), as
compared to $.91 ($.92 basic) for the same period in 1998.  After-tax non-
recurring items reduced year to date 1999 net income by $43,250 or $.55 per
diluted share and reduced year to date 1998 net income by $1,972 or $.03 per
diluted share.

Operating earnings, which exclude the after-tax non-recurring items,
increased $18,284 or 25% to $92,272 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 as compared to $73,988 for the same period in 1998.  Operating earnings
per diluted share for 1999 increased 25% to $1.17 from $.94 in 1998.  On this
same basis, ROE was 19.91% and ROA was 1.58% in 1999 compared to 15.66% and
1.31%, respectively, in 1998.

management and other financial related services.

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

                                           Net Income (Loss)
Nine Months Ended September 30,          1999            1998

Community Banking                     $ 93,881        $ 75,150

Consolidated                          $ 49,022        $ 72,016


The increase in community banking net income in 1999 was primarily due to
reductions in non-interest expense.  The efficiency ratio was 47.0% year-to-
date for 1999 compared to 55.0% for 1998.  The 1999 community banking results
reflect a ROE of 21.04% and a ROA of 1.64% compared to 16.81% and 1.35%,
respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 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.  For 1999, results
included a non-recurring provision for credit losses of $2,400 ($1,560 after
tax) and merger, integration and restructuring costs of $58,143 ($41,690
after tax).  For 1998, results included one-time recoveries of $3,740 ($2,884
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 $11,098 to $226,111 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to $215,013 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 nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased to
4.28 in 1999 as compared to 4.19% for the same period in 1998.

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 increased $2,170 or 16% to $16,097 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $13,927 for the same
period in 1998.  The higher provision for credit losses in 1999 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 the merged banks.  Net charge-offs were
$11,318 or 0.29% (annualized) of average loans during the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, compared to $9,061 or 0.25% (annualized) for the same
period in 1998.

adding to profitability beyond traditional banking products and services,
partially offset by a cyclical decline in mortgage banking.  Other income for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $94,943, an increase of $2,289
or 2% from the $92,654 for the same period of 1998 excluding a $1,475
favorable legal settlement.  The increase was primarily due to an increase of
$2,715 in service charges and fees on deposit accounts, an increase of $4,566
in brokerage and insurance commissions, and an increase of $677 in trust
department fee income.  The increases were partially offset by a decrease of
$3,706 in mortgage banking revenue and a decrease of $1,541 in collection
agency fees.  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 trust department fee income was
due to the increase in customers.  The decrease in mortgage banking revenue
was due to lower origination volumes caused primarily by rising interest
rates.  The decrease in collection agency fees was primarily due to a
reorganization of the collection agency business.

Other Expense

Other expense, excluding non-recurring items, for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 was $172,991, a decrease of $13,439 or 7% from the
$186,430 reported for the same period of 1998.  The reduction in core
operating expenses reflects the continuing benefits from the restructuring
efforts to consolidate bank charters, convert computer systems and redesign
the workforce, as well as cost savings achieved from the integration of hte
recently completed bank mergers.  The efficiency ratio, excluding non-
recurring items, was 52.83% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999,
decreasing from 59.78% for the same period in 1998.  Salaries and employee
benefits which comprise the largest component of other expense decreased 5%
year to date for 1999 due to savings realized from the consolidation of ten
previously separate banks into four banking units and elimination of
duplicate positions.  Occupancy and equipment expense increased $930 or 3%.
Other expenses decreased $9,423 or 15% to $52,600 in 1999 from $62,023 in
1998.  The decrease in other expenses was primarily due to efficiencies
realized from consolidating the banks and the conversion and integration of
systems and processes within the Company.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
decreased $7,064, or 22%, to $24,801 compared to $31,865 for the same period
in 1998 due to a decrease in pre-tax income.  The effective tax rate for 1999
was 33.6% as compared to 30.7% for the same period in 1998.

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 $28,814 and $30,423 at September 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 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 September 30, 1999, the Company did not have any loan concentrations
which exceeded 10% of total loans.

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.

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.


<PAGE 23>

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 September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

                           September 30, 1999     December 31, 1998

  Construction                   $   745              $   693
  Real estate                     10,072                8,091

    and agricultural              23,816               25,739
  Installment and credit card     21,775               18,008
  Other loans                        501                1,820
  Unallocated                     28,651               26,397
    Total                        $85,560              $80,748


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 September 30, 1999,
securities and other short-term investments with maturities of one year or
less totaled $188,786, with additional liquidity provided by the remainder of
the investment portfolio.  The banks utilize several short-term and long-term
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
September 30, 1999, these lines of credit enable the banks to borrow up to
$886,867, of which $736,024 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 without
prior regulatory approval were limited to $25,110 at September 30,1999.


<PAGE 24>

In September, 1999, the Company renegotiated an agreement with unrelated
financial institutions which enabled the Company to borrow up to $100,000
through March 8, 2000.  At September 30, 1999, the Company had borrowings of
$77,000 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 September 30, 1999, the
Company had a manageable negative 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's core project team has
met at least 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 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 obtained
assurances from its primary hardware and software vendors 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.

<PAGE 25>

Externally, the Company has contacted its business partners regarding their
Year 2000 preparedness.  These partners include significant 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 and consumer clients
regarding Year 2000 issues.

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 have
been 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.

The Company is dependent on the continued operations of numerous third party
vendors, suppliers, utilities 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.  In addition, the failure of adequate Year 2000
preparation by the Company's commercial business customers could adversely
effect 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 September 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.

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.

                           September 30,
                               1999          Guidelines
One Year Net Interest
  Income Change
+200 Basis points              (3.5)%          (10.0)%
-200 Basis points               0.7            (10.0)

Net Present Value of
  Equity Change
+200 Basis points             (18.0)           (30.0)%
-200 Basis points              13.7            (30.0)


Prior year end data for comparison purposes is not available.  The projected
volatility of net interest income and the net present value of equity rates
to a +/- 200 basis points change at September 30, 1999 fall within the Board
of Directors guidelines.


<PAGE 27>


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.
