                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                          MARKET FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                        For the nine month periods ended
                             June 30, 1999 and 1998

1.       Basis of Presentation

         The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  were
prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB, and, therefore, do not
include  information  or  footnotes  necessary  for  complete   presentation  of
financial  position,  results of operations  and cash flows in  conformity  with
generally  accepted   accounting   principles.   Accordingly,   these  financial
statements  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the  consolidated  financial
statements  and notes thereto of Market  Financial  Corporation  ("MFC") for the
year ended  September  30,  1998.  However,  in the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments  (consisting of only normal recurring  accruals) which are necessary
for  fair  presentation  of the  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been
included.  The results of operations  for the three month and nine month periods
ended June 30, 1999, are not necessarily  indicative of the results which may be
expected for an entire fiscal year.

2.       Principles of Consolidation

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of MFC and the Market Bank ("Market").  All significant  intercompany items have
been eliminated.

3.       Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 1996,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (the "FASB")
issued Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive  Income."  SFAS No. 130  established  standards  for reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components (revenue, expenses, gains and
losses)  in a full set of  general-purpose  financial  statements.  SFAS No. 130
requires  that all items that are  required to be  recognized  under  accounting
standards  as  components  of  comprehensive  income be  reported in a financial
statement  that is  displayed  with  the  same  prominence  as  other  financial
statements.  It does not require a specific format for that financial  statement
but  requires  that  an  enterprise   display  an  amount   representing   total
comprehensive income for the period in the financial statement.

         SFAS No. 130 requires  that an enterprise  (a) classify  items of other
comprehensive  income by their nature in a financial  statement  and (b) display
the accumulated balance of other  comprehensive  income separately from retained
earnings and additional  paid-in  capital.  SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal
years  beginning  after  December  15,  1997.   Reclassification   of  financial
statements  for earlier  periods is  required.  Management  adopted SFAS No. 130
effective  October  1,  1998,  as  required,  without  material  effect on MFC's
consolidated financial statements.

         In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related  Information."  SFAS No. 131 significantly  changes
the way that public  business  enterprises  report  information  about operating
segments in annual  financial  statements  and requires  that those  enterprises
report  selected  information  about  reportable  segments in interim  financial
reports  issued to  shareholders.  It also  establishes  standards  for  related
disclosures  about products and services,  geographic areas and major customers.
SFAS No. 131 uses a "management  approach" to disclose financial and descriptive
information  about the way that  management  organizes  the segments  within the
enterprise for making operating  decisions and assessing  information.  For many
enterprises,  the management  approach will likely result in more segments being
reported. In addition,  SFAS No. 131 requires  significantly more information to
be disclosed for each  reportable  segment than is presently  being  reported in
annual  financial  statements  and also requires that  selected  information  be
reported in interim financial  statements.  SFAS No. 131 is effective for fiscal
years  beginning  after  December  15,  1997.  Management  adopted  SFAS No. 131
effective  October  1,  1998,  as  required,  without  material  effect on MFC's
consolidated financial statements.

         In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133,  "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging  Activities,"  which requires  entities to recognize all
derivatives  in their  financial  statements  as either  assets  or  liabilities
measured at fair value.  SFAS No. 133 also  specifies  new methods of accounting
for hedging  transactions,  prescribes  the items and  transactions  that may be
hedged,  and  specifies  detailed  criteria  to be  met  to  qualify  for  hedge
accounting.



                                  Page 8 of 15
<PAGE>

         The definition of a derivative  financial instrument is complex, but in
general it is an instrument  with one or more  underlyings,  such as an interest
rate or foreign exchange rate, that is applied to a notional amount,  such as an
amount of currency, to determine the settlement amount(s). It generally requires
no  significant  initial  investment and can be settled net or by delivery of an
asset that is readily  convertible to cash.  SFAS No. 133 applies to derivatives
embedded in other contracts, unless the underlying of the embedded derivative is
clearly and closely related to the host contract.

         SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal years
beginning  after June 15, 2000. On adoption,  entities are permitted to transfer
held-to-maturity  debt securities to the  available-for-sale or trading category
without  calling into  question  their intent to hold other debt  securities  to
maturity in the future. SFAS No.
133 is not expected to have a material impact on MFC's financial statements.

4.       Pending Legislative Changes

         The  deposit  accounts  of Market and other  savings  associations  are
insured  up to  applicable  limits  by the  FDIC  in the  SAIF.  Legislation  to
recapitalize  the SAIF was  enacted on  September  30,  1996.  Such  legislation
provided that the SAIF will be merged into the Bank  Insurance Fund if there are
no remaining  federal savings  associations.  Such legislation also requires the
Department  of Treasury to submit a report to Congress on the  development  of a
common charter for all financial institutions.

         Pursuant to such  legislation,  Congress  may  eliminate  the OTS,  and
Market may be regulated under federal law as a bank or may be required to change
its charter.  Such change in regulation or charter would likely change the range
of activities in which Market may engage and would  probably  subject  Market to
more  regulation  by the FDIC.  In addition,  Market  might become  subject to a
different form of holding company regulation,  which may limit the activities in
which  MFC  may  engage,   and  subject  MFC  to  other  additional   regulatory
requirements,  including separate capital requirements. At this time, MFC cannot
predict when or whether Congress may actually pass  legislation  regarding MFC's
and Market's regulatory  requirements or charter.  Although such legislation may
change  the  activities  in which  either MFC or Market  may  engage,  it is not
anticipated  that the  current  activities  of  either  MFC and  Market  will be
materially affected by those activity limits.

5.       Earnings Per Share

         Basic  earnings per share is computed  based upon the weighted  average
shares  outstanding  during  the  period,  less  shares  in the  ESOP  that  are
unallocated  and not committed to be released.  Weighted  average  common shares
outstanding,  which gives  effect to 84,096  unallocated  ESOP  shares,  totaled
1,199,579 and 1,218,008  shares for the three month and nine month periods ended
June 30, 1999. Weighted average common shares outstanding, which gives effect to
95,863  unallocated ESOP shares,  totaled 1,239,862 shares for each of the three
month and nine month periods ended June 30, 1998.  Diluted earnings per share is
computed  taking into  consideration  common  shares  outstanding  and  dilutive
potential   common   shares  to  be  issued   under  MFC's  stock  option  plan.
Weighted-average  shares  outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings
per share  totaled  1,199,579 and 1,218,008 for the three and nine month periods
ended June 30, 1999,  and 1,239,862 for each of the three and nine month periods
ended June 30, 1998.  Options to purchase  125,558 and 113,526  shares of common
stock  with a  weighted-average  exercise  price  of  $9.6875  and  $13.50  were
outstanding at June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively,  but were excluded from the
computation of common stock equivalents because their exercise price was greater
than the average market price of the common shares.

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

                          MARKET FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                    Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

         In addition to historical  information  contained herein, the following
discussion   contains   forward-looking   statements   that  involve  risks  and
uncertainties.  Economic  circumstances,  Market's operations and actual results
could  differ   significantly  from  those  discussed  in  the   forward-looking
statements.  Some  of the  factors  that  could  cause  or  contribute  to  such
differences  are  discussed  herein but also include  changes in the economy and
interest rates in the nation and MFC's market area generally.

         Some  of  the  forward-looking   statements  included  herein  are  the
statements regarding  management's  determination of the amount of allowance for
losses on loans, the adequacy of collateral on  nonperforming  loans, the effect
of the year 2000 on information  technology  systems,  legislative  changes with
respect  to the  federal  thrift  charter  and  the  effect  of  certain  recent
accounting pronouncements.

Discussion of Financial  Condition  Changes from  September 30, 1998 to June 30,
1999

         MFC's assets at June 30, 1999, totaled  approximately  $55.3 million, a
$687,000,  or 1.3%, increase over the $54.6 million total at September 30, 1998.
The  increase  was funded  through  growth in deposits  and net earnings for the
quarter, including gains on sale of securities designated as available for sale.

         Liquid assets (cash and cash  equivalents,  certificates of deposit and
investment  securities)  totaled  $16.9  million at June 30, 1999, a decrease of
$3.0 million from the total at September 30, 1998. Net proceeds from the decline
in liquid  assets were used to fund net loan  originations  of $1.7  million and
purchase mortgage-backed securities of $1.5 million.

         Loans receivable totaled $34.5 million at June 30, 1999, an increase of
$1.7 million, or 5.1%, over September 30, 1998. This increase resulted primarily
from loan originations of $9.1 million,  which exceeded principal  repayments of
$7.4 million.  Market's  allowance for loan losses  totaled  $52,000 at June 30,
1999 and September 30, 1998.  The allowance  represented  .15% and .16% of total
loans at June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998, respectively. Nonperforming loans
totaled $173,000 and $171,000, or .50% and .52% of total loans, at June 30, 1999
and September 30, 1998, respectively.

         Although management believes that its allowance for loan losses at June
30, 1999, was adequate based upon the available facts and  circumstances,  there
can be no assurances  that  additions to such allowance will not be necessary in
future periods, which could adversely affect Market's results of operations.

         Deposits  totaled  $39.7  million at June 30, 1999, an increase of $1.9
million,  or 5.1%,  over the  total  at  September  30,  1998.  Demand  accounts
increased by approximately  $417,000,  and certificates of deposit  increased by
$1.5  million  during  the  period  ended  June  30,  1999.  At June  30,  1999,
certificates  of deposit that will mature within one year accounted for 56.0% of
Market's deposit  liabilities.  Proceeds from the increase in deposits were used
to fund loan  originations,  purchase  office  premises and repay other borrowed
money.

         Shareholders  equity totaled $14.7 million at June 30, 1999, a decrease
of $351,000, or 2.3%, from September 30, 1998. The decrease was due primarily to
a purchase of 66,786 treasury shares totaling  $737,000,  coupled with dividends
paid of $275,000, which were partially offset by net earnings of $575,000.

         Market is  required  to meet each of three  minimum  capital  standards
promulgated  by the  Office  of  Thrift  Supervision  (the  "OTS"),  hereinafter
described as the tangible capital requirement,  the core capital requirement and
the risk-based capital  requirement.  The tangible capital requirement  provides
for the maintenance of shareholders'  equity less all intangible assets equal to
1.5% of adjusted  total assets.  The core capital  requirement  provides for the
maintenance of tangible capital plus certain forms of supervisory goodwill equal
to 3% of  adjusted  total  assets,  while  the  risk-based  capital  requirement
mandates  maintenance of core capital plus general loan loss allowances equal to
8% of risk-weighted  assets as defined by OTS regulations.  As of June 30, 1999,
Market's  tangible and core capital totaled $13.5 million,  or 24.5% of adjusted
total  assets,  which  exceeded  the minimum  requirements  of $829,000 and $1.7
million, by $12.7 million and $11.8 million,  respectively. As of June 30, 1999,
Market's risk-based capital was $13.6 million, or 50.6% of risk-weighted assets,
exceeding the minimum requirement by $11.4 million.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three-Month  Periods Ended June 30, 1999
and 1998

General

         Net earnings totaled $102,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999,
a $41,000, or 28.7%, decrease from the $143,000 of net earnings recorded for the
three months ended June 30, 1998.  The decrease in earnings  resulted  primarily
from a  $44,000  decrease  in net  interest  income  and a $20,000  increase  in
general,  administrative  and other expense,  which were  partially  offset by a
$22,000 decrease in the provision for federal income taxes.

Net Interest Income

         Interest  income  decreased by $40,000,  or 4.1%,  for the three months
ended June 30,  1999,  compared to the three  months  ended June 30,  1998.  The
decrease  resulted  primarily from a decrease in the weighted average balance of
investment  securities  outstanding  following  the payment of the $4.7  million
distribution  to  shareholders  in April  1998.  Interest  expense  on  deposits
increased  by $4,000,  or .9%,  due  primarily  to an increase  in the  weighted
average balance of deposits,  which was partially  offset with a decrease in the
cost of deposits.  Net interest  income  decreased by $44,000,  or 8.3%, for the
three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to the same quarter in 1998.

Provision for Losses on Loans

         A  provision  for losses on loans is charged to  earnings  to bring the
total  allowance  to a level  considered  appropriate  by  management  based  on
historical  experience,  the volume and type of lending conducted by Market, the
status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions,
particularly as such conditions relate to market area, and other factors related
to the collectibility of Market's loan portfolio.  As a result of such analysis,
management  decided no  additional  provision  for losses on loans was necessary
during the quarter ended June 30, 1999. There can be no assurance, however, that
the  allowance  for loan losses of Market  will be  adequate to cover  losses on
nonperforming assets in the future.

         The foregoing  statement is a  "forward-looking"  statement  within the
meaning of Section 27A of the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  and Section
21E of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as amended.  Factors  that could
affect the adequacy of the loan loss allowance include,  but are not limited to,
the  following:  (1)  changes  in the  national  and  local  economy  which  may
negatively  impact the ability of  borrowers  to repay their loans and which may
cause the value of real  estate and other  properties  that  secure  outstanding
loans to decline;  (2) unforeseen  adverse changes in circumstances with respect
to uncertain  large loan  borrowers;  (3)  decreases in the value of  collateral
securing  consumer  loans  to  amounts  equal to or less  than  the  outstanding
balances of the consumer loans;  and (4)  determinations  by various  regulatory
agencies that Market must recognize  additions to its loan loss allowance  based
on such  regulators'  judgment of  information  available to them at the time of
their examinations.

Other Income

     Other  operating  income,  primarily  service  fees  on  money  orders  and
travelers' checks,  totaled $3,000 and $2,000 for the three-month  periods ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

         General,  administrative  and other expenses  increased by $20,000,  or
6.4%, for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, compared to the same quarter in 1998.
The increase resulted primarily from a $31,000,  or 18.3%,  increase in employee
compensation  and benefits due to hiring new personnel,  normal merit  increases
and expenses  related to the stock  benefit  plans.  This increase was partially
offset by an $8,000, or 13.8%,  decrease in franchise taxes due to a decrease in
shareholders'  equity from a special cash  distribution  to shareholders of $4.7
million paid in April 1998 and an $8,000, or 15.1%,  decrease in other operating
expenses.

Federal Income Tax

         The  provision for federal  income taxes totaled  $52,000 for the three
months  ended June 30,  1999,  compared  to $74,000  for the 1998  quarter.  The
$22,000,  or 29.7%,  decrease  resulted  from a $63,000,  or 29.0%,  decrease in
earnings  before  taxes.  The  effective  tax rates were 33.8% and 34.1% for the
three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Comparison of Operating  Results for the Nine-Month  Periods Ended June 30, 1999
and 1998

General

         Net earnings  totaled $575,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999,
a $138,000,  or 31.6%,  increase over the $437,000 of net earnings  recorded for
the nine months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in earnings resulted primarily
from a  $466,000  increase  in other  income,  which was  partially  offset by a
$252,000 decrease in net interest income and a $71,000 increase in the provision
for federal income taxes.

Net Interest Income

         Interest  income  decreased by $167,000,  or 5.7%,  for the nine months
ended June 30,  1999,  compared  to the nine  months  ended June 30,  1998.  The
decrease  resulted  primarily  from  a  decrease  in the  investment  securities
portfolio due to a $4.7 million special cash  distribution to shareholders  paid
in April 1998.  Interest expense on deposits  increased by $63,000,  or 4.9% due
primarily to an increase in the deposit  portfolio,  which was partially  offset
with a decrease  in the cost of  deposits.  Net  interest  income  decreased  by
$252,000,  or 15.1%,  for the nine months ended June 30,  1999,  compared to the
same period in 1998.

Provision for Losses on Loans

         As a result of an analysis  of  historical  experience,  the volume and
type of lending  conducted  by  Market,  the  status of past due  principal  and
interest payments, general economic conditions,  particularly as such conditions
relate to Market's market area, and other factors related to the  collectibility
of Market's  loan  portfolio,  management  decided no  additional  provision for
losses on loans was necessary  during the nine months ended June 30, 1999. There
can be no assurance,  however, that the allowance for loan losses of Market will
be adequate to cover losses on nonperforming assets in the future.

Other Income

     Other income increased to $472,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999,
as compared to $6,000 for the 1998 period  primarily  due to a $463,000  gain on
sale of investment securities designated as available for sale.

     Other  operating  income,  primarily  service  fees  on  money  orders  and
travelers'  checks,  totaled $9,000 and $6,000 for the nine-month  periods ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

         General,  administrative and other expense increased by $5,000, or .5%,
for the nine months  ended June 30,  1999,  compared to the same period in 1998.
The increase resulted  primarily from a $9,000,  or 6.2%,  increase in franchise
taxes.

Federal Income Tax

         The  provision for federal  income taxes totaled  $296,000 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1999,  compared to $225,000 for the same 1998 period.  The
$71,000,  or 31.6%,  increase  resulted from a $209,000,  or 31.6%,  increase in
earnings  before  taxes.  The  effective tax rate was 34.0% for each of the nine
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

Year 2000 Compliance Matters

         As with most providers of financial  services,  Market's operations are
heavily dependent on information  technology  systems.  Market is addressing the
potential  problems  associated  with the  possibility  that the computers  that
control or operate Market's information technology and infrastructure may not be
programmed to read four-digit date codes and, upon arrival of the year 2000, may
recognize the two-digit code "00" as the year 1900,  causing  systems to fail to
function or to generate erroneous data.

         Market has  appointed a Year 2000  Coordinator  who,  with  support and
oversight  from  management  and the Boards of Directors of both Market and MFC,
shall analyze the risk of potential  problems that might arise from the failures




                                 Page 12 of 15
<PAGE>

of computers and  microprocessors  to recognize the Year 2000,  and to develop a
plan to  mitigate  such risks.  The Year 2000  Coordinator  submits  monthly and
quarterly  progress  reports to the Boards of  Directors.  The impact upon MFC's
results of  operation,  liquidity  and  capital  resources  will be  immaterial;
however, approximately $16,000 has been budgeted to ensure Year 2000 compliance.
Through June 1999, Year 2000 expenditures have totaled approximately $4,000.

         The Year 2000  Coordinator has determined  that the greatest  potential
impact  upon  Market  and MFC is the risk  related  to  vendors  used by Market,
particularly its data processing  service bureau.  STARCOM is the system used by
the service bureau (NCR) to process account data and generate necessary reports.
NCR has stated in its  October 31, 1998  Quarterly  Update  Letter (a "Year 2000
Readiness  Disclosure") that the STARCOM system is Year 2000 qualified per their
Year 2000 Qualification Requirements Definition document.

         Management  and the Boards of Directors of Market and MFC have reviewed
the reports  regarding Year 2000 testing  results to date and are in the process
of taking appropriate  remedial measures without material cost. No assurance can
be given,  however,  that  significant  expense  will not be  incurred in future
periods.  In the unlikely  event that Market is ultimately  required to purchase
replacement  computer  systems,  programs and  equipment,  or incur  substantial
expense to make  Market's  current  systems,  programs and  equipment  year 2000
compliant,  Market's  net earnings and  financial  condition  could be adversely
affected.

         The Year 2000  Coordinator  has written a  contingency  plan to provide
options  for the Boards of  Directors  and  management  in order to ensure  that
Market's core business  functions can continue to operate in the event of a Year
2000 problem.

         In addition  to possible  expense  related to its own  systems,  Market
could  incur  losses if loan  payments  are  delayed  due to year 2000  problems
affecting any major borrowers in Market's primary market area.  Because Market's
loan  portfolio is highly  diversified  with regard to individual  borrowers and
types of  businesses  and  Market's  primary  market  area is not  significantly
dependent upon one employer or industry,  Market does not expect any significant
or prolonged difficulties that will affect net earnings or cash flow.

         In addition, financial institutions may experience increases in problem
loans and credit losses in the event that borrowers fail to prepare properly for
Year 2000, and higher funding costs could result if consumers react to publicity
about the issue by withdrawing deposits.  MFC could also be materially adversely
affected if other third parties, such as governmental agencies, clearing houses,
