NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

NOTE 1  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
AND CONSOLIDATION

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein include the accounts of LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. (the
Bancorp), its wholly owned subsidiary, The LaPorte Savings Bank (the Bank) and the Banks wholly owned subsidiary, LPSB Investments LTD., Cayman (LPSB Ltd.) together referred to as the Company. The
Bancorp was formed on October 12, 2007. LPSB Ltd. began operations in 2002 when the Bank received approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to form the subsidiary in the Cayman Islands. LPSB Ltd. held and managed a portion of the
Banks investment portfolio until July 30, 2008 when the securities were transferred to the Bank as LPSB Ltd. was in the process of being dissolved. LPSB Ltd. was deemed to be dissolved on March 17, 2009. Intercompany transactions and
balances are eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by management in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the unaudited
consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures which are necessary in the opinion of management to make the financial statements not misleading and for a fair presentation
of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented herein.

Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 included in the Form 10-K
Annual Report of LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

With operating results being so closely related to
and responsive to changes in economic conditions, the results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 may not necessarily indicate the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2009.

NOTE 2  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Adoption of New Accounting Standards:

FASB ASC 105-10

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (Statement No. 168  The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarch of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles). The new guidance replaces SFAS No. 162 and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities
in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Rules and interpretative releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission under federal securities laws are also sources of
authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The new standard became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - continued



Effect of Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards:

FASB ASC 715-20-50

In December 2008, the
FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB ASC 715-20-50, Compensation Retirement Benefits  Defined Benefit Plans  General (FASB Staff Position No. 132(R)-1, Employers Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets).
This provides guidance on an employers disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. The guidance requires disclosure of the fair value of each major category of plan assets for pension plans and
other postretirement benefit plans. This standard becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected
to have a material impact to the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

FASB ASC 810-10

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB ASC 810-10, Consolidation (Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation
No. 46 (R)). The new guidance amends tests for variable interest entities to determine whether a variable interest entity must be consolidated. FASB ASC 810-10 requires an entity to perform an analysis to determine whether an entitys
variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. This standard requires ongoing reassessments of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and enhanced
disclosures that provide more transparent information about an entitys involvement with a variable interest entity. The new guidance will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2010 and the Company is currently evaluating the
impact of adopting the standard on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

FASB ASC 820-10

In August 2009, the FASB issued an update (ASC No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value) impacting FASB ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures. The update provides clarification about measuring liabilities at fair value in circumstances where a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available and the valuation techniques that should be used. The
update also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not require to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the
liability. This standard becomes effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

FASB ASC 860

In June 2009, the FASB issued
new guidance impacting FASB ASC 860, Transfers and servicing (Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfer of Financial Assets  an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140). The new guidance removes the concept of a qualifying
special-purpose entity and limits the circumstances in which a financial asset, or portion of a financial asset, should be derecognized when the transferor has not transferred the entire financial asset to an entity that is not consolidated with the
transferor in the financial statements being presented and/or when the transferor has continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset. The new standard will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 3  EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is determined by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. ESOP shares are considered outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is determined by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common share equivalents (-0- for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008). Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is
equal to basic earnings (loss) per common share for the periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, as there were no potentially dilutive common shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. The factors used in the
earnings (loss) per common share computation follow:

At September 30, 2009, the Company held 18 investments in debt securities which were in an
unrealized loss position of which 9 were in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and 9 were in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or more. At September 30, 2009, the Company held 12 corporate debt securities, of
which 4 corporate debt securities were in an unrealized loss position. All 12 corporate debt securities held by the Company were considered investment grade. Management periodically evaluates each investment security for potential other than
temporary impairment, relying primarily on industry analyst reports and observation of market conditions and interest rate fluctuations. Except as disclosed below, management believes it will be able to collect all amounts due according to the
contractual terms of the underlying investment securities and that the noted declines in fair value are considered temporary and due only to normal market interest rate fluctuations. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these debt
securities for a period sufficient to allow for the anticipated full recovery in fair value.

During 2008, certain government sponsored
enterprise equity securities and a Lehman Brothers debt security were determined to have declines in market values that were considered to be other than temporary and accordingly impairment charges to earnings of $1,711 were recorded in
2008. In making these determinations, management considered: (1) the fact that certain of these securities were previously considered to have declines in market values that were considered to be other than temporary, (2) the
financial condition and near term prospects of the issuers, and (3) the Companys ability and intent to hold the securities for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. During June 2009, the Company sold the
certain government sponsored enterprise equity securities it had recorded other than temporary impairment charges on in 2008. The Company recorded a $20 gain on the sale of these securities.

During the month of May 2009, a mortgage warehouse lending division was established at the Bank. This
division has approved specific mortgage companies through which individual mortgage loans are originated by the mortgage company and funded by the Bank, as a secured borrowing with pledge of collateral under the Banks agreement with the
mortgage company. The individual mortgage loans are held between the time of origination and subsequent repurchase by the mortgage company for sale of the loan into the secondary market. Each individual mortgage is assigned to the Bank until the
loan is repurchased and sold to the secondary market by the mortgage company. Also, the Bank takes possession of each original note and forwards such note to the end investor once the mortgage company has sold the loan. The individual loans are
typically sold by the mortgage company within 30 days of origination and are seldom held more than 90 days. Interest income is accrued by the Bank during this period and fee income for each loan sold is collected when the sale has been completed. As
of September 30, 2009, the Bank had repurchase agreements with eight mortgage companies. During the third quarter of 2009, the mortgage companies originated $249,276 in mortgage loans and sold $248,840 in mortgage loans. The Bank recorded
interest income of $583, mortgage warehouse loan fees of $106 and wire transfer fees of $30 during the third quarter of 2009.

Purchased Loans Subject to SOP 03-3

The Company purchased loans during 2007, for which there was, at acquisition, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually
required payments would not be collected. The carrying amount of those loans is as follows:

NOTE 6  FAIR VALUE

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP.

The Company also adopted FASB ASC 825-10 (SFAS No. 159), on January 1, 2008. FASB ASC 825-10 permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. This statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose
different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The Company elected the fair value option for its loans held for sale on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2008, in order to achieve operational simplification.
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SAB No. 109 and, accordingly, began to recognize residential mortgage loan commitment derivatives at fair value on a prospective basis. Additionally, the Company valued securities available for sale at
fair value prior to the adoption of FASB ASC 820-10 and FASB ASC 825-10; therefore, there is no transition adjustment resulting from the adoption of FASB ASC 820-10 and FASB ASC 825-10.

FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs
when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1:
Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are
observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting
entitys own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The fair values of
securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without
relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).

The fair value of loans held for sale and residential mortgage loan commitment derivatives are determined by obtaining quoted prices for similar loans and commitments with similar interest rates and
maturities from major secondary markets (Level 2 inputs).

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for
loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach (Level 2 inputs). Adjustments are routinely
made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant for determining fair value (Level 3 inputs).

NOTE 6  FAIR VALUE - continued



The fair value of servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of
estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income (Level 3 inputs).

The fair value of derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, is based on derivative valuation models using market data inputs as of the valuation date that can generally be verified
and do not typically involve significant management judgments (Level 2 inputs).

Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

NOTE 6  FAIR VALUE - continued



The following represent impairment charges recognized during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2009 for assets measured at fair value:

Impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the
collateral for collateral dependent loans, had an estimated fair value of $1,238 and $970, with a valuation allowance of $329 and $730 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. An additional provision for loan losses of $103 and $242
was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. An additional provision for loan losses of $730 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Other real estate owned, which is measured for impairment using the fair value of the underlying collateral, had an estimated fair value of $230, with a valuation allowance of $78 at September 30,
2009, resulting in an additional write-down of $20 and $78 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 which were included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Other Comprehensive Income.

Mortgage servicing rights, which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, were written down to fair value of $406 at September 30, 2009 with a
valuation allowance of $45. A charge of $10 and $3 was recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. This expense was included in loan servicing fees, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Other Comprehensive
Income.

NOTE 7  BORROWINGS

On February 11, 2009, the Bank issued a $5,000 note due on February 15, 2012 under the FDIC Temporary Debt Guarantee Program. The note bears an interest rate of 2.74% in addition to the 100 basis point FDIC guarantee fee paid by
the Bank. The Banks FDIC debt guarantee limit is $6,269. Interest payments are required to be made semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 in each year commencing on August 15, 2009, and on the maturity date. All
legal and placement fees associated with this transaction were capitalized as debt issuance costs and will be amortized to interest expense over the repayment period on a straight-line basis. At September 30, 2009, the unamortized debt issuance
costs totaled $164. The Bank is required to report, by the thirtieth calendar day following the end of a month, the total amount of all FDIC-guaranteed debt (and any interest accrued and unpaid on that debt) as of the preceding months end.

NOTE 8  INTEREST RATE SWAP

The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The
notional amount of the interest rate swap does not represent an amount exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreement.

Interest Rate Swaps Designated as Cash Flow Hedges: During the second quarter of 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap with a
notional amount of $5,000 which is designated as a cash flow hedge of the Companys subordinated debenture and was determined to be fully effective during this time period. As such, no amount of ineffectiveness has been included in net income.
Therefore, the aggregate fair value of the swap is recorded in other assets with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income, net of tax. The amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income would be reclassified to current
earnings should the hedge no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedge to remain fully effective during the remaining term of the swap.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the derivative financial instrument utilized by the Company:

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and due from financial institutions, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, other
secured borrowings and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. As disclosed in more detail in Note 6, security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate
and term of the security and information about the issuer. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market
rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk without considering widening credit spreads due to market illiquidity. As disclosed in more detail in Note 6, fair values of impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or
underlying collateral values. The fair value of FHLB stock is not determinable as there are restrictions on its transferability. The fair value of our derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, is based on derivative valuation
models using market data inputs as of the valuation date. Fair value of subordinated debentures is based on current rates for similar financing utilizing the forward LIBOR curve. The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, FDIC guaranteed
unsecured borrowings and other secured borrowings are based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance-sheet items is based on the current fees or cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements and
is not considered significant to this presentation.

NOTE 9  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - continued



Disclosures include estimated fair values for financial instruments for which it is practicable to
estimate fair value. These estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market data and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering the
Companys entire holdings of a particular financial instrument for sale at one time, nor do they attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business related to the instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the
realization of unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of these estimates.

Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Companys financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of
various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly
affect the fair values presented.

NOTE 10  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of our financial statements, or November 12, 2009, which is the date that our financial statements were issued. On November 10, 2009, the
Company became aware of net insurance settlement proceeds that we expect to receive attributable to the death benefit proceeds from two insurance policies as a part of the Companys bank owned life insurance plan. The net settlement proceeds as
of September 30, 2009 totaled approximately $427,000 and will be recorded tax-free into other noninterest income when collected, for which there is no corresponding liability. The Company expects the payment within 90 to 120 days. We do not
believe any other subsequent events have occurred that would require further disclosure or adjustment to the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008

General: Total assets increased $19.3 million, or 5.2%, to $387.9 million at September 30, 2009 from $368.6
million at December 31, 2008. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net loans of $26.5 million, offset by a decrease in securities available for sale of $4.4 million. The increase in net loans was primarily due to the implementation
of the mortgage warehouse lending program in May of 2009. The decrease in securities was primarily attributable to the sale of $13.0 million of securities in the second quarter of 2009, for which the proceeds were used to retire $7.5 million of
Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis advances and fund loans. Total deposits increased $21.5 million, or 9.1%, which assisted in funding the increase in loans.

Investment Securities:Total securities available for sale decreased $4.4 million, or 4.4%, to $97.0 million at September 30, 2009 from $101.5 million at December 31, 2008. The decrease
was primarily due to the sale of approximately $13.0 million of mortgage-backed securities in the second quarter of 2009. Part of the proceeds from the sale of securities was used to retire $7.5 million of Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis
advances with a stated maturity in 2010 and a cost of 5.97%. A portion of the proceeds from the sale were also used to fund the mortgage warehouse loans.

As of September 30, 2009, management reviewed the securities portfolio for possible other-than-temporary impairment and determined there were no impairment charges to be recorded in the third quarter
of 2009. The Company held $6.1 million in corporate debt securities which had a net unrealized gain of $60,000 at September 30, 2009, compared to a net unrealized loss of $(377,000) at June 30, 2009. These investments are considered
investment grade securities and the Company has been, and expects to continue to be paid as agreed. The Company held $8.9 million privately held collateralized mortgage obligations at September 30, 2009. Management prepares a more extensive
review of these securities to determine possible impairment. All of these securities are investment grade quality as of September 30, 2009 and the Company has been, and expects to continue to be paid as agreed. At September 30, 2009, the
total available for sale securities portfolio reflected a net unrealized gain of $2.9 million compared to a net unrealized gain of $581,000 at December 31, 2008.

Loans Held for Sale:Loans held for sale increased $797,000 to $921,000 at September 30, 2009 from $124,000 at December 31, 2008, which is attributable to the increase in refinance
activity in one-to-four-family residential mortgages that are sold to the secondary market. This activity has started to decrease in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the first six months of the year, and the Company anticipates that this trend
will continue.

Net Loans:Net loans increased $26.5 million, or 12.1%, to $246.4 million at September 30, 2009
compared to $219.9 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to the implementation of the mortgage warehouse lending program in May of 2009, as well as an increase in commercial real estate loans. One-to-four-family residential real estate
loans have continued to decrease due to the refinance activity in the first nine months of 2009 with a majority of our new loans being sold in the secondary market.

Commercial real estate loans increased $10.8 million, or 13.4%, to $91.3 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $80.5 million at December 31, 2008. The Bank has continued to see a demand for
commercial real estate lending, primarily in the Michigan City and Porter County markets served. The largest commercial real estate loan originated in the first nine months of 2009 was in the amount of $2.5 million and was for the purchase of an
existing hotel in Valparaiso, Indiana. There were $5.0 million in commercial construction loans that converted to permanent commercial real estate loans in the third quarter of 2009. The largest construction loan which converted to permanent
financing was a $2.8 million apartment complex in Michigan City, Indiana. The majority of the real estate loans originated have fixed rates of interest for five years.

Commercial loans decreased $1.9 million, or 9.8%, to $17.5 million at September 30, 2009 compared
to $19.4 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to a decrease in loans to states and political subdivisions of $1.0 million. The decrease was attributable to the maturity and payoff of a local tax anticipation warrant. The remaining
decrease in commercial loans was due to loans that paid off during the first nine months of 2009 and due to normal payments.

Total
construction loans decreased $3.4 million, or 43.7%, to $4.4 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $7.7 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to $5.0 million in commercial construction loans that converted to permanent financing
and are reflected in the commercial real estate totals. There was a decrease in residential construction loans of $1.8 million, or 48.2%, to $1.9 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $3.7 million at December 31, 2008. These loans
converted to permanent financing or were sold to the secondary market.

Mortgage warehouse loans increased $32.8 million at September 30,
2009, due to the establishment of the mortgage warehouse lending division at the Bank. In May of 2009, the Company introduced the new mortgage warehousing line of business, headed up by an individual brought into the organization with an extensive
background in this field. This business line has approved specific mortgage companies through which individual mortgage loans are originated by the mortgage company and funded by the Bank, as a secured borrowing with pledge of collateral under the
Banks agreement with the mortgage company. Each individual mortgage is assigned to The La Porte Savings Bank until the loan is sold to the secondary market by the mortgage company. In addition, the Bank takes possession of each original note
and forwards such note to the end investor once the mortgage company has sold the loan. These individual loans are typically sold by the mortgage company within 30 days and are seldom held more than 90 days. Interest income is accrued during this
period and fee income for each loan sold is collected when the loan is sold. Agency eligible, governmental (FHA insured or VA guaranteed) and jumbo residential mortgage loans that are secured by mortgages placed on existing one-to four-family
dwellings will be allowed to be purchased and placed in the warehouse line.

One-to-four-family residential loans decreased $10.3 million, or
12.1%, to $75.1 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $85.5 million at December 31, 2008, primarily attributable to the increase in refinance activity in the first nine months of 2009. The Bank has continued to sell the majority of its
fixed rate one-to-four-family residential real estate loans originated in the secondary market, which along with the repayment and refinance activity has accounted for the decrease.

Consumer and home equity loans, including indirect automobile loans, decreased $1.5 million, or 5.2%, to $27.7 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $29.2 million at December 31, 2008,
primarily due to a decrease in indirect automobile loans. At September 30, 2009, indirect automobile loans decreased $949,000, or 15.6%, to $5.1 million compared to $6.1 million at December 31, 2008, which is attributable to
managements decision to decrease our exposure in this type of lending over the last several years. Home equity lines of credit increased $530,000 in the first nine months of 2009; however, fixed home equity loans decreased $834,000. In the
third quarter of 2009, management lowered the maximum loan-to-value ratio to 70% from 80% for its interest only home equity product. This policy change was made due to the decline in home values we have observed over the last year. The demand for
consumer and home equity loans remains low due to the general economic conditions in the market.

The allowance for loan losses was $2.5
million at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. The allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio was 1.00% at September 30, 2009 compared to 1.13% at December 31, 2008, and decreased primarily due to the increase in the
mortgage warehouse division loans of $32.8 million. We have never experienced a loss on a mortgage warehouse loan. The reserve for the mortgage warehouse loans was based primarily on the historical one-to-four-family residential loan portfolio
historical loss ratio, which is the lowest loss ratio in the loan portfolio. Management believes the reserve established for the warehouse portfolio is adequate given the repurchase agreement that is in place with the mortgage companies, in addition
to a separate fidelity and fraudulent mortgage insurance bond that was purchased by the Bank for the division. If mortgage warehouse loans would have been excluded from our analysis, the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio would have been
1.15% at September 30, 2009. Total nonperforming loans to total loans ratio was 2.78% at September 30, 2009 compared to 3.04% at December 31, 2008. Total nonperforming loans were $6.9 million at September 30, 2009 compared to
$6.8 million at December 31, 2008.

Other Real Estate Owned:Other real estate owned decreased $512,000, or 55.6%, to
$409,000 at September 30, 2009 compared to $921,000 at December 31, 2008, primarily due to the sale of several properties. At September 30, 2009 the Company held three properties in other real estate owned, all of which are
one-to-four-family residential homes.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:The Companys goodwill totaled $8.4
million at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. FASB ASC 350 (SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets), requires goodwill to be tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances
indicate that an asset might be impaired, by comparing the fair value of such goodwill to its recorded or carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the fair value, an impairment charge must be recorded in an amount equal to the
excess. The first annual impairment review of the $8.4 million of goodwill previously recorded was performed in the fourth quarter of 2008 and based on the opinion of an independent third party specialist; no goodwill impairment was recognized by
the Company.

As the Companys stock price per common share is currently less than its book value per common share, management updated
the fair value assessment at the end of both the first and second quarters of 2009 by the same independent third party specialist that performed the annual testing. The updated assessment of the fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit,
which is defined as the Company as a whole, was prepared by updating the discounted cash flow analysis used in the preparation of the year-end assessment. The updated discounted cash flow analysis incorporated the June 30, 2009 financial data
adjusted for the completion of a second step conversion. Based on the opinion of the independent third party specialist, the value pursuant to the discounted cash flow approach as of June 30, 2009 was above the value reached in the year-end
assessment and therefore no goodwill impairment was recognized by the Company. The Companys stock price has not significantly changed from the previous analysis and earnings have continued to increase therefore, management determined that an
updated analysis from an independent third party as of the end of the third quarter was not necessary at this time. A full independent review will be done to test the goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter. As the Companys stock price
per common share is currently less than its book value per common share, it is reasonably possible that management may conclude that goodwill, totaling $8.4 million at September 30, 2009, is impaired as a result of a future assessment. If our
goodwill is determined to be impaired, the related charge to earnings could be material.

Deposits:Total deposits
increased $21.5 million, or 9.1%, to $256.3 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $234.8 million at December 31, 2008, which is attributable to increases in all deposit categories. The largest increase was in the certificate of deposit
and individual retirement accounts, which increased $8.3 million in the first nine months of 2009. Retail certificates of deposit and IRAs less than $100,000 increased $4.1 million and those greater than $100,000 increased $4.0 million. The interest
rates offered on these deposits remain competitive with the local institutions in order to provide funding for the increased loan demand. The Bank became a member of the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) program in 2009 as an
additional source of funding. This service allows network members to offer customers up to $50 million in FDIC insurance as a means to obtain funding; attract, grow, and retain customer relationships; and reduce collateralization costs. CDARS also
allows member banks to purchase funds at competitive rates without collateralization or credit limits. Additionally, it enables members to place excess deposits with other members and to earn fee income in the process, all while
maintaining complete control over our customer relationships. These funds are considered brokered certificates of deposit and at September 30, 2009 total CDARS certificates of deposit totaled $168,000. Although we are not relying on this source
of funds at this time, this program will be one of the sources of funding for the mortgage warehouse program, if necessary. The Company also increased balances in savings and money market accounts $6.5 million and increased interest bearing demand
deposits $3.3 million at September 30, 2009 compared to December 31, 2008. Non-interest bearing demand deposits also increased $3.4 million at September 30, 2009. The growth in deposits has been consistent at all branch locations,
with the new Westville branch having the greatest percentage growth. There have been two major marketing campaigns as well as increased business development efforts in 2009, which may have contributed to the increase in deposits.

Borrowed Funds:Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, or FHLBI, borrowings
decreased $20.6 million, or 26.2%, at September 30, 2009 compared to December 31, 2009, primarily due to a shift in the funding sources to the Federal Reserve discount window, as well as the early retirement of $7.5 million FHLBI advances
in June of 2009 and the increase in deposits. Overnight borrowings at the Federal Reserve discount window increased $8.8 million at September 30, 2009 compared to December 31, 2008. Also contributing to the decrease in FHLBI borrowings was
the increase in FDIC guaranteed unsecured debt of $4.8 million at June 30, 2009 compared to December 31, 2008. During February 2009, the Bank issued a $5.0 million note due February 15, 2012 under the FDIC Temporary Debt Guarantee
Program. The note bears an interest rate of 2.74% in addition to the 100 basis point FDIC guarantee fee paid by the Bank. All legal and placement fees associated with this transaction were capitalized as debt issuance costs and will be amortized to
interest expense over the repayment period.

Total Shareholders Equity:Total shareholders equity increased
$3.0 million, or 6.5%, to $49.1 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $46.1 million at December 31, 2008. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in net income of $1.6 million and an increase in other comprehensive
income of $1.5 million, partially offset by stock repurchases of $131,000 during the first nine months of 2009. The increase in other comprehensive income was primarily due to the continued decrease in interest rates during the first nine months of
2009 and its positive impact on the market values on securities held in the Companys available-for-sale investment portfolio at September 30, 2009.

Comparison of Operating Results for Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008

Net Income:Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 increased $1.6 million, or 156.0%, to $589,000 compared to a net loss of $1.1 million for the same prior year period. This
increase is primarily due to a $1.5 million other-than-temporary impairment charge recorded in the three month period ending September 30, 2008, relating to Freddie Mac Preferred stock and Leman Brothers Holdings Inc. debt securities held in
the Banks securities portfolio. Also contributing to the increase in net income is an increase in net interest income of $211,000, compared to the prior year period; primarily due to the mortgage warehousing line of business and the increased
yield that portfolio has contributed. The Company also had a decrease of $190,000 in the provision for loan losses during the third quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year period.

Net Interest Income:Net interest income increased $211,000, or 8.2%, to $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30,
2009 compared to $2.6 million for the same prior year period, primarily due to an increase in net average interest-earning assets of $10.4 million. This increase is attributable to the increase in the average balance on the mortgage warehouse loans
of $30.3 million, in addition to the increase in average noninterest bearing deposits of $5.8 million for the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same prior year period. The net interest spread remained constant at 2.90% for both comparable time
periods.

Interest and Dividend Income:There was no significant change in total interest and dividend income for the
three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period, however there was an increase in loan income offset by a decrease in interest income from the securities portfolio. This shift was primarily due to the new mortgage
warehousing line of business.

Interest income on loans, including fees, increased $187,000, or 5.3%, for the three months ended
September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year period, due to the increase in average loans of $28.9 million. This is due to the increase in the average balance of mortgage warehouse loans of $30.3 million over the same time period. The
annualized average yield on average loans decreased 47 basis points to 6.11% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to 6.58% for the same prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in prime rate and its impact on variable
rate loans as well as the pricing on new and renewed loans. Also impacting this decrease in loan yield was the increase in non-accrual loans during the three months ended September 30, 2009, which lowered the annualized average loan yield by 13
basis points, compared to the prior year. Partially offsetting the decrease in the overall loan yield is the yield on the mortgage warehouse loans, which were not being originated in the same prior year period. The annualized average yield earned on
those loans for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 was 7.70%.

Interest income from taxable securities decreased $318,000, or 27.2%, primarily due to a decrease in the
average balance of taxable securities of $15.2 million in addition to a 65 basis point decrease in the annualized average yield. The decrease in the average balance was primarily due to a shift to tax exempt securities of $11.6 million over the same
time period, and also the need to fund the mortgage warehouse loans. Management made the decision to increase the municipal securities portfolio given the tax advantage and the yield spreads when compared to taxable securities. Interest income from
tax exempt securities increased $124,000, or 248.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period.

Dividend income from Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI) stock decreased $20,000, or 36.4%, to $35,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $55,000 for the same prior year period. The FHLBI has decreased
the dividend paid due to impairment charges that they have recorded attributable to their private label mortgage backed securities. Should the decision be made to suspend dividend payments on the FHLBI stock at some point in the future, it would
have a negative impact on the Companys earnings.

Interest Expense:Interest expense decreased $246,000, or
10.9%, to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $2.3 million for the same prior year period. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in the annualized cost of average interest-bearing liabilities
of 48 basis points to 2.68% from 3.16%. Contributing to this decrease is the continued decline in interest rates offered on all deposit products as well as the decrease in the average balance of FHLBI advances and the decrease in the average
annualized cost of borrowing.

The annualized average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 45 basis points to 2.13% for the three
months ended September 30, 2009 compared to 2.58% for the same prior year period, primarily due to a 63 basis point decrease in the cost of certificates of deposit and IRA time deposits. This decrease is primarily due to the overall decrease in
interest rates offered for new or renewed deposits during the third quarter of 2009 compared to the interest rates on maturing deposits. Interest rates offered on savings deposits, NOW and money market accounts each declined 14 basis points over the
same time period.

Interest expense on FHLBI advances decreased $136,000, or 17.0%, in the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared
to the same prior year period, primarily due to a decrease of 28 basis points in the average cost as well as a decrease of $7.9 million in the average balance. The decrease in both the balance and the average cost was primarily due to the early
retirement of $7.5 million FHLBI advances maturing in 2010 at a rate of 5.97%, in the second quarter of 2009. Interest expense on the FDIC guaranteed unsecured debt increased $51,000 in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same prior year
period since this debt originated in February 2009.

Provision for Loan Losses:The Bank recognizes a provision for loan losses, which
is charged to earnings, at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers
historical loan loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information and
prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events occur. After an evaluation of these factors,
management recognized a provision for loan losses of $184,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $374,000 for the same prior year period. Net charge-offs for the same periods were $308,000 and $106,000 respectively. The
$308,000 in net charge-offs in the three months ended September 30, 2009 had all been specifically reserved for previously in the allowance for loan losses. The provision for the prior year period was significantly higher primarily due to one
commercial and industrial loan acquired through the City Savings acquisition which at that time was deemed to have a risk of loss as a result of concerns with the documentation supporting an SBA guarantee and accordingly a $250,000 specific reserve
was provided in the allowance for loan losses that period. Management was subsequently successful in collecting the guarantee and this specific allowance was reversed. One of the factors management considers when evaluating the level of the
allowance for loan losses is the historical loan loss experience and given the overall economic concerns we elected to rely on more recent loan loss experience to establish their minimum reserve ratios for the general loan pools, which resulted in
an increase in the provision.

Noninterest Income:Noninterest income increased $1.6 million, or 205.9%, for the three
months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to the $1.5 million in other-than-temporary impairment charges recorded in the third quarter of 2008. Also contributing to the increase in noninterest income
was an increase in the gain on mortgage banking activities of $75,000, due to the increase in refinance activity compared to the prior year period. There was an increase in the net gain on the sale of securities of $59,000 for the third quarter of
2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to the sale of a $1.6 million FHLB bond maturing in 2014 in order to swap into municipal securities. Warehouse loan fees increased $106,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009
compared to the prior year period, due to the new mortgage warehouse line of business that started in the second quarter of 2009.

Partially
offsetting these increases in noninterest income in the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the same prior year period was a decrease in the gain on the sale of other assets of $137,000. This is attributable to the sale of other real estate at a
loss in the current quarter, and in the prior year period two other real estate properties were sold at a gain. Brokerage fee income also decreased $29,000 in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the same prior year period due to the termination of
the Banks retail brokerage division in the first quarter of 2009.

Noninterest Expense:Noninterest expense
increased $79,000, or 3.1%, in the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $131,000, or 9.9%. The increase is attributable to the additional
salary and bonus for three full-time positions added in the mortgage warehouse division, in addition to the hiring of an Assistant Vice President of Mortgage Lending in the third quarter of 2009. The current head of the mortgage department will be
retiring after year-end and the replacement was hired to allow for a smooth transition for that division. Occupancy expense remained relatively constant compared to the prior year period with a slight decrease of $14,000. Advertising expense
increased $29,000 due to a special checking account campaign and several other promotions held during the third quarter of 2009. Also contributing to the increase was an increase in FDIC insurance of $73,000, due to the increase in premium rates set
by the FDIC for 2009. The FDIC did not continue the special assessment that it imposed in the second quarter of 2009 into the third quarter, however should they elect to impose a special assessment in the future, we would expect this to negatively
impact earnings.

Partially offsetting these increases in noninterest expense in the three months ended September 30,
2009 compared to the same prior year period was a decrease in the amortization of intangibles of $25,000 due to the accelerated method used at the acquisition of City Savings Financial in 2007. Bank examination fees decreased $15,000 due to the
timing of internal audit schedule and fees paid in the third quarter of 2009. Other expenses decreased $101,000, or 27.7%, primarily due to a decrease in collection expenses of $68,000. In the prior year period delinquent taxes on foreclosed
properties were paid in the amount of $80,000. General supplies decreased $11,000 due to timing of the ordering of supplies. Attorney fees decreased $8,000 from the prior year period due to the collection activity in the prior year period.

Income Taxes:Income tax expense increased $249,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the
same prior year period, primarily due to the increase in income before income taxes of $1.9 million. The effective tax rate was 20.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to a tax benefit of (8.5%) for the same prior year
period. The effective tax rate was significantly higher during the current three month period compared to prior year period due to a lower level of income tax exempt income.

Comparison of Operating Results for Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008

Net Income:Net income increased $2.1 million, or 427.3%, to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of ($483,000) for the same prior year period. This
increase is primarily due to a $1.5 million other-than-temporary impairment charge recorded in the prior year period, relating to Freddie Mac Preferred stock and Leman Brothers Holdings Inc. debt securities held in the Banks securities
portfolio. Also contributing to the increase in earnings was an increase in net interest income of $343,000 primarily due to the opening of a new mortgage warehousing line of business in May 2009. The Company saw a significant increase of $537,000
in gain on mortgage banking activities in the first nine months of 2009 due to the continued decline in interest rates during the same time period, resulting in the increase in the one-to-four-family residential mortgage refinance activity compared
to the prior year period. During the first nine months of 2009, the Company recorded an increase in net security gains of $425,000 compared to the prior year period. The net gain was offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $347,000,
primarily due to a prepayment penalty fee of $427,000 paid to retire an FHLBI advance at an above market interest rate. The Company also experienced an increase of $433,000 in FDIC insurance expense due to the increases in the assessments as
compared to the prior year period.

Net Interest Income:Net interest income increased $343,000, or 4.6%, to $7.8
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $7.5 million for the same prior year period, primarily due to an increase in net interest-earning assets of $5.6 million. This increase is attributable to the increase in the
average balance on the mortgage warehouse loans of $14.1 million, in addition to the increase in average noninterest bearing deposits of $4.1 million for the same time periods. The net interest spread increased 2 basis points to 2.75% from 2.73%.

Interest and Dividend Income:Interest and dividend income decreased $658,000, or 4.5%, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to the continued decline in interest rates and the impact this had on the yield on average interest-earning assets.

Interest income on loans, including fees, decreased $295,000, or 2.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year period,
primarily attributable to the decrease in the annualized average loan yield of 63 basis points, from 6.66% to 6.03%, primarily due to the decrease in prime rate and its impact on variable rate loans as well as the pricing on new and renewed loans.
Also impacting this decrease in the loan yield is the increase in non-accrual loans, which lowered the annualized average loan yield by 9 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year. Partially offsetting
the decrease in the loan yield was the yield on mortgage warehouse loans. The Bank started originating these loans on or around May 15, 2009 and the annualized average yield earned on those loans for the first nine months of 2009 was 7.60%,
with an average YTD balance of $14.1 million.

Interest income from taxable securities decreased $427,000, or 12.4%, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a 42 basis point decrease in the annualized average yield. There was also a decrease in the nine month average balance of $4.2 million compared to the prior
year period. The decrease in the average balance is primarily due to a shift to tax exempt securities of $5.4 million over the same time period. Management made the decision to increase the municipal securities portfolio given the tax advantage and
the yield spreads when compared to taxable securities. The annualized average yield earned on tax exempt securities increased 55 basis points in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same prior year period.

Dividend income from Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI) stock decreased $59,000, or 37.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009
compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to the decrease in the annualized average yield from 5.06% to 3.17%. The FHBLI has decreased the dividend paid due to impairment charges that they have recorded attributable to their
private label mortgage backed securities. Should the decision be made to suspend dividend payments on the FHLBI stock at some point in the future, it would have a negative impact on the Companys earnings.

Interest Expense:Interest expense decreased $1.0 million, or 13.8%, to $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2009 compared to $7.3 million for the same prior year period. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in the annualized cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of 56 basis points, offset partially by an increase in the nine
month average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $9.9 million over the same time period. Contributing to this decrease is the continued decline in interest rates offered on all deposit products as well as the decrease in the cost of
borrowings.

The annualized average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 59 basis points to 2.23% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 compared to 2.82% for the same prior year period, primarily due to an overall decrease in interest rates on maturing certificates of deposit and IRA time deposits. Management also lowered interest rates paid on savings
deposits, NOW and money market accounts over the same time period.

Interest expense on FHLBI advances decreased $205,000, or 8.6%, for the
first nine months of 2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to a decrease of 27 basis points in the average cost as well as a decrease of $2.1 million in the average balance. The decrease in both the balance and the
average cost was primarily due to the early retirement of $7.5 million FHLBI advances maturing in 2010 at a rate of 5.97% in the second quarter of 2009. Interest expense on the subordinated debentures decreased 132 basis points to 5.07% from 6.39%
in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same prior year period. At inception, the interest rate on the debenture adjusted quarterly at the rate of the three month LIBOR plus 3.10%. On April 15, 2009 the Company executed an interest
rate swap against the $5.0 million floating rate debentures for five years at an effective fixed rate of 5.54%. Management took this action in order to hedge against a potential interest rate increase over the next five years. Interest expense on
the FDIC guaranteed unsecured debt increased $127,000 in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same prior year period since this debt originated in February 2009 at an annualized cost of 4.13%.

Provision for Loan Losses:The Bank recognizes a provision for loan losses, which
is charged to earnings, at a level necessary to absorb known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers
historical loan loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group information and
prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events occur. After an evaluation of these factors,
management recognized a provision for loan losses of $442,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $466,000 for the same prior year period. Net charge-offs for the same periods were $468,000 and $218,000 respectively. Of the
$468,000 in net charge-offs in the first nine months of 2009, $439,000 had been specifically reserved for previously in the allowance for loan losses. The provision for the prior year period was higher primarily due to one commercial and industrial
loan acquired through the City Savings acquisition which at that time was deemed to have a risk of loss as a result of concerns with the documentation supporting an SBA guarantee and accordingly a $250,000 specific reserve was provided in the
allowance for loan losses that period. Management was subsequently successful in collecting the guarantee and this specific allowance was reversed. One of the factors management considers when evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses is
the historical loan loss experience and given the overall economic concerns we elected to rely on more recent loan loss experience to establish their minimum reserve ratios for the general loan pools, which resulted in an increase in the provision.

Noninterest Income:Noninterest income increased $2.4 million, or 430.5%, for the nine months ended September 30,
2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to the $1.7 million in other-than-temporary impairment charges recorded in 2008. Also contributing to the increase in noninterest income was an increase in the gain on mortgage banking
activities of $537,000, due to the increase in refinance activity compared to the prior year period. There was an increase in the net gain on the sale of securities of $425,000 for the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same prior year
period, primarily due to the sale of a $1.6 million FHLB bond maturing in 2014 in order to move into municipal securities. Warehouse loan fees increased $165,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year period,
due to the new mortgage warehouse line of business that started in the second quarter of 2009. ATM and debit card fee income increased $13,000 due to increased usage at many of our locations.

Partially offsetting these increases in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period was a
decrease in the gain on the sale of other assets of $206,000. This is attributable to the sale of other real estate at a loss, as well as write-downs of existing OREO properties to fair market value compared to the prior year period. There was a
decrease in brokerage fee income of $128,000 due to the termination of the Banks retail brokerage division in the first quarter of 2009. There was a decrease in trust fee income of $8,000 for the first nine months of 2009 compared to the prior
year period, attributable to a decrease in assets under management. On September 25, 2009, The LaPorte Savings Bank (Bank), a subsidiary of LaPorte Bancorp, Inc., entered into a referral agreement with Harbour Trust & Investment
Management Company, Michigan City, Indiana (HTC) to provide ongoing trust services to its client base. After an extensive review by management, it was determined that the best way to service the Banks trust customers was to enter into this
agreement with Harbour Trust & Investment Management Company rather than continue offering these services through an in-house Trust Division. As of September 25, 2009, the Bank managed $18.9 million in trust assets. There was a
decrease in earnings on life insurance of $35,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year period, due to a one-time adjustment that was made when the Bank completed a 1035 exchange on a number of insurance
policies it owned. Management made the decision to exchange approximately $4.1 million of life insurance from two existing insurance carriers over to another carrier that has the highest credit rating issued. Loan servicing fees decreased $56,000
due to an increase in refinance activity and the resulting increase in the amortization of the servicing rights associated with the loans that are paid off.

Noninterest Expense:Noninterest expense increased $347,000, or 4.3%, in the nine
months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the $427,000 prepayment penalty fee assessed to retire the FHLBI advance with a stated maturity in 2010. There was also an increase in FDIC insurance of
$433,000, attributable to the substantial increase in premium rates set by the FDIC for 2009, along with the special assessment of $276,000 in the second quarter of 2009, which was not applicable in the same prior year period. Should the FDIC elect
to impose a special assessment in the future we would expect this to negatively impact earnings. Data processing costs increased $38,000 in the first nine months of 2009 primarily due to an increase in annual maintenance costs due to the addition of
Check 21 and fraud detection services as well as the initial expenses associated with the new mortgage warehousing division. Advertising expense increased $27,000 due to a special checking account campaign and several other promotions and billboard
campaigns held during the year.

Partially offsetting these increases in noninterest expense in the first nine months of 2009 as compared to
the prior year period was a decrease in salaries and wages of $243,000, or 5.7%. This decrease was primarily due to the termination of one of the Banks post retirement life insurance benefit plans that it had established for a limited number
of exempt employees. The Bank had a liability recorded in connection with this plan and as a result of the plan termination the liability was reversed during the second quarter of 2009 resulting in a $173,000 decrease in the expense when compared to
the prior year period. The termination will result in an annual savings of approximately $32,000 in addition to this one-time benefit. Also contributing to the decrease in salaries and benefits is an increase in the deferred loan origination costs
of $148,000 from the prior year period due to the increase in loan origination and refinance activity. Amortization of intangibles decreased $80,000, primarily due to the core deposit intangible asset being amortized into expense on an accelerated
basis. Bank examination expense decreased $50,000, primarily due to additional costs attributed to the first external audit and annual SEC reporting as a public company in the first quarter of 2008.

Other expenses decreased $199,000 compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in collection and OREO related expenses of $84,000 due to a
large payment for delinquent taxes on foreclosed properties in the first nine months of 2008 compared to 2009. There was also a decrease in legal and consulting fees of $37,000, primarily due to the attorney fees associated with the first annual
meeting and SEC reporting in the prior year period. There was a decrease in general supplies of $30,000 primarily due to additional supplies purchased for the new Westville branch office in the prior year period. Postage decreased $16,000 due to the
implementation of Check 21 during the third quarter of 2008 as well as an increase in the number of customers receiving e-statements. There was a decrease in fraud expense of $19,000 compared to the same prior year period, attributable to a rise in
debit card fraud activity during the first nine months of 2008 compared to 2009.

Income Taxes:Income tax expense
increased $328,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to the increase in income before taxes of $2.4 million. Partially offsetting this increase was the beneficial tax treatment of
the reversal of the post retirement life insurance plan expense. A tax deduction had not previously been recorded for this expense and therefore the reversal did not have a tax impact. The effective tax rate was 18.1% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 compared to 4.8% for the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Maintenance of adequate liquidity requires that sufficient resources be available at all times to meet cash flow requirements of the Company. Liquidity in a banking institution is required primarily to
provide for deposit withdrawals and the credit needs of customers and to take advantage of investment opportunities as they arise. A bank may achieve desired liquidity from both assets and liabilities. Cash and deposits held in other financial
institutions, Federal funds sold, other short term investments in interest-bearing time deposits in other financial institutions and securities available-for-sale, maturing loans and investments, payments of principal and interest on loans and
investments, and potential loan sales are sources of asset liquidity. Deposit growth and access to credit lines established with correspondent banks, the Federal Home Loan Bank and market sources of funds are sources of liability liquidity. The
Company reviews its liquidity position on a regular basis based upon its current position and expected trends of loans and deposits. The policy of the Board of Directors is to maintain sufficient capital at not less than the
well-capitalized thresholds established by banking regulators. Management believes that the Company maintains adequate sources of liquidity to meet its liquidity needs.

The Companys liquid assets, defined as cash and due from financial institutions and the market value of unpledged securities available-for-sale totaled $33.8 million at September 30, 2009 and
constituted 8.5% of total assets at that date compared to $62.8 million, or 17.0%, of total assets at December 31, 2008.

The Company
also maintains lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The total of these lines of credit were $63.0 million at September 30, 2009, of which $58.1 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances were outstanding. The Company has additional
securities and certain approved real estate loans available to pledge as collateral in order to increase our lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank. At September 30, 2009, we had $29.5 million in unpledged securities available for
sale. The Company actively utilizes its borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank to manage liquidity and to provide a funding alternative to time deposits, if the Federal Home Loan Banks rates and terms are more favorable. The
advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank can have maturities from overnight to multiple years. At September 30, 2009, $28.8 million of these advances were due within one year and $29.3 million had maturities greater than a year.

The Company also utilizes the Federal Reserve discount window as a source of short-term funding. At September 30, 2009, the Companys overnight
borrowings with the Federal Reserve discount window totaled $9.5 million. The Companys borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve discount window is based on the collateral value of pledged securities. The collateral value of securities pledged
to the Federal Reserve discount window at September 30, 2009 totaled $46.8 million. At September 30, 2009, we had $29.5 million in unpledged securities available for sale.

Federal regulations establish guidelines for calculating risk-adjusted capital ratios and minimum ratio requirements. Under these regulations, banks are required to maintain a total risk-based
capital ratio of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets and a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio (primarily total shareholders equity less intangible assets) of at least 4.0% of risk-weighted assets. The Bank had total and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios
of 15.78% and 14.85% at September 30, 2009, and was well-capitalized under the regulatory guidelines.

In addition,
regulators have adopted a minimum leverage ratio standard for Tier 1 capital to average assets. The minimum ratio for top-rated institutions may be as low as 3%. However, regulatory agencies have stated that most institutions should maintain ratios
at least 1 to 2 percentage points above the 3% minimum. As of September 30, 2009, the Banks leverage ratio was 10.62%. Capital levels for the Bank remain above the established regulatory capital requirements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued



Impact of Inflation

The primary impact of inflation on the Bank is its effect on interest rates. The Banks primary source of income is net interest income, which is affected by changes in interest rates. The Bank
attempts to limit the impact of inflation on its net interest margin through management of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities and analyses of interest rate sensitivity. The effect of inflation on premises and equipment as well as on
noninterest expenses has not been significant for the periods presented.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Proper management of the interest rate sensitivity and maturities of our assets and liabilities is required
to protect and enhance our net interest margin and asset values, subject to market conditions. Interest rate sensitivity spread management is an important tool for achieving this objective and for developing ways in which to improve profitability.

The Company constantly monitors earning asset and deposit levels, developments and trends in interest rates, liquidity, capital adequacy and
marketplace opportunities. Management responds to all of these to protect and possibly enhance net interest income while managing risks within acceptable levels as set forth in the Companys policies. In addition, alternative business plans and
transactions are contemplated for their potential impact. This process is known as asset/liability management and is carried out by changing the maturities and relative proportions of the various types of loans, investments, deposits and borrowings
in the ways described above.

A commonly used tool to manage and analyze the interest rate sensitivity of a bank is a computer simulation
model. To quantify the extent of risks in both the Companys current position and in transactions it might make in the future, the Company uses a model to simulate the impact of different interest rate scenarios on net interest income. The
hypothetical impact of a 12 month nonparallel ramp (generally, a nonparallel change in interest rates of +/- 2.00%) and smaller incremental interest rate changes are modeled at least quarterly, representing the primary means the Company uses for
interest rate risk management decisions.

At September 30, 2009, given a +2.00% or 2.00% shock in interest rates, our model results
in the Companys net interest income for the next twelve months changing by $76,000, or 0.61%, and $(345,000), or (2.74)%, respectively.

The Company measures its economic value of equity at risk on a quarterly basis. Economic value of equity at risk measures the Companys exposure to changes in its economic value of equity due to changes in a forecast interest rate
environment. At September 30, 2009, given a +2.00% or -2.00% shock in interest rates, our model results in the Companys economic value of equity at risk for the next twelve months changing by (5.44)%, and (8.70)%, respectively.

When preparing its modeling, the Company makes significant assumptions about the lag in the rate of change in various asset and liability
categories. The Company bases its assumptions on past experience and comparisons with other banks, and tests the validity of its assumptions by reviewing actual results with projected expectations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company has adopted
disclosure controls and procedures designed to facilitate financial reporting. The Companys disclosure controls currently consist of communications among the Companys Chief Executive Officer, the Companys Chief Financial Officer
and each department head to identify any transactions, events, trends, risks or contingencies which may be material to its operations. These disclosure controls also contain certain elements of the Companys internal controls adopted in
connection with applicable accounting and regulatory guidelines. In addition, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Audit Committee and independent registered public accounting firm also meet on a quarterly basis to
discuss disclosure matters. The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and found
them to be effective.

The Company maintains internal control over financial reporting. There have not been any significant changes in such
internal control over financial reporting in the last quarter that has materially affected, or is likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of
September 30, 2009, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or its subsidiaries is a party other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to their respective businesses.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

As of September 30, 2009, there were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in the Companys Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2008 on Form 10-K filed on
March 31, 2009, except as set forth below. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Further, to the extent that any
of the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitutes forward-looking statements, the risk factor set forth below also is a cautionary statement identifying important factors that could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us.

Our Expenses Will Increase
As A Result Of Increases In FDIC Insurance Premiums

The FDIC imposes an assessment on all depository institutions for
deposit insurance. This assessment is based on the risk category of the institution and, prior to 2009, ranged from five to 43 basis points of the institutions deposits. On December 22, 2008, the FDIC published a final rule that raised
the current deposit insurance assessment rates uniformly for all institutions by 7 basis points (to a range from 12 to 50 basis points) effective for the first quarter of 2009. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC issued a final rule that revised the
way the FDIC would calculate federal deposit insurance assessment rates beginning in the second quarter of 2009 and thereafter. Under the new rule, the FDIC will first establish an institutions initial base assessment rate. This initial base
assessment rate will range, depending on the risk category of the institution, from 12 to 45 basis points. The FDIC will then adjust the initial base assessment (higher or lower) based upon an institutions levels of unsecured debt, secured
liabilities, and brokered deposits. The total base assessment rate will range from 7 to 77.5 basis points of the institutions deposits.

On May 22, 2009, the FDIC published a final rule that levies a special assessment on all insured institutions in efforts to rebuild the Deposit Insurance Fund and help maintain public confidence in
the banking system. The final rule establishes a special assessment of 5 basis points on the insured depository institutions assets, minus its Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009. The special assessment is capped at 10 basis points of an
institutions domestic deposits. The special assessment was collected by the FDIC on September 30, 2009.

On
September 29, 2009, the FDIC issued a proposed rule pursuant to which all insured depository institutions would be required to prepay their estimated assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009, and for all 2010, 2011 and 2012. Under the
proposed rule, this pre-payment would be due on December 30, 2009. Under the proposed rule, the assessment rate for the fourth quarter of 2009 and for 2010 would be based on each institutions total base assessment rate for the third
quarter of 2009, modified to assume that the assessment rate in effect on September 30, 2009 had been in effect for the entire third quarter, and the assessment rate for 2011 and 2012 would be equal to the modified third quarter assessment rate
plus an additional 3 basis points. In addition, each institutions base assessment rate for each period would be calculated using its third quarter assessment base, adjusted quarterly for an estimated 5% annual growth rate in the assessment
base through the end of 2012. If the proposed rule is passed, we would be required to make a payment of approximately $1.5 million to the FDIC on December 30, 2009, and to record the payment as a prepaid expense, which will be amortized to
expense over three years.
