EXPLANATORY NOTE This
Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (Form 10-Q/A) to the
Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange
commission (SEC) on May 16, 2005 reflects an amendment to Part I - Item 4 - Controls and
Procedures. The determination to amend Item 4 was made as a result of a request from the
SEC dated June 30, 2005 to clarify the results of managements evaluation of the effectiveness
of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. This Form 10-Q/A only amends Part I - Item 4 of the original filing. Although this Form 10-Q/A
contains all of the items required to be included in a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, no other
information in the original filing is amended hereby. In addition, pursuant to the rules of the
SEC, Item 6 of Part II has been amended to contain currently dated certifications from the
Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as required by sections 302
and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. These updated certifications are attached to this
Form 10-Q/A as exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32.

MONARCH COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC. 
 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION Monarch Community Bancorp, Inc. (the Corporation) was incorporated in 2002 under Maryland law to
hold all of the common stock of Monarch Community Bank (the Bank), formerly known as Branch
County Federal Savings and Loan Association. Prior to August 29, 2002, the Bank was a federally
chartered and insured mutual savings institution, which converted to a stock savings institution
effective August 29, 2002. In connection with the conversion, on August 29, 2002, the Corporation
sold 2,314,375 shares of its common stock in a subscription offering. Fifty percent of the net
proceeds from this offering were used to purchase all of the common stock of the Bank. On April 15, 2004, the Corporation completed the acquisition of MSB Financial, Inc., parent company
of Marshall Savings Bank. Accordingly, MSB Financial was merged with and into Monarch Community
Bancorp, Inc. On June 7, 2004, Marshall Savings Bank was merged with and into Monarch Community
Bank. The Corporation issued a total of 310,951 shares of its common stock and paid cash of $19.7
million to former MSB Financial stockholders. The cash paid in the transaction came from the
Corporations existing liquidity. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets purchased and the
liabilities assumed based upon the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase
accounting fair value adjustments are being amortized under various methods and over lives of the
corresponding assets and liabilities. Goodwill recorded for the acquisition amounted to $9.6
million. A Core Deposit Intangible of $2.1 million was recorded as part of the acquisition and is
being amortized on an accelerated basis over a period of 9.5 years. Monarch Community Bank provides a broad range of banking services to its primary market area of
Branch, Calhoun and Hillsdale counties in Michigan. The Bank operates six full service offices and
one drive-through only office. The Bank owns 100% of Community Services Group, Inc., which invests
in other entities, including 100% ownership of First Insurance Agency, a minority ownership in a
title agency, and a majority ownership in a limited liability company that reinsures private
mortgage insurance. First Insurance Agency is a licensed insurance agency established to allow for
the receipt of fees on insurance services provided to the Banks customers. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include the accounts of Monarch
Community Bank, Community Services Group, and First Insurance Agency. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated
financial statements for interim periods are unaudited; however, in the opinion of the
Corporations management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary
for a fair presentation of the Corporations financial position and results of operations have been
included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for
Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles in annual consolidated financial statements. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporations Form 10-KSB
for the year ended December 31, 2004 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year period. 6

 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Corporation accounts for stock option plans using the intrinsic value method. No compensation
cost related to stock options was recognized during 2005 or 2004, as all options granted had an
exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying common stock at the date
of the grant. Had compensation cost for stock options been measured using the fair value method,
the Corporations net income and basic and diluted earnings per share would have been the pro forma

financial statements of the Corporation and the accompanying notes. 7

##### Table of Contents



The Corporation is not aware of any market or institutional trends, events, or circumstances that
will have or are likely to have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources, or results of
operations except as discussed herein. Also, the Corporation is not aware of any current
recommendations by regulatory authorities that will have such effect if implemented. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. All statements regarding the expected financial
position, business and strategies are forward-looking statements and the Corporation intends for
them to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words anticipates, believes,
estimates, seeks, expects, plans, intends, and similar expressions, as they relate to the
Corporation or management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Corporation
believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable based
on our current beliefs and assumptions; however, these expectations may prove to be incorrect.
Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations include, but are not limited
to, changes in interest rates, changes in the relative difference between short and long-term
interest rates, general economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal
policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve
Board, the quality or composition of the loan or investment portfolios, including levels of
non-performing assets, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial
services in our market area, our operating costs and accounting principles and guidelines. These
risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and you
should not rely too much on these statements. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The nature of the financial services industry is such that, other than described below, the use of
estimates and management judgment is not likely to present a material risk to the financial
statements. In cases where estimates or management judgment are required, internal controls and
processes are established to provide assurance that such estimates and management judgments are
materially correct to the best of managements knowledge. Allowance for Loan Losses. Accounting for loan classifications, accrual status, and determination
of the allowance for loan losses is based on regulatory guidance. This guidance includes, but is
not limited to, generally accepted accounting principles, the uniform retail credit classification
and account management policy issued by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, the
joint policy statement on the allowance for loan losses methodologies issued by the Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council and guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Accordingly, the allowance for loan losses includes a reserve calculation based on an
evaluation of loans determined to be impaired, risk ratings, historical losses, loans past due,
collateral values and cost of disposal and other subjective factors. Goodwill.The original value of Goodwill was determined by allocating the purchase price to the
estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Periodically, Goodwill is tested
for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142. This test involves calculating the estimated fair
value of the reporting unit. Thus, the carrying value of Goodwill is subject to a high degree of
estimation and management judgment. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total Assets
Assets increased $6.6 million, or 2.4% to $282.0 million at March 31, 2005 compared to $275.4
million at December 31, 2004. Securities
Securities increased to $13.5 million at March 31, 2005 compared to $8.3 million at December 31,
2004. The increase was attributable to the purchase of securities as part of the ongoing
management of the Banks liquidity and investment portfolio. Loans
The Banks net loan portfolio decreased by $1.9 million, or 1%, from $219.3 million at December 31,
2004 to $217.4 million at March 31, 2005. The following table presents information concerning the
composition of our loan portfolio in dollar amounts and in percentages as of the dates indicated: 8

 The decreases noted in the table above were due to repayments on existing loans exceeding new
loan production including payoffs of certain problem loans that management encouraged. Management
expects future growth in the loan portfolio to come from increased originations of commercial real
estate and business loans as well as expanded geographic outreach facilitated by the acquisition.
The introduction of online mortgage origination is expected to expand the Banks mortgage lending
activities within its current market area by offering convenience to borrowers and realtors and may
lead to some originations in areas contiguous to the Banks current market. Deposits
Total deposits increased $9.0 million, or 5.4%, from $167.7 million at December 31, 2004 to $176.7
million at March 31, 2005. The increase consisted of a $3.3 million increase in checking and
savings accounts and a $5.7 million increase in certificates of deposit. Of the increase in
certificates of deposit, $2.0 million was in the form of brokered deposits. Brokered deposits have
been utilized to provide additional liquidity or reduce excess liquidity depending on current
conditions. Management expects future deposit growth to come from increased sales and marketing
efforts to attract lower cost savings and checking accounts as well as product enhancement
including the introduction of internet banking. Federal Home Loan Bank Advances
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances decreased $3.6 million from December 31, 2004 to March 31,
2005. The decrease was the result of the Bank repaying maturing advances. Management is attempting
to reduce it reliance on borrowed funds through the growth of deposits but should this strategy not
succeed management anticipates future borrowings to fund loan growth. See Net Interest Income
discussion below. Equity
Total equity was $39.6 million at March 31, 2005 compared to $39.4 million at December 31, 2004.
This represents 14.0% and 14.3% of total assets at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004,
respectively. The increased equity was the result of earnings for the quarter exceeding the
dividend payment. Management considers its equity position to be strong and has no plans or
intentions to increase equity other than by continued profitable operations. 9

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Interest Income
Net interest income before the provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2005
totaled $2.2 million and represented an increase of $881,000 compared to the same period one year
ago. The Corporations net interest margin increased from 2.87% for the quarter ended March 31,
2004 to 3.61% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The net interest margin for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 was positively impacted by the acquisition of lower costing deposit accounts
from MSB Financial as well as a general increase in short term market rates from the levels of a
year ago. Interest income from loans represented 94.6% of total interest income for the first
quarter of 2005 compared to 92.6% for the same period in 2004. The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the total dollar amount of interest income
from average interest-earning assets and the resultant yields, as well as the interest expense on
average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and rates. No tax equivalent
adjustments were made. Three Months Ended March 31,2005

 Provision for Loan Losses
The Bank reversed prior provision for loan losses of $385,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005
compared to $0 provision for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. The reversal of provisions was
possible due to the Bank receiving payoffs during the quarter on two loan relationships totaling
$1.5 million for which the bank had previously provided loan loss allowances of $535,000. Net
charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 totaled $480,000 compared to $74,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2004. The increased level of charge offs in 2005 was the result of the Bank
continuing to aggressively deal with problem loans as evidenced by the increase in real estate in
judgment at March 31, 2005. The allowance for loan losses was $5,520,000 at March 31, 2005 and $6,385,000 at December 31, 2004. The following table presents non-performing assets and certain asset quality ratios at March 31,

 Non-performing loans increased $2.7 million to $6.9 million at March 31, 2005 compared to $4.2
million at December 31, 2004. The increase is the result of a loan relationship totaling $4.2
million which was classified as non-performing at March 31, 2005 but was considered performing at
December 31, 2004. Notwithstanding the relationships status as performing at December 31, 2004,
the Bank established a loss allowance of $2.1 million at December 31, 2004. The appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed by management based upon our
evaluation of then-existing economic and business conditions affecting our key lending areas and
other conditions, such as credit quality trends (including trends in delinquencies, nonperforming
loans and foreclosed assets expected to result from existing conditions), collateral values, loan
volumes and concentrations, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments and recent loss
experience in particular segments of the portfolio that existed as of the balance sheet date and
the impact that these conditions were believed to have had on the collectibility of the loan.
Senior management reviews these conditions quarterly. To the extent that any of these conditions
is evidenced by a specifically identifiable problem credit or portfolio segment as of the
evaluation date, managements estimate of the effect of this condition may be reflected as a
specific allowance applicable to this credit or portfolio segment. The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates of losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Actual losses can vary significantly from the estimated amounts. Our methodology as described
permits adjustments to any loss factor used in the computation of the formula allowance in the
event that, in managements judgment, significant factors which affect the collectibility of the
portfolio as of the evaluation date are not reflected in the loss factors. By assessing the
estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis, we are able to adjust
specific and inherent loss estimates based upon any more recent information that has become
available. Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased by $20,000 to $505,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 as
compared to $485,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. Fees and service charges increased
$240,000, or 106.2%, due to the number of savings and checking accounts acquired. $174,000 of this
increase was due to increased overdraft fees. Loan servicing fees increased $56,000, or 98.3%, as a
result of the larger loan servicing portfolio created by the acquisition. Gain on sale of loans
decreased to $137,000 from $168,000 for the same period a year ago as mortgage banking activities
were reduced in 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. Management does not believe this downward
trend will continue in 2005, as it anticipates mortgage banking activities to be consistent with
2004 . Other income (loss) decreased $245,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 as compared to
the quarter ended March 31, 2004. This decrease is due to a write down of $275,000 the Bank
experienced on a REO property it acquired along with MSB Financial. The property had been valued,
based on appraisal, at $775,000. Based on the lack of marketability of the property, management
recently agreed to accept a $500,000 offer on the property. The property has not been sold as of
March 31, 2005. Investment service income of $13,000 and earnings on bank owned life insurance of
$21,000 helped offset the write down of REO. These two income contributors were not present in
2004. Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $869,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 2004. The primary reason for the increase was the additional 30 staff
members and 2 branches of the Marshall operations which were not part of Monarchs operations in
2004. Professional fees increased $ 38,000 due to increased supervisory examination expense,
employee recruiting expense and data processing consulting. Amortization of the core deposit
intangible amounted to $110,000 compared to $0 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. Federal Income Tax Expense
The provision for federal income tax increased $108,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005
compared to the same period a year ago due to the increased profits in 2005. LIQUIDITY The Banks liquidity, represented by cash, overnight funds and investments, is a product of our
operating, investing, and financing activities. The Banks primary sources of funds are deposits,
amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans, and funds provided from operations.
While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans are a relatively predictable source of
funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates,
economic conditions and competition. The 11

Bank also generates cash through borrowings. The Bank
utilizes Federal Home Loan Bank advances to leverage its capital base and provide funds for its
lending and investment activities, and to enhance its interest rate risk management. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess
liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a
longer-term basis, Monarch maintains a strategy of investing in various investments and lending
products. Monarch uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, to pay
maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals and to fund loan commitments. Certificates
of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 2005 totaled $53.5 million.
Management believes that a significant portion of these certificates of deposit will remain with
Monarch provided the Bank pays a rate of interest that is competitive both in the local and
national markets. If necessary, additional funding sources include additional deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank
advances. Deposits can be obtained in the local market area and from out of market sources;
however, this may require Monarch to offer interest rates higher than those of the competition. At
March 31, 2005 and based on current collateral levels, Monarch could borrow an additional $17.8
million from the Federal Home Loan Bank at prevailing interest rates. This borrowing capacity can
be increased in the future if Monarch pledges additional collateral to the Federal Home Loan Bank.
Monarch anticipates that it will continue to have sufficient funds, through deposits and
borrowings, to meet its current commitments. The Banks total cash and cash equivalents increased by $1.6 million during the three month period
ended March 31, 2005 compared to a $2.0 million decrease for the same period in 2004. The primary
provider of cash for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was an increase in deposits of $9.0 million.
Purchase of additional investment securities used $5.5 million of cash and repayment of FHLB
advances used another $3.4 million. The decrease in cash in 2004 was primarily the result of new
loan originations exceeding repayments and sales of loans. Management expects its primary source of
funds to be new deposit balances and its primary use of funds to be growth in loan balances. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS The Company has certain obligations and commitments to make future payments under contracts. At
March 31, 2005, the aggregate contractual obligations and commitments are: Contractual obligations Payments due by periodLess than

CAPITAL RESOURCES The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements. As of March 31, 2005, the Bank met
the regulatory standards to be classified as well capitalized. The Banks regulatory capital
ratios as of March 31, 2005 were as follows: tangible capital, 8.7%; leverage capital, 8.7%; and
total risk-based capital, 13.9%. The regulatory capital requirements to be considered well
capitalized are 3.0%, 5.0%, and 10.0%, respectively. Management considers the Banks capital to be
adequate to support anticipated growth and does not anticipate needing to seek additional capital
in the foreseeable future. 
 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND
QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Companys primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk (IRR). Interest rate risk refers
to the risk that changes in market interest rates might adversely affect the Companys net interest
income or the economic value of its portfolio of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet
contracts. Interest rate risk is primarily the result of an imbalance between the price sensitivity
of the Companys assets and its liabilities (including off-balance sheet contracts). Such
imbalances can be caused by differences in the maturity, repricing and coupon characteristics of
assets and liabilities, and options, such as loan prepayment options, interest rate caps and
floors, and deposit withdrawal options. These imbalances, in combination with movement in interest
rates, will alter the pattern of the Companys cash inflows and outflows, effecting the earnings
and economic value of the Company. The Companys primary tool for assessing IRR is the Office of Thrift Supervision Net Portfolio
Value (NPV) Model. The model uses scenario analysis to evaluate the IRR risk exposure of the Bank
by estimating the sensitivity of the Banks portfolios of assets, liabilities, and off-balance
sheet contracts to changes in market interest rates. To measure the sensitivity of the Banks NPV
to changes in interest rates, the NPV model estimates what would happen to the economic value of
each type of asset, liability, and off-balance sheet contract under six different interest rate
scenarios. The model estimates the NPV that would result following instantaneous, parallel shifts
in the Treasury yield curve of -300, -200, -100, +100, +200, +300 basis points. The OTS utilizes
guidelines based on the model to determine the level of IRR for the Bank. The levels, from least
risk to most risk, are; minimal, moderate, significant, high and imminent threat. Based on the
model, as of December 31, 2004 the Banks IRR level was regarded as minimal. Data from the model
as of March 31, 2005 is not yet available but management does not believe its IRR position has
significantly changed since December 31, 2004. The following table provides information about the Companys financial instruments that are
sensitive to changes in interest rates as of December 31, 2004. The Company had no derivative
instruments, or trading portfolio, as of that date. The expected maturity date values for loans
receivable, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities were calculated without adjusting
the contractual maturity dates for expectations of repayments. Expected maturity date values for
non-maturity, interest bearing deposits were based on the opportunity for repricing. Principal Amount Maturing In:Fair2005

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (As revised) 
 
 An
evaluation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) as of March 31, 2005, was carried out
under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Financial Officer and several other members of the Companys
senior management. The Companys
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that
the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures as currently in effect are effective in ensuring that the information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange
Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Companys management (including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. The Company
did have changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of
the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting. These changes relate to continuing to refine its Internal Loan Review Policy which
include controls to ensure the timely receipt of up to date Borrower financial information,
controls to ensure consistent and timely grading and re-grading of commercial loans, and
controls to ensure timely reporting to management any deterioration in credit quality that
would materially affect our calculation of the Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company intends to continually
review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and
to improve its controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that it may
discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all
material financial and non-financial information concerning the
Companys business. While the
Company believes the present design of its disclosure controls and procedures is effective to
achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its
disclosure controls and procedures.
