              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2004
                                   (UNAUDITED)
          Review of Interim Financial Statements

          The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the
          three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 have been reviewed by
          independent certified public accountants.  Their report on the review
          is attached as Exhibit 99 to the 10-Q filing.

Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

          The financial information presented at and for the three months ended
          March 31, 2004 and 2003 is unaudited.  Information presented at
          December 31, 2003 is condensed from audited year-end financial
          statements.  However, unaudited information reflects all adjustments
          (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the
          opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
          financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
          interim period.

Note 2.   Principles of Consolidation

          The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
          corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Fulton County National
          Bank & Trust Company and the Fulton County Community Development
          Corporation.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts
          have been eliminated.

Note 3.   Cash Flows

          For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the corporation has
          defined cash and cash equivalents as those amounts included in the
          balance sheet captions "cash and due from banks" and "federal funds
          sold".  As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
          No. 104, the corporation has elected to present the net increase or
          decrease in deposits in banks, loans and time deposits in the
          statements of cash flows.

Note 4.   Federal Income Taxes

          For financial reporting purposes the provision for loan losses charged
          to operating expense is based on management's judgment, whereas for
          federal income tax purposes, the amount allowable under present tax
          law is deducted.  Additionally, certain expenses are charged to
          operating expense in the period the liability is incurred for
          financial reporting purposes, whereas for federal income tax purposes,
          these expenses are deducted when paid.  As a result of these timing
          differences, deferred income taxes are provided in the financial
          statements.  Federal income taxes were computed after reducing pretax
          accounting income for nontaxable municipal and loan income.

Note 5.   Other Commitments

          In the normal course of business, the Corporation makes various
          commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities which are not
          reflected in the accompanying financial statements.  These commitments
          include various guarantees and commitments to extend credit and the
          Corporation does not anticipate any losses as a result of these
          transactions.

        There were no securities categorized "Held-to-maturity" or "Trading" at

Note 7. Comprehensive Income

        Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity from
        transactions and other events from nonowner sources.  It includes all
        changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and
        distributions to owners.

        Consequently, a "Statement of Comprehensive Income" has been included
        in this filing.

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

OVERVIEW

     Net after tax income for the first quarter of 2004 was $ 283,000 compared
to $ 507,000 for the same period in 2003, representing a decrease of $ 224,000,
or 44.2%.  Net income on an adjusted per share basis for the first three months
of 2004 was $ 0.57 compared to $ 1.03 per share realized during the first
quarter of 2003.

INTEREST INCOME

     Interest income for the first quarter of 2004 was $ 1,916,000 compared to
$ 2,305,000 earned during the same period in 2003, for a decrease of $ 389,000,
or 16.9%.  The decrease was due primarily to a significant decrease in the
average balance of loans and investments in 2004 compared to the same period in
2003.  Management expects moderate growth in the average balance of loans and
investments during the rest of 2004.  Management also expects average rates
earned on loans and investments to increase slowly over the rest of 2004.

INTEREST EXPENSE

     Interest expense for the first quarter of 2004 was $ 734,000, a decrease of
$ 115,000, or 13.5%.  The decrease was due primarily to a significant decrease
in the average balance of time deposits, which typically pay higher yields, and
a decrease in interest rates paid on deposits and short-term borrowings.
Management expects to control growth in the average balance of time deposits and
concentrate on increasing noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing
demand deposits and savings deposits.  Management also expects average rates
paid on deposits to slowly increase over the rest of 2004.

NET INTEREST MARGIN

     Net interest income is the difference between total interest income and
total interest expense.  Interest income is generated through earning assets,
which include loans, deposits with other banks, and investments.  Interest
income is dependent on many factors including the volume of earning assets;
level of interest rates; changes in interest rates; and volumes of nonperforming
loans.  The cost of funds varies with the volume of funds necessary to support
earning assets; rates paid to maintain deposits; rates paid on borrowed funds;
and level of interest-free deposits.

     The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2004 was 3.57% compared to
4.00% for the first quarter of 2003.  Liquidity and interest rate risk are
continuously monitored through Asset-Liability Committee reports.  Management
plans to protect its net interest margin by competitively pricing its loans and
deposits and by structuring interest-earning assets and liabilities so they can
be repriced in response to changes in market interest rates.

NONINTEREST INCOME

     First quarter 2004 noninterest income decreased to $ 163,000 from
$ 194,000, or 16.0%.  Service charges on deposits decreased $ 10,000, or 18.2%,
primarily due to a decrease in overdraft charges.  Other fee income decreased
$ 43,000, or 58.1%, primarily due to decreases in fee income on the sale of
mortgage loans to the Federal Home Loan Bank and fee income from a partnership
with a title insurance company.  Other noninterest income increased $ 18,000, or
27.7%, primarily due to a $ 13,000 gain on sale of student loans and a $ 4,000
gain on sale of other real estate owned.  Securities gains of $ 4,000 were
reported during the first quarter of 2004 while no securities gains or losses
were reported for the same period in 2003.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

     Noninterest expenses for the first quarter of 2004 totaled $ 1,014,000, an
increase of $ 45,000, or 4.6%, over the $ 969,000 for the first quarter of 2003.
Salaries and employee-related expenses increased $ 33,000, or 8.3%, primarily
due to merit pay increases and temporary full-time training of part-time staff..
Fixed asset expenses decreased less than 1.0%.  Other noninterest expenses
increased by $ 16,000, or 4.5%, primarily due to increases in data processing,
deferred director compensation, printing and supplies, and repossession and
collections costs.

INCOME TAXES

     The income tax provision for the first quarter of 2004 was $ 48,000
compared to $ 144,000 for the first quarter of 2003.  Effective tax rates
(compared to the marginal federal income tax bracket of 34% applicable to each
period) were as follows:

                               Three Months Ended
                                    March 31

                      2004                 2003
                      14.5%              22.1%

     Applicable income taxes changed between 2003 and 2004 because of changes in
pretax accounting income and taxable income.  The decrease in the effective
income tax rate for 2004 was primarily due to a significant decrease in pretax
accounting income in which taxable income was reduced further by tax-exempt
interest, the dividends received deduction for FNMA/FHLMC preferred stock and
non-taxable cash surrender value of life insurance.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     No provision for loan losses was made for the first three months of 2004
compared with $ 30,000 for the first three months of 2003.  Provisions were
based on management's evaluation of the adequacy of the reserve for possible
loan losses at March 31, 2004 and 2003 and represents amounts deemed necessary
to maintain the reserve at the appropriate level based on the quality of the
loan portfolio and economic conditions.  Management intends to maintain the
reserve at appropriate levels based on an ongoing evaluation of the loan
portfolio.

     The bank utilizes a comprehensive systematic review of its loan portfolio
on a quarterly basis in order to determine the adequacy of the allowance for
loan losses.  Each quarter the loan portfolio is categorized into various pools
as follows:

     Pool #1   Specific allowances for any individually identified
               problem loans
     Pool #2   Commercial
     Pool #3   Residential real estate
     Pool #4   Consumer demand and installment
     Pool #5   Farm loans

     Business lines of credit over $ 75,000, agribusiness borrowers with lending
relationships over $ 250,000 and commercial borrowers with lending relationships
over $ 500,000 are individually reviewed.  Also, loans that are 90 days or more
past due or have been previously classified as substandard are individually
reviewed.  Allocations to the allowance for loan losses are based upon
classifications assigned to those specific loans.

     Loan classifications utilized are based on past experience and are as
follows:

                              Allowance Factors
          Loss                   Charge-off
          Doubtful                  50%
          Substandard                5%
          Special Mention                 1%

     The remaining portion of the pools are evaluated as groups with allocations
made to the allowance based on historical loss experience, current and
anticipated trends in delinquencies, trends in volume and terms of loans,
concentrations of credit, and general economic conditions within the bank's
trading area.  Management is not aware of any problem loans that are indicative
of trends, events, or uncertainties that would significantly impact operations,
liquidity, or capital.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Assets

     Total assets on March 31, 2004 were $ 148,380,000 compared to $ 147,744,000
at December 31, 2003, an increase of 0.4%.  Management intends to contain growth
and concentrate on maintaining adequate profit margins.  Net loans on March 31,
2004 stood at $ 99,934,000, a decrease of 1.4% from $ 101,389,000 on December
31, 2003.  The loan loss reserve at March 31, 2004 was $ 1,893,000 and is
considered adequate, in management's judgment, to absorb possible loan losses on
existing loans.

     Liabilities

     Total deposits increased 1.5% to $ 112,804,000 as of March 31, 2004
compared with $ 111,125,000 at December 31, 2003.  Noninterest-bearing demand
deposits increased 2.1% and interest-bearing savings deposits increased 8.0%,
while interest-bearing time deposits decreased 2.5%.

     Capital

     Stockholders' equity was $ 16,913,000 at March 31, 2004 compared with
$ 16,278,000 at December 31, 2003, an increase of 3.90%.  Accumulated earnings
and a $ 465,000 decrease in net unrealized losses (net of tax effect) for the
first quarter of 2004 were partially offset by dividends declared and paid of
$ 113,000.  Total stockholders' equity represented 11.40% of total assets at
March 31, 2004.  Cash dividends of $0.23 were paid the first quarter of 2004 and
2003.  On July 20, 2000, the Board of Directors announced the approval of a plan
to purchase, in open market and privately negotiated transactions, up to 2% of
its shares of outstanding common stock.  Additionally, on December 18, 2003, the
company announced the approval of a plan to purchase, in open market and
privately negotiated transactions, up to 1,000 shares of outstanding common
stock.  As of March 31, 2004, the company had repurchased 2,185 shares,
representing 0.44% of its shares of outstanding common stock.  It is the
intention of management and the Board of Directors to continue to pay a fair
return on the stockholders' investment while retaining adequate earnings to
allow for continued growth.

          (b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or

          this quarterly report.

          4.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible
          for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures
          (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
          registrant and we have:

          (a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
               disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
               supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
               registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made
               known to us by others within those entities, particularly during
               the period in which this quarterly report is being prepared;

          (b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure
               controls and procedures and presented in this quarterly report
               our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure
               controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by
               this quarterly report based on such evaluation; and

          (c) disclosed in this quarterly report any change in the registrant's
               internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
               the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially
               affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
               registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

     5.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based
          on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
          reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of
          registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
          function):

          (a)  all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
               design or operation of internal control over financial reporting
               which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's
               ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
               information; and

          (b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
               other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
               internal control over financial reporting.

                         INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S REPORT



Board of Directors
Fulton Bancshares Corporation and Subsidiaries
McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania


     We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Fulton
Bancshares Corporation and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 2004 and the related
consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and
nine month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, and consolidated statements of
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the corporation's management.

     We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which
is the expression of an opinion regarding the consolidated financial statements
taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

      Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications  that
should be made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for them to
be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
