                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance
with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
presentation of financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the balance sheets of
St. Joseph Capital Corporation (the "Company")  as of June 30, 1997 and
December 31, 1996 and the statements of income for the three months ended June
30, 1997 and June 30, 1996 and for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
February 29, 1996 (date of inception)  through June 30, 1996 and for the
changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and February 29, 1996 (date of inception) through June 30, 1996.  The
income reported for the periods presented is not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, St. Joseph Capital Bank (the "Bank").
All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

NOTE 3 - INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On September 10, 1996, the Company completed an initial common stock offering
during which 1,265,000 shares of the Company's common stock were sold at $10
per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $12.65 million.  Expenses associated
with the initial public offering totaling $534,000 were netted against the
gross proceeds and not recorded as expenses in the Company's statement of
income.  Thus, the net proceeds from the initial public offering were $12.1
million.  The Company used approximately $10 million of the proceeds from the
stock offering to provide the initial capitalization of the Bank on February
13, 1997.

NOTE 4 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE

During 1996, the Company was a development stage company as its wholly owned
subsidiary, the Bank, had not yet commenced its planned principal operations of
banking.

The Bank received regulatory approval to operate as a bank from the Indiana
Department of Financial Institutions on August 8, 1996, and received its
certificate of insurance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation on
February 11, 1997.  The Bank commenced operations on February 13, 1997.  The
Bank offers a full range of commercial and consumer banking services primarily
within a 12-mile radius of Mishawaka, Indiana.

NOTE 5 - COMPARATIVE DATA

The Company was incorporated in February 1996.  Its operating subsidiary (the
Bank)  commenced operations on February 13, 1997.  As of June 30, 1996, no
significant activity had taken place, therefore comparative 

                                      7

statements for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and for the period from
February 29, 1996 (date of inception) through June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for future years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

     St. Joseph Capital Corporation (the "Company") was formed under the laws
of the state of Delaware for the purpose of becoming the bank holding company
of St. Joseph Capital Bank (the "Bank").

     The Bank was capitalized on February 7, 1997 and commenced operations on
February 13, 1997.  The Bank is organized as an Indiana chartered commercial
bank with depository accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation.  The Bank provides full-service commercial and consumer banking in
Mishawaka and the surrounding communities commonly referred to as the Michiana
area.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     The Company has experienced significant growth since the Bank opened on
February 13, 1997.  Total assets of the Company increased by $21,284,723 or
179% to $33,126,128 at June 30, 1997 from $11,841,405 at December 31, 1996.
The growth resulted from an increase in loans, securities and federal funds
sold which were primarily funded by an increase in deposits received from
clients.  As the Bank is in its initial year of operations, growth in the loan
portfolio funded by increased deposits is anticipated to continue at a rapid
pace.

     Cash and cash equivalents increased by $6,286,522 to $7,696,634 at June
30, 1997 from $1,410,112 at December 31, 1996.  The increase was primarily
attributable to excess funds invested in overnight federal funds sold in order
to maintain adequate liquidity to fund loan growth.

     Securities increased by $2,918,885 or 28% to $13,046,787 at June 30, 1997
from $10,127,902 at December 31, 1996.  The increase was a result of the
redeployment of excess funds into the investment portfolio to increase the
Company's total return.

     Loans increased to $11,428,246 at June 30, 1997 from less than $3,000,000
at the end of the first quarter.  The significant growth was attributable to
management's ability to establish credit relationships with targeted clients.
At June 30, 1997, the mix of the total loan portfolio included commercial
loans of $9,004,548 or 78% of total loans; residential real estate loans of
$2,127,563 or 19% of total loans; consumer loans of $296,135 or 3% of total
loans.  In addition to the outstanding loan balances, the Company had unfunded
loan commitments of $6,826,038 as of June 30, 1997.

     The allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 1997 was $179,200,
representing approximately 1.57% of gross loans outstanding.  The Company has
not experienced any credit losses as of June 30, 1997.

     Bank premises and equipment increased by $551,706 to $826,426 at June 30,
1997 from $274,720 at December 31, 1996.  The increase was attributable to the
cost associated with renovating, moving and furnishing the Bank's new
headquarters at 3820 Edison Lakes Parkway, Mishawaka, Indiana at which
operations were commenced on  June 13, 1997.

     Deposits represent the primary source of funds for the Company.  Total
deposits grew to  $19,550,326 at June 30, 1997 as relationships with existing
clients expanded and new deposit relationships with targeted clients were
established.

                                      8
<PAGE>   9

     Short-term borrowings in the form of repurchase agreements with local
relationship-based commercial clients continued to grow during the quarter.
Many of the funds are from businesses with large cash balances.  Though
short-term in nature, repurchase agreements have been and continue to be a
stable source of funds.  Repurchase agreements grew to $2,041,914 at June 30,
1997.

     The accumulated deficit at December 31, 1996 of $290,219 was comprised of
pre-opening expenses and start-up expenses for the Bank, consisting primarily
of salaries, supplies and professional fees.  The accumulated deficit increased
by $407,905 during the six months ended June 30, 1997, which reflects the loss
for the period.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Although the Company was incorporated in 1996, no significant activity
took place until the Bank commenced operations on February 13, 1997.
Therefore, comparisons between the second quarter and the first half of 1996
and the comparable periods of 1997 are not necessarily meaningful.  The net
loss for the six month period ended June 30, 1997 was $407,905 as compared to
$121,447 for the same period in 1996.  The net loss for the second quarter of
1997 was $242,727.

     Interest income for the three month and six month periods ended June 30,
1997 was $432,682 and $603,865, respectively.  The rise in interest income was
attributable to greater outstanding balances in earning assets.  Interest
expense for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 was
$173,983 and $207,216, respectively.   The rise in interest expense was
attributable to greater outstanding balances in deposits.

     The Company's net interest margin, or margin on earning assets, was 4.44%
for the six  months ended June 30, 1997.  The net interest margin indicates
that the significant growth in the balance sheet was not achieved through lower
loan or higher deposit pricing.

     The Company had an allowance for loan losses of approximately 1.57% of
total loans at June 30, 1997.  The provision for loan losses for the six month
period ended June 30, 1997 was $179,200.  This amount was provided as a result
of the increase in the total loan portfolio.   Management believes the current
reserve would cover possible loan losses that may occur on the current  loan
portfolio in the future.   The Bank has not experienced any credit losses as of
June 30, 1997.

     The main components of other expense were primarily salaries and occupancy
expense.  Other expenses for the three month and six month periods ended June
30, 1997 were $365,293 and $640,932, respectively.

     Since the Company is a start-up venture, it is anticipated that the
Company's net losses will continue for some period in the future.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS

     The Committee on Banking and Financial Services of the U.S. House of
Representatives has approved legislation that would allow bank holding
companies to engage in a wider range of nonbanking activities, including
greater authority to engage in securities and insurance activities.  The
expanded powers generally would be available to a bank holding company only if
the bank holding company and its bank subsidiaries remain well-capitalized and
well-managed, and if each of the depository institution subsidiaries of the
bank holding company had received at least a "satisfactory" rating under the
Community Reinvestment Act.  The proposed legislation would also impose various
restrictions on transactions between the depository institution 

                                      9

<PAGE>   10

subsidiaries of bank holding companies and their nonbank affiliates.  These
restrictions are intended to protect the depository institutions from the risks
of the new nonbanking activities permitted to such affiliates.  At this time,
the Company is unable to predict whether the proposed legislation will be
enacted and, therefore, is unable to predict the impact such legislation may
have on the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.
