                    MAIN STREET TRUST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements for Main Street
Trust,  Inc. have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q
and therefore do not include all  information  and footnotes  necessary for fair
presentation  of financial  position,  results of operations,  and cash flows in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.  These  financial  statements  should be read in  conjunction  with the
audited  consolidated  financial  statements and related notes as of and for the
year ended  December  31, 2000,  and  schedules  included in Main Street  Trust,
Inc.'s. Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2001.

In the opinion of  management,  the  consolidated  financial  statements of Main
Street Trust,  Inc. (the  "Company") and its  subsidiaries,  as of September 30,
2001 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and
2000,  include all adjustments  necessary for a fair presentation of the results
of those periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Results of operations for the three-month and nine-month  period ended September
30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 2001.

For  purposes  of the  consolidated  statements  of cash  flows,  cash  and cash
equivalents  include cash and due from banks and federal funds sold and interest
earning deposits. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Certain  amounts  in  the  2000  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been
reclassified to conform with the 2001 presentation.  Such reclassifications have
no effect on previously reported net income.

Note 2.  Company Information/Business Combination

On  March  23,  2000,  BankIllinois  Financial  Corporation  and  First  Decatur
Bancshares,  Inc.  completed  a "merger of equals"  between  the two  companies,
structured  as a merger of the two  companies  into the Company.  The merger has
been  accounted  for as a  pooling  of  interests  and,  accordingly,  all prior
financial  statements have been restated to include both companies.  As a result
of the merger,  former  shareholders of BankIllinois  Financial  Corporation and
First Decatur  Bancshares,  Inc.  received  6,119,673  and  4,990,281  shares of
Company common stock, respectively.

The  Company   operates  19  banking  centers  and  is  the  parent  company  of
BankIllinois,  First  National Bank of Decatur,  First Trust Bank of Shelbyville
and FirsTech, Inc., a retail payment processing company.

On June 14,  2001,  the Company was  certified  by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System as a financial holding company.  This designation  allows
the  Company  to engage in a wider  range of  nonbanking  activities,  including
greater authority to engage in securities and insurance activities. However, the
Company has no current plans to do so.

Note 3:  Stock Dividend

At its regular board  meeting on August 21, 2001,  the Board of Directors of the
Company declared a one-for-twenty,  or five percent,  common stock dividend. The
record date of the stock  dividend was September 4, 2001,  and the  distribution
date was September 21, 2001. The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated financial
statements have been restated to take the stock dividend into account.

Note 4.  New Accounting Rules and Regulations

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 141,
"Business  Combinations"  (SFAS  No.  141).  SFAS No.  141  addresses  financial
accounting  and reporting for business  combinations  and supersedes APB Opinion
No. 16, "Business  Combinations" and SFAS No 38,  Accounting for  Preacquisition
Contingencies  of  Purchased  Enterprises.  SFAS No. 141  requires  all business
combinations  in the scope of this SFAS to be  accounted  for using the purchase
method. SFAS No. 141 is effective for business combinations initiated after June
30, 2001 and all business  combinations  accounted for using the purchase method
for which the  acquisition  date is July 1, 2001 or later.  Management  does not
believe the adoption of Statement No. 141 will have a significant  impact on its
financial statements.

                                       9



In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 142,
"Goodwill  and Other  Intangible  Assets"  (SFAS  142).  SFAS No. 142  addresses
financial  accounting and reporting for acquired  goodwill and other  intangible
assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible  Assets". It addresses how
intangible  assets  should be accounted  for at  acquisition  and in  subsequent
periods. Most significantly, goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite
useful lives will not be amortized  but rather will be tested at least  annually
for impairment. Intangible assets that have finite useful lives will continue to
be  amortized  over their useful  lives.  The standard  also  provides  specific
guidance for testing goodwill for impairment and requires additional disclosures
about goodwill and intangible assets. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS No. 142 is required to be applied to the
beginning of an entity's fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other
intangible  assets  recognized  in  its  financial   statements  at  that  date.
Impairment losses for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets that arise
due to the initial  application of this Standard are to be reported as resulting
from a change in accounting principle.  Management does not believe the adoption
of SFAS No. 142 will have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In June 2001,  Statement on Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 143 "Accounting
for Asset Retirement  Obligations" was issued to address financial reporting and
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. This Statement applies to all entities and to
legal  obligations  associated  with the  retirement of  long-lived  assets that
result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operations of a
long-lived asset, except for certain  obligations of lessees.  Statement No. 143
is effective for financial  statements  issued for fiscal years  beginning after
June 15, 2002.  Management  does not believe the  adoption of Statement  No. 143
will have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In August 2001,  Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting
for the  Impairment  or Disposal of  Long-Lived  Assets" was issued to supersede
Statement No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of", and the accounting and reporting  provisions of APB Opinion No. 30
"Reporting  the Results of  Operations - Reporting  the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business,  and  Extraordinary,  Unusual and Infrequently  Occurring
Events  and  Transactions".   Statement  No.  144  is  effective  for  financial
statements  issued for fiscal years  beginning  after  December  15,  2001,  and
interim periods within those fiscal years,  with early  application  encouraged.
Management  does not  believe  the  adoption  of  Statement  No. 144 will have a
significant impact on its financial statements.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

                              Financial Condition

Assets and Liabilities

Total assets increased $13.594 million,  or 1.2%, to $1.105 billion at September
30,  2001  compared  to $1.091  billion  at  December  31,  2000.  Increases  in
investments  available-for-sale,  loans,  mortgage  loans  held for sale,  other
assets and  non-marketable  equity securities were partially offset by decreases
in   federal   funds   sold   and   interest   earning   deposits,   investments
held-to-maturity,  cash and due from banks,  accrued  interest  receivable,  and
premises and equipment.

Cash and due from banks decreased  $8.744 million,  or 14.8%, to $50.223 million
at September 30, 2001 compared to $58.967 million at December 31, 2000 primarily
due to a smaller  dollar  amount of deposit  items in process of  collection  at
September 30, 2001 compared to December 31, 2000.

Federal funds sold and interest earning deposits  decreased $17.163 million,  or
68.2%,  to $8.009  million at September 30, 2001 compared to $25.172  million at
December 31, 2000.  This  decrease was the result of excess  federal  funds sold
being used to fund the increase in loans and investments.

Total  investments in debt and equity securities  increased $18.069 million,  or
6.0%, to $321.256  million at September 30, 2001 compared to $303.187 million at
December  31,  2000.  Investments  in  securities  available-for-sale  increased
$31.594 million, or 14.8%, and non-marketable equity securities increased $0.553
million, or 12.2%, at September 30, 2001 compared to December 31, 2000. Somewhat
offsetting  these  increases  was a decrease in  investments  in debt and equity
securities  held-to-maturity  of $14.078 million,  or 16.6%. The net increase in
investments in debt and equity  securities was the result of shifting funds from
federal funds sold and interest earning deposits into higher yielding investment
securities.  As  held-to-maturity   securities  have  matured  or  been  called,
management has shifted  additional funds into  available-for-sale  securities to
allow the Company more  flexibility  to reposition  its portfolio in response to
future changes in the interest rate environment, economy and balance sheet mix.

Mortgage  loans held for sale increased  $6.341  million,  or 303.4%,  to $8.431
million at September 30, 2001  compared to $2.090  million at December 31, 2000.
This  increase was mainly due to lower  interest  rates driving up demand in the
mortgage loan area during the first three quarters of 2001.

Loans, net of allowance for loan losses,  increased $16.049 million, or 2.4%, to
$675.898  million at September  30, 2001 from  $659.849  million at December 31,
2000.  Increases in  commercial,  financial  and  agricultural  loans of $19.802
million,  or 9.0%,  and  real  estate  loans of  $6.033  million,  or 1.9%  were
partially  offset by a decrease of $1.370 million,  or 1.1% in consumer loans at
September 30, 2001 compared to December 31, 2000.

Premises and equipment  decreased $0.839 million,  or 4.0%, from $20.874 million
at December 31, 2000 to $20.035  million at September 30, 2001. The decrease was
caused by  depreciation  expense of $1.989 million offset by purchases of $1.150
million.

Other  assets  increased  $1.244  million,  or 12.1%,  from  $10.313  million at
December 31, 2000 to $11.557  million at September 30, 2001  primarily due to an
increase of $0.945 million in accrued trust income.

Total  liabilities  increased  $4.269 million,  or 0.4%, to $969.948  million at
September  30, 2001 from  $965.679  million at December 31,  2000.  Increases in
federal  funds  purchased,  repurchase  agreements  and notes  payable and other
liabilities were partially  offset by decreases in total deposits,  Federal Home
Loan Bank advances and other borrowings and accrued interest payable.

Total  deposits  decreased  $3.383  million,  or 0.4%,  to  $836.549  million at
September 30, 2001 from $839.932 at December 31, 2000.  The decrease in deposits
included a decrease in savings deposits of $25.838 million, or 18.5%, a decrease
in  non-interest  bearing  demand  deposits of $2.511  million,  or 2.3%,  and a
decrease in time deposits $100,000 and over of $1.020 million, or 1.0%. Somewhat
offsetting  these  decreases were  increases of $25.183  million,  or 10.8%,  in
interest bearing demand deposits and $0.803, or 0.3%, in other time. Despite the
decrease from year-end,  total deposits were $33.182  million,  or 4.1%,  higher
than the September 30, 2000 balance of $803.367 million.

Federal funds  purchased,  repurchase  agreements  and notes  payable  increased
$9.162  million,  or 13.2%, to $78.820 million at September 30, 2001 compared to
$69.658 million at December 31, 2000.  Included in this change were increases of
$9.155  million in  repurchase  agreements  and $0.325  million in federal funds
purchased.  Somewhat  offsetting these increases was a decrease in notes payable
of $0.318 million.

                                       11



Accrued interest payable  decreased $0.822 million,  or 17.9%, to $3.762 million
at  September  30,  2001 from  $4.584  million at December  31,  2000.  This was
reflective of the lower interest rate environment.

1    Expected   maturities  may  differ  from  contractual   maturities  because
     borrowers may have the right to call or prepay  obligations with or without
     call or  prepayment  penalties  and certain  securities  require  principal
     repayments prior to maturity.
2    Due to the nature of these  securities,  they do not have a stated maturity
     date or rate.

On  September  18,  2001,  the board of  directors  of the  Company  declared  a
quarterly  cash dividend of $0.11 per share of the Company's  common stock.  The
dividend of  $1,197,000  was paid on October 19,  2001,  to holders of record on
October 5, 2001.

The Company and its subsidiary banks are subject to various  regulatory  capital
requirements  administered  by the  federal  banking  agencies.  Failure to meet
minimum  capital  requirements  can  initiate  certain  mandatory  and  possibly
additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a
direct  material  effect on the Company's and its  subsidiary  banks'  financial
statements.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory  framework for
prompt  corrective  action,  banks must meet  specific  guidelines  that involve
quantitative  measures of assets,  liabilities,  and  certain  off-balance-sheet
items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and its
subsidiary  banks'  capital  amounts  and  classification  are also  subject  to
qualitative judgments by the regulators about components,  risk weightings,  and
other factors.

Quantitative  measures  established  by  regulation to ensure  capital  adequacy
require the Company and its  subsidiary  banks to maintain  minimum  amounts and
ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in
the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as
defined) to average assets (as defined).  Management  believes,  as of September
30,  2001,  that the  Company  and its  subsidiary  banks  exceeded  all capital
adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of September 30, 2001, the most recent  notifications from primary regulatory
agencies  categorized  all the Company's  subsidiary  banks as well  capitalized
under the regulatory  framework for prompt corrective  action. To be categorized
as well capitalized,  banks must maintain minimum total capital to risk-weighted
assets,  Tier I capital to risk-weighted  assets,  and Tier I capital to average
assets ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since
that  notification  that  management  believes have changed any of the Company's
subsidiary banks' categories.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The  concept of interest  rate  sensitivity  attempts  to gauge  exposure of the
Company's net interest income to adverse changes in market driven interest rates
by  measuring  the amount of  interest-sensitive  assets and  interest-sensitive
liabilities  maturing or subject to  repricing  within a specified  time period.
Liquidity  represents the ability of the Company to meet the day-to-day  demands
of deposit customers balanced by its investments of these deposits.  The Company
must also be prepared to fulfill  the needs of credit  customers  for loans with
various  types of  maturities  and other  financing  arrangements.  The  Company
monitors its interest rate  sensitivity and liquidity  through the use of static
gap reports which measure the difference between assets and liabilities maturing
or   repricing   within   specified   time   periods   as  well   as   financial
forecasting/budgeting/reporting software packages.

3    The total of savings and interest-bearing  demand deposits does not include
     $27,115,000 of  non-transactional  accounts which are savings accounts that
     are non-interest bearing.



Included  in the  1-30 day  category  of  savings  and  interest-bearing  demand
deposits are non-core deposits plus a percentage,  based upon  industry-accepted
assumptions and Company analysis, of the core deposits.  "Core deposits" are the
lowest average balance of the prior twelve months for each product type included
in this category.  "Non-core  deposits" are the  difference  between the current
balance and core  deposits.  The time frames  include a  percentage,  based upon
industry-accepted  assumptions and Company  analysis,  of the core deposits,  as
follows:

                                1-30 Days  31-90 Days  91-180 Days  181-365 Days   Over 1 Year

Savings and interest-bearing
  demand deposits ...........     0.45%       0.85%       1.25%        2.45%         95.00%


                                       16




At September 30, 2001, the Company was  liability-sensitive due to the levels of
savings and interest  bearing demand  deposits,  short-term  time deposits,  and
short-term  borrowings.  As such,  the effect of a decrease in the interest rate
for all interest  earning assets and interest  bearing  liabilities of 100 basis
points would increase annualized net interest income by approximately $1,033,000
in the 1-30 days category and  $1,243,000 in the 1-90 days category  assuming no
management  intervention.  An increase in interest rates would have the opposite
effect for the same time periods.

In addition to managing  interest rate sensitivity and liquidity through the use
of gap reports, the Company has provided for emergency liquidity situations with
informal  agreements with correspondent banks which permit the Company to borrow
federal  funds on an  unsecured  basis.  Additionally,  the  Company  can borrow
approximately $29 million from the Federal Home Bank on a secured basis.

The Company uses financial  forecasting/budgeting/reporting software packages to
perform  interest  rate  sensitivity  analysis for all product  categories.  The
Company's  primary  focus of its  analysis  is on the  effect of  interest  rate
increases and decreases on net interest  income.  Management  believes that this
analysis  reflects the  potential  effects on current  earnings of interest rate
changes.  Call criteria and prepayment  assumptions are taken into consideration
for investments in debt and equity  securities.  All of the Company's  financial
instruments  are  analyzed by a software  database  which  includes  each of the
different product categories which are tied to key rates such as prime, Treasury
Bills,  or the federal funds rate.  The  relationships  of each of the different
products  to the key  rate  that the  product  is tied to is  proportional.  The
software  reprices the products based on current  offering  rates.  The software
performs interest rate sensitivity analysis by performing rate shocks of plus or
minus 200 basis points in 100 basis point increments.

The following table shows  projected  results at September 30, 2001 and December
31,  2000 of the  impact on net  interest  income  from an  immediate  change in
interest  rates.  The results are shown as a  percentage  change in net interest
income over the next twelve months.

                                                        Basis Point Change
                                                   -----------------------------

                                                   -----------------------------
September 30, 2001 ...........................     3.6%    1.8%   (1.8%)  (3.6%)
December 31, 2000 ............................     0.2%    0.1%   (0.1%)  (0.2%)

The foregoing computations are based on numerous assumptions, including relative
levels of market  interest  rates,  prepayments  and deposit  mix.  The computed
estimates  should not be relied upon as a projection of actual results.  Despite
the  limitations  on  preciseness  inherent  in these  computations,  management
believes that the information provided is reasonably indicative of the effect of
changes in interest  rate levels on the net  earning  capacity of the  Company's
current  mix of  interest  earning  assets  and  interest  bearing  liabilities.
Management  continues to use the results of these  computations,  along with the
results of its computer model projections, in order to maximize current earnings
while  positioning  the Company to minimize  the effect of a prolonged  shift in
interest rates that would adversely affect future results of operations.

At the present time, the most  significant  market risk affecting the Company is
interest rate risk.  Other market risks such as foreign  currency  exchange risk
and commodity price risk do not occur in the normal business of the Company. The
Company also is not currently using trading activities or derivative instruments
to control interest rate risk.

Liquidity and Cash Flows

The Company  was able to meet  liquidity  needs  during the first nine months of
2001.  A review of the  consolidated  statements  of cash flows  included in the
accompanying  financial  statements  shows  that  the  Company's  cash  and cash
equivalents  decreased $25,907,000 from December 31, 2000 to September 30, 2001.
This decrease came from cash used in investing and financing  activities  offset
by cash provided by operating activities.

                                       17



There were  differences  in the  sources  and uses of cash during the first nine
months of 2001 compared to the first nine months of 2000. Less cash was provided
by  operating  activities  during the first nine months of 2001  compared to the
same period of 2000. This was primarily due to a larger  difference  between the
volume of loans  originated for sale versus proceeds from sales during the first
nine months of 2001  compared to the same period in 2000.  Less cash was used in
investing  activities during the first nine months of 2001 compared to cash used
during the same  period of 2000 due to a smaller  amount of loan  growth in 2001
compared  to 2000 and due to  changes  in the  Company's  investment  portfolio.
During  the first nine  months of 2001,  net cash used by  investing  activities
involving  the  Company's  investment  portfolio  was  $12,803,000  compared  to
$2,058,000  cash provided  during the same period in 2000. Less cash was used in
financing  activities during the first nine months of 2001 compared to the first
nine months of 2000.  This was due to cash used because of decreases in deposits
and  Federal  Home Loan Bank  advances  during  the  first  nine  months of 2001
compared to cash provided  from  increases in these areas during the same period
of 2000 offset by cash  provided by the  increase  in federal  funds  purchased,
repurchase  agreements,  and notes payable  during the first nine months of 2001
compared to cash used during the same period of 2000.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

The  provision for loan losses is based on  management's  evaluation of the loan
portfolio in light of national  and local  economic  conditions,  changes in the
composition and volume of the loan portfolio,  changes in the volume of past due
and nonaccrual loans, and other relevant factors. The allowance for loan losses,
which is reported as a deduction from loans, is available for loan  charge-offs.
The allowance is increased by the provision charged to expense and is reduced by
loan charge-offs net of loan  recoveries.  The balance of the allowance for loan
losses was  $8,864,000  at September 30, 2001 compared to $8,879,000 at December
31, 2000, as net  charge-offs  were  $860,000 and  provisions  totaled  $845,000
during  the  first  nine  months of 2001.  The  allowance  for loan  losses as a
percentage of gross loans, including loans held-for-sale, was 1.28% at September
30, 2001, or slightly less than the December 31, 2000 percentage of 1.32%. Gross
loans,  including  loans  held-for-sale,   increased  3.3%  to  $693,193,000  at
September 30, 2001 from $670,818,000 at December 31, 2000.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 228.3%
at September  30, 2001  compared to 613.2% at December 31, 2000.  Non-performing
loans increased from $1,448,000 at December 31, 2000, to $3,883,000 at September
30, 2001. The $2,435,000 increase in non-performing  loans during the first nine
months  resulted  from a $66,000  increase  in loans over 90 days past due and a
$2,369,000  increase in  non-accruals.  The increase in  non-accruals  consisted
primarily of a $2,166,000 farm credit,  which is secured by farm real estate and
business  personal  property,  and other smaller  commercial and consumer loans.
Although unforeseen market conditions could result in significant adjustments in
the future,  management  believes  that  problem  assets  have been  effectively
identified and that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable
losses in the portfolio which are reasonably anticipated.  However, there can be
no assurance  that the  allowance  for loan losses will be adequate to cover all
losses.

Along with other  financial  institutions,  management  shares a concern for the
continued  softening of the economy in 2001.  The tragic events of September 11,
2001 have further clouded the economic outlook, severely impacting several major
industries,  as  well  as  the  economy  as  a  whole.  Additionally,   consumer
confidence, a key factor in the economy, has been negatively impacted. A slowing
economy could  adversely  affect cash flows from both  commercial and individual
borrowers,  as a result of which,  the Company  could  experience  increases  in
problem assets, delinquencies and losses on loans.

                              Results of Operations

Results of Operations For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001

The merger of equals to create the Company,  which  occurred near the end of the
first quarter of 2000,  resulted in significant  merger related costs which were
expensed during the first nine months of 2000.  These expenses had a significant
effect on the reported net income of the combined  entity  during the first nine
months of 2000. Net income for the first nine months of 2001 was $11,776,000,  a
$3,321,000,  or 39.3%,  increase  from  $8,455,000  for the same period in 2000.
Basic earnings per share  increased  $0.32, or 42.1%, to $1.08 in the first nine
months of 2001 from $0.76 in the same period of 2000. Diluted earnings per share
increased  $0.31, or 41.3%, to $1.06 in the first nine months of 2001 from $0.75
during the same period in 2000.

Operating   earnings  for  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  2001,  were
$11,991,000  compared to $11,861,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of
$130,000,  or 1.1%.  Basic  operating  earnings per share increased to $1.09, or
1.9%,  in the first nine  months of 2001 from $1.07 in the same  period of 2000.
Diluted  earnings per share on  operating  earnings for the first nine months of
2001 increased 1.9%, or $0.02, to $1.07,  from $1.05 in the same period in 2000.
The  difference  between  operating  and  net  earnings  was due to  merger  and
restructuring  related expenses,  net of tax, of $215,000 during the nine months
of 2001 compared to $3,406,000  during the same period in 2000.  The 2001 merger
and  restructuring  related  expenses  consisted  of $70,000 of data  processing
expense and $256,000 of termination of employment contracts,  offset by $111,000
of tax benefit. The 2000 merger and restructuring  related expenses consisted of
$2,454,000 of professional fees, $941,000 of early retirement and termination of
employment  contracts,  and  $587,000  of  expenses  related to  write-downs  of
computer equipment, offset by $576,000 of tax benefit.

Notes to Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Tables:

1    Investments in debt securities are included at carrying value.
2    Federal  funds sold and interest  earning  deposits  include  approximately
     $93,000 and  $119,000 in 2001 and 2000,  respectively,  of interest  income
     from third party processing of cashier checks.
3    Loans are net of allowance for loan losses and include  mortgage loans held
     for sale. Nonaccrual loans are included in the total.
4    Loan  fees  of  approximately  $722,000  and  $699,000  in 2001  and  2000,
     respectively, are included in total loan income.
5    Due to current  regulatory  issues,  the  Company is allowed to  reclassify
     certain  demand  deposits  to  savings  deposits.  Accounts  identified  as
     transactional remained in the demand categories,  while accounts identified
     as  non-transactional  were reclassified into the savings  categories.  The
     classification  was based upon whether the account  balance was fluctuating
     or  whether  it  exhibited  stable  balance  portions,  which  were  called
     non-transactional.  Banks are  required  to hold  balances  at the  Federal
     Reserve Bank based upon  transactional  account  balances.  By  identifying
     these  accounts  as  non-transactional,  the Company was able to reduce the
     balances  required to be held at the Federal Reserve Bank in a non-interest
     bearing reserve account.

Net interest income, the most significant  component of the Company's  earnings,
is the difference  between interest received or accrued on the Company's earning
assets -  primarily  loans and  investments  - and  interest  paid or accrued on
deposits  and  borrowings.  In order to  compare  the  interest  generated  from
different  types of earning assets,  the interest  income on certain  tax-exempt
investment  securities  and loans is increased for analysis  purposes to reflect
the income tax savings  provided by these tax-exempt  assets.  The adjustment to
interest  income for tax-exempt  investment  securities and loans was calculated
based on the federal  income tax  statutory  rate of 34%.  The  following  table
presents, on a tax equivalent (TE) basis, an analysis of changes in net interest
income  resulting from changes in average volumes of earning assets and interest

1 Due to deposit reclassifications  described above, interest bearing demand and
  savings deposits are included in the same line for comparability.

                                       22



Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $1,201,000, or 4.2% higher for
the first nine months of 2001 compared to 2000.  Total  tax-equivalent  interest
income was  $1,277,000  or 2.3% higher in 2001  compared to 2000,  and  interest
expense increased  $76,000,  or 0.3%. The increase in interest income was due to
an increase in average earning assets offset somewhat by a decrease in rate. The
slight increase in interest  expense was due to an increase in average  interest
bearing liabilities offset by a decrease in rate.

The increase in total interest  income was mainly due to an increase in interest
income from loans as well as federal funds sold and interest  earning  deposits,
and tax-exempt  investment  securities,  offset somewhat by a decrease in income
from taxable investment securities. The increases in interest income from loans,
federal funds sold and interest  earning  deposits,  and tax-exempt  investments
were primarily due to increases in average balances outstanding during the first
nine months of 2001 compared to the first nine months of 2000,  offset  somewhat
by decreases in rate. The decrease in taxable investment interest income was due
to a decrease in average balance as well as rate.

The increase in total interest  expense was due to increases in interest on time
deposits and FHLB advances and other borrowings, offset somewhat by decreases in
interest  expense on interest  bearing  demand and savings  deposits and federal
funds purchased,  repurchase  agreements and notes payable.  Interest expense on
time  deposits  increased  during the first nine months of 2001  compared to the
first nine months of 2000 due to both higher average  balances and higher rates.
Interest  expense on FHLB  advances and other  borrowings  increased  during the
first nine months of 2001  compared  to the first nine months of 2000  primarily
due to an increase in average balances. Somewhat offsetting these increases were
decreases in interest on interest bearing demand and savings deposits, which was
due to a decrease in rates  somewhat  offset by an increase in average  balance,
and a  decrease  in  interest  expense on federal  funds  purchased,  repurchase
agreements and notes payable, which was primarily due to lower rates.

The provision for loan losses recorded was $845,000 during the first nine months
of 2001. This was $387,000,  or 84.5%,  higher than the $458,000 recorded during
the first nine months of 2000.  The  provision  during both periods was based on
management's  analysis of the loan portfolio,  as discussed in the provision and
allowance for loan losses section above.

Total  non-interest  income increased  $327,000,  or 2.6%, during the first nine
months of 2001  compared  to the first  nine  months of 2000.  Included  in this
increase was an increase of $368,000, or 301.6%, from gains on sales of mortgage
loans held-for-sale.  This increase reflected a $44,971,000, or 298.0%, increase
in funded  mortgage  loans  held-for-sale  during the first nine  months of 2001
compared to the same period in 2000,  and was reflective of lower interest rates
during  the first  nine  months of 2001.  Income  from  securities  transactions
increased $285,000 to $302,000 during the first nine months of 2001, compared to
$17,000 during the same period in 2000.  This was the result of the sale of some
securities to reposition the portfolio in the current changing rate environment.
Service charges on deposit accounts  increased $3,000, or 0.2%, during the first
nine months of 2001. Somewhat offsetting these increases was a decrease in other
income of $161,000,  or 12.1%,  during the first nine months of 2001 compared to
the same period in 2000.  Proceeds from a life insurance policy of approximately
$81,000 during the first three quarters of 2000,  along with $22,000 in one-time
fee income  from a third  party  during  the same  period,  contributed  to this
decrease.  Income from trust and brokerage  fees  decreased  $105,000,  or 2.6%,
during the first nine months of 2001  compared to the same period in 2000.  This
was due,  in part,  to the  downturn in the stock  market  during the first nine
months of 2001. Market values have been depressed causing fee revenue to decline
in this area.  Remittance  processing income decreased $63,000,  or 1.2%, during
the first nine months of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. This decrease
reflects a shift in late 2000, and continuing into 2001,  from lockbox  payments
to mechanized payments, which have lower revenue streams as well as lower costs.

                                       23



Total non-interest expense decreased $2,931,000, or 11.0%, during the first nine
months of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. Of this decrease, $2,454,000
was due to merger  related  professional  fees in 2000.  Salaries  and  employee
benefits  decreased  $754,000,  or 5.4%,  during the first  nine  months of 2001
compared to the same period in 2000. Salaries and employee benefits in the first
nine months of 2001 included  $256,000 of expenses related to the termination of
employment  contracts compared to $941,000 in expenses during the same period in
2000 related to early  retirement and  termination of employment  contracts as a
result of the merger. Equipment expense decreased $551,000, or 19.3%, during the
first  nine  months  of 2001  compared  to the same  period  in  2000.  This was
primarily due to $587,000 in merger related  write-downs  of computer  equipment
and  software  during  the first  nine  months  of 2000.  Service  charges  from
correspondent  banks decreased  $133,000,  or 16.8%, in the first nine months of
2001  compared to the same period in 2000.  This was mainly due to a  continuing
trend toward fewer lockbox transactions,  resulting in decreased service charges
from  correspondent  banks.  Occupancy expense decreased $7,000, or 0.4%, during
the first nine  months of 2001  compared  to the same  period in 2000.  Somewhat
offsetting  these  decreases  was an increase in other  non-interest  expense of
$410,000,  or 13.2%,  during the first nine months of 2001  compared to the same
period in 2000.  This was the result of  proceeds  of  $461,000 in April of 2000
from the sale of a property  previously  written off. Office supplies  increased
$282,000, or 31.4%, in the first nine months of 2001 compared to the same period
in 2000.  Included in office  supplies  expense  were  additional  printing  and
mailing  expense and  additional  supplies  purchased  to support and announce a
computer system conversion  necessary to move the Company's  subsidiaries toward
the same data processing system. Data processing expense increased $276,000,  or
25.7%,  in the first nine  months of 2001  compared  to the first nine months of
2000.  Included in data processing expense in the first nine months of 2001 were
expenses   associated  with  conversion  to  third  party  service  bureau  data
processing from in-house processing, and $70,000 in expenses related to computer
system  conversion  and early  contract  termination as a result of the computer
system conversion.

Income tax expense increased $609,000, or 12.6%, during the first nine months of
2001 compared to the first nine months of 2000. The effective tax rate decreased
to 31.7%  during the first nine months of 2001 from 36.4% during the same period
in 2000.  This  difference was due to $2,454,000 of merger related  professional
fees for which no tax  benefit had been  recognized  in the first nine months of
2000.

Results of Operations For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2001

The merger of equals to create the Company,  which  occurred near the end of the
first quarter of 2000,  resulted in additional merger related costs of $390,000,
net of tax, which were expensed during the third quarter of 2000. These expenses
had an effect on the reported net income of the combined Company. Net income for
the third quarter of 2001 was $4,044,000,  a $500,000,  or 14.1%,  increase from
$3,544,000  during the third quarter of 2000. Basic earnings per share increased
$0.05,  or 15.6%,  to $0.37 in the third  quarter of 2001 from $0.32 in the same
period of 2000.  Diluted  earnings per share increased $0.05, or 16.1%, to $0.36
in the third quarter of 2001 from $0.31 in the same period of 2000.

Operating  earnings for the third  quarter of 2001 were  $4,044,000  compared to
$3,934,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $110,000,  or 2.8%. Basic
operating  earnings per share  increased  $0.01,  or 2.8%, to $0.37 in the third
quarter  of 2001  compared  to  $0.36 in the  third  quarter  of  2000.  Diluted
operating  earnings per share  increased  $0.01,  or 2.9%, to $0.36 in the third
quarter of 2001 compared to $0.35 in the third quarter of 2000.

Notes to Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Tables:

1    Investments in debt securities are included at carrying value.
2    Federal  funds sold and interest  earning  deposits  include  approximately
     $23,000 and $41,000 in 2001 and 2000, respectively, of interest income from
     third party processing of cashier checks.
3    Loans are net of allowance for loan losses and include  mortgage loans held
     for sale. Nonaccrual loans are included in the total.

                                       25



4    Loan  fees  of  approximately  $282,000  and  $269,000  in 2001  and  2000,
     respectively, are included in total loan income.
5    Due to current  regulatory  issues,  the  Company is allowed to  reclassify
     certain  demand  deposits  to  savings  deposits.  Accounts  identified  as
     transactional remained in the demand categories,  while accounts identified
     as  non-transactional  were reclassified into the savings  categories.  The
     classification  was based upon whether the account  balance was fluctuating
     or  whether  it  exhibited  stable  balance  portions,  which  were  called
     non-transactional.  Banks are  required  to hold  balances  at the  Federal
     Reserve Bank based upon  transactional  account  balances.  By  identifying
     these  accounts  as  non-transactional,  the Company was able to reduce the
     balances  required to be held at the Federal Reserve Bank in a non-interest
     bearing reserve account.

The following table presents,  on a tax equivalent basis, an analysis of changes
in net interest  income  resulting  from  changes in average  volumes of earning
assets and interest  bearing  liabilities and average rates earned and paid. The
change in interest due to the combined  rate/volume  variance has been allocated
to rate and volume  changes in  proportion  to the  absolute  dollar  amounts of
change in each.

1    Due to deposit  reclassifications  described above, interest bearing demand
     and savings deposits are included in the same line for comparability.



Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $436,000,  or 4.5%, higher for
the  third  quarter  of 2001  compared  to the  third  quarter  of  2000.  Total
tax-equivalent  interest income was $784,000, or 4.1%, lower in 2001 compared to
2000,  and interest  expense  decreased  $1,220,000,  or 12.8%.  The decrease in
interest income was due to a decrease in rate, somewhat offset by an increase in
average  balances.  The  decrease in interest  expense  was  primarily  due to a
decrease in interest rates offset somewhat by increased average balances.


                                       26



The decrease in total interest  income was due to a decrease in interest  income
from taxable investment  securities,  loans, and federal funds sold and interest
earning  deposits.  These  decreases  were  somewhat  offset by an  increase  in
interest income from tax-exempt investment securities.  The decrease in interest
income from taxable  investment  securities  was  primarily due to a decrease in
rates in the third quarter of 2001  compared to the third  quarter of 2000.  The
decrease in interest from loans was due to a decrease in rates,  offset somewhat
by an increase in average balances.  The decrease in interest from federal funds
sold and  other  interest  earning  deposits  was due to a  decrease  in  rates,
somewhat offset by an increase in average  balances.  The increase in tax-exempt
investment  interest  income  was  due  to an  increase  in  average  tax-exempt
investments, offset somewhat by lower yields.

The decrease in total interest  expense was due to decreases in interest expense
on all categories of interest bearing liabilities. Interest expense decreased on
interest bearing demand and savings deposits,  time deposits,  and federal funds
purchased,  repurchase  agreements and notes payable during the third quarter of
2001  compared  to the same  period in 2000 due to  decreases  in rates,  offset
somewhat by increases in average balances. Interest expense on FHLB advances and
other  borrowings  decreased  during the third  quarter of 2001  compared to the
third quarter of 2000 due to decreases in both rate and average balance.

The  provision  for loan losses  recorded was $235,000 for the third  quarter of
2001. This represented a 23.0% increase over the $191,000  recorded in the third
quarter of 2000.  The  provision  during both periods was based on  management's
analysis of the loan portfolio,  as discussed in the provision and allowance for
loan losses section above.

Total non-interest income increased $355,000,  or 8.9%, during the third quarter
of 2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000.  Included in this increase was an
increase of $152,000,  or 9.3%, in remittance  processing income.  This increase
was due to increased volume coupled with restructured pricing to some customers.
Also contributing to the increase in total  non-interest  income was an increase
of $112,000,  or 177.8% in gains on sales of mortgage loans held-for-sale.  This
increase reflected a $13,605,000,  or 192.9%,  increase in funded mortgage loans
held-for-sale  during the third quarter of 2001 compared to the third quarter of
2000 due to lower interest rates. Income from securities  transactions increased
$52,000,  or 167.7%,  during the third  quarter  of 2001  compared  to the third
quarter of 2000. Trust and brokerage fees increased $30,000, or 2.2%, during the
third  quarter of 2001  compared to the same period in 2000.  This was due to an
increase in assets  under  management  from new account  relationships.  Service
charges on deposit accounts, and other non-interest income, increased $6,000 and
$3,000,  respectively,  during the third  quarter of 2001  compared  to the same
period in 2000.

Total non-interest expense decreased $185,000, or 2.3%, during the third quarter
of 2001  compared  to the third  quarter of 2000.  Equipment  expense  decreased
$645,000,  or 46.6%,  during  the third  quarter of 2001  compared  to the third
quarter  of  2000.  This  was  primarily  due  to  $587,000  in  merger  related
write-downs of computer equipment and software during the third quarter of 2000.
Occupancy expense and other  non-interest  expense decreased $15,000 and $3,000,
respectively,  during  the third  quarter  of 2001.  Somewhat  offsetting  these
decreases  was an increase in salaries  and employee  benefits of  $202,000,  or
5.0%,  during the third  quarter of 2001  compared to the third quarter of 2000.
Data processing  expense increased  $190,000,  or 63.8%, in the third quarter of
2001  compared to the same period in 2000.  Contributing  to this  increase were
expenses  associated  with the  conversion  to third party  service  bureau data
processing from in house processing. Office supplies had an increase of $85,000,
or 27.7% during the third  quarter of 2001  compared to the same period in 2000.
Included in office  supplies were  additional  printing and mailing  expense and
additional  supplies  purchased to support the  aforementioned  computer  system
conversion.  Service  charges from  correspondent  banks rose $3,000  during the
third quarter of 2001 compared to the same period in 2000.

Income tax expense  increased  $378,000,  or 23.5%,  during the third quarter of
2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000.  The effective tax rate increased to
32.9% in the third  quarter of 2001  compared  to 31.2% in the third  quarter of
2000.
