NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial information of Midwest Banc Holdings, Inc.
(the "Company") included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation for the interim
periods. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X.

The annualized results of operations for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results
expected for the full year ending December 31, 2003.

NOTE 2 - BUSINESS COMBINATION AND MERGER TERMINATION

On January 3, 2003, the Company acquired Big Foot Financial Corp.
("BFFC") through the issuance of approximately 1,599,088 shares at $18.81 per
share, cash paid of $1.4 million, and incurred acquisition costs of $557,000,
resulting in total consideration of $32.0 million. This purchase price generated
approximately $1.9 million in goodwill. BFFC and its subsidiary were merged into
Midwest Bank and Trust Company and are operated as branches. At closing the
Company transferred $3.4 million of securities categorized as held-to-maturity
to available-for-sale under permissible provisions of FASB Statement No. 115.
During the first quarter of 2003, the Company sold the mortgage loans and
mortgage servicing rights of $141.9 million of the acquired loans on a
non-recourse basis.

The business combination is accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired company have
been included in the Company's results of operations since the date of
acquisition. Under this method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to
the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated
fair values. The excess of purchase price over the net assets acquired is
recorded as goodwill. The purchase price allocation has not been finalized.

The following is the unaudited proforma consolidated results of
operation of the Company for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002
as though BFFC had been acquired as of January 1, 2002.

Basic Earnings per share 0.38 0.76
Diluted Earnings per share 0.37 0.74

On November 1, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with CoVest
Bancshares, Inc. ("CoVest") and its subsidiary, CoVest Bank N.A. which provided
for the acquisition of CoVest by the Company in a cash and stock merger
transaction. The Company announced on July 1, 2003 that the parties had mutually
agreed to terminate the merger agreement effective June 30, 2003 due to the
inability of the parties to agree upon the terms of an extension. Included in
other expenses are $425,000 of capitalized costs relating to the merger.

NOTE 3 - GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLES

On January 1, 2002, the Company implemented Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Under the
provisions of SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no


PAGE 9




longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life, but instead is
subject to at least annual assessments for impairment by applying a fair-value
based test. SFAS No. 142 also requires that an acquired intangible asset be
separately recognized if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through
contractual or other legal rights, or if the asset can be sold, transferred,
licensed, rented or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer's intent to do so. The
Company determined that no transitional impairment loss was required at
January 1, 2002.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

For purposes of per share calculations, the Company had 17,799,968 and
16,156,434 shares of common stock outstanding at June 30, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. Basic earnings per share for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2003 and 2002 were computed by dividing net income by the


PAGE 10





weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were computed by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for
the dilutive effect of the stock options. Computations for basic and diluted
earnings per share are provided below.

NOTE 6 - ISSUANCE OF TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES

In May 2000, the Company formed MBHI Capital Trust I (the "Trust"). The

offering. The Company also issued 10% junior subordinated debentures aggregating
$20.0 million to the Trust. The junior subordinated debentures are the sole
assets of the Trust. The junior subordinated debentures and the preferred
securities pay interest and dividends, respectively, on a quarterly basis. The
junior subordinated debentures will mature on June 7, 2030, at which time the
preferred securities must be redeemed. The junior subordinated debentures and
preferred securities can be redeemed contemporaneously, in whole or in part,
beginning June 7, 2005 at a redemption price of $25 per preferred security. The
Company has provided a full, irrevocable, and unconditional guarantee on a
subordinated basis of the obligations of the Trust under the preferred
securities in the event of the occurrence of an event of default, as defined in
such guarantee.

In October 2002, the Company formed MBHI Capital Trust II (the "Trust
II"), a statutory trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware and a
wholly owned financing subsidiary of the Company. In October 2002, Trust II
issued $15.0 million in aggregate liquidation amount of trust preferred
securities in a private placement offering. Simultaneously with the issuance of
the trust preferred securities by Trust II, the Company issued an equivalent
amount of junior subordinated debentures to Trust II. The junior subordinated
debentures are the sole assets of Trust II. The junior subordinated debentures
and the trust preferred securities pay distributions and dividends,
respectively, on


PAGE 11




a quarterly basis, which are included in interest expense. The interest rate
payable on the debentures and the trust preferred securities resets quarterly,
and is equal to LIBOR plus 3.45% (4.74% at June 30, 2003), provided that this
rate cannot exceed 12.5% through the interest payment date in November 2007. The
junior subordinated debentures will mature on November 7, 2032, at which time
the preferred securities must be redeemed. The Company has provided a full,
irrevocable, and unconditional guarantee on a subordinated basis of the
obligations of Trust II under the preferred securities as set forth in such
guarantee agreement.

NOTE 7 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

As of June 30, 2003, the Company has entered into various interest rate
swap transactions, which result in the Company converting $67.5 million of its
Federal Home Loan Bank Advance fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. The swap
transactions require payment of interest by the Company at a rate equal to the
three-month LIBOR plus a spread and, in turn, the Company receives a fixed rate.

Summary information about interest rate swaps at June 30 are as
follows:

2003 2002
---- ----
(Dollars in thousands)
Notional amounts $ 67,500 $ 20,000
Weighted average fixed rates received 5.91% 4.59%
Weighted average variable rates paid 3.68 2.04
Weighted average maturity 7.00 years 3.41 years
Fair value $ 2,807 $ 428

The Company has also bought and sold various put and call options with
terms less than or equal to 90 days on mortgage-backed securities. These are
stand-alone derivatives that are carried at their estimated fair value with the
corresponding gain or loss recorded in option income. The Company had no options
outstanding at June 30, 2003 and 2002.

In August 2002, the Company entered into a credit derivative
transaction with a notional amount of $20 million for a term of five years,
maturing August 30, 2007. The credit swap has a credit rating of Aa2/AA by
Moody's and Standard and Poors. In November 2002, the Company entered a credit
derivative transaction with a notional amount of $30 million for a term of five
years, maturing November 27, 2007. The second credit swap has a credit rating of
Aa1/AAA by Moody's and Standard and Poors. The notional amount, which is the
Company's maximum credit risk, represents the maximum accounting loss that could
be recognized at the reporting date if actual defaults exceeded certain
thresholds. These are stand-alone derivatives with changes in the market value
charged or credited to earnings on a quarterly basis. The Company receives fee
income quarterly (1.25% of the notional amount on an annual basis) to cover
potential credit losses in the event that actual defaults incurred by each
underlying instrument exceed certain thresholds. On each inception date, the
Company received 1% of the notional amount as payment for entering into each
contract. There has been no material change at June 30, 2003 in the fair value
of $500,000 since the Company entered into these credit derivatives. In both
transactions, the underlying asset-backed security is $1 billion and is
diversified amongst 100 companies.

NOTE 8 - STOCK COMPENSATION

Employee compensation expense under stock options is reported using the
intrinsic value method. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net
income, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to or greater than
the market price of the underlying common stock at date of grant. The following
table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if expense was
measured using the fair

NOTE 9 - OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet
risk in the normal course of business to meet financing needs of customers.
Since many commitments to extend credit expire without being used, the amounts
below do not necessarily represent future cash commitments. These financial
instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and
unused lines of credit. Included in the commitments to extend credit are the
notional amounts of the credit derivative transactions discussed in Note 7.
These are summarized as follows:

(In thousands) June 30, December 31,
2003 2002
---- ----
Financial instruments whose contract amounts
represent credit risk
Unused lines of credit $ 293,899 $ 249,988
Commitments to extend credit 100,890 94,594
Letters of credit 20,226 20,329

At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, commitments to extend credit
consisted of $7,847,000 and $18,933,000 of fixed rate loan commitments. These
commitments are due to expire within 30 to 90 days of issuance and have rates
ranging primarily from 3.50% to 7.50%. Substantially all of the unused lines of
credit are at adjustable rates of interest.

The Company also had Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") investment
commitments outstanding of $3.5 million. These commitments include $1.5 million
and $1.0 million to be funded over seven and six years for investment in the
Chicago Equity Fund and $1.0 million to be funded over nine years for investment
in the Illinois Equity Fund.

The credit risk amounts represent the maximum accounting loss that
would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to
perform as contracted and any collateral or security proved to be of no value.
The Company has experienced little difficulty in accessing collateral when
necessary. The amounts of credit risk shown therefore greatly exceed expected
losses.

NOTE 10 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Guarantees: The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB
Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an
interpretation of FASB Statement Nos. 5, 57 and 107 and Rescission of FASB
Interpretation No. 34. This interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be
made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its
obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that
a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a
liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain
guarantees. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of the
Interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or
modified after December 15, 2002. The adoption of the provisions of this
Interpretation did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated
financial statements during the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, "Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities". FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research
Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements" to certain variable
interest entities (VIEs) in which equity investors do not have the
characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient
equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional
subordinated financial support from other parties. The recognition and
measurement provisions of this Interpretation are effective for newly created
VIEs formed after January 31, 2003, and for existing VIEs on the first interim
or annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company has no
newly formed VIEs subject to the January 31, 2003 effective date. The Company
will adopt the provisions of FIN 46 for existing VIEs on July 1, 2003. The
Company is in the process of determining whether its pre-existing balance sheet
and off-balance sheet structures are subject to the provisions of FIN 46. At
this time the Company does not believe that adoption of FIN 46 will have a
material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement
133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" to amend and clarify
financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities
under FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." In addition, this Statement requires that contracts with comparable
characteristics be accounted for similarly. This Statement is effective for
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 (with certain exceptions)
and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. At this time, the
Company does not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 149 will have a material
effect on the Company's financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity,"
which affects the accounting for certain freestanding financial instruments
depending on the type of financial instrument. The following types of
freestanding financial instruments are affected by SFAS No. 150: 1.) mandatorily
redeemable shares for which the issuer is obligated to purchase those shares;
2.) obligations to repurchase the issuer's equity shares; and 3.) certain
obligations to issue a variable number of shares. This Statement is effective
for affected financial instruments issued or modified after May 31, 2003. For
those issued prior to May 31, 2002, the Statement is required to be applied for
periods beginning after December 15, 2003. At this time, the Company does not
believe that adoption of SFAS No. 150 will have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

NOTE 11 - CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION AND REGULATORY MATTERS

As previously reported by the Company, on March 26, 2003, Midwest Bank
and Trust Company ("Bank") received proceeds from an entity indirectly owned by
certain directors and family members of directors of the Bank of approximately
$13.3 million in connection with the sale of previously classified loans, which
consisted of $12.5 million of the loan principal balance, $750,000 for the
letter of credit and

PAGE 14





$67,000 of accrued interest and late charges. As a result, the Bank recognized a
$4.0 million after-tax capital contribution as a result of the sale of these
loans to the related parties. As of December 31, 2002, $6.3 million of the $12.5
million outstanding principal amount of these loans was considered impaired.

During March 2003, the Board of Directors of the Bank considered and
approved a proposal for extension of credit to this entity, but
management of the Bank has indicated that no commitment to extend such credit
has been issued and that the Bank presently has no plans to extend such credit.
In an April 10, 2003 letter to the Company, the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago
and the Illinois Office of Banks and Real Estate indicated that they would
require the Bank to reserve (which could be treated as an other expense for
financial reporting purposes) as of March 31, 2003, on a dollar for dollar basis
up to $8 million, if the Bank had issued a commitment to extend such loan or if
representations had been made to the bankruptcy court of the Bank's willingness
to provide credit to fund a plan of reorganization for the borrowers. The
Company is presently in discussions with the Federal Reserve and OBRE concerning
this matter. Since the Bank has not issued a commitment to extend such credit
and presently has no plans to do so, no reserve has been established by the Bank
relating to this matter.

On April 24, 2003, the Federal Reserve and the OBRE completed their
regularly scheduled examination of the Company's banking subsidiaries. The
examination included, among other items, a review of the Company's over-all risk
management, lending and credit review practices. Based upon preliminary
discussions with the regulators, the Company expects some form of informal or
formal regulatory action will be taken. The Company expected to receive the
written examination report during the second quarter; however the examination
report has not yet been received.

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


The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of
significant factors affecting the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company for the periods indicated. The discussion should
be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
and the Notes thereto presented herein. In addition to historical
information, the following Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual
results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed in this
report.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. By their nature, changes in these
assumptions and estimates could significantly affect the Company's financial
position or results of operations. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Discussed below are those critical accounting policies that are of
particular significance to the Company.

Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation
allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for
loan losses and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries. Management estimates
the allowance balance required based on past loan loss experience, the nature
and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and
estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations
of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is
available for any loan that, in management's judgment, should be charged off.
Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes that the
uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial
instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other
assumptions. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and
other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items.
There is no ready market for a significant portion of the Company's financial
instruments. Accordingly, fair values are based on various factors relative to
expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics, and
other factors. The assumptions and estimates used in the fair value
determination process are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and
significant judgment and, therefore, fair values cannot be determined with
precision. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly
affect the estimates.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 AND 2002

Consolidated net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $7.8 million
or $0.44 and $0.43 per basic and diluted share, respectively, a 22.0% or $1.4
million increase compared to $6.4 million or $0.40 and $0.39 per basic and
diluted share, respectively, for the second quarter of 2002. Diluted earnings
per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was 10.3% higher than for the
comparable period in 2002. Consolidated net income for the six months ended June
30, 2003 was $14.2 million or $0.80 and $0.78 per basic and diluted share,
respectively, an 11.7% or $1.5 million increase compared to $12.7 million or
$0.79 and $0.77 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the similar
period in 2002. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30,
2003 was 1.3% higher than for the comparable period in 2002. The return on
average assets for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was 1.40% compared to
1.38% for the similar period in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003,
the return on average assets was 1.29% compared to 1.39% for the similar period
in 2002. The return on average equity for the three months ended June 30, 2003
was 19.63% compared to 24.19% for the similar period in 2002. For the six months
ended June 30, 2003, the return on average equity was 18.71% compared to 24.86%
for the similar period in 2002.

Net interest income decreased 4.3% or $671,000 to $14.8 million in the
second quarter of 2003 compared to $15.5 million in the second quarter of 2002.
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, net interest income increased 4.8% or
$1.5 million to $31.8 million compared to $30.3 million for the comparable
period in 2002. Excluding gains on securities and trading account profits, other
income increased 99.3% to $5.1 million and other expenses increased 26.1% to
$10.7 million in the second quarter of 2003. Other income, excluding gains on
securities and trading account profits, increased 73.1% to $9.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the similar period in 2002. Other
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $4.8 million or
28.8% compared to the similar period in 2002.

Net Interest Income
- -------------------

Net interest income is the difference between interest income and fees
on earning assets and interest expense on deposits and borrowings. Net interest
margin represents net interest income on a tax equivalent basis as a percentage
of average earning assets during the period. Net interest margin reflects the
spread between average yields earned on interest earning assets and the average
rates paid on interest bearing deposits and borrowings.

Net interest income was $14.8 million and $15.5 million during the
three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, a decrease of $671,000,
or 4.3%. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, net interest income
increased $1.5 million or 4.8% to $31.8 million compared to $30.3 million for
the similar period in 2002. The Company's net interest margin (tax equivalent
net interest income as a percentage of earning assets) was 3.03% for the three
months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 3.64% for the comparable period in 2002.
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the net interest margin was 3.24%
compared to 3.61% for the similar period in 2002. Due to the low interest rate
environment, the Company experienced an increase in amortization expense
associated with its mortgage-backed securities it hold in its investment
securities portfolio. Amortization expense on the mortgage-backed securities was
$2.7 million and $5.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003,
respectively, compared to $775,000 and $1.7 million for the similar periods in
2002.

The average loan yield was 6.52% during the second quarter of 2003, a
decrease of 6.9% from 7.00% during the comparable period in 2002. For the six
months ended June 30, 2003, the average loan yield was 6.62%, a decrease of 5.4%
from 7.00% during the comparable period in 2002. Average loan balances increased
$27.1 million, or 2.5%, to $1.1 billion during the second quarter of 2003 from
$1.1

PAGE 17





billion during the similar period in 2002. During the first six months of
2003, average loan balances increased $110.3 million, or 10.5%, to $1.2 billion
from $1.1 billion during the similar period of 2002. The Company's net interest
income and net income is dependent in part on stable interest rates.

Yields on securities were 4.28% during the second quarter of 2003, a
decrease of 31.0% from 6.20% during the comparable period in 2002. During the
six months ended June 30, 2003, securities yields decreased 26.0% to 4.60% from
6.22% in the comparable period in 2002. The low rate environment stimulated an
increase in mortgage loan refinancing which has accelerated the prepayment
speeds of the Company's mortgage-backed securities and increased amortization
expense on these securities. Amortization expense increased $2.0 million and
$3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the
same periods in 2002. The Company has reallocated its securities holdings in
order to reduce the likelihood of an increase in future amortization expense by
investing a larger portion of the portfolio in lower-yielding U.S. Treasury and
government agency obligations.

Yields on earning assets decreased 18.6% to 5.44% during the second
quarter of 2003 compared to 6.68% for the second quarter of 2003. During the
first six months of 2003, yields on earning assets decreased to 5.70%, or 14.4%,
from 6.66% for the similar period in 2002. Average earning assets, however,
increased to $2.1 billion for both the three months and six months ended June
30, 2003 from $1.8 billion for both the three months and six months ended June
30, 2002. The decrease in yields on earning assets was offset by a decrease in
rates paid on deposits and borrowings. Average rates paid on deposits decreased
22.2% to 2.24% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 2.88% for the
comparable period in 2002. For the first six months of 2003, average rates paid
on deposits decreased 23.0% to 2.28% from 2.96% for the similar period of 2002.
Average rates paid on borrowings were 3.92% for the second quarter of 2003
compared to 4.44% for the second quarter of 2002. During the six months ended
June 30, 2003, average rates paid on borrowings were 3.92% compared to 4.34% for
the similar period in 2002. Average borrowings increased by $81.4 million and
$75.4 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 to $521.1
million and $514.6 million, respectively. FHLB advances increased as a result of
the $33.0 million acquired through BFFC. The Company has converted $67.5 million
of its FHLB advances from fixed rate debt to floating rate through interest rate
swap transactions in December 2002. These swap transactions resulted in a
$382,000 and $754,000 decrease in interest expense for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2003, respectively. Notes payable increased $5.5 million due in
part to the cash needed for the BFFC acquisition. The increase in borrowings was
also a result of the $15.0 million trust preferred securities offering in
October of 2002. Average Fed funds and repurchase agreements increased $51.4
million and $47.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 to
$224.8 million and $218.9 million, respectively.

Going forward, it is expected that the net interest margin will begin
to stabilize and improve, although it is unlikely to increase back to the 2002
level during this year. Key factors for an improvement in the net interest
margin include an increase in loan volumes, slower prepayment speeds on
mortgage-backed securities, an interest rate swap completed early in the third
quarter related to high interest rate FHLB advances, and the impact of deposit
pricing strategies. Nevertheless, expected improvements in the net interest
margins assume no further cuts in interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board of
Governors this year.

and 2002 is shown below (interest income and average rate on non-taxable

Other Income
- ------------

Other income, excluding securities gains and trading account profits,
was $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, an increase of $2.5
million, or 99.3% over the comparable period in 2002. For the six months ended
June 30, 2003, other income, excluding securities gains and trading account
profits, was $9.1 million, an increase of $3.8 million, or 73.1%, compared to
$5.2 million for the comparable period in 2002. The other income to average
assets ratio was 0.92% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to
0.55% for the same period in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the
other income to average assets ratio was 0.83% compared to 0.57% for the same
period in 2002. The increase in other income is due to increases in service
charges on deposits, option income, insurance and brokerage commissions, and
mortgage banking fees.

Service charges and fees increased 2.2%, or $31,000, to $1.4 million in
the second quarter of 2003 from $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2002.
Year-to-date, service charges and fees increased 7.1%, or $192,000, to $2.9
million in 2003 compared to $2.7 million for the comparable period in 2002. This
increase in service charges and fees, which include service charges on deposit
accounts, is mainly due to deposit growth. Management expects service charges
and fees to increase with future deposit growth.

Insurance and brokerage commissions increased $162,000 from $394,000 in
the second quarter of 2002 to $556,000 for the second quarter of 2003. For the
six months ended June 30, 2003, insurance and brokerage commissions increased
$474,000 to $1.0 million compared to $540,000 for the first six months of 2002.
This increase is due to the increased investment brokerage activities through
Midwest Financial and Investment Services, Inc., the Company's subsidiary, which
provides securities brokerage services to both bank and non-bank customers. The
Company anticipates that investment brokerage commissions will increase in the
future through this subsidiary.

Mortgage banking fees increased $288,000 or 323.6% to $377,000 during
the second quarter of 2003 compared to $89,000 for the similar period in 2002.
Year-to-date, mortgage banking fees increased $434,000 or 187.9% to $665,000 in
2003 compared to $231,000 for the similar period in 2002. The Company places
most mortgages originated into the secondary market. The increase in mortgage
banking fees is attributed to the ongoing refinancing boom which may not
continue at current levels and may result in less fees in the future.

Trust income increased by 15.0% or $22,000 to $169,000 for the second
quarter of 2003 compared to $147,000 for the similar period in 2002. For the six
months ended June 30, 2003, trust income increased by $9,000 compared to the six
months ended June 30, 2002.

The Company manages its securities available-for-sale portfolio and
trading account portfolio on a total return basis. In this respect, management
regularly reviews the performance of its securities and sells specific
securities to provide opportunities to enhance net interest income and net
interest margin, and when possible it will recognize gains on the sale of
securities. The Company has a long history of managing its securities in this
manner. Trading account profits result from trading strategies that are utilized
to supplement narrowing bond yields during periods of interest rate volatility.
Net trading account profits were $130,000 and $3,000 during the second quarter
of 2003 and 2002, respectively. Year-to-date, net trading account profits were
$130,000 and $348,000 in 2003 and 2002, respectively. Sales of securities
available-for-sale resulted in net gains of $2.7 million in the second quarter
of 2003 compared to $757,000 for the comparable period in 2002. For the six
months ended June 30, 2003, gains on sales of securities available-for-sale were
$2.8 million compared to $1.3 million for the similar period in 2002. Securities
available-for-sale are held in a manner which allows for their sale in response
to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, or significant prepayment risk.
The Company also looks for opportunities to enhance its revenues by purchasing
and/or selling securities held in the portfolio as deemed appropriate by
management.

Periodically, the Company has bought or sold various covered put and
call options, with terms less than or equal to 90 days, on mortgage-backed
securities as well as U.S. Treasury and government agency obligations. These
covered options have either expired or have been exercised, and the associated
income or expense has been recognized in the corresponding period. Option fee
income is a part of management's ongoing program to manage risk in the
securities portfolio and take advantage of favorable market conditions. Option
fee income increased $1.9 million to $2.0 million during the second quarter of
2003 compared to $122,000 in the second quarter of 2002. For the six months
ended June 30, 2003, option fee income increased $2.4 million to $3.0 million
compared to $654,000 in the similar period in 2002. The Company had no covered
put or call options outstanding at June 30, 2003. See Note 7 to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements.

Other Expenses
- --------------

Total other expenses increased 26.1%, or $2.2 million, to $10.7 million
during the second quarter of 2003 compared to $8.5 million for the comparable
period in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, total other expenses
increased 28.8%, or $4.8 million, to $21.5 million from $16.7 million in the
first six months of 2002. The other expenses to average assets ratio was 1.92%
for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 1.82% for the same period
in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the other expenses to average
assets ratio was 1.96% compared to 1.83% for the similar period in 2002. The net
overhead expenses to average assets ratio was 1.00% for the three months ended
June 30, 2003 compared to 1.27% for the same period in 2002. For the six months
ended June 30, 2003, the net overhead expenses to average assets ratio was 1.13%
compared to 1.25% for the similar period in 2002. The efficiency ratio was
49.86% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 44.84% for the same
period in 2002. The efficiency ratio was 49.15% for the six months ended June
30, 2003 compared to 44.74% for the similar period in 2002.

PAGE 21





Salary and benefit expenses increased 12.6% or $756,000 to $6.0 million
for the second quarter of 2003 compared to $5.2 million for the similar period
in 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, salary and benefit expenses
increased $1.8 million or 17.7% to $12.1 million from $10.2 million for the
comparable period in 2002. The full-time equivalent number of employees was 433
as of June 30, 2003 compared to 383 as of June 30, 2002. Increased full-time
staff positions, including investment brokerage staff, employees added through
the acquisition of BFFC, and other new positions was the primary reason for the
increase in salaries and benefits. Enhanced benefit programs and increased
health insurance costs have also contributed in the increase in salaries and
employee benefits. Health insurance expense increased 15% for the 2003 plan
year.

Occupancy expenses increased $236,000 or 19.2% to $1.5 million during
the second quarter of 2003 compared to $1.2 million for the comparable period in
2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, occupancy expenses increased
$841,000 or 35.3% to $3.2 million from $2.4 million in the six months of 2002.
This increase reflects the addition of the three branches acquired as a result
of the BFFC acquisition.

Expenses, other than salary and employee benefits and occupancy,
increased $1.2 million or 61.0% to $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2003
compared to the similar period in 2002. Other expenses increased $2.1 million or
12.9% to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $4.0 million
for the comparable period in 2002. The increase in expenses was due primarily to
outsourcing arrangements, marketing expenses, and other loan related expenses.

Due to the acquisition of BFFC, the Company incurred nonrecurring
expenses of $126,000 in legal and data conversion fees, $348,000 due to the
disposal and purchase of equipment, and $30,000 in other operating expenses. Due
to the termination of the CoVest agreement, $425,000 in legal, consulting, and
data conversion fees were expensed. Specific collection expenses due to problem
loans reflected in the first six months of 2003 include $430,000, in
professional fees.

Income Taxes
- ------------

The Company recorded income tax expense of $3.5 million, or 31.3% of
income, and $3.2 million, or 33.1% of income, for the quarters ended June 30,
2003 and 2002, respectively. Year-to-date, the provision for income taxes
increased $35,000 or 0.5%. Income tax as a percent of income has decreased due
to the impact of a new regulation issued by the Illinois Department of Revenue
related to apportionment of business income of financial organizations as well
as the implementation of various other tax planning strategies.

$12.8 million or 5.6% to $217.0 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $229.8
million as of December 31, 2002. Commercial real estate loans decreased 5.5% or
$40.1 million to $730.8 million as of June 30, 2003 from $690.1 million as of
December 31, 2002. Agricultural loans decreased 2.0% or $1.1 million to $56.3
million as of June 30, 2003 from $57.4 million as of December 31, 2002. Loan
demand was affected by current economic conditions, increased prepayments of
commercial and commercial real estate loans, and management's decision to
maintain fixed rate pricing disciplines to protect longer-term profitability.

Consumer real estate loans decreased $3.3 million or 3.1% to $102.1
million as of June 30, 2003 from $105.4 million as of December 31, 2002.
Consumer loans decreased $1.4 million or 9.7% to $13.2 million as of June 30,
2003 compared to $14.6 million as of December 31, 2002.

Most mortgage loans the Company originates are sold in the secondary
market. At any point in time, loans will be at various stages of the mortgage
banking process. Included as part of consumer real estate loans are loans held
for sale, which were $4.9 million as of December 31, 2002 and $5.1 million at
June 30, 2003. The carrying value of these loans approximated their market value
at that time.

Looking ahead, there is evidence that loan demand may be rebounding
based upon an increase in the internal loan pipeline and the growth of unused
customer commitments of the Company's banking subsidiaries.

Allowance for Loan Losses
- -------------------------

An allowance for loan losses has been established by management to
provide for those loans that may not be repaid in their entirety for a variety
of reasons. The allowance is maintained at a level considered by management to
be adequate to provide for probable incurred losses. The allowance is increased
by provisions charged to earnings and is reduced by chargeoffs, net of
recoveries. The provision for loan losses is based upon past loan loss
experience and management's evaluation of the loan portfolio under current
economic conditions. Loans are charged to the allowance for loan losses when,
and to the extent, they are deemed by management to be uncollectible. The
allowance for loan losses is composed of allocations for specific loans and a
historical portion for all other loans.

Following is a summary of changes in the allowance for loan losses for
the six months ended June 30:

---------- ----------

Balance, June 30 $ 12,044 $ 11,210
========== ==========

(1)Adjustment made following the March 26, 2003 receipt of $13.3
million of proceeds relating to the sale of certain loans, of which
$12.5 million was applied to outstanding principal, $750,000 to the
letter of credit, and $67,000 applied to interest income and late
charges. See Note 11.

The Company recognizes that credit losses in the loan portfolio will be
experienced and the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, general
economic conditions; the type of loan being made; the creditworthiness of the
borrower over the term of the loan and in the case of a collateralized loan, the
quality of the collateral for such loan. The allowance for loan losses
represents the Company's estimate of the allowance necessary to provide for
probable incurred losses in the portfolio. In making this determination, the
Company analyzes the ultimate collectibility of the loans in its portfolio by
incorporating feedback provided by internal loan staff, an independent loan
review function, and information provided by examinations performed by
regulatory agencies. The Company makes an ongoing evaluation as to the adequacy
of the allowance for loan losses.

On a quarterly basis, management of the Banks meets to review the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Each bank loan officer grades these
individual credits, and the Company's independent loan review function validates
the officers' grades. In the event that loan review downgrades the loan, it is
included in the allowance analysis at the lower grade. The grading system is in
compliance with applicable regulatory classifications, and the allowance is
allocated to the loans based on the regulatory grading, except in instances
where there are known differences (e.g. collateral value is nominal).

The analysis of the allowance for loan losses is comprised of three
components: specific credit allocation; general portfolio allocation; and
subjectively determined allocation. The specific credit allocation includes a
detailed review of the credit in accordance with SFAS Nos. 114 and 118, and an
allocation is made based on this analysis. The general portfolio allocation
consists of an assigned reserve percentage based on the credit rating of the
loan and charge-off history. The subjective portion is determined based on loan
history and the Company's evaluation of various factors including economic and
industry outlooks. In addition, the subjective portion of the allowance is
influenced by current economic conditions and trends in the portfolio including
delinquencies and impairments, as well as changes in the composition of the
portfolio.

The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates, and ultimate
losses will vary from current estimates. These estimates are reviewed quarterly,
and as adjustments, either positive or negative, become necessary, a
corresponding increase or decrease is made in the provision for loan losses. The
methodology used to determine the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan
losses is consistent with prior periods.

The Company's provision for loan losses was $755,000 for the second
quarter of 2003 compared to $815,000 for the similar period in 2002. For the six
months ended June 30, 2003, the provision for losses was $1.7 million compared
to $1.5 million for the comparable period in 2002.

PAGE 24





The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.12%
as of June 30, 2003 and 1.83% as of December 31, 2002. See Note 11.

Nonaccrual and Nonperforming Loans
- ----------------------------------

Nonaccrual loans decreased to $22.5 million as of June 30, 2003 from
$29.0 million as of December 31, 2002. On March 26, 2003, $12.5 million of
nonaccrual loans were sold. See Note 11.

Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans and accruing loans which
are 90 days or more delinquent. Typically, these loans have adequate collateral
protection or personal guaranties to provide a source of repayment to the Bank.
Nonperforming loans were $24.7 million as of June 30, 2003 compared to $31.5
million at December 31, 2002


The following table sets forth information on the Company's
nonperforming loans and other nonperforming assets as of the indicated dates.

The Company utilizes an internal asset classification system as a means
of reporting problem and potential problem assets. At each scheduled bank Board
of Directors meeting, a watch list is presented, showing significant loan
relationships listed as Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful. An asset is
classified Substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth
and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. Assets
classified as Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified
Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make
collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts,
conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets classified as
Loss are those considered uncollectible and viewed as non-bankable assets and
have been charged off. Assets that do not currently expose the Company to
sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned
categories, but possess weaknesses that may or may not be within the control of
the customer, are deemed to be Special Mention.

The Company's determination as to the classification of its assets and
the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the Banks'
primary regulators in the course of its regulatory examinations, which can order
the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. There can
be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing the Company's loan portfolio, will
not request the Company to materially increase its allowance for loan losses.
Although management believes that

PAGE 25





adequate specific and general loan loss allowances have been established, actual
losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the
level of specific and general loan loss allowances may become necessary.

The Company has four problem loans which total $19.2 million, or 77.7%
of total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2003. Specific reserves of $6.6 million
have been established for these loans. The remaining nonperforming loans are
individually less than $2.0 million. The first loan, a commercial loan, totals
$5.2 million and a specific reserve of $4.7 million has been established for it.
The second loan, is a townhouse development loan of $9.5 million of which the
borrower has ceased construction activities on the project and a construction
manager has been appointed. The Company will continue the development on an
interim basis as the property is marketed. The value of this property is based
on management's estimates. The Company is in process of obtaining an independent
valuation. A specific reserve of $929,000 has been established on this loan. The
third loan has a $1.0 million balance. This commercial credit was classified as
doubtful by bank regulators and has been reduced from $2.2 million since the
beginning of 2003. The Company expects the remaining balance to be fully
collected and recoveries of the previously charged-off portion of the loan are
anticipated. The fourth loan of $3.5 million is for the conversion and
rehabilitation of three mixed use buildings into condos and commercial units.
While this loan has not performed as originally expected, the Company has
adequate collateral coverage and no specific reserve has been established. The
Company feels that adequate specific reserves have been established for problems
loans, however, there is no guaranty that the reserves will be sufficient.

Potential problem loans are loans included on the watch list presented
to the Board of Directors that do not meet the definition of a nonperforming
loan, but where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers
causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to
comply with present loan repayment terms. At June 30, 2003, special mention,
substandard, and doubtful classifications were $12.5 million, $36.1 million, and
$564,000, respectively, compared to $4.9 million, $8.0 million, and $355,000,
respectively, at December 31, 2002. Total classifications include those loans
that have been adversely classified by bank examiners and the Company's internal
loan review department. The Company's allowance for loan losses is considered by
management to be adequate at June 30, 2003.

Securities
- ----------

The Company manages its securities portfolio to provide a source of
both liquidity and earnings. Each Bank has its own asset/liability committee,
which develops current investment policies based upon its operating needs and
market circumstances. The investment policy of each Bank is reviewed by senior
financial management of the Company in terms of its objectives, investment
guidelines and consistency with overall Company performance and risk management
goals. Each Bank's investment policy is formally reviewed and approved annually
by its board of directors. The asset/liability committee of each Bank is
responsible for reporting and monitoring compliance with the investment policy.
Reports are provided to each Bank's board of directors and the Board of
Directors of the Company on a regular basis.

Historically, the Company has invested in mortgage-backed securities.
All fixed and adjustable rate mortgage pools contain a certain amount of risk
related to the uncertainty of prepayments of the underlying mortgages. Interest
rate changes have a direct impact upon prepayment rates. The Company uses
computer simulation models to test the average life, duration and yield
volatility of adjustable rate mortgage pools under various interest rate
assumptions to monitor volatility. Stress tests are performed quarterly.

Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with related
unrealized net gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, recorded as an
adjustment to equity capital. As of June 30, 2003, unrealized

PAGE 26





gains, net of taxes, on securities available-for-sale decreased $1.0 million
from $7.1 million at December 31, 2002 to $6.1 million. This change resulted in
a $1.0 million decrease in book equity.

Securities available-for-sale increased to $950.8 million as of June
30, 2003 from $651.9 million as of December 31, 2002. This increase is primarily
due to the reinvestment of the $141.9 million in proceeds from the sale of
mortgage loans acquired through the BFFC acquisition and to the reduced loan
volume. At December 31, 2002, the Company's holdings of mortgage-backed
securities accounted for 78.5% of total investments. Due to the low interest
rate environment, prepayment rates have increased and the Company has
experienced an increase in amortization expense associated with its
mortgage-backed securities. Amortization expense on the mortgage-backed
securities increased $1.9 million and $3.3 million for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the similar periods in 2002. The Company
has reallocated its securities holdings in order to mitigate the increase in
amortization expense. At June 30, 2003, mortgage-backed securities were 40.8% of
the portfolio. U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities decreased 29.6%
or $146.7 million from $495.6 million as of December 31, 2002 to $348.8 million
as of June 30, 2003. U.S. Treasury and government agency obligations increased
$263.3 million to $287.1 million, representing 28.0% of the portfolio as of June
30, 2003 compared to $23.9 million as of December 31, 2002. Equity securities
increased $60.8 from $59.4 million at December 31, 2002 to $120.2 million as of
June 30, 2003. Equity securities at June 30, 2003 included capital securities of
United States agencies, bond-rated or credit equivalent community banks, and the
Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock. Other bonds increased
$121.1 million to $128.3 million at June 30, 2003 compared to $7.1 million at
December 31, 2002. Other bonds include high grade corporate bonds primarily
issued by financial institutions. Obligations of state and political
subdivisions increased $1.8 million to $56.9 million at June 30, 2003 from $55.1
million at December 31, 2002.

Securities held-to-maturity decreased $32.6 million or 27.5% from
December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Under permissible provisions of FASB
Statement No. 115, $3.4 million of mortgage-backed securities acquired through
the acquisition of BFFC were reclassified from held-to-maturity to
available-for-sale.

There were no trading account securities held at June 30, 2003 or
December 31, 2002. The Company holds trading account securities on a short-term
basis based on market and liquidity conditions.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance
- -------------------------

The Company's investment in Bank-Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI")
increased by $3.8 million; $3.3 million was acquired through the acquisition of
BFFC and the cash surrender value of the insurance increased $491,000 at June
30, 2003. The BOLI is intended to provide funding for future employee benefit
expense.


Deposits and Borrowed Funds
- ---------------------------

Total deposits of $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2003 represented an
increase of $190.0 million or 13.7% from $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2002.
Non-interest-bearing deposits were $148.5 million as of June 30, 2003,
approximately $13.6 million higher than the $134.9 million level as of December
31, 2002. Over the same period, interest-bearing deposits increased 14.0% or
$176.1 million. Certificates of deposit under $100,000 increased $123.9 million
from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003. Certificates of deposit over $100,000
and public funds decreased by $70.3 million from December 31, 2002 to June 30,
2003. The majority of the decrease was a result of brokered certificates of
deposit and public fund maturities. The Company's marketing efforts focused on
core and time deposit account growth in its retail markets, reducing the need
for public funds and brokered certificates of deposit.

PAGE 27





The Company acquired $73.4 million in core deposits and $64.6 million
in time deposits through the acquisition of BFFC. Deposits at these three
branches increased 18.8% to $163.9 million at June 30, 2003 compared to January
3, 2003, the acquisition date.

The Company's membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank System gives it
the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago for
short- or long-term purposes under a variety of programs. The loans are used to
fund growth and permit the Banks to extend term maturities, reduce funding costs
and manage interest rate risk exposures more effectively.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $255.8 million at June 30, 2003
and $219.5 million at December 31, 2002. FHLB advances increased as a result of
the $33.0 million acquired through BFFC. The Company has converted $67.5 million
of its FHLB advances from fixed rate debt to floating rate through interest rate
swap transactions in December 2002. These swap transactions resulted in a
$382,000 and $754,000 decrease in interest expense for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2003. The weighted average rate for Federal Home Loan Bank
advances was 4.80% during the six months ended June 30, 2003, with a range of
maturities between one and ten years.


Borrowed funds are listed below:

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances

Revolving line of credit 7,500 2,000
----------- -----------

Total notes payable $ 266,094 $ 221,500
=========== ===========

The Company has a credit agreement with a correspondent bank (the
"Credit Agreement"), which provides the Company with a revolving line of credit
with a maximum availability of $10.0 million and $25.0 million for June 30, 2003
and December 31, 2002, respectively. This revolving line of credit matures on
January 30, 2004.

Amounts outstanding under the Company's revolving line of credit
represent borrowings incurred to provide capital contributions to the Banks to
support their growth. The Company makes interest payments, at its option, at the
30-, 60-, 90-, or 180-day London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 120
basis points or the prime rate less 25 basis points. At July 30, 2003, the
Company had $7.5 million outstanding.

The revolving line of credit included the following covenants at June
30, 2003: (1) the banks must not have nonperforming assets in excess of 25% of
Tier 1 capital plus the loan loss allowance; (2) the Company and each subsidiary
bank must be considered well capitalized; (3) the Company must maintain
consolidated tangible net worth (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less
than $70 million; and (4) consolidated net income for the four previous quarters
combined must be at least $5.5 million. The Company was in compliance with these
covenants at June 30, 2003.

The Company also utilizes securities sold under repurchase agreements
as a source of funds. Most local municipalities and some other organizations
must have funds insured or collateralized pursuant to their own policies.
Repurchase agreements provide a source of funds and do not increase the
Company's reserve requirement. Although the balance of repurchase agreements is
subject to variation, particularly seasonal variation, the account relationships
represented by these balances are principally local and have been maintained for
relatively long periods of time. The Company had $193.1 million in

PAGE 28





securities sold under repurchase agreements at June 30, 2003 compared to $185.1
million at December 31, 2002. The Company had $3.8 million in federal funds
purchased at June 30, 2003 compared to $20.8 million at December 31, 2002.

The Company issued 10% junior subordinated debentures aggregating $20.0
million to MBHI Capital Trust I, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The
junior subordinated debentures pay interest on a quarterly basis and will mature
on June 7, 2030. The junior subordinated debentures can be redeemed in whole or
in part, beginning June 7, 2005.

MBHI Capital Trust II ("Trust II") issued $15.0 million in aggregate
liquidation amount of trust preferred securities in a private placement
offering. Simultaneously with the issuance of the trust preferred securities by
Trust II, the Company issued an equivalent amount of junior subordinated
debentures to Trust II. The junior subordinated debentures are the sole assets
of Trust II. The junior subordinated debentures and the trust preferred
securities pay distributions and dividends, respectively, on a quarterly basis,
which are included in interest expense. The interest rate payable on the
debentures and the trust preferred securities resets quarterly, and is equal to
LIBOR plus 3.45% (4.74% at June 30, 2003), provided that this rate cannot exceed
12.5% through the interest payment date in November 2007. The junior
subordinated debentures will mature on November 7, 2032, at which time the
preferred securities must be redeemed.

Capital Resources
- -----------------

Stockholders' equity increased $44.9 million or 39.1% to $159.9 million
at June 30, 2003 from $115.0 million at December 31, 2002. Total capital to
average risk based capital increased to 11.9% on June 30, 2003 from 11.7% on
December 31, 2002. During January 2003, the Company issued 1,599,088 shares of
common stock due to the acquisition of BFFC. The purchase price for that
acquisition totaled $30.4 million. On March 26, 2003, stockholders' equity
increased by $4.0 million due to the payoff of a loan by certain related parties
of the Company. See Note 11.

The Company and its two subsidiary banks are subject to regulatory
capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy
guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative
measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are
also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk
weightings and other factors, and the regulators can lower classifications in
certain areas. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate
regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial
statements.

The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications,
including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these
terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately
capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If
undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and
expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required.

The Company and each of the Banks were considered well capitalized as
of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. Management is not aware of any
conditions or events since the most recent regulatory notification that would
change the Company's or the Banks' categories.

Liquidity
- ---------

Liquidity measures the ability of the Company to meet maturing
obligations and its existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit
levels, to fund its operations and to provide for customers' credit needs. The
liquidity of the Company principally depends on cash flows from operating
activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances of
deposits and borrowings and its ability to borrow funds in the money or capital
markets.

Net cash inflows provided by operations were $32.0 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $19.3 million a year earlier. Net cash
outflows from investing activities were $43.7 million in the first six months of
2003 compared to a net cash outflow of $66.3 million a year earlier. Cash
inflows from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were
$46.2 million compared to a net inflow of $88.9 million in 2002.

In the event of short-term liquidity needs, the Banks may purchase
federal funds from correspondent banks. In addition, the Company has established
repurchase agreements and brokered certificates of deposit arrangements with
various financial sources. The Company's membership in the Federal Home Loan
Bank System gives it the ability to borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank
of Chicago for short- or long-term purposes under a variety of programs. The
Company also has a $10.0 million revolving line of credit of which $2.5 million
is available.

The Banks also have various funding arrangements with commercial and
investment banks providing up to $2.3 billion of available funding sources in
the form of Federal funds lines, repurchase agreements, and brokered certificate
of deposit programs. Unused capacity under these lines was $1.8 billion at June
30, 2003. The Banks maintain these funding arrangements to achieve favorable
costs of funds, manage interest rate risk, and enhance liquidity in the event of
deposit withdrawals.

Interest received net of interest paid was a principal source of
operating cash inflows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and June
30, 2002, respectively. Management of investing and financing activities and
market conditions determine the level and the stability of net interest cash
flows.

PAGE 31





Management's policy is to mitigate the impact of changes in market interest
rates to the extent possible so that balance sheet growth is the principal
determinant of growth in net interest cash flows.

PAGE 32





ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis
- ----------------------------------

The Company's overall interest rate sensitivity is demonstrated by net
interest income analysis. Net interest income analysis measures the change in
net interest income in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates. This
analysis assesses the risk of change in net interest income in the event of
sudden and sustained 1.0% to 2.0% increases and 1.0% decrease in market interest
rates. The table below presents the Company's projected changes in net interest
income for the various rate shock levels at June 30, 2003. The base scenario is
a forecast of net interest income over the next twelve months based on a static
balance sheet as of June 30, 2003.

NET INTEREST INCOME
------------------------------------------------
AMOUNT $ CHANGE % CHANGE
------ -------- --------
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)


+200 bp $ 64,927 $ (3,108) (4.57)%
+100 bp 66,367 (1,668) (2.45)
Base 68,035 - -
-100 bp 68,002 (32) 0.05


As shown above, at June 30, 2003, the effect of an immediate 100 basis
point decrease in interest rates would decrease the Company's net interest
income by 0.05% or $32,000. The effect of an immediate 200 basis point increase
in rates would decrease the Company's net interest income by 4.57% or $3.1
million.

The projected changes in the Company's net interest income for the
various rate shock levels at December 31, 2002 were as follows:

NET INTEREST INCOME
------------------------------------------------
AMOUNT $ CHANGE % CHANGE
------ -------- --------
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)


+200 bp $ 64,348 $ (2,137) (3.21)%
+100 bp 64,487 (1,998) (3.01)
Base 66,485 - -
-100 bp 67,360 875 1.32


Computations of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes
are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest
rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be relied upon
as indicative of actual results. Actual values may differ from those projections
set forth above should market conditions vary from assumptions used in preparing
the analyses. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the
Company may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.

PAGE 33





ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation, with
the participation of other members of management as they deemed appropriate, of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures as contemplated by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon,
and as of the date of that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective, in all material respects, in timely alerting them to
material information relating to the Company (and its consolidated subsidiaries)
required to be included in the periodic reports the Company is required to file
and submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act. While management concluded that
its disclosure controls and procedures are adequate in all material respects for
SEC reporting purposes, the Company is currently reviewing its policies and
procedures regarding identification and classification of problem loans and its
asset quality review process in an effort to avoid subsequent changes to
previously reported financial results.

There have been no significant changes to the Company's internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls
subsequent to the date that the internal controls were most recently evaluated
nor were there identified any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses
requiring corrective actions other than noted as follows. The Company's
management is addressing a reportable condition, i.e. one with significant
deficiencies in the design or operation of internal control, and other risk
management concerns that have been raised by the former external auditor and
bank regulators. The Company is currently reviewing its asset quality review
policies and procedures and may implement additional processes and controls to
strengthen its risk management. The Company's management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that its
disclosure controls or its internal controls will prevent all error and all
fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide
only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
Further, the design of a control system will take into account resource
constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their
costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation
of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances
of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be
faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Additionally, any system of controls can be circumvented by the individual acts
of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override
of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon
certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions; in addition, over time, controls may need to be
changed in order to address changes in conditions, or other factors in order to
remain effective. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective
control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be
detected. However, the Company's management believes its system of controls
provides reasonable assurances that the information required to be disclosed in
the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time frames specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
