ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
(d) NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
The Company is a financial holding company as defined under the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"). The BHC Act
regulates acquisitions by the Company of voting shares or assets of
any bank or other company. The Company is subject to the reporting
requirements of, and examination and regulation by, the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as well as reporting
requirements under the Securities and Exchange Commission Act of
1934.
The Banks' are located in northeastern, eastern, southeastern and
south central Ohio and are engaged in the business of commercial and
retail banking in Belmont, Harrison, Tuscarawas, Carroll, Athens,
Hocking, and Fairfield counties and the surrounding localities. The
Banks provide a broad range of banking and financial services, which
include accepting demand, savings and time deposits and granting
commercial, real estate and consumer loans. CITIZENS conducts its
business through its main office in Martins Ferry, Ohio and nine
branches located in Bridgeport, Colerain, Dellroy, Dover, Jewett,
New Philadelphia, St. Clairsville, Sherrodsville, and Strasburg,
Ohio. CITIZENS offers full service brokerage service with securities
provided through UVEST(R) member NASD/SIPC. COMMUNITY conducts its
business through its seven offices in Amesville, Glouster,
Lancaster, and Nelsonsville, Ohio.
The markets in which the Banks' operate continue to be highly
competitive. CITIZENS competes for loans and deposits with other
retail commercial banks, savings and loan associations, finance
companies, credit unions and other types of financial institutions
within the Mid-Ohio valley geographic area along the eastern border
of Ohio, extending into the northern panhandle of West Virginia and
the Tuscarawas and Carroll County geographic areas of northeastern
Ohio. COMMUNITY also encounters similar competition for loans and
deposits throughout the Athens, Hocking, and Fairfield County
geographic areas of central and southeastern Ohio.
On November 12, 1999, the Graham-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 ("GLB
Act") was enacted, which is intended to modernize the financial
services industry. The GLB Act sweeps away large parts of a
regulatory framework that had its origins in the Depression Era of
the 1930s. Effective March 11, 2000, new opportunities became
available for banks, other depository institutions, insurance
companies and securities firms to enter into combinations that
permit a single financial service organization to offer customers a
more complete array of financial products and services. The GLB Act
provides a new regulatory framework for regulation through the
financial holding company, which will have as its umbrella regulator
the Federal Reserve Board. The functional regulation of the
financial holding company's separately regulated subsidiaries will
be conducted by their primary functional regulator. The GLB Act
makes satisfactory or above Community Reinvestment Act compliance
for insured depository institutions and their financial holding
companies necessary in order for them to engage in new financial
activities. The GLB Act provides a federal right to privacy of
non-public personal information of individual customers. The Company
and Banks are also subject to certain state laws that deal with the
use and distribution of non-public personal information.
The Company's two subsidiary banks are subject to regulation by the
Ohio Division of Financial Institutions ("ODFI") and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The regulations and
restrictions affecting the Banks
pertain to, among other things, allowable loans, guidelines for
allowance for loan losses, accountability for fair and accurate
disclosures to customers and regulatory agencies, permissible
investments and limitations of risk and regulation of capital
requirements for safe and sound operation of the financial
institution.
The Banks have no single customer or related group of customers
whose banking activities, whether through deposits or lending, would
have a material impact on the continued earnings capabilities if
those activities were removed.

II INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
A Securities available for sale at year-end 2002 increased $18,825,000, or 16.5%
over 2001, while securities held to maturity increased $2,547,000, or 24.5%. In
our planning process, Management's projection for 2002 was for a steady to
slightly rising interest rate environment. For the first half of 2002,
Management maintained an average of $13.8 million in fed funds sold. As the
economy continued to weaken, and threat of war surfaced, Management's, posture
on interest rates for the remainder of 2002 and heading into 2003 changed from
one that interest rates may rise to a position that rates will go basically
unchanged for the next twelve months. Therefore, by December 31, 2002,
Management invested the Company's excess liquidity in investment securities and
in loans. During 2002 the Company recognized gains of $320,485 on the sale of
investment securities. Management's strategy in 2002, took into consideration
the relative volatility in the bond market. At times during the year Management
realized there were opportunities to sell certain bonds in the portfolio when
overall interest rates were depressed. Security gains are non recurring income
and depending on future interest rate scenarios, the gains on the sale of
investment securities may negatively impact the yield on the investment
portfolio in future periods, and also negatively impact the Company's net
interest margin

The additional amount of interest income that would have been
recorded on nonaccrual loans, had they been current, totaled
$43,047 for the year-ended December 31, 2002.
Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is
doubtful, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are
past due over 90 days. Payments received on such loans are
reported as principal reductions.
A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is
not expected. Impairment is evaluated in total for
smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential
mortgage, consumer, and credit card loans, and on an
individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired,
a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is
reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash
flows using the loan's existing rate or at the fair value of
collateral if repayment is expected solely from the
collateral.
1. POTENTIAL PROBLEM LOANS
The Company had no potential problem loans as of December 31,
2002 which have not been disclosed in Table C 1., 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 the present loan repayment terms
and which may result in disclosure of such loans into one of
the problem loan categories.

ITEM 12 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission require the
disclosure of any related party transactions with members of the
Compensation Committee. During the past year, certain directors and
officers, including members of the Compensation Committee, and one or more
of their associates may have been customers of and had business
transactions with one or more of the bank subsidiaries of United Bancorp,
Inc. All loans included in such transactions were made in the ordinary
course of business and on substantially the same terms, including interest
rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable
transactions with other persons, and did not involve more than normal risk
of collectability or present other unfavorable features. It is expected
that similar transactions will occur in the future. In addition, The
Citizens Savings Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation,
pursuant to the terms of a lease entered into on April 1, 1998, paid
Riesbeck Food Markets, Inc. $25,128 in 2002, and over the five-year term
of the lease, payments will total $130,000 as lease payments for space
used in an in-store banking location at St. Clairsville, Ohio. Mr.
Riesbeck, Chairman of the Compensation Committee, is an officer, director
and shareholder of Riesbeck Food Markets, Inc. Management believes the
lease between Riesbeck Food Markets, Inc. and the Corporation was made on
an arms-length basis. Management employed a third party consulting firm
that specializes in grocery store banking facilities to establish the
terms of the lease.
ITEM 13 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report, an
evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the
participation of United Bancorp's management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act
Rules13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, effective to ensure that
information required to be disclosed, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission
rules and forms. Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that there
were no significant changes in United Bancorp's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect its internal control,
including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies
and material weaknesses.
