MBT FINANCIAL CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MBT
Financial Corp. (the "Corporation") and its subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust (the
"Bank"). The Bank includes the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries, MBT
Credit Company, Inc. and MB&T Financial Services, Inc. The Bank operates
twenty-one branches in Monroe County, Michigan and three branches in Wayne
County, Michigan. MBT Credit Company, Inc. operates a mortgage loan office in
Monroe County and a loan production office in Wayne County. The Bank's primary
source of revenue is from providing loans to customers, who are predominantly
small and middle-market businesses and middle-income individuals. The
Corporation's sole business segment is community banking.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Bank conform to practice within the
banking industry and are in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. Preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in
the near term are the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the
valuation of other real estate owned.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of Management, necessary for
fair statement of results for the interim periods.
The significant accounting policies are as follows:
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation
and its subsidiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform
to the current period presentation.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Accounting principles generally require that revenue, expenses, gains, and
losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and liabilities,
however, such as unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale,
are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet.
Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.
BUSINESS SEGMENTS
While the Corporation's chief decision makers monitor the revenue streams of
various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance
is evaluated on a company wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Corporation's
operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable
segment.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company applies the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," for all employee stock option grants and has elected
to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share amounts as if the
fair-value based method has been applied in measuring compensation costs.

The Company's as reported and pro forma information for the quarter and six
months ended June 30 were as follows:

Compensation expense in the pro forma disclosures is not indicative of future
amounts, as options vest over several years and additional grants are generally
made each year.
The weighted average fair value of options granted was $3.84 in 2004 and $3.04
in 2003. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used
for grants: expected option lives of seven years for both years; expected
volatility of 25.3% in 2004 and 23.9% in 2003; and risk-free interest rates of
3.8% in 2004 and 4.6% in 2003.

3. LOANS
The Bank grants commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans primarily to customers
in Monroe County, Michigan, southern Wayne County, Michigan, and surrounding
areas. Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion
of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent on the automotive,
manufacturing, and real estate development economic sectors.

Loans are placed in a nonaccrual status when, in the opinion of Management, the
collection of additional interest is doubtful. All loans internally classified
by Management as nonperforming are reviewed for impairment. Allowances for loans
determined to be impaired are included in the allowance for loan losses. All
cash received on nonaccrual loans is applied to the principal balance.
Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past
due, restructured loans, real estate that has been acquired in full or partial
satisfaction of loan obligations or upon foreclosure, and investment securities
that are 90 days or more past due on the interest or principal payments. The

Activity in the allowance for loan losses was as follows (000's omitted):
June 30, June 30,
2004 2003
-------- --------
Balance beginning of year $ 14,500 $ 12,400

Loans charged off (1,380) (812)
Recoveries 656 447
-------- --------
Balance end of period $ 14,976 $ 13,685
======== ========
For each period, the provision for loan losses in the income statement results
from the combination of an estimate by Management of loan losses that occurred
during the current period and the ongoing adjustment of prior estimates of
losses occurring in prior periods.
To serve as a basis for making this provision, the Bank maintains an extensive
credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors including: current
economic conditions affecting the Bank's customers, the payment performance of
individual loans and pools of homogeneous loans, portfolio seasoning, changes in
collateral values, and detailed reviews of specific loan relationships. For
loans deemed to be impaired due to an expectation that all contractual payments
will probably not be received, impairment is measured by comparing the Bank's
recorded investment in the loan to the present value of expected cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or the fair value of the
collateral, or the loan's observable market price.
The provision for loan losses increases the allowance for loan losses, a
valuation account which is netted against loans on the consolidated statements
of condition. As the specific customer and amount of a loan loss is confirmed by
gathering additional information, taking collateral in full or partial
settlement of the loan, bankruptcy of the borrower, etc., the loan is charged
off, reducing the allowance for loan losses. If, subsequent to a charge off, the
Bank is able to collect additional amounts from the customer or sell collateral
worth more than earlier estimated, a recovery is recorded.

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and
interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated
statements of condition.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.
The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for its other lending activities.

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written 18,558 19,381
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Most
commercial lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages or other
collateral, and generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination
clauses. Since the lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon, the
total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Credit card lines of credit have various established expiration dates, but are
fundable on demand. Home equity lines of credit are secured by real estate
mortgages, a majority of which have ten year expiration dates, but are fundable
on demand. The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case
basis. The amount of the collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank
upon extension of credit, is based on Management's credit evaluation of the
counterparty.
Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank
to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees
are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and
other business transactions.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements contained herein are not based on historical facts and are
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements which are based on various
assumptions (some of which are beyond the Corporation's control), may be
identified by reference to a future period or periods, or by the use of
forward-looking terminology, such as "may," "will," "believe," "expect,"
"estimate," "anticipate," "continue," or similar terms or variations on those
terms, or the negative of these terms. Actual results could differ materially
from those set forth in forward-looking statements, due to a variety of factors,
including, but not limited to, those related to the economic environment,
particularly in the market areas in which the company operates, competitive
products and pricing, fiscal and monetary policies of the U.S. Government,
changes in government regulations affecting financial institutions, including
regulatory fees and capital requirements, changes in prevailing interest rates,
acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses, credit risk management,
asset/liability management, the financial and securities markets and the
availability of and costs associated with sources of liquidity.
The Corporation does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation,
to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any
forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or
unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
During the first half of 2004, the Bank's gross loans increased $59.9 Million,
or 6.9%. During that same period, deposit and investment totals did not change
significantly. In order to fund the loan growth, the Bank increased its use of
federal funds borrowed by $12.5 million, increased its borrowings from the
Federal Home Loan Bank by $28.5 million, and entered into a repurchase agreement
secured by investment securities for $21.9 million.
The loan growth was consistent with our expectations, with the new loans
originating equally in the Monroe and Downriver market areas. The Bank expects
loans to continue to increase in the third quarter as the economic recovery and
our expansion into Wayne County continue, and as construction and land
development lines continue to be drawn upon. Management believes that the
quality of the loan portfolio is continuing to improve. Nonperforming assets
("NPAs") decreased 11.3% since year end as we continue to work out the existing
NPAs and improved lending practices have resulted in a reduction of the amount
of new NPAs being identified. Most of the bank's lending is secured by real
estate, which allows us to maintain a lower ratio of Allowance for Loan Losses
to NPAs and a low level of net charge offs. Although the charge offs related to
these loans are less, the process of collection can be lengthy. Significant
improvements in the lending staff, the collection staff, the underwriting
procedures, and the loan policy have also contributed to the reduction in NPAs,
as shown by a reduction in the amount of new additions to the NPA list and a
reduction in the delinquency rates for commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans.
Deposit growth was less than anticipated for a variety of reasons: the low
interest rates and improving equity markets have resulted in an increase in
disintermediation; Management decided to reduce interest expense by changing its
pricing philosophy from being the market leader for all products to pricing
competitively, but focusing on the products that matched our Asset/Liability
Management needs; and competitors have aggressively offered special rates to
attract new customers. We continue to monitor the local market and adjust our
products and pricing. Effective June 1, 2004, we began to offer free checking to
individuals and businesses, which contributed to the increase in the
non-interest bearing deposits amounts. Also in the second quarter, in order to
-14-
manage our interest rate risk, we obtained $16.9 million of brokered
certificates of deposit. The terms of these deposits range from three to five
years and the rates range from 3.75% to 4.50%. The weighted average maturity is
4.23 years and the weighted average cost is 4.23%. We may continue to utilize
brokered deposits to fund our loan growth and manage interest rate risk in the
third quarter, and we also expect traditional deposits to increase in the third
quarter.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- SECOND QUARTER 2004 VS. SECOND QUARTER 2003
A comparison of the income statements for the three months ended June 30, 2004
and 2003 shows a 0.6% increase in Net Interest Income. Interest income on loans
and investments decreased $0.8 million, or 3.8% and interest expense decreased
$0.9 million, or 12.0%. Although average loans outstanding increased $88.9
million, the average yield on those loans decreased from 6.52% to 5.85%. Average
investments decreased $64.6 million but the yield on investments increased from
4.35% to 4.51%. Market interest rates began to rise early in the year,
contributing to the improvement in the investment yield. The first increase in
managed interest rates in more than four years occurred on June 30, 2004, and
had no impact on our second quarter earnings. We expect additional increases in
managed rates in the second half of this year, which will lead to an improvement
in loan yields.
Average deposits decreased slightly from $1.036 billion in the second quarter of
2003 to $1.029 billion in the second quarter of 2004, while at the same time the
average cost of these deposits decreased from 1.61% to 1.34%. The result was a
decrease in Interest on Deposits of $0.7 million, or 17.2%. Average borrowed
funds increased from $240.1 million in the second quarter of 2003 to $283.0
million in the second quarter of 2004, while the average cost of these
borrowings decreased from 4.95% to 4.03%. This reduction in the cost of the
borrowed funds was due to the refinancing of some of our Federal Home Loan Bank
advances, obtaining additional FHLB advances at lower rates, and an increase in
the use of federal funds borrowed and other lower cost borrowings. The cost of
deposits increased slightly in the second quarter as customers began to shift
funds into higher yielding, longer term certificates of deposit. While our
maturing certificates should renew at lower rates, additional movement of
deposits from transaction accounts and short term certificates into long term
certificates, as well as rising market rates, is expected to cause our deposit
costs to increase in the third quarter. We may also experience a slight increase
in the cost of borrowed funds as we expect to borrow less federal funds and
because some of our FHLB borrowings have variable rates.
The Provision for Loan Losses decreased $225,000, or 27.3%. This level of
provision is expected to be sufficient to maintain an adequate allowance for
loan losses, barring greater than anticipated loan growth.
Non interest income decreased 4.4%. The table below summarizes the changes in
the components of non interest income (000s omitted) for the quarters ended:
June 30, June 30,
2004 2003 % Change
------- -------- --------
Trust Income $ 921 $ 820 12.3%
Deposit Account Service Charges 412 383 7.6%
Other Deposit Account Related Fees 960 921 4.2%
Origination Fees on Loans Sold 169 356 -52.5%
Gains on Securities Transactions 11 242 -95.5%
BOLI Earnings 379 329 15.2%
Other Income 509 465 9.5%
------- -------- --------
$ 3,361 $ 3,516 -4.4%
Trust Income improved due to improvements in the market values of trust accounts
and increases in the fees charged. The increase in Deposit Account Service
Charges was due to increased deposit
-15-
account activity and fees. The Bank began offering a free checking account
product in the second quarter of 2004, which is expected to result in smaller
increases in these fees. Origination Fees on Mortgage Loans Sold exceeded our
expectations for the second quarter of 2004, but were still well below the level
achieved during the historically low interest rate environment of the second
quarter of 2003. The low interest rates of last year and the need to sell
investments to fund loan growth also provided the opportunity for above normal
Gains on Securities Transactions in 2003. The income from Bank Owned Life
Insurance policies increased due to an additional investment in BOLI policies
during the second quarter of 2003.
Salaries and Employee Benefits increased $358,000, or 8.7%, due to annual salary
increases and higher health insurance costs. The number of full time equivalent
employees decreased slightly from 386 on June 30, 2003 to 384 on June 30, 2004.
Occupancy Expense increased $50,000, or 7.8%, primarily due to the Bank's
expansion into the southern Wayne County area. The Bank now operates two full
service branches and a loan and trust production office in Wayne County. As of
June 30, 2004, the Wyandotte branch, which opened at the end of the first
quarter of 2003, has $21.6 million in deposits, and the Trenton branch, which
opened in the third quarter of 2003, has $9.8 million in deposits. Other
Expenses increased $5,000, or 0.2%. These results were consistent with our
expectations for the quarter, and our efficiency ratio remains better than the
average for comparable banks.
As a result of the above activity, Income Before Provision for Income Taxes
decreased $261,000, or 3.3%. The Provision for Income Taxes decreased $128,000,
or 5.7%, and reflects an anticipated annual effective tax rate of 27.0%. Net
Income decreased $133,000, or 2.3% compared to the second quarter of 2003.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AND JUNE 30, 2003
A comparison of the income statements for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and
2003 shows a 2.9% increase in Net Interest Income. Interest income on loans and
investments decreased $1.8 million, or 4.5% and interest expense decreased $2.5
million, or 16.9%. Although average loans outstanding increased $87.5 million,
the average yield on those loans decreased from 6.62% to 5.89%. Average
investments decreased $71.8 million but the yield on investments increased from
4.28% to 4.40% as increasing market rates in 2004 led to an improvement in the
investment yield. Anticipated increases in managed rates in the second half of
this year are expected to result in an improvement in loan yields.
Average deposits decreased slightly from $1.034 billion in the first half of
2003 to $1.029 billion in the first half of 2004, while at the same time the
average cost of these deposits decreased from 1.66% to 1.30%. The result was a
decrease in Interest on Deposits of $1.8 million, or 21.6%. Average borrowed
funds increased from $234.7 million in the first half of 2003 to $267.7 million
in the first half of 2004, while the average cost of these borrowings decreased
from 5.30% to 4.15%. This reduction in the cost of the borrowed funds was due to
the refinancing of some of our Federal Home Loan Bank advances in the second and
third quarters of 2003, and lower costs on the additional borrowings, which
include FHLB advances, federal funds borrowed, and repurchase agreements. The
market for deposits is becoming increasingly competitive, and we do not expect
deposit costs to continue to decline in the second half of 2004.
It is Management's expectation that rising interest rates would be slightly
beneficial to the Bank's net interest income over the remainder of the year
while falling interest rates would not materially affect net interest income.
The Provision for Loan Losses decreased $450,000, or 27.3%. This level of
provision is expected to be sufficient to maintain an adequate allowance for
loan losses, barring greater than anticipated loan growth.
-16-
Non interest income decreased 2.0%. The table below summarizes the changes in
the components of non interest income (000s omitted) for the six months ended:
June 30, June 30,
2004 2003 % Change
-------- --------- ---------
Trust Income $ 1,735 $ 1,693 2.5%
Deposit Account Service Charges 822 760 8.2%
Other Deposit Account Related Fees 1,828 1,789 2.2%
Origination Fees on Loans Sold 329 632 -47.9%
Gains on Securities Transactions 118 414 -71.5%
BOLI Earnings 765 530 44.3%
Other Income 990 901 9.9%
-------- --------- ---------
$ 6,587 $ 6,719 -2.0%
Trust Income increased due to improvements in the market values of trust
accounts and increases in the fees charged. The Bank began offering a free
checking account product in June, 2004, which is expected to result in smaller
future increases in Deposit Account Service Charges. Origination Fees on
Mortgage Loans Sold decreased in 2004 as mortgage rates began to increase. The
income from Bank Owned Life Insurance policies increased due to an additional
investment in BOLI policies in the second quarter of 2003.
Salaries and Employee Benefits increased $624,000, or 7.5%, as salaries
increased 8.9% and health insurance and other benefits increased 5.7%. Occupancy
Expense increased $190,000, or 14.5%, primarily due to the Bank's expansion into
the southern Wayne County area. Other Expenses increased $114,000, or 2.2%.
These results were consistent with our expectations for the first half of 2004.
As a result of the above activity, Income Before Provision for Income Taxes
increased $108,000, or 0.7%. The Provision for Income Taxes decreased $102,000,
or 2.4%, and reflects an anticipated annual effective tax rate of 27.0%. Net
Income increased $210,000, or 1.9% compared to the first half of 2003.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
The Corporation has maintained sufficient liquidity to fund its loan growth and
allow for fluctuations in deposit levels. Internal sources of liquidity are
provided by the maturities of loans and securities as well as holdings of
securities Available for Sale. External sources of liquidity include a line of
credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, and the Federal funds
lines that have been established with correspondent banks.
Total stockholders' equity of the Corporation was $144.4 million at June 30,
2004 and $143.4 million at December 31, 2003. The ratio of equity to assets was
9.5% at June 30, 2004 and 9.8% at December 31, 2003. Federal bank regulatory
agencies have set capital adequacy standards for Total Risk Based Capital, Tier
1 Risk Based Capital, and Leverage Capital. These standards require banks to
maintain Leverage and Tier 1 ratios of at least 4% and a Total Capital ratio of
at least 8% to be adequately capitalized. The regulatory agencies consider a
bank to be well capitalized if its Total Risk Based Capital is at least 10% of
Risk Weighted Assets, Tier 1 Capital is at least 6% of Risk Weighted Assets, and
Leverage Capital Ratio is at least 5%.
The following table summarizes the capital ratios of the Bank:
Minimum to be Well
June 30, 2004 December 31, 2003 Capitalized
------------- ----------------- ------------------
Leverage Capital 10.0% 9.7% 5.0%
Tier 1 Risk Based Capital 13.9% 14.4% 6.0%
Total Risk Based Capital 15.2% 15.6% 10.0%
-17-
At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Bank was in compliance with the
capital guidelines and is considered "well-capitalized" under regulatory
standards.
Market risk for the Bank, as is typical for most banks, consists mainly of
interest rate risk and market price risk. The Bank's earnings and the economic
value of its equity are exposed to interest rate risk and market price risk, and
monitoring this risk is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Management
Committee (ALCO) of the Bank. The Bank's market risk is monitored monthly and it
has not changed significantly since year-end 2003.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Bank faces market risk to the extent that the fair values of its financial
instruments are affected by changes in interest rates. The Bank does not face
market risk due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices,
or equity prices. The asset and liability management process of the Bank seeks
to monitor and manage the amount of interest rate risk. This is accomplished by
analyzing the differences in repricing opportunities for assets and liabilities,
by simulating operating results under varying interest rate scenarios, and by
estimating the change in the net present value of the Bank's assets and
liabilities due to interest rate changes.
Each month, the Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO), which includes the senior
management of the Bank, estimates the effect of interest rate changes on the
projected net interest income of the Bank. The sensitivity of the Bank's net
interest income to changes in interest rates is measured by using a computer
based simulation model to estimate the impact on earnings of a gradual increase
or decrease of 100 basis points in the prime rate. The net interest income
projections are compared to a base case projection, which assumes no changes in
interest rates.
The Bank's ALCO has established limits in the acceptable amount of interest rate
risk, as measured by the change in the Bank's projected net interest income, in
its policy. Throughout the first six months of 2004, the estimated variability
of the net interest income was within the Bank's established policy limits.
The ALCO also monitors interest rate risk by estimating the effect of changes in
interest rates on the economic value of the Bank's equity each month. The actual
economic value of the Bank's equity is first determined by subtracting the fair
value of the Bank's liabilities from the fair value of the Bank's assets. The
fair values are determined in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards Number 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The
Bank estimates the interest rate risk by calculating the effect of market
interest rate shocks on the economic value of its equity. For this analysis, the
Bank assumes immediate parallel shifts of plus or minus 100 and 200 basis points
in interest rates. Currently, the minus 200 shift does not produce meaningful
results. The discount rates used to determine the present values of the loans
and deposits, as well as the prepayment rates for the loans, are based on
Management's expectations of the effect of the rate shock on the market for
loans and deposits.
The Bank's ALCO has established limits in the acceptable amount of interest rate
risk, as measured by the change in economic value of the Bank's equity, in its
policy. Throughout the first six months of 2004, the estimated variability of
the economic value of equity was within the Bank's established policy limits.
The Bank's interest rate risk, as measured by the net interest income and
economic value of equity simulations, has not changed significantly from
December 31, 2003.
-18-
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of
June 30, 2004, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation,
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2004,
in alerting them in a timely manner to material information relating to the
Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the
Company's periodic SEC filings.
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting
that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2004, that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
MBT Financial Corp. and its subsidiaries are not a party to, nor is any of their
property the subject of any material legal proceedings other than ordinary
routine litigation incidental to their respective businesses, nor are any such
proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities, other than as
described below.
On July 14, 2004, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (the "DEQ")
provided a letter directing Monroe Bank and Trust to take action including
remediation of property owned by the Bank located at 9023 Lewis Avenue, Monroe
County, Michigan. This property was purchased by the Bank in 2003 and is
currently being redeveloped into a Bank branch office. During construction of
the facility, three previously unknown underground storage tanks were discovered
on the property and removed in February of 2004. The Bank notified the DEQ in
February of this year indicating that some of the contents from these tanks had
been released into the soil. An initial assessment report was prepared and
submitted to the DEQ on May 6, 2004 by an environmental testing and consulting
firm engaged by the Registrant. Based on this report, the DEQ provided its July
14, 2004 letter, which requires the Bank to develop and implement a remedial
action plan for the property. Registrant's consulting firm is currently in the
process of completing its final assessment of the property and will assist the
Bank in developing its remedial action plan. This matter is in an early stage
and Registrant's management is not yet in a position to assess accurately the
extent of remediation costs or other expenses associated with the planned
remediation of the property.
