IBT BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. For further information, refer
to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Corporation's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2003.

NOTE 2 COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

The net income per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares
outstanding as adjusted for the 10% stock dividend paid February 19, 2004, were
4,856,051 and 4,796,990 for the nine month periods ending September 30, 2004 and
2003, respectively. The Corporation has no common stock equivalents and,
accordingly, presents only basic earnings per share.

NOTE 3 RECLASSIFICATION OF LOANS

Various loan category amounts as of December 31, 2003 have been reclassified for
consistency with the September 30, 2004 consolidated balance sheet presentation
as follows (Dollars in Thousands):



December 31, 2003
As As
Loan Category Reclassified Originally Reported
- ------------- ------------ -------------------

Agricultural $ 50,548 $ 50,548
Commercial 141,312 149,931
Real estate mortgage 176,828 157,598
Installment 53,171 63,782
-------- --------
$421,859 $421,859
======== ========


The reclassifications have no effect on total loans or any other financial
statement measure as of December 31, 2003 or for the year then ended.

NOTE 4 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In 2003, the Emerging Issues Task force (EITF) released Issue No. 03-1, The
Meaning of Other - Than-Temporary Impairment and It's Applications to Certain
Investments, which provides guidance for reporting equity securities whose fair
value is not readily determinable (that is,

8


equity securities that are outside the scope of FASB Statement No. 115) if those
securities are reported at cost. Issue No. 03-1 refers to those equity
securities as cost method investments. Issue No. 03-1 describes the three steps
a financial institution should take to assess whether a cost method investment
is impaired and, if it is, whether a loss should be recognized. The recognition
and measurement requirements of Issue No. 03-1 are effective for the third
quarter ended September 30, 2004. The Corporation believes the impact on the
carrying value of its investments in implementing Issue No. 03-1 was not
significant.

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

The following is management's discussion and analysis of the major factors that
influenced IBT Bancorp's financial performance. This analysis should be read in
conjunction with the Corporation's 2003 annual report and with the unaudited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, as set forth on pages 3
through 8 of this report.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The Corporation's significant accounting policies
are set forth in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the
Corporation's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2003. Of these
significant accounting policies, the Corporation considers its policies
regarding the allowance for loan losses and carrying values of servicing assets
to be its most critical accounting policies.

The allowance for loan losses requires management's most subjective and complex
judgment. Changes in economic conditions can have a significant impact on the
allowance for loan losses and therefore the provision for loan losses and
results of operations. The Corporation has developed appropriate policies and
procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses,
recognizing that this process requires a number of assumptions and estimates
with respect to its loan portfolio. The Corporation's assessments may be
impacted in future periods by changes in economic conditions, the impact of
regulatory examinations, and the discovery of information with respect to
borrowers which is not known to management at the time of the issuance of the
consolidated financial statements. For additional discussion concerning the
Corporation's allowance for loan losses and related matters, see Provision for
Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses in the Corporation's 2003 Annual
Report and herein.

Servicing assets are recognized when loans are sold with servicing retained.
Mortgage servicing rights (MSR's) are assets which are amortized in proportion
to and over the period of estimated future net servicing income. Servicing
assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as
compared to amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights by
predominate characteristics, such as interest rates and terms. Fair value is
determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when
available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions.
Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual
stratum, to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount for
the stratum.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2004 AND 2003

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income equaled $4.98 million for the nine month period ended September
30, 2004, verses $5.98 million in 2003. Return on average assets, which measures
the ability of the Corporation to profitably and efficiently employ its
resources, was 0.98% for the first nine months of 2004 and 1.21% in 2003. Return
on average equity, which indicates how effectively the Corporation is able to
generate earnings on shareholder invested capital, equaled 9.48% through
September 30, 2004 versus 12.56% for the same period in 2003.

IBT BANCORP, INC.

VOLUME AND RATE VARIANCE ANALYSIS

(Dollars in Thousands)

The following table sets forth the effect of volume and rate changes on interest
income and expense for the periods indicated. For the purpose of this table,
changes in interest due to volume and rate were determined as follows:

Volume Variance - change in volume multiplied by the previous year's rate.

Rate Variance - change in the fully taxable equivalent (FTE) rate
multiplied by the prior year's volume.

The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to volume
and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar
amounts of the change in each.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income equals interest income less interest expense and is the
primary source of income for IBT Bancorp. Interest income includes loan fees of
$854 million in the first nine months of 2004 versus $1.65 million for the same
period in 2003. For analytical purposes, net interest income is adjusted to a
"taxable equivalent" basis by adding the income tax savings from interest on
tax-exempt loans and securities, thus making year-to-year comparisons more
meaningful.

As shown in Tables number 1 and 2, when comparing the nine month period ending
September 30, 2004 to the same period in 2003, fully taxable equivalent (FTE)
net interest income decreased $284,000 or 1.5%. An increase of 3.2% in average
interest earning assets provided $1.8 million of FTE interest income. The
majority of this increase was funded by a 2.0% increase in interest bearing
deposits and borrowed funds, resulting in an increase in interest expense of
$88,000. Overall, changes in volume resulted in $1.7 million of additional FTE
interest income. The average FTE interest rate earned on assets decreased by
0.66%, decreasing FTE interest income by $3.9 million and the average rate paid
on deposits and other borrowings decreased by 0.50%, decreasing interest expense
by $1.9 million. The change in interest rates earned and paid decreased FTE net
interest income by $2.0 million.

The Corporation's FTE net interest yield as a percentage of average earning
assets equaled 3.96% during the first nine months of 2004 versus 4.15% in 2003.
Average loans outstanding increased from 66.9% of average earning assets in the
first nine months of 2003 to 70.4% in 2004. The 0.19% decrease in the FTE
interest margin was primarily a result of the average rate earned on earning
assets rising slower than the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The viability of any financial institution is ultimately determined by its
management of credit risk. Net loans outstanding represent 66.25% of the
Corporation's total assets and is the Corporation's single largest concentration
of risk. The allowance for loan losses is management's estimation of potential
future losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. Factors used to evaluate
the loan portfolio, and thus to determine the current charge to expense, include
recent loan loss history, financial condition of borrowers, amount of
nonperforming and impaired loans, overall economic conditions, and other
factors.

Comparing the year to date period of September 30, 2004 to September 30, 2003,
the provision for loan losses was decreased by $182,000 to $585,000, due to
declines in net charge offs and nonperforming loans. Year to date, the
Corporation had net charge-offs of $115,000 verses to $327,000 in 2003. Loans
classified as nonperforming were 0.80% of loans as of September 30, 2004 versus
0.85% for September 30, 2003. The Corporation's peer group, which includes 255
holding companies with assets between $500 million and $1.0 billion, had
nonperforming loans to total loans ratio of 0.63% as of June 30, 2004. As of
September 30, 2004 the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans
equaled 1.50%. In management's opinion, the allowance for loan losses is
adequate as of September 30, 2004.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income consists of trust fees, deposit service charges, fees for
other financial services, gains on the sale of mortgage loans sold, title
insurance revenue, and gains and losses on investment securities available for
sale. There was a $2.6 million decrease in fees earned from these sources during
the nine months of 2004 when compared to the same period in 2003. The majority
of the decrease in noninterest income is related to a significant decrease in
mortgage activity which slowed substantially during 2004 when compared to the
first nine months of 2003 causing a decrease in mortgage related fee income.
Significant individual account changes during this period include a $605,000
decrease in title insurance revenue and related services, a $1.6 million
decrease in gains on the sale of mortgage loans, and a $750,000 decrease in
residential mortgage servicing income offset by a $284,000 increase in overdraft
charges.

The Corporation has established a policy that all 30 year amortized fixed rate
mortgage loans will be sold. The calculation of gains on the sale of mortgages
excludes at least 25 basis points allocated to the value of servicing rights on
these loans. Included in other operating income is a $391,000 gain from the sale
of $48 million in mortgages during the first nine months of 2004 versus a $2.0
million gain on the sale of $192 million in mortgages for the same period in
2003.

Included in other assets is $10.3 million in cash value of corporate owned life
insurance policies. The increase in cash value of these policies of $317,000 and
$350,000 during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003
respectively is recorded as other income. These policies earned an average rate
of 4.13% and, due to their preferential tax treatment, have a taxable equivalent
rate of 6.26%. These policies are placed with four different insurance companies
with an S & P rating of AA+ or better.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense decreased $1.2 million or 6.8% during the first nine months
of 2004 when compared to 2003. The largest component of noninterest expense is
compensation expense, which decreased $65,000. While there were normal merit and
promotional salary increases, the net decrease is related to the reduction in
compensation related to the decline in mortgage loan activity.

Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses decreased $180,000 or 5.8% in
2004. The majority of this decrease is related to depreciation due to the
write-off of disposed and/or obsolete assets in 2003. Other expenses decreased
by $967,000 or 20.6%. The decrease is primarily related to a $1 million decrease
in charitable donations to IBT Foundation (see "Financial Instruments with Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements"). Due to the overall decline in income, the
Corporation did not make contributions to the IBT Foundation in the first nine
months of 2004.

NET INTEREST INCOME

When comparing the third quarter of 2004 to 2003, net FTE interest income
decreased $105,000. An increase of 2.1% in average interest earning assets
provided $457,000 of FTE interest income. During the third quarter of 2004, the
average FTE interest rate earned on assets decreased by 0.53% and the average
rate paid on deposits and borrowed funds decreased by 0.39%. The changes in
interest rates earned and paid resulted in a $567,000 decrease in net FTE
interest income. The Corporation's FTE net interest yield as a percentage of
average earning assets decreased 0.15% to 4% when comparing the third quarter of
2004 to the same period in 2003. The primary factor for the decrease was the
average rate earned on earning assets rising slower than the average rate paid
on interest bearing liabilities.

The following table sets forth the effect of volume and rate changes on interest
income and expenses for the periods indicated. For the purpose of this table,
changes in interest due to volume and rate were determined as follows:

Volume Variance - change in volume multiplied by the previous year's rate.
Rate Variance - change in the fully taxable equivalent (FTE) rate
multiplied by the prior year's volume.

The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to volume
and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar
amounts of the change in each.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The amount provided for loan losses in the third quarter of 2004 was $120,000
versus $222,000 in 2003. During the third quarter of 2004, the Corporation had
net charge-offs of $19,000 versus $233,000 during the same period of 2003. The
allowance for loan losses as a percent of loans was 1.50% as of September 30,
2004 a 0.06% increase since September 30, 2003.

18


NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income earned in the third quarter of 2004, when compared to the
same period in 2003, decreased $828,000 or 28.6%. The most significant changes
consisted of a $370,000 decrease in the gain on sale of mortgage loans, a
decrease of $247,000 in title and abstract revenue, and a $217,000 decrease in
residential mortgage servicing income, all due to a significant decline in
residential mortgage loan activity in 2004.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense decreased $307,000 or 5.3% during the third quarter of 2004
when compared to 2003. Noninterest expense includes compensation expense,
occupancy, and other operating expenses. The largest component of noninterest
expense is compensation, which decreased $239,000 or 6.8%. While there were
normal merit and promotional salary increases, the net decrease is related to
the reduction in compensation related to the decline in mortgage loan activity.

Furniture and equipment expenses decreased $248,000 or 29.0% in the third
quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The decrease is related
to depreciation due to the write-off of disposed and/or obsolete assets in the
third quarter of 2003.

ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Since December 31, 2003, total assets decreased $1.8 million to $662 million. As
of September 30, 2004, total loans increased $23.6 million, cash and demand
deposits due from banks decreased $7.9 million, federal funds sold decreased
$5.3 million, investment securities decreased $12.0 million, and other assets
increased $3.5 million. Deposits during this period decreased $10.7 million,
borrowed funds increased $4.9 million and shareholders' equity increased $3.2
million.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity management is designed to have adequate resources available to meet
depositor and borrower discretionary demands for funds. Liquidity is also
required to fund expanding operations, investment opportunities, and the payment
of cash dividends. The primary sources of the Corporation's liquidity are cash,
cash equivalents, and available-for-sale investment securities.

As of September 30, 2004, cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total
assets equaled 2.7%, versus 4.7% as of December 31, 2003. During the first nine
months of 2004, $11.1 million in net cash was provided from operations, while
$6.5 million was used in financing activities and investing activities used
$17.9 million. The accumulated effect of the Corporation's operating, investing,
and financing activities was a $13.2 million decrease in cash and cash
equivalents during the first nine months of 2004.

In addition to cash and cash equivalents, investment securities available for
sale are another source of liquidity. Securities available for sale equaled $159
million as of September 30, 2004 and $170 million as of December 31, 2003. In
addition to these primary sources of liquidity, the

19


Corporation has the ability to borrow in the federal funds market and at both
the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Corporation's
liquidity is considered adequate by the management of the Corporation.

CAPITAL

The capital of the Corporation consists solely of common stock, retained
earnings, and accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income; and increased
approximately $3.2 million since December 31, 2003. Accumulated other
comprehensive loss increased $1.1 million due to an increase in unrealized
depreciation on available-for-sale securities during 2004.

There are no significant capital regulatory constraints placed on the
Corporation's capital. The Federal Reserve Board's current recommended minimum
tier 1 and tier 2 average assets requirement is 6.0%. The Corporation's tier 1
and tier 2 capital to assets, which consists of shareholders' equity plus the
allowance for loan losses, less unamortized acquisition intangible, was 11.18%
at September 30, 2004.

The Federal Reserve Board has established a minimum risk based capital standard.
Under this standard, a framework has been established that assigns risk weights
to each category of on- and off-balance sheet items to arrive at risk adjusted
total assets. Regulatory capital is divided by the risk adjusted assets with the
resulting ratio compared to the minimum standard to determine whether a bank has
adequate capital. The minimum standard is 8%, of which at least 4% must consist
of equity capital net of goodwill. The following table sets forth the
percentages required under the Risk Based Capital guidelines and the
Corporation's ratios as of September 30, 2004:

PERCENTAGE OF CAPITAL TO RISK ADJUSTED ASSETS

losses. The percentage for the secondary capital under the required column
is the maximum allowed from all sources.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Corporation is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk.
These instruments are entered into in the normal course of business to meet the
financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments, which include
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, involve, to varying
degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts
recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts
of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation has in a
particular class of financial instruments.

20


The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of
those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in deciding to
make these commitments as it does for extending loans to customers.

Commitments to extend credit, which totaled $63.8 million at September 30, 2004,
are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any
condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have variable
interest rates, fixed expiration dates, or other termination clauses and may
require the payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation
to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees
are primarily issued to support private borrowing arrangements, including
commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. At September 30,
2004, the Corporation had a total of $928,000 in outstanding standby letters of
credit.

Generally, these commitments to extend credit and letters of credit mature
within one year. The credit risk involved in these transactions is essentially
the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Corporation
evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount
of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation upon the
extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower.
Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property,
plant and equipment, and other income producing commercial properties.

The Corporation sponsors the IBT Foundation (the "Foundation"), which is a
nonprofit entity formed for the purpose of distributing charitable donations to
recipient organizations generally located in the communities serviced by
Isabella Bank and Trust. The Corporation periodically makes charitable
contributions in the form of cash transfers to the Foundation. The Foundation is
administered by members of the Corporation's Board of Directors. The assets and
transactions of the Foundation are not included in the consolidated financial
statements of IBT Bancorp, Inc. The assets of the Foundation as of September 30,
2004 approximated $1.9 million.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Corporation intends such
forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for
forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of
1995, and is including this statement for purposes of these safe harbor
provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions
and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Corporation, are
generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "project," or similar expressions. The Corporation's
ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is
inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the
operations and future prospects of the

21


Corporation and the subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, changes in:
interest rates, general economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes,
monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the
U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality or composition of the
loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows,
competition, demand for financial services in the Corporation's market area, and
accounting principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties
should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements. Further information concerning the
Corporation and its business, including additional factors that could materially
affect the Corporation's financial results, is included in the Corporation's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Corporation's primary market risks are interest rate risk and, to a lesser
extent, liquidity risk. The Corporation has no foreign exchange risk, holds
limited loans outstanding to oil and gas concerns, and holds no trading account
assets, nor does it utilize interest rate swaps or derivatives in the management
of its interest rate risk. The Corporation does have a significant amount of
loans extended to borrowers in agricultural production. Their cash flow and
their ability to service their debt is largely dependent on the commodity prices
for corn, soybeans, sugar beets, milk, beef and a variety of dry beans. The
Corporation mitigates these risks by using conservative price and production
yields when calculating a borrower's available cash flow to service their debt.

Interest rate risk ("IRR") is the exposure to the Corporation's net interest
income, its primary source of income, to changes in interest rates. IRR results
from the difference in the maturity or repricing frequency of a financial
institution's interest earning assets and its interest bearing liabilities.
Interest rate risk is the fundamental method in which financial institutions
earn income and create shareholder value. Excessive exposure to interest rate
risk could pose a significant risk to the Corporation's earnings and capital.

The Federal Reserve, the Corporation's primary Federal regulator, has adopted a
policy requiring the Board of Directors and senior management to effectively
manage the various risks that can have a material impact on the safety and
soundness of the Corporation. The risks include credit, interest rate,
liquidity, operational, and reputational. The Corporation has policies,
procedures and internal controls for measuring and managing these risks.
Specifically, the IRR policy and procedures include defining acceptable types
and terms of investments and funding sources, liquidity requirements, limits on
investments in long term assets, limiting the mismatch in repricing opportunity
of assets and liabilities, and the frequency of measuring and reporting to the
Board of Directors.

The Corporation uses several techniques to manage interest rate risk. The first
method is gap analysis. Gap analysis measures the cash flows and/or the earliest
repricing of the Corporation's interest bearing assets and liabilities. This
analysis is useful for measuring trends in the repricing characteristics of the
balance sheet. Significant assumptions are required in this process because of
the imbedded repricing options contained in assets and liabilities. A
substantial portion of the Corporation's assets are invested in loans and
mortgage backed securities. These assets have imbedded options that allow the
borrower to repay the balance prior to maturity without penalty.

22


The amount of prepayments is dependent upon many factors, including the interest
rate of a given loan in comparison to the current interest rates, for
residential mortgages the level of sales of used homes, and the overall
availability of credit in the market place. Generally, a decrease in interest
rates will result in an increase in the Corporation's cash flows from these
assets. Investment securities, other than those that are callable, do not have
any significant imbedded options. Saving and checking deposits may generally be
withdrawn on request without prior notice. The timing of cash flow from these
deposits is estimated based on historical experience. Time deposits have
penalties which discourage early withdrawals.

The second technique used in the management of interest rate risk is to combine
the projected cash flows and repricing characteristics generated by the gap
analysis and the interest rates associated with those cash flows and projected
future interest income. By changing the amount and timing of the cash flows and
the repricing interest rates of those cash flows, the Corporation can project
the effect of changing interest rates on its interest income.

The following table provides information about the Corporation's assets and
liabilities that are sensitive to changes in interest rates as of September 30,
2004. The Corporation has no interest rate swaps, futures contracts, or other
derivative financial options. The principal amounts of assets and time deposits
maturing were calculated based on the contractual maturity dates. Savings and
NOW accounts are based on management's estimate of their future cash flows.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures - The term "disclosure
controls and procedures" is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). This term refers to the
controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. An
evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the
Corporation's management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief
Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Corporation's disclosure
controls and procedures as of September 30, 2004. Based on that evaluation, the
Corporation's management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the
Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September
30, 2004.

(b)Changes in Internal Controls - The Corporation also conducted an evaluation
of internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes
occurred during the period ended September 30, 2004, that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation's
internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, there has
been no such change during the period that ended September 30, 2004.
