United Bancorp, Inc. (Company) is a multi-bank holding company
headquartered in Martins Ferry, Ohio. The Company has two

(c) NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
The Company is a multi-bank holding company as defined under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act").
The BHC 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 Company's Banks are located in northeastern and eastern Ohio
and are engaged in the business of commercial and retail banking
in Belmont, Jefferson, Tuscarawas and Carroll 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 three branches
located in Bridgeport, Colerain and St. Clairsville, Ohio.
CITIZENS-STATE conducts its business through its main office in
Strasburg, Ohio and its four branches located in Dover, New
Philadelphia, Sherrodsville and Dellroy, Ohio.
The banking markets in which the Company's subsidiaries 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.

ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
(c) NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
The Company's two subsidiary banks are both subject to regulation
by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions 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.
The Company itself, as a shell holding company, has no
compensated employees, CITIZENS has 56 full time employees, with
18 of these serving in a management capacity and 22 part time
employees. CITIZENS-STATE has 22 full time employees, with

ITEM 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
III LOAN PORTFOLIO (CONTINUED)
1. Interest income is not reported when full loan
repayment is in doubt, typically when payments are past due over
90 days. Payments received on such loans are reported as
principal reductions.
Management analyzes commercial and commercial real estate loans
on an individual basis and classifies a loan as impaired when an
analysis of the borrower's operating results and financial
condition indicates that underlying cash flows are not adequate
to meet its debt service requirements. Often this is
associated with a delay or shortfall in payments of 90 days or
more, or when the internal grading system indicates a doubtful
classification. Loan impairment is evaluated in total for
smaller-balance loans of similar nature. Such loans include
residential first mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family
residences, residential construction loans and consumer
automobile, boat and home equity loans. The carrying values of
impaired loans are periodically adjusted to reflect cash
payments, revised estimates of future cash flows and increases in
the present value of expected cash flows due to the passage of
time. Cash payments representing interest income are reported as
such. Other cash payments are reported as reductions in carrying
value, while increases or decreases due to changes in future
payments and due to the passage of time are reported as part of
the provision for loan losses.
2. POTENTIAL PROBLEM LOANS
The Company had no potential problem loans as of December 31,
1997 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.
