FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2005

Explanatory Note

This Amendment to Exchange Bancshares, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 includes restated financial statements as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, and for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. This restatement relates to our application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109. “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement 109”).

The principal application of Statement 109 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements relates to the accounting for the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. As a result of an updated review and analysis of the requirements of Statement 109 and the consideration of various factors, including the Company’s recent losses and decreases in loans, deposits and net interest income, the Company has restated the consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, and for the year ended December 31, 2004 to reflect an increase in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $35,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, $117,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 and $196,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004.

This application of Statement 109 results in the following changes in reported net loss for the periods presented in this report:

an increase of $35,000 in the net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2005;

an increase of $117,000 in the net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2004.

This application of Statement 109 also results in changes to comprehensive income and the consolidated statements of cash flows and balance sheets.

The following tables summarize the effect of the restatement on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004:

The restatement had no impact on cash flow from operations and as shown in Note 5, the Bank continues to be classified as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

This Report, as amended, covers the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and was originally filed on May 16, 2005. This Report has been amended to restate certain financial statements and related financial results only and does not reflect events after the filing of the original report and does not modify or update disclosures as originally filed, except as required to reflect the effect of the restatement. Contemporaneously with the filing of this Report, we have also filed an amended Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended December 31, 2004.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Exchange Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 1992 in the State of Ohio as a one-bank holding company for its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Exchange Bank (the “Bank”). The Company, through its subsidiary, operates in one industry segment, the commercial banking industry.

The Bank, an Ohio chartered bank organized in 1906, provides financial services through its five branches located in Luckey, Ohio, and nearby communities. These communities are the source of substantially all deposit and loan activities. The majority of the Bank’s income is derived from commercial and retail lending activities and investments in securities. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business and consumer assets and real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of business. Real estate loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2005, and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. The Annual Report for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2004, contains consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures, which should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or any future interim period.

Selected accounting policies followed by the Company are presented below.

USE OF ESTIMATES IN PREPARING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant area involving the use of management’s estimates and assumptions which are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are the determination of the allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses, as well as the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The Company recently received a comment letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding its Form 10-KSB for 2004, as more fully described in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

LOANS

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are stated at their outstanding principal amount, adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses and any deferred loan fees or costs on originated loans. Interest is accrued based upon the daily outstanding principal balance. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan.

Interest income is not reported when full repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due over 90 days. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to income. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

PER SHARE DATA

Net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each year.

NOTE 2. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION COMMENT LETTER

<R>

Subsequent to the Company filing its Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company received a comment letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) which included questions relating to the accounting and reporting of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. As a result of such comments, the Company performed an updated review and analysis of the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, as they relate to the accounting for net operating loss carryforwards and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. As a result of such analysis and the consideration of various factors, including the Company’s recent losses and decreases in loans, deposits and net interest income, the Company has restated the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 consolidated financial statements to reflect an increase in the valuation allowance for defe rred tax assets of $35,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $117,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. In addition, the December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements were restated, as filed on Form 10-KSB/A.

</R>

NOTE 3. DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

<R>

On April 13, 2005, the Company announced that it has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Rurban Financial Corp. (“Rurban”), an Ohio corporation located in Defiance, Ohio. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company will be merged with and into Rurban, with Rurban being the surviving corporation of such merger. According to the terms of the Merger Agreement, one-half of the Company’s shares will be exchanged for cash at the rate of $22.00 per share and the other half of the shares will be exchanged for Rurban shares at the exchange rate of 1.555 Rurban shares for each Company share, all subject to adjustments, including without limitation a downward adjustment should the Company’s shareholders’ equity, as defined, fall below $8.1 million at the last day of the month preceding the closing date. Based on the closing price of Rurban shares of $14.22 on April 12, 2005, t he aggregate purchase price of the merger transaction would be approximately $12.9 million. The Merger Agreement is subject to shareholder and regulatory approval and is expected to be completed during the second half of 2005.

The Company and the Bank have entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with Rurban whereby management of Rurban will provide various services to the Company and the Bank for a fee of $3,500 per week, plus out-of-pocket expenses.

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

At March 31, 2005, the Company had commitments to originate or fund loans totaling $8,590,000, and no commitments to purchase or sell loans.

In the normal course of business, the Company and Bank may be involved in various legal actions, but in the opinion of management and its legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

<R>

The Company has entered into “change of control” agreements with four officers. The agreements provide for the payment of a specified multiple of each employee’s annual salary upon certain specified events taking place, such as the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement described in Note 3. The maximum amount of compensation due to these employees is approximately $679,000. Since payment of such amount is contingent upon the occurrence of specified events, which have not and may not occur, no accrual for such payment has been reflected in the March 31, 2005 financial statements.

An amendment to the change of control agreements was authorized and approved by the Board of Directors on April 12, 2005. The agreement was amended to reflect changes in the federal tax laws.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Balance Sheet

<R>

At March 31, 2005, the consolidated assets of the Company totaled $87,162,000, a decrease of $3,557,000 or 3.9% from $90,719,000 at December 31, 2004. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $3,216,000 in securities available-for-sale and $1,991,000 in loans, partially offset by increases of $1,057,000 in cash and due from banks and $568,000 in federal funds sold. Also, during the three months ended March 31, 2005, deposits decreased $3,251,000 to $78,756,000 from $82,007,000 at December 31, 2004 and shareholders’ equity decreased $261,000 to $8,037,000 at March 31, 2005. The ratio of capital to total assets was 9.2% at March 31, 2005 compared to 9.1% at December 31, 2004.

</R>

The increase in federal funds sold was primarily due to the net impact of the re-allocation of funds from securities available-for-sale and loans and an outflow of deposits during the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Securities decreased $3,216,000 from $22,944,000 at December 31, 2004, to $19,728,000 at March 31, 2005. The decrease was primarily due to sales of $1,000,000 in U.S. treasury securities and $850,000 in U.S. government agency securities, and the maturity of $1,000,000 in corporate securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the yield on the securities portfolio was 2.86% compared to 3.12% for the same three-month period in 2004. The decline in yield was due to the sale or maturity of higher yielding securities.

<R>

Loans decreased $1,991,000 or 3.2% to $60,283,000 at March 31, 2005, compared to $62,274,000 at December 31, 2004. The decrease was due to decreases in all loan categories except municipal loans, which remained level. The majority of the decrease was a result of increased competition from other financial institutions, payoffs and a more conservative approach in evaluating credit quality and underwriting standards. </R>

At March 31, 2005, the allowance for loan losses was $1,132,000 or 1.88% of total loans, and 96.1% of total non-performing loans, compared to the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2004, of $1,106,000 or 1.78% of total loans and 118.4% of total non-performing loans. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover credit loss inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2005.

Total deposits decreased $3,251,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2005, primarily due to decreases of $3,285,000 in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts and $1,629,000 in time deposits, partially offset by an increase of $1,570,000 in noninterest-bearing demand deposit accounts. The decrease in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts was due to the loss of one large public fund account of approximately $4,000,000. The decrease in time deposits was primarily due to competitive pricing of other local institutions. Due to the relatively low loan demand in the current market, coupled with the Bank’s liquidity position, the Bank’s asset/liability strategy includes maintaining or lowering its cost of funds, including time deposits.

<R>

At March 31, 2005, shareholders’ equity was $8,037,000 or 9.2% of total assets compared to $8,298,000 or 9.1% of total assets at December 31, 2004. The decrease in shareholders’ equity was due to a net loss of $112,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, and an increase of $149,000 in unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities, net of related income taxes.

</R>

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing assets are defined as loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis, renegotiated troubled debt, accruing loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments, and other real estate obtained through loan foreclosure. The aggregate amounts of non-performing assets and selected ratios on the dates indicated are presented in the following table.

	March 31, 2005	December 31, 2004	March 31, 2004

Non-accrual loans	$ 979	$ 892	$ 836
Restructured loans	-	-	369
Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest	199	42	370
Total non-performing loans	1,178	934	1,575

Other real estate owned	-	-	95
Total non-performing assets	$1,178 =====	$ 934 =====	$1,670 =====

Non-performing loans to total loans	1.95%	1.50%	2.39%

Non-performing assets to total loans plus other real estate owned	1.95%	1.50%	2.53%

The increase in non-performing loans for the three month period ended March 31, 2005, resulted from increases of $157,000 in loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest and $87,000 in non-accrual loans.

To identify and manage the risks of lending, reviews of the loan portfolio are made on a continuous basis to identify problem loans. Management has both internal and external loan review procedures that provide for analysis of problem loans. Other factors considered in the analysis of the loan portfolio include general economic conditions, credit quality trends and regulatory examination findings. Internally identified “Watch Loans” are graded for asset quality by either the senior loan officer and/or the internal/external loan review staff. The results of the grading process in conjunction with independent collateral evaluations are used by management and the Board ofDirectors in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses account on a quarterly basis. The entire allowance for loan losses is available to absorb any particular loan loss.

Capital Resources

<R>

The Federal Reserve Board has established risk-based capital requirements for bank holding companies and banks. The primary purpose of these requirements is to assess the risk in a financial institution’s balance sheet and off-balance sheet financial instruments in relation to adjusted capital. To be considered well-capitalized under prompt corrective action, the Bank is required to maintain a minimum total qualifying capital of at least 10% and Tier I (core) capital of at least 6%. Tier I capital includes common equity, non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, and minority interest less goodwill and other disallowed intangibles. Tier II (supplementary) capital includes subordinated debt, intermediate-term preferred stock, the allowance for loan losses and preferred stock not qualifying for Tier I capital. At March 31, 2005, the Bank’s risk-based capital ratio for Tier I and Total capital was 14.4% and 15.7%, respecti vely. A detailed summary of the capital amounts and selected ratios is provided in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. </R>

Liquidity and Market Risk

Exchange Bancshares, Inc. is a holding company and does not conduct operations. Its primary source of liquidity is dividends from the Bank. Generally, subject to certain minimum capital requirements, the Bank may declare a dividend without regulatory approval unless the total dividends in a calendar year exceed the total of the Bank’s net profits for the year combined with its retained profits of the two preceding years. At March 31, 2005, neither the Company nor the Bank may pay a dividend without the approval of regulators.

The Bank manages liquidity and market risk through its Asset / Liability Committee (“ALCO”). The ALCO Committee assesses interest rate risk by monitoring current economic conditions and ensuring that the Bank has funds available to satisfy the normal loan and deposit needs of its customers while taking advantage of investment opportunities as they arise in order to maintain consistent growth and earnings. The Bank maintains a stable core deposit base and adequate liquidity through the use of federal funds sold and investment securities. The Bank also has several additional sources available for both short-term and long-term funding needs. These include, but are not restricted to, advances from the FHLB, federal funds through correspondent banks and borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 and 2004

<R>

For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company had a net loss of $112,000 or $0.19 per share compared to a net loss of $339,000 or $0.58 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The reduction of the net loss was due to decreases of $283,000 in the provision for loan losses and $12,000 in non-interest expenses, offset by a decrease of $68,000 in net interest income. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the annualized return on average equity (ROE) and return on average assets (ROA) were (5.33)% and (0.51)%, respectively, compared to (14.91)% and (1.35)% for the same three-month period in 2004. </R>

Net Interest Income

The Company’s earnings are significantly dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets less interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is affected by the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates received or paid by the Bank can be significantly influenced by a number of factors, such as governmental monetary policy, local economic conditions and competing financial service companies. Average interest-earning assets decreased 13.5% from the first quarter last year while average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 18.6%. The Company’s net interest yield for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was 4.22%, an increase of 30 basis points (100 basis points equals 1.00%) from 3.92% for the same period last year. The increase in net interest yield was primarily due to the decrease in rates of interest-bearing liabilities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the yield on interest-earning assets was 5.55% compared to 5.54% for the same period in 2004 and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2005 was 1.66% compared to 1.90% for the same period last year. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $1,128,000, a decrease of $180,000 compared to the same period for 2004. The decrease in interest income was due to lower average balances of interest-earning assets. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $271,000, a decrease of $112,000 compared to the same period for 2004. The decrease in interest expense was due to lower average balances of interest-bearing liabilities and a 24 basis point decrease in cost of funds. The net effect of the decreases in interest income and interest expense decreased net intere st income $68,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the same period for 2004.

Provision for Loan Losses

Management has established a methodology for evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Under this methodology, allocations are assigned to credits based upon specific allocations, historical loan loss ratios and

concentration of credit ratios. Other factors affecting the evaluation include the overall size and composition of the loan portfolio, local and national economic conditions and delinquency trends. Management believes the methodology will maintain the allowance at an adequate level. Based on the calculated allowance for loan losses, the Company made a provision for loan losses of $99,000 for the first quarter of 2005 compared to $382,000 for the first quarter of 2004. Net loan charge-offs were $73,000 or 0.48% (annualized) of average loans for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to $317,000 or 1.87% (annualized) for the same period in 2004. The first quarter 2005 provision for loan losses reflects the decreases in net charge-offs and non-performing loans as compared with the first quarter of 2004, as well as consideration of the overall risk in the loan portfolio. The large provision for the first quarter of 20 04 reflected the higher net charge-offs as well as other problem credits identified during the first quarter of 2004.

Non-Interest Income

Total non-interest income remained unchanged at $120,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $12,000 or 12.5%, offset by increases of $5,000 in secondary market loan fees, $1,000 in net gain on sale of securities and $6,000 in other income. Service charges decreased primarily due to decreases in service charges (from the introduction of free checking in 2004) and overdraft charges on checking accounts. Secondary market loan fees increased due to higher volumes of residential real estate loans being sold through the secondary mortgage market and the Bank hiring a mortgage loan originator.

Non-Interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses decreased $12,000 or 1.2% to $990,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $1,002,000 for the same period in 2004. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $22,000 or 4.3% in salaries, wages and employee benefits, $14,000 or 9.5% in occupancy of premises, $5,000 or 11.4% in bank, ATM and credit card charges, $5,000 or 21.7% in telephone expense and $21,000 or 29.2% in other expenses, partially offset by increases of $19,000 or 48.7% in audit and other professional fees and $37,000 in advertising. The Company’s Board of Directors in an effort to improve operating results have decided to again waive their fees for 2005 as was the case for 2004. The decrease in salaries, wages and employee benefits was primarily due to staffing changes within the Bank. The decrease in occupancy of premises is due to lower maintenance and repair costs. The decrease in other expenses was primarily due to a loss o n the sale of a residential property from other real estate owned during the first quarter of 2004. Audit and other professional fees increased due to increases in external audit fees and consulting fees. The increase in advertising was due to a new marketing campaign provided by an outside firm that started in the fourth quarter of 2004 and continued during the first quarter of 2005.

Income Taxes

<R>

The Company did not provide for any federal income tax credit for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 due to its net operating loss carryforward position. See Note 2 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statement for additional details.
