PART 1 ITEM 1: BUSINESS First Banking Center, Inc. First Banking Center, Inc. (the "Corporation") is a one-bank holding company incorporated as a business corporation under the laws of the State of Wisconsin on August 24, 1981. In April 1982, the Corporation became the sole owner of First Bank and Trust Company, Burlington, Wisconsin, a Wisconsin state-banking corporation. On September 1, 1984, the Corporation acquired 100% of the capital stock of the Bank of Albany, Albany, Wisconsin a Wisconsin state-banking corporation. On April 6, 1998, First Banking Center-Albany was merged with First Banking Center-Burlington. On January 1, 1985, the name of the Corporation was changed from the First Community Bank Group, Inc. to the First Banking Center, Inc., and the name of the subsidiary companies were changed to First Banking Center - Burlington and First Banking Center - Albany, respectively. As of May 11, 1998 First Banking Center-Burlington changed its name to First Banking Center (the "Bank"). The Corporation's primary business activity is the ownership and control of First Banking Center. The Corporation's operations department also provides administrative and operational services for the Bank. The bank has two wholly owned subsidiaries, FBC Financial Services, Corp., a brokerage and financial services subsidiary, and FBC-Burlington, Inc., an investment subsidiary located in Nevada. First Banking Center The Bank was organized in 1920 and is a full service commercial bank located in the City of Burlington, Wisconsin. The Bank has branch offices located in Albany, Burlington, Genoa City, Kenosha, Lake Geneva, Lyons, Monroe, Pell Lake, Union Grove, Walworth, and Wind Lake, Wisconsin. The Bank offers a wide range of services, which includes Loans, Personal Banking, Trust and Investment Services, and Insurance and Annuity Products. Lending The lending area provides a wide variety of credit services to commercial and individual consumers. Consumer lending consists primarily of residential mortgages, residential construction loans, installment loans, home equity loans, and student loans. Commercial lending consists of commercial property financing, equipment and inventory financing, and real estate development, as well as the financing of agricultural production, farm equipment, and farmland. Commercial lending usually involves a greater degree of credit risk than consumer lending. This increased risk requires higher collateral value to loan amount than may be necessary on some consumer loans. The collateral value required on a commercial loan is determined by the degree of risk associated with that particular loan. Personal Banking This area provides a wide variety of services to customers such as savings plans, certificates of deposit, checking accounts, individual retirement accounts, and other specialized services. Trust and Investments The Trust Department provides a full range of services to individuals, corporations and charitable organizations. It provides such specific services as investment advisory, custodial, executor, trustee and employee benefit plans. Insurance and Investment Products This area provides a complete line of life insurance as well as long-term health care, fixed and variable rate annuities, mutual funds, securities services, and discount brokerage. COMPETITION The financial services industry is highly competitive. The Bank competes with other commercial banks and with other financial institutions including savings and loan associations, finance companies, mortgage banking companies, insurance companies, brokerage firms, and credit unions. SUPERVISION AND REGULATION The Company is a bank holding company subject to the supervision of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. As a bank holding company, the Company is required to file an annual report and such additional information with the Board of Governors as the Board of Governors may require pursuant to the Act. The Board of Governors may also make examinations of the Company and its subsidiary. The Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Board of Governors before it may acquire substantially all the assets of any bank, or ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if, after such acquisitions, it would own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank. Under existing federal and state laws, the Board of Governors may approve the acquisition by the Company of the voting shares of, or substantially all the assets of, any bank located in states specified in the Wisconsin Interstate Banking Bill which became effective January 1, 1987. In addition, a bank holding company is generally prohibited from itself engaging in, or acquiring direct or indirect control of voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities. One of the principal exceptions to this prohibition is for activities found by the Board of Governors, by order or regulation to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Some of the activities that the Board of Governors has determined by regulation to be closely related to banking are making or servicing loans, full payout property leasing, investment advisory services, acting as a fiduciary, providing data processing services and promoting community welfare projects. A subsidiary bank of a bank holding company is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of credit to the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries, on investments in the stock or other securities thereof, and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. Further, under the Bank Holding Company Act and regulations of the Board of Governors, a bank holding company and its subsidiary is prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property or furnishing of services. The Company is also subject to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and has reporting obligation to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The business of banking is highly regulated and there are various requirements and restrictions in the laws of the United States and the State of Wisconsin affecting the Company's subsidiary bank and its operations, including the requirement to maintain reserves against deposits, restrictions on the nature and amount of loans which may be made by the bank and restrictions relating to investment, branching and other activities of the bank. The Company is supervised and examined by the Federal Reserve Board. The Company's subsidiary bank, as a state chartered institution, is subject to the supervision of, and is regularly examined by, Wisconsin state authorities. The Bank is also a members of the Federal Reserve Bank and as such is subject to regulation and examination by that agency. The Company, under Federal Reserve Board policy, is expected to act as a source of financial strength to the subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support the subsidiary. GOVERNMENTAL POLICIES The earnings of the Company's subsidiary bank as a lender and depositor of money are affected by legislative changes and by the policies of the various regulatory authorities including the State of Wisconsin, the United States Government, foreign governments and international agencies. The effect of this regulation upon the future business and earnings of the Company cannot be predicted. Such policies include, among others, statutory maximum lending rates, domestic monetary policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, United States fiscal policies and international currency regulations and monetary policies. Governmental and Reserve Board policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to do so in the future. Management is not able to anticipate and evaluate the future impact of such policies and practices on the growth and profitability of the Company or its subsidiary bank. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999(the Act) made significant changes in the laws governing financial institutions, including changes which expand the permissible range of activities for bank holding companies and their affiliates (including non-banking financial activities); permit affiliations between banks, securities firms and insurance companies; make substantial changes in the regulatory structure for financial institutions; prohibit new unitary savings and loan holding companies; make changes to the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977; and enact substantial new financial privacy rules. The new financial privacy rules may impose some additional regulatory burden on the Bank. It is too early to make specific predictions about how the Act will otherwise impact the Corporation and its subsidiary. MATERIAL DEPOSIT AND LOANS No single borrower accounted for a material portion of the loans in the subsidiary bank. No single depositor accounted for a material portion of deposits in the subsidiary bank. EMPLOYEES The Company and its staff share a commitment to equal opportunity. All personnel decisions are made without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, handicap, or veteran status. At January 31, 2000, the Company and its subsidiary had 213 full and part-time employees. MISCELLANEOUS The business of the Company is not seasonal. To the best of management's knowledge, there is no anticipated material effect upon the Company's capital expenditures, earnings, and competitive position by reason of any laws regulating or protecting the environment. The Company has no material patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions. No material amounts have been spent on research activities and no employees are engaged full time in research activities. NOTE: Subsections of Item I, to which no response has been made are inapplicable to the business of the Company.

This discussion focuses on the significant factors that affected the Companys earnings in 1999, with comparisons to 1998. As of December 31, 1999, First Banking Center (the Bank) was the only direct subsidiary of the Company and its operations contributed nearly all of the revenue for the year. The Company provides various support functions for the Bank and receives payment from the Bank for these services. These inter-company payments are eliminated for the purpose of these consolidated financial statements. The Bank has two wholly owned subsidiaries, FBC Financial Services, Corp., a brokerage and financial services subsidiary, and FBC Burlington, Inc., an investment subsidiary located in Nevada. Overview As of December 31, 1999, total Company assets were $392.1 million increasing 6.2% from $369.1 million as of December 31, 1998. Total income for 1999 was $4.2 million or $2.80 per share, increasing 23.5% from $3.4 million or $2.28 per share in 1998. The significant items resulting in the above-mentioned results are discussed below. Balance sheet analysis Loans As of December 31, 1999, loans outstanding were $298.7 million for an increase of $34.0 million or 12.8% from December 31, 1998. During 1999 Residential Real Estate loans increased $14.7 million, and Commercial Real Estate loans increased $15.8 million or 15.2% and 23.4% respectively. At December 31, 1999, Construction and Land Development loans were at $37.8 million or 12.7% of total loans, Residential Real Estate loans were at $110.8 million or 37.1% of total loans, and Commercial loans were at $28.4 million or 9.5% of total loans, and Commercial Real Estate loans were at $83.6 million or 28.0% of total loans. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for possible loan losses was $3.6 million or 1.21% of gross loans on December 31, 1999, compared with $3.4 million or 1.29% of gross loans on December 31, 1998. Net charge-offs for 1999 were $170 thousand or .057% of gross loans, compared to net charge-offs of $41 thousand or .015% of gross loans for 1998. As of December 31, 1999, loans on non-accrual status totaled $1.3 million or .44% of gross loans compared to $1.5 million or .57% of gross loans on December 31, 1998. The non-accrual loans consisted primarily of $963 thousand of residential real estate loans and $182 thousand of commercial loans. On December 31, 1999, the ratio of non-accrual loans to the allowance for loan losses was 36.1% compared to 44.1% on December 31, 1998. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio. In accordance with FASB Statements 5 and 114, the allowance is provided for losses that have been incurred as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is based on past events and current economic conditions, and does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. Management reviews a calculation of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is impaired when it is probable the creditor will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest payments due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the bank to make additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectibility based on information available to them at the time of their examination. During 1999 $330 thousand was charged to current earnings and added to the allowance for loan losses. Investments securities - Available for Sale The securities available-for-sale portfolio decreased $10.3 million or 15.8% during 1999. The majority of the decrease came from the maturities of Commercial Paper and Agency Issued Remics and was used to fund loans. Deposits and Borrowed Funds As of December 31, 1999, total deposits were $306.1 million, which is an increase of $23.4 million or 8.3% from December 31, 1998. Money Market and Savings Deposits increased $17.5 million or 17.9% to $115.3 million. Demand Deposits increased $1.6 million or 3.2% to $51.6 million. Securities sold under agreement to repurchase and Certificates of Deposits decreased $7.6 million or 26.4%. Federal Home Loan Borrowings increased $5.6 million or 26.0% since December 31, 1998. Capital resources During 1999, the Company's stockholders' equity increased $1.5 million or 4.7%. Net income of $4.2 million was the primary reasons for the increase in equity. The company purchased $561 thousand and reissued $219 thousand of treasury stock, during 1999. Unrealized gain/loss on available for sale securities decreased $1.3 million to a negative $683 thousand. Cash dividends paid in 1999 were $876 thousand or $.59 per share. In December 1990, the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based guidelines became effective. Under these guidelines capital is measured against the Company's subsidiary banks risk-weighted assets. The Company's tier 1 capital (common stockholders' equity less goodwill) to risk-weighted assets was 10.7% at December 31, 1999, well above the 4% minimum required. Total capital to risk-adjusted assets was 11.9%, also well above the 8% minimum requirement. The leverage ratio was at 8.4% compared to the 4% minimum requirement. According to FDIC capital guidelines, the Company is considered to be "well capitalized." Asset/liability management The principal function of asset/liability management is to manage the balance sheet mix, maturities, repricing characteristics and pricing components to provide an adequate and stable net interest margin with an acceptable level of risk over time and through interest rate cycles. Interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are those that are subject to repricing within a specific relevant time horizon. The Bank measures interest-sensitive assets and liabilities, and their relationship with each other at terms of immediate, quarterly intervals up to 1 year, and over 1 year. Changes in net interest income, other than volume related, arise when interest rates on assets reprice in a time frame or interest rate environment that is different from the repricing period for liabilities. Changes in net interest income also arise from changes in the mix of interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Banks strategy with respect to asset/liability management is to maximize net interest income while limiting its exposure to a potential downward movement. Strategy is implemented by the Bank's management, which takes action based upon its analysis of the Bank's present positioning, its desired future positioning, economic forecasts, and its goals. It is the Banks desire to maintain a cumulative GAP of positive or negative 15% of rate sensitive assets at the 1 year time frame. The current percentage is negative 4% which compares to negative 1% as of December 31, 1998. Liquidity The liquidity position of the Company is managed to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet customers' needs for loans and deposit withdrawals. Liquidity to meet demand is provided by maintaining marketable investment securities, Federal Funds Sold, as well as, maintaining a full line of competitively priced deposit and short-term borrowing products. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank system, which provides the Company with an additional source of liquidity. The Bank is authorized to borrow up to 60% of the book value of its 1-4 family real estate mortgages secured by a security agreement pledging the Banks 1-4 family real estate mortgages with a carrying value of $110.8 million. During 1999 the Companys loan to deposit ratio increased from 92% to 96%. This increase was due to an increase in loans of $34.0 million or 12.8% while deposits only increased $23.4 million or 8.3%. The additional funding for the increase in loans came from increased borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the sales and maturities of investment securities. While liquidity within the banking industry continues to tighten management is unaware of any recommendations by regulatory authorities, known trends, events or uncertainties that will have or that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company's liquidity, capital resources, or operations. Results of operations Net Interest Income Net interest income is the difference between interest income and fees on loans and interest expense, and is the largest contributing factor to net income for the Company. All discussions of rate are on a tax-equivalent basis, which accounts for income earned on securities that are not fully subject to federal taxes. Net interest income for 1999 was $15.1 million, increasing 13.5% over the 1998 level of $13.3 million, increasing 13.6% over the 1997 level of $11.7 million. Net interest income as a percentage of average earning assets was 4.55% in 1999 versus 4.57% in 1998 versus 4.40% in 1997. Total interest income increased $2.2 million from 1998 to 1999 and $2.6 million from 1997 to 1998. Average earning assets increased from $282.2 million in 1997 to $308.8 million in 1998 to $348.8 million in 1999 or 15.14%, 9.43% and 12.92%, respectively. The yields on interest earning asset increased from 8.37% to 8.49% from 1997 to 1998, and decreased from 8.49% to 8.16% from 1998 to 1999. The increase in interest income in 1999 was due primarily to an increase in interest on loans. Interest on loans increased to $23.0 million or 11.1% from $20.7 million or 10.7% from 1997 of $17.9. The increase in loan income was the result of a $38.6 million or 15.8% increase in 1999, an increase of $37.1 million or 17.9% in 1998 and an increase of $31.2 million or 18.0% in 1997 in average balances outstanding. An increase in residential loan activity primarily generated the fees. This increase of loan activity was due to low home mortgage interest rates. Total interest expense increased $459 thousand in 1999, $1.0 million in 1998 and $1.4 million in 1997. This increase was due to an increase in average interest bearing deposits of $20.8 million or 9.46% in 1999, an increase of $11.0 million or 5.26% in 1998 and $39.7 million or 17.00% in 1997. An increase in average Federal Home Loan Borrowings of $7.0 million or 42.9% in 1999 and $6.3 million or 63.5% in 1998, also caused an increase for 1999 and 1998. The cost of all interest bearing liabilities remained consistant at 4.69% in 1997 and 1998 and decreased to 4.31% in 1999. Provision for loan losses During 1999 and 1998, $330 thousand was charged to current earnings and added to the allowance for loan losses. In 1997, $230 thousand was charged to earnings and added to the allowance for loan losses. Non-interest income Non-interest income during 1999 increased $299 thousand or 11.8% from 1998, during 1998 it increased $374 thousand or 17.3% from 1997. This increase is due primarily to increased income from service charges on deposit accounts, which increased $215 thousand or 21.3% in 1999, $100 thousand or 10.9% in 1998 and $178 thousand or 24.0% in 1997. Trust Department income which increased $28 thousand or 6.8% in 1999 and $73.0 thousand or 21.4% in 1998. Income from the Companys ATM and Visa network also caused the increase by $56 thousand in 1999, $102 thousand in 1998 and $203 thousand in 1997. Non-interest expense Non-interest expense increased from $9.6 million to $10.8 million to $11.6 million from 1997 to 1998 to 1999. An increase of 1.2 million or 12.3% and $811 thousand or 7.5%, respectively. Salaries and benefits increased $414 thousand or 6.9% in 1999, $688 thousand or 12.9% in 1998 and $1.0 million or 23.0% in 1997. Equipment expense increased $202 thousand or 17.6% in 1999, $60 thousand or 5.5% in 1998 and $209 thousand or 24.0% in 1997. Data processing services increased $142 thousand or 30.9% in 1999, $40 thousand or 9.6% in 1998 and $32 thousand or 8.2% in 1997. Occupancy expense increased $73 thousand in 1999 and 1998 and $37 thousand in 1997. Stationary and office supplies decreased $28 thousand or 9.4% in 1999, increased $77 thousand or 31.3% in 1998 and decreased $15 thousand or 5.8% in 1997. And finally, income taxes increased $473 thousand or 34.1% for 1999 and $272 thousand or 24.4% for 1998. They decreased $203 thousand or 15.4% for 1997.

FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A. CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements of First Banking Center, Inc. include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, First Banking Center. First Banking Center includes the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries, FBC-Burlington, Inc. and FBC Financial Services Corp. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and conform to general practices within the banking industry. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. B. NATURE OF BANKING ACTIVITIES The consolidated income of First Banking Center, Inc. is principally from the income of its wholly owned subsidiary. The subsidiary Bank grants agribusiness, commercial, residential and consumer loans, accepts deposits and provides trust services to customers primarily in southeastern and south central Wisconsin. The subsidiary Bank is subject to competition from other financial institutions and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally the Company and the subsidiary Bank are subject to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergo periodic examination by those regulatory agencies. C. USE OF ESTIMATES 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 the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, and the valuation of foreclosed real estate and deferred tax assets. D. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the balance sheet caption "cash and due from banks." The subsidiary Bank maintains amounts due from banks which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The subsidiary Bank has not experienced any losses in such accounts. E. AVAILABLE FOR SALE SECURITIES Securities classified as available for sale are those debt securities that the subsidiary Bank intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the subsidiary Bank's assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital consideration, and other similar factors. Securities classified as available for sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses are reported as increases or decreases in comprehensive income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are included in earnings. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- F. LOANS Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. The accrual of interest income on impaired loans is discontinued when, in the opinion of management, there is reasonable doubt as to the borrower's ability to meet payment of interest or principal when they become due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Cash collections on impaired loans are credited to the loan receivable balance and no interest income is recognized on those loans until the principal balance is current. Accrual of interest is generally resumed when the customer is current on all principal and interest payments and has been paying on a timely basis for a period of time. G. MORTGAGE LOANS HELD FOR SALE Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income. All sales are made without recourse. H. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable credit losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio. In accordance with FASB Statements 5 and 114, the allowance is provided for losses that have been incurred as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is based on past events and current economic conditions, and does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is impaired when it is probable the creditor will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest payments due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the bank to make additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectibility based on information available to them at the time of their examination. I. OFFICE BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT Depreciable assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Provisions for depreciation are computed on straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 15 to 50 years for buildings and 2 to 12 years for equipment. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- J. PROFIT-SHARING PLAN The Company has established a trusteed contributory 401(k) profit-sharing plan for qualified employees. The Company's policy is to fund contributions as accrued. K. OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED Other real estate owned, acquired through partial or total satisfaction of loans is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell. At the date of acquisition losses are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in loss on foreclosed real estate. L. INCOME TAXES The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return and individual subsidiary state income tax returns. Accordingly, amounts equal to tax benefits of those companies having taxable federal losses or credits are reimbursed by the other companies that incur federal tax liabilities. Amounts provided for income tax expense are based on income reported for financial statement purposes and do not necessarily represent amounts currently payable under tax laws. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. The differences relate principally to the reserve for loan losses, nonaccrual loan income, deferred compensation, pension, fixed assets and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. M. OFF-BALANCE-SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS In the ordinary course of business the subsidiary Bank has entered into off-balance-sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, commitments under credit card arrangements, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received. N. TRUST ASSETS AND FEES Property held for customers in fiduciary or agency capacities is not included in the accompanying balance sheet, since such items are not assets of the Company. In accordance with established industry practice, income from trust fees is reported on the cash basis. Reporting of trust fees on an accrual basis would have no material effect on reported income. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- O. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. In the computation of diluted earnings per share, all dilutive stock options are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of each year and the proceeds are used to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at the average market price during the year. P. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. Statement No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments: Carrying Amounts Approximate Fair Values for the Following Instruments Cash and due from banks Federal funds sold Interest-bearing deposits in banks Available for sale securities Accrued interest receivable Variable rate loans that reprice frequently where no significant change in credit risk has occurred Demand deposits Variable rate money market accounts Variable rate certificates of deposit Accrued interest payable U.S. Treasury Note account Discounted Cash Flows Using interest rates currently being offered on instruments with similar terms and with similar credit quality: All loans except variable rate loans described above Fixed rate certificates of deposit Other borrowings FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) Quoted fees currently being charged for similar instruments Taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties' credit standing: Off-balance-sheet instruments Guarantees Letters of credit Lending commitments Since the majority of the Company's off-balance-sheet instruments consist of nonfee-producing, variable rate commitments, the Company had determined it does not have a distinguishable fair value. Q. RECLASSIFICATION Certain 1997 and 1998 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1999 presentation. The reclassifications have no effect on reported amounts of net income or equity. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 2 - CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's bank subsidiary is required to maintain vault cash and reserve balances with Federal Reserve Banks based upon a percentage of deposits. These requirements approximated $3,490,000 and $2,738,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC.

The average recorded amount of impaired loans during 1999 and 1998 was $1,875,000 and $1,454,000, respectively. There was no allowance for loan losses related to these loans at December 31, 1999 and 1998. Interest income on impaired loans of $31,000, $20,000 and $14,000 was recognized for cash payments received in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

These loans were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons and did not involve more than normal risks of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.

The indebtedness is evidenced by a master contract dated September 14, 1992. FHLB provides both fixed and floating rate advances. Floating rates are tied to short-term market rates of interest, such as Federal funds and Treasury Bill rates. Fixed rate advances are priced in reference to market rates of interest at the time of the advance, namely the rates that FHLB pays to borrowers at various maturities. Various advances were obtained with total outstanding balances of $27,168,000 and $21,543,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998 respectively, with applicable interest rates ranging from 4.70% to 6.88%.

Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan been determined based upon the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plan consistent with the method prescribed by FASB Statement No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below: 1999 1998 1997 (Dollars in thousands except per share data) Net income - as reported $ 4,162 $ 3,388 $ 2,884 Pro forma $ 4,136 $ 3,365 $ 2,875 Basic earnings per share - as reported $ 2.80 $ 2.28 $ 1.95 Pro forma $ 2.78 $ 2.26 $ 1.95 Diluted earnings per share - as reported $ 2.78 $ 2.27 $ 1.94 Pro forma $ 2.77 $ 2.25 $ 1.94 The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively: dividend yield of 1.7%, 1.7% and 1.8%; expected volatility of 5.3%, 5.3% and 5.4%, blended risk-free interest rates of 5.9%, 5.0% and 5.3%; and expected lives of 10 years, 5 years and 5 years, respectively.

The agreements provide for the payment of specified amounts upon the employee's retirement or death which is being accrued over the anticipated remaining period of employment. Expenses recognized for future benefits under these agreements totaled $59,000, $59,000 and $151,000 during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Although not part of the agreement, the Company purchased paid-up life insurance on the officers which could provide funding for the payment of benefits. Included in other assets is $1,518,000 and $1,451,000 of related cash surrender value as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 16 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 16 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company is 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, financial guarantees and standby letters of credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company'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 notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and issuing letters of credit as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the contract or notional amount of the Company's exposure to off-balance-sheet risk as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 is as follows: 1999 1998 (Dollars in thousands) Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk: Commitments to extend credit $49,006 $42,304 Credit card commitments $ - $2,460 Standby letters of credit $4,869 $3,537 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. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require 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 to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. Credit card commitments are unsecured. The Company and the subsidiary Bank do not engage in the use of interest rate swaps, futures or option contracts as of December 31, 1999. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 17 - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Practically all of the subsidiary Bank's loans, commitments, and commercial and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the subsidiary Bank's market area. Although the subsidiary Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, the ability of their debtors to honor their contracts is dependent on the economic conditions of the counties surrounding the subsidiary Bank. The concentration of credit by type of loan is set forth in Note 4. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 18 - RETAINED EARNINGS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A source of income and funds of First Banking Center, Inc. are dividends from its subsidiary Bank. Dividends declared by the subsidiary Bank that exceed the retained net income for the most current year plus retained net income for the preceding two years must be approved by Federal and State regulatory agencies. Under this formula, dividends of approximately $6,283,000 may be paid without prior regulatory approval. Maintenance of adequate capital at the subsidiary Bank effectively restricts potential dividends to an amount less than $6,283,000. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 19 - REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the subsidiary Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's and subsidiary Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the subsidiary Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy requires the Company and the subsidiary Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table on the following page) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, that the Company and the subsidiary Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of December 31, 1999, the most recent notification from the regulatory agencies categorized the Company as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since these notifications that management believes have changed the institution's category. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC.

This allowed the Company to deliver services more efficiently by eliminating the duplicate costs associated with various management, administrative and support services. FIRST BANKING CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1999 and 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 21 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments are as follows: 1999 1998 Carrying Estimated Carrying Estimated Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value (Dollars in thousands) FINANCIAL ASSETS Cash and due from banks $ 19,123 $ 19,123 $ 18,013 $ 18,013 Federal funds sold $ 4,242 $ 4,242 $ 6,885 $ 6,885 Interest-bearing deposits in banks $ 40 $ 40 $ 66 $ 66 Securities $ 54,952 $ 54,952 $ 65,263 $ 65,263 Net loans $295,143 $ 292,847 $261,379 $ 260,821 Accrued interest receivable $ 2,815 $ 2,815 $ 2,453 $ 2,453 FINANCIAL LIABILITIES Deposits $306,144 $ 305,863 $282,799 $ 283,072 Repurchase agreements $ 21,131 $ 21,131 $ 28,750 $ 28,750 U.S. Treasury note account $ 100 $ 100 $ 100 $ 100 Other borrowings $ 27,768 $ 27,416 $ 22,143 $ 22,132 Accrued interest payable $ 1,290 $ 1,290 $ 1,183 $ 1,183 The estimated fair value of fee income on letters of credit at December 31, 1999 and 1998 is insignificant. Loan commitments on which the committed interest rate is less than the current market rate are also insignificant at December 31, 1999 and 1998. The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. As a result, fair values of the Company's financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to repay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company's overall interest rate risk.
