Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting and Consolidation

     The unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of
First   Mid-Illinois   Bancshares,   Inc.   ("Company")  and  its   wholly-owned
subsidiaries:  Mid-Illinois Data Services,  Inc. ("MIDS") and First Mid-Illinois
Bank & Trust, N.A. ("First Mid Bank") and its wholly-owned subsidiary First Mid-
Illinois  Insurance  Services,  Inc.  ("First Mid  Insurance").  All significant
inter-company  balances and transactions  have been eliminated in consolidation.
The financial  information  reflects all  adjustments  which,  in the opinion of
management,  are  necessary  to present a fair  statement  of the results of the
interim periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, and all such  adjustments are
of a normal recurring nature.  The results of the interim period ended September
30, 2001, are not  necessarily  indicative of the results  expected for the year
ending December 31, 2001.

     The  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  have been  prepared in
accordance  with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X
and do not include all of the  information  required  by  accounting  principles
generally  accepted  in the United  States of  America  for  complete  financial
statements and related footnote  disclosures.  These financial statements should
be read in  conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial  statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's 2000 Form 10-K.


Stock Split

     The Company's board of directors  authorized a three-for-two stock split in
the form of a 50% stock  dividend on its common  shares on  September  26, 2001.
This stock  dividend  will be payable on November 16, 2001, to holders of record
of the common  shares of the  Company at the close of  business  on October  26,
2001.  Accordingly,  information  with  respect  to shares  of common  stock and
earnings per share have been restated in all periods  presented to fully reflect
the stock split.


Accounting Changes

     In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (FASB)  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 133,  "Accounting for
Derivative   Instruments  and  Hedging   Activities"   ("SFAS  133").  SFAS  133
standardizes  the  accounting  for  derivative  instruments,  including  certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts. Under the standard, entities
are required to carry all  derivative  instruments  in the balance sheet at fair
value.  The accounting for the changes in fair value of a derivative  instrument
depends on whether it has been  designated  and  qualifies  as part of a hedging
relationship  and,  if so, on the reason for holding it. The gain or loss due to
changes in fair value is recognized in earnings or as other comprehensive income
in the statement of  stockholders'  equity,  depending on the type of instrument
and



                                       5

whether or not it is considered a hedge. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS 137,
"Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the
effective date of Statement No. 133." This statement defers the adoption of SFAS
133 to fiscal  quarters of fiscal years  beginning after June 15, 2000. The FASB
issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative  Instruments and Certain
Hedging  Activities  -- an  amendment of FASB  Statement  No. 133" in June 2000,
which addresses various  implementation issues relating to SFAS 133. Adoption of
the above  Statements on January 1, 2001, did not have a material  impact on the
Company's financial position, results of operation or liquidity.

     SFAS No. 140  "Accounting  for Transfers and Servicing of Financial  Assets
and  Extinguishment  of Liabilities"  ("SFAS 140"),  was issued by the Financial
Accounting  Standards  Board in  September  of 2000.  SFAS  140  supersedes  and
replaces  FASB SFAS 125,  "Accounting  for  Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and  Extinguishment  of  Liabilities".  Accordingly,  SFAS 140 is now the
authoritative  accounting  literature  for  transfers and servicing of financial
assets  and  extinguishment  of  liabilities.  SFAS  140 also  includes  several
additional  disclosure  requirements in the area of securitized financial assets
and collateral arrangements.  The provisions of SFAS 140 related to transfers of
financial  assets are applicable to all transfers of financial  assets occurring
after March 31, 2001. The collateral  recognition  and disclosure  provisions in
SFAS 140 were  effective  for fiscal years ending after  December 15, 2000.  The
Company's  adoption of SFAS 140 did not have a material  impact on the Company's
results of operations.

     On July 20,  2001,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 141,  "Business  Combinations"
("SFAS 141") and SFAS No. 142,  "Goodwill and Other  Intangible  Assets"  ("SFAS
142").  SFAS 141  requires all business  combinations  initiated  after June 30,
2001,  to be  accounted  for using the  purchase  method.  SFAS 142 replaces the
requirement to amortize  intangible  assets with  indefinite  lives and goodwill
with a requirement for an impairment  test. SFAS 142 also requires an evaluation
of intangible  assets and their useful lives and a transitional  impairment test
for goodwill and certain  intangible  assets.  After transition,  the impairment
tests will be performed annually.  Any transitional  impairment losses (goodwill
and intangible  assets with indefinite lives) or write-offs of negative goodwill
must be  accounted  for as the  cumulative  effect  of a  change  in  accounting
principle. SFAS 142 must be adopted in fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001,  as of the  beginning  of  the  year.  Management  is in  the  process  of
evaluating the effect this will have on the Company's financial statements.

Comprehensive Income

     The  Company's  comprehensive  income  for the three  month and nine  month
periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 is as follows:

Earnings Per Share

     A  three-for-two  common stock split was  distributed  in the form of a 50%
stock dividend for the  stockholders  of record at the close of the business day
of October 26, 2001.  Accordingly,  information with respect to shares of common
stock and  earnings  per share have been  restated in all periods  presented  to
fully  reflect the stock split.  Income for basic  earnings per share ("EPS") is
based on the weighted average number of common shares  outstanding.  Diluted EPS
is computed  using the  weighted  average  number of common  shares  outstanding
increased by the assumed  conversion  of the  Company's  stock  options,  unless
anti-dilutive. The components of basic and diluted earnings per common share for
the three month and nine month periods ended  September 30, 2001 and 2000 are as
follows:

Merger and Acquisition

     On April 20, 2001,  First Mid Bank  acquired all the  outstanding  stock of
American  Bank of Illinois  located in Highland,  Illinois,  for $3.7 million in
cash.  This  acquisition  added  approximately  $30.8 million to total deposits,
$24.9 million to loans,  $2 million to securities,  $1.7 million to premises and
equipment and $1.4 million to intangible  assets.  The acquisition was accounted
for using the purchase  method of  accounting  whereby the  acquired  assets and
liabilities  were  recorded  at fair  value as of the  acquisition  date and the
excess  cost over  fair  value of net  assets  was  recorded  as  goodwill.  The
consolidated  financial statements include the results of operations of American
Bank of Illinois since the acquisition date.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

     The largest  source of  operating  revenue for the Company is net  interest
income.  Net interest  income  represents the difference  between total interest
income  earned on earning  assets and total  interest  expense paid on interest-
bearing  liabilities.  The  amount of  interest  income is  dependent  upon many
factors,  including the volume and mix of earning  assets,  the general level of
interest rates and the dynamics of changes in interest rates.  The cost of funds
necessary to support  earning assets varies with the volume and mix of interest-
bearing liabilities and the rates paid to attract and retain such funds.

     For purposes of the following discussion and analysis,  the interest earned
on tax-exempt securities is adjusted to an amount comparable to interest subject
to income  taxes at 34%.  The  adjustment  is referred to as the  tax-equivalent
("TE") adjustment.  The Company's average balances,  interest income and expense
and rates earned or paid for major balance sheet categories are set forth in the
following table (dollars in thousands):

     On a tax equivalent  basis,  net interest income increased  $1,171,000,  or
7.0% to  $17,971,000  for  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  2001,  from
$16,800,000 for the same period in 2000. The increase in net interest income was
primarily due to a growth in interest  earning assets  including the acquisition
of American Bank of Illinois.

     For the nine months  ended  September  30,  2001,  average  earning  assets
increased by  $49,735,000,  or 8.9%,  and average  interest-bearing  liabilities
increased  $36,162,000,  or 7.4%,  compared  with average  balances for the same
period in 2000.

     Changes in average balances,  as a percent of average earnings assets,  are
shown below:
     o    average loans (as a percent of average earnings assets)  increased .1%
          to 72.6% for the nine months ended  September 30, 2001, from 72.5% for
          the same period in 2000.
     o    average securities (as a percent of average earnings assets) decreased
          2.7% to 24.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, from 27.1%
          for the same period in 2000.

     Explanations  for the three months ended  September 30, 2001 as compared to
the same period in 2000:

o    Trust revenues  increased $54,000 or 13.5% to $455,000 from $401,000.  This
     increase  was  partially  due to an increase in trust fees.  Trust  assets,
     reported at market value,  were $288 million at September 30, 2001 compared
     to $307 million at September 30, 2000.

o    Revenues from  brokerage and annuity  sales  decreased  $15,000 or 15.8% to
     $80,000 from $95,000.  This was primarily due to an overall downturn in the
     stock market.

o    Fees from  service  charges  increased  $165,000 or 26.3% to $793,000  from
     $628,000.  This  increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of
     transaction accounts with the acquisition of American Bank of Illinois,  as
     well as a fee increase in the 4th quarter 2000.

o    Sales  of  investment  securities  resulted  in a net gain of  $14,000,  as
     compared  to a net loss of $3,000 for the same  quarter  in 2000.  This net
     gain resulted from calls of several available-for-sale securities.

o    Mortgage  banking  income  increased  $198,000 or 215.2% to  $290,000  from
     $92,000.  This  increase  was due to a higher  number of fixed  rate  loans
     originated  and sold by First  Mid Bank as a  result  of  falling  interest
     rates. Loans sold balances are as follows:
          o    $19.0 million (representing 218 loans) for the 3rd quarter 2001.
          o    $4.7 million (representing 70 loans) for the 3rd quarter 2000.

     First Mid Bank generally releases servicing on these loans thereby reducing
the capitalization of orginated mortgage servicing rights.

o    Other income  increased  $142,000 or 47.0% to $444,000 from $302,000.  This
     increase  is  primarily  due to an  increase  in late  charge  fees  and an
     increase in ATM service charges due to the number of ATM's increasing.

     Explanations  for the nine months ended  September  30, 2001 as compared to
the same period in 2000:

o    Trust revenues  increased  $64,000 or 4.7% to $1,426,000  from  $1,362,000.
     This increase was partially due to an increase in trust fees. Trust assets,
     reported at market  value,  were $288 million at September  30, 2001,  $303
     million at December 31, 2000, and $307 million at September 30, 2000.

o    Revenues from  brokerage and annuity  sales  decreased  $99,000 or 26.8% to
     $271,000 from  $370,000.  This was primarily due to an overall  downturn in
     the stock market.

o    Fees from service  charges  increased  $473,000 or 25.8% to $2,309,000 from
     $1,836,000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of
     transaction accounts with the acquisition of American Bank of Illinois,  as
     well as a fee increase in the 4th quarter 2000.

o    Sales of  investment  securities  resulted in a net gain of $154,000.  This
     primarily  resulted from the sale of several  securities in the  available-
     for-sale  portfolio  to improve the overall  portfolio  mix and the margin,
     including the sale of four  corporate  bonds with a narrow change in spread
     due to the downturn in the market.

o    Mortgage  banking  income  increased  $503,000 or 192.7% to  $764,000  from
     $261,000.  This  increase  was due to a higher  number of fixed  rate loans
     originated  and sold by First  Mid Bank as a  result  of  falling  interest
     rates. Loans sold balances are as follows:
          o    $45.2 million (representing 520 loans) for the 9 months in 2001.
          o    $11.7 million (representing 163 loans) for the 9 months in 2000.

o    Other income increased $453,000 or 49.5% to $1,368,000 from $915,000.  This
     increase is primarily  due to  additional  income on credit life  insurance
     sales and an  increase  in ATM  service  charges due to the number of ATM's
     increasing.


Other Expense

     The  major  categories  of other  expense  include  salaries  and  employee
benefits,   occupancy  and  equipment  expenses  and  other  operating  expenses
associated with day-to-day operations.  The following table sets forth the major
components of other expense for the three months and nine months ended September

     Explanations  for the three months ended  September 30, 2001 as compared to
the same period in 2000:

o    Salaries and employee  benefits,  the largest  component of other  expense,
     increased  $331,000 or 13.1% to $2,850,000 from  $2,519,000.  This increase
     can be explained by merit increases for continuing  employees,  an increase
     in the number of  employees  due to the  acquisition  of  American  Bank of
     Illinois in April,  2001,  and due to a new branch  being opened at Eastern
     Illinois  University  during the 3rd quarter 2000. There were 293 full-time
     equivalent employees at September 30, 2001 compared to 269 at September 30,
     2000.

o    Occupancy and equipment  expense increased $71,000 or 7.7% to $990,000 from
     $919,000.  This  increase  included  building  maintenance,  utilities  and
     depreciation  expense  recorded on assets  acquired in the American Bank of
     Illinois acquisition.

o    All other categories of operating  expenses  increased a net of $199,000 or
     13.1% to  $1,714,000  from  $1,515,000.  This  increase is primarily due to
     higher  expense for customer  supplies and  printing  forms,  as well as an
     increase  in  intangible  amortization  associated  with  the  purchase  of
     American Bank of Illinois.

     Explanations  for the nine months ended  September  30, 2001 as compared to
the same period in 2000:

o    Salaries and employee  benefits,  the largest  component of other  expense,
     increased $607,000 or 8.0% to $8,152,000 from $7,545,000. This increase can
     be explained by merit  increases for continuing  employees,  an increase in
     the number of employees due to the acquisition of American Bank of Illinois
     in April,  2001,  and due to a new branch being opened at Eastern  Illinois
     University during 3rd quarter 2000.

o    Occupancy and equipment  expense  increased  $197,000 or 7.3% to $2,899,000
     from $2,702,000. This increase included building maintenance, utilities and
     depreciation  expense  recorded on assets  acquired in the American Bank of
     Illinois acquisition as well as higher utilities expense for all buildings.

o    All other categories of operating  expenses  increased a net of $626,000 or
     13.5% to  $5,280,000  from  $4,654,000.  This  increase is primarily due to
     higher expense for printing forms  associated with the purchase of American
     Bank of Illinois, and an increase in mortgage servicing expense.



                                       14


Income Taxes

     Total income tax expense amounted to $2,172,000  (31.3% effective tax rate)
for the nine months ended  September  30, 2001,  compared to  $1,474,000  (25.9%
effective  tax rate) for the same period in 2000.  During the nine months  ended
September 30, 2000, the Company  donated  property with a market value in excess
of the remaining  book value to the local school  district  which led to a lower
effective tax rate.


Analysis of Balance Sheets

Loans

     The loan portfolio is the largest category of the Company's earning assets.
The following  table  summarizes  the  composition  of the loan  portfolio as of
September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 (in thousands):

                                      -------------------------------------

     At September 30, 2001, the Company had loan  concentrations in agricultural
industries of $80.1 million,  or 17.2%, of outstanding  loans and $67.9 million,
or 15.8%,  at December 31, 2000. The Company had no further loan  concentrations
in excess of 10% of outstanding loans.

     Real estate mortgage loans have averaged approximately 70% of the Company's
total loan portfolio for the past several years.  This is the result of a strong
local housing  market and the Company's  historical  focus on  residential  real
estate  lending.  The  balance of real  estate  loans held for sale  amounted to
$3,547,000  and  $587,000  as of  September  30,  2001 and  December  31,  2000,
respectively.

(1) Based on scheduled principal repayments.
(2) Includes demand loans, past due loans and overdrafts.

     As of September 30, 2001,  loans with maturities over one year consisted of
approximately  $289,401,000 in fixed rate loans and $19,958,000 in variable rate
loans. The loan maturities  noted above are based on the contractual  provisions
of the individual loans.  Rollovers and borrower requests are handled on a case-
by-case basis.


Nonperforming Loans

     Nonperforming loans include: (a) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis;
(b) accruing loans  contractually past due ninety days or more as to interest or
principal  payments;  and loans  not  included  in (a) and (b)  above  which are
defined as "renegotiated loans".

     The following table presents information concerning the aggregate amount of
nonperforming loans at September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 (in thousands):


                                           September 30,      December 31,

                                        --------------------------------------

     At September 30, 2001,  approximately $1,543,000 of the nonperforming loans
resulted  from  collateral  dependent  loans to three  borrowers.  The Company's
policy  generally is to discontinue  the accrual of interest  income on any loan
for which  principal or interest is ninety days past due.  Nonaccrual  loans are
returned to accrual  status when,  in the opinion of  management,  the financial
position of the borrower indicates there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to
the timely collection of interest or principal.

     Interest   income  that  would  have  been  reported  if   nonaccrual   and
renegotiated  loans had been  performing  totaled  $205,000  for the nine months
ended  September  30, 2001 and  $154,000  for the year ended  December 31, 2000.
Interest  income on these loans that was included in income totaled  $12,000 and
$20,000 for the same periods.

Loan Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses

     The allowance for loan losses represents  management's best estimate of the
reserve necessary to adequately cover probable losses in the loan portfolio. The
provision  for loan  losses  is the  charge  against  current  earnings  that is
determined by management as the amount needed to maintain an adequate  allowance
for loan losses.  In determining  the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses,
and therefore the provision to be charged to current earnings, management relies
predominantly on a disciplined  credit review and approval process which extends
to the full  range of the  Company's  credit  exposure.  The  review  process is
directed by overall lending policy and is intended to identify,  at the earliest
possible  stage,  borrowers  who  might be  facing  financial  difficulty.  Once
identified,  the magnitude of exposure to individual  borrowers is quantified in
the form of specific  allocations  of the allowance for loan losses.  Collateral
values are  considered  by  management  in the  determination  of such  specific
allocations.  Additional  factors  considered by  management  in evaluating  the
overall adequacy of the allowance include  historical net loan losses, the level
and composition of nonaccrual,  past due and renegotiated  loans and the current
economic conditions in the region where the Company operates.

     Management recognizes that there are risk factors which are inherent in the
Company's loan portfolio.  All financial institutions face risk factors in their
loan  portfolios  because  risk  exposure  is a function  of the  business.  The
Company's  operations (and therefore its loans) are concentrated in east central
Illinois,  an area where  agriculture  is the  dominant  industry.  Accordingly,
lending and other business relationships with  agriculture-based  businesses are
critical to the Company's  success.  At September  30, 2001 the  Company's  loan
portfolio  included  $80.1 million of loans to borrowers  whose  businesses  are
directly  related to  agriculture.  The balance  increased by $12.2 million from
$67.9  million  at  December  31,  2000.  While  the  Company  adheres  to sound
underwriting practices including  collateralization of loans, an extended period
of low  commodity  prices  and/or  significantly  reduced  yields on crops could
nevertheless result in an increase in the level of problem agriculture loans.

     The Company  minimizes  credit risk by adhering to sound  underwriting  and
credit  review  policies.  These  policies are reviewed at least  annually,  and
changes are approved by the board of  directors.  Senior  management is actively
involved in business  development  efforts and the maintenance and monitoring of
credit  underwriting  and  approval.  The loan review  system and  controls  are
designed to identify,  monitor and address asset quality problems in an accurate
and timely manner.  The board of directors and  management  review the status of
problem  loans and  determines  the  adequacy of the  allowance.  In addition to
internal policies and controls, regulatory authorities periodically review asset
quality and the overall adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

     The weighted  average  yields are  calculated on the basis of the amortized
cost and effective yields weighted for the scheduled  maturity of each security.
Full  tax-equivalent  yields have been calculated using a 34% tax rate. With the
exception of obligations of the U.S. Treasury and other U.S. Government agencies
and corporations,  there were no investment  securities of any single issuer the
book value of which exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity at September 30, 2001.

     Investment   securities   carried   at   approximately   $129,894,000   and
$131,654,000  at September  30, 2001 and December 31, 2000,  respectively,  were
pledged  to secure  public  deposits  and  repurchase  agreements  and for other
purposes as permitted or required by law.

     Securities sold under  agreements to repurchase are short-term  obligations
of First Mid Bank. First Mid Bank collateralizes  these obligations with certain
government  securities which are direct  obligations of the United States or one
of its agencies.  First Mid Bank offers these retail repurchase  agreements as a
cash management service to its corporate customers.

     Federal Home Loan Bank advances  represent  borrowings by First Mid Bank to
economically fund loan demand.  This loan demand was previously funded primarily
through deposits by the State of Illinois.  The fixed term advances  consists of
$28.3 million which First Mid is using to fund loans:

     o    $5 million advance at 6.16% with a 5-year maturity, due 03/20/05
     o    $2.3 million advance at 6.10% with a 5-year maturity, due 04/07/05
     o    $5 million advance at 6.12% with a 5-year maturity, due 09/06/05
     o    $3 million advance at 6.58% with a 2-year maturity, due 10/10/02
     o    $5 million advance at 6.00% with a 5-year maturity, due 12/14/05
     o    $3 million advance at 5.98% with a 10-year maturity, due 03/01/11
     o    $5 million advance at 4.35% with a 9-month maturity, due 02/01/02


Interest Rate Sensitivity

     The Company seeks to maximize its net interest  margin within an acceptable
level of interest rate risk.  Interest rate risk can be defined as the amount of
forecasted  net  interest  income that may be gained or lost due to favorable or
unfavorable  movements in interest  rates.  Interest rate risk, or  sensitivity,
arises  when  the  maturity  or  repricing   characteristics  of  assets  differ
significantly from the maturity or repricing characteristics of liabilities.

     The Company monitors its interest rate  sensitivity  position to maintain a
balance  between rate  sensitive  assets and rate  sensitive  liabilities.  This
balance serves to limit the adverse  effects of changes in interest  rates.  The
Company's  asset/liability  management  committee  oversees  the  interest  rate
sensitivity position and directs the overall allocation of funds.

     In the  banking  industry,  a  traditional  measurement  of  interest  rate
sensitivity  is  known  as a  "GAP"  analysis,  which  measures  the  cumulative
differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities  maturing or repricing
at various intervals. The following table sets forth the Company's interest rate
repricing  gaps  for  selected  maturity  periods  at  September  30,  2001  (in
thousands):

interest rates, if any, could have an unfavorable effect on net interest margin.
The  Company's  ability  to lag the  market in  repricing  deposits  in a rising
interest  rate  environment  eases  the  implied  liability  sensitivity  of the
Company.

     Interest rate sensitivity  using a static GAP analysis basis is only one of
several  measurements  of the impact of interest  rate  changes on net  interest
income used by the Company.  Its actual  usefulness  in assessing  the effect of
changes in interest  rates varies with the constant  changes  which occur in the
composition of the Company's  earning assets and  interest-bearing  liabilities.
For this reason,  the Company uses financial  models to project  interest income
under  various  rate  scenarios  and  assumptions  relative to the  prepayments,
reinvestment  and rollovers of assets and  liabilities,  of which First Mid Bank
represents  substantially  all  of  the  Company's  rate  sensitive  assets  and
liabilities.


Capital Resources

     At September  30, 2001,  the Company's  stockholders'  equity had increased
$6,341,000 or 11.0% to  $64,068,000  from  $57,727,000  as of December 31, 2000.
During  the first nine  months of 2001,  net income  contributed  $4,772,000  to
equity before the payment of dividends to common stockholders. The change in net
unrealized  gain/loss  on  available-for-sale  investment  securities  increased
stockholders' equity by $1,998,00, net of tax.

     The  Company  is  subject  to  various  regulatory   capital   requirements
administered  by the federal banking  agencies.  Bank holding  companies  follow
minimum  regulatory  requirements  established by the Federal Reserve Board, and
First Mid Bank follows similar minimum regulatory  requirements  established for
national banks by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Failure to meet
minimum  capital  requirements  can  initiate  certain  mandatory  and  possibly
additional discretionary action by regulators that, if undertaken,  could have a
direct material effect on the Company's financial statements.



                                       23


     Quantitative  measures  established  by each  regulatory  agency  to ensure
capital adequacy require the reporting  institutions to maintain a minimum total
risk-based  capital ratio of 8% and a minimum  leverage ratio of 3% for the most
highly-rated banks that do not expect significant growth. All other institutions
are required to maintain a minimum  leverage  ratio of 4%.  Management  believes
that,  as of September  30, 2001 and December  31,  2000,  all capital  adequacy
requirements have been met by the Company and First Mid Bank.

     As of September  30, 2001,  the most recent  notification  from the primary
regulator  categorized  First Mid Bank as well capitalized  under the regulatory
framework for prompt  corrective  action. To be categorized as well capitalized,
minimum total  risk-based,  Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios must be
maintained  as set forth in the table.  There are no  conditions or events since
that notification that management believes have changed this category.

     Banks and bank holding  companies are  generally  expected to operate at or
above the minimum capital requirements. These ratios are in excess of regulatory
minimums and allow the Company to operate without capital adequacy concerns.


Stock Plans

     Company stock may be purchased by  participants  under the  following  four
plans of the Company's, the Deferred Compensation Plan, the First Retirement and
Savings Plan, the Dividend  Reinvestment Plan, and the Stock Incentive Plan. For
more detailed information on these plans, refer to the Company's 2000 Form 10-K.

     On August 5, 1998, the Company  announced a stock repurchase  program of up
to 3% of its common  stock.  During 2000,  the Board of Directors of the Company
authorized  the  repurchase of 5%, in addition to the original 3%, of its common
stock under this stock  repurchase  program.  Shares are repurchased at the most
recent market price of the stock. The Company  repurchased 38,457 shares (1.09%)
at a total price of $848,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and
90,254 shares (2.74%) at a total price of $1,881,000 for the year ended December
31, 2000. A total of 163,563 shares,  with an average cost of $21.80,  have been
repurchased  from the inception of this program to September  30, 2001,  and are
held in treasury.

     In  October,   2001,  the  Company's  Board  of  Directors  authorized  the
repurchase,  in open market or in privately  negotiated  transactions,  up to an
aggregate of $3 million of additional shares of common stock.


Liquidity

     Liquidity  represents  the ability of the Company and its  subsidiaries  to
meet the requirements of customers for loans and deposit withdrawals.  Liquidity
management  focuses  on the  ability  to  obtain  funds  economically  for these
purposes  and to maintain  assets  which may be  converted  into cash at minimal
costs. Other



                                       25

sources for cash include deposits of the State of Illinois,  brokered  deposits,
and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)  advances.  At September 30, 2001,  the excess
collateral  available under the FHLB advance program will support  approximately
$40 million of additional FHLB advances.

     Management monitors its expected liquidity requirements carefully, focusing
primarily on cash flows from:

o    lending  activities,  including  loan  commitments,  letters  of credit and
     mortgage prepayment assumptions.
o    deposit activities, including seasonal demand of private and public funds.
o    investing activities,  including prepayments of mortgage-backed  securities
     and call provisions on U.S. Government Treasuries and Agency securities.
o    operating activities,  including scheduled debt repayments and dividends to
     shareholders.

     As of September  30,  2001,  the Company  believes it will have  sufficient
funds  to meet  obligations  such  as loan  commitments  and  anticipated  stock
repurchases.


Effects of Inflation

     Unlike industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of
the Company  are  monetary in nature.  As a result,  interest  rates have a more
significant  impact on the  Company's  performance  than the  effects of general
levels  of  inflation.  Interest  rates  do not  necessarily  move  in the  same
direction or  experience  the same  magnitude of changes as goods and  services,
since  such  prices  are  effected  by  inflation.   In  the  current   economic
environment,  liquidity  and  interest  rate  adjustments  are  features  of the
Company's  assets and  liabilities  which are  important to the  maintenance  of
acceptable  performance  levels.  The  Company  attempts  to  maintain a balance
between  monetary  assets and monetary  liabilities,  over time, to offset these
potential effects.


ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     There has been no material  change in the market risks faced by the Company
since December 31, 2000. For  information  regarding the Company's  market risk,
refer to the Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December
31, 2000.


PART II
ITEM 1.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     Since First Mid Bank acts a depository  of funds,  it is named from time to
time as a defendant  in lawsuits  (such as  garnishment  proceedings)  involving
claims to the ownership of funds in  particular  accounts.  Management  believes
that all such litigation as well as other pending legal proceedings in which the



                                       26

Company is involved constitute  ordinary,  routine litigation  incidental to the
business of the Company and that such litigation  will not materially  adversely
affect the Company's consolidated financial condition.

     In addition to the normal proceedings referred to above,  Heartland Savings
Bank ("Heartland"),  a subsidiary of the Company that merged with First Mid Bank
during 1997, filed a complaint on December 5, 1995, against the U.S.  Government
which is now pending in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington D.C. This
complaint  relates to  Heartland's  interest  as  successor  to Mattoon  Federal
Savings and Loan Association which incurred a significant  amount of supervisory
goodwill when it acquired Urbana Federal Savings and Loan in 1982. The complaint
alleges that the U.S. Government  breached its contractual  obligations when, in
1989, it issued new rules which eliminated  supervisory  goodwill from inclusion
in regulatory capital. On August 6, 1998, First Mid Bank filed a motion with the
U.S. Court of Federal Claims to grant summary  judgement on liability for breach
of contract in this matter.  On August 13,  1998,  the U.S.  Government  filed a
motion to stay such proceedings.  At this time, it is too early to tell if First
Mid Bank will  prevail in its motion and, if so, what  damages,  if any,  may be
recovered.
