   NOTE 5 - Accounting by Creditors for Impaired Loans

   On January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
   Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
   of a Loan." Under the new standard, the allowance for credit losses related
   to loans that are identified for evaluation in accordance with Statement 114
   is based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective
   interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral
   dependent loans.  Prior to 1995, the allowance for credit losses related to
   these loans was based on undiscounted cash flows or the fair value of the
   collateral for collateral dependent loans.  A loan is considered impaired
   when a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
   contractual terms of the loan agreement.

   In accordance with Statement 114, a loan is classified as in-substance
   foreclosure when the Bank has taken possession of the collateral regardless
   of whether formal foreclosure proceedings take place.  Loans previously
   classified as in-substance foreclosure but which the Company had not taken
   possession of the collateral continue to be classified as loans.

   At June 30, 1996, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be
   impaired under Statement 114 was $6.2 million of which $4.4 million were on
   a non-accrual basis.  The average recorded investment in impaired loans
   during the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $6.0 million.  For the three
   and six months ended June 30, 1996, the Bank recognized interest income on
   those impaired loans of $15,000 and $55,000, respectively.

   NOTE 6 - Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights

   The Bank originates and purchases mortgage loans for sale in the secondary
   market, and sells the loans with servicing either retained or released. 
   Effective January 1, 1996, the Bank adopted SFAS No. 122 (Accounting for
   Mortgage Servicing Rights).  For servicing retained, this Statement requires
   capitalizing the cost of mortgage servicing rights, regardless of whether
   those rights were acquired through origination or purchase activities. 



                                         8


   Beginning in 1996, the total cost of mortgage loans purchased or originated
   with the intent to sell is allocated between the loan servicing right and
   the mortgage loan without servicing, based on their relative fair values at
   the date of origination or purchase.  The capitalized cost of loan servicing
   rights is amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net
   future servicing revenue.  Estimated servicing costs include direct costs
   associated with performing the servicing function and appropriate
   allocations of other costs. 

   Mortgage servicing rights are periodically evaluated for impairment.
   Impairment represents the excess of cost of an individual mortgage servicing
   rights stratum over its fair value, and is recognized through a valuation
   allowance.  The amount capitalized approximated the market value of
   servicing rights at June 30, 1996 and, accordingly, no valuation allowance
   for servicing rights was established.  Quoted market prices were used to
   estimate the fair value of servicing rights at June 30, 1996.

   The amounts capitalized during the three and six month periods ended June
   30, 1996 were $52,652 and $266,789, respectively.  The capitalized amount is
   being amortized over the estimated lives of the loans and the amortization
   in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 were $5,838 and
   $14,058, respectively.  At June 30, 1996 the fair value of capitalized
   mortgage servicing rights totaled $252,731.

   NOTE 7 - Investment in Forrest Holdings, Inc.

   On February 2, 1996, the Corporation purchased for $2.5 million a one-third
   interest in Forrest Holdings, Inc. of Oak Brook, Illinois.  Forrest
   Holdings, Inc. owns and operates Forrest Financial Corporation, a leasing
   company which provides financing for the acquisition of information systems,
   including equipment, software, training and maintenance.

                        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                  OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                            INDIANA FEDERAL CORPORATION


   FINANCIAL CONDITION

   Indiana Federal Corporation (the "Corporation") the parent company of
   Indiana Federal Bank for Savings (the "Bank"), had total assets of $742.3
   million at June 30, 1996, compared to total assets of $721.3 million at
   December 31, 1995.  

   Total investment securities declined by $8.2 million to $64.5 million at
   June 30, 1996 from $72.7 million at December 31, 1995.  This decline was due
   primarily to normal maturities and principal repayments.  In addition, the
   investment security balance reflected net unrealized losses of $767,000 at
   June 30, 1996 compared to net unrealized gains of $691,000 at December 31,
   1995.  Mortgage-backed securities increased $6.7 million to $33.4 million at
   June 30, 1996 from $26.7 million at December 31, 1995.  The increase in
   mortgage-backed securities was the result of management's decision to
   securitize $10.0 million of fixed-rate, one-to-four family mortgage loans
   with the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation.

   The net loan portfolio balance at June 30, 1996 increased $30.2 million to
   $552.9 million from $522.7 million at December 31, 1995. One- to four-family
   mortgage, income producing property, consumer and commercial loans
   originated and purchased during the six months ended June 30, 1996 were
   $60.0 million, $8.2 million, $24.4 million and $32.0 million, respectively,
   totaling $124.6 million or $37.5 million more than the $87.1 million
   originated and purchased during the same period a year ago.  Loan repayments
   totaled $58.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
   $66.9 million for the same period last year.  Sales of one- to four-family
   fixed-rate mortgage loans increased to $35.9 million for the six months
   ended June 30, 1996 from $11.0 million for the same period a year ago.

   Of the $60.0 million in one- to four-family mortgage loans originated and
   purchased, $24.0 million or 40 percent consisted of adjustable-rate mortgage
   loans including $14.1 million in short-term construction loans.  The
   remaining $36.0 million of one- to four-family mortgage loan volume
   represented long-term, fixed-rate loan origination.  Included in fixed-rate
   loan originations were $8.6 million of 15 year loans which were retained in
   the loan portfolio, $5.7 million of 30 year FHA and VA loans which were
   purchased from correspondents and $21.7 million which were originated for
   sale.  Fixed-rate loans held for sale at June 30, 1996 decreased to $1.3
   million from $16.0 million at December 31, 1995.  The loans held for sale at
   June 30, 1996 are all held to be delivered pursuant to forward sales
   commitments.  Loans held for sale are accounted for on a lower of cost or
   market basis.  As of June 30, 1996, the Corporation had recorded a net
   adjustment of $8,500 to reduce the book value of these loans to their fair
   market value.


                                         10

   Deposits increased $31.3 million to $564.2 million at June 30, 1996 from
   $532.9 million at December 31, 1995.  The increase in deposits occurred
   primarily as a result of an increase of $9.8 million in passbook, money
   market and other transaction accounts and an increase of $21.5 million in
   certificate of deposit balances.

   Shareholders' equity decreased to $70.3 million or $14.84 per share at June
   30, 1996 from $70.7 million or $14.98 per share at December 31, 1995.  The
   decline in shareholders' equity was primarily the result of a $1.3 million
   decrease in unrealized gains on the available-for-sale securities portfolio 
   and the payment of dividends.

   ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

   Management attempts to control fluctuations in net interest income which
   result from an imbalance in the volume of assets and liabilities repricing
   during a period of time.  The Bank attempts to mitigate its interest rate
   risk exposure by managing the maturity, prepayment and repricing
   characteristics of assets and liabilities.  The Bank retains certain fixed-
   rate and adjustable-rate loans and sells in the secondary market conforming
   thirty-year fixed-rate mortgage loans.  At June 30, 1996, the volume of
   liabilities repricing in one year or less exceeded the volume of assets
   repricing in one year or less by $85.3 million or a negative 11.68 percent of
   the Bank's total assets.  This figure compares to a negative 12.38 percent
   one year gap at December 31, 1995.

   NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND LOAN LOSS RESERVES

   The Corporation's non-performing assets decreased to $10.6 million or 1.42
   percent of total assets at June 30, 1996 from $11.0 million or 1.53 percent
   of total assets at December 31, 1995.

   Management continuously reviews the various loan portfolios to determine
   appropriate loan loss reserve levels.  Factors considered in these reviews
   include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, loan mix,
   historical charge-offs, condition of the underlying collateral and the
   ability of the borrower to repay the loan.  Management, as a result of this
   review process, recorded provision for loan losses of $150,000 and $200,000,
   respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996
   compared to $30,000 and $175,000, for the three and six months ended June
   30, 1995.

   Based on available information, management believes that the allowance for
   loan losses is adequate to absorb potential losses in the portfolio;
   however, future additions to the allowance may be necessary, based on
   changes in economic conditions.  In addition, various regulatory agencies
   periodically review the allowance for loan losses, and may require that
   additions be made based upon their judgement of information available to
   them at the time of their examination.  At June 30, 1996, the Corporation's
   allowance for loan losses totaled $6.7 million or 1.21 percent of net loans
   receivable compared to $6.7 million or 1.27 percent of net loans receivable
   at December 31, 1995.


                                         11


   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   The Corporation recorded earnings of $1.4 million or $.29 per share for the
   three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $2.2 million or $.46 per share
   for the same period last year.  Net income for the six months ended June 30,
   1996 was $3.0 million or $.63 per share compared to $3.8 million or $.78 per
   share for the same period a year ago.  The decline in 1996 net income was
   the result of lower net interest income and other income.  The return on
   average shareholders' equity declined to 8.52 percent for the six months
   ended June 30, 1996 compared to 11.41 percent for the same period in 1995. 
   The return on average assets was .83 percent for the six months ended June
   30, 1996 compared to 1.04 percent for the same period last year.

   The Corporation's net income is primarily dependent upon the difference
   between interest earned on its loans and investments and interest paid on
   deposits and borrowings.  Indiana Federal's net interest income after
   provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 1996 decreased
   to $5.9 million compared to $6.4 million for the same period in 1995.  Net
   interest income after provision for loan losses for the six months ended
   June 30, 1996 decreased to $11.9 million from $12.6 million for the same
   period last year.  The decline in net interest income was a result of higher
   interest rates on liability products and lower yields on interest-earning
   assets which produced lower net interest margins.  The net interest margin
   decreased to 3.60 percent for the three months ended June 30, 1996 compared
   to 3.85 percent for the same period last year.  For the six months ended
   June 30, 1996, the net interest margin declined to 3.64 percent compared to
   3.75 percent for the same period last year.  The decline in the net interest
   margin for the three months ended June 30, 1996 was primarily the result of
   a 25 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets.  The
   decline in net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was
   primarily due to an increase of 8 basis points in the average cost of
   interest-bearing liabilities and a 3 basis point decline in the yield on
   interest-earning assets.

   Other income declined to $826,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996
   from $1.7 million for the same period a year ago.  For the six months ended
   June 30, 1996, other income declined to $1.9 million compared to $2.3
   million for the same period last year.  When excluding gains and losses on
   the sale of assets, however, other income remained steady at $1.1 million
   for the three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period a year
   ago.  For the six months ended June 30, 1996, other income excluding gains
   and losses on the sale of assets increased by 12.8 percent to $2.4 million
   from $2.1 million for the same period last year.  The increase in other
   income, excluding gains and losses on the sale of assets, for the six month
   periods ended June 30, 1996, was primarily the result of increases in
   customer service fees and a $200,000 prepayment penalty collected on the
   payoff of an income-producing property loan.

   During the three months ended June 30, 1996, management chose to reduce the
   Corporation's interest rate risk pertaining to its loans held-for-sale
   portfolio.  As a result, the Corporation sold $31.9 million of loans during
   the three months ended June 30, 1996 resulting in net losses on the sale of
   mortgage loans of $291,000 compared to gains of 
    
                                         12

   $59,000 for the same period a year ago.  At March 31, 1996, the Corporation
   had recorded an adjustment of $195,000 reducing the loans held-for-sale at
   that time to their fair market value.  Losses on the sale and valuation of
   mortgage loans held-for-sale totaled $504,000 for the six months ended June
   30, 1996 compared to net gains of $64,000 for the same period a year ago.

   Other expenses remained relatively unchanged at $4.9 million for the three
   months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the same period a year ago.  For
   the six months ended June 30, 1996, other expenses increased slightly to
   $9.7 million compared to $9.6 million for the same period last year.  The
   increase in expenses was primarily due to increased depreciation on new
   equipment and higher computer service expenses.

   The deposits of savings associations such as the Bank are presently insured
   by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF"), which, along with
   the Bank Insurance Fund (the "BIF"), is one of the two insurance funds
   administered by the FDIC.  Financial institutions which are members of the
   BIF are experiencing substantially lower deposit insurance premiums because
   the BIF has achieved its required level of reserves while the SAIF has not
   yet achieved its required reserves.  A capitalization plan for the SAIF
   under consideration by Congress reportedly provides for a special assessment
   of 0.60 percent to 0.80 percent of deposits to be imposed on all SAIF
   insured institutions to enable the SAIF to achieve its required level of
   reserves.  If the proposed assessment of 0.60 percent to 0.80 percent was
   effected based on deposits as of March 31, 1995 (as proposed), the Bank's
   special assessment would amount to approximately $3.2 million to $4.3
   million, before taxes, respectively.  Accordingly, this special assessment
   would significantly increase non-interest expense and adversely affect the
   Company's results of operations.  Conversely, depending upon the Bank's
   capital level and supervisory rating, and assuming the insurance premium
   levels for BIF and SAIF members are again equalized, future deposit
   insurance premiums are expected to decrease significantly, to as low as .04
   percent of deposits from the .23 percent of deposits currently paid by the
   Bank, which would reduce non-interest expense for future periods.

   Income tax expenses totaled $426,000, an effective tax rate of 23.7 percent
   for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 compared to $1.0 million, an
   effective tax rate of 31.2 percent for the same period last year.  For the
   six months ended June 30, 1996, income tax expenses totaled $972,000 or an
   effective tax rate of 24.4 percent compared to $1.6 million or an effective
   tax rate of 29.3 percent for the same period last year.  Provision for
   income tax expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996
   included low to moderate income housing tax credits of $306,000 and $627,000
   respectively, compared to $237,000 and $574,000, respectively, for the same
   period last year.

   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   The Bank maintains certain levels of cash and other liquid assets to fund
   normal volumes of loan commitments, savings deposit activity and other
   obligations.  The Office of Thrift Supervision requires thrifts to maintain
   their liquidity ratio (cash and cash equivalent           

                                         13

   investments to net withdrawable deposits and borrowing due within one year)
   in excess of five percent.  As of June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Bank's
   liquidity ratio was 7.10 percent and 6.51 percent, respectively, which were
   both in excess of the minimum regulatory requirement.

   The Corporation's primary sources of funds include loan repayments, advances
   from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, reverse repurchase
   agreements, deposits and loan sales.  At June 30, 1996, the Corporation had
   commitments to originate $67.3 million of loans (including $17.4 million in
   unused lines of credit).  At the same date, scheduled maturities of
   certificates of deposit during the succeeding 12 months amounted to $252.7
   million (including $77.2 million within three months or less) and scheduled
   maturities of FHLB advances during such 12-month period amounted to $69.4
   million.  Management considers its current liquidity and additional sources
   of funds adequate to meet outstanding loan commitments.

   Current regulatory standards impose the following capital requirements:
   risk-based capital standard expressed as a percent of risk-adjusted assets,
   a leverage ratio of core capital to total adjusted assets and a tangible
   capital ratio expressed as a percent of total adjusted assets.  As of June
   30, 1996, the Bank substantially exceeded all regulatory capital
   requirements.

   At June 30, 1996, the Bank's tangible capital was $48.0 million or 6.60
   percent of adjusted total assets, which was in excess of the 1.5 percent
   requirement by $37.1 million.  In addition, at June 30, 1996, the Bank had
   core capital of $52.9 million or 7.21 percent of adjusted total assets,
   which exceeded the 3.0 percent requirement by $30.9 million.  The Bank also
   had risk-based capital of $58.6 million at June 30, 1996 or 12.97 percent,
   which exceeded the 8.0 percent risk based capital requirement by $20.5
   million.

   At June 30, 1996, the Corporation had acquired a total of 1,110,000 shares
   of its outstanding common shares through its previously announced share
   repurchase programs.  The Corporation acquired 7,000 shares in the six
   months ended June 30, 1996.

   The Board of Directors approved a $.18 per share, or $853,619 cash dividend
   for the second quarter of 1996.
