        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                   RURBAN FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES


NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated  financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for  interim  financial  information  and with the  instructions  to Form 10Q.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

     For further information,  refer to the consolidated  financial statements
and footnotes  included in the Corporation's  annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1994.

NOTE B--EARNINGS AND DIVIDENDS PER COMMON SHARE

     Earnings  per  common  share  have been  computed  based on the  weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented.  On January
7, 1994, the Board of Directors  declared a two-for-one stock split payable on
January 28, 1994 increasing  outstanding shares by 1,104,689 shares.  Earnings
per share and  dividends  declared per common share have been restated for all
periods presented to give effect to the stock split. The number of shares used
in the  computation  of earnings per common share was  2,029,378  for 1994 and
2,184,378 for 1995.


                                            10



Item 2.  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and
         Results of Operations

     Rurban Financial Corp.  ("Rurban") was incorporated on February 23, 1983,
under  the  laws of the  State  of  Ohio.  Rurban  is a bank  holding  company
registered  with the Federal  Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act
of 1956, as amended.  Rurban's subsidiaries,  The State Bank and Trust Company
("State  Bank"),  The Peoples  Banking  Company  ("Peoples  Bank"),  The First
National Bank of Ottawa ("First  National Bank") and the Citizens Savings Bank
("Citizens  Bank") are  engaged  only in the  industry  segment of  commercial
banking.  Rurban's  subsidiary,  Rurbanc Data Services  ("Rurbanc"),  provides
computerized data processing  services for the Corporation's  subsidiary banks
as well as other  banks  and  businesses.  Rurban's  subsidiary,  Rurban  Life
Insurance  Company  ("Rurban  Life") has a certificate  of authority  from the
State of Arizona to  transact  insurance  as a  domestic  life and  disability
reinsurer.

Liquidity

     Liquid  assets  consist  of cash,  amounts  due from  banks,  securities,
federal funds sold and loans held for sale. These assets increased $12,303,759
from December 31, 1994 to September 30, 1995.  Liquid assets were 26% of total
assets at December  31, 1994 and 28% of total  assets at  September  30, 1995.
This difference represents normal fluctuation and was not due to any change in
policy of management regarding liquidity.

Capital Resources

     Capital  Resources  increased  $3,415,905  between  December 31, 1994 and
September  30, 1995.  This  increase was  attributed to earnings of $3,180,861
less dividends  declared,  during the nine months ended September 30, 1995, of
$982,969  plus  change in net  unrealized  gain/(loss)  on  available-for-sale
securities of $1,218,013.

     The following table provides the minimum regulatory capital  requirements
and the Corporation's capital ratios at September 30, 1995.

                                      Minimum Regulatory      Corporation's
                                     Capital Requirements     Capital Ratio

Ratio of tier 1 capital to
  weighted-risk assets                      4.00%                  13.74%
Ratio of total capital to
  weighted-risk assets                      8.00%                  14.99%
Ratio of shareholders' equity
  to weighted risk assets                   4.00%                  14.34%
Leverage Ratio                              4.00%                   9.21%
Ratio of total shareholders'
  equity to total assets                    None                    9.58%


     The  Corporation's  subsidiaries meet the applicable  minimum  regulatory
capital   requirements  at  September  30,  1995.  The   Corporation   remains
comfortably above the minimum  regulatory  capital  requirements.  The Banking
Regulators  may alter  minimum  capital  requirements  as a result of revising
their  internal  policies and their  ratings of the  Corporation's  Subsidiary
Banks.

                                            11




     As of  September  30,  1995,  management  is not  aware  of  any  current
recommendation  by  banking  regulatory  authorities  which if they were to be
implemented  would have, or are reasonably  likely to have, a material adverse
effect on the Corporation's liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Supplemental Information

     Nonperforming  loans  decreased  $2,172,000  from  December  31,  1994 to
September  30,  1995  primarily  due  to  the  liquidation  of  several  large
Commercial  loans for which  recognition of future  interest income had become
questionable.

Material Changes in Financial Condition

     There were no material changes in financial condition as of September 30,
1995 compared to December 31, 1994.

Material Changes in Results of Operations

     Net  interest  income  for the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1995  was
$4,447,778 an increase of $1,056,807  (31%) over the third quarter of 1994 and
for the nine months was $12,645,077,  an increase of $2,856,283 (29%) over the
same period in 1994.  These  increases are primarily due to the acquisition of
Citizens  Bank  located  in  Pemberville,  Ohio,  in  October  of 1994,  and a
favorable increase in yields on earning assets.

     Total  noninterest  income increased  $114,069 (9%) to $1,438,571 for the
third quarter and $421,745  (11%) to $4,247,799  for the first nine months due
mainly to an increase of $16,657 (3%) and $127,485  (10%) in Trust  Department
fees, an increase in service charges on deposits of $68,905 (28%) and $156,326
(21%) and an increase in other  income of $5,473 (5%) and  $139,691  (44%) due
partly to the acquisition of Citizens Bank.

     Total noninterest  expense increased $870,582 (30%) to $3,808,577 for the
quarter ended  September 30, 1995 and $2,445,590  (27%) to $11,347,861 for the
nine months when  compared to the same periods in 1994,  due to the  following
factors.  Salaries and employee benefits increased $398,551 (29%) and $929,919
(22%),  respectively,  due in part to the acquisition of Citizens Bank as well
as to normal salary increases.  Equipment expense increased $120,275 (42%) for
the  quarter  and  $531,229  (63%) for the nine  months  due mainly to a major
conversion project undertaken by Rurbanc.  The most significant factors in the
increases  in other  expenses of $310,458  (29%) and  $902,035  (27%) were the
acquisition of Citizens Bank along with normal inflation.

     Income tax expense for the quarter was  $602,153,  an increase of $89,423
and for the nine months was $1,578,719, an increase of $268,391, over the same
periods in 1994, due to an increase in taxable income.

     The result of all these  factors is an increase in net income of $162,936
(16%) for the three  months and an  increase  of  $476,112  (18%) for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995.
