     This Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Form  10-K")  contains  statements  which
constitute  forward  looking  statements  within  the  meaning  of  the  Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of
places in this Form 10-K and include  statements  regarding the intent,  belief,
outlook, estimate or expectations of the Holding Company (as defined below), its
directors or its officers primarily with respect to future events and the future
financial  performance  of the  Holding  Company.  Readers of this Form 10-K are
cautioned that any such forward looking  statements are not guarantees of future
events or  performance  and  involve  risks and  uncertainties,  and that actual
results may differ materially from those in the forward looking  statements as a
result of various factors. The accompanying  information  contained in this Form
10-K  identifies  important  factors  that could cause such  differences.  These
factors include  changes in interest rates;  loss of deposits and loan demand to
other  savings and  financial  institutions;  substantial  changes in  financial
markets;  changes in real estate values and the real estate  market;  regulatory
changes; or unanticipated results in pending legal proceedings.

                                     PART I

Item 1.  Business.

General

     Shelby  County  Bancorp (the "Holding  Company") is an Indiana  corporation
organized in June,  1991, to become a unitary savings and loan holding  company.
The Holding  Company became a unitary  savings and loan holding company upon the
conversion of Shelby County  Savings  Bank,  FSB ("SCSB") from a federal  mutual
savings  bank  to a  federal  stock  savings  bank  on  October  17,  1991  (the
"Conversion").  The principal asset of the Holding  Company  consists of 100% of
the issued and outstanding  shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share, of
SCSB.  SCSB began  operations in  Shelbyville,  Indiana and received its federal
charter in 1937. SCSB primarily  serves the needs of residents of Shelby County,
Indiana.

     SCSB directly, and indirectly,  through its service corporation subsidiary,
offers a number of consumer and commercial  financial  services.  These services
include: (i) residential and non-residential real estate loans; (ii) home equity
loans;  (iii) auto loans; (iv) installment loans; (v) loans secured by deposits;
(vi) home improvement loans; (vii) commercial loans;  (viii) NOW accounts;  (ix)
certificates of deposit,  (x) consumer and commercial  demand deposit  accounts;
(xi) individual retirement accounts; and (xii) insurance products. SCSB provides
these  services  through  its four  full-service  offices,  two in  Shelbyville,
Indiana,  one in St. Paul,  Indiana and one in Morristown,  Indiana.  It has two
automated teller machines, located at its offices in Shelbyville.  Historically,
SCSB has concentrated business activities within Shelby County.

     SCSB's  primary   source  of  revenue  is  interest   income  from  lending
activities,   primarily  the  origination  of  residential  mortgage  loans.  At
September  30,  1997,  $50.2  million,   or  62.8%  of  SCSB's  total  loan  and
mortgage-backed  securities portfolio consisted of mortgage loans on one-to-four
family  residential  real property.  These loans are generally  secured by first
mortgages on the property. Substantially all of the real estate loans originated
by SCSB are secured by properties  located in Shelby  County,  although SCSB has
authority to make or purchase real estate loans  throughout  the United  States.
SCSB's  portfolio of  mortgage-backed  securities  constituted 4.1% of its total
loan  and   mortgage-backed   securities   portfolio  at  September   30,  1997.
Multi-family   loans  constituted  5.7%  of  SCSB's  loan  and   mortgage-backed
securities portfolio at September 30, 1997.

     SCSB also makes  non-residential  real  estate  loans which  totaled  $11.7
million at September 30, 1997, or 14.7% of SCSB's total loan and mortgage-backed
securities portfolio. All other loans, including residential construction,  home
equity and improvement,  installment,  auto loans, loans secured by deposits and
commercial  loans,  totaled  $13.5  million,  or 16.9% of SCSB's  total loan and
mortgage-backed securities portfolio, at September 30, 1997.




     In the early 1980s, most savings associations' loan portfolios consisted of
long-term,  fixed-rate loans, which then carried low interest rates. At the same
time, most savings  associations had to pay competitive and high market interest
rates on deposits in order to be competitive and maintain deposit accounts. This
resulted in a "negative" interest spread.  SCSB experienced these problems,  but
responded to them as changes in regulations  over the period  permitted,  and it
has thus been quite  successful  in managing its interest  rate risk.  Among its
strategies are an emphasis on originating adjustable-rate mortgages,  short-term
consumer  loans,  and  adjustable  rate home equity  loans.  Additionally,  SCSB
attempts to lengthen liability repricing periods by aggressively  pricing longer
term certificates of deposit during periods of relatively low interest rates.




     Lending Activities

     Loan  Portfolio  Data.  The following  table sets forth the  composition of
SCSB's loan portfolio by loan type and security type as of the dates  indicated,
including  a  reconciliation  of  gross  loans  receivable  and  mortgage-backed
securities  after  consideration  of the  allowance for possible loan losses and
deferred net loan fees on loans.

         SCSB's portfolio  includes no highly leveraged  transaction loans. SCSB
does not intend to make such loans in the future. The following table sets forth
certain information at September 30, 1997,  regarding the dollar amount of loans
maturing in SCSB's loan portfolio based on the due date of each payment.  Demand
loans  having no stated  schedule  of  repayments  and no  stated  maturity  are
reported as due in one year or less.  This schedule does not reflect the effects
of possible  prepayments  or  enforcement  of  due-on-sale  clauses.  Management
expects prepayments will cause actual maturities to be shorter.

     Residential Loans.  Approximately  $50.2 million,  or 62.8% of SCSB's total
loan and mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio at September 30, 1997, consisted
of  one-to-four  family  mortgage  loans,  of  which   approximately  91.7%  had
fixed-rates.  Such  loans  are  generally  not  written  on  terms  that  are in
conformity  with the  standard  underwriting  criteria of the Federal  Home Loan
Mortgage  Corporation  ("FHLMC") or the Federal  National  Mortgage  Association
("FNMA"),  thereby making resale of such loans  difficult.  See "-- Origination,
Purchase and Sale of Loans." SCSB's fixed-rate mortgages generally have terms of
15, 20, 25 or 30 years.

     SCSB began  originating  adjustable  rate  mortgages in April,  1988. As of
September  30, 1997,  approximately  8.3% of the mortgage  loans on  one-to-four
family  residences  included  in  SCSB's  loan  and  mortgage-backed  securities
portfolio had adjustable rates. The adjustment for all of SCSB's adjustable rate
mortgage loans is indexed to U.S. Treasury securities.  Such loans have interest
rates which adjust  annually,  with maximum rate changes of 2.0% per adjustment.
These loans have terms of 25 years.

     The rates  offered on SCSB's  adjustable  rate and  fixed-rate  residential
mortgage loans are competitive  with the rates offered by other mortgage lenders
in SCSB's market area.

     Although  SCSB's  residential  mortgage loans are written for  amortization
terms up to 30 years,  due to  prepayments  and  refinancings,  its  residential
mortgage loans generally have remained  outstanding for a substantially  shorter
period of time than the maturity terms of the loan contracts.

     Substantially  all  of  the  residential   mortgage  loans  that  SCSB  has
originated  since 1987 include "due on sale" clauses,  which give SCSB the right
to declare a loan  immediately  due and payable in the event  that,  among other
things, the borrower sells or otherwise disposes of the real property subject to
the  mortgage  and the  loan  is not  repaid.  SCSB  requires  private  mortgage
insurance on all  conventional  residential  single-family  mortgage  loans with
loan-to-value  ratios in excess of 89%.  SCSB will not lend more than 95% of the
lower  of  current  cost or  appraised  value  of a  residential  single  family
property.  At  September  30,  1997,  residential  mortgage  loans  amounting to
$416,000, or .5% of SCSB's total loan and mortgage-backed  securities portfolio,
were included in non-performing assets.

     SCSB  offers  residential  construction  loans  only  in  conjunction  with
residential mortgage loans. Interest is charged on the money disbursed under the
loan.  After the  construction  phase  (typically 3 to 12 months),  SCSB makes a
mortgage loan, the proceeds of which are used to pay off the construction  loan.
At September  30,  1997,  SCSB had $1.0  million,  or 1.3% of its total loan and
mortgage-backed   securities  portfolio,   in  residential   construction  loans
outstanding.

     Mortgage-Backed Securities. As of September 30, 1997, $3.3 million, or 4.1%
of SCSB's  total loan and  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio  consisted  of
mortgage-backed  securities.  These mortgage-backed  securities had an estimated
market value of $3.0 million at September 30, 1997.  Management  has  classified
these  securities  into held to maturity and  available  for sale  portfolios in
accordance with Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No 115, "Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."

     Non-Residential Real Estate Loans. At September 30, 1997, $11.7 million, or
14.7%, of SCSB's total loan and mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio consisted
of mortgage loans secured by non-residential  real estate.  The  non-residential
mortgage  loans,  substantially  all adjustable  rate, are written for terms not
exceeding 25 years, and generally  require a 70% or lower  loan-to-value  ratio.
The largest  non-residential  mortgage  loan as of  September  30,  1997,  had a
balance of $888,000. At that date, all of SCSB's non-residential  mortgage loans
consisted of loans secured by real estate located in Indiana.

     Under the Financial  Institutions  Reform,  Recovery,  and  Enforcement Act
("FIRREA"),  a savings  association's  portfolio of non-residential  real estate
loans is limited to 400% of its capital.  In addition,  the  application  of the
Qualified  Thrift  Lender  ("QTL")  test  has had the  effect  of  limiting  the
aggregate  investment  in  non-residential  real estate loans made by SCSB.  See
"Regulation  -- Qualified  Thrift  Lender."  SCSB  currently  complies  with the
non-residential real estate loan limitations.




     Generally,  non-residential  mortgage  loans  involve  greater risk than do
residential loans.  Non-residential mortgage loans typically involve larger loan
balances to single borrowers or groups of related  borrowers.  In addition,  the
payment experience on loans received by income-producing properties is typically
dependent on the  successful  operation  of the related  project and thus may be
subject to adverse  conditions  in the real  estate  market or in the economy in
general.

     Multi-Family Loans. At September 30, 1997, $4.5 million, or 5.7%, of SCSB's
total loan and mortgage-backed  securities portfolio consisted of mortgage loans
secured by multi-family  dwellings  (those  consisting of more than four units).
All of SCSB's  multi-family loans are secured by apartment  complexes located in
Shelby County.  The largest such multi-family  mortgage loan as of September 30,
1997,  had a balance of $635,000 and none of these loans was  non-performing  at
that time.  As with  SCSB's  non-residential  real  estate  loans,  multi-family
mortgage  loans are  substantially  all adjustable  rate loans,  are written for
terms not exceeding 25 years, and require at least a 75% loan-to-value ratio.

     Multi-family  loans,  like  non-residential  real estate  loans,  involve a
greater risk than do residential loans. See "Non-Residential  Real Estate Loans"
above.  Also, the more stringent  loans-to-one  borrower  limitation,  described
below in  "Origination,  Purchase and Sale of Loans," limits the ability of SCSB
to make loans to developers of apartment complexes and other multi-family units.

     Home Equity  Loans.  SCSB  markets a home equity line of credit  loan.  The
maximum  loan-to-value  ratio for such loans is 80%,  and the minimum  draw on a
home equity line of credit is $250. As of September 30, 1997,  SCSB had $977,000
outstanding  home equity  loans,  or 1.2% of its total loan and  mortgage-backed
securities  portfolio,  with  $546,000 of  additional  credit  available  to its
borrowers under existing home equity lines of credit. Home equity line of credit
loans are adjustable rate loans,  indexed to the base rate on corporate loans at
large U.S. money center  commercial banks that the Wall Street Journal publishes
as the Prime Rate.

     Consumer Loans.  Federal laws and regulations  permit  federally  chartered
savings  associations  to  make  secured  and  unsecured  consumer  loans  in an
aggregate amount of up to 35% of the association's total assets. In addition,  a
federally  chartered  savings  association  has lending  authority above the 35%
limit for certain consumer loans, such as property improvement loans and deposit
account secured loans. However, the QTL test places additional  limitations on a
savings  association's  ability  to make  consumer  loans.  See  "Regulation  --
Qualified Thrift Lender."

     In the  spring  of  1989,  SCSB,  as part of its  strategy  of  becoming  a
community  bank for Shelby  County,  hired a Vice President -- Consumer Loans to
guide  SCSB's  entry  into the  consumer  loan  area.  By  September  30,  1997,
approximately  eight and one-half years after SCSB began making  consumer loans,
these  loans,  consisting  primarily  of auto,  installment,  loans  secured  by
deposits and home improvement loans, were $7.5 million, or approximately 9.4% of
SCSB's total loan and mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio.  Although consumer
loans  are  currently  only a  small  portion  of  its  lending  business,  SCSB
consistently  originates consumer loans to meet the needs of its customers,  and
SCSB   intends  to   originate   more  such  loans  to  assist  in  meeting  its
asset/liability management goals.

     Although  consumer  loans  generally  involve  a higher  level of risk than
one-to-four  family  residential  mortgage loans, their relatively higher yields
and  shorter  terms to  maturity  are  believed  to be helpful in  reducing  the
interest-rate risk of SCSB's portfolio. At September 30, 1997, no consumer loans
were included in non-performing assets.

     SCSB's portfolio of automobile loans was $3.9 million, or 4.9% of its total
loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolio at September 30, 1997. These loans
are for a maximum  term of 66 months,  and the borrower  must  provide  proof of
insurance.

     Installment  loans,  loans secured by deposits and home  improvement  loans
totaled  $3.4  million,  or  4.3%  of  SCSB's  total  loan  and  mortgage-backed
securities portfolio at September 30, 1997.




     Commercial Loans. SCSB makes a limited number of secured  commercial loans.
At September 30, 1997,  these loans,  which included  inventory  financing for a
lawn and garden  equipment  supplier,  totaled $3.9  million,  or 4.9% of SCSB's
total loan and mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio.  All commercial loans are
currently performing under their original terms.

     Origination,  Purchase and Sale of Loans. SCSB currently does not originate
its residential  mortgage loans in conformity with the standard  criteria of the
FHLMC or FNMA.  SCSB would therefore  experience  some  difficulty  selling such
loans in the  secondary  market,  although  most  loans  could be  brought  into
conformity.  SCSB has no intention,  however,  of attempting to sell such loans.
SCSB's  mortgage  loans  vary  from  secondary   market  criteria  because  SCSB
capitalizes  taxes rather than using escrow accounts.  This practice allows SCSB
to keep its  administrative  costs  down and have  thus  provided  SCSB with the
competitive  advantage of being able to make  mortgage  loans  without  charging
points.  However,  SCSB's  inability to quickly and easily sell its  residential
mortgage  loans may subject SCSB to increased  interest rate risk (since most of
SCSB's  residential  mortgage loans have fixed rates) and could adversely affect
SCSB's liquidity position during periods of rising interest rates.

     Although  SCSB  currently  has  authority  to lend  anywhere  in the United
States,  it has confined  its loan  origination  activities  primarily to Shelby
County,  Indiana.  SCSB's loan  originations  are generated  from referrals from
builders,  developers,  real estate brokers and existing  customers,  newspaper,
radio and periodical advertising, and walk-in customers. Loans are originated at
either  the main or branch  office.  All loan  applications  are  processed  and
underwritten at SCSB's main office.

     FIRREA contains a generally more stringent loans-to-one-borrower limitation
than that applicable to savings  associations before FIRREA's  enactment.  Under
FIRREA, a savings  association  generally may not make any loan to a borrower or
its related  entities if the total of all such loans by the savings  association
exceeds 15% of its capital (plus up to an additional  10% of capital in the case
of loans  fully  collateralized  by readily  marketable  collateral);  provided,
however, that loans up to $500,000 regardless of the percentage  limitations may
be made and  certain  housing  development  loans of up to $30 million or 30% of
capital,  whichever is less, are permitted.  The maximum amount which SCSB could
have loaned to one borrower and the borrower's related entities under the 15% of
capital limitation was $935,000 at September 30, 1997. At that date, the highest
outstanding  balance of loans by SCSB to one borrower  and related  entities was
approximately $888,000, an amount within such loans-to-one-borrower limitations.
SCSB's portfolio of loans and mortgage-backed  securities  currently contains no
group of loans-to-one-  borrower that in the aggregate exceed the 15% of capital
limitation.

     SCSB's loan approval  process is intended to assess the borrower's  ability
to repay the loan,  the  viability  of the loan and the adequacy of the value of
the property that will secure the loan.  SCSB studies the  employment and credit
history and  information on the historical and projected  income and expenses of
its  individual  and  corporate  mortgagors to assess their ability to repay its
mortgage  loans.  It uses an  independent  appraiser  to appraise  the  property
securing  its  loans  and  requires  title  insurance  and a  valid  lien on its
mortgaged real estate. Generally, appraisals on real estate underlying most real
estate  loans in excess of  $100,000  are  required  to be  performed  by either
state-licensed or state-certified appraisers,  depending on the type and size of
the loan. SCSB requires fire and extended coverage insurance in amounts at least
equal to the principal  amount of the loan. It may also require flood  insurance
to  protect  the  property   securing  its  interest.   SCSB   generally   makes
disbursements  for taxes and  insurance  on the  borrower's  behalf,  adding the
amount of such disbursements to the principal of the loan.

     SCSB applies  consistent  underwriting  standards  to the several  types of
consumer loans it makes to protect SCSB adequately against the risks inherent in
making such loans.  Borrower character,  paying habits, net worth and underlying
collateral are important considerations.




     SCSB  does  not sell and  rarely  purchases  loans.  SCSB  may  enter  into
participations  to diversify its portfolio,  to supplement local loan demand and
to obtain more favorable yields.  During the year ended September 30, 1992, SCSB
acquired a $114,000 participation in a mobile home park in Shelby County. During
the  year  ended   September  30,  1993,  SCSB  acquired   additional   $182,000
participation in the same mobile home park.  During the year ended September 30,
1996, SCSB acquired an additional  $366,000 in loan  participations.  During the
year ended  September 30, 1997,  SCSB acquired an additional  $1,908,000 in loan
participation.   As  of  September   30,  1997,   SCSB  held  in  its  loan  and
mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio 16 participations.  SCSB's portion of the
outstanding balance of such participations on that date was $4,489,000.

activity for SCSB during the periods indicated:

     Origination  and Other Fees. SCSB realizes income from fees for originating
loans,  late  charges,  checking  account  service  charges,  and fees for other
miscellaneous  services,  including  cashier's  checks. In order to increase its
competitive position with respect to other mortgage lenders, SCSB currently does
not charge  points and  charges a flat  mortgage  origination  fee of $300,  not
dependent  on the size of the loan,  payable at loan  closing.  Late charges are
assessed if payment is not received  within a specified  number of days after it
is due.




     SCSB charges miscellaneous fees for appraisals, inspections (including a 1%
inspection fee for construction loans),  obtaining credit reports,  certain loan
applications,  recording and similar services.  SCSB also collects fees for Visa
and Mastercard  applications which it refers to another  institution.  SCSB does
not make credit card loans directly.

     Non-Performing Assets

     Mortgage  loans are reviewed by SCSB on a regular  basis and are  generally
placed on a non-accrual  status when the loans become  contractually past due 90
days or more.  Once a mortgage loan is 15 days past due, a notice of delinquency
is mailed to the  borrower.  Telephone  contact with the  borrower is made,  and
another  written  notice  follows  at the end of the  month,  with a  demand  to
pay-in-full  notice  sent on the 32nd day.  SCSB  attempts to arrange a personal
interview after a loan has been  delinquent for two months.  When the loan is 75
days  delinquent,  a title search or abstract  update is ordered.  By the time a
mortgage loan is 90 days past due,  management has decided whether to foreclose.
Further,  the loan status is reported  to the Board of  Directors.  The Board of
Directors  normally confers  foreclosure  authority at that time, but management
may continue to work with the borrower if circumstances warrant.

     Consumer  and  commercial  loans  other  than  mortgage  loans are  treated
similarly.  It is SCSB's  policy to  recognize  losses on these loans as soon as
they become apparent.  The Board will determine  whether to charge off a loan by
the time it is four months past due.

     At  September  30,  1997,  $453,000,  or .5%, of SCSB's  total  assets were
non-performing.

     At September 30, 1997,  SCSB did have one real estate  acquired as a result
of  foreclosure,  voluntary  deed, or other means  totaling  $37,000.  Such real
estate,  is classified  as "real estate  owned" or "REO" until it is sold.  When
property is so  acquired,  it is  recorded at the lower of the unpaid  principal
balance at the date of acquisition  plus  foreclosure and other related costs or
at fair value. Interest accrual ceases no later than the date of acquisition and
all costs incurred from that date in maintaining the property are expensed.

     The  table  below  sets  forth  the  amounts  and   categories   of  SCSB's
non-performing  assets  (non-accrual  loans, real estate owned and troubled debt
restructurings)  for the last  three  years.  It is the  policy of SCSB that all
earned but uncollected interest on all loans be reviewed monthly to determine if
any portion thereof should be classified as uncollectible  for any loan past due
in excess of 90 days.

(1)    SCSB generally places loans on a nonaccrual  status when the loans become
       contractually  past due 90 days or  more.  At  September  30,  1997,  all
       $416,000 of nonaccrual loans were residential loans. For the fiscal years
       ended  September 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the income that would have been
       recorded had the non-accrual  loans not been in a  non-performing  status
       was approximately $31,359, $15,585, and $38,529,  respectively,  compared
       to actual income recorded of $20,667, $8,696 and $8,195, respectively.




     As of September  30, 1997,  SCSB held loans  delinquent  from 30 to 89 days
aggregating  $2,190,000,  or 2.5% of total  assets.  The amount past due on such
loans  aggregated  approximately  $35,000.  Management does not believe that the
amount of delinquent  loans  represents a material  deterioration of SCSB's loan
portfolio.  SCSB is not aware of any  loans not  classified  as  non-accrual  or
delinquent of which the borrowers were experiencing financial difficulties.

     Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

     The allowance for possible loan losses is maintained  through the provision
for losses on loans,  which is charged to earnings.  The provision is determined
in  conjunction  with  management's  review and  evaluation of current  economic
conditions  (including  those of SCSB's lending area),  changes in the character
and size of the loan portfolio,  loan  delinquencies  (current status as well as
past  and  anticipated   trends)  and  adequacy  of  collateral   securing  loan
delinquencies,  historical and estimated net  charge-offs,  and other  pertinent
information  derived  from a review  of the loan  portfolio.  Loans or  portions
thereof are charged to the allowance  when losses are  considered  probable.  In
management's  opinion,  SCSB's allowance for possible loan losses is adequate to
absorb anticipated future losses from loans at September 30, 1997.

     The following  table  analyzes  changes in the  allowance  during the three
years ended September 30, 1997.

     In  management's  opinion,  SCSB's  allowance  for possible  loan losses at
September  30,  1997,  is  adequate  to absorb  anticipated  future  losses from
nonperforming and other loans.

      Investments

      SCSB's investment  portfolio consists of corporate and municipal bonds and
investments  in Federal Home Loan Bank  ("FHLB")  time and demand  deposits.  At
September 30, 1997,  approximately $8.2 million, or 9.1%, of SCSB's total assets
consisted of such investments.

     The OTS requires savings  associations to maintain an average daily balance
of  liquid  assets  equal to a  monthly  average  of not less  than a  specified
percentage of its net withdrawable savings deposits plus short-term  borrowings.
Liquid assets include cash, certain time deposits, certain bankers' acceptances,
specified  U.S.  government,  state  or  federal  agency  obligations,   certain
corporate debt  securities,  commercial  paper,  certain  mutual funds,  certain
mortgage-related  securities, and certain first lien residential mortgage loans.
This  liquidity  requirement  may be changed from time to time by the OTS to any
amount within the range of 4% to 10%, and is currently 5%,  although the OTS has
proposed a reduction  to 4%.  Monetary  penalties  may be imposed for failure to
meet these liquidity requirements. At September 30, 1997, SCSB had liquid assets
of $6.7 million,  and a regulatory  liquidity  ratio of 8.3%, of which 8.3% were
short-term investments.

     Sources Of Funds

     General.  Deposits have  traditionally  been SCSB's primary source of funds
for use in lending and  investment  activities.  In addition to  deposits,  SCSB
derives funds from loan amortization,  prepayments, retained earnings and income
on earning  assets.  While loan  amortization  and income on earning  assets are
relatively stable sources of funds, deposit inflows and outflows can vary widely
and are influenced by prevailing interest rates, market conditions and levels of
competition.




     Deposits.  Deposits are attracted,  principally  from within Shelby County,
through the offering of a broad selection of deposit  instruments  including NOW
accounts,  fixed-rate  certificates of deposit,  individual retirement accounts,
and savings  accounts.  SCSB does not actively solicit or advertise for deposits
outside of Shelby County, although deposits at the St. Paul branch may come from
neighboring  Decatur County and certain  advertising media may extend into other
nearby areas.  Substantially  all of SCSB's  depositors  are residents of Shelby
County.  Deposit  account terms vary, with the principal  differences  being the
minimum balance required, the amount of time the funds remain on deposit and the
interest rate.  Although SCSB has accepted a limited number of brokered deposits
in the past  (for  which it paid no  commissions),  SCSB does not  solicit  such
deposits and does not anticipate accepting such deposits in the future.

     Interest rates paid, maturity terms,  service fees and withdrawal penalties
are  established by SCSB on a periodic basis.  Determination  of rates and terms
are predicated on funds  acquisition and liquidity  requirements,  rates paid by
competitors, growth goals, and federal regulations.

     An  analysis  of SCSB  deposit  accounts  by  type,  maturity,  and rate at
September 30, 1997, is as follows:



                                                  Minimum         Balance at                          Weighted

     Borrowings.  Generally,  SCSB focuses on generating  high quality loans and
then funds such loans from deposits and  investments.  SCSB may obtain  advances
from the FHLB of Indianapolis  to supplement its supply of lendable  funds.  See
"Regulation -- Federal Home Loan Bank System" and  "--Qualified  Thrift Lender."
These  limitations  are not  expected  to have any  impact on SCSB's  ability to
borrow  from  the  FHLB  of  Indianapolis.  At  September  30,  1997,  SCSB  had
approximately  $17.7 million in borrowings  outstanding,  of which approximately
$17.7 million were FHLB advances. SCSB does not anticipate any problem obtaining
addtional  advances  appropriate to meet its requirements in the future, if such
advances should become necessary.

     Asset/Liability Management




     SCSB, like other savings associations,  is subject to interest rate risk to
the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities,  primarily deposits with short
and   medium-term   maturities,   mature  or  reprice   more  rapidly  than  its
interest-earning assets. Although having liabilities that mature or reprice more
frequently  on average  than assets  will be  beneficial  in times of  declining
interest  rates,  such an  asset/liability  structure  will  result in lower net
income during periods of rising interest  rates,  unless offset by other factors
such as non-interest income.  Therefore, a key element of SCSB's asset/liability
plan is to protect net earnings  from changes in interest  rates by reducing the
maturity  or  repricing  mismatch  between  its   interest-earning   assets  and
rate-sensitive liabilities.

     Principal elements of SCSB's  asset/liability  management  strategy include
the  origination  of  residential  and  small  commercial  mortgage  loans  with
adjustable  interest rates and increasing the origination of consumer loans. For
example,  SCSB has  increased its  adjustable  rate  mortgages  from $107,000 at
September 30, 1987, to  $6,587,000 at September 30, 1997.  Consumer  lending was
initiated in March 1989 and had a balance of $7,512,000 at September 30, 1997.

     The difference  between SCSB's assets and liabilities having maturities and
repricing  periods of one year or less ("Interest Rate Gap") was negative 26.16%
at September  30,  1997. A negative  Interest  Rate Gap leaves  SCSB's  earnings
vulnerable to periods of rising  interest  rates because during such periods the
interest expense paid on liabilities  will generally  increase more rapidly than
the interest  income earned on assets.  Conversely,  in a falling  interest rate
environment,  the total expense paid on liabilities will generally decrease more
rapidly than the interest income earned on assist. A positive  Interest Rate Gap
will have the opposite  effect.  During the years ended  September 30, 1990, and
1989, SCSB's negative Interest Rate Gap did not result in increased net interest
income even though interest rates were falling.  During that period of time, the
expected  decrease in the average rate paid on deposits due to falling  interest
rates was offset by depositors  reinvesting  their time deposits from lower-rate
short-term certificates to higher-rate long-term certificates. Additionally, new
deposit customer  accounts were attracted to the higher rate  certificates.  Net
interest  income  during  that  period was also  reduced  because a  significant
portion of the increased  funds derived from deposits was invested in short-term
interest-earning instruments with a lower yield than long-term fixed-rate loans.
During the years ended  September 30, 1991 through and  including  September 30,
1997 interest income was positively affected by falling interest rates.

     SCSB has used a portion of the proceeds  from the  conversion  to originate
both consumer loans and adjustable  rate  mortgages,  which have assisted in the
management  of  Interest  Rate Gap.  Recently,  the demand  for  adjustable-rate
mortgage  loans in SCSB's  lending area has decreased and customers  have sought
fixed-rate  loans due to the  relatively  low  long-term  interest  rates.  SCSB
remains committed to originating adjustable rate mortgage loans, although market
conditions  may  require  that it  originate  more fixed rate  mortgages  in the
future. SCSB will respond to a continued stronger demand for fixed-rate loans by
emphasizing longer-term deposits and the purchase of adjustable-rate mortgages.

     Management of SCSB  believes  that its Interest Rate Gap in recent  periods
has  generally  been,  and currently  is,  acceptable in view of the  prevailing
interest rate environment.  However,  because of SCSB's concentration of earning
assets in fixed-rate  mortgage  loans,  net interest  income will continue to be
adversely affected by a significant rising interest rate environment.  SCSB will
continue to seek to improve the matching of its assets and liabilities as market
conditions permit.




     The following table illustrates the projected  maturities and the repricing
mechanisms of the major asset and  liability  categories of SCSB as of September
30,  1997.  Maturity  and  repricing  dates have been  projected by applying the
assumptions  set forth below to contractual  maturity and repricing  dates.  The
information  presented  in the  following  table is  derived  from  data that is
provided to the OTS in "Schedule CMR: Consolidated  Maturity/Rate" filed as part
of SCSB's September 30, 1997, quarterly report. That information in Schedule CMR
was  reformulated  by the Federal Home Loan Bank of  Indianapolis  (the "FHLBI")
based upon certain repricing and other assumptions  determined by the FHLBI. The
repricing  and other  assumptions  determined  by the FHLBI are based on a study
done by the FHLBI of industry  interest  rate and  repricing  trends and are not
necessarily  representative  of SCSB's actual results.  Classifications  of such
items are  different  from those  presented  in other  schedules  and  financial
statements included herein.

     In preparing  the table above,  it has been  assumed,  consistent  with the
assumptions  used  by  the  FHLBI  at  September  30,  1997,  in  assessing  the
interest-rate  sensitivity of savings  institutions,  that (i)  adjustable  rate
first mortgage loans on one-to four-family  residences will repay at the rate of
22.0% per year;  (ii) first mortgage loans on residential  properties of five or
more units and  non-residential  properties will prepay at the rate of 15.0% per
year;  (iii) fixed-rate  first mortgage loans on one-to  four-family  residences
with  terms to  maturity  of 5 years or less  will  prepay at a rate of 7.8% per
maturity  classification;  (iv)  second  mortgage  loans on  one-to  four-family
residences  will  prepay at a rate of 26.0%  per  maturity  classification;  (v)
non-mortgage loans and investments will not prepay; and (vi) fixed-rate mortgage
loans on one-to  four-family  residential  properties  with  remaining  terms to
maturity of more than 5 years will prepay annually as follows:

                 Interest Rate                Prepayment Assumption
                 Less than 8%                          7.8%
                   8 to 8.99%                          8.6%

     In addition,  it is assumed that fixed maturity  deposits are not withdrawn
prior to maturity, and that other deposits are withdrawn or reprice as follows:

     In  evaluating   SCSB's  exposure  to  interest  rate  movements,   certain
shortcomings  inherent  in the method of  analysis  presented  in the  foregoing
tables must be considered.  For example, although certain assets and liabilities
may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different
degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain
types of assets and  liabilities  may  fluctuate in advance of changes in market
interest  rates,  while  interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in
market rates.  Additionally,  certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgages,
have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and
over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates,
prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate  significantly  from
those assumed in calculating the table.  Finally,  the ability of many borrowers
to service  their debt may decrease in the event of an interest  rate  increase.
SCSB  considers all of these factors in monitoring its exposure to interest rate
risk.

     Service Corporation Subsidiary

     Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS")  regulations  permit federal savings
associations  to invest in the capital stock,  obligations,  or other  specified
types of securities of subsidiaries (referred to as "service  corporations") and
to make loans to such subsidiaries and joint ventures in which such subsidiaries
are  participants  in an aggregate  amount not exceeding 2% of an  association's
assets,  plus an  additional  1% of  assets  if the  amount  over 2% is used for
specified community or inner-city  development  purposes.  In addition,  federal
regulations  permit  associations  to make  specified  types  of  loans  to such
subsidiaries (other than  special-purpose  finance  subsidiaries),  in which the
association  owns  more  than  10% of the  stock,  in an  aggregate  amount  not
exceeding  50% of the  association's  regulatory  capital  if the  association's
regulatory  capital  is in  compliance  with  applicable  regulations.  [ FIRREA
requires  a  savings   association  that  acquires  a  non-savings   association
subsidiary,  or that elects to conduct a new activity  within a  subsidiary,  to
give the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") and the OTS at least
30 days advance written notice.  The FDIC may, after  consultation with the OTS,
prohibit  specific  activities if it determines  such  activities pose a serious
threat to the Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF").  Moreover, FIRREA
requires  savings  associations to deduct from capital,  for purposes of meeting
the core capital,  tangible capital, and risk-based capital requirements,  their
entire  investment  in and  loans to a  subsidiary  engaged  in  activities  not
permissible for a national bank (other than  exclusively  agency  activities for
its customers or mortgage banking subsidiaries).]

     SCSB wholly owns two subsidiaries.  First Tier One Corporation,  an Indiana
corporation ("First Tier One"), holds common stock issued by Savings & Loan Data
Corporation.  Through March 1994, it offered tax-deferred annuity products.  The
Shelby Group,  Inc.,  an Indiana  Corporation  ("TSGI"),  offered a full line of
insurance  products,  including health,  life, auto and medical insurance.  SCSB
ceased the operations of TSGI as of November 1, 1996.

     Employees

     As of September  30,  1997,  the Holding  Company  employed no persons on a
full- or part-time  basis. As of September 30, 1997, SCSB employed 32 persons on
a  full-time  basis and  three  persons  on a  part-time  basis.  None of SCSB's
employees are represented by a collective bargaining group. Management considers
its employee relations to be good.

     Competition

     SCSB  originates  most of its loans to, and  accepts  most of its  deposits
from, residents of Shelby County, Indiana and surrounding counties.  SCSB is the
only locally-owned financial institution remaining in Shelby County.

     SCSB  is  subject  to  competition  from  various  financial  institutions,
including  state and national  banks,  state and federal  savings  associations,
credit unions,  certain  nonbanking  consumer  lenders,  and other  companies or
firms,  including  brokerage houses and mortgage  brokers,  that provide similar
services in Shelby  County with  significantly  larger  resources  than SCSB. In
particular, three commercial banks and one savings association compete with SCSB
in its  market  area.  To some  extent,  SCSB must also  compete  with banks and
savings associations in Indianapolis,  since media advertising from Indianapolis
reaches  Shelbyville.  SCSB  also  competes  with  money  market  funds and with
insurance companies with respect to its individual retirement accounts.




     Under current law, bank holding companies may acquire savings associations.
Savings  associations may also acquire banks under federal law. To date, several
bank holding company  acquisitions  of healthy  savings  associations in Indiana
have been completed. Affiliations between banks and healthy savings associations
based in Indiana may also increase the competition faced by SCSB and the Holding
Company.

     The primary  factors  influencing  competition  for  deposits  are interest
rates,  service and  convenience  of office  locations.  SCSB  competes for loan
originations  primarily  through  the  efficiency  and  quality of  services  it
provides  borrowers,  builders and realtors and through  interest rates and loan
fees it charges.  Competition  is affected by, among other  things,  the general
availability of lendable funds, general and local economic  conditions,  current
interest rate levels, and other factors that are not readily predictable.

     In   the   current    environment,    with   many   savings    associations
undercapitalized, SCSB will attempt to differentiate itself from other providers
of financial services by emphasizing its strong capital base.



                                   Regulation

General

      As a  federally  chartered,  SAIF-insured  savings  association,  SCSB  is
subject to extensive regulation by the OTS and the FDIC. For example,  SCSB must
obtain OTS  approval  before it may engage in certain  activities  and must file
reports with the OTS regarding its activities and financial  condition.  The OTS
periodically examines SCSB's books and records and, in conjunction with the FDIC
in certain situations,  has examination and enforcement powers. This supervision
and  regulation  are intended  primarily for the  protection  of depositors  and
federal deposit insurance funds. SCSB's semi- annual assessment owed to the OTS,
which is based upon a specified percentage of assets, is approximately $10,000.

      SCSB is also subject to federal and state regulation as to such matters as
loans to officers,  directors,  or principal  shareholders,  required  reserves,
limitations as to the nature and amount of its loans and investments, regulatory
approval of any merger or consolidation,  issuance or retirements of securities,
and limitations upon other aspects of banking  operations.  In addition,  SCSB's
activities  and  operations  are  subject  to a number of  additional  detailed,
complex and sometimes overlapping federal and state laws and regulations.  These
include  state  usury  and  consumer   credit  laws,   state  laws  relating  to
fiduciaries,  the Federal  Truth-In-Lending  Act and  Regulation  Z, the Federal
Equal Credit  Opportunity  Act and Regulation B, the Fair Credit  Reporting Act,
the Community Reinvestment Act, anti-redlining legislation and antitrust laws.

      The United States Congress is considering  legislation  that would require
all federal savings associations,  such as SCSB, to either convert to a national
bank  or a  state-chartered  bank  by a  specified  date  to be  determined.  In
addition,  under  the  legislation,  the  Holding  Company  likely  would not be
regulated  as a savings and loan  holding  company but rather as a bank  holding
company.  This  proposed  legislation  would  abolish the OTS and  transfer  its
functions  among the other federal  banking  regulators.  Certain aspects of the
legislation remain to be resolved and,  therefore,  no assurance can be given as
to whether or in what form the legislation  will be enacted or its effect on the
Holding Company and SCSB.




Savings and Loan Holding Company Regulation

      As the holding  company for SCSB,  the Holding  Company is  regulated as a
"non-diversified  savings and loan  holding  company"  within the meaning of the
Home Owners' Loan Act, as amended ("HOLA"),  and subject to regulatory oversight
of the Director of the OTS. As such, the Holding  Company is registered with the
OTS and  thereby  subject  to OTS  regulations,  examinations,  supervision  and
reporting  requirements.  As a subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company,
SCSB is subject to certain restrictions in its dealings with the Holding Company
and with other companies affiliated with the Holding Company.

      In general, the HOLA prohibits a savings and loan holding company, without
prior  approval of the Director of the OTS,  from  acquiring  control of another
savings  association or savings and loan holding  company or retaining more than
5% of the voting shares of a savings  association or of another  holding company
which is not a subsidiary.  The HOLA also restricts the ability of a director or
officer  of the  Holding  Company,  or any  person who owns more than 25% of the
Holding Company's stock,  from acquiring control of another savings  association
or savings and loan holding company without  obtaining the prior approval of the
Director of the OTS.

      The Holding Company's Board of Directors  presently intends to continue to
operate the Holding Company as a unitary savings and loan holding  company.  OTS
regulations  generally do not restrict the permissible  business activities of a
unitary savings and loan holding company.

      Notwithstanding  the above rules as to permissible  business activities of
unitary  savings  and  loan  holding  companies,   if  the  savings  association
subsidiary of such a holding  company fails to meet the Qualified  Thrift Lender
("QTL") test,  then such unitary  holding  company  would become  subject to the
activities  restrictions  applicable to multiple holding companies.  (Additional
restrictions  on securing  advances  from the FHLB also apply.) At September 30,
1997,  SCSB's asset  composition  was in excess of that required to qualify as a
Qualified Thrift Lender.

      If the  Holding  Company  were  to  acquire  control  of  another  savings
association other than through a merger or other business combination with SCSB,
the Holding Company would thereupon  become a multiple  savings and loan holding
company.  Except where such  acquisition is pursuant to the authority to approve
emergency  thrift  acquisitions  and where each subsidiary  savings  association
meets  the QTL  test,  the  activities  of the  Holding  Company  and any of its
subsidiaries  (other than SCSB or other subsidiary savings  associations)  would
thereafter be subject to further  restrictions.  The HOLA provides  that,  among
other things, no multiple savings and loan holding company or subsidiary thereof
which is not a savings  association  shall  commence or  continue  for a limited
period of time after  becoming a multiple  savings and loan  holding  company or
subsidiary  thereof,   any  business  activity  other  than  (i)  furnishing  or
performing  management  services  for a  subsidiary  savings  association,  (ii)
conducting an insurance agency or escrow business,  (iii) holding,  managing, or
liquidating assets owned by or acquired from a subsidiary  savings  association,
(iv) holding or managing  properties  used or occupied by a  subsidiary  savings
association,  (v) acting as trustee under deeds of trust,  (vi) those activities
previously  directly  authorized by the FSLIC by regulation as of March 5, 1987,
to be  engaged in by  multiple  holding  companies,  or (vii)  those  activities
authorized  by the Federal  Reserve  Board (the "FRB") as  permissible  for bank
holding  companies,  unless the Director of the OTS by  regulation  prohibits or
limits such activities for savings and loan holding companies.  Those activities
described in (vii) above must also be approved by the Director of the OTS before
a multiple holding company may engage in such activities.

      The  Director of the OTS may also  approve  acquisitions  resulting in the
formation of a multiple  savings and loan holding company which controls savings
associations  in more than one state,  if the multiple  savings and loan holding
company involved controls a savings  association which operated a home or branch
office in the state of the association to be acquired as of March 5, 1987, or if
the  laws of the  state in which  the  association  to be  acquired  is  located
specifically permit associations to be acquired by state-chartered  associations
or savings and loan holding  companies  located in the state where the acquiring
entity is located (or by a holding  company that controls  such  state-chartered
savings associations).  Also, the Director of the OTS may approve an acquisition
resulting in a multiple  savings and loan holding  company  controlling  savings
associations  in more than one  state in the case of  certain  emergency  thrift
acquisitions.




      Indiana  law  permits  federal  and  state  savings   association  holding
companies with their home offices  located outside of Indiana to acquire savings
associations  whose home offices are located in Indiana and savings  association
holding  companies with their principal  place of business in Indiana  ("Indiana
Savings  Association Holding Companies") upon receipt of approval by the Indiana
Department of Financial  Institutions.  Moreover,  Indiana  Savings  Association
Holding  Companies  may acquire  savings  associations  with their home  offices
located outside of Indiana and savings  association holding companies with their
principal place of business  located outside of Indiana upon receipt of approval
by the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions.

      No subsidiary  savings  association of a savings and loan holding  company
may declare or pay a dividend on its permanent or  nonwithdrawable  stock unless
it  first  gives  the  Director  of the  OTS 30  days  advance  notice  of  such
declaration  and payment.  Any dividend  declared  during such period or without
giving notice shall be invalid.

Federal Home Loan Bank System

      SCSB  is a  member  of the  FHLB of  Indianapolis,  which  consists  of 12
regional  FHLBs.  Each FHLB serves as a reserve or central  bank for its members
within its  assigned  region.  It is funded  primarily  from funds  deposited by
savings  associations  and  proceeds  derived  from  the  sale  of  consolidated
obligations of the FHLB system.  It makes loans to members  (i.e.,  advances) in
accordance with policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of
the FHLB.  All FHLB advances  must be fully secured by sufficient  collateral as
determined  by  the  FHLB.  The  Federal  Housing  Finance  Board  ("FHFB"),  an
independent   agency,   controls  the  FHLB  System,   including   the  FHLB  of
Indianapolis.

      As a member,  SCSB is required to purchase and maintain  stock in the FHLB
of  Indianapolis  in an  amount  equal to at least  1% of its  aggregate  unpaid
residential  mortgage loans, home purchase contracts,  or similar obligations at
the beginning of each year. At September 30, 1997, SCSB's investment in stock of
the FHLB of Indianapolis was $920,000.  The FHLB imposes various  limitations on
advances  such as limiting  the amount of certain  types of real  estate-related
collateral to 30% of a member's capital and limiting total advances to a member.
Interest rates charged for advances vary  depending  upon maturity,  the cost of
funds to the FHLB of Indianapolis and the purpose of the borrowing.

      The FHLBs are  required to provide  funds for the  resolution  of troubled
savings  associations  and to contribute to affordable  housing programs through
direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment
and  low-  and  moderate-income  housing  projects.   These  contributions  have
adversely  affected the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so
in the future.  For the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997,  dividends paid by
the FHLB of Indianapolis to SCSB totaled  approximately  $59,000,  for an annual
rate of 7.9%.

Insurance of Deposits

      Deposit Insurance.  The FDIC is an independent federal agency that insures
the  deposits,  up to  prescribed  statutory  limits,  of banks and  thrifts and
safeguards  the safety and soundness of the banking and thrift  industries.  The
FDIC  administers  two separate  insurance  funds,  the Bank Insurance Fund (the
"BIF") for  commercial  banks and state  savings  banks and the SAIF for savings
associations  such as SCSB and banks that have  acquired  deposits  from savings
associations.  The FDIC is required to maintain designated levels of reserves in
each fund.  As of September  30,  1996,  the reserves of the SAIF were below the
level  required  by  law,  primarily  because  a  significant   portion  of  the
assessments  paid into the SAIF  have been used to pay the cost of prior  thrift
failures,  while the  reserves of the BIF met the level  required by law in May,
1995.  However,  on September 30, 1996,  provisions designed to recapitalize the
SAIF and  eliminate the premium  disparity  between the BIF and SAIF were signed
into law. See "-- Assessments" below.




      Assessments.   The  FDIC  is  authorized  to  establish   separate  annual
assessment rates for deposit insurance for members of the BIF and members of the
SAIF.  The FDIC may  increase  assessment  rates for either fund if necessary to
restore the fund's  ratio of reserves  to insured  deposits to the target  level
within a reasonable  time and may  decrease  these rates if the target level has
been met. The FDIC has established a risk-based  assessment system for both SAIF
and BIF members.  Under this system,  assessments vary depending on the risk the
institution poses to its deposit insurance fund. An institution's  risk level is
determined  based on its  capital  level  and the  FDIC's  level of  supervisory
concern about the institution.

      On September 30, 1996, President Clinton signed into law legislation which
included  provisions  designed  to  recapitalize  the  SAIF  and  eliminate  the
significant  premium  disparity between the BIF and the SAIF. Under the new law,
SCSB was  charged  a  one-time  special  assessment  equal to $.657  per $100 in
assessable  deposits at March 31, 1995. SCSB recognized this one-time assessment
as a non-recurring operating expense of $332,000 ($200,000 after tax) during the
three-month  period ending  September 30, 1996, and SCSB paid this assessment in
November 1996.  The  assessment was fully  deductible for both federal and state
income tax purposes.  Beginning January 1, 1997, SCSB's annual deposit insurance
premium  was  reduced  from  .23% to .0644% of total  assessable  deposits.  BIF
institutions pay lower assessments than comparable SAIF institutions because BIF
institutions  pay only 20% of the rate being paid by SAIF  institutions on their
deposits  with  respect  to  obligations   issued  by  the   federally-chartered
corporation which provided some of the financing to resolve the thrift crisis in
the 1980's  ("FICO").  The 1996 law also provides for the merger of the SAIF and
the BIF by 1999,  but not  until  such  time as bank  and  thrift  charters  are
combined.  Until the  charters  are  combined,  savings  associations  with SAIF
deposits may not transfer  deposits into the BIF system  without  paying various
exit and entrance fees, and SAIF  institutions  will continue to pay higher FICO
assessments.  Such exit and entrance fees need not be paid if a SAIF institution
converts to a bank charter or merges with a bank, as long as the resulting  bank
continues to pay  applicable  insurance  assessments to the SAIF, and as long as
certain other conditions are met.

Savings Association Regulatory Capital

      Currently,  savings  associations  are subject to three  separate  minimum
capital-to-assets  requirements:  (i) a leverage limit,  (ii) a tangible capital
requirement,  and (iii) a risk-based  capital  requirement.  The leverage  limit
requires that savings  associations  maintain  "core  capital" of at least 3% of
total assets. Core capital is generally defined as common  shareholders'  equity
(including retained income), noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related
surplus,   certain  minority  equity   interests  in  subsidiaries,   qualifying
supervisory  goodwill,  purchased mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit
card relationships  (subject to certain limits) less nonqualifying  intangibles.
Under the tangible  capital  requirement,  a savings  association  must maintain
tangible  capital (core  capital less all  intangible  assets  except  purchased
mortgage  servicing  rights which may be included  after making the  above-noted
adjustment  in an amount up to 100% of  tangible  capital)  of at least  1.5% of
total assets.  Under the risk-based  capital  requirements,  a minimum amount of
capital must be maintained by a savings  association to account for the relative
risks inherent in the type and amount of assets held by the savings association.
The risk-based capital  requirement  requires a savings  association to maintain
capital  (defined  generally  for these  purposes as core  capital  plus general
valuation  allowances  and  permanent or maturing  capital  instruments  such as
preferred stock and subordinated debt less assets required to be deducted) equal
to 8.0% of  risk-weighted  assets.  Assets  are ranked as to risk in one of four
categories  (0-100%).  A  credit  risk-free  asset,  such as cash,  requires  no
risk-based  capital,  while an asset with a significant  credit risk,  such as a
non-accrual  loan,  requires  a  risk  factor  of  100%.   Moreover,  a  savings
association must deduct from capital,  for purposes of meeting the core capital,
tangible capital and risk-based capital  requirements,  its entire investment in
and loans to a subsidiary  engaged in activities not  permissible for a national
bank (other than  exclusively  agency  activities  for its customers or mortgage
banking  subsidiaries).  At September 30, 1997,  SCSB was in compliance with all
capital requirements imposed by law.




      The OTS has  promulgated  a rule  which  sets  forth the  methodology  for
calculating an interest rate risk  component to be used by savings  associations
in calculating  regulatory  capital.  The OTS has delayed the  implementation of
this rule, however.  The rule requires savings  associations with "above normal"
interest rate risk  (institutions  whose portfolio equity would decline in value
by more than 2% of assets in the event of a hypothetical 200-basis-point move in
interest rates) to maintain  additional capital for interest rate risk under the
risk-based capital framework. If the OTS were to implement this regulation, SCSB
would not be required to maintain additional capital at September 30, 1997 under
the terms of the OTS proposed interest rate risk rule.

      The  following  is a summary  of SCSB's  regulatory  capital  and  capital
requirements at September 30, 1997:

                                   Tangible        Core       Risk-based
                                   capital       capital        capital
 Regulatory capital                 $5,593        $5,593        $5,985
 Minimum capital requirement         1,327         2,653         5,048
 Excess capital                     $4,266        $2,940       $   937
 Regulatory capital ratio              6.3%          6.3%          9.5%
 Minimum capital ratio                 1.5%          3.0%          8.0%

      If an association is not in compliance with the capital requirements,  the
OTS is required to prohibit asset growth and to impose a capital  directive that
may  restrict,  among other  things,  the  payment of  dividends  and  officers'
compensation. In addition, the OTS and the FDIC generally are authorized to take
enforcement actions against a savings association that fails to meet its capital
requirements. These actions may include restricting the operations activities of
the association,  imposing a capital directive, cease and desist order, or civil
money  penalties,  or imposing harsher measures such as appointing a receiver or
conservator or forcing the association to merge into another institution.

Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action

      The  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation   Improvement  Act  of  1991
("FedICIA")   requires,   among  other  things,  that  federal  bank  regulatory
authorities take "prompt corrective action" with respect to institutions that do
not meet minimum capital requirements.  For these purposes,  FedICIA establishes
five capital tiers: well capitalized, adequately capitalized,  undercapitalized,
significantly  undercapitalized,  and critically undercapitalized.  At September
30, 1997,  SCSB was  categorized as "adequately  capitalized,"  meaning that its
total risk-based  capital ratio exceeded 8%, its Tier I risk-based capital ratio
exceeded  4%,  its  leverage  ratio  exceeded  4%,  and it was not  subject to a
regulatory order, agreement or directive to meet and maintain a specific capital
level for any capital measure.

      The FDIC may order savings associations which have insufficient capital to
take corrective actions. For example, a savings association which is categorized
as  "undercapitalized"  would be  subject  to  growth  limitations  and would be
required  to submit a capital  restoration  plan,  and a  holding  company  that
controls  such a savings  association  would be required to  guarantee  that the
savings   association   complies  with  the  restoration  plan.   "Significantly
undercapitalized"   savings   associations   would  be  subject  to   additional
restrictions.  Savings  associations  deemed  by  the  FDIC  to  be  "critically
undercapitalized"  would  be  subject  to  the  appointment  of  a  receiver  or
conservator.

Dividend Limitations

      An OTS regulation imposes limitations upon all "capital  distributions" by
savings  associations,  including cash dividends,  payments by an association to
repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares,  payments to shareholders of another
institution  in a  cash-out  merger  and  other  distributions  charged  against
capital.  The regulation  establishes a three-tiered system of regulation,  with
the greatest  flexibility  being afforded to  well-capitalized  associations.  A
savings  association  which has total  capital  (immediately  prior to and after
giving effect to the capital  distribution)  that is at least equal to its fully
phased-in  capital   requirements  would  be  a  Tier  1  institution  ("Tier  1
Institution").  An  association  that has total  capital  at least  equal to its
minimum  capital  requirements,  but  less  than  its  fully  phased-in  capital
requirements,  would  be  a  Tier  2  institution  ("Tier  2  Institution").  An
institution  having  total  capital  that  is  less  than  its  minimum  capital
requirements would be a Tier 3 institution ("Tier 3 Institution").  However,  an
institution which otherwise  qualifies as a Tier 1 Institution may be designated
by the OTS as a Tier 2 Institution  or Tier 3 Institution  if the OTS determines
that the  institution  is "in need of more  than  normal  supervision."  SCSB is
currently a Tier 1 Institution.




      A Tier 1 Institution  may,  after prior notice but without the approval of
the OTS, make capital  distributions during a calendar year up to the greater of
(a) 100% of its net income to date during the calendar year plus the amount that
would  reduce by one-half its "surplus  capital  ratio" at the  beginning of the
calendar year (the smallest excess over its capital requirements), or (b) 75% of
its net income over the most recent  four-quarter  period. Any additional amount
of capital distributions would require prior regulatory approval.

      The OTS has  proposed  revisions to these  regulations  which would permit
savings  associations  to declare  dividends in amounts  which would assure that
they remain adequately  capitalized following the dividend declaration.  Savings
associations  in a holding company system which are rated Camel 1 or 2 and which
are not in  troubled  condition  would need to file a prior  notice with the OTS
concerning such dividend declaration.

Liquidity

      For each  calendar  month,  SCSB is required to maintain an average  daily
balance of liquid assets (cash,  certain time  deposits,  bankers'  acceptances,
specified United States Government, state or federal agency obligations,  shares
of certain  mutual funds and certain  corporate  debt  securities and commercial
paper)  equal to an  amount  not less  than a  specified  percentage  of its net
withdrawable  deposit  accounts  plus  short-term  borrowings.   This  liquidity
requirement may be changed from time to time by the OTS to any amount within the
range of 4% to 10% depending  upon economic  conditions and the savings flows of
member  institutions.  The OTS recently  reduced the level of liquid assets that
must be held by a  savings  association  from 5% to 4% of the  associations  net
withdrawable  accounts plus short-term  borrowings  based upon the average daily
balance of such  liquid  assets for each  quarter of the  associations's  fiscal
year. The OTS may impose monetary penalties upon savings  associations that fail
to comply with those liquidity requirements.  The OTS eliminated the requirement
that each savings  association  maintain an average  daily balance of short-term
liquid assets of 1% of the total of its net  withdrawable  deposit  accounts and
short-term  borrowings  during the preceding  calendar month.  The daily average
liquidity   of  SCSB  for   September,   1997  was  5.3%  which   exceeded   the
then-applicable 5% liquidity requirement. Its average short-term liquidity ratio
for September,  1997,was 8.3%. SCSB has never been subject to monetary penalties
for failure to meet its liquidity requirements.

Limitations on Rates Paid for Deposits

      Regulations  promulgated by the FDIC pursuant to FedICIA limit the ability
of insured  depository  institutions  to accept,  renew or roll over deposits by
offering  rates of interest which are  significantly  higher than the prevailing
rates of interest on deposits offered by other insured  depository  institutions
having the same type of charter in the  institution's  normal market area. Under
these regulations,  "well-capitalized" depository institutions may accept, renew
or  roll  such  deposits  over  without  restriction,  "adequately  capitalized"
depository  institutions  may accept,  renew or roll such  deposits  over with a
waiver from the FDIC (subject to certain  restrictions on payments of rates) and
"undercapitalized"  depository  institutions may not accept,  renew or roll such
deposits  over.  The  regulations  contemplate  that  the  definitions  of "well
capitalized,"  "adequately  capitalized" and "undercapitalized" will be the same
as the  definition  adopted by the agencies to implement the  corrective  action
provisions of FedICIA.  SCSB does not believe that these regulations will have a
materially adverse effect on its current operations.

Safety and Soundness Standards

      On February 2, 1995, the federal banking agencies adopted final safety and
soundness  standards for all insured  depository  institutions.  The  standards,
which were issued in the form of guidelines rather than  regulations,  relate to
internal   controls,   information   systems,   internal  audit  systems,   loan
underwriting  and  documentation,  compensation  and interest rate exposure.  In
general,  the standards are designed to assist the federal  banking  agencies in
identifying and addressing  problems at insured depository  institutions  before
capital becomes impaired.  If an institution fails to meet these standards,  the
appropriate  federal  banking  agency may  require the  institution  to submit a
compliance  plan.  Failure to submit a compliance plan may result in enforcement
proceedings.  On August 27,  1996,  the  federal  banking  agencies  added asset
quality and earning standards to the safety and soundness guidelines.




Real Estate Lending Standards

      OTS  regulations  require  savings  associations to establish and maintain
written  internal  real estate  lending  policies.  Each  association's  lending
policies  must  be  consistent  with  safe  and  sound  banking   practices  and
appropriate  to the size of the  association  and the  nature  and  scope of its
operations.   The  policies  must  establish   loan  portfolio   diversification
standards;  establish prudent underwriting  standards,  including  loan-to-value
limits, that are clear and measurable;  establish loan administration procedures
for the  association's  real  estate  portfolio;  and  establish  documentation,
approval,   and  reporting   requirements   to  monitor   compliance   with  the
association's  real estate  lending  policies.  The  association's  written real
estate lending policies must be reviewed and approved by the association's Board
of Directors at least annually. Further, each association is expected to monitor
conditions  in its real  estate  market  to  ensure  that its  lending  policies
continue to be appropriate for current market conditions.

Loans to One Borrower

      Under  OTS  regulations,  SCSB may not make a loan or  extend  credit to a
single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of its unimpaired  capital
and surplus.  Additional amounts may be lent, not in excess of 10% of unimpaired
capital and surplus,  if such loans or extensions of credit are fully secured by
readily marketable collateral,  including certain debt and equity securities but
not including real estate.  In some cases, a savings  association may lend up to
30 percent of  unimpaired  capital and surplus to one  borrower  for purposes of
developing domestic residential housing, provided that the association meets its
regulatory  capital  requirements  and the OTS authorizes the association to use
this expanded  lending  authority.  At September 30, 1997, SCSB did not have any
loans or  extensions  of credit to a single or  related  group of  borrowers  in
excess of its lending limits.

Qualified Thrift Lender

      Savings   associations  must  meet  a  QTL  test.  If  SCSB  maintains  an
appropriate   level  of  qualified  thrift   investments   ("QTIs")   (primarily
residential    mortgages   and   related    investments,    including    certain
mortgage-related  securities) and otherwise qualify as a QTL, SCSB will continue
to enjoy full borrowing  privileges from the FHLB of Indianapolis.  The required
percentage  of QTIs is 65% of  portfolio  assets  (defined  as all assets  minus
intangible  assets,  property used by the association in conducting its business
and liquid assets equal to 10% of total assets). Certain assets are subject to a
percentage  limitation  of  20%  of  portfolio  assets.  In  addition,   savings
associations may include shares of stock of the FHLBs,  FNMA, and FHLMC as QTIs.
Compliance  with the QTL test is  determined  on a monthly  basis in nine out of
every twelve months.  As of September 30, 1997,  SCSB was in compliance with its
QTL requirement, with approximately 69% of its assets invested in QTIs.

      A savings association which fails to meet the QTL test must either convert
to a bank (but its deposit  insurance  assessments and payments will be those of
and paid to the SAIF) or be subject to the following  penalties:  (i) it may not
enter into any new activity except for those permissible for a national bank and
for a savings  association;  (ii) its branching  activities  shall be limited to
those  of a  national  bank;  (iii) it shall  not be  eligible  for any new FHLB
advances; and (iv) it shall be bound by regulations applicable to national banks
respecting  payment of  dividends.  Three years  after  failing the QTL test the
association must (i) dispose of any investment or activity not permissible for a
national  bank and a savings  association  and (ii) repay all  outstanding  FHLB
advances.  If such a savings  association  is  controlled  by a savings and loan
holding  company,  then such holding  company  must,  within a  prescribed  time
period,  become  registered as a bank holding  company and become subject to all
rules  and  regulations   applicable  to  bank  holding   companies   (including
restrictions as to the scope of permissible business activities).

Acquisitions or Dispositions and Branching

      The Bank  Holding  Company  Act  specifically  authorizes  a bank  holding
company, upon receipt of appropriate regulatory approvals, to acquire control of
any savings association or holding company thereof wherever located.  Similarly,
a savings and loan  holding  company may  acquire  control of a bank.  Moreover,
federal  savings  associations  may  acquire  or  be  acquired  by  any  insured
depository  institution.   Regulations  promulgated  by  the  FRB  restrict  the
branching authority of savings associations  acquired by bank holding companies.
Savings  associations  acquired by bank  holding  companies  may be converted to
banks if they continue to pay SAIF premiums,  but as such they become subject to
branching and activity restrictions applicable to banks.




      Subject  to  certain  exceptions,  commonly-controlled  banks and  savings
associations  must reimburse the FDIC for any losses suffered in connection with
a failed  bank or  savings  association  affiliate.  Institutions  are  commonly
controlled  if one is owned by another or if both are owned by the same  holding
company.  Such claims by the FDIC under this provision are subordinate to claims
of depositors,  secured creditors,  and holders of subordinated debt, other than
affiliates.

      The OTS has adopted  regulations which permit nationwide  branching to the
extent  permitted by federal  statute.  Federal  statutes permit federal savings
associations to branch outside of their home state if the association  meets the
domestic  building  and loan  test in  ss.7701(a)(19)  of the Code or the  asset
composition  test of ss.7701(c) of the Code.  Branching that would result in the
formation of a multiple  savings and loan holding  company  controlling  savings
associations  in more  than one  state is  permitted  if the law of the state in
which the savings association to be acquired is located specifically  authorizes
acquisitions of its state-chartered associations by state-chartered associations
or their  holding  companies  in the state where the  acquiring  association  or
holding company is located. Moreover, Indiana banks and savings associations are
permitted  to  acquire  other  Indiana  banks and  savings  associations  and to
establish branches throughout Indiana.

      Finally,  The Riegle-Neal  Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act
of 1994 (the "Riegle-Neal  Act") permits bank holding companies to acquire banks
in other  states and,  with state  consent  and subject to certain  limitations,
allows banks to acquire  out-of-state  branches either through merger or de novo
expansion.  The State of Indiana  enacted  legislation  establishing  interstate
branching  provisions for Indiana  state-chartered  banks  consistent with those
established by the Riegle-Neal Act (the "Indiana  Branching  Law").  The Indiana
Branching Law authorizes Indiana banks to branch interstate by merger or de novo
expansion,  provided that such  transactions  are not permitted to  out-of-state
banks  unless the laws of their home  states  permit  Indiana  banks to merge or
establish de novo banks on a reciprocial basis. The Indiana Branching Law became
effective March 15, 1996.

Transactions with Affiliates

      SCSB is subject to Sections 22(h), 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act,
which restrict financial  transactions  between banks and affiliated  companies.
The statute limits credit transactions between a bank or savings association and
its executive  officers and its affiliates,  prescribes terms and conditions for
bank affiliate  transactions deemed to be consistent with safe and sound banking
practices,   and  restricts  the  types  of  collateral  security  permitted  in
connection with a bank's extension of credit to an affiliate.

Federal Securities Law

      The shares of Common Stock of the Holding  Company are registered with the
SEC under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"). The
Holding  Company is  subject to the  information,  proxy  solicitation,  insider
trading restrictions and other requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules of the
SEC thereunder.  If the Holding Company has fewer than 300 shareholders,  it may
deregister  its  shares  under  the 1934  Act and  cease  to be  subject  to the
foregoing requirements.

      Shares of Common Stock held by persons who are  affiliates  of the Holding
Company may not be resold without  registration  unless sold in accordance  with
the resale restrictions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act").  If the Holding  Company meets the current public  information
requirements  under Rule 144, each affiliate of the Holding Company who complies
with the  other  conditions  of Rule  144  (including  those  that  require  the
affiliate's  sale to be aggregated  with those of certain other persons) will be
able to sell in the public market, without registration,  a number of shares not
to exceed, in any three-month  period,  the greater of (i) 1% of the outstanding
shares of the Holding  Company or (ii) the average  weekly  volume of trading in
such shares during the preceding four calendar weeks.




Community Reinvestment Act Matters

      Federal law requires  that ratings of  depository  institutions  under the
Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 ("CRA") be disclosed. The disclosure includes
both a  four-unit  descriptive  rating --  outstanding,  satisfactory,  needs to
improve,  and  substantial  noncompliance  --  and a  written  evaluation  of an
institution's  performance.  Each FHLB is required  to  establish  standards  of
community  investment  or service that its members must  maintain for  continued
access to long-term  advances from the FHLBs.  The standards take into account a
member's  performance under the CRA and its record of lending to first-time home
buyers.  The OTS has designated  SCSB's record of meeting community credit needs
as satisfactory.




                                    Taxation

         Federal Taxation

         The Holding  Company and its  subsidiary  file a  consolidated  federal
income tax return on the accrual basis for each fiscal year ending September 30.
The  consolidated  federal  income  tax  return  has the  effect of  eliminating
intercompany   distributions,   including  dividends,   in  the  computation  of
consolidated  taxable income.  Income of the Holding Company generally would not
be taken into account in  determining  the bad debt  deduction  allowed to SCSB,
regardless  of  whether a  consolidated  tax return is filed.  However,  certain
"functionally  related"  losses of the Holding  Company  would be required to be
taken into  account in  determining  the  permitted  bad debt  deduction  which,
depending  upon  the  particular  circumstances,   could  reduce  the  bad  debt
deduction.  SCSB's  federal income tax returns have not been audited in the last
five years.

         Historically,  savings associations,  such as SCSB, have been permitted
to compute bad debt deductions  using either the bank  experience  method or the
percentage of taxable income method. However, for years beginning after December
31, 1995,  SCSB will no longer be able to use the  percentage of taxable  income
method of computing its allocable tax bad debt deduction.  SCSB will be required
to compute its allocable  deduction using the experience  method. As a result of
the repeal of the percentage of taxable income method, reserves taken after 1987
using the  percentage  of taxable  income method  generally  must be included in
future taxable income over a six-year  period,  although a two-year delay may be
permitted for institutions meeting a residential mortgage loan origination test.
In  addition,  the  pre-1988  reserve,  in which no  deferred  taxes  have  been
recorded,  will not have to be recaptured  into income unless (i) SCSB no longer
qualifies  as a bank under the Code,  or (ii) excess  dividends  are paid out by
SCSB.

         Depending  on the  composition  of its items of income and  expense,  a
savings  institution  may be subject to the  alternative  minimum tax. A savings
institution must pay an alternative  minimum tax equal to the amount (if any) by
which 20% of  alternative  minimum  taxable  income  ("AMTI"),  as reduced by an
exemption  varying with AMTI,  exceeds the regular tax due. AMTI equals  regular
taxable  income   increased  or  decreased  by  certain  tax   preferences   and
adjustments,  including depreciation  deductions in excess of that allowable for
alternative  minimum tax purposes,  tax-exempt interest on most private activity
bonds  issued  after  August 7, 1986  (reduced by any related  interest  expense
disallowed  for  regular  tax  purposes),  the  amount  of the bad debt  reserve
deduction  claimed in excess of the deduction based on the experience method and
75% of the excess of adjusted current earnings over AMTI (before this adjustment
and before any alternative tax net operating loss).  AMTI may be reduced only up
to 90% by net operating loss carryovers,  but alternative  minimum tax paid that
is  attributable  to most  preferences  (although  not to  post-August  7,  1986
tax-exempt interest) can be credited against regular tax due in later years.

         On August 20, 1996, the "Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996" was
passed into law. One  provision of this act repeals the special bad debt reserve
method for thrift  institutions  currently  provided  for in Section  593 of the
Internal Revenue Code ("IRC").  The provision  requires thrifts to recapture any
reserves  accumulated  after 1987 but  generally  forgives  taxes  owed.  Thrift
institutions  have been given six years to  account  for the  recaptured  excess
reserves, beginning with the first taxable year after 1995, and are permitted to
delay the timing of this  recapture for one or two years subject to whether they
meet certain residential loan test requirements.




         State Taxation

         SCSB is subject to Indiana's Financial  Institutions Tax ("FIT"), which
is imposed at a flat rate of 8.5% on "adjusted  gross income."  "Adjusted  gross
income," for purposes of FIT,  begins with taxable  income as defined by Section
63 of the Code,  and thus,  incorporates  federal  tax law to the extent that it
affects  the  computation  of taxable  income.  Federal  taxable  income is then
adjusted by several Indiana modifications.  Other applicable state taxes include
generally applicable sales and use taxes plus real and personal property taxes.

         SCSB's  state income tax returns have not been audited in the last five
years.

         Current Accounting Issues

         Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 128 ("SFAS  128"),
"Earnings  per  Share," was issued in February  1997 and is  effective  for both
interim and annual fiscal periods ending after December 15, 1997. Early adoption
is  not  permitted.  SFAS  128  establishes  new  standards  for  computing  and
presenting  earnings  per share  ("EPS").  Specifically,  SFAS 128  replaces the
presentation  of primary EPS with a  presentation  of basic EPS,  requires  dual
presentation  of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income  statement  for
all entities with complex capital  structures and requires a  reconciliation  of
the numerator and  denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and
denominator of the diluted EPS  computation.  Management has determined that the
adoption  of SFAS  128  will  not have a  material  effect  on the  consolidated
financial statements.

         Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 130 ("SFAS  130"),
"Comprehensive Income", was issued in June 1997 and becomes effective for fiscal
periods beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS 130 requires reclassification of
earlier  financial  statements for comparative  purposes.  SFAS No. 130 requires
that  changes in the  amounts  of  certain  items,  including  foreign  currency
translation  adjustments  and gain and losses on certain  securities be shown in
the financial  statements.  SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific  format for
the  financial  statement in which  comprehensive  income is reported,  but does
require that an amount  representing total  comprehensive  income be reported in
that statement. Management has not yet quantified the effect of the new standard
on the consolidated financial statements.

         Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 131 ("SFAS  131"),
"Disclosures  about  Segments of an  Enterprise  and Related  Information,"  was
issued in June 1997 and is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December
15, 1997. This statement will change the way public companies report information
about  segments  of their  business in their  annual  financial  statements  and
requires them to report selected segment  information in their quarterly reports
issued to  shareholders.  It also  requires  entity-wide  disclosures  about the
products and  services an entity  provides,  the material  countries in which it
holds assets and reports revenues,  and its major customers.  Management has not
yet  quantified  the effect of this new standard on the  consolidated  financial
statements.

Item 2.       Properties.

     At September 30, 1997,  SCSB conducted its business from its main office at

                                     PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Shareholder Matters.

     SCSB  converted  from a mutual savings bank to a federal stock savings bank
effective October 17, 1991 and simultaneously  formed a savings and loan holding
company,  Shelby County Bancorp. The Holding Company's common stock, without par
value ("Common Stock"), is traded in the over-the-counter  market. The following
table sets forth the high and low bid prices for the  quarters  indicated.  Such
over-the-counter quotations,  garnered through pink sheets, reflect inter-dealer
prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may not necessarily
represent actual transactions.

     As of December 5, 1997, the Holding Company had 228 shareholders of record.
It is  currently  the policy of the  Holding  Company's  Board of  Directors  to
continue to pay quarterly dividends, but any future dividends are subject to the
Board's discretion based on its consideration of the Holding Company's operating
results,  financial condition,  capital,  income tax considerations,  regulatory
restrictions and other factors.

     Since  the  Holding   Company  has  no  independent   operations  or  other
subsidiaries  to generate  income,  its ability to  accumulate  earnings for the
payment of cash  dividends to its  shareholders  is directly  dependent upon the
ability of SCSB to pay dividends to the Holding Company.

     Under OTS regulations,  a converted savings  association may not declare or
pay a cash  dividend  if the effect  would be to reduce its net worth  below the
amount required for the liquidation account created at the time it converted. In
addition,  under OTS regulations,  the extent to which a savings association may
make  a  "capital  distribution,"  which  includes,  among  other  things,  cash
dividends, will depend upon in which one of three categories,  based upon levels
of capital,  that savings association is classified.  SCSB is now and expects to
continue to be a "tier one  institution" and therefore would be able to pay cash
dividends to the Holding  Company during any calendar year up to 100% of its net
income  during that  calendar year plus the amount that would reduce by one half
its "surplus  capital ratio" (the excess over its capital  requirements)  at the
beginning  of the  calendar  year.  See  "Regulation  --  Capital  Distributions
Regulation" in Item 1 hereof. Prior notice of any dividend to be paid by SCSB to
the Holding Company will have to be given to the OTS.




     Income of SCSB  appropriated  to bad debt reserves and deducted for federal
income tax  purposes is not  available  for payment of cash  dividends  or other
distributions to the Holding Company without the payment of federal income taxes
by SCSB on the amount of such income  deemed  removed  from the  reserves at the
then-current income tax rate. At September 30, 1997,  approximately $1.1 million
of SCSB's retained  income  represented bad debt deductions for which no federal
income tax provision had been made. See  "Taxation--Federal  Taxation" in Item 1
hereof.

     Unlike SCSB, generally there is no regulatory restriction on the payment of
dividends by the Holding Company,  subject to the  determination by the Director
of the OTS that  there  is  reasonable  cause to  believe  that the  payment  of
dividends  constitutes  a serious  risk to the  financial  safety,  soundness or
stability of SCSB. Indiana law, however, would prohibit the Holding Company from
paying a dividend if, after giving effect to the payment of that  dividend,  the
Holding  Company  would not be able to pay its debts as they  become  due in the
usual  course of business or the Holding  Company's  total  assets would be less
than the sum of its total  liabilities  plus  preferential  rights of holders of
preferred stock, if any.

     On April 17, 1995, the Board of Directors of the Holding Company declared a
dividend of one common share  purchase  right (a "Right" or  "Rights")  for each
outstanding  share of Common  Stock.  The dividend was paid on April 30, 1995 to
the  shareholders  of record as of April 17, 1995. If and when the Rights become
exercisable,  each Right will entitle the registered holder to purchase from the
Holding  Company one Common Share at a purchase  price of $70.00 (the  "Purchase
Price"),  subject to adjustment as described in the Rights Agreement between the
Holding Company and Bank One,  Indianapolis,  NA (the "Rights  Agreement") which
specifies  the  terms of the  Rights.  The  Rights  will be  represented  by the
outstanding Common Share  certificates and the Rights cannot be bought,  sold or
otherwise  traded  separately  from the Common  Shares  until the  "Distribution
Date," which is the earliest to occur of (i) 10 calendar days following a public
announcement  that a person or group (an  "Acquiring  Person")  has (a) acquired
beneficial  ownership  of 15% or more of the  outstanding  Common  Shares or (b)
become the beneficial  owner of an amount of the outstanding  Common Shares (but
not less than 10%) which the Board of Directors determines to be substantial and
which  ownership  the  Board  of  Directors  determines  is  intended  or may be
reasonably anticipated, in general, to cause the Holding Company to take actions
determined  by the Board of  Directors to be not in the Holding  Company's  best
long-term  interests (an "Adverse  Person"),  or (ii) 10 business days following
the  commencement  or  announcement  of an  intention  to make a tender offer or
exchange  offer  the  consummation  of  which  would  result  in the  beneficial
ownership by a person or group of 30% or more of such outstanding Common Shares.

         The Rights have  certain  anti-takeover  effects.  The Rights may cause
substantial  dilution to a person or group that  attempts to acquire the Holding
Company on terms not approved by the Board of Directors of the Holding  Company,
except pursuant to an offer conditioned on a substantial  number of Rights being
acquired.  The Rights  should not  interfere  with any merger or other  business
combination  approved by the Board of Directors since the Rights may be redeemed
by the  Holding  Company  at $.01 per  Right  prior to the  tenth  calendar  day
following the date of a public  announcement that a person or group has becom an
Acquiring Person.

     The  information  required by this item is incorporated by reference to the
material under the heading "Selected Consolidated Financial Data" on pages 3 and

Annual Report").

        of Operation.

     The information required by this item is incorporated by reference to pages
6 through 13 of the Shareholder Annual Report.

Item 7A.  Quantitative  and  Qualitative  Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and
          Results of Operation.




     The OTS required each thrift  institution to calculate the estimated change
in the  institution's  net portfolio  value ("NPV")  assuming an  instantaneous,
parallel shift in the Treasure yield curve of 100 to 400 basis points whether up
or down in 100 basis point  increments.  NPV  represents  the sum of future cash
flows of assets discounted to present value less the sum of future cash flows of
liabilities discounted to present value. The OTS permits institutions to utilize
the  OTS'  model,  which is  based  upon  data  submitted  in the  institution's
quarterly thrift financial reports.

     In estimating the NPV of mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities, the
OTS model utilizes various price  indications and prepayment rates. At September
30, 1997,  these price  indications  varied from 70.80 to 120.86 for  fixed-rate
mortgages  and  mortgage-backed  securities  and varied from 88.74 to 109.03 for
adjustable rate mortgages and mortgage-backed  securities.  Prepayment rates for
September 30, 1997 ranged from a CPR of 5% to a CPR of 77%.

     The value of deposit  accounts appears on both the asset and liability side
of the NPV calculation of the OTS model. In estimating the value of certificates
of deposit accounts,  ("CDs"), retail price estimates represent the value of the
liability implied by the CD and reflect the difference between the CD coupon and
secondary-market  CD  rates.  As of  September  30,  1997,  the  retail CD price
assumptions  varied  from  74.65 to  123.18.  The  retail CD  intangible  prices
represent  the value of the  "customer  relationship"  due to the rollover of CD
deposits and are an  intangible  asset for an  institution.  As of September 30,
1997, the retail CD intangible price assumptions varied from .01 to .72.

     Other deposit accounts such as transaction  accounts,  money market deposit
accounts,  statement  savings  accounts and  non-interest  bearing  accounts are
valued at 100% of their  respective  outstanding  balances in all nine  interest
rate scenarios on the liability side of the OTS model.  On the asset side of the
model,  intangible  prices  are  used to  reflect  the  value  of the  "customer
relationship"  of the various  types of deposit  accounts.  As of September  30,
1997,  the  intangible  prices for  transaction  accounts,  money market deposit
accounts, passbook accounts and non-interest-bearing accounts varied from (2.20)
to 20.16, (.60) to 11.30, (.93) to 16.49 and 3.50 to 17.49, respectively.

         The  following  table  sets  forth  the  institution's   interest  rate
sensitivity of NPV as of September 30, 1997, (in thousands).

     Various strategies are in place to control SCSB's exposure to interest rate
risk.  SCSB's  senior  management   personnel  are  primarily   responsible  for
management  of  the  Corporation's   exposure  to  interest  rate  risk.  Senior
management  personnel  monitors the interest  rate risk position to minimize its
potential  negative  effects  on  SCSB's  financial  condition.  As its  primary
strategy  to  control  the  potential  negative  effects of SCSB's  market  risk
exposure,  senior  management  personnel  actively  adjusts its interest earning
asset and interest bearing liability composition and pricing.
