Business. - ----------------- General Delphos Citizens Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") completed its initial public offering of 2,047,631 shares of common stock on November 20, 1996, in connection with the conversion of Citizens Federal Savings and Loan Association of Delphos, now known as Citizens Bank of Delphos (the "Bank"). The Company received $20,476,310 from this initial public offering before offering expenses of $672,482. The Company utilized $9,940,000 of the net proceeds of the initial public offering to acquire all of the issued and outstanding stock of the Bank. The Company, as a unitary savings and loan holding company, is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS"), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company's executive offices are located at the home office of the Bank at 114 East 3rd Street, Delphos, Ohio 45833. The Bank's principal business is to operate a community-oriented savings bank. The Bank attracts retail deposits from the general public in the area surrounding its office and invests those deposits, together with funds generated from operations, primarily in fixed-rate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and investment and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank invests, on a limited basis, in multi-family mortgage, commercial real estate, construction and land and consumer loans. The Bank's revenues are derived principally from interest on its mortgage loans, and interest and dividends on its investment and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits and principal and interest payments on loans and securities. On August 25, 2000 the Company entered into an Affiliation Agreement with United Bancshares, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the state of Ohio. Pursuant to the Affiliation Agreement, subject to many conditions set forth in the Affiliation Agreement, the Company would merge with and into United Bancshares, with United Bancshares as the resulting entity ("Merger"). Following consummation of the Merger, the Bank would be held as a wholly owned subsidiary of United Bancshares. The Merger is subject to the satisfaction of many conditions, including but not limited to receipt of all applicable regulatory approvals and the approval of the shareholders of each of the Company and United Bancshares. Market Area and Competition The Bank's primary deposit gathering area is concentrated in Delphos and the other communities surrounding its office, while its lending activities primarily include areas throughout Allen, Putnam and Van Wert Counties in Northwestern Ohio. The tri-county area includes the city of Lima, Ohio, which has a population of approximately 45,000 and is located approximately 15 miles southeast of Delphos in Allen County. The Bank's market area is located within 250 miles of several of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States, including, Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Indianapolis. There are approximately 150 manufacturing firms located in the tri-county area and manufacturing accounts for one-third of the employment sector. Wholesale and retail trade is the second largest employment sector in the tri-county area, accounting for 24% of employment. The Bank's primary market area is a competitive market for financial services and the Bank faces significant competition both in making loans and in attracting deposits. The Bank faces direct competition from a number of financial institutions operating in its market area, many with a state-wide or regional presence, and in some cases, a national presence. Many of these financial institutions are significantly larger and have greater financial resources than the Bank. The Bank's competition for loans comes principally from savings institutions, mortgage banking companies, commercial banks and credit unions. Its most direct competition for deposits has historically come from savings institutions and commercial banks. In addition, the Bank faces increasing competition for deposits and other financial 3 products from non-bank institutions such as brokerage firms and insurance companies in such areas as short-term money market funds, corporate and government securities funds, mutual funds and annuities. Competition may also increase as a result of the lifting of restrictions on the interstate operations of financial institutions. Lending Activities Loan Portfolio Composition. The Bank's loan portfolio consists primarily of conventional first mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had gross loans receivable of $127.2 million, of which $106.4 million were one- to four-family, residential mortgage loans, or 83.61% of the Bank's gross loans receivable. The remainder of the portfolio consists of: $1.9 million of multi-family mortgage loans, or 1.50% of gross loans receivable; $6.6 million of commercial real estate loans, or 5.20% of gross loans receivable; $6.9 million of construction and land loans, or 5.45% of gross loans receivable; and consumer loans of $5.4 million, or 4.24% of gross loans receivable. At that same date, 86.1% of the Bank's loan portfolio had fixed interest rates. The Bank had no loans held for sale at September 30, 2000. The types of loans that the Bank may originate are subject to federal and state law and regulations. Interest rates charged by the Bank on loans are affected by the demand for such loans and the supply of money available for lending purposes and the rates offered by competitors. These factors are, in turn, affected by, among other things, economic conditions, fiscal policies of the federal government, the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board and legislative tax policies. The following table sets forth the composition of the Bank's loan portfolio in dollar amounts and as a percentage of the portfolio at the dates indicated.

The Bank's mortgage lending activities are conducted through its home office. Although the Bank may originate both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate mortgage loans, the majority of the Bank's loan originations have been fixed-rate mortgage loans. The Bank's ability to originate loans is dependent upon the relative customer demand for fixed-rate or adjustable-rate mortgage loans, which is affected by the current and expected future level of interest rates. The Bank has not emphasized the origination of adjustable-rate mortgage loans due to the relatively low demand for such loans in the Bank's primary market area. The Bank retains for its portfolio all of the mortgage loans that it originates. At September 30, 2000, there were no loans categorized as held for sale. In addition, the Bank also emphasizes the origination of construction loans secured primarily by owner- occupied properties. From time to time the Bank has participated in loans originated by other institutions based upon the Bank's investment needs and market opportunities. The following tables set forth the Bank's loan originations and principal repayments for the periods indicated: For the Year Ended September 30, -------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- (In thousands) Beginning balance, net............................................. $113,273 $ 98,486 $84,285 Loans originated: One- to four-family........................................... 15,150 36,487 36,092 Multi-family.................................................. 160 917 666 Commercial real estate........................................ 838 3,026 2,762 Construction and land......................................... 9,334 7,857 9,635 Consumer...................................................... 4,661 3,684 1,996 -------- ------- ------- Total loans originated...................................... 30,143 51,971 51,151 Principal repayments............................................

The primary lending activity of the Bank has been and continues to be the origination of permanent conventional mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences located in the Bank's primary market area, which the Bank retains in its portfolio. The Bank's loans generally do not conform to secondary market standards because the Bank does not require title insurance or a survey. Management believes that the Bank's policy of not selling the loans that it originates provides the Bank with a competitive advantage in the origination of loans in its primary market area. Loan originations are obtained from the Bank's loan officers and their contacts with the local real estate industry, existing or past customers, and members of the local communities. The Bank primarily originates fixed-rate loans, but also offers adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") loans. At September 30, 2000, one- to four-family mortgage loans totaled $106.4 million, or 83.61% of total loans at such date. Of the Bank's mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences, $95.5 million or 89.76%, were fixed-rate loans. The Bank's policy is to originate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 80% of the appraised value of the property securing the loan, up to 85% of the appraised value if the loan is co-signed by a person approved by the Board of Directors and up to 95% of the appraised value if private mortgage insurance is obtained. Mortgage loans originated by the Bank generally include due-on-sale clauses which provide the Bank with the contractual right to deem the loan immediately due and payable in the event the borrower transfers ownership of the property without the Bank's consent. Due-on-sale clauses are an important means of adjusting the rates on the Bank's fixed-rate mortgage loan portfolio and the Bank exercises its rights under these clauses. The residential mortgage loans originated by the Bank are generally for terms to maturity of up to 30 years. The Bank offers several adjustable rate loan programs with terms of up to 30 years and interest rates that adjust either annually or every three years. Of the Bank's mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences, $10.9 million, or 10.24%, had adjustable rates. The Bank's one year ARM loan has a maximum adjustment limitation of 1.5% per year and a 5.0% lifetime cap on adjustments. The Bank's three-year ARM loan has a maximum adjustment limitation of 2.0% per change and a 5.0% lifetime cap. The index for substantially all of the Bank's ARM loans is the Federal Home Loan Bank System's National Average Mortgage Rate for Previously-Occupied Homes. The volume and types of ARM loans originated by the Bank have been affected by such market factors as the level of interest rates, consumer preferences, competition and the availability of funds. In recent years, demand for ARM loans in the Bank's primary market area has been weak due to the low interest rate environment and consumer preference for fixed-rate loans. Consequently, in recent years the Bank has not originated a significant amount of ARM loans as compared to its originations of fixed-rate loans. The ARM loans offered by the Bank do not provide for initial deep discount interest rates or for negative amortization. Although the Bank will continue to offer ARM loans, there can be no assurance that in the future the Bank will be able to originate a sufficient volume of ARM loans to constitute a significant portion of the Bank's loan portfolio. Multi-Family Lending. On a limited basis, the Bank originates multi-family mortgage loans generally secured by properties located in the Bank's primary market area. In reaching its decision on whether to make a multi-family loan, the Bank considers a number of factors including: the net operating income of the mortgaged premises before debt service and depreciation; the debt service ratio (the ratio of net operating income to debt service); and the ratio of loan amount to appraised value. Pursuant to the Bank's current underwriting policies, a multi-family mortgage loan may be made in an amount up to 80% of the appraised value of the underlying property. In addition, the Bank generally requires a debt service ratio of 120%. Properties securing a multi-family loan are appraised by an independent appraiser. When evaluating a multi-family loan, the Bank also considers the financial resources and income level of the borrower, the borrower's experience in owning or managing similar property, and the Bank's lending experience with the borrower. The Bank's underwriting policies require that the borrower be able to demonstrate strong management skills and the ability to maintain the property from current rental income. The borrower is required to present evidence of the ability to repay the mortgage and a satisfactory credit history. In making its assessment of the creditworthiness of the borrower, the Bank generally reviews the financial statements, employment and credit history of the borrower, as well as other related documentation. 7 Loans secured by multi-family residential properties generally involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Because payments on loans secured by multi-family properties are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. The Bank seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting policies, which require such loans to be qualified at origination on the basis of the property's income and debt coverage ratio. The Bank's multi-family loan portfolio at September 30, 2000 totaled $1.9 million or 1.50% of gross loans receivable. The Bank's largest multi-family loan at September 30, 2000, had an outstanding balance of $416,000 that is secured by 15 units and is current as to the repayment of principal and interest. Commercial Real Estate Lending. On a limited basis, the Bank originates and participates in commercial real estate loans that are generally secured by properties used for business or religious purposes such as farms, churches, nursing homes, small office buildings or retail facilities located in its primary market area. The Bank's underwriting procedures provide that commercial real estate loans may be made in amounts up to 80% of the appraised value of the property. The Bank's underwriting standards and procedures are similar to those applicable to its multi-family loans, whereby the Bank considers the net operating income of the property, the debt service ratio and the borrower's expertise, credit history and profitability. The largest commercial real estate loan in the Bank's portfolio at September 30, 2000 was a $2.0 million participation loan and is secured by a nursing home. The loan was current and performing in accordance with its contractual terms at September 30, 2000. At September 30, 2000 the Bank's commercial real estate loan portfolio was $6.6 million, or 5.20% of gross loans receivable. Loans secured by commercial real estate properties, similar to multi-family loans, are generally larger and involve a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate properties are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to a great extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. The Bank seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting standards. Construction and Land Lending. The Bank generally originates construction and land development loans to contractors and individuals in its primary market area. The Bank's construction loans primarily are made to finance the construction of owner-occupied one- to four-family residential properties and to a significantly lesser extent, real estate developments. The Bank's construction loans to individuals are primarily fixed-rate loans with maturities of six months which, upon completion of construction, convert to permanent loans with maturities of up to 30 years. The Bank's policies provide that construction loans may be made in amounts up to 80% of the appraised value of the property for construction of one- to four-family residences and up to 90% of the appraisal value if private mortgage insurance is obtained. Loan proceeds are disbursed in increments as construction progresses and as inspections warrant. The Bank requires regular inspections to monitor the progress of construction. Land loans are determined on an individual basis, but generally they do not exceed 80% of the actual cost or current appraised value of the property, which ever is less. The largest construction and land loan in the Bank's portfolio at September 30, 2000 had a balance of $410,000 and is secured by a single-family residence. This loan is currently performing in accordance with its terms. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had $6.9 million of construction and land loans totaling 5.45% of the Bank's gross loans receivable. Construction and land financing is considered to involve a higher degree of credit risk than long-term financing on improved, owner-occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property's value at completion of construction or development compared to the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. If the estimate of value proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be confronted with a project, when completed, having a value which is insufficient to assure full repayment. Consumer and Other Lending. The Bank's originated consumer loans generally consist of automobile loans, second mortgage loans, home equity loans, mobile home loans and loans secured by deposits. At September 30, 2000, the Bank's consumer loan portfolio was $5.4 million, or 4.24% of gross loans receivable. 8 Loan Approval Procedures and Authority. The Board of Directors establishes the lending policies of the Bank. Loans in amounts up to $25,000 may be approved by the Bank's loan officers. Loans in excess of $25,000 and up to $200,000 must be approved by the Loan Committee, which consists of two senior officer/directors and one outside director. Loans in excess of $200,000 must be approved by the Board of Directors. Pursuant to OTS regulations, loans to one borrower cannot exceed 15% of the Bank's unimpaired capital and surplus. The Bank will not make loans to one borrower that are in excess of regulatory limits. Delinquencies and Classified Assets. The Board of Directors performs a monthly review of all delinquent loans 30 days or more past due. The procedures taken by the Bank with respect to delinquencies vary depending on the nature of the loan and period of delinquency. When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, the Bank takes a number of steps to have the borrower cure the delinquency and restore the loan to current status. The Bank sends the borrower a written notice of non-payment after the loan is first past due. In the event payment is not then received, additional letters are sent and phone calls are made. If management believes that the loan is well-secured, the Bank generally will try to work with the borrower to have the loan brought current. If the loan is still not brought current and it becomes necessary for the Bank to take legal action, the Bank will commence foreclosure proceedings against any real property that secures the loan. If a foreclosure action is instituted and the loan is not brought current, paid in full, or refinanced before the foreclosure sale, the real property securing the loan is foreclosed upon and sold at a sheriff's sale. Federal regulations and the Bank's Classification of Assets Policy require that the Bank utilize an internal asset classification system as a means of reporting problem and potential problem assets. The Bank has incorporated the OTS internal asset classifications as a part of its credit monitoring system. The Bank currently classifies problem and potential problem assets as "Substandard" or "Loss" assets. An asset is considered "Substandard" if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. "Substandard" assets include those characterized by the "distinct possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss" if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as "Loss" are those considered "uncollectible" and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss allowance is not warranted. When an insured institution classifies one or more assets, or portions thereof, as Substandard, under current OTS policy the Bank is required to consider establishing a general valuation allowance in an amount deemed prudent by management. The general valuation allowance, which is a regulatory term, represents a loss allowance which has been established to recognize the inherent credit risk associated with lending and investing activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, has not been allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies one or more assets, or portions thereof, as "Loss," it is required either to establish a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of the amount of the asset so classified or to charge off such amount. A savings institution's determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS which can order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. The OTS, in conjunction with the other federal banking agencies, has adopted an interagency policy statement on the allowance for loan and lease losses. The policy statement provides guidance for financial institutions on both the responsibilities of management for the assessment and establishment of adequate allowances and guidance for banking agency examiners to use in determining the adequacy of general valuation allowances. Generally, the policy statement recommends that institutions have effective systems and controls to identify, monitor and address asset quality problems; that management has analyzed all significant factors that affect the collectibility of the portfolio in a reasonable manner; and that management has established acceptable allowance evaluation processes that meet the objectives set forth in the policy statement. As a result of the declines in local and regional real estate market values and the significant losses experienced by many financial institutions, there has been a greater level of scrutiny by regulatory authorities of the loan portfolios of financial institutions undertaken as part of the examination of institutions by the OTS and the FDIC. While the Bank believes that it has established an adequate allowance for estimated loan losses, there can be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing the Bank's loan portfolio, will not request the Bank to materially increase its allowance for loan losses, thereby negatively affecting the Bank's financial condition and earnings. Although management believes that an adequate allowance for loan losses has been established, actual losses 9 are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the level of allowances for estimated loan losses may become necessary. The Bank's management reviews and classifies the Bank's assets quarterly and reports the results of its review to the Board of Directors. The Bank classifies assets in accordance with the management guidelines described above. Real estate owned ("REO") is classified as Substandard. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had $997,000 of assets classified as Substandard and no assets classified as Loss. Non-performing Assets. The following table sets forth information regarding non-accrual loans, accruing loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more and REO. For the years ended September 30, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively, the amount of interest income that would have been recognized on nonaccrual loans if such loans had continued to perform in accordance with their contractual terms was $0, $0, $0, $0 and $5,280, none of which was recognized.

Loans now current but where some concerns exist as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms, exclusive of nonperforming loans, were not significant at September 30, 2000 and 1999. These loans are closely monitored by management and the classification of these loans does not imply that management expects losses on the loans, but believes that a higher level of scrutiny is prudent under the circumstances. At September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company had no interest-bearing assets other than loans which would have been reported as nonaccrual or delinquent. 10 The following table sets forth delinquencies in the Bank's loan portfolio as of the dates indicated: At September 30, 2000 At September 30, 1999 --------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- 60-89 Days 90 Days or More (1) 60-89 Days 90 Days or More (1) ------------------ ------------------- ------------------ -------------------- Principal Principal Principal Principal Number Balance Number Balance Number Balance Number Balance of Loans of Loans of Loans of Loans of Loans of Loans of Loans of Loans -------- -------- -------- --------- -------- --------- -------- --------- (Dollars in thousands) One- to four-family.............. 3 $162 11 $570 6 $186 9 $335 Multi-family..................... -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Commercial real estate........... -- -- 1 2 -- -- 1 30 Construction and land............ -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Consumer ........................ -- -- 2 10 2 7 2 14 ------ ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Total............................ 3 $162 14 $582 8 $193 12 $379 ====== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== Delinquent loans to gross loans receivable.............. 0.13% 0.46% 0.16% 0.32% ===== ===== ===== ===== At September 30, 1998 --------------------------------------------------- 60-89 Days 90 Days or More (1) -------------------- ------------------------ Principal Principal Number Balance Number Balance of Loans of Loans of Loans of Loans ---------- --------- -------- --------- (Dollars in thousands) One- to four-family.............. -- $ -- 20 $783 Multi-family..................... -- -- -- -- Commercial real estate........... -- -- 2 38 Construction and land............ -- -- -- -- Consumer......................... 7 $31 1 4 ----- ----- -- ---- Total............................ 7 $ 31 23 $825 ===== ===== == ==== Delinquent loans to gross loans receivable.............. 0.03% 0.79% (1) Loans 90 days or more past due are included in non-accrual loans. See "Non-performing Assets." 11 Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risks inherent in the Bank's loan portfolio and the general economy. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at an amount management considers adequate to cover estimated losses in loans receivable which are deemed probable and estimable. The allowance is based upon a number of factors, including current economic conditions, actual loss experience and industry trends. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to make additional provisions for loan losses based upon information available at the time of the review. As of September 30, 2000, the Bank's allowance for loan losses was 0.13% of gross loans receivable. The Bank had non-performing loans of $582,000 and $379,000 at September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, respectively. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had no loans classified as "impaired." The Bank will continue to monitor and modify its allowances for loan losses as conditions dictate. The following table sets forth activity in the Bank's allowance for loan losses for the periods set forth in the table.

If the Bank acquires any REO, it is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell and thereafter REO is recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loan or the fair value of the related assets at the date of foreclosure, less costs to sell. Thereafter, REO is valued at the lower of the recorded investment or the fair value of the property less costs to sell. If there is a further deterioration in value, the Bank provides for a specific valuation allowance. Investment Activities Federally chartered savings institutions have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, bankers' acceptances and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, federally chartered savings institutions may also invest their assets in commercial paper, investment-grade corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that a federally chartered savings institution is otherwise authorized to make directly. Additionally, the Bank must maintain minimum levels of investments that qualify as liquid assets under OTS regulations. See "Regulation and Supervision--Federal Savings Institution Regulation--Liquidity." Historically, the Bank has maintained liquid assets above the minimum OTS requirements and at a level considered to be more than adequate to meet its normal daily activities. The investment policy of the Company as established by the Board of Directors attempts to provide and maintain liquidity, generate a favorable return on investments without incurring undue interest rate and credit risk, and complement the Company's lending activities. The Company's policies generally limit investments to government and federal agency securities. The Company's policies provide the authority to invest in U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities meeting the Company's guidelines and in mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by the U.S. government and agencies thereof. At September 30, 2000, the Company had investment and mortgage-backed securities with a carrying value of $7.1 million and a market value of $7.2 million. At September 30, 2000, the Company had $1.3 million in mortgage-backed securities classified as available for sale and $5.8 million in investment and mortgage-backed securities classified as held to maturity. At September 30, 2000, $3.2 million of the Company's mortgage-backed securities had adjustable rates. At September 30, 2000, all of the Company's mortgage-backed securities were insured or guaranteed by either the GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC. Investments in mortgage-backed securities involve a risk that actual prepayments will be greater than estimated prepayments over the life of the security which may require adjustments to the amortization of any premium or accretion of any discount relating to such instruments thereby reducing or increasing, respectively, the net yield on such securities. There is also the risk associated with the necessity to reinvest the cash flows from such securities at market interest rates which may be lower than the interest rates received on such securities. In addition, the market value of such securities may be adversely affected by changes in interest rates. 14 The following table sets forth certain information regarding the carrying and fair values of the Company's investment securities and mortgage-backed securities at the dates indicated: At September 30, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2000 1999 1998 --------------------- ---------------------- ---------------------- Amortized Fair Amortized Fair Amortized Fair Cost Value Cost Value Cost Value --------- -------- -------- ---------- --------- ---------- (In thousands) Securities: Available for sale: FNMA certificates................. $ 784 $ 750 $1,302 $ 1,261 $ 3,915 $ 3,889 GNMA certificates................. 567 560 613 603 690 711 ------ ------ ------ ------- ------- ------- Total available for sale....... 1,351 1,310 1,915 1,864 4,605 4,600 ------ ------ ------ ------- ------- ------- Held to maturity: GNMA certificates................. 5,745 5,823 6,752 6,878 8,897 9,256 FHLMC certificates................ 27 28 53 55 107 112 ------ ------ ------ ------- ------- ------- Total held to maturity......... 5,772 5,851 6,805 6,933 9,004 9,368 FHLB stock........................ 1,631 1,631 1,250 1,250 922 922 ------ ------ ------ ------- ------- ------- Total securities............... $8,754 $8,792 $9,970 $10,047 $14,531 $14,890 ====== ====== ====== ======= ======= ======= As of September 30, 2000, the Company did not have any security concentrations which exceeded 10% of total securities. 15 The table below sets forth certain information regarding the carrying value, weighted average yields and contractual maturities of the Company's mortgage-backed securities as of September 30, 2000.

Deposits, loan repayments and prepayments and cash flows generated from operations are the primary sources of the Bank's funds for use in lending, investing and for other general purposes. Deposits. The Bank offers a variety of deposit accounts with a range of interest rates and terms. The Bank's deposits consist of savings accounts, NOW accounts, money market accounts and certificates of deposit. For the year ended September 30, 2000, certificates of deposit constituted 74.56% of total average deposits. The term of the certificates of deposit offered by the Bank vary from six months to five years and the offering rates are established by the Bank on a weekly basis. Once a certificate account is established, no additional amounts are permitted to be deposited in that account, with the exception of Individual Retirement Account certificates. Specific terms of an individual account vary according to the type of account, the minimum balance required, the time period funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market rates, prevailing interest rates and competition. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had $39.9 million of certificate accounts maturing in less than one year. The Bank's deposits are obtained predominantly from the area in which its banking office is located. The Bank relies primarily on a willingness to pay market-competitive interest rates to attract and retain these deposits. Accordingly, rates offered by competing financial institutions significantly affect the Bank's ability to attract and retain deposits. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had approximately $5.4 million in certificate accounts in amounts of $100,000 or more maturing as follows: Weighted Maturity Period Amount Average Rate ------------------ ------------------- -------------- (Dollars in thousands) Three months or less............................ $ -- --% Over three through six months................... 1,516 6.33 Over six through 12 months...................... 2,062 6.13 Over 12 months.................................. 1,867 6.77 ------ ---- Total..................................... $5,445 6.41% ====== ==== 17 The following table sets forth the distribution of the Bank's deposit accounts for the periods indicated.

The Bank utilizes borrowings from the FHLB as an alternative to retail deposits to fund its operations as part of its operating strategy. These FHLB borrowings are collateralized primarily by certain of the Bank's 1-4 family real estate loans secondarily by the Bank's investment in capital stock of the FHLB. FHLB borrowings are made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The maximum amount that the FHLB will advance to member institutions, including the Bank, fluctuates from time to time in accordance with the policies of the FHLB. See "Regulation and Supervision--Federal Home Loan Bank System." At September 30, 2000, the Bank had $30.0 million in outstanding FHLB borrowings, compared to $25.0 million at September 30, 1999. The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Bank's borrowed funds at or for the periods ended on the dates indicated.

The Bank has one subsidiary, Delphos Service Corporation, which currently does not conduct any activities. Personnel As of September 30, 2000, the Company had 18 full-time employees and 9 part-time employees. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit and the Bank considers its relationship with its employees to be good. 20 REGULATION AND SUPERVISION General The Company, as a savings and loan holding company, is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") under the Home Owners' Loan Act, as amended (the "HOLA"). In addition, the activities of savings institutions, such as the Bank, are governed by the HOLA and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDI Act"). The Bank is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the OTS, as its primary federal regulator, and the FDIC, as the deposit insurer. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") System and its deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") managed by the FDIC. The Bank must file reports with the OTS and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other savings institutions. The OTS and/or the FDIC conduct periodic examinations to test the Bank's safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or the Congress, could have a material adverse impact on the Company, the Bank and their operations. Certain of the regulatory requirements applicable to the Bank and to the Company are referred to below or elsewhere herein. The description of statutory provisions and regulations applicable to savings institutions and their holding companies set forth in this Form 10-K does not purport to be a complete description of such statutes and regulations and their effects on the Bank and the Company. Holding Company Regulation The Company is a non-diversified unitary savings and loan holding company within the meaning of the HOLA. As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not restricted under existing laws as to the types of business activities in which it may engage, provided that the Bank continues to be a qualified thrift lender ("QTL"). See "Federal Savings Institution Regulation--QTL Test." Upon any non-supervisory acquisition by the Company of another savings institution or savings bank that meets the QTL test and is deemed to be a savings institution by the OTS, the Company would become a multiple savings and loan holding company (if the acquired institution is held as a separate subsidiary) and would be subject to extensive limitations on the types of business activities in which it could engage. The HOLA limits the activities of a multiple savings and loan holding company and its non-insured institution subsidiaries primarily to activities permissible for bank holding companies under Section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding Company Act ("BHC Act"), subject to the prior approval of the OTS, and certain activities authorized by OTS regulation, and no multiple savings and loan holding company may acquire more than 5% of the voting stock of a company engaged in impermissible activities. Recently enacted federal legislation designed to modernize the regulation of the financial services industry expands the ability of bank holding companies to affiliate with other types of financial services companies such as insurance companies and investment banking companies. However, the legislation provides that companies that acquire control of a single savings association after May 4, 1999 (or that filed an application for that purpose after that date) are not entitled to the unrestricted activities formerly allowed for a unitary savings and loan holding company. Rather, these companies will have authority to engage in the activities permitted "a financial holding company" under the new legislation, including insurance and securities-related activities, and the activities currently permitted for multiple savings and loan holding companies, but generally not in commercial activities. The authority for unrestricted activities is grandfathered for unitary savings and loan holding companies, such as the Company, that existed before May 4, 1999. However, the authority for unrestricted activities would not apply to any company that acquired the Company. 21 The HOLA prohibits a savings and loan holding company, directly or indirectly, or through one or more subsidiaries, from acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another savings institution or holding company thereof without prior written approval of the OTS or acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution that is not insured by the FDIC. In evaluating applications by holding companies to acquire savings institutions, the OTS must consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive factors. The OTS is prohibited from approving any acquisition that would result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions in more than one state, subject to two exceptions: (i) the approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies and (ii) the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings institution specifically permit such acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate savings and loan holding company acquisitions. Although savings and loan holding companies are not subject to specific capital requirements or specific restrictions on the payment of dividends or other capital distributions, HOLA does prescribe such restrictions on subsidiary savings institutions as described below. The Bank must notify the OTS 30 days before declaring any dividend to the Company. In addition, the financial impact of a holding company on its subsidiary institution is a matter that is evaluated by the OTS and the agency has authority to order cessation of activities or divestiture of subsidiaries deemed to pose a threat to the safety and soundness of the institution. Federal Savings Institution Regulation Capital Requirements. The OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital ratio, a 4% leverage (core) capital ratio (3% for savings associations that receive the highest examination rating on the CAMELS financial institution rating system) and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. In addition, the prompt corrective action standards discussed below also establish, in effect, a minimum 2% tangible capital standard, and, together with the risk-based capital standard itself, a 4% Tier I risk-based capital standard. Core capital is defined as common shareholders' equity (including retained earnings), certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less intangibles other than certain mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The OTS regulations also require that, in meeting the tangible, leverage (core) and risk-based capital standards, institutions must generally deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in activities as principal that are not permissible for a national bank. The risk-based capital standard for savings institutions requires the maintenance of Tier I (core) and total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital) to risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and 8%, respectively. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor of 0% to 100%, as assigned by the OTS capital regulation based on the risks OTS believes are inherent in the type of asset. The components of Tier I (core) capital are equivalent to those discussed earlier. The components of supplementary capital currently include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock, the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets, and up to 45% of unrealized gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair market values. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital. The OTS regulatory capital requirements also incorporate an interest rate risk component. Savings institutions with "above normal" interest rate risk exposure are subject to a deduction from total capital for purposes of calculating their risk-based capital requirements. A savings institution's interest rate risk is measured by the decline in the net portfolio value of its assets (i.e., the difference between incoming and outgoing discounted cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts) that would result from a hypothetical 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates divided by the estimated economic value of the institution's assets. In calculating its total capital under the risk-based capital rule, a savings institution whose measured interest rate risk exposure exceeds 2% must deduct an amount equal to one-half of the difference between the institution's measured interest rate risk and 2%, multiplied by the estimated economic value of the institution's assets. The Director of the OTS may waive or defer a 22 savings institution's interest rate risk component on a case-by-case basis. A savings institution with assets of less than $300 million and risk-based capital ratios in excess of 12% is not subject to the interest rate risk component, unless the OTS determines otherwise. For the present time, the OTS has deferred implementation of the interest rate risk component. At September 30, 2000, the Bank met each of its capital requirements and it is anticipated that the Bank will not be subject to the interest rate risk component. The following table presents the Bank's capital position at September 30, 2000. Capital ------------------------- Excess Actual Required (Deficiency) Actual Required Capital Capital Amount Percent Percent ---------- ---------- ------------- ----------- ----------- (Dollars in thousands) Tangible.................................. $16,234 $2,049 $14,185 11.88% 1.50% Core (Leverage)........................... 16,234 4,099 12,135 11.88 3.00 Risk-based................................ 16,399 5,934 10,465 22.11 8.00 Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action. Under the OTS prompt corrective action regulations, the OTS is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends upon the institution's degree of undercapitalization. Generally, a savings institution that has a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of less than 8%, a ratio of Tier I (core) capital to risk-weighted assets of less than 4% or a ratio of core capital to total assets of less than 4% (3% or less for institutions with the highest examination rating) is considered to be "undercapitalized." A savings institution that has a total risk-based capital ratio less than 6%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of less than 3% or a leverage ratio that is less than 3% is considered to be "significantly undercapitalized" and a savings institution that has a tangible capital to assets ratio equal to or less than 2% is deemed to be "critically undercapitalized." Subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator is required to appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is "critically undercapitalized." The regulation also provides that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the OTS within 45 days of the date a savings institution receives notice that it is "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically undercapitalized." Compliance with the plan must be guaranteed by any parent holding company. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to an undercapitalized institution, including, but not limited to, increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital distributions and expansion. The OTS could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors. Insurance of Deposit Accounts. Deposits of the Bank are presently insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation maintains a risk-based assessment system by which institutions are assigned to one of three categories based on their capitalization and one of three subcategories based on examination ratings and other supervisory information. An institution's assessment rate depends upon the categories to which it is assigned. Assessment rates for Savings Association Insurance Fund member institutions are determined semiannually by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and currently range from zero basis points for the healthiest institutions to 27 basis points for the riskiest. In addition to the assessment for deposit insurance, institutions are assessed to pay bonds issued in the late 1980s by the Financing Corporation to recapitalize the predecessor to the Savings Association Insurance Fund. During 1999, Financing Corporation payments for Savings Association Insurance Fund members approximated 6.10 basis points, while Bank Insurance Fund members paid 1.22 basis points. By law, there was equal sharing of Financing Corporation payments between the members of both insurance funds beginning January 1, 2000. 23 The Bank's assessment rate for fiscal 2000 ranged from 2.02 to 2.12 basis points and the premium paid for this period was $26,000. A significant increase in SAIF insurance premiums would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the Bank. Under the FDI Act, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the OTS. The management of the Bank does not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of deposit insurance. Loans to One Borrower. Under the HOLA, savings institutions are generally subject to the limits on loans to one borrower applicable to national banks. Generally, savings institutions 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. An additional amount may be lent, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if such loan is secured by readily-marketable collateral, which is defined to include certain financial instruments and bullion. At September 30, 2000, the Bank's limit on loans to one borrower was $2.4 million. At September 30, 2000, the Bank's largest aggregate outstanding balance of loans to one borrower was $2.0 million. QTL Test. The HOLA requires savings institutions to meet a QTL test. Under the QTL test, a savings and loan association is required to either maintain at least 65% of its "portfolio assets" (total assets less: (i) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets; (ii) intangibles, including goodwill; and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) in certain "qualified thrift investments" (primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed securities) in at least 9 months out of each 12 month period or qualify as a "domestic building and loan association" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. A savings institution that fails the QTL test is subject to certain operating restrictions and may be required to convert to a bank charter. As of September 30, 2000, the Bank maintained 96.59% of its portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments and, therefore, met the QTL test. Limitation on Capital Distributions. OTS regulations impose limitations upon all capital distributions by a savings institution, including cash dividends, payments to repurchase its shares and payments to Shareholders of another institution in a cash-out merger. OTS adopted new rules governing capital distributions, effective April 1, 1999. Under the new regulation, an application to and the prior approval of the OTS is required before any capital distribution if the institution does not meet the criteria for "expedited treatment" of applications under OTS regulations (generally, compliance with all capital requirements and examination ratings in one of two top categories), the total capital distributions for the calendar year exceed net income for that year plus the amount of retained net income for the preceding two years, the institution would be undercapitalized following the distribution or the distribution would otherwise be contrary to a statute, regulation or agreement with OTS. If an application is not required, the institution must still give advance notice to OTS of the capital distribution. If the Bank's capital fell below its regulatory requirements or if the OTS notified it that it was in need of more than normal supervision, the Bank's ability to make capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the OTS could prohibit a proposed capital distribution, which would otherwise be permitted by the regulation if the OTS determines that the distribution would be an unsafe or unsound practice. Liquidity. The Bank is required to maintain an average daily balance of specified liquid assets equal to a monthly average of not less than a specified percentage of its net withdrawable deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings. This liquidity requirement is currently 4%. The Bank's liquidity ratio for September 30, 2000 was 9.15%, which exceeded the applicable requirements. The Bank has never been subject to monetary penalties for failure to meet its liquidity requirements. Assessments. Savings institutions are required to pay assessments to the OTS to fund the agency's operations. The general assessments, paid on a semi-annual basis, are computed upon the savings institution's total assets, including 24 consolidated subsidiaries, as reported in the Bank's latest quarterly thrift financial report. The assessments paid by the Bank for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000 totaled $36,000. Branching. OTS regulations permit nationwide branching by federally chartered savings institutions to the extent allowed by federal statute. This permits federal savings institutions to establish interstate networks and to geographically diversify their loan portfolios and lines of business. The OTS authority preempts any state law purporting to regulate branching by federal savings institutions. Transactions with Related Parties. The Bank's authority to engage in transactions with related parties or "affiliates" (e.g., any company that controls or is under common control with an institution, including the Company and its non-savings institution subsidiaries) is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act ("FRA"). Section 23A limits the aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the savings institution's capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in Section 23A and the purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Section 23B generally provides that certain transactions with affiliates, including loans and asset purchases, must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and no savings institution may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary. The Bank's authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders ("insiders"), as well as entities such persons control, is governed by Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the FRA and Regulation O thereunder. Among other things, such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and to not involve more than the normal risk of repayment. Recent legislation created an exception for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other employees. Regulation O also places individual and aggregate limits on the amount of loans the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on the Bank's capital position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed. Enforcement. Under the FDI Act, the OTS has primary enforcement responsibility over savings institutions and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including shareholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors to institution of receivership, conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. Under the FDI Act, the FDIC has the authority to recommend to the Director of the OTS enforcement action to be taken with respect to a particular savings institution. If action is not taken by the Director, the FDIC has authority to take such action under certain circumstances. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations. Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking agencies have adopted Interagency Guidelines Prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness ("Guidelines") and a final rule to implement safety and soundness standards required under the FDI Act. The Guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. The standards set forth in the Guidelines address internal controls and information systems; internal audit system; credit underwriting; loan documentation; interest rate risk exposure; asset growth; asset quality; earnings; and compensation, fees and benefits. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the Guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard, as required by the FDI Act. The final rule establishes deadlines for the submission and review of such safety and soundness compliance plans when such plans are required. 25 Federal Reserve System The Federal Reserve Board regulations require savings institutions to maintain non-interest earning reserves against their transaction accounts (primarily NOW and regular checking accounts). The Federal Reserve Board regulations generally require that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows: for that portion of transaction accounts aggregating $44.3 million or less (subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board) the reserve requirement is 3%; and for accounts aggregating greater than $44.3 million, the reserve requirement is $1.33 million plus 10% (subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board between 8% and 14%) against that portion of total transaction accounts in excess of $44.3 million. The first $5.0 million of otherwise reservable balances (subject to adjustments by the Federal Reserve Board) are exempted from the reserve requirements. The Bank is in compliance with the foregoing requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements imposed by the OTS. Community Reinvestment Act Under the Community Reinvestment Act, as implemented by OTS regulations, a savings association has a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with its safe and sound operation to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The Community Reinvestment Act does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions nor does it limit an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires the OTS, in connection with its examination of an institution, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of applications by such institution. The Community Reinvestment Act requires public disclosure of an institution's Community Reinvestment Act rating. Citizens Bank of Delphos' latest Community Reinvestment Act rating, received from the OTS was "Satisfactory." 26 FEDERAL AND STATE TAXATION Federal Taxation General. The Company and the Bank report their income on a consolidated basis and the accrual method of accounting, and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly the Bank's reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters is intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to the Bank or the Company. The Bank has not been audited by the IRS recently, and therefore the 1996 through 1999 returns are open for audit. For its 2000 taxable year, the Bank is subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 34%. Bad Debt Reserves. For fiscal years beginning prior to December 31, 1995, thrift institutions which qualified under certain definitional tests and other conditions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") were permitted to use certain favorable provisions to calculate their deductions from taxable income for annual additions to their bad debt reserve. A reserve could be established for bad debts on qualifying real property loans (generally secured by interests in real property improved or to be improved) under (i) the Percentage of Taxable Income Method (the "PTI Method") or (ii) the Experience Method. The reserve for nonqualifying loans was computed using the Experience Method. The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (the "1996 Act"), which was enacted on August 20, 1996, requires savings institutions to recapture (i.e., take into income) certain portions of their accumulated bad debt reserves. The 1996 Act repeals the reserve method of accounting for bad debts effective for tax years beginning after 1995. Thrift institutions that would be treated as small banks are allowed to utilize the experience method applicable to such institutions, while thrift institutions that are treated as large banks (those generally exceeding $500 million in assets) are required to use only the specific charge-off method. Thus, the PTI Method of accounting for bad debts is no longer available for any financial institution. Under the 1996 Act, for its current and future taxable years, the Bank is not permitted to make additions to its tax bad debt reserves under the PTI Method. In addition, the Bank is required to recapture (i.e., take into income) over a six year period the excess of the balance of its tax bad debt reserves as of December 31, 1995 over the balance of such reserves as of December 31, 1987. As a result of such recapture, the Bank will incur an additional tax liability of approximately $211,000 which is generally expected to be taken into income beginning in 1998 over a six-year period. Distributions. Under the 1996 Act, if the Bank makes "non-dividend distributions" to the Company, such distributions will be considered to have been made from the Bank's unrecaptured tax bad debt reserves (including the balance of its reserves as of December 31, 1987) to the extent thereof, and then from the Bank's supplemental reserve for losses on loans, to the extent thereof, and an amount based on the amount distributed (but not in excess of the amount of such reserves) will be included in the Bank's taxable income. Non-dividend distributions include distributions in excess of the Bank's current and accumulated earnings and profits, as calculated for federal income tax purposes, distributions in redemption of stock, and distributions in partial or complete liquidation. Dividends paid out of the Bank's current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be so included in the Bank's income. The amount of additional taxable income triggered by a non-dividend is an amount that, when reduced by the tax attributable to the income, is equal to the amount of the distribution. Thus, if the Bank makes a non-dividend distribution to the Company, approximately one and one-half times the amount of such distribution (but not in excess of the amount of such reserves) would be includable in income for federal income tax purposes, assuming a 34% federal corporate income tax rate. The Bank does not intend to pay dividends that would result in a recapture of any portion of its bad debt reserves. State and Local Taxation The Company is subject to the Ohio corporation franchise tax, which, as applied to the Company, is a tax measured by both net earnings and net worth. The rate of tax is the greater of (i) 5.1% on the first $50,000 of computed 27 Ohio taxable income and 8.5% of computed Ohio taxable income in excess of $50,000 and (ii) 0.4% times taxable net worth. Under these alternative measures of computing tax liability, the states to which a taxpayer's adjusted total net income and adjusted total net worth are apportioned or allocated are determined by complex formulas. The minimum tax is $50 per year. A special litter tax is also applicable to all corporations, including the Company, subject to the Ohio corporation franchise tax other than "financial institutions." If the franchise tax is paid on the net income basis, the litter tax is equal to .11% of the first $50,000 of computed Ohio taxable income and .22% of computed Ohio taxable income in excess of $50,000. If the franchise tax is paid on the net worth basis, the litter tax is equal to .014% times taxable-net-worth. Certain holding companies, such as the Company, will qualify for complete exemption from the net worth tax if certain conditions are met. The Company will most likely meet these conditions, and thus, calculate its Ohio franchise tax on the net income basis. The Bank is a "financial institution" for State of Ohio tax purposes. As such, it is subject to the Ohio corporate franchise tax on "financial institutions," which is imposed annually at a rate of 1.4% for 1999 and 1.3% for 2000 and thereafter of the Bank's apportioned book net worth, determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), less any statutory deduction. As a "financial institution," the Bank is not subject to any tax based upon net income or net of its imposed by the State of Ohio. Item 2. Properties. - -------------------- The Bank conducts its business through a single banking office located at 114 East 3rd Street in Delphos, Ohio. The Company believes that the current facilities are adequate to meet the present and immediately foreseeable needs of the Bank and the Company. The Bank's office was constructed in 1955 and was most recently remodeled in 1993. The Bank's office had a net book value of $516,000 at September 30, 2000. Item 3. Legal Proceedings. - --------------------------- At September 30, 2000, the Company was not involved in any pending legal proceedings. However, from time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. - ------------------------------------------------------------- None. 28 PART II Item 5. Market for Registrants Common Equity and Related Shareholder Matters. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Common Stock of the Company is traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "DCBI." The stock began trading on November 21, 1996. As of November 16, 2000, there were approximately 1,202 recordholders of the Common Stock of the Company, which includes shares held in street name.

(3) Asset Quality Ratios and Regulatory Capital Ratios are end of period ratios. With the exception of end of period ratios, all ratios are based on average monthly balances during the indicated periods and are annualized where appropriate. (4) The average interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. (5) The net interest margin represents net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets. (6) The efficiency ratio represents non-interest expense as a percent of net interest income before provision for loan losses and non-interest income. (7) For definitions and further information relating to the Bank's regulatory capital requirements, See "Regulation and Supervision--Federal Savings Institution Regulation--Capital Requirements." (8) Gross loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances. (9) Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans and real estate owned ("REO"). Non-performing loans consist of all loans 90 days or more past due and all other non-accrual loans. See "Lending Activities--Non-Performing Assets" and "--Real Estate Owned." 31 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of Operations - ------------- Average Balance Sheets. The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company at September 30, 2000, and for the years ended September 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998. The yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods shown. Average balances are derived from average month-end balances. Management does not believe that the use of average monthly balances instead of average daily balances has caused any material differences in the information presented. Average balances of loans receivable include loans on which the Company has discontinued accruing interest. The yields and costs include amortized and deferred fees and costs which are considered adjustments to yields. ----------------------------- At September 30, 2000 2000 --------------------- ----------------------------- Average Yield/ Average Yield/ Balance Cost Balance Interest Cost ---------- -------- --------- -------- -------- Assets: Interest-earning assets: Interest-earning deposits in other banks.... $ 1,495 6.35% $ 796 $ 58 7.29% Investment securities, net(1)............... 1,631 6.25 1,550 102 6.58 Loans receivable, net (2)................... 122,888 7.39 117,681 8,994 7.64 Mortgage-backed securities, net(1).......... 7,082 7.37 7,762 570 7.34 ----------- ---- --------- -------- ---- Total interest-earning assets........... 133,096 7.36 127,789 9,724 7.61 Non-interest-earning assets................... 3,531 3,766 ----------- --------- Total assets............................ $ 136,627 $ 131,555 =========== ========= Liabilities and Equity: Interest-bearing liabilities: Passbook savings accounts................... $ 8,402 2.69 $ 8,856 233 2.63 Money market accounts....................... 4,049 3.06 4,776 143 2.99 NOW accounts................................ 5,384 1.79 5,476 96 1.75 Certificate accounts........................ 61,273 6.12 57,570 3,227 5.61 FHLB advances............................... 30,000 6.45 27,655 1,646 5.95 ----------- ---- --------- -------- ---- Total interest-bearing liabilities........ 109,108 5.62 104,333 5,345 5.12 -------- Non-interest-bearing liabilities.............. 1,534 1,599 ----------- --------- Total liabilities....................... 110,642 105,932 Equity........................................ 25,985 25,623 ----------- --------- Total liabilities and equity............ $ 136,627 $ 131,555 =========== ========= Net interest income before provision for estimated loan losses................. $ 4,379 ======== Net interest rate spread(3)................... 2.49% ==== Net interest margin(4)........................ $ 121.99% 122.48% 3.43% =========== ====== ==== Ratio of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities................

The following table presents the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected the Company's interest income and interest expense during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each category with respect to: (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate); (ii) changes attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume); and (iii) the net change. The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately to the changes due to volume and the changes due to rate.

The Company's cost of funds is influenced by interest rates on competing investments and general market rates of interest. Lending activities are influenced by demand for real estate loans and other types of loans which, in turn, is affected by the interest rates at which such loans are made, general economic conditions and availability of funds for lending activities. The Company's net income is primarily dependent on its net interest income (the difference between interest income generated on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities). Net income is also affected by provisions for loan losses, service charges, gains on sale of assets and other income, noninterest expense and income taxes. The Company's net income was $1,394,000 and $1,703,000 for the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. Interest Income Interest income increased $602,000, or 6.2%, from $9.1 million for the year ended September 30, 1999 to $9.7 million for the year ended September 30, 2000. The increase in interest income resulted primarily from an increase in interest and fees on loans. Such increase was due to higher average loan balances related to the origination of new one- to four-family real estate loans. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in interest and dividends on securities. The decrease in these investments resulted from a decrease in the volume of securities in the current year as the majority of the proceeds from principal payments have been reinvested in higher yielding loans. Interest Expense Interest expense increased $861,000, or 19.2%, from $4.5 million for the year ended September 30, 1999 to $5.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2000. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in the volume of FHLB advances during 2000 along with an overall increase in interest rates. The Company began using FHLB advances in fiscal 1998 to fund the Bank's loan growth. Net Interest Income Net interest income is the largest component of the Company's income and is affected by the interest rate environment and volume and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income decreased slightly by $259,000 to $4.4 million for the year ended September 30, 2000. The decrease reflects the increase in market rates as the interest-bearing liabilities have repriced more quickly than interest-earning assets. This trend is evidenced by the decrease in the net interest rate spread from 2.94% for the year ended September 30, 1999 to 2.49% for the year ended September 30, 2000. The Company remains liability sensitive, whereby its interest-bearing liabilities will generally reprice more quickly than its interest-earning assets. Therefore, the Company's net interest margin will generally increase in periods of falling interest rates in the market and will decrease in periods of increasing interest rates. Accordingly, in a rising interest rate environment, the Company may need to increase rates to attract and retain deposits. Due to the negative gap position, the rise in interest rates may not have such an immediate impact on interest-earning assets. This lag could negatively affect net income. Provision for Loan Losses The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses in an amount, which, in management's judgment, is adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent on a variety of factors, including performance 34 of the Company's loan portfolio, the economy, changes in real estate values and interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications. The provision for loan losses is determined by management as the amount to be added to the allowance for loan losses after net charge-offs have been deducted to bring the allowance to a level considered adequate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio. The amount of the provision is based on management's regular review of the loan portfolio and consideration of such factors as historical loss experience, general prevailing economic conditions, changes in size and composition of the loan portfolio and specific borrower considerations, including ability of the borrower to repay the loan and the estimated value of the underlying collateral. Provisions for loan losses totaled $36,000 for the year ended September 30, 2000 compared to $30,000 for the year ended September 30, 1999. The provision for loan losses is based on management's assessment of risk factors affecting the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses was approximately .13% and .11% of total loans as of September 30, 2000 and 1999. Non-Interest Income Non-interest income totaled $49,000 for the year ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $55,000 for the year ended September 30, 1999. Non-interest income decreased slightly due to a gain recognized on the sale of real estate owned in fiscal 1999. Non-Interest Expense Non-interest expense increased $224,000, or 11.1% , from $2.0 million for the year ended September 30, 1999 to $2.2 million for the year ended September 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefits and professional services. The increase in salary and benefits was due to annual merit raises and additional recognition and retention plan ("RRP") expense recognize for additional shares earned in 2000. The Company has incurred approximately $292,000 in professional fees related to the proposed sale. Income Taxes The change in income tax expense is primarily attributable to the change in net income before income taxes. Income tax expense totaled $750,000, or an effective rate of 35.0% for the year ended September 30, 2000, compared to $937,000, or an effective rate of 35.5% for the year ended September 30, 1999. Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998 General The Company's net income is primarily dependent on its net interest income (the difference between interest income generated on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities). Net income is also affected by provisions for loan losses, service charges, gains on sale of assets and other income, noninterest expense and income taxes. The Company's net income was $1,703,000 and $1,652,000 for the years ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. Interest Income Interest income increased $457,000, or 5.3%, from $8.7 million for the year ended September 30, 1998 to $9.1 million for the year ended September 30, 1999. The increase in interest income resulted primarily from an increase in interest and fees on loans. Such increase was due to higher average loan balances related to the origination of new one- to four-family real estate loans. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in interest and dividends on securities and interest-bearing deposits. The decrease in these investments resulted from a decrease in the volume of securities and deposits in the current year as the majority of the proceeds from principal payments have been reinvested in higher yielding loans. 35 Interest Expense Interest expense increased $444,000, or 11.0%, from $4.0 million for the year ended September 30, 1998 to $4.5 million for the year ended September 30, 1999. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in the volume of FHLB advances during 1999. The Company began using FHLB advances in fiscal 1998 to fund the Bank's loan growth. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on deposits due to a lower cost of funds on certificates of deposit. Net Interest Income Net interest income is the largest component of the Company's income and is affected by the interest rate environment and volume and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income increased slightly by $13,000 to $4.6 million for the year ended September 30, 1999. The Bank's continued growth is reflected by an increase in average interest-earning assets. However, net interest income does not correspond to this growth as interest-bearing liabilities have repriced more quickly than their interest-earning assets. This trend is evidenced by the decrease in the net interest rate spread from 3.07% for the year ended September 30, 1998 to 2.94% for the year ended September 30, 1999. Provision for Loan Losses Provisions for loan losses totaled $30,000 for the year ended September 30, 1999 compared to $12,000 for the year ended September 30, 1998. The provision for loan losses is based on management's assessment of risk factors affecting the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses was approximately 0.11% and 0.12% of total loans as of September 30, 1999 and 1998. Management believes the allowance for loan loss is adequate to absorb probable losses; however, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. Non-Interest Income Non-interest income totaled $55,000 for the year ended September 30, 1999 as compared to $51,000 for the year ended September 30, 1998. Non-interest income increased slightly due to a gain recognized on the sale of real estate owned. Non-Interest Expense Non-interest expense increased $96,000, or 5.0%, from $1.9 million for the year ended September 30, 1998 to $2.0 million for the year ended September 30, 1999. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefits and data processing services, partially offset by a decrease in franchise taxes. The increase in salary and benefits was due to annual merit raises and additional RRP expense recognized from an increase in stock prices. The decrease in franchise taxes for fiscal 1999 resulted from a decrease in equity of the Company due to the stock repurchase. Income Taxes The change in income tax expense is primarily attributable to the change in net income before income taxes. Income tax expense totaled $937,000, or an effective rate of 35.5% for the year ended September 30, 1999, compared to $1,085,000, or an effective rate of 39.6% for the year ended September 30, 1998. 36 Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999 General The Company's assets totaled $136.6 million at September 30, 2000, an increase of $8.4 million, or 6.6%, from $128.2 million at September 30, 1999. The growth in assets was primarily in loans, partly offset by a decrease in securities. Such loan growth was funded by borrowed funds and the decrease in securities. Securities Total securities decreased $1.6 million from $8.7 million at September 30, 1999, to $7.1 million at September 30, 2000. The decrease was due to maturities and principal payments being reinvested in higher yielding loans. Loans Net loans increased $9.6 million, or 8.5%, from $113.3 million at September 30, 1999 to $122.9 million at September 30, 2000. The growth in loans was primarily in one- to four-family real estate loans, which increased $6.9 million, or 6.9%, during the period. Growth in real estate loans is primarily related to growth in the Company's market area. Changes in other types of loans were not significant. Deposits Total deposits increased $2.9 million, or 3.8%, from $76.8 million at September 30, 1999 to $79.7 million at September 30, 2000. The increase primarily resulted from an increase in certificates of deposit of $4.0 million. Borrowings Borrowings from the FHLB totaled $30.0 million at September 30, 2000, an increase of $5.0 million from September 30, 1999. Management has increased its use of FHLB advances as an alternative source of funds in order to continue to meet loan demand and greater leverage the capital of the Company. Equity Shareholders' equity totaled $26.0 million at September 30, 2000, an increase of $500,000 from $25.5 million at September 30, 1999. Equity as a percentage of assets decreased from 19.9% at September 30, 1999 to 19.0% at September 30, 2000. The decrease was primarily the result of the overall growth of the Company and the purchase of 53,409 shares of its common stock on the secondary market. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and securities, and proceeds from the maturation of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Company's bank subsidiary maintains a liquidity ratio above the regulatory requirement. This requirement, which may be varied at the direction of the OTS depending upon economic conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings. The required ratio is currently 4%. The Bank's average regulatory liquidity ratios were 10.30% and 12.2%, for the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio increased immediately after the consummation of the Conversion because the bulk of the net conversion proceeds was initially invested in short-term investment securities and subsequently decreased as the proceeds were used to fund loan growth. 37 The Company's cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. Cash flows provided by operating activities were $1.7 million, $2.0 million and $1.9 million for the years ended September 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Net cash from investing activities consisted primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of investments and mortgage- backed securities, offset by principal collections on loans and proceeds from maturation of investments and paydowns on mortgage-backed securities. Net cash from financing activities consisted primarily of activity in deposit accounts, increases in FHLB advances, cash dividends paid and treasury stock transactions. The net increase in deposits was $2.9 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, while there was a net increase in deposits of $2.2 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999 and a net decrease in deposits of $1.7 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998. At September 30, 2000, the Company's bank subsidiary exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements with a tangible capital level of $16.2 million, or 11.9%, of adjusted total assets, which is above the required level of $2.0 million, or 1.5%; core capital of $16.2 million, or 11.9%, of adjusted total assets, which is above the required level of $4.1 million, or 3.0%; and risk-based capital of $16.4 million, or 22.1%, of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of $5.9 million, or 8.0%. The Bank's most liquid assets are cash and short-term investments. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Bank's operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At September 30, 2000, cash and short-term investments totaled $3.7 million. The Bank has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises, including securities maturing within one year and the repayment of loans. The Bank may also utilize FHLB advances or the sale of securities available for sale as a source of funds. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had $30.0 million of advances outstanding from the FHLB and $1.3 million of mortgage-backed securities available for sale. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had outstanding commitments to originate mortgage loans of $4.7 million compared to $2.9 million at September 30, 1999. The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan origination commitments. Certificate accounts which are scheduled to mature in less than one year from September 30, 2000 totaled $39.9 million. The Bank expects that a substantial portion of the maturing certificate accounts will be retained by the Bank at maturity. However, if a substantial portion of these deposits are not retained, the Bank may utilize Federal Home Loan Bank advances, or raise interest rates on deposits to attract new accounts, which may result in higher levels of interest expense. Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices The Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollar amounts without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Bank's operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the assets and liabilities of the Bank are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Bank's performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods and services. Impact of New Accounting Standards Recent pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") will have an impact on financial statement issued in subsequent periods. Set forth below are summaries of such pronouncements. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138, addresses the accounting for derivative instruments and certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. The statement standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments by requiring that an entity recognize those items as assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure them at fair value. This is not expected to have a material effect as the Company does not currently maintain any derivative holdings. 38 Forward-Looking Statements This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. - --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to direct and indirect market risk. Direct market risk exists from changes in interest rates. To the extent that interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities mature at different intervals, changes in market interest rates can result in increases or decreases in net interest income. This is also known as interest rate risk. Indirect market risk exists to the extent that the Company has a concentration of loans secured by similar assets and the market for those assets deteriorates. The Company's primary risk of decline in the value of collateral relates to the fact that a substantial portion of the Company's loans are secured by residential real estate located within the local market area of the Company. The Company manages the risk of decline in the value of the collateral by requiring minimum loan to value ratios for the real estate loans it originates. In addition, the Company always gives consideration to the credit worthiness of the borrower in addition to depending on the value of the collateral when underwriting loans. Direct exposure to interest rate risk is more significant than indirect market risk and the Company monitors this risk through a periodic quantitative analysis. The principal objective of the Bank's interest rate risk management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk included in certain balance sheet accounts, determine the level of risk appropriate given the Bank's business focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements and performance objectives, and manage the risk consistent with Board approved guidelines. Through such management, the Bank seeks to reduce the vulnerability of its operations to changes in interest rates. The Bank monitors its interest rate risk as such risk relates to its operating strategies. The Bank's Board of Directors reviews on a quarterly basis the Bank's asset/liability position, including simulations of the effect on the Bank's capital of various interest rate scenarios. Net Portfolio Value. The Bank's interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through the use of a model which estimates the change in net portfolio value ("NPV") over a range of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. An NPV Ratio, in any interest rate scenario, is defined as the NPV in that scenario divided by the market value of assets in the same scenario. The Sensitivity Measure is the decline in the NPV Ratio, in basis points, caused by a 200 basis point (one basis point equals 0.01%) increase or decrease in rates, whichever produces a larger decline. The higher an institution's Sensitivity Measure is, the greater its exposure to interest rate risk is considered to be. The Bank utilizes a market value model prepared by the OTS (the "OTS NPV model"), which is prepared quarterly, based on the Bank's quarterly Thrift Financial Reports filed with the OTS. The OTS NPV model measures the Bank's interest rate risk by approximating the 39 Bank's NPV under various market interest rate scenarios which range from a 300 basis point increase to a 300 basis point decrease in market interest rates. The following table shows the NPV and projected change in the NPV of the Bank at September 30, 2000 assuming an instantaneous and sustained change in market interest rates of 100, 200 and 300 basis points, as calculated by the OTS. The table indicates that the structure of the Bank's assets and liabilities would result in a decline in the Bank's NPV in a rising rate environment. Specifically, the table indicates that, at September 30, 2000, the Bank's NPV was $16.6 million (or 12.5% of the market value of portfolio assets) and that, based upon the assumptions utilized, an immediate increase in market interest rates of 200 basis points would result in a $7.2 million or 44% decline in the Bank's NPV and would result in a 500 basis point or 39.9% decline in the Bank's NPV ratio to 7.5%. 2000 NPV as % of Portfolio Net Portfolio Value Value of Assets ----------------------------------- ----------------------------- (Dollars in thousands) Change NPV in Rates $ Amount $ Change % Change Ratio % Change - ----------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ---------- ------------- 300 bp $ 5,896 $(10,721) 65% 4.90% 60.9% 200 bp 9,357 (7,259) 44 7.52 39.9 100 bp 12,981 (3,635) 22 10.10 19.3 Static 16,616 12.52 (100) bp 19,774 3,158 19 14.50 15.8 (200) bp 21,600 4,984 30 15.58 24.4 (300) bp 22,840 6,224 37 16.27 30.0 1999 NPV as % of Portfolio Net Portfolio Value Value of Assets ----------------------------------- ----------------------------- (Dollars in thousands) Change NPV in Rates $ Amount $ Change % Change Ratio % Change - ----------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ---------- ------------- 300 bp $ 6,310 $(8,768) 58% 5.34% 54.1% 200 bp 9,328 (5,750) 38 7.64 34.4 100 bp 12,349 (2,730) 18 9.81 15.7 Static 15,079 11.64 (100) bp 16,934 1,856 12 12.79 9.9 (200) bp 17,829 2,750 18 13.28 14.1 (300) bp 18,475 3,396 23 13.59 16.8 Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV requires the making of certain assumptions that may tend to oversimplify the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. First, the models assume that the composition of the Bank's interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured. Second, the models assume that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Third, the models do not take into account the impact of the Bank's business or strategic plans on the structure of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Accordingly, although the NPV measurement provides an indication of the Bank's interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurement is not intended to and does not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on the Bank's net interest income and will differ from actual results. The results of this modeling are monitored by management and presented to the Board of Directors quarterly. 40 Item 8.

(Delphos) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens Bank of Delphos (Bank), together referred to as the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Nature of Operations: The Company, through the Bank, is engaged in the business - -------------------- of banking with operations conducted through its office located in Delphos, Ohio. The Company originates and holds primarily residential and consumer loans to customers throughout the Allen and Van Wert County area in Northwest Ohio, which generates the majority of the Company's income. The Company's primary deposit products are interest-bearing checking accounts and certificates of deposit. There are no branch operations. Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with generally - ---------------- accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, fair values of financial instruments and status of contingencies are particularly subject to change. Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, - ------------------------- amounts due from depository institutions and interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions. Net cash flows are reported for loan and deposit transactions. 50 Securities: Securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at - ---------- amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income. Other securities such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock are carried at cost. Interest income includes amortization of purchase premiums and discounts. Gains and losses on sales are based on the amortized cost of the security sold. Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is not temporary. Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the - ----- foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balances outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs, loans in process and an allowance for loan losses. Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes the amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due over 90 days (180 days for residential mortgages). Payments received on such loans are reported as principal reductions. Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation - ------------------------- allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries. Management estimates the allowance balance required based on past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management's judgment, should be charged-off. A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer and credit card loans, and on an individual basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loans are reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan's existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Foreclosed Assets: Assets acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are - ----------------- initially recorded at fair value when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs after acquisition are expensed. Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are - ---------------------- stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed over the assets useful lives on a straight line basis. These assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Maintenance and repairs are expensed and major improvements are capitalized. Stock Compensation: Employee compensation expense under the stock option plans - ------------------ is reported if options are granted below market price at grant date. Pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share are shown using the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 to measure expense using an option pricing model to estimate fair value. Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due - ------------ or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. 51 Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit - --------------------- instruments, such as commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount of these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. Earnings Per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share is net income divided - ------------------------- by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") shares are considered to be outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP") shares are considered outstanding as they become vested. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of RRP shares and the additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other - -------------------- comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, which is also recognized as a separate component shareholders' equity. New Accounting Pronouncement: Beginning October 1, 2000, a new accounting - ---------------------------- standard will require all derivatives to be recorded at fair value. Unless designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be recorded in the income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will generally be recorded by offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the hedged item, even if the fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise recorded. This is not expected to have a material effect, but the effect will depend on derivative holdings when this standard applies. Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions - ------------------ arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements. Restrictions on Cash: The Company was required to have $591,000 and $653,000 of - -------------------- cash on hand or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank to meet regulatory reserve and clearing balance requirements at year end 2000 and 1999. These balances do not earn interest. Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital - -------------------- levels that may limit the amount of dividends paid by the Bank to Delphos or by Delphos to shareholders. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are - ----------------------------------- estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk: The Bank grants loans to customers located - ---------------------------- primarily in Allen and Van Wert counties.

As a member, the Bank has the ability to obtain advances from the FHLB. The Bank had variable rate borrowings totaling $20,000,000, with interest rates of 6.90% at September 30, 2000 and $15,000,000 at September 30, 1999, with interest rates ranging from 5.15% to 5.77%. The Bank had fixed rate borrowings totaling $10,000,000, with interest rates ranging from 4.61% to 6.49% at September 30, 2000 and $10,000,000 at September 30, 1999, with an interest rates ranging from 4.61% to 5.12%. The maximum month-end balance of FHLB advances outstanding was $30,000,000 in 2000 and $25,000,000 in 1999. Average balances of borrowings outstanding during fiscal 1999 and 1998 were $27,655,000 and $16,307,000. Qualifying first mortgage loans and FHLB stock owned by the Bank totaling $45,000,000 and $1,631,000 at September 30, 2000 and $37,500,000 and $1,250,000 at September 30, 1999 were pledged as collateral for FHLB advances.

The amount of the bad debt reserve deduction for "nonqualifying loans" was computed under the experience method. The amount of bad debt reserve deduction for "qualifying real property loans" could be computed under either the experience method or the percentage of taxable income method, based on an annual election. 56 DELPHOS CITIZENS BANCORP, INC. NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES (Continued) In August 1996, legislation was enacted that repeals the percentage of taxable income method of accounting used by many thrifts to calculate their bad debt reserve for federal income tax purposes. As a result, thrifts such as the Bank must recapture that portion of the reserve that exceeds the amount that could have been taken under the experience method for tax years beginning after December 31, 1987. The legislation also requires thrifts to account for bad debts for federal income tax purposes on the same basis as commercial banks for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995. The recapture occurs over a six-year period, the commencement of which was delayed until the first taxable-year beginning after December 31, 1998, provided the institution meets certain residential lending requirements. At September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Bank had $484,285 and $605,357 in bad debt reserves subject to recapture for federal income tax purposes. The deferred tax liability related to the recapture has been previously established. In fiscal 2000 and 1999, $121,072 bad debt reserves were recaptured. Retained earnings at September 30, 2000 and 1999, include approximately $1,860,000 for which no provision for federal income taxes has been made. This amount represents the qualifying and nonqualifying tax bad debt reserve as of December 31, 1987, the Company's base year for calculating the bad debt deduction for tax purposes. The related amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability was $631,000 at September 30, 2000 and 1999. If this portion of retained earnings is used in the future for any purpose other than to absorb bad debts, it will be added to future taxable income. NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS, OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONTINGENCIES Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are arrangements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit losses exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had commitments to make loans at market rates of $4,748,000. Of these commitments, $1,207,000 had fixed rates ranging from 8.00% to 8.875%, and $3,541,000 had variable rates. The commitment period ranged from 30 to 90 days. As of September 30, 1999, the Company had commitments to make loans at market rates of $2,945,000. Of these commitments, $688,000 had fixed rates ranging from 7.50% to 8.50%, and $2,257,000 had variable rates. Since loan commitments may expire without being used, the amount does not necessarily represent future cash commitments. The Company and the Bank have entered an employment agreement with the chief executive officer of the Company and the Bank. The agreement provides for a term of three years and a salary and performance review by the Board of Directors not less than annually, as well as inclusion of the employee in any formally established employee benefit, bonus, pension and profit-sharing plans for which management personnel are eligible. 57 DELPHOS CITIZENS BANCORP, INC. NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS, OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued) During fiscal 2000, the Board of Directors approved the Citizens Bank of Delphos Employee Severance Compensation Plan to provide benefits to eligible employees in the event of a change in control. Generally, eligible employees are those employees who have completed twelve consecutive moths of service with the Bank. Under the Plan, participants terminated in conjunction with a change in control will be entitled to receive a severance benefit equal to 1/26/th/ of their annual compensation for each year of service up to a maximum of 100% of the participant's annual compensation. Pursuant to the Affiliation Agreement by and between United Bancshares, Inc. and Delphos Citizens Bancorp, Inc. dated August 25, 2000, the Delphos Employee Severance Compensation Plan was terminated as of August 25, 2000. NOTE 9 - PROFIT SHARING The Company sponsors a 401(k) profit sharing plan for eligible employees. Under the plan, employees who are at least 21 1/2 years of age and have completed six months of service are eligible to participate. Employees may contribute up to 10% of their annual pre-tax compensation. The Bank may contribute as a matching contribution, a discretionary percentage of up to 6% of the employees' contribution. The Company may also make special discretionary contributions equal to a percentage of the employees' compensation. Participants become 100% vested as to the Bank's contributions after five years of service. The contribution expense included in compensation and benefits was $5,801, $18,543, and $5,474 for 2000, 1999 and 1998. NOTE 10 - EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN Effective December 31, 1996, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") for the benefit of employees 21 and older and who have completed at least one year of service and 1,000 hours of work. Contributions under the ESOP are conditioned upon the ESOP being qualified under Sections 401 and 501 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). To fund the plan, the ESOP borrowed $1,630,970 from the Company for the purposes of purchasing 163,097 shares of stock at $10 per share when the Company converted to stock. Principal and interest payments on the loan are due in annual installments that began December 31, 1996, with the final payments of principal and interest being due and payable at maturity on December 31, 2013. Interest is payable during the term of the loan at a fixed rate of 8.25%. The loan is collateralized by the shares of the Company's common stock purchased with the proceeds. As the Bank periodically makes contributions to the ESOP to repay the loan, shares will be allocated to participants on the basis of the ratio of each year's principal and interest payments to the total of all principal and interest payments. The shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the consolidated balance sheet. As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings, while dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt. ESOP compensation was $139,862, $169,392, and $190,981 for 2000, 1999 and 1998. 58 DELPHOS CITIZENS BANCORP, INC.

The option period expires 10 years from the date of grant. Vesting of options granted to officers and directors is determined at the time of the grant, generally four to five years after the date of the grant. A summary of activity in the plan is as follows. 2000 1999 1998 ------------------------ ------------------------ ------------------------- Weighted Weighted Weighted Average Average Average Exercise Exercise Exercise Shares Price Shares Price Shares Price ----------- --------- ----------- -------- ----------- --------- Outstanding at beginning of year 117,225 $ 14.29 117,225 $ 14.29 112,128 $ 14.00 Granted 3,823 13.00 -- -- 5,097 20.75 Exercised -- -- -- -- -- -- Forfeited -- -- -- -- -- -- ----------- --------- ----------- ------- ----------- --------- Outstanding at end of year 121,048 $ 14.25 117,225 $ 14.29 117,225 $ 14.29 =========== ========= =========== ======= =========== ========= Options exercisable at year end 71,100 $ 14.22 46,125 $ 14.19 22,426 $ 14.00 =========== ========= =========== ======= =========== ========= Options outstanding at year-end 2000 were as follows.

The RRP is being used as a means of providing directors and certain key employees of the Bank with an ownership interest in the Company in a manner designed to reward and retain such directors and key employees. The Company contributed $1,270,735 to enable the RRP to purchase 81,549 shares in the open market during the year ended September 30, 1997. The Board granted 43,222 shares to directors, officers and employees on May 28, 1997. The shares vest at a rate of 20% per year on the anniversary date of the grant. The Board granted an additional 21,317 and 2,378 shares in 2000 and 1998 and those shares vest at a rate of 33 1/3% per year for the 2000 grant and 25% per year for the 1998 grant on the anniversary date of the grant. Compensation expense, which is based on the cost of the shares, was $275,591, $135,432 and $129,256 for 2000, 1999 and 1998. The unamortized unearned compensation value of the RRP is shown as a reduction to shareholders' equity. NOTE 13 - REGULATORY MATTERS Banks are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal regulatory agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately 60 capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required. Actual and required capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios are presented below at year end: To Be Well Capitalized Under For Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Regulations ----------------- ------------------ Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ------ ------ ------ ----- ------ ----- 2000 - ---- Total capital to risk weighted assets $ 16,399 22.11% $ 5,934 8.00% $ 7,417 10.0% Tier 1 (core) capital to risk weighted assets 16,234 21.89 2,967 4.00 4,450 6.00 Tier 1 (core) capital to adjusted total assets 16,234 11.88 4,099 3.00 6,831 5.00 Tangible capital to adjusted total assets 16,234 11.88 2,049 1.50 N/A N/A 1999 - ---- Total capital to risk weighted assets $ 12,444 18.06% $ 5,512 8.00% $ 6,890 10.00% Tier 1 (core) capital to risk weighted assets 12,311 17.87 2,756 4.00 4,134 6.00 Tier 1 (core) capital to adjusted total assets 12,311 9.60 3,848 3.00 6,413 5.00 Tangible capital to adjusted total assets 12,311 9.60 1,924 1.50 N/A N/A Banking regulations limit capital distributions by banks. Generally, capital distributions are limited to the current year to date undistributed net income and prior two years' undistributed net income, as long as the institution remains well capitalized after the proposed distribution. At September 30, 2000 and 1999, approximately $177,000 was available to pay dividends to Delphos. NOTE 14 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Carrying amount and estimated fair values of financial instruments were as follows at year end: 2000 1999 ---- ---- Estimated Estimated Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ----- ----- ----- ----- Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,686,551 $ 3,687,000 $ 3,700,277 $ 3,700,000 Securities available for sale 1,309,631 1,310,000 1,864,283 1,864,000 Securities held to maturity 5,772,169 5,850,000 6,804,708 6,933,000 FHLB Stock 1,631,300 1,631,000 1,250,000 1,250,000 Loans, net 122,888,483 120,347,000 113,272,857 112,278,000 Accrued interest receivable 653,799 654,000 573,048 573,000 Financial Liabilities Deposits $ (79,733,886) $ (79,369,000) $ (76,840,590) $ (76,843,000) FHLB advances (30,000,000) (28,361,000) (25,000,000) (24,712,000) Accrued interest payable (206,091) (206,000) (52,734) (53,000) 61 The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows: Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, short-term borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt and variable-rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes and, if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about the issuer. For fixed-rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values. Fair value of debt is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is based on current fees or cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements. While these estimates of fair value are based on management's judgment of the most appropriate factors as of the balance sheet date, there is no assurance that the estimated fair values would have been realized if the assets had been disposed of or the liabilities settled at that date, since market values may differ depending on various circumstances. The estimated fair values would also not apply to subsequent dates. In addition, other assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments, such as property and equipment, are not included in the above disclosures. Also, nonfinancial instruments typically not recognized on the balance sheet may have value but are not included in the above disclosures.
