PART I
ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
United Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on May 31, 1985 as a
business corporation under the Michigan Business Corporation Act, pursuant to
the authorization and direction of the Directors of United Bank & Trust
("UBT").
The Company is a financial holding company registered with the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board") under the
Bank Holding Company Act. The Company has corporate power to engage in such
activities as permitted to business corporations under the Michigan Business
Corporation Act, subject to the limitations of the Bank Holding Company Act and
regulations of the Federal Reserve System. In general, the Bank Holding Company
Act and regulations restrict the Company with respect to its own activities and
activities of any subsidiaries to the business of banking or such other
activities which are closely related to the business of banking.
United Savings Bank (the "Bank") opened in 1933 as a result of a merging of
charters of Lilley State Bank and Tecumseh State Savings Bank. Since that time,
the Bank has grown from a single office in Tecumseh to sixteen offices located
in three counties in Southeast Michigan. The Bank changed its name to United
Bank & Trust on January 1, 1992, at the time it acquired Thompson Savings Bank
in Hudson, and UBT was acquired by the Company on January 1, 1986.
UBT delivers financial services through a system of sixteen banking offices
plus fifteen automated teller machines, all in Lenawee, Washtenaw, and Monroe
Counties, Michigan. The business base of the area is primarily agricultural and
light manufacturing, with its manufacturing sector exhibiting moderate
dependence on the automotive and refrigeration and air conditioning industries.
In November of 2000, the Company filed applications with its regulators for
permission to establish a second bank as a subsidiary of the Company. United
Bank & Trust - Washtenaw ("UBTW") opened for business on April 2, 2001, and is
headquartered in Ann Arbor. UBTW operates with its own local management and
board of directors, and targets the Washtenaw County market for its growth.
Banking services are delivered by UBTW through one banking office and one
off-site automated teller machine in Washtenaw County, Michigan. The employment
base of Washtenaw County is centered around health care, education and
automotive high technology. Economic stability is provided to a great extent by
the University of Michigan, which is a major employer and is not as
economically sensitive to the fluctuations of the automotive industry. The
services and public sectors account for a substantial percentage of total
industry employment, in a large part due to the University of Michigan and the
U of M Medical Center.
The Company's subsidiary banks (the "Banks") offer a full range of services to
individuals, corporations, fiduciaries and other institutions. Banking services
include checking, NOW accounts, savings, time deposit accounts, money market
deposit accounts, safe deposit facilities and money transfers. Lending
operations provide real estate loans, secured and unsecured business and
personal loans, consumer installment loans, credit card and check-credit loans,
home equity loans, accounts receivable and inventory financing, equipment lease
financing and construction financing.
The Banks maintain correspondent bank relationships with a small number of
larger banks, which involve check clearing operations, securities safekeeping,
transfer of funds, loan participation, and the purchase and sale of federal
funds and other similar services. UBTW also maintains a correspondent banking
relationship with UBT.
Page 3
The Company's Banks offer the sale of nondeposit investment products through
licensed representatives in their banking offices, and sell credit and life
insurance products. In addition, the Company and/or the Banks are co-owners of
Michigan Banker's Title Insurance Company of Mid-Michigan LLC and Michigan
Bankers Insurance Center, LLC, and derive income from the sale of various
insurance products to banking clients.
The following table shows comparative information concerning the Banks as of
December 31, 2002, in thousands of dollars:
Assets Loans Deposits
--------- --------- ---------
United Bank & Trust $ 530,949 $ 375,880 $ 437,933
United Bank & Trust - Washtenaw 60,304 54,646 37,592
UBT operates a trust department, and provides trust services to UBTW on a
contract basis. The Trust & Investment Group offers a wide variety of fiduciary
services to individuals, corporations and governmental entities, including
services as trustee for personal, corporate, pension, profit sharing and other
employee benefit trusts. The department provides securities custody services as
an agent, acts as the personal representative for estates and as a fiscal,
paying and escrow agent for corporate customers and governmental entities, and
provides trust services for clients of the Banks.
Supervision and Regulation
As a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act,
the Company is required by said Act to file quarterly and annual reports of its
operations and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may
require and is subject, along with its subsidiaries, to examination by the
Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve is the primary regulator of the
Company.
The Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain
prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it may merge with or
consolidate into another bank holding company, acquire substantially all the
assets of any bank, or acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any
bank if after such acquisition it would own or control, directly or indirectly,
more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank holding company or bank. The
Federal Reserve Board may not approve the acquisition by the Company of voting
shares or substantially all the assets of any bank located in any state other
than Michigan unless the laws of such other state specifically authorize such
an acquisition. The Bank Holding Company Act also prohibits a bank holding
company, with certain exceptions, from acquiring direct or indirect ownership
or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is not a
bank and from engaging in any business other than that of banking, managing and
controlling banks or furnishing services to banks and their subsidiaries.
However, holding companies may engage in, and may own shares of companies
engaged in, certain businesses found by the Federal Reserve Board to be so
closely related to banking or the management or control of banks as to be a
proper incident thereto.
Under current regulations of the Board of Governors, a holding company and its
nonbank subsidiaries are permitted, among other activities, to engage, subject
to certain specified limitations, in such banking related business ventures as
sales and consumer finance, equipment leasing, computer service bureau and
software operations, data processing and services transmission, discount
securities brokerage, insurance, mortgage banking and brokerage, sale and
leaseback and other forms of real estate banking. The Bank Holding Company Act
does not place territorial restrictions on the activities of nonbank
subsidiaries of bank holding
Page 4
companies. In addition, federal legislation prohibits acquisition of "control"
of a bank or bank holding company without prior notice to certain federal bank
regulators. "Control" in certain cases may include the acquisition of as little
as 10% of the outstanding shares of capital stock.
In March of 2000, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "GLB Act") was
enacted. Under the act, new opportunities became available for banks and other
depository institutions, insurance companies and securities firms to enter into
combinations that permit a single financial services organization to offer
customers a more complete array of financial products and services. The GLB Act
provides a new regulatory framework for regulation through the "financial
holding company," with the Federal Reserve Board as the umbrella regulator.
Functional regulation of the separately regulated subsidiaries of a financial
holding company will be conducted by their primary functional regulator.
In order to qualify as a financial holding company, a bank holding company must
file an election to become a financial holding company and each of its banks
must be "well capitalized" and "well managed." In addition, the GLB Act
requires satisfactory or above Community Reinvestment Act compliance for
insured depository institutions and their financial holding companies in order
for them to engage in new financial activities. The GLB Act provides a federal
right to privacy of non-public personal information of individual customers.
The Company and its Banks are also subject to certain state laws that deal with
the use and distribution of non-public personal information. The Company
believes that the GLB Act could significantly increase competition in its
business, and the Company elected to become a financial holding company during
2000.
Michigan's banking laws restrict the payment of cash dividends by a state bank
by providing, subject to certain exceptions, that dividends may be paid only
out of net profits then on hand after deducting therefrom its losses and bad
debts and no dividends may be paid unless the bank will have a surplus
amounting to not less than twenty percent (20%) of its capital after the
payment of the dividend.
UBT and UBTW are Michigan banking corporations, and as such are subject to the
regulation of, and supervision and regular examination by, the Michigan
Division of Financial Institutions ("DFI") and also the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The DFI is the primary regulator of the Banks.
Deposit accounts of the Banks are insured by the FDIC. Requirements and
restrictions under the laws of the United States and the State of Michigan
include the requirement that banks maintain reserves against certain deposits,
restrictions on the nature and amount of loans which may be made by a bank and
the interest that may be charged thereon, restrictions on the payment of
interest on certain deposits and restrictions relating to investments and other
activities of a bank.
The Federal Reserve Board has established guidelines for risk-based capital by
bank holding companies. These guidelines establish a risk adjusted ratio
relating capital to risk-weighted assets and off-balance-sheet exposures. These
capital guidelines primarily define the components of capital, categorize
assets into different risk classes, and include certain off-balance-sheet items
in the calculation of capital requirements. Tier I capital consists of
shareholders' equity less intangible assets and unrealized gain or loss on
securities available for sale, and Tier 2 capital consists of Tier 1 capital
plus qualifying loan loss reserves.
The capital ratios of the Company and Banks exceed the regulatory guidelines
for well capitalized institutions, and in conjunction with regulatory ratings,
have qualified the Bank for the lowest FDIC insurance rate available to insured
financial institutions. Information in Note 18 on Page A-35 of the Company's
Proxy provides additional information regarding the Company's capital ratios,
and is incorporated herein by reference.
Information regarding accounting standards adopted by the Company are discussed
beginning on Page A-24 of the Company's Proxy, and is incorporated herein by
reference.
Page 5
Competition
The banking business in the Company's service area is highly competitive. In
its market, the Banks compete with credit unions, savings associations, and
various finance companies and loan production offices. This competition is in
addition to a number of community banks and subsidiaries of large multi-state,
multi-bank holding companies.
The Company believes that the market perceives a competitive benefit to an
independent, locally controlled commercial bank. Much of the Company's
competition comes from affiliates of organizations controlled from outside the
area. Against these competitors, the subsidiary banks continue to expand their
loan and deposit portfolios. Coupled with the fact that the Company offers the
only locally-based trust department in Lenawee County, this local focus has
provided a significant competitive advantage.
Employees
On December 31, 2002, the Company and its subsidiaries employed 183 full-time
and 52 part-time employees. This compares to 188 full time and 54 part time
employees as of December 31, 2001. The Company has no full time employees. Its
operation and business are carried out by officers and employees of the Banks,
who are not compensated by the Company.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
Management to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management's
determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an
Page 8
evaluation of the portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic
conditions, volume, amount and composition of the loan portfolio, and other
factors. The provision charged to earnings was $1,105,000 in 2002, compared to
$722,000 in 2001 and $1,129,000 in 2000. The allowance is based on the analysis
of the loan portfolio and a four year historical average of net charge offs to
average loans of 0.15% of the portfolio.
(B) ALLOCATION OF ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The following table presents the portion of the allowance for loan losses
applicable to each loan category in thousands of dollars, as of December 31. A
table showing the percent of loans in each category to total loans is included
