ITEM 2- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion provides information about the consolidated financial condition
and results of operations of United Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary, United
Bank & Trust ("Bank") for the nine month period ending September 30, 1997.

                             FINANCIAL CONDITION

SECURITIES

Investment balances increased during the third quarter of 1997, and are up $4
million year to date. For the quarter, maturities have generally been replaced,
and additions have been made to the portfolio in anticipation of approximately
$15 million of deposits which are expected to be added through a branch
purchase in the fourth quarter of 1997. The mix of the investment portfolio
remained relatively unchanged from prior periods.

LOANS

Loan volume continued to be strong during the second and third quarters
of 1997, following declines in the first quarter of the year. All
categories of loans enjoyed strong growth during the quarter and year to date,
reflecting the economic activity of the area.

The mix of the loan portfolio has remained relatively unchanged from prior
periods, although the general trend is toward an increased percentage of
personal and business loans, with slight declines in tax exempt and residential
mortgage loans. The table below shows total loans outstanding, in thousands of
dollars, at September 30 and December 31,  and their percentage of the total
loan portfolio. All loans are domestic and contain no concentrations by
industry or customer.

CREDIT QUALITY

The Company continues to maintain a high level of asset quality compared to
peers, as a result of actively monitoring delinquencies, nonperforming assets
and potential problem loans. In addition, the Bank uses an independent loan
review firm to assess the continued quality of its business loan portfolio.

Nonperforming loans are comprised of (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual
basis; (2) loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or
principal payments (but not included in the nonaccrual loans in (1) above); and
(3) other loans whose terms have been renegotiated to provide a

   8

reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of a deterioration in
the financial position of the borrower (exclusive of loans in (1) or (2) above).
The aggregate amount of nonperforming loans, in thousands of dollars, is shown
in the table below. The Company's classification of nonperforming loans are
generally consistent with loans identified as impaired.

Nonperforming loans decreased from June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996. Loans
past due ninety days or more and nonaccrual loans declined during the quarter,
in spite of continued loan growth.  Overall, nonperforming loans as a percent
of total loans remain well below industry standards, although higher than
traditionally experienced by the Company. The amount listed for other real
estate relates primarily to property that has been leased to a third party with
an option to purchase, and no loss is anticipated on that property. The Company
has no troubled debt restructurings.

The Company has increased its provision for loan losses over 1996 as a result
of the increase in loan delinquency. An analysis of the allowance for loan
losses, in thousands of dollars, for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
and 1996 follows:



                                                     1997             1996

   Balance at beginning of period                  $ 2,320          $ 2,197
   Loans charged off                                  (702)            (378)
   Recoveries credited to allowance                     52               59
   Provision charged to operations                     600              378
                                                   -------          -------
   Balance at end of period                        $ 2,270          $ 2,256


The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
Management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio.

DEPOSITS

Total deposits are up for the quarter and year to date. Noninterest bearing and
interest bearing balances continue to fluctuate with swings in corporate and
public fund balances. In August, the Bank opened its first office outside of
Lenawee County, and deposit growth at that office was reflected to a small
degree in the increases in deposit balances during the third quarter. The
office, located in Saline, Michigan, is the Bank's fourteenth office.

The category of other interest bearing deposit balances enjoyed the greatest
growth during the quarter, reflecting continued growth in Cash Management and
Certificates of Deposit accounts. Other interest bearing deposits remain
relatively flat year to date. Management anticipates that deposit growth during
the remainder of 1997 will be steady, with anticipated growth from new markets,
as well as from consumer re-entry into the certificate of deposit market.

                                    Page 8
   9
The Bank has reached an agreement with NBD Bank to purchase its Dundee,
Michigan office, and has applied for regulatory approval to consummate that
purchase. If approved, the acquisition of the office will provide approximately
$15 million of additional deposits, and will afford the Bank its first entry
into Monroe County, Michigan. It is anticipated that the transaction will be
approved, and will be effective early in December, 1997.

LIQUIDITY

The Bank continues to move in and out of the fed funds market, as liquidity
needs vary. Deposit growth moving at different times than loan growth will
cause continued variation in the short term funds position of the Bank. The
Company has a number of additional liquidity sources should the need arise, and
Management has no concerns for the liquidity position of the Company.

FUNDS MANAGEMENT

The Funds Management Policy of the Bank provides tolerances for the cumulative
gap ratio and total interest rate exposure. While the internal measures as
dictated by policy are calculated with a slight difference than shown in the
table below, all funds management ratios remain within policy. During the third
quarter of 1997, these ratios have changed modestly from those reported at June
30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, reflecting periodic shifts in the Bank's
liquidity position.

The following table shows the rate sensitivity of earning assets and
liabilities, in thousands of dollars, as of September 30, 1997.

NET INTEREST INCOME

In general, yields increased for the third quarter compared to the second
quarter and the same period in 1996. At the same time, the Company's cost of
funds have remained relatively flat compared to the prior quarter,  but have
increased considerably compared to the same period in 1996. This resulted in
continued improvement in net interest income over prior periods. At the same
time, net spread remains below the same period of 1996, while showing
improvement over the prior quarter.

The table below shows the year to date daily average Consolidated Balance
Sheet, interest earned   (on a taxable equivalent basis) or paid, and the
annualized effective rate or yield, for the period ended September 30, 1997 and

NONINTEREST INCOME
Substantially all categories of noninterest income increased from the same
period in 1996. However, due to volume decreases, income from sales and
servicing of loans is marginally behind that achieved in the comparable periods
of 1996. Total noninterest income for the first nine months is up 12.7% from
the same period of 1996.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES
Most categories of noninterest expense showed moderate increases over the same
periods of 1996, reflecting continued growth and expansion of the Bank. Total
noninterest expense, excluding provision for loan losses, for the first nine
months is 9.2% above the same period for 1996.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX
There is no significant change in the income tax position of the Company during
the first nine months of 1997.

NET INCOME
Consolidated net income for the year surpassed that of the same period in 1996
during the third quarter. Management anticipates that income will continue to
improve, and will exceed 1996 levels for the year.
