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 three month period ending March 31, 1998.

                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

SECURITIES
Investment balances continued to increase during the quarter, following recent
trends. Overall, deposit growth has exceeded loan demand during the quarter,
resulting in additions to the securities portfolio.  The mix of the portfolio
remained relatively unchanged from prior periods.

LOANS
Loan volume moderated during the first quarter, following three quarters of
strong growth. All categories of personal loans declined, while the business
loan portfolio experienced increases.

The mix of the loan portfolio reflected this growth trend, although overall the
mix has remained relatively unchanged from prior periods. Over the long term,
the trend is toward an increased percentage of residential mortgage and
business loans, with slight declines in personal loans. The table below shows
total loans outstanding, in thousands of dollars, at March 31, 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 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 remained relatively unchanged from December 31, 1997, and
remain at higher levels than at March 31, 1997. Loans past due ninety days or
more declined during the quarter, while nonaccrual loans increased during the
period. 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 increased its provision for loan losses over the same period in
1997 as a result of the increase in loan delinquency. However, on an annualized
basis, the provision is anticipated to be lower than that of the prior year. An
analysis of the allowance for loan losses, in thousands of dollars, for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 follows:

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 continued to grow during the quarter, although the rate of
growth of noninterest bearing and interest bearing balances continue to
fluctuate with swings in corporate and public fund balances. 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.  Management anticipates that deposit growth during the
remainder of 1998 will be steady, with anticipated growth from new markets, as
well as from consumer use of newer cash management account products.

In December of 1997, the Bank acquired the Dundee office of NBD Bank, resulting
in an increase of $12.6 million of deposits. In addition, the Saline office of
the Bank, opened in August of 1997, continues to enjoy strong deposit growth,
also contributing to total deposit growth of the institution.

LIQUIDITY
The Bank maintained a funds sold position for the first quarter of 1998,
although generally the Bank moves 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 AND INTEREST RATE RISK
The composition of the Company's balance sheet consists of investments in
interest earning assets (loans and investment securities) that are funded by
interest bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowings). These financial
instruments have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in market interest
rates resulting in market risk. Bank policies place strong emphasis on
stabilizing net interest margin, with the goal of providing a sustained level
of satisfactory earnings. The Funds Management, Investment and Loan policies
provide direction for the flow of funds necessary to supply the needs of
depositors and borrowers. Management of interest sensitive assets and
liabilities is also necessary to reduce interest rate risk during times of
fluctuating interest rates.

A number of measures are used to monitor and manage interest rate risk,
including interest sensitivity (gap) and income simulation analyses. A gap
model is the primary tool used to assess this risk with supplemental
information supplied by an income simulation model. The simulation model is
used to estimate the effect that specific interest rate changes would have on
12 months of pretax net interest income assuming an immediate and sustained up
or down parallel change in interest rates of 200 basis points. Key assumptions
in the models include prepayment speeds on mortgage related assets; cash flows
and maturities of financial instruments held for purposes other than trading;
changes in market conditions, loan volumes and pricing; and management's
determination of core deposit sensitivity.  These assumptions are inherently
uncertain and, as a result, the models cannot precisely estimate net interest
income or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net
interest income.  Actual results will differ from simulated results due to
timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market
conditions.

Based on the results of the simulation model as of  March 31, 1998, the Company
would expect a maximum potential reduction in net interest margin of less than
5% if market rates increased under an immediate and sustained parallel shift of
200 basis points.

The following table shows the rate sensitivity of earning assets and
liabilities of the Company, in thousands of dollars, as of March 31, 1998.

The Company's exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the
Funds Management Committee. The Committee's policy objective is to manage the
Company's assets and liabilities to provide an optimum and consistent level of
earnings within the framework of acceptable risk standards.

The Funds Management Committee of the Bank is also responsible for evaluating
and anticipating various risks other than interest rate risk. Those risks
include prepayment risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Committee is made
up of senior members of management, and continually monitors the makeup of
interest sensitive assets and liabilities to assure appropriate liquidity,
maintain interest margins and to protect earnings in the face of changing
interest rates and other economic factors.

The Funds Management policy of the Bank provides for a level of interest
sensitivity which, Management believes, allows the Bank to take advantage of
opportunities within the market relating to liquidity and interest rate risk,
allowing flexibility without subjecting the Bank to undue exposure to risk.  In
addition, other measures are used to evaluate and project the anticipated
results of Management's decisions.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME
In general, yields declined for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the
fourth quarter of 1997, while remaining higher than those of the same period in
1997. At the same time, the Company's cost of funds dropped compared to the
prior quarter, and continued to decline compared to the same period in 1997.
This resulted in improved net interest income and spread over the same period
of 1997, while remaining virtually flat compared to the prior quarter.

Sheet, interest earned (on a taxable equivalent basis) or paid, and the
annualized effective rate or yield, for the periods ended March 31, 1998 and
1997.

(a)The change in interest due to both rate and volume has been allocated to
   volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute
   dollar amounts of the change in each.

NONINTEREST INCOME
Income from nontraditional banking products and services has contributed to
significant increases in noninterest income over prior periods. All categories
of noninterest income increased from the same period in 1997. This increase was
led by income from the sales and servicing of residential real estate
mortgages, reflecting consumer preference for fixed rate mortgages, which are
subsequently sold on the secondary market, and generate income for current and
future periods. In addition, earnings from the Trust & Investment group, as
well as from the sales of nondeposit investment products, continue to increase
at significant rates. Overall, total noninterest income for the first three
months is up 47.3% over the same period of 1997.

NONINTEREST EXPENSES
Noninterest expense also continued to increase over the same periods of 1997,
reflecting continued growth and expansion of the Bank. Total noninterest
expense, excluding provision for loan losses, for the first three months is
19.6% above the same period for 1997.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX
There has been no significant change in the income tax position of the Company
during the first quarter of 1998.

NET INCOME
Consolidated net income for the year exceeded that of the same period in 1997
by 15.6%.  Management anticipates that net income will continue to remain
strong, and should exceed 1997 levels for the year.
