Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
This report contains certain forward looking statements which reflect
the Company's expectation or belief concerning future events that involve risks
and uncertainties. Among others, certain forward looking statements relate to
the continued growth of various aspects of the Company's community banking,
mortgage banking and investment activities, and the nature and adequacy of
allowances for loan losses. The Company can give no assurance that the
expectations reflected in forward looking statements will prove correct. Various
factors could cause results to differ materially from the Company's
expectations. Among these factors are those referred to in the introduction to
the Company's Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations which appears at Item 7. of the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, which should be read in
conjunction with this Report.
The above cautionary statement is for the purpose of qualifying for the
"safe harbor" provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

SUMMARY
For the three months ended September 30, 1999, a net loss of $310,849
was realized versus a net loss of $115,370 in the same period in 1998. Net
income in the third quarter of 1999 was negatively impacted by $203,947 related
to the following issues:
* The Company lost a legal dispute which resulted in a charge of
$152,000;
* Varsity Mortgage lost $51,947 in the third quarter of 1999, because
of depressed margins and decreased volume.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, a net loss of $889,209
was realized versus net income of $15,802 in the same period in 1998. Net
interest income decreased to $1,046,347 in the 1999 period from $1,252,253 in
the 1998 period, and other income was $2,325,958 in the 1999 period versus
$3,743,463 in the 1998 period. Operating expenses decreased to $4,188,956 in the
1999 period from $4,984,673 in the 1998 period. Basic and diluted net loss per
share in the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was ($0.45), compared to net
income of $0.01 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
The loss in 1999 versus the profit in 1998 was principally due to
decreased mortgage banking fee income and decreased net interest income as a
result of decreased profitability from the Bank's mortgage banking activities
and an adverse legal judgment. Of note, the Company's paid in capital increased
by $196,989 during the 1999 period as a result of the buy-out of certain
minority shareholders of Michigan BIDCO on March 31, 1999 at a discount to
current book value. Pursuant to the GAAP accounting treatment of this
transaction, the Company booked an after-tax loss of $13,427 and did not book
the $196,989 as income.
The following table summarizes the pre-tax income (loss) of each profit
center of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 (in
thousands):

----- -----
Total $(887) $ (85)
The net income of the Company for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 was principally a result of profits from the Bank's mortgage subsidiaries
Varsity Mortgage and Varsity Funding and the equity in the earnings of Michigan
BIDCO. Results at the community banking division in 1998 were assisted by a
$100,000 capital gain on the sale of excess property and a $100,000 gain from
the sale of participation certificates related to certain loans purchased from
the RTC in 1995.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
University Bank has reached an agreement in principle to sell its 80%
interest in Midwest Loan Services for $1,700,000 and a contract to manage the
escrow deposits of Midwest. If a sale is consummated, this would result in a
capital gain of at least $875,000 after-tax.
University Bank has reached an agreement in principle to sell its
interest in Varsity Mortgage, LLC for a nominal sum. If a sale is consummated,
this would result in no gain or loss.
There is no assurance that either the sale of Midwest or Varsity
Mortgage will be completed or that the terms of sale would not change materially
if a sale is consummated.
Last year Michigan BIDCO entered into a contract with a cable tv
company which it had originally financed several years ago which entitles it to
a contingent payment in the event of a change in control of the cable tv firm
prior to November 2000. Subsequent to quarter-end a change in control under the
contract was triggered. The amount of the payment now due BIDCO has not been
determined, but it is based on fair market value of the firm on the date of the
triggering event. Management estimates that the payment will be between
approximately $66,000 and $300,000, and is most likely to be in the middle of
that range. The payment will be immediately due upon determination of the fair
market value of the firm and will result in income to the BIDCO in the amount of
the payment.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income decreased to $367,812 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 from $406,362 for the three months ended September 30, 1998.
Net interest income increased $73,518 (+25%) from the $294,294 earned in the
three months ended June 30, 1999. Net interest income fell from the year ago
period because of a decrease in in mortgage banking loans held for sale due to
lower mortgage banking activity. The yield on interest earning assets decreased
from 8.54% in the 1998 period to 8.15% in the 1999 period. The cost of interest
bearing liabilities decreased from 5.53% in the 1998 period to 5.21% in the 1999
period. Net interest income as a percentage of total earning assets decreased
from 3.67% to 3.48%, because of the decrease in interest spread.
Net interest income decreased to $1,046,347 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $1,252,253 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
Net interest income fell from the year ago period because of the same factors as
in the three month periods. The yield on interest earning assets decreased from
8.67% in the 1998 period to 8.23% in the 1999 period. The cost of interest
bearing liabilities decreased from 5.58% in the 1998 period to 5.14% in the 1999
period. Net interest income as a percentage of total earning assets decreased
from 3.57% to 3.41%, because of the decrease in interest spread.

30, 1999 from $945,566 in the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The average
volume of interest earning assets increased to $46,388,121 in the 1999 period
from $44,271,772 in the 1998 period, an increase of 4.8%. The increased volume
of earning assets was due to a increase in portfolio loans held by the Bank
which was partially offset by a decrease in loans held for sale generated by
Varsity Mortgage. The overall yield on total loans decreased to 8.31% from
8.64%.
The average volume of investment securities in the three months ended
September 30, 1999 increased 98.7% over the same period in 1998, as the Bank
took a position in long term bonds to shift its overall interest rate exposure
to increase the duration of assets. The yield on the securities portfolio
decreased to 6.47% in the three month period ended September 30, 1999 from 9.16%
in the 1998 period.
Management is pleased at the 22.8% increase in portfolio loans at the
Bank since March 31, 1999 and believes that the Bank's "No More Big Bank Blues"
ongoing marketing program which was launched on January 31, 1999 is responsible
for the increased loan balances.
Interest income decreased to $2,522,754 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $3,043,979 in the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
The average volume of interest earning assets decreased to $42,503,890 in the
1999 period from $46,933,778 in the 1998 period, a decrease of 9.4%. The
decreased volume of earning assets and interest income was due to the same
factors as during the three month period. The yield on total loans decreased to
8.60% from 8.79%.
The average volume of investment securities in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 increased 134.5% over the same period in 1998, as the Bank
took a position in long term bonds to shift its overall interest rate exposure
to increase the duration of assets. The yield on the securities portfolio
decreased to 5.86% in the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 from 9.70%
in the 1998 period. In the three months ended June 30, 1999, the Bank's yield on
the securities portfolio was negatively impacted by a $23,000 charge from
rescheduling the accretion of certain zero interest mortgage-backed securities
(due to an increase in projected average life of the securities) held by the
Bank to diminish the overall risk of its servicing rights held in portfolio in
the Bank's overall asset/liability mix. As the average life of these
available-for-sale securities changes this will negatively or positively impact
interest income in the future.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $493,014 in the three months ended
September 30, 1999 from $539,204 in the 1998 period. The decrease was due to a
decrease in interest bearing liabilities as a result of decreased total deposits
and a decrease in rates paid on deposits and borrowed funds. The decrease in
rates was due to decreased time deposits (which have higher rates) offset
partially by increased other retail deposits (which have lower rates). Long term
debt increased as a result of the BIDCO's buyout of some of its minority
shareholders and
13
13
the resulting consolidation of the BIDCO into the Company's financial statements
(see "Non-Interest Income, Michigan BIDCO." below). The cost of funds decreased
to 5.21% in the 1999 period from 5.53% in the 1998 period. The average volume of
interest bearing liabilities decreased 3.9% in the 1999 period versus the 1998
period.
Interest expense decreased to $1,476,407 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $1,791,726 in the 1998 period. The decrease was due to a
decrease in interest bearing liabilities as a result of decreased total deposits
and decreased borrowed funds and a decrease in rates paid on deposits and
borrowed funds. The decrease in rates was due to decreased time deposits and
decreased wholesale deposits (which have higher rates) partially offset by
increased other retail deposits (which have lower rates). The cost of funds
decreased to 5.14% in the 1999 period from 5.58% in the 1998 period. The average
volume of interest bearing liabilities decreased 10.6% in the 1999 period versus
the 1998 period.

Other real estate owned at September 30, 1999, June 30, 1999 and
December 31, 1998 includes a commercial development site in Sault Ste. Marie,
Michigan. Based upon a recent appraisal, management believes the 16-acre site
where a former loan office is located has a fair market value substantially more
than its carrying cost as of September 30, 1999 of $266,079. This property is
carried as other real estate owned in the Company's financial statements since
it is surplus to the Bank's requirements. There is no assurance that a sale of
the property will be consummated.
Other real estate at September 30, 1999 and June 30, 1999 includes a
home sold with financing in the amount of $75,656 and $75,830, respectively,
which sale does not qualify for sale accounting under GAAP since the buyer did
not contribute equity of 15% of the purchase price at the time of sale.
The Bank's loan portfolio continues to have very low delinquencies
other than residential real estate properties.
18
18
All of the other real estate owned is residential single family properties.
Based upon management's review of appraisal information and current broker price
opinions, management believes that, for the most part, the Bank is well secured
with respect to these loans and the other real estate owned which is carried at
cost.
Economic conditions in the Bank's primary market area in Ann Arbor were
strong in the period. Management believes that the current reserve level and the
ongoing reserve for loan losses is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the
loan portfolio, although the ultimate adequacy of the reserve is dependent upon
future economic factors beyond the Company's control. A downturn in the general
nationwide economy will tend to aggravate, for example, the problems of local
loan customers currently facing some difficulties, and could decrease
residential home prices. A general nationwide business expansion could
conversely tend to diminish the severity of any such difficulties.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income decreased to $740,056 for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 from $1,105,316 for the three months ended September
30, 1998. The decrease was principally a result of a $400,724 decrease in the
Bank's mortgage banking income.
Total non-interest income decreased to $2,325,958 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 from $3,743,463 for the nine months ended September 30,
1998. The decrease was principally a result of a $1,403,257 decrease in the
Bank's mortgage banking income.
Securities. During nine months ended September 30, 1999, a gain of $625
was realized on the sale of $504,098 in securities from the Bank's
available-for-sale securities portfolio. There were no losses on sales of
securities from the Bank's available-for-sale securities portfolio. During the
first quarter of 1999, the Company realized a $23,009 loss on the sale of the
Company's investment in AmTec (AMEX-ATC) to raise working capital. Gross
proceeds from this sale were $32,049. During the second quarter of 1999, the
Company realized a $6,906 gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's
investment in Michigan BIDCO senior convertible bonds. Gross proceeds from this
sale were $43,461. The remainder of the Michigan BIDCO bonds held by the Company
were converted into Michigan BIDCO common stock during the second quarter of
1999 (see "Michigan BIDCO." below). The Company made no securities transactions
during the third quarter of 1999.
Mortgage Banking. Total mortgage banking income decreased to $568,134
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $962,775 for the three months
ended September 30, 1998, and decreased to $1,790,544 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $3,187,718 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
Sharply decreased loan purchase and origination volumes during the 1999 periods
were responsible for the decline. Results for the first quarter of 1998 were
also assisted by a $100,000 gain on sale of participation certificates in
sub-performing home equity loans previously purchased from the RTC.
19
19
The Bank owns 100% of the voting interest and 62.5% of the total equity
interest in Varsity Mortgage, LLC. During the third quarter of 1999, the Bank
acquired 12.5% of the total equity interest in Varsity Mortgage for a nominal
sum. As a result of the manner in which Varsity Mortgage's operating agreement
is structured, the Bank is now entitled to 5/12ths of the operating profit
(after reimbursement to the Bank for various expenses) but responsible for 100%
of the first $300,000 in losses, if any, of Varsity Mortgage. After operating
profitably since inception, during the second quarter of 1999, Varsity Mortgage
sustained losses from operations of $225,000. If Varsity Mortgage returns to
profitability, the Bank would be entitled to 100% of Varsity Mortgage's profits
until the previous $225,000 in losses is recovered. See "Recent Developments",
above for a discussion about the possible sale of Varsiity Mortgage and Midwest
Loan Services.
A contributing factor to the decreased profitability at Varsity
Mortgage in 1999 has been start-up expenses at MortgageQuest, Varsity Mortgage's
retail lending division, which was founded January 1, 1999. MortgageQuest lost
$79,000 in the seven months ended July 31, 1999. During the third quarter of
1999, the Bank and Varsity Mortgage sold the MortgageQuest operations to a
substantially larger local retail mortgage firm. In connection with this sale,
the Bank entered into a strategic partnership with that firm which is now
contributing additional revenue to the Bank. In addition, the Bank received a
three year option to buy that firm for a cash payment equal to that firm's
shareholders' equity as calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP), and an additional fixed payment in shares of common stock of
the Company.
At September 30, 1999, the Bank and its subsidiaries owned the right to
service mortgages for FHLMC, FNMA and others, most of which was owned by Midwest
Loan Services, and the remainder by the Bank. The carrying value is currently
$701,244. Based on recent comparable sales and indications of market value from
industry brokers, management believes that the current market value of the
Midwest's portfolio of mortgage servicing rights approximates cost. Market
interest rate conditions can quickly affect the value of mortgage servicing
rights in a positive or negative fashion, as long term interest rates rise and
fall.
The Bank's mortgage banking income in the second quarter of 1999
included a $51,000 loss resulting from a final calculation of early payoffs in
the portfolio of servicing rights sold by the Bank in December 1998.
At September 30, 1999, the Bank had outstanding purchase commitments to
buy single family FNMA and FHLMC qualifying mortgage loans of $15,073,298 and
outstanding forward commitments to deliver FNMA and FHLMC loans of $10,291,850,
all of which commitments were for delivery within three months or less.
Michigan BIDCO. The Company received permission from the Michigan
Financial Institutions Bureau for the BIDCO to repurchase the shares and
convertible bonds held by certain minority shareholders of the BIDCO. The shares
were repurchased on March 31, 1999 and the bonds in mid-April. As a result of
the transaction, the Company's ownership of
20
20
the BIDCO increased to 80.1% from 44.1%, and the BIDCO became part of the
Company's tax filing group for federal income tax purposes. As a result, certain
deferred tax assets are expected to be realized during 1999, as the BIDCO's
taxable income is offset by the Company's net operating tax loss carryforward.
Since the purchase price for the shares was at a discount to the BIDCO's per
share book value, the transaction generated an immediate increase in the
Company's paid-in-capital of $196,989 during the 1999 period. However, pursuant
to the GAAP accounting treatment of this transaction, the Company booked an
after-tax loss of $13,427 and did not book the $196,989 as income.
Until March 31, 1999, the Bank reported its 44.1% equity share in the
earnings of the BIDCO's reported net income. Subsequent to March 31, 1999, the
Bank reports the BIDCO's results on a consolidated basis. The Company included
net income of $99,709 in income from the BIDCO in the third quarter of 1999,
$143,757 in income from the BIDCO in the second quarter of 1999 and $2,690 in
income from the BIDCO in the first quarter of 1999. In the three and nine months
ended 1998, the Bank included $1,136 and $161,625 in income from the BIDCO,
respectively. Income for the 1999 first quarter was negatively impacted by the
charge noted above as a result of the buy-out of the minority shareholders.
As part of the overall transaction, the Company converted $27,000 of
Michigan BIDCO convertible bonds into 18 shares of Michigan BIDCO common stock,
pursuant to the terms of the bonds. Effective March 31, 1999, the Company owns
298 shares of common stock in the BIDCO, currently representing a 80.1% equity
interest. The Company's consolidated fully diluted ownership in the BIDCO is
26.6%, after considering the impact of convertible bonds. As a result of the
buy-out of the minority shareholders, a total of $1,850,000 in 9% convertible
bonds were retired by the BIDCO from cash on hand which had been on deposit at
the Bank earning an average rate of 4%. The elimination of this negative
interest rate spread has since improved the BIDCO's net interest margin at the
rate of $7,500 per month.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the BIDCO made one new
loan financing arrangement, a $50,000 participation in a loan to a railroad
which is a previous customer. Several investments were sold or paid off,
including the BIDCO's equity interest in the Tissue Paper Mill which was sold in
exchange for a fully amortizing 15 month loan for $750,000, resulting in a
realized gain of $500,000. This transaction did not result in a gain or loss for
GAAP accounting purposes since the Company was carrying the stock at 12/31/98 at
the estimated fair value of $750,000. At September 30, 1999, the BIDCO had no
new investments pending. See "Recent Developments", above.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense decreased to $1,379,659 in the three months ended
September 30, 1999 from $1,593,418 for the three months ended September 30,
1998. The decrease was primarily the result of expense control at the Bank and
decreased profit sharing wages due to the lower profits at Varsity Mortgage.
Non-interest expense decreased to $4,188,956 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $4,984,673 for the nine months ended
21
21
September 30, 1998. The decrease was primarily the result of expense control at
the Bank and decreased profit sharing wages due to the lower profits at Varsity
Mortgage. The legal and audit expense of $349,376 in the 1999 period included
$195,000 in legal expense related to a dispute which has now been finalized (see
below" Item 1. Legal Proceedings"). Employee headcount was reduced during 1999
at both the Bank and Varsity Mortgage.
Non-interest operating expense for the parent company only increased to
$166,906 and $198,506 for the three and nine month 1999 periods from $37,022 and
$126,898 for the three and nine month 1998 periods. Expenses for the 1998 nine
month period included a $53,479 expense for the 1998 ESOP contribution. The 1999
ESOP expense will be booked in the fourth quarter this year, since the
calculations of the plan administrator are not yet completed.

The Year 2000 issue concerns the potential impact of computer software code that
only utilizes two digits to represent the calendar year (e.g. "99" for "1999").
Software of this type, if not corrected, could produce inaccurate or
unpredictable results at any time, and especially after January 1, 2000, when
current and future dates have a lower two digit year number than dates in this
century. The Company, similar to most financial services providers, is
significantly subject to the potential of the Year 2000 issue due, among other
matters, to the nature of financial information. Potential impacts to the
Company may arise from software, computer hardware, and other equipment both
within the Company's direct control and outside of the Company's ownership, yet
with which the Company electronically or operationally interfaces. Financial
institution regulators have focused intensively on Year 2000 exposures in the
institutions they regulate, issuing guidance concerning the responsibilities of
senior management and directors. Year 2000 testing and certification is being
addressed as a key safety and soundness issue in conjunction with regulatory
exams. The failure to implement an adequate Year 2000 program can be identified
as an unsafe and unsound banking practice.
In order to address the Year 2000 issue, the Bank has formed a Year 2000
coordination committee with key members of management from the Bank and each
operating subsidiary and appointed its Compliance Officer as Year 2000
Coordinator. The Bank and Midwest rely on mainframe computers, which are IBM A/S
400s, and are tested as Year 2000 compliant. The Bank's main bank software
application is a product of Peerless Group, which has also been upgraded to a
Year 2000 compliant version which has been tested as Year 2000 compliant.
Midwest's main application software is LSAMS servicing software which has been
upgraded to a Year 2000 compliant version which has been tested as Year 2000
compliant. The Bank and Varsity Mortgage also rely on Novell Local Area
Networks, which have been upgraded to a Year 2000 certified version of Novell
Local Area Network software, which has also been tested as Year 2000 compliant.
All PC systems and PC software at the Bank and its subsidiaries have been tested
as Year 2000 compliant.
22
22
All of the $93,000 Year 2000 readiness budget has been spent in the process
of upgrading and certifying the systems as being Year 2000 compliant. The bulk
of the Year 2000 budget was allocated to capital expenditures for software
upgrades for software updates and hardware updates and Year 2000 testing which
was expensed in 1998. At this point in time, the Company and its subsidiaries
have renovated and tested as Year 2000 compliant all systems.
Actual and budgeted Year 2000 readiness costs do not include the implicit
costs associated with the reallocation of internal staff hours to Year 2000
readiness related efforts. These costs are not included because the Bank does
not separately track those expenses. Budgeted costs also do not include normal
ongoing costs for computer hardware and software that would be replaced even
without the presence of the Year 2000 issue in conjunction with the Company's
ongoing programs for updating its infrastructure. No additional Year 2000 are
anticipated.
The Company has communicated and will continue to communicate with various
significant suppliers and major borrowers and customers to determine the extent
to which the Company is vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate
their own Year 2000 issues. The Company is requesting that such third party
vendors indicate whether their products and services are Year 2000 compliant,
whether they have a program to test for that compliance, and the status of the
program. However, the activities of third parties in responding to the Year 2000
issue is beyond the control of the Company.
Despite the Company's activities to address the Year 2000 issue, there is no
assurance that certain mission critical vendors such as the Federal Reserve Bank
of Chicago, the Bank's correspondent banks (Bank One, the Federal Home Loan Bank
of Indianapolis and Associated Bank), the Bank's credit card processor
(Equifax), the Bank's ATM processor (NYCE), or local power (Detroit Edison
Electric) and phone utilities (Ameritech and ATT) will be Year 2000 compliant by
year-end 1999, and if not this could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations, and the Company's borrowers and customers. There can also
be no assurance that partial or total systems interruptions or the costs
necessary to implement contingency plans, or Year 2000 systems failures
affecting borrowers, customers or third party vendors would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operations and business prospects. Further, the
Company cannot estimate the additional cost, if any, of implementing any such
contingency plan.
The Bank has evaluated the Year 2000 readiness of its major borrowers and
determined that it has a below average risk (relative to its peer group) from
Year 2000 related potential loan losses, due to its primary focus on real estate
secured lending. All business loans and loan renewals by the Bank are being
evaluated in the context of the Year 2000 readiness of each business. However,
it is impossible for the Company to know with any certainty that the Bank or its
subsidiaries will not sustain Year 2000 related credit losses, and whether or
not such losses would be material.
The Bank and its subsidiaries have established back-up contingency plans to
continue operations in the event of a Year 2000 systems failure, based on the
assumption that all mission critical computer systems are Year 2000 tested but
that non-traditional power sources may
23
23
be required for a short period of time. In addition, a final contingency plan
has been established to conduct manual operations using paper forms until such
time as a systems failure can be corrected. The Bank ran for a full day in the
fourth quarter of 1999 without computers as a test of its full scale live
contingency plan. Management believes that as a temporary measure, it is
feasible with the volume of current activity to continue operations in this
manner, but there is no assurance that it is possible or that the cost would not
be material.
Internet Banking. With the substantial progress which has been made
towards preparing the Bank for the Year 2000 issue, management has begun a
project to offer transactional internet banking for all bank products. The
internet banking product is expected to be available in production mode during
the fourth quarter of 1999. Implementation of the project, which has a capital
budget of approximately $100,000, will add ongoing depreciation and operating
expenses which are expected to be more than offset by the transfer to the Bank
of approximately $2,300,000 in mortgage servicing escrow accounts controlled by
Midwest Loan Services. These escrow deposit accounts are currently held at
another bank due to the inability of the Bank currently to offer PC banking to
Midwest to facilitate Midwest's daily operational needs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources. The table on the following page sets forth the
Bank's risk based assets, and the capital ratios and risk based capital ratios
of the Bank and Company. At September 30, 1999, the Bank was "well-capitalized"
(the required ratio for "well-capitalized" was 10% of total risk-based assets).
Bank Liquidity. The Bank's primary sources of liquidity are customer
deposits, scheduled amortization and prepayments of loan principal, cash flow
from operations, maturities of various investments, the sale of loans held for
sale, borrowings from correspondent lenders secured by securities and/or
residential mortgage loans. In addition, the Bank invests in overnight Federal
Funds. At September 30, 1999, the bank had cash and due from banks and fed funds
on hand of $898,946. The Bank has a $7,500,000 line of credit secured by
investment securities and portfolio mortgage loans, of which $5,067,674 was
drawn at September 30, 1999. In order to bolster liquidity, the Bank has also
sold brokered CDs from time to time.
The decline in time deposits during the nine month period ended
September 30, 1999 from $24,867,369 to $17,786,828 was the result of a decrease
of approx. $2,300,000 in brokered time deposits and an overall decrease in
retail time deposits. Management is de-emphasizing brokered time deposits to
decrease the cost of interest-earning liabilities. In addition, management has
lowered retail CD rates to reduce the overall cost of funds.

Parent Company Liquidity. At year-end 1998, University Bancorp, Inc.
held cash and marketable equity securities of $37,882 (excluding Michigan BIDCO
common stock). This decreased by $36,833 to $1,049 at September 30, 1999. During
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 no dividends were paid from the Bank,
as a result of low profitability at the Bank. In an effort to maintain the
Bank's Tier 1 capital to assets ratio above 7% and to increase capital through
retained earnings, management does not expect that the Bank will pay dividends
to the Company during 1999. Management intends that the cash and securities on
hand, federal tax refunds receivable, and cash from the sale of common stock or
advances in anticipation of stock issues (see below) and the exercise of stock
options to be sufficient to cover the required principal reductions during 1999
on the parent company's indebtedness owing to North Country Bank & Trust
("NCB&T"). The NCB&T loans amounted to $727,000 and $826,000 at September 30,
1999 and at December 31, 1998, respectively.
During the third quarter of 1999, the Company borrowed $228,000 from
various individuals and trusts related to the Company's CEO and Chairman
(Ranzini Noteholders) in the form of equity conversion notes. The notes accrue
interest at the rate of 8.25% and are mandatorily convertible into common stock
of the Company at the Company's option at the rate of $3 per share of common
stock. All interest is accrued and any accrued interest would also be
convertible on the same terms. In addition, the Ranzini Noteholders have
committed to purchase a total of at least $304,000 of notes by December 1, 1999
and at least $234,000 in common stock of the Company under any New Stock Issue
prior to March 31, 2000.
Impact of Inflation
The primary impact of inflation on the Company's operations is
reflected in increased operating costs. Since the assets and liabilities of the
Company are primarily monetary in nature, changes in interest rates have a more
significant impact on the Company's performance than the general effects of
inflation. However, to the extent that inflation affects interest rates, it also
affects the net income of the Company.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
All financial institutions are significantly affected by fluctuations in
interest rates commonly referred to as "interest rate risk." The principal
exposure of a financial institution's earnings to interest rate risk is the
difference in time between interest rate adjustments or maturities on
interest-earning assets compared to the time between interest rate adjustments
or maturities on interest-bearing liabilities. Such difference is commonly
referred to as a financial institution's "gap position." In periods when
interest rates are increasing, a negative gap position will result in generally
lower
26
26
earnings as long-term assets are repricing upward slower than short-term
liabilities. However during a declining rate environment, the opposite effect on
earnings is true, with earnings rising due to long-term assets repricing
downward slower than short-term liabilities.
Rising long term and short term interest rates tend to increase the
value of Midwest Loan Services' investment in mortgage servicing rights and
improve Midwest Loan Services' current return on such rights by lowering
required amortization rates on the rights. Rising interest rates tends to
decrease new mortgage origination activity, negatively impacting current income
from the Bank's retail mortgage banking operations and Varsity Mortgage's
operations. Rising interest rates also slow Midwest Loan Services' rate of
growth, but increases the duration of its existing subservicing contracts.
The Bank performs a static gap analysis which has limited value as a
simulation because of competitive and other influences that are beyond the
control of the Bank. The table on page 27 details the Bank's interest
sensitivity gap between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
at September 30, 1999. The table is based upon various assumptions of management
which may not necessarily reflect future experience. As a result, certain assets
and liabilities indicated in the table as maturing or re-pricing within a stated
period may, in fact, mature or re-price in other periods or at different
volumes. The one-year static gap position at September 30, 1999 was estimated to
be ($8,716,000) or -17.94%:

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From December 1995, the Company was engaged in a dispute over a $30,000
amount owed to it, and refused to pay $45,000 which it owed to the same party
until the $30,000 was paid to it. During the third quarter of 1999, the Company
received an adverse judgment in a mediation covering this dispute. The mediator
awarded the plaintiff a sum of $167,000, including interest, legal fees, and the
sum of $80,000, which related to another matter which was not originally in
dispute and subject to a separate agreement, which the mediator voided. The
Company did not dispute a net amount payable of $15,000, and had included this
amount in accounts payable at June 30, 1999. In the opinion of the Company's
legal counsel, the mediator acted contrary to Michigan law, however, no appeal
of the ill-advised opinion is practical. As a result, $152,000 was charged as an
expense during the third quarter of 1999.
