PART I
Item 1. Business
General
Bourbon Bancshares, Inc. ("Company" or "Bourbon") is a
Kentucky corporation organized in 1981 and a bank and
savings and loan holding company registered under the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("BHCA") and the
Home Owners Loan Act of 1933, as amended ("HOLA").
On August 13, 1999, Kentucky Bank acquired the Wilmore,
Kentucky branch of National City Bank. Included in the
purchase were $9.0 million in net deposits and $353 thousand
in fixed assets. The net deposits assumed exceeded the cash
received by $287 thousand.
The Company conducts business through one banking
subsidiary, Kentucky Bank. Kentucky Bank is a commercial
bank and trust company organized under the laws of Kentucky.
Kentucky Bank has its main office in Paris (Bourbon County),
Kentucky, additional offices in Paris, North Middletown
(Bourbon County), Winchester (Clark County), Georgetown
(Scott County), Versailles (Woodford County), Nicholasville
(Jessamine County), Wilmore (Jessamine County), Kentucky and
a loan production office in Cynthiana (Harrison County),
Kentucky. The deposits of Kentucky Bank are insured up to
prescribed limits by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") and the
Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), both of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Kentucky
Bank is engaged in general full-service commercial and
consumer banking. Kentucky Bank makes commercial,
agricultural and real estate loans to its commercial
customers, with emphasis on small-to-medium-sized
industrial, service and agricultural businesses. Kentucky
Bank makes residential mortgage, installment and other loans
to its individual and other non-commercial customers.
Kentucky Bank also offers its customers the opportunity to
obtain a credit card. Kentucky Bank offers its customers a
variety of other services, including checking, savings, club
and money market accounts, certificates of deposits, safe
deposit facilities and other consumer-oriented financial
services. Recently, Kentucky Bank has made Internet banking
available to its customers at www.kybank.com. Through its
trust department, Kentucky Bank provides primarily personal
trust and agency services (including management agency
services) and, to a lesser extent, corporate trust services
(including the management of corporate pension and profits
sharing plans).
Competition
The Company and its subsidiary face vigorous competition
from a number of sources, including other bank holding
companies and commercial banks, consumer finance companies,
thrift institutions, other financial institutions and
financial intermediaries. In addition to commercial banks,
savings and loan associations, savings banks and credit
unions actively compete to provide a wide variety of banking
services. Mortgage banking firms, finance companies,
insurance companies, brokerage companies, financial
affiliates of industrial companies and government agencies
provide additional competition for loans and for many other
financial services. The subsidiary also currently competes
for interest-bearing funds with a number of other financial
intermediaries, including brokerage firms and mutual funds,
which offer a diverse range of investment alternatives.
Supervision and Regulation
As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to the
regulation and supervision of the Federal Reserve Board.
The Company's subsidiary is subject to supervision and
regulation by applicable state and federal banking agencies,
including the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation and the Kentucky Department of
Financial Institutions. The subsidiary is also subject to
various requirements and restrictions under federal and
state law, including requirements to maintain reserves
against deposits, restrictions on the types and amounts of
loans that may be granted and the interest that may be
charged thereon, and limitations on the types of investments
that may be made and the types of services that may be
offered. Various consumer laws and regulations also affect
the operations of the subsidiary. In addition to the impact
of regulation, the subsidiary is affected significantly by
the actions of the Federal Reserve Board as it attempts to
control the money supply and credit availability in order to
influence the economy.
There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed
on bank holding companies and their depository institution
subsidiaries by federal law and regulatory policy that are
designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the depositors
of such depository institutions and to the FDIC insurance
funds in the event the depository institution becomes in
danger of default or is in default. For example, under a
policy of the Federal Reserve Board with respect to bank
holding company operations, a bank holding company is
required to serve as a source of financial strength to its
subsidiary depository institutions and commit resources to
support such institutions in circumstances where it might
not do so absent such policy. In addition, the "cross-
guarantee" provisions of federal law require insured
depository institutions under common control to reimburse
the FDIC for any loss suffered or reasonably anticipated as
a result of the default of a commonly controlled insured
depository institution or for any assistance provided by the
FDIC to a commonly controlled insured depository institution
in danger of default.
The federal banking agencies have broad powers under current
federal law to take prompt corrective action to resolve
problems of insured depository institutions. The extent of
these powers depends upon whether the institutions in
question are "well capitalized", "adequately capitalized",
"undercapitalized", "significantly undercapitalized" or
"critically undercapitalized", as such terms are defined
under uniform regulation defining such capital levels issued
by each of the federal banking agencies.
There are various legal and regulatory limits on the extent
to which the Company's subsidiary bank may pay dividends or
otherwise supply funds to the Company. In addition, federal
and state regulatory agencies also have the authority to
prevent a bank or bank holding company from paying a
dividend or engaging in any other activity that, in the
opinion of the agency, would constitute an unsafe or unsound
practice.
There have been a number of legislative and regulatory
proposals that would have an impact on the operation of bank
holding companies and their banks. It is impossible to
predict whether or in what form these proposals may be
adopted in the future and, if adopted, what their effect
will be on the Company.
Beginning January 1, 2001, 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.
The recently adopted Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999
eliminates restrictions imposed by the Glass-Steagall
Financial Services Law, adopted in the 1930s, which
prevented banking, insurance and securities firms from fully
entering each other's businesses. While it is still
uncertain what the impact of this legislation will be, it is
likely to result in further consolidation in the financial
services industry. In addition, removal of these barriers
will likely increase the number of entities providing
banking services, thereby increasing competition.
Employees
At December 31, 1999, the number of full time equivalent
employees of the Company was 149.
Item 2. Properties
The main banking office of Kentucky Bank, which also serves
as the principal office of Kentucky Bank, is located at
Fourth and Main Streets, Paris, Kentucky 40361. In addition,
Kentucky Bank serves customer needs at 10 other locations.
All locations, except for the Cynthiana office (which is a
loan production office), offer a full range of banking
services. Kentucky Bank owns all of the properties at which
it conducts its business, except the location in Scott
County at Paris Pike, which is leased. The Company owns
approximately 63,000 square feet of office space and leases
approximately 2,000 square feet of office space, with
aggregate annual lease payments of approximately $15
thousand in 1999.
Note 5 to the Company's consolidated financial statements
included in this report contains additional information
relating to amounts invested in premises and equipment.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiary are from time to time
involved in routine legal proceedings occurring in the
ordinary course of business that, in the aggregate,
management believes will not have a material impact on the
Company's financial condition and results of operation.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
Not Applicable.
PART II
Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder
Matters
The Company's Common Stock is not listed on any national
securities exchange nor is it quoted on the NASDAQ system.
However, it is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board under the

infrequent, with two regional retail brokerage firms making
the market. On June 8, 1999, the stockholders approved a
two-for-one stock split effective July 15, 1999. All shares
and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to
reflect the split. The following table sets forth the high

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition
and results of operations should be read in conjunction with
the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes
included as Exhibit 13. When necessary, reclassifications
have been made to prior years' data throughout the following
discussion and analysis for purposes of comparability with
1999 data. On June 8, 1999, the stockholders approved a two-
for-one stock split effective July 15, 1999. All shares and
per share amounts have been retroactively restated to
reflect the split.
Summary
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $4.5
million, or $1.59 per common share compared to $3.8 million,
or $1.36 for 1998 and $3.4 million, or $1.22 for 1997.
Earnings per share assuming dilution were $1.55, $1.33 and
$1.20 for 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. During 1999,
net income increased $646 thousand, up 17%. Net interest
income increased 14% and the loan loss provision remained
relatively constant, while other income and other expenses
increased 10%. For 1998, net income increased over $395
thousand, nearly 12%. Increases in net interest income of
over 7% and other income of 28% were offset by increases in
other expenses of over 7% and the provision for loan losses
of 42%. The increase in the loan loss provision was mainly
attributable to the 15% growth in loans.
Return on average equity was 14.6% in 1999 compared to 13.6%
in 1998 and 13.4% in 1997. Return on average assets was
1.39% in 1999 compared to 1.31% in 1998 and 1.23% in 1997.
Non-performing loans as of a percentage of loans (including
held for sale) were 0.31%, 0.50% and 0.26% as of December
31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. With emphasis on
loan growth and through management's concerted effort on
loan quality, these ratios have remained well below peer
groups over the last three years.
During 1996, the federal thrift charters of Kentucky Savings
Bank, FSB and Jessamine were terminated and both entities
became branches of Kentucky Bank. Financial statements have
been adjusted to reflect this change.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the largest source of revenue, on a tax
equivalent basis increased from $10.9 million in 1997 to
$11.7 million in 1998 to $13.2 million in 1999. The taxable
equivalent adjustment (which is net of the effect of the non-
deductible portion of interest expense) is based on a
Federal income tax rate of 34%.
Average earning assets and interest bearing liabilities both
increased from 1998 to 1999. The increase in earning assets
of $24 million offset with a decline of 18 basis points in
the tax equivalent yield have resulted in tax equivalent
interest income increasing $1.5 million. Average loans
increased $28 million along with a 25 basis point drop in
the yield, resulting in the loan income increasing $2
million. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $20
million coupled with a 42 basis point decline in the yield
caused the interest on liabilities to decline $119 thousand.
The $488 thousand decline in deposit interest is a result of
average deposits increasing $12 million and the
corresponding yield dropping 47 basis points.
For 1998, average earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities increased. The $12 million increase in average
earning assets, and maintenance of the same tax equivalent
yield resulted in tax equivalent interest income increasing
over $1 million. Average loans increasing over $22 million
with a 14 basis point decline in yield along with an over
$10 million decline in investment securities and an 8 basis
point decline caused the yield on earning assets to remain
constant. The increase of $10 million in deposits along
with an 8 basis point decline in yield accounted for the
change in liabilities.
The accompanying analysis of changes in net interest income
in the following table shows the relationships of the volume
and rate portions of these increases in 1999 and 1998.
Changes in interest income and expenses due to both rate and
volume are allocated on a pro rata basis.

Noninterest Income and Expenses
Noninterest income was $3.4 million in 1999 compared to $3.1
million in 1998 and $2.4 million in 1997. In 1999
securities gains were $1 thousand compared to $41 thousand
gains in 1998 and $14 thousand gains in 1997. Typically, U.
S. Treasury securities are sold before maturity when
additional interest yields can be realized. Other types of
investment securities are generally not sold. In addition,
gains on loans sold were $351 thousand, $440 thousand and
$72 thousand in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. During
1999, the volume of mortgage loans held for sale declined.
This decline along with rising rates account for the drop in
loan gains during the year. In 1998, management increased
its focus on mortgage banking and this focus along with the
increased volume of loans sold in a declining rate
environment resulted in the increased gain on loans sold.
Loans held for sale are generally sold after closing to
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. The sales of loans
were $25 million, $35 million and $18 million in 1999, 1998
and 1997, respectively. Other noninterest income excluding
security and loans net gains was $3.0 million in 1999, $2.6
million in 1998 and $2.3 million in 1997. Service charges
and trust department income have both been big contributors
to this increase in income over this three-year period.
Noninterest expense increased $908 thousand in 1999 to $9.4
million and $626 thousand from $7.9 million in 1997 to $8.5
million in 1998. The increases in salaries and benefits
from $4.3 million in 1997 to $4.5 million in 1998 and $5.1
million in 1999 are mainly attributable to normal salary and
benefit increases and a change in bonus compensation, with
an increased focus on incentive compensation. Due to this
change, bonuses were $234 thousand higher in 1999 compared
to 1998. Occupancy expense increased $197 thousand, or 17%
in 1999 to $1.4 million and 16% in 1998, from $1.0 million
in 1997 to $1.2 million in 1998. In August 1998 the Company
added a new branch in Georgetown and in March 1997, the
Company opened its new branch in Versailles resulting in
higher operating cost attributable to these facilities. The
Company has also placed more emphasis on maintaining its
existing facilities since 1997, which are reflected in
increases in occupancy expenses. Other noninterest expense
increased from $2.6 million in 1997 to $2.8 million in 1998
and in 1999 other noninterest expenses increased to $3.0
million.
The following table is a summary of noninterest income and
expense for the three-year period indicated.

Income Taxes
The Company had income tax expense of $1.7 million in 1999
compared to $1.4 million in 1998 and $1.1 million in 1997.
This represents an effective income tax rate of 27.9% in
1999, 26.5% in 1998 and 25.2% in 1997. The difference
between the effective tax rate and the statutory federal
rate of 34% is due to tax exempt income on certain loans and
investment securities. The higher effective rate for 1999
and 1998 is a result of tax-free income remaining virtually
unchanged for these two years while income before taxes
increased $995 thousand in 1999 and $619 thousand in 1998.
Balance Sheet Review
Assets at year-end 1999 totaled $347 million compared to
$309 million in 1998 and $291 million in 1997. Loan growth
of $32 million in 1999 was funded by deposit growth of $16
million and an increase in borrowings of $20 million. At
the end of 1999, Cash and Due From Banks were $9 million
higher as a precaution to possible Y2K anxieties. Changes
in 1998 are a result of loans increasing $27.7 million and
investment securities decreasing $9.3 million. Assets were
funded by an increase in deposits of $17.4 million. Federal
Home Loan Bank Advances declined by $3.3 million.
Loans
Total loans (including loans held for sale) were $242
million at December 31, 1999 compared to $213 million at the
end of 1998 and $185 million in 1997. As of the end of 1999
and compared to the prior year-end, commercial loans
increased $2.5 million, real estate construction loans
increased $5.9 million, real estate mortgage loans
(including loans held for sale) increased $13.6 million,
agricultural loans increased $2.2 million and installment
loans increased $4.8 million. In 1998, commercial loans
increased $4.5 million, real estate construction loans
increased $3.4 million, real estate mortgages increased
$11.2 million, agricultural loans increased $6.3 million and
installment loans increased $2.4 million. Since 1998,
management has utilized regional loan goals for each type of
loan and this emphasis has resulted in improved sales
efforts by the lending personnel. Management continues to
place more emphasis on the growth without sacrificing the
quality of the loan portfolio.
As of December 31, 1999, the real estate mortgage portfolio
comprised 57% of total loans compared to 59% in 1998. Of
this, 1-4 family residential property represented 76% in
1999 and 79% in 1998. Agricultural loans comprised 19% in
1999 and 21% in 1998 of the loan portfolio. Approximately
75% and 73% of the agricultural loans are secured by real
estate for 1999 and 1998, respectively. The remainder of
the agricultural portfolio is used to purchase livestock,
equipment and other capital improvements and for general
operation of the farm. Generally, a secured interest is
obtained in the capital assets, equipment, livestock or
crops. Automobile loans account for 52% in 1999 and 47% in
1998 of the installment loan portfolio, while the purpose of
the remainder of this portfolio is used by customers for
purchasing retail goods, home improvement or other personal
reasons. Collateral is generally obtained on these loans
after analyzing the repayment ability of borrower.
Commercial loan's portfolio is mainly for capital outlays
and business operation. Collateral is requested depending
on the creditworthiness of the borrower. Unsecured loans
are made to individuals or companies mainly based on the
creditworthiness of the customer. Approximately 5% of the
loan portfolio is unsecured. Management is not aware of any
significant concentrations that may cause future material
risks, which may result in significant problems with future
income and capital requirements.
The following table represents a summary of the Company's
loan portfolio by category for each of the last five years.
There is no concentration of loans (greater than 5% of the
loan portfolio) in any industry. Bourbon has no foreign
loans or highly leveraged transactions in its loan
portfolio.

Deposits
Total deposits increased to $275 million in 1999, up $16
million from 1998. Noninterest bearing deposits increased
$2 million, while time deposits of $100 thousand and over,
and other interest bearing deposits both increased $7
million. Public funds totaled $34 million at the end of
1999 ($33 million was interest bearing). On August 13,
1999, Kentucky Bank acquired the Wilmore, Kentucky branch of
National City Bank. Included in the purchase were $9.0
million in net deposits and $353 thousand in fixed assets.
The net deposits assumed exceeded the cash received by $287
thousand.
Total deposits increased $17 million in 1998 to $259
million. Noninterest bearing deposits increased $7 million
to $40 million, while $100,000 and over time deposits and
other interest bearing deposits both increased $5 million.
Public funds composed $35 million, with $34 million of this
being interest bearing. In addition, management placed more
emphasis on deposits and monitored deposits generated by
type on a monthly basis.
The tables below provide information on the maturities of
time deposits of $100,000 or more at December 31, 1999 and

Borrowing
The Company utilizes both long and short term borrowing.
Long term borrowing is mainly from the Federal Home Loan
Bank (FHLB). As of December 31, 1999, $26.6 million was
borrowed from FHLB, an increase of $19.6 million from 1998.
Advances are either paid monthly or at maturity. This
borrowing is mainly used to fund long term, fixed rate
mortgages and to assist in asset/liability management.
Nearly $361 thousand of FHLB borrowing was paid in 1999, and
advances were made for an additional $20 million. The
following table depicts relevant information concerning our
short term borrowings.

Asset Quality
With respect to asset quality, management considers three
categories of assets to merit close scrutiny. These
categories include: loans that are currently nonperforming,
other real estate, and loans that are currently performing
but which management believes require special attention.
The Company discontinues the accrual of interest on loans
that become 90 days past due as to principal or interest
unless extreme justifiable reasons are documented such as
the loan being in the process of collection. Uncollected
interest generally remains in earned income until collected
and removed from earnings if the loan is charged-off. A
loan remains in a non-accrual status until factors
indicating doubtful collection no longer exist. A loan is
classified as a restructured loan when the interest rate is
materially reduced or the term is extended beyond the
original maturity date because of the inability of the
borrower to service the interest payments at market rates.
Other real estate is recorded at the lower of cost or fair
market value less estimated costs to sell. A summary of the
components of nonperforming assets, including several rates
using period-end data, is shown below.

Total nonperforming assets loans at December 31, 1999 were
$1.1 million compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 1998
and $487 thousand at December 31, 1997. Total nonperforming
loans were $759 thousand, $1.1 million and $487 thousand at
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The amount
of lost interest on non-accrual loans is considered
immaterial. At December 31, 1999, loans currently
performing but which management believes require special
attention were not significant. The Company continues to
follow its long-standing policy of not engaging in
international lending and not concentrating lending activity
in any one industry.
Impaired loans as of December 31, 1999 were $201 thousand
compared to $286 thousand in 1998 and $333 thousand in 1997.
These amounts are included in the total nonperforming and
restructured loans presented in the table above. See Note 4
in the notes to consolidated financial statements included
as Exhibit 13.
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that all
principal and interest amounts will not be collected
according to the loan contract. The allowance for loan
losses on impaired loans is determined using the present
value of estimated future cash flows of the loan, discounted
at the loan's effective interest rate or the fair value of
the underlying collateral. The entire change in present
value of expected cash flows is reported as a provision for
loan losses in the same manner in which impairment initially
was recognized or as a reduction in the amount of provision
for loan losses that otherwise would be reported. The total
allowance for loan losses related to these loans was $10
thousand, $85 thousand and $57 thousand on December 31,
1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Loans are typically charged-off after being 120 days
delinquent. Limited exceptions for not charging-off a loan
would be well documented and approved by the appropriate
responsible party or committee. The provision for loan
losses for 1999 was $700 thousand compared to $700 thousand
in 1998 and $493 thousand in 1997. Net charge-offs were
$332 thousand in 1999, $287 thousand in 1998 and $272
thousand in 1997. Net chargeoffs to average loans were
0.15%, 0.15% and 0.16% in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
With the current quality of the loan portfolio, the loan
loss provision stayed constant from 1998 to 1999. The trend
in the loan loss provision increasing for 1998 is a result
of considering our historical loan loss trends, risk
analysis of our loan portfolio and the increase in loan
outstandings. In evaluating the allowance for loan losses,
management considers the composition of the loan portfolio,
historical loan loss experience, the overall quality of the
loans and an assessment of current economic conditions. At
December 31, 1999, the allowance for loan losses was 1.28%
of loans outstanding compared to 1.28% at year-end 1998 and
1.25% in 1997. Management believes the allowance for loan
losses at the end of 1999 is adequate to cover inherent
credit losses within the portfolio.
The following tables set forth an allocation for the
allowance for loan losses and loans by category and a
percentage distribution of the allowance allocation. In
making the allocation, management evaluates the risk in each
category, current economic conditions and charge-off
experience. An allocation for the allowance for loan losses
is an estimate of the portion of the allowance that will be
used to cover future charge-offs in each loan category, but
it does not preclude any portion of the allowance allocated
to one type of loan being used to absorb losses of another
loan type.

Capital
As displayed by the following table, the Company's Tier I
capital (as defined by the Federal Reserve Board under the
Board's risk-based guidelines) at December 31, 1999
increased $2.9 million to $30.6 million. Total
stockholders' equity, excluding accumulated other
comprehensive income was $32.3 million at December 31, 1999.
The Company's risk-based capital and leverage ratios, as
shown in the following table, exceeded the levels required
to be considered "well capitalized". The leverage ratio
compares Tier I capital to total average assets less
disallowed amounts of goodwill.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of
1991 ("FDICIA") established five capital categories for
insured depository institutions under its Prompt Corrective
Action Provisions. The bank regulatory agencies adopted
regulations, which became effective in 1992, defining these
five capital categories for banks they regulate. The
categories vary from "well capitalized" to "critically
undercapitalized". A "well capitalized" bank is defined as
one with a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or more, a
Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6% or more, a leverage
ratio of 5% or more, and one not subject to any order,
written agreement, capital directive, or prompt corrective
action directive to meet or maintain a specific capital
level. At December 31, 1999, the bank had ratios that
exceeded the minimum requirements established for the "well
capitalized" category.
In management's opinion, there are no known trends, events
or uncertainties that will have or that are reasonably
likely to have a material effect on the Company's liquidity,
capital resources or operations.
Securities and Federal Funds Sold
Securities, including those classified as held to maturity
and available for sale, decreased from $72.4 million at
December 31, 1998 to $70.6 million at December 31, 1999.
The decrease is attributable to the increased loan demand.
Federal funds sold totaled $675 thousand at December 31,
1999.
Per Company policy, fixed rate asset backed securities will
not have an average life exceeding seven years, but final
maturity may be longer. Adjustable rate securities shall
adjust within three years per Company policy. Of the $14.6
million of adjustable asset backed securities held on
December 31, 1999, $3.4 million are repriceable monthly and
the remaining $11.2 million is repriceable annually. In
addition, all applicable securities have passed the
appropriate stress tests. The following tables present the
investment securities for each of the past three years and

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The majority of Bourbon's assets and liabilities are
monetary in nature. Therefore, Bourbon differs greatly from
most commercial and industrial companies that have
significant investments in nonmonetary assets and
inventories. However, inflation does have an important
impact on the growing of assets in the banking industry and
the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than
normal rates in order to maintain an appropriate equity to
assets ratio. Inflation also affects other expenses, which
tend to rise during periods of inflation.
Other Accounting Issues
Beginning January 1, 2001, 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.
Year 2000
The Company assessed the operational and financial
implications of its Year 2000 needs and developed a plan to
address its data processing systems and their ability to
handle the change. The Company also assessed the Year 2000
readiness of other third party entities such as public
utilities and governmental units. These and other like
entities provide important ongoing services to the Company.
Therefore, management also developed contingency plans for
continued operations. The Company's credit customers were
also subject to review for potential losses as a result of
Year 2000 exposure in their own computer systems as well as
the computer systems of their suppliers and customers.
Management believes its plan was successful as all operating
systems performed will during the year change. While
management does not expect future problems resulting from
the Year 2000 issue, it is possible that other dates in the
year 2000 may further affect computer software and systems,
or cause a Year 2000 problem relating to the Company's own
systems or to those of third parties with whom the Company
conducts business that could adversely affect its financial
condition.
Costs for this project were under $150 thousand, with the
majority of this expenditure being for equipment and
software to be capitalized over 3-5 years.
Monitoring of computer date sensitive issues will continue
in 2000. Corrective action will be taken if such an event
arises. Management has determined that if an unlikely
business interruption as a result of computer date sensitive
issues occurred, such an interruption could be material to
the overall financial performance of the Company.
Forward-Looking Statements
This discussion contains forward-looking statements under
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that
involve risks and uncertainties. Although the Company
believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking
statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the
assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, there can be
no assurance that the forward-looking statements included
herein will prove to be accurate. Factors that could cause
actual results to differ from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
economic conditions (both generally and more specifically in
the markets, including the tobacco market, in which the
Company and its bank operate); competition for the Company's
customers from other providers of financial and mortgage
services; government legislation and regulation (which
changes from time to time and over which the Company has no
control); changes in interest rates (both generally and more
specifically mortgage interest rates); material unforeseen
changes in the liquidity, results of operations, or
financial condition of the Company's customers; material
unforeseen complications related to addressing the Year 2000
problem experienced by the Company, its suppliers, customers
and governmental agencies; and other risks detailed in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, all of which are difficult to predict and many
of which are beyond the control of the Company. The Company
undertakes no obligation to republish revised
forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events.
Item 7A. Asset/Liability Management, Interest Rate
Sensitivity, Market Risk and Liquidity
Asset/Liability management control is designed to ensure
safety and soundness, maintain liquidity and regulatory
capital standards, and achieve acceptable net interest
income. Management considers interest rate risk to be the
most significant market risk. The Company's exposure to
market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the
Asset/Liability Committee. Interest rate risk is the
potential of economic losses due to future interest rate
changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss
of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair
market values. The objective is to measure the effect on
net interest income and to adjust the balance sheet to
minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximize
income. Management realizes certain risks are inherent and
that the goal is to identify and minimize the risks. Tools
used by management include the standard GAP model and an
interest rate shock simulation model. The Bank has no
market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes.
The following table depicts the change in net interest
income resulting from 100 and 300 basis point changes in
rates. The projections are based on balance sheet growth
assumptions and repricing opportunities for new, maturing
and adjustable rate amounts. In addition, the projected
percentage changes from level rates are outlined below along
with the Board of Directors specified limits. As of
December 31, 1999 the projected percentage changes are
within the Board limits and the Company's interest rate risk
is also within Board limits. The projected net interest
income report summarizing the Company's interest rate
sensitivity as of December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 is
as follows:
Projected Net Interest Income (December 31, 1999)

Interest Expense 7,317 9,281 10,264 11,246 13,210
Net Interest Income 12,672 12,846 12,946 13,049 13,253
Net interest income dollar change (274) (100) 103 307
Net interest income percentage
change -2.1% -0.8% N/A 0.8% 2.4%
Limitation on % Change >-10.0% >-4.0% N/A >-4.0% >-10.0%
These numbers are comparable to 1998. In 1998 and 1999,
year one reflected a decline in net interest income of 2.1%
with a 300 basis point decline. The 300 basis point
increase in rates reflected a 2.4% increase in net interest
income in 1998 compared to 2.2% in 1999.
Management measures the Company's interest rate risk by
computing estimated changes in net interest income in the
event of a range of assumed changes in market interest
rates. The Company's exposure to interest rates is reviewed
on a monthly basis by senior management and quarterly with
the Board of Directors. Exposure to interest rate risk is
measured with the use of interest rate sensitivity analysis
to determine the change in net interest income in the event
of hypothetical changes in interest rates, while interest
rate sensitivity gap analysis is used to determine the
repricing characteristics of the Company's assets and
liabilities. If estimated changes to net interest income
are not within the limits established by the Board, the
Board may direct management to adjust the Company's asset
and liability mix to bring interest rate risk within Board
approved limits.
In addition, the Company uses interest rate sensitivity gap
analysis to monitor the relationship between the maturity
and repricing of its interest-earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities, while maintaining an acceptable
interest rate spread. Interest rate sensitivity gap is
defined as the difference between the amount of interest-
earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time
period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities
maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is
considered positive when the amount of interest-rate-
sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-sensitive-
liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of
interest-rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of
interest-rate-sensitive assets. Generally, during a period
of rising interest rates, a negative gap would adversely
affect net interest income, while a positive gap would
result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely,
during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap
would result in an increase in net interest income, while a
positive gap would negatively affect net interest income.
The Company's goal is to maintain a reasonable balance
between exposure to interest rate fluctuations and earnings.
The interest rate sensitivity analysis as of December 31,
1999 shown below depicts amounts based on the earliest
period in which they can normally be expected to reprice.
The chart reveals that assets and liabilities are fairly
well matched for the early periods specified below. The
decay rates used for Demand deposits, NOW's, Savings and
Money Market Savings are 5%, 30%, 20% and 30%, respectively.

Little change in the above numbers has occurred since 1998.
For the first three repricing years in 1998 and 1999, the
cumulative gap percentage is less than 4%. There was a
slight decrease in the cumulative gap for the three-year
repricing period from 3.15% in 1998 to 1.00% in 1999. The
cumulative gap at December 31, 1998 for the 5-year period
was 14.7%. This decreased to 12.2% as of December 31, 1999.
These percentages remain below the Board established
guidelines.
Liquidity risk is the possibility that Bourbon may not be
able to meet its cash requirements. Management of liquidity
risk includes maintenance of adequate cash and sources of
cash to fund operations and meeting the needs of borrowers,
depositors and creditors. Excess liquidity has a negative
impact on earnings resulting from the lower yields on short-
term assets.
In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the securities
portfolio provides an important source of liquidity. Total
securities maturing within one year along with cash and cash
equivalents totaled $35.3 million at December 31, 1999.
Additionally, securities available-for-sale with maturities
greater than one year totaled $41.0 million at December 31,
1999. These securities are available to meet liquidity
needs on a continuing basis.
Bourbon maintains a relatively stable base of customer
deposits and its steady growth is expected to be adequate to
meet its funding demands. In addition, management believes
the majority of its $100,000 or more certificates of deposit
are no more volatile than its core deposits. At December
31, 1999 these balances totaled $35 million, approximately
12.6% of total deposits.
The Company also relies on FHLB advances for both liquidity
and asset/liability management purposes. These advances are
used primarily to fund long-term fixed rate residential
mortgage loans. FHLB advances increased $19.6 million in
1999 to $26.6 million.
Generally, Bourbon relies upon net cash inflows from
financing activities, supplemented by net cash inflows from
operating activities, to provide cash used in its investing
activities. As is typical of many financial institutions,
significant financing activities include deposit gathering,
and the use of short-term borrowings, such as federal funds
purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements
along with long-term debt. The Company's primary investing
activities include purchasing investment securities and loan
originations. Management believes there is sufficient
liquidity to meet all reasonable borrower, depositor and
creditor needs in the present economic environment.
The cash flow statements for the periods presented provide
an indication of Bourbon's sources and uses of cash as well
as an indication of the ability of Bourbon to maintain an
adequate level of liquidity. A discussion of cash flow
statements for 1999, 1998 and 1997 follows.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.3 million,
$3.5 million and $5.2 million for the years ended December
31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The changes in 1999
and 1998 were mainly a result of the increase in net income
from $3.4 million to $3.8 million to $3.5 million in 1997,
1998 and 1999, respectively. In addition for 1999, $2.6
million more was received from the sale of loans versus the
origination of loans held for sale.
Net cash flow used in investing activities was $23.9
million, $20.0 million, and $15.8 million and for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
changes in net cash from investing activities included the
result of normal maturities and reinvestment of investment
securities as well as funding related to increases in loans.
In 1999, funding for loan growth was $32 million. This was
partially offset by the $8 million acquired in the Wilmore
Branch acquisition. During 1998, funds used for loan growth
were $28 million, partly offset by a decline in investments
of $9 million. In 1997 and 1998, over $1.1 million was
invested in the new Georgetown branch that opened in August
1998. In addition, over $400 thousand investment was made
to upgrade the existing hardware and software.
Net cash flow from financing activities was $25.6 million,
$14.9 million and $13.7 million for the years ended December
31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The net cash
increases and decreases were primarily attributable to
changes in total deposits, securities sold under agreements
to repurchase and federal funds purchased, and net changes
in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and other
borrowings. The chance in deposits was $6.8 million, $17.4
million and $10.3 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $20
million in 1999 and $4 million in 1998.
A number of other techniques are used to measure the
liquidity position, including the ratios presented below.
These ratios are calculated based on annual averages for
each year.
Liquidity Ratios
December 31
1999 1998 1997
Average Loans (including loans held
for sale)/Average Deposits 83.9% 78.7% 73.6%
Average Securities sold under
agreements to repurchase and other
borrowings/Average Assets 2.6% 1.8% 1.8%
This chart shows that the loan to deposit ratio increased in
1999 and 1998. Loan growth of 15% and deposit growth of 6%
have both been contributing factors to the greater change in
this ratio from 1997 to 1998 compared to the previous year.

BOURBON BANCSHARES, INC.
ANNUAL REPORT 1999
Dear Shareholders,
Agriculture has long been important to central
Kentucky. It has provided a livelihood for many and
indirect benefits to many more. Much of the cash flow from
these farms are from raising tobacco. Therefore it is a
blow to our entire region that tobacco production will be
cut so drastically. This has many of our customers taking a
hard look at their operations and trying to adjust to the
inevitable changes.
We are fortunate that the overall economy in central
Kentucky remains strong. Population is growing and
unemployment is low. This environment should make it easier
for both the bank and our customers to adapt.
Bourbon Bancshares, Inc. had an outstanding year in
1999. Earnings rose by 17%. The loan portfolio grew more
than 15% for the third consecutive year. Total assets
reached an all time high of $347 million.
We were able to expand our franchise during 1999. In
August we acquired a branch in Wilmore. This fit in
perfectly with our geographic pattern in the smaller
communities around Lexington. We now have eleven offices in
eight different communities, all around the perimeter of
Lexington.
As we start the new year the Internet continues to grow
in commercial importance. Kentucky Bank has been preparing
to offer Internet service to all its customers at
www.kybank.com. We expect this to be started during the
first quarter of 2000.
Plans are also underway to continue improving our
facilities. There will be an historic renovation project of
the headquarters building in downtown Paris that will
include exterior renovation. There will also be expansion
of one of our most valuable sites, the branch in Winchester
at Colby Road. This will include expanding from three drive-
in lanes to six.
At year-end our Executive Vice President Joe Allen
retired as an employee of Kentucky Bank. His total banking
career spanned fifty-two years. His many friends at the
bank wish him a very happy and well-deserved retirement.
/s/Buckner Woodford

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Bourbon Bancshares, Inc. (the Company)
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kentucky Bank (the Bank).
Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Nature of Operations: The Bank operates under a state bank
charter and provides full banking services, including trust
services, to customers located in Bourbon, Clark, Scott,
Harrison, Woodford, Jessamine, and adjoining counties in
Kentucky. As a state bank, the Bank is subject to regulation by
the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Company, a bank holding
company, is regulated by the Federal Reserve.
Branch Acquisition: On August 13, 1999, the Bank acquired the
Wilmore, Kentucky branch of National City Bank. Included in the
purchase were $9.0 million in net deposits and $353,000 in fixed
assets. The net deposits assumed exceeded the cash received by
$287,000.
Estimates in the Financial Statements: The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for
loan losses and fair value of financial instruments are
particularly subject to change.
Cash Flows: For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash
equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, federal
funds sold, and certain short-term investments with maturities of
less than three months. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-
day periods. Net cash flows are reported for loan and deposit
transactions.
Investment Securities: The Company is required to classify its
investment securities portfolio into three categories: trading
securities, securities available for sale and securities held to
maturity. Fair value adjustments are made to the securities based
on their classification with the exception of the held to
maturity category. The Company has no investments classified as
trading.
Investment securities available for sale are carried at fair
value. The difference between amortized cost and fair value is
recorded in stockholders' equity, net of related income tax,
under accumulated other comprehensive income. Changes in this
difference are recorded as a component of comprehensive income.
Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recorded
as adjustments to interest income using the constant yield
method.
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Investment securities for which the Company has the positive
intent and ability to hold to maturity are stated at cost,
adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts
which are recorded as adjustments to interest income using the
constant yield method.
Gains or losses on dispositions are based on the net proceeds and
the adjusted carrying amount of the securities sold, using the
specific identification method.
Loans Held for Sale: Loans held for sale are valued at the lower
of cost or market as determined by outstanding commitments from
investors or current investor yield requirements, calculated on
the aggregate loan basis.
Loans: Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal,
reduced by an allowance for loan losses. Interest income on
loans is recognized on the accrual basis except for those loans
on a nonaccrual status. The accrual of interest on impaired loans
is discontinued when management believes, after consideration of
economic and business conditions and collection efforts, that the
borrowers' financial condition is such that collection of
interest is doubtful. When interest accrual is discontinued,
interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent
cash payments are received.
Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are
capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield on the
related loan.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is
established through a provision for loan losses charged to
expense. The allowance is an amount that management believes will
be adequate to absorb losses on existing loans that may become
uncollectible, based on evaluations of the collectibility of
loans and prior loan loss experience. The evaluations take into
consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of
the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific
problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect
the borrowers' ability to pay. Loans are charged against the
allowance for loan losses when management believes that the
collectibility of the principal is unlikely.
The allowance for loan losses on impaired loans is determined
using the present value of estimated future cash flows of the
loan, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or the
fair value of the underlying collateral. A loan is considered to
be impaired when it is probable that all principal and interest
amounts will not be collected according to the loan contract. The
entire change in present value of expected cash flows is reported
as provision for loan losses in the same manner in which
impairment initially was recognized or as a reduction in the
amount of provision for loan losses that otherwise would be
reported.
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Mortgage Servicing Rights: The Bank has sold various loans to
the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) while
retaining the servicing rights. Gains and losses on loan sales
are recorded at the time of the cash sale, which represents the
premium or discount paid by the FHLMC. The Bank receives a
servicing fee from the FHLMC on each loan sold. Servicing rights
are capitalized based on the relative fair value of the rights
and the loan and are included in intangible assets on the balance
sheet and expensed in proportion to, and over the period of,
estimated net servicing revenues.
Bank Premises and Equipment: Bank premises and equipment are
stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
recorded principally by the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the bank premises and equipment.
Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure: Real estate acquired
through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the recorded
investment in the property or its fair value. The value of the
underlying loan is written down to the fair value of the real
estate to be acquired by a charge to the allowance for loan
losses, if necessary. Any subsequent write-downs are charged to
operating expenses. Certain parcels of real estate are being
leased to third parties to offset holding period costs. Operating
expenses of such properties, net of related income, and gains and
losses on their disposition are included in other expenses.
Repurchase Agreements: Substantially all repurchase agreement
liabilities represent amounts advanced by various customers.
Securities are pledged to cover these liabilities, which are not
covered by federal deposit insurance.
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. The Company uses the liability method
for computing deferred income taxes. Under the liability method,
deferred income taxes are based on the change during the year in
the deferred tax liability or asset established for the expected
future tax consequences of differences in the financial reporting
and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The differences relate
principally to premises and equipment, accrued pension, premium
on loans and deposits purchased, unrealized gains (losses) on
investment securities available for sale, mortgage servicing
rights, FHLB stock, and the allowance for loan losses.
Intangible Assets: Intangible assets include a premium on
deposits paid in connection with the acquisition of branches
which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten or
fifteen years and capitalized mortgage servicing rights which are
being amortized over the life of the related loans.
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Earnings Per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share is
net income divided by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential
common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings and
dividends per share are restated for all stock splits and
dividends through the date of issuance of the financial
statements.
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 are also recognized as a separate
component of equity.
New Accounting Pronouncements: Beginning January 1, 2001, 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.
Industry Segments: While the Company's chief decision makers
monitor the revenue streams of the various Company products and
services, operations are managed and financial performance is
evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the
Company's operations are considered by management to be
aggregated into one reportable operating segment.
NOTE 2 - RESTRICTIONS ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS
Included in cash and due from banks are certain non-interest
bearing deposits that are held at the Federal Reserve or
maintained in vault cash in accordance with average balance
requirements specified by the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.
The reserve requirement at December 31, 1999 and 1998 was
$7,544,000 and $5,988,000.

NOTE 11 - RETIREMENT PLANS (Continued)
The Company also has a qualified profit sharing plan which covers
substantially all employees and includes a 401(k) provision.
Profit sharing contributions, excluding the 401(k) provision, are
at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. Expense
recognized in connection with the plan was $165,087, $181,743 and
$166,647 in 1999, 1998 and 1997.
NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company has stock option plans, which are accounted for in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related
interpretations. Under the plans, the Company grants certain
directors, officers and key employees stock option awards which
vest and become fully exercisable at the end of five years. The
exercise price of each option, which has a ten year life, was
equal to the market price of the Company's stock on the date of
grant; therefore, no compensation expense was recognized.
Although the Company has elected to follow APB No. 25, Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation", requires pro forma disclosures of net
income and earnings per share as if the Company had accounted for
its employee stock options under that Statement. The fair value
of each option grant was estimated on the grant date using an
option-pricing model.

NOTE 13 - LIMITATION ON BANK DIVIDENDS
The Company's principal source of funds is dividends received
from the Bank. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends
that may be paid by the Bank without prior approval of regulatory
agencies. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that
may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year's
net profits, as defined, combined with the retained net profits
of the preceding two years. During 2000 the Bank could, without
prior approval, declare dividends of approximately $3,254,000
plus any 2000 net profits retained to the date of the dividend
declaration.
NOTE 14 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair values of the Company's financial instruments at
December 31, 1999 and 1998 are as follows:
1999 1998
Carrying Fair Carrying Fair
Amount Value Amount Value
(In Thousands)
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents $ 20,717 $ 20,717 $ 10,756 $10,756
Investment securities 70,623 70,847 72,353 73,274
Mortgage loans held for sale 3,494 3,494 5,909 5,978

FHLB advances 26,592 25,892 6,954 7,033
Interest payable 2,142 2,142 1,789 1,789
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
analysis or underlying collateral values. Fair value of debt is
based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is not
considered material.
NOTE 15 - OFF BALANCE SHEET ACTIVITIES
Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit
lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection, are issued to
meet customer financing needs. These are agreements 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 loss 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.
Financial instruments with off balance sheet risk were as follows
at year-end:
1999 1998
Unused lines of credit $37,976,000 $34,728,000
Commitments to make loans 3,800,000 3,892,000
Letters of credit 453,000 586,000
Commitments to sell loans - 4,000,000
Unused lines of credit are substantially all at variable rates.
Commitments to make loans are generally made for a period of 60
days or less and are primarily fixed at current market rates
ranging from 7.63% to 8.25% with maturities ranging from 15 to 30
years.
Commitments to sell loans are to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation and have an underlying interest rate designed to
transfer risk associated with loans held for sale and commitments
to make loans that are intended to be sold. The notional amount
of commitments to sell loans represent amounts of loans that have
been committed for delivery on a specified date and within
certain interest rate ranges, not credit exposure.
NOTE 16 - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Bank is a defendant in legal actions arising from normal
business activities. Management believes these actions are
without merit or that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting
from them will not materially affect the Company's consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 17 - STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
Stock Split: On March 9, 1999, the stockholders approved an
amendment to Bourbon Bancshares, Inc.'s Articles of Incorporation
to increase the authorized common stock to 10,000,000 shares. On
June 8, 1999, the stockholders approved a two-for-one common
stock split. All shares and per share amounts have been
retroactively restated to reflect the split.
NOTE 17 - STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY (Continued)
Regulatory Matters: The Company and the Bank are subject to
various regulatory capital requirements administered by the
federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible
additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if
undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's
financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company
and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of the Company's and the Bank's assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and Bank
capital amounts and classifications are also subject to
qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk
weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital
adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum
amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of Total and
Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted
assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital to average assets (as
defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 1999 and 1998,
that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy
requirements to which they are subject.
The most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be
categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum
Total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as
set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or
events since that notification that management believes have
changed the institution's category.
The Company's and the Bank's actual amounts and ratios are
presented in the table below:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors
Bourbon Bancshares, Inc.
Paris, Kentucky
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Bourbon Bancshares, Inc. as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and
the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive
income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Bourbon Bancshares, Inc. as of December 31, 1999 and
1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Board recommends that shareholders vote FOR the election
of the Board's nominees for Class I directors and the
ratification of the Board's appointment of Crowe, Chizek and
Company LLP as the Company's independent auditors for the 2000
fiscal year. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board
knows of no other business to come before the Annual Meeting.
Voting Rights and Proxy Information
Only holders of record of Common Shares as of the close of
business on the Annual Meeting Record Date will be entitled to
notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or
postponement thereof. As of December 31, 1999, there were
2,802,471 Common Shares outstanding and entitled to vote at the
Annual Meeting. The presence either in person or by properly
executed proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
Common Shares as of the Annual Meeting Record Date is necessary
to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Holders of Common
Shares are entitled to one vote per share on any matter, other
than the election of directors, that may properly come before the
Annual Meeting. In the election of directors, holders of Common
Shares have cumulative voting rights whereby each holder is
entitled to vote the number of Common Shares owned multiplied by
two (the number of directors to be elected at the Annual
Meeting), and each holder may cast the whole number of votes for
one candidate or distribute such votes among two or more
candidates. The Board of Directors is soliciting discretionary
authority for the individuals appointed in the proxies to
cumulate votes represented by properly executed proxies and to
vote for less than all the Company's nominees to the Board if
deemed appropriate to ensure the election of as many of the
Company's nominees to the Board as possible.
Those persons receiving the two highest number of votes in
the election of directors (net of any votes against their
election) will be elected to the Board. The appointment of
Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP as the company's independent
auditors for the 2000 year will be ratified, if the votes cast in
favor of ratification exceed the votes cast against that matter.
All Common Shares that are represented at the Annual Meeting
by properly executed proxies received prior to or at the Annual
Meeting and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting in
accordance with the instructions indicated in such proxies. If
no instructions are indicated, such proxies will be voted "FOR"
(I) the election of the Board's two nominees as Class I directors
of the Company (or, if deemed appropriate by the individuals
appointed in the proxies, cumulatively voted for less than all of
the Board's nominees) and (II) the ratification of Crowe, Chizek
and Company LLP as the Company's independent auditors for the
2000 year.
Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked
by the person giving it at any time before it is voted. Proxies
may be revoked by (i) filing with the Company, to the attention
of William C. Reynolds, Secretary, at or before the Annual
Meeting, a written notice of revocation bearing a later date than
the proxy, (ii) duly executing a subsequent proxy relating to the
same Common Shares and delivering it to the Company at or before
the Annual Meeting or (iii) attending the Annual Meeting and
voting in person (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will
not in and of itself constitute a revocation of a proxy). Any
written notice revoking a proxy should be sent to Bourbon
Bancshares, Inc., P. O. Box 157, Paris, Kentucky 40362-0157,
Attention: William C. Reynolds, Secretary.
The Company will bear the cost of the solicitation of
proxies by the Board in connection with the Annual Meeting. In
addition to solicitation by mail, the Company will request banks,
brokers and other custodian nominees and fiduciaries to supply
proxy material to the beneficial owners of Common Shares, and
will reimburse them for their expenses in so doing. Certain
directors, officers and other employees of the Company, not
specially employed for this purpose, may solicit proxies without
additional remuneration therefore, by personal interview, mail,
telephone, facsimile or other electronic means.
ITEM 1 -- ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Board of
Directors consists of three different classes (Class I, Class II
and Class III), each to serve, subject to the provisions of the
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws for a three year term and
until his successor is duly elected and qualified. Except as
listed below, each nominee for a Class II directorship has held
the specified position for the last five years. The names of the
nominees proposed for election as Class I directors, all of whom
are presently directors of the Company, are set forth below. The
Company is not aware of any other individual who may be nominated
for election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting.
William R. Stamler, Retired, is a consultant of Stamler Corp,
Oldenburg Group. He has been a director since 1988.
Buckner Woodford, President of the bank and holding company.
Became a director in 1981.
The Board of Directors does not contemplate that any of the
nominees will be unable to accept election as a director for any
reason. However, in the event that one or more of such nominees
is unable or unwilling to accept or is unavailable to serve, the
persons named in the proxies or their substitutes shall have
authority, according to their judgment, to vote or to refrain
from voting for other individuals as directors.
The Board recommends that shareholders vote "FOR" each of
the above nominees for election as Class I directors of the
Company.
ITEM 2 -- RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Company has appointed Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP,
Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky as the Company's independent
auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2000. Eskew &
Gresham, P.S.C. has served as the Company's independent auditors
since 1982. In January 1998 Eskew & Gresham was merged into
Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP. Services provided to the Company
and its subsidiaries by Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP with
respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 included the
examination of the Company's consolidated financial statements
and consultations on various tax matters.
In the event shareholders do not ratify the appointment of
Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP as the Company's independent
auditors for the 2000 year such appointment will be reconsidered
by the Board.
The Board recommends that shareholders vote "FOR"
ratification of the appointment of Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP
as the Company's independent auditors for the 2000 year.
