NOTE 4: TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES
On June 18, 2001, First Busey Corporation ("Corporation") issued $25 million of
Trust Preferred Securities ("Securities") through First Busey Capital Trust I
("Trust"), a statutory business trust and wholly owned subsidiary of the
Corporation. The Securities pay cumulative cash distributions quarterly at an
annual rate of 9.00%. Proceeds from the sale of the Securities were invested by
the Trust in 9.00% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures issued by
the Corporation which represents all of the assets of the Trust. The Securities
are subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or in part, upon repayment of the
Junior Subordinated Debentures at the stated maturity or their earlier
redemption, in each case at a redemption price equal to the aggregate
liquidation preference of the Securities plus any accumulated and unpaid
distributions thereon to the date of redemption. Prior redemption is permitted
under certain circumstances such as changes in tax and investment company
regulations. The Corporation fully and unconditionally guarantees the
Securities through the combined operation of the debentures and related
documents. The Corporation's obligations under the guarantee are unsecured and
subordinate to all of the Corporation's senior and subordinated indebtedness.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition
of First Busey Corporation and Subsidiaries ("Corporation") at September 30,
2001 (unaudited) when compared with December 31, 2000 and the results of
operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 (unaudited) and
the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000
(unaudited). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Corporation's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing
elsewhere in this quarterly report.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AS COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2000
Total assets decreased $29,088,000, or 2.1%, to $1,325,956,000 at September 30,
2001 from $1,355,044,000 at December 31, 2000.
Securities available for sale increased $12,853,000, or 5.6%, to $241,450,000 at
September 30, 2001 from $228,597,000 at December 31, 2000.
Loans decreased $48,690,000 or 4.9%, to $935,679,000 at September 30, 2001 from
$984,369,000 at December 31, 2000, primarily due to decreases in commercial, 1-4
family residential mortgage, and multifamily mortgage loans. These decreases
were partially offset by increases in non-farm nonresidential real estate and
installment loans.
Total deposits decreased $24,592,000, or 2.1%, to $1,124,195,000 at September
30, 2001 from $1,148,787,000 at December 31, 2000. Non-interest bearing
deposits increased $1,160,000 to $135,829,000 at September 30, 2001 from
$134,669,000 at December 31, 2000. Interest-bearing deposits decreased
$25,752,000 to $988,366,000 at September 30, 2001 from $1,014,118,000 at
December 31, 2000. Short-term borrowings decreased $27,000,000 to $5,283,000 at
September 30, 2001, as compared to $32,283,000 at December 31, 2000. In June,
2001, the Corporation issued $25,000,000 in trust preferred securities. The
proceeds were used to reduce short-term debt associated with the purchase of
Busey Bankfsb in October, 1999. Long-term debt decreased $7,976,000 to
$45,000,000 at September 30, 2001, as compared to $52,976,000 at December 31,
2000.
In the first nine months of 2001, the Corporation repurchased 133,734 shares of
its common stock at an aggregate cost of $2,535,000. The Corporation is
purchasing shares for the treasury as they become available in order to meet
future issuance requirements of previously granted non-qualified stock options.
The following table sets forth the components of non-performing assets and past
due loans.

==================== ===================
Total non-performing assets as a percentage of loans plus non-

==================== ===================
The ratio of non-performing assets to loans plus non-performing assets decreased
to 0.27% at September 30, 2001 from 0.57% at December 31, 2000. This was due
primarily to a decrease in the balance of loans 90 days past due and still
accruing, partially offset by an increase in non-accrual loans. The overall
reduction in non-performing assets is the result of management's efforts to
implement more vigorous underwriting standards and more aggressive collection
procedures to reduce the balance of non-performing loans.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AS COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
SUMMARY
- -------
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 increased 8.3% to
$11,986,000 as compared to $11,072,000 for the comparable period in 2000.
Diluted earnings per share increased 8.6% to $.88 at September 30, 2001 as
compared to $.81 for the same period in 2000.
Operating earnings, which exclude security gains and the related tax expense,
were $11,337,000, or $.83 per share for the nine months ended September 30,
2001, as compared to $10,863,000, or $.80 per share for the same period in 2000.
The Corporation's return on average assets was 1.22% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001, as compared to 1.19% for the comparable period in 2000. The
return on average assets from operations of 1.15% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 was 2 basis points lower than the 1.17% level achieved in the
comparable period of 2000.
Net interest margin, the Corporation's net interest income expressed as a
percentage of average earning assets stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis,
was 3.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, or 20 basis points lower
than the 3.81% for the same period in 2000. The net interest margin expressed
as a percentage of average total assets, also on a fully taxable equivalent
basis, was 3.39% for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, or 16 basis
points lower than the to 3.55% for the same period in 2000. As interest rates
have declined, the yield on interest-earning assets has decreased by greater
degree than the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Corporation recognized
security gains of approximately $649,000, after income taxes, representing 5.4%
of net income. During the same period in 2000, security gains of $209,000,
after income taxes, were recognized, representing 1.9% of net income.
INTEREST INCOME
- ---------------
Interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, for the nine months ended September
30, 2001 increased 1.9% to $70,636,000 from $69,337,000 for the comparable
period in 2000. The increase in interest income resulted primarily from an
increase in average earning assets of $81,489,000 for the period ended September
30, 2001, as compared to the same period of 2000. The growth in average
interest-earning assets was offset by the decline in yields earned on all
categories of interest-earning assets. The average yield on interest-earning
assets for the period ended September 30, 2001, decreased to 7.63% from 8.01%
for the same period in 2000.
INTEREST EXPENSE
- ----------------
Total interest expense increased $867,000 or 2.4% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 as compared to the prior year period. Most of the increase
in interest expense is attributable to growth in the average balances of
interest-bearing checking accounts, money market deposits, and time deposits.
This volume growth was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of
short-term borrowings. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities
fell 11 basis points for the nine months ending September 30, 2001, as compared
to the prior year period. This decline is primarily due to decreases in the
rates paid on savings, money market deposits, and other short-term debt, which
were partially offset by increases in the rates paid on time deposits and
long-term debt.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
- -------------------------
The provision for loan losses of $1,145,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2001 is $530,000 less than the provision for the comparable period in 2000.
The provision and the net charge-offs of $436,000 for the period resulted in the
reserve representing 1.39% of total loans and 518% of non-performing loans at
September 30, 2001, as compared to the reserve representing 1.25% of total loans
and 216% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2000.

OTHER INCOME, OTHER EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES
- --------------------------------------------
Total other income, excluding security gains, increased $2,519,000 or 19.4% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2001, as compared to the same period in
2000. This increase is due primarily to growth in trust, commissions and
brokers' fees, service charges on deposit accounts, gains on the sale of pooled
loans, and other operating income. Gains of $1,634,000 were recognized on the
sale of $174,944,000 of pooled loans for the nine months ended September 30,
2001 as compared to gains of $827,000 on the sale of $40,007,000 of pooled loans
in the prior year period.
Management anticipates continued sales from the current mortgage loan production
of the Corporation in order to maintain the asset/liability structure the
Corporation is trying to effect. The Corporation may realize gains and/or
losses on these sales dependent upon interest rate movements and upon how
receptive the debt markets are to mortgage backed securities.
Total other expenses increased 9.2% or $2,426,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000.
Salaries and wages expense increased $1,223,000 or 10.3%, and employee benefits
expense increased $435,000 or 20.0% for the nine months ended September 30,
2001, as compared to the same period last year. The Corporation had 490 full
time equivalent employees as of September 30, 2001 as compared to 495 as of
September 30, 2000. Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses increased
9.0% to $5,207,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $4,775,000
in the prior year period. In October 2000, Busey Bank fsb opened a full-service
branch office in Fort Myers, Florida. The majority of the increases in salaries
and wages, occupancy, and furniture and equipment expenses can be attributed to
the opening of this branch office. Data processing expense decreased $368,000
to $587,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from the prior year
period. During June of 2000, Busey Bankfsb converted from its existing
outsourced data processor to a solution provided in-house by Busey Bank.
Nonrecurring costs associated with this conversion and included in 2000 data
processing expenses totaled $180,000.
The Corporation's net overhead expense, total non-interest expense less
non-interest income, excluding security gains, divided by average assets,
decreased to 1.36% for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from 1.45% in
the prior year period as a result of the income and expense items described
above.
The Corporation's efficiency ratio is defined as operating expenses divided by
net revenue. (More specifically it is defined as non-interest expense expressed
as a percentage of the sum of tax equivalent net interest income and
non-interest income, excluding security gains). The consolidated efficiency
ratio for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 was 59.1% as compared to 57.7% for the prior year period.
When the gains on the sales of pooled loans are excluded, these ratios are 61.2%
and 58.7%, respectively. The change in the current year efficiency ratio is due
to the income and expense items noted above.
Income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 increased to
$6,922,000 as compared to $6,080,000 for the comparable period in 2000. As a
percent of income before taxes, the provision for income taxes increased to
36.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from 35.4% for the same
period in 2000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AS COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
SUMMARY
- -------
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2001 increased 9.3% to
$3,861,000 as compared to $3,533,000 for the comparable period in 2000. Diluted
earnings per share increased 7.7% to $.28 at September 30, 2001 as compared to
$.26 for the same period in 2000.
11 of 24
Operating earnings, which exclude security gains and the related tax expense,
were $3,738,000, or $.27 per share for the three months ended September 30,
2001, as compared to $3,339,000, or $.25 per share for the same period in 2000.
The Corporation's return on average assets was 1.17% for the three months ended
September 30, 2001, as compared to 1.10% achieved for the comparable period in
2000. The return on average assets from operations of 1.14% for the three
months ended September 30, 2001 is 10 basis points higher than the 1.04% level
achieved in the comparable period of 2000.
The net interest margin expressed as a percentage of average earning assets was
3.59% for the three months ended September 30, 2001, or 17 basis points lower
than the 3.76% level achieved for the like period in 2000. The net interest
margin expressed as a percentage of average total assets was 3.37% for the three
months ended September 30, 2001, or 13 basis points lower than the 3.50% for the
same period in 2000.
During the three months ended September 30, 2001, the Corporation recognized
security gains of approximately $123,000, after income taxes, representing 3.2%
of net income. During the same period in 2000, security gains of approximately
$194,000, after income taxes, were recognized, representing 5.5% of net income.
INTEREST INCOME
- ---------------
Interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased $1,981,000 or 8.2%
for the three months ended September 30, 2001 from the same period in 2000. The
increase resulted from a higher level of interest income on greater average
volumes of Federal funds sold and investment securities offset by a decline in
the average balance of loans outstanding for the three months ended September
30, 2001 as compared to the same period of 2000. The yield on interest earning
assets for the three months ended September 30, 2001, decreased to 7.23% from
8.15% for the same period in 2000, as all categories of interest-earning assets
have been impacted by the decline in market interest rates.
INTEREST EXPENSE
- ----------------
Total interest expense decreased $1,837,000, or 14.0%, for the three months
ended September 30, 2001 as compared to the prior year period. This decrease
resulted from decreases in the average volumes of short-term borrowings offset
by increases in the average balances of money market deposits and long-term
debt. Most of the decrease can be attributed to the decline in the average
rates paid on all categories of interest-bearing deposits and short-term
borrowings offset by an increase in the average rate paid on long-term debt.
OTHER INCOME, OTHER EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES
- --------------------------------------------
Total other income, excluding security transactions, increased $1,270,000 or
31.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to the same
period in 2000. This was a combination of increased trust revenue, commissions
and brokers' fees, service charges on deposit accounts, gains on sales of pooled
loans, and other operating income. Gains of $668,000 were recognized on the
sale of $77,519,000 of pooled loans for the three months ended September 30,
2001 as compared to gains of $307,000 on the sale of $19,734,000 of pooled loans
in the prior year period.
Total other expenses increased 8.2% or $740,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000.
Salaries and wages expense increased $383,000 or 9.3% and employee benefits
expense increased $80,000 or 11.0% for the three months ended September 30,
2001, as compared to the same period last year. Occupancy and
furniture and equipment expenses increased 2.6% to $1,706,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2001 from $1,663,000 in the prior year period.
The consolidated efficiency ratio for the three months ended September 30, 2001
was 59.8% as compared to 59.4% for the prior year period. When the gains on the
sales of pooled loans are excluded, these ratios are 62.4% and 60.6%,
respectively. The change in the current year efficiency ratio is due to the
income and expense items noted above.
12 of 24
Income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2001 increased to
$2,336,000 as compared to $1,975,000 for the comparable period in 2000. As a
percent of income before taxes, the provision for income taxes increased to
37.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2001 from 35.9% for the same
period in 2000.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
- -----------------------------
In September 2000, Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 140
"Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities" was issued to replace Statement on Financial Accounting
Standards No. 125 which was issued in June 1996. Statement No. 125 addressed
issues related to transfers of financial assets in which the transferor has some
continuing involvement with the transferred assets or with the transferee.
Statement No. 140 resolves implementation issues which arose as a result of
Statement No. 125, but carries forward most of Statement No. 125's provisions.
Statement No. 140 is effective for transfers occurring after March 31, 2001, and
for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for
fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. Management does not believe the
adoption of Statement No. 140 will have a significant impact on its financial
statements.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 141,
"Business Combinations" (SFAS No. 141). SFAS No. 141 addresses financial
accounting and reporting for business combinations and supersedes APB Opinion
No. 16, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 38, "Accounting for Preacquisition
Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises." SFAS No. 141 requires all business
combinations in the scope of this SFAS to be accounted for using the purchase
method. SFAS No. 141 is effective for business combinations initiated after
June 30, 2001, and all business combinations accounted for using the purchase
method for which the acquisition date is July 1, 2001, or later.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
(FAS 142). The standard addresses financial accounting and reporting for
acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17,
"Intangible Assets." It addresses how intangible assets should be accounted for
at acquisition and in subsequent periods. Most significantly, goodwill and
intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives will not be amortized but
rather will be tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets that
have finite useful lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
The standard also provides specific guidance for testing goodwill for impairment
and requires additional disclosures about goodwill and intangible assets.
FAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The
standard is required to be applied to the beginning of an entity's fiscal year
and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in its
financial statements at that date. Impairment losses for goodwill and other
intangible assets with
indefinite lives that arise due to the initial application of this Standard are
to be reported as resulting from a change in accounting principle. The Company
does not believe the adoption of the Standard will have a material impact on the
consolidated financial statements.
In June 2001, Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 "Accounting
for Asset Retirement Obligations" was issued to address financial reporting and
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. This Statement applies to all entities and
to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that
result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operations of a
long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. Statement No. 143
is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2002.
In August 2001, Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" was issued to supersede
Statement No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of", and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30
"Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions." Statement No. 144 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and
interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application encouraged.

LIQUIDITY
- ---------
Liquidity is the availability of funds to meet all present and future financial
obligations arising in the daily operations of the business at a minimal cost.
These financial obligations consist of needs for funds to meet extensions of
credit, deposit withdrawals and debt servicing.
The sources of short-term liquidity utilized by the Corporation consist of
non-reinvested asset maturities, deposits and capital funds. Long-term
liquidity needs will be satisfied primarily through retention of capital funds.
The Corporation does not deal in or use brokered deposits as a source of
liquidity. The Corporation generally does not rely upon the purchases of
federal funds for liquidity needs. Additional liquidity is provided by bank
lines of credit, repurchase agreements and the ability to borrow from the
Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. The Corporation
has an operating line with American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago
in the amount of $10,000,000 with $7,000,000 available as of September 30, 2001.
14 of 24
The Corporation's dependence on large liabilities (defined as time deposits over
$100,000 and short-term borrowings) decreased to 9.9% at September 30, 2001 from
17.3% at December 31, 2000. This is the ratio of total large liabilities to
total liabilities, and is low in comparison to the Corporation's peers. This
decrease was due to a $64,564,000 decrease in time deposits over $100,000
combined with a $32,691,000 decrease in short-term debt.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -----------------
Other than from the issuance of common stock, the Corporation's primary source
of capital is retained net income. During the nine months ended September 30,
2001, the Corporation earned $11,986,000 and paid dividends of $5,242,000 to
stockholders, resulting in a retention of current earnings of $6,744,000. The
Corporation's dividend payout for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was
43.7%. The Corporation's total risk-based capital ratio was 13.89% and the Tier
1 leverage ratio was 6.59% as of September 30, 2001, as compared to 9.43% and
5.71% respectively as of December 31, 2000. The Corporation and its bank
subsidiary were above all minimum required capital ratios as of September 30,
2001.

RATE SENSITIVE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
- -------------------------------------
Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the volatility of the net interest
margin as a consequence of changes in market rates. The rate-sensitivity chart
shows the interval of time in which given volumes of rate-sensitive, earning
assets and rate-sensitive interest-bearing liabilities would be responsive to
changes in market interest rates based on their contractual maturities or terms
for repricing. It is, however, only a static single-day depiction of the
Corporation's rate sensitivity structure, which can be adjusted in response to
changes in forecasted interest rates.

The foregoing table shows a negative (liability sensitive) rate-sensitivity gap
of $195.9 million in the 1-30 day repricing category. On a cumulative basis,
the gap becomes slightly less liability sensitive in the period from 31 to 90
days as rate-sensitive assets that reprice are greater in volume than rate-
sensitive liabilities that are subject to repricing in the same respective time
period. In the period from 91 days to180 days, the gap again becomes
liability-sensitive, and then switches back to an asset-sensitive position
beyond 180 days. If rates on all rate-sensitive assets and liabilities moved by
the same amount in response to a given change in market interest rates, then the
composition of the gap structure at September 30, 2001, would benefit the
Corporation more if interest rates fall during the next year by allowing the net
interest margin to grow as liability rates would reprice more quickly than rates
on interest rate-sensitive assets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
MARKET RISK
- -----------
Market risk is the risk of change in asset values due to movements in underlying
market rates and prices. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and capital
arising from movements in interest rates. Interest rate risk is the most
significant market risk affecting the Corporation as other types of market risk,
such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not
arise in the normal course of the Corporation's business activities.
The Corporation's has an asset-liability committee which meets monthly to review
current market conditions and attempts to structure the Bank's and Thrift's
balance sheets to ensure stable net interest income despite potential changes in
interest rates with all other variables constant.
The asset-liability committee uses gap analysis to identify mismatches in the
dollar value of assets and liabilities subject to repricing within specific time
periods. The Funds Management Policy established by the asset-liability
committee and approved by the Corporation's board of directors establishes
guidelines for maintaining the ratio of cumulative rate-sensitive assets to
rate-sensitive liabilities within prescribed ranges at certain intervals. A
summary of the Corporation's gap analysis is summarized on page 16.
The committee does not rely solely on gap analysis to manage interest-rate risk
as interest rate changes do not impact all categories of assets and liabilities
equally or simultaneously. The asset-liability committee supplements gap
analysis with balance sheet and income simulation analysis to determine the
potential impact on net interest income of changes in market interest rates.
In these simulation models the balance sheet is projected out over a one-year
period and net interest income is calculated under current market rates, and
then assuming permanent instantaneous shifts in the yield curve of +/- 100
basis point and +/- 200 basis points. These interest-rate scenarios indicate
the interest rate risk of the Corporation over a one-year time horizon due to
changes in interest rates, as of September 30, 2001, is as follows:
Basis Point Changes

-200 -100 +100 +200
