AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements Note 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Main Street Trust, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2002, and schedules included in Main Street Trust, Inc.'s Form 10-K filed on March 21, 2003. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements of Main Street Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries, as of September 30, 2003 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of those periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2003. For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods. Certain amounts in the 2002 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2003 presentation. Such reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income or shareholders' equity. Note 2. Company Information/Business Combination Main Street Trust, Inc. (the "Company"), an Illinois corporation, is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHCA"). The Company was incorporated on August 12, 1999, and is the parent company of BankIllinois, The First National Bank of Decatur and FirsTech, Inc. The Company's two banking subsidiaries are referred to as "the Banks". On March 23, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of BankIllinois, The First National Bank of Decatur, First Trust Bank of Shelbyville and FirsTech, Inc. following the merger of BankIllinois Financial Corporation and First Decatur Bancshares, Inc. into the Company. The merger, which was accounted for as a pooling of interests, was completed on March 23, 2000. The Company subsequently merged the Company's former banking subsidiary, First Trust Bank of Shelbyville, into BankIllinois effective June 19, 2002. On June 14, 2001, the Company was certified by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a financial holding company. This designation allows the Company to engage in a wider range of nonbanking activities, including greater authority to engage in securities and insurance activities. However, the Company has no current plans to do so. The Company completed a tender offer on June 7, 2002 with 711,832 shares, representing approximately 6.3% of the total shares then outstanding, repurchased at a cost, including expenses, of $16.556 million. The Company completed a second tender offer on September 30, 2003 with 1,074,140 shares, representing approximately 10.2% of the total shares then outstanding, repurchased at a cost, including expenses, of approximately $32.395 million. 9 Note 3. Income per Share Net income per common share has been computed as follows: Nine Months Ended Three Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2003 2002 2003 2002 ----------------------------------------------------- Net Income .............................. $12,695,000 $12,932,000 $ 4,265,000 $ 4,479,000 ===================================================== Shares: Weighted average common shares outstanding ......................... 10,491,883 10,900,115 10,499,741 10,486,735 Dilutive effect of outstanding options, as determined by the application of the treasury stock method ........... 112,444 79,774 131,552 104,852 ----------------------------------------------------- Weighted average common shares outstanding, as adjusted ............ 10,604,327 10,979,889 10,631,293 10,591,587 ===================================================== Basic earnings per share ................ $ 1.21 $ 1.19 $ 0.41 $ 0.43 ===================================================== Diluted earnings per share .............. $ 1.20 $ 1.18 $ 0.40 $ 0.42 ===================================================== Note 4. Stock Option Plans The Company has four stock-based compensation plans, which have been in existence for all periods presented. As permitted under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, grants of options under the plans are accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Because options granted under the plans had an exercise price equal to market value of the underlying common stock on the grant date, no stock-based employee compensation cost is included in determining net income. The following table illustrates the effect on net income (in thousands, except per share data and earnings per share) if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation. Nine Months Ended Three Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2003 2002 2003 2002 -------------------------------------------------- Net income on common stock: As reported .................................. 12,695 12,932 4,265 4,479 Deduct total stock-based compensation expense determined under the fair value method for all awards, net of related tax effects ...........

The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions. In addition, such models require the use of subjective assumptions, including expected stock price volatility. In management's opinion, such valuation models may not necessarily provide the best single measure of option value. Nine Months Ended September 30, --------------------------- 2003 2002 --------------------------- Number of options granted .............. 129,000 158,000 Risk-free interest rate ................ 3.64% 5.20% Expected life, in years ................ 8.00 8.00 Expected volatility .................... 13.35% 10.34% Expected dividend yield ................ 2.42% 2.80% 10 Note 5. Commitments and Financial Instruments The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. Those financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Management does not anticipate any significant losses as a result of these transactions. The following table summarizes these financial instruments and commitments (in thousands) at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002: September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 ------------------------------ Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk: Commitments ................................... $207,784 $201,181 Standby letters of credit .................... 11,181 11,563 The majority of commitments are agreements to extend credit to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments, principally variable interest rates, generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. For commitments to extend credit, the Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivables; inventory; property, plant and equipment; and income-producing commercial properties. Also included in commitments at September 30, 2003 was $3.672 million to purchase other equity securities, compared to $1.750 million at December 31, 2002. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and, generally, have terms of one year or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company may hold collateral, which include accounts receivables, inventory, property and equipment, and income producing properties, supporting those commitments, if deemed necessary. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Company would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount shown in the summary above. If the commitment is funded, the Company would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. At September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, no amounts have been recorded as liabilities for the Company's potential obligations under these guarantees. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Financial Condition Assets and Liabilities Total assets increased $24.745 million, or 2.2%, to $1.147 billion at September 30, 2003 compared to $1.123 billion at December 31, 2002. Increases in all categories of investment securities, other assets and accrued interest receivable were partially offset by decreases in loans, cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits, mortgage loans held for sale and premises and equipment. 11 Cash and due from banks decreased $11.774 million, or 19.7%, to $47.970 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $59.744 million at December 31, 2002, primarily due to a smaller dollar amount of deposit items in process of collection at September 30, 2003 compared to December 31, 2002. Federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits decreased $4.196 million, or 9.8%, to $38.806 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $43.002 million at December 31, 2002. Federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits fluctuate with loan demand, deposit volume and investment opportunities. Total investments in debt and equity securities increased $54.522 million, or 17.2%, to $370.732 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $316.210 million at December 31, 2002. There were increases in all categories of investment securities as investments in securities available-for-sale increased $21.657 million, or 9.0%, investments in securities held-to-maturity increased $32.427 million, or 47.3%, and non-marketable equity securities increased $438,000, or 6.2%, at September 30, 2003 compared to December 31, 2002. Investments fluctuate with loan demand, deposit volume and other investment opportunities. Loans, net of allowance for loan losses, decreased $18.303 million, or 2.8%, to $645.839 million at September 30, 2003 from $664.142 million at December 31, 2002. Decreases in installment and consumer loans, and in real estate loans, were partially offset by an increase in commercial, financial and agricultural loans. Installment and consumer loans decreased $17.637 million, or 18.5%, due to alternative funding sources available to consumers, such as special financing offered by the auto manufacturers' captive financing companies. Real estate loans decreased $9.448 million, or 2.7%. The decrease in real estate loans included a decrease of $26.766 million in residential real estate caused by long-term fixed rate loans being refinanced and subsequently sold on the secondary market, offset somewhat by an increase of $17.318 million in commercial real estate. Commercial, financial and agricultural loans increased $9.216 million, or 3.9%. The increases in both commercial real estate and commercial, financial and agricultural loans were due to an increase in loan demand in these areas. Mortgage loans held for sale decreased $1.085 million, or 36.5%, to $1.887 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $2.972 million at December 31, 2002. This decrease was reflective of a decrease in demand at the end of September 2003 compared to December 2002. Premises and equipment decreased $755,000, or 4.1%, to $17.594 million at September 30, 2003 from $18.349 million at December 31, 2002. The decrease included depreciation expense of $1.826 million offset somewhat by purchases of $1.071 million. Other assets increased $6.202 million, or 56.4%, to $17.196 million at September 30, 2003 from $10.994 million at December 31, 2002. The increase included an investment in a low-income housing property development and a lower deferred tax asset due to the decrease in market value on securities available for sale. Total liabilities increased $49.926 million, or 5.1%, to $1.038 billion at September 30, 2003 from $988.258 million at December 31, 2002. Increases in other liabilities, federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable, and Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings were partially offset by decreases in total deposits and accrued interest payable. Total deposits decreased $6.729 million, or 0.8%, to $861.857 million at September 30, 2003 from $868.586 million at December 31, 2002. The decrease in deposits included a decrease of $12.156 million, or 7.4%, in non-interest bearing deposits offset somewhat by an increase of $5.427 million, or 0.8%, in interest bearing deposits. Federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable increased $22.059 million, or 27.4%, to $102.710 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $80.651 million at December 31, 2002. Included in this change was an increase of $22.321 million in repurchase agreements offset by decreases of $200,000 in federal funds purchased and $62,000 in notes payable. Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings increased $2.193 million, or 7.9%, to $29.999 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $27.806 million at December 31, 2002. The increase was due to borrowing to finance the investment in a low-income housing development offset partially by payments on FHLB advances. Other liabilities increased $33.050 million, or 368.7%, to $42.013 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $8.963 million at December 31, 2002 primarily due to the accrual of $32.385 million related to the purchase of stock pursuant to the tender offer. 12 Investment Securities The carrying value of investments in debt and equity securities was as follows for September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002: Carrying Value of Securities (in thousands) September 30, December 31, 2003 2002 --------------------------- Available-for-sale: U.S. Treasury .................................. $ 2,009 $ 3,066 Federal agencies ............................... 213,730 185,469 Mortgage-backed securities ..................... 26,114 30,884 State and municipal ............................ 15,678 16,168 Corporate and other obligations ................ -- 1,008 Marketable equity securities ................... 4,742 4,021 ----------------------- Total available-for-sale ................. $262,273 $240,616 ======================= Held-to-maturity: Federal agencies ............................... $ 7,415 $ 1,750 Mortgage-backed securities ..................... 53,313 23,595 State and municipal ............................ 40,262 43,218 ----------------------- Total held-to-maturity ................... $100,990 $ 68,563 ======================= Non-marketable equity securities: FHLB and FRB stock1 ............................ $ 4,190 $ 3,963 Other equity investments ....................... 3,279 3,068 ----------------------- Total .................................... $ 7,469 $ 7,031 ======================= Total investment securities .............. $370,732 $316,210 ======================= 1 FHLB and FRB are commonly used acronyms for Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank, respectively. 13 The following table shows the maturities and weighted-average yields of investment securities at September 30, 2003.

Treasury stock transactions were $30.694 million, primarily due to completion of the tender offer, offset partially by the exercise of employee stock options. Stock options exercised prior to the completion of the tender offering were fulfilled using existing treasury stock. The change in shareholders' equity is summarized as follows: Shareholders' Equity (in thousands) Shareholders' equity, December 31, 2002 ..................... $ 134,470 Net income .................................................. 12,695 Treasury stock transactions, net ............................

The dividend of $1.896 million was paid on October 24, 2003 to holders of record on October 14, 2003. On August 11, 2003, the Company commenced a tender offer to acquire up to 1,400,000 of its shares of common stock at a price of $30.00 per share. The tender offer was completed on September 30, 2003 with 1,074,140 shares, representing 10.2% of the total shares outstanding, repurchased at a cost, including expenses, of $32.395 million. The Company and its subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's and its subsidiary banks' financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, banks must meet specific guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and its subsidiary banks' capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and its subsidiary banks 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 (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of September 30, 2003, that the Company and its subsidiary banks exceeded all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. 15 As of September 30, 2003, the most recent notifications from primary regulatory agencies categorized all the Company's subsidiary banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, banks must maintain minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier I capital to risk weighted-assets, and Tier I capital to average assets ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed any of the Company's subsidiary banks' categories. The Company's and the Banks' actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table (in thousands): To Be Well For Capital Capitalized Under Adequacy Prompt Corrective Actual Purposes: Action Provisions: ---------------------------------------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio --------------------------------------------------- As of September 30, 2003: Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) Consolidated ................. $115,833 14.6% $63,398 8.0% N/A BankIllinois ................. $ 60,304 12.4% $38,920 8.0% $48,650 10.0% First National Bank of Decatur $ 35,349 12.2% $23,172 8.0% $28,965 10.0% Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets) Consolidated ................. $106,140 13.4% $31,699 4.0% N/A BankIllinois ................. $ 54,328 11.2% $19,460 4.0% $29,190 6.0% First National Bank of Decatur $ 31,726 11.0% $11,586 4.0% $17,379 6.0% Tier I capital (to average assets) Consolidated ................. $106,140 9.4% $45,334 4.0% N/A BankIllinois ................. $ 54,328 7.9% $27,629 4.0% $34,536 5.0% First National Bank of Decatur $ 31,726 7.4% $17,219 4.0% $21,523 5.0% Interest Rate Sensitivity: The concept of interest rate sensitivity attempts to gauge exposure of the Company's net interest income to adverse changes in market driven interest rates by measuring the amount of interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities maturing or subject to repricing within a specified time period. Liquidity represents the ability of the Company to meet the day-to-day demands of deposit customers balanced by its investments of these deposits. The Company must also be prepared to fulfill the needs of credit customers for loans with various types of maturities and other financing arrangements. The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity and liquidity through the use of static gap reports which measure the difference between assets and liabilities maturing or repricing within specified time periods as well as financial forecasting/budgeting/reporting software packages. 16 The following table presents the Company's interest rate sensitivity at various intervals at September 30, 2003: Rate Sensitivity of Earning Assets and Interest Bearing Liabilities (dollars in thousands) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1-30 31-90 91-180 181-365 Over Days Days Days Days 1 year Total ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Interest earning assets: Federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits ............ $ 38,806 $ -- $ -- $ -- $ -- $ 38,806 Debt and equity securities 1 ........... 18,714 33,402 23,280 62,275 233,061 370,732 Loans 2 ................................ 239,572 28,333 32,827 63,872 292,815 657,419 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total earning assets ............. $ 297,092 $ 61,735 $ 56,107 $ 126,147 $ 525,876 $1,066,957 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Interest bearing liabilities: Savings and interest bearing demand deposits ...................... $ 40,695 $ 1,502 $ 2,253 $ 4,511 $ 171,452 $ 220,413 Money market savings deposits ............................. 159,954 -- -- -- -- 159,954 Time deposits .......................... 27,277 58,157 67,097 67,618 109,594 329,743 Federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, and notes payable .................... 99,905 24 1,034 1,262 485 102,710 FHLB advances and other borrowings ..................... 7,268 10,000 115 -- 12,616 29,999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total interest bearing liabilities $ 335,099 $ 69,683 $ 70,499 $ 73,391 $ 294,147 $ 842,819 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net asset (liability) funding gap ........

Included in the 1-30 day category of savings and interest-bearing demand deposits are non-core deposits plus a percentage, based upon industry-accepted assumptions and Company analysis, of the core deposits. "Core deposits" are the lowest average balance of the prior twelve months for each product type included in this category. "Non-core deposits" are the difference between the current balance and core deposits. The time frames include a percentage, based upon industry-accepted assumptions and Company analysis, of the core deposits, as follows: 1-30 Days 31-90 Days 91-180 Days 181-365 Days Over 1 Year ----------------------------------------------------------------- Savings and interest-bearing demand deposits ............ 0.45% 0.85% 1.25% 2.45% 95.00% At September 30, 2003, the Company was liability-sensitive due to the levels of savings and interest bearing demand deposits, short-term time deposits, and short-term borrowings. As such, the effect of a decrease in the interest rate for all interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities of 100 basis points would increase annualized net interest income by approximately $380,000 in the 1-30 days category and $460,000 in the 1-90 days category assuming no management intervention. An increase in interest rates would have the opposite effect for the same time periods. The Company's Asset and Liability Management Policy states that the cumulative ratio of rate-sensitive assets ("RSA") to rate-sensitive liabilities ("RSL") for the 12-month period should fall within the range of 0.75-1.25. As of September 30, 2003, the Company's RSA/RSL was 0.99 which was within the established guidelines. In addition to managing interest rate sensitivity and liquidity through the use of gap reports, the Company has provided for emergency liquidity situations with informal agreements with correspondent banks which permit the Company to borrow federal funds on an unsecured basis. The Company has a $10 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank. Additionally, the Company can borrow approximately $51.570 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank on a secured basis. 17 The Company uses financial forecasting/budgeting/reporting software packages to perform interest rate sensitivity analysis for all product categories. The Company's primary focus of its analysis is on the effect of interest rate increases and decreases on net interest income. Management believes that this analysis reflects the potential effects on current earnings of interest rate changes. Call criteria and prepayment assumptions are taken into consideration for investments in debt and equity securities. All of the Company's financial instruments are analyzed by a software database which includes each of the different product categories which are tied to key rates such as prime, treasury bills, or the federal funds rate. The relationships of each of the different products to the key rate that the product is tied to is proportional. The software reprices the products based on current offering rates. The Company analyzes interest rate sensitivity by performing rate shocks of plus or minus 200 basis points in 100 basis point increments. The following table shows projected results at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 of the impact on net interest income from an immediate change in interest rates. The results are shown as a percentage change in net interest income over the next twelve months. Basis Point Change ------------------------------------- +200 +100 -100 -200 September 30, 2003 .................... 10.9% 5.5% (5.5%) (10.9%) December 31, 2002 ..................... 7.6% 3.8% (3.9%) (7.8%) The foregoing computations are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, prepayments and deposit mix. The computed estimates should not be relied upon as a projection of actual results. Despite the limitations on preciseness inherent in these computations, management believes that the information provided is reasonably indicative of the effect of changes in interest rate levels on the net earning capacity of the company's current mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Management continues to use the results of these computations, along with the results of its computer model projections, in order to enhance earnings potential while positioning the company to minimize the effect of a prolonged shift in interest rates that would adversely affect future results of operations. At the present time, the most significant market risk affecting the Company is interest rate risk. Other market risks such as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk do not occur in the normal business of the Company. The Company also is not currently using trading activities or derivative instruments to control interest rate risk. Liquidity and Cash Flows The Company was able to meet liquidity needs during the first nine months of 2003. A review of consolidated statements of cash flows included in the accompanying financial statements shows that the Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased $15.970 million from December 31, 2002 to September 30, 2003. This decrease came from cash used in investing activities offset somewhat by cash provided by financing and operating activities. 18 There were differences in the sources and uses of cash during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. Cash was used in investing activities during 2003 compared to cash provided by investing activities during 2002. During the first nine months of 2003, net cash used in investing activities involving the Company's investment portfolio was $58.433 million compared to cash provided during the first nine months of 2002 of $16.015 million. During the first nine months of 2003, the Company's investment portfolio grew versus the first nine months of 2002 when the Company's investment portfolio was reduced. The size of the Company's investment portfolio varies in response to volume of loans and deposits as well as investment opportunities. Somewhat offsetting this difference was cash provided by loans during the first nine months of 2003 due to a decrease in loans, compared to cash used by loans during the same period of 2002 when loans increased slightly. Somewhat offsetting this change was cash provided by financing activities during the first nine months of 2003 compared to cash used during the first nine months of 2002. This was mainly due to changes in federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable, net MSTI stock transactions, deposits and FHLB advances and other borrowings. Cash was provided by an increase in federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable during the first nine months of 2003 compared to cash used during the same period in 2002, mainly due to a change in volume of repurchase agreements. Cash was provided from net MSTI stock transactions during the first nine months of 2003 compared to cash used during the same period of 2002 due to completion of the tender offer during the second quarter of 2002. There was a larger decrease in deposits during the first nine months of 2002 compared to the same period of 2003. The decrease in 2002 included the maturity of a large short-term time deposit. Also, cash was provided by an increase in FHLB advances and other borrowings during the first nine months of 2003 compared to cash used because of a decrease during the first nine months of 2002. Less cash was provided by operating activities during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period of 2002 due, in part, to an increase in other assets. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company believes that it has one critical accounting policy, allowance for loan losses, that is subject to estimates and judgements used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses The provision for loan losses is based on management's evaluation of the loan portfolio in light of national and local economic conditions, changes in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio, changes in the volume of past due and nonaccrual loans, and other relevant factors. The allowance for loan losses, which is reported as a deduction from loans, is available for loan charge-offs. The allowance is increased by the provision charged to expense and is reduced by loan charge-offs net of loan recoveries. The allowance is allocated between the commercial, residential real estate and consumer loan portfolios according to the historical losses experienced in each of these portfolios as well as the current level of watch list loans and nonperforming loans for each portfolio. Loans for which borrower cash flow and the estimated liquidation value of collateral are inadequate to repay the total outstanding balance are evaluated separately and assigned a specific allocation. The unallocated portion of the allowance is determined by economic conditions and other factors mentioned above. The balance of the allowance for loan losses was $9.693 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $9.259 million at December 31, 2002, as net charge-offs were $556,000 and provisions totaled $990,000 during the first nine months of 2003. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans, including loans held-for-sale, was 1.47% at September 30, 2003, compared to 1.37% at December 31, 2002. Gross loans, including loans held-for-sale, decreased 2.8% to $657.419 million at September 30, 2003 from $676.373 million at December 31, 2002. 19 The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 383.1% at September 30, 2003 compared to 416.9% at December 31, 2002. Nonperforming loans increased from $2.221 million at December 31, 2002 to $2.530 million at September 30, 2003. The $309,000 increase in nonperforming loans during the first nine months of 2003 resulted from a $461,000 increase in loans past due 90 days or more, offset somewhat by a $152,000 decrease in nonaccrual loans. Management believes that nonperforming and potential problem loans are appropriately identified and monitored based on the extensive loan analysis performed by the credit administration department, the internal loan committees and the board of directors. Historically, there have not been a significant amount of loans charged off which had not been previously identified as problem loans by the credit administration department or the loan committees. While the economy has shown recent strength, we are still concerned about the weakness in the labor market. Many economists believe that the sustainability of the current economic expansion is dependent upon a resurgence in new job creation. Any improvement in our levels of problem assets, delinquencies and losses on loans is similarly dependent upon a recovery in employment levels to materialize. Due to increases in several leading economic indicators (including the stock market, temporary worker hiring and ISM survey data), we are cautiously optimistic that the employment picture will brighten. However, it is still too early to consider robust jobs growth a certainty. The following table summarizes changes in the allowance for loan losses by loan categories for each period and additions to the allowance for loan losses which have been charged to operations.

Basic earnings per share increased $0.02, or 1.7%, to $1.21 per share in the first nine months of 2003 from $1.19 per share in the same period in 2002. Diluted earnings per share increased $0.02, or 1.7%, to $1.20 per share in the first nine months of 2003 from $1.18 per share in the first nine months of 2002. The increase in basic and diluted earnings per share was mainly due to a decrease in weighted average shares outstanding after the completion of the tender offer for 6.3% of the Company's outstanding common stock near the end of the second quarter of 2002. This was offset somewhat by other treasury stock transactions. 21 The following schedule "Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rates" provides details of average balances, interest income or interest expense, and the average rates for the Company's major asset and liability categories.

Notes to Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Table: 1 Investments in debt securities are included at carrying value. 2 Federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits include approximately $47,000 and $49,000 in 2003 and 2002, respectively, of interest income from third party processing of cashier checks. 3 Loans are net of allowance for loan losses and include mortgage loans held for sale. Nonaccrual loans are included in the total. 4 Loan fees of approximately $1.368 million and $742,000 in 2003 and 2002, respectively, are included in total loan income. 22 Net interest income, the most significant component of the Company's earnings, is the difference between interest received or accrued on the Company's earning assets - primarily loans and investments - and interest paid or accrued on deposits and borrowings. In order to compare the interest generated from different types of earning assets, the interest income on certain tax-exempt investment securities and loans is increased for analysis purposes to reflect the income tax savings provided by these tax-exempt assets. The adjustment to interest income for tax-exempt investment securities and loans was calculated based on the federal income tax statutory rate of 35% at September 30, 2003 and 2002. The following table presents, on a tax equivalent (TE) basis, an analysis of changes in net interest income resulting from changes in average volumes of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and average rates earned and paid. The change in interest due to the combined rate/volume variance has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

Total tax-equivalent interest income was $5.852 million, or 11.9%, lower in 2003 compared to 2002, and interest expense decreased $3.956 million, or 23.6%. The decrease in tax-equivalent interest income was due to lower rates, offset slightly by an increase in average balances. The decrease in interest expense was due to lower rates. The decrease in total tax-equivalent interest income was due to a decrease in interest income from loans, taxable investment securities and tax-exempt investment securities, offset slightly by an increase in interest income from federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits. The decrease in interest income from loans was due to lower rates and lower average balances. The decrease in interest income from taxable investment securities and tax-exempt investment securities was due to lower rates, offset somewhat by an increase in average balances. The slight increase in interest income from federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits was due to higher average balances offset somewhat by lower interest rates. The decrease in total interest expense was due to decreases in interest expense from all categories of interest bearing liabilities. Interest expense on interest bearing demand and savings deposits decreased primarily due to lower rates, offset slightly by an increase in average volume. Interest expense on time deposits and FHLB advances and other borrowings decreased due to lower rates and lower average balances. Interest expense on federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable decreased due to lower rates, offset somewhat by an increase in average balances. The provision for loan losses recorded was $990,000 during the first nine months of both 2003 and 2002. The provision during both periods was based on management's analysis of the loan portfolio, as discussed in the provision for loan losses section above. 23 Total non-interest income increased $1.033 million, or 7.3%, during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. Included in this increase was an increase of $1.441 million, or 186.4%, in gains on sales of mortgage loans held-for-sale during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This increase reflected a $108.380 million, or 135.7%, increase in funded mortgage loans held-for-sale during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. This increase was reflective of lower mortgage interest rates during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. While mortgage rates remain at historically low levels, this level of mortgage sales gains may not continue throughout the rest of the year. Other non-interest income increased $363,000, or 29.9%, in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. During the first nine months of 2002, other non-interest income included a write-down of approximately $300,000 in the value of mortgage servicing rights as a result of the sharp rise in prepayment speeds. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $144,000, or 8.2%, during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Somewhat offsetting these increases was a decrease in trust and brokerage fees of $395,000, or 8.5%, in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. This decrease was due, in part, to lower market values of assets upon which fees were charged during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Income from securities transactions decreased $277,000, or 121.5%, in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This decrease included recognition of loss on a non-marketable equity security, offset somewhat by a gain on the sale of one available-for-sale government agency security. Remittance processing income decreased $243,000, or 4.4%, in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This was due to a reduction of volume at the Company's remittance processing subsidiary, FirsTech, associated with a gradual volume reduction in electronic payments processed for a large telecommunications company since 2002 as a result of their conversion to an internal processing platform. This was offset somewhat by additional revenue produced by the conversion of new clients to FirsTech's agent payment processing platform and the renegotiation of some existing contracts. Total non-interest expense decreased $814,000, or 3.2%, during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period of 2002. Of this decrease, salaries and employee benefits decreased $514,000, or 3.6%, during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. Contributing to salaries and employee benefits in the first nine months of 2002 was $529,000 in salaries and benefits related to organizational restructuring that resulted in termination of employment contracts. Equipment expense decreased $282,000, or 13.6%, during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Equipment expense decreased largely due to efficiencies gained from restructuring and the merger of BankIllinois and First Trust Bank of Shelbyville in June 2002. Data processing expense decreased $169,000, or 9.8%, in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. Contributing to data processing expense in the first nine months of 2002 were conversion to a new system and software upgrade at the Company's remittance processing subsidiary FirsTech, and costs to merge First Trust Bank of Shelbyville and BankIllinois computer records. Service charges from correspondent banks decreased $11,000, or 1.6%, in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Somewhat offsetting these decreases were increases of $88,000, or 5.0%, in occupancy expense, $71,000, or 2.0%, in other non-interest expense and $3,000, or 0.3%, in office supplies expense in the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Income tax expense increased $222,000, or 3.5%, during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the first nine months of 2002. The effective tax rate increased to 34.0% during the first nine months of 2003 from 32.8% during the first nine months of 2002. Results of Operations For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 Net income for the third quarter of 2003 was $4.265 million, a $214,000, or 4.8%, decrease from $4.479 million for the same period in 2002. Basic earnings per share decreased $0.02, or 4.7%, to $0.41 per share in the third quarter of 2003 compared to $0.43 per share in the third quarter of 2002. Diluted earnings per share decreased $0.02, or 4.8%, to $0.40 per share in the third quarter of 2003 compared to $0.42 per share in the third quarter of 2002. 24 The following schedule "Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rates" provides details of average balances, interest income or interest expense, and the average rates for the Company's major asset and liability categories.

Notes to Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Tables: 1 Investments in debt securities are included at carrying value. 2 Federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits include approximately $17,000 and $16,000 in 2003 and 2002, respectively, of interest income from third party processing of cashier checks. 3 Loans are net of allowance for loan losses. Nonaccrual loans are included in the total. 4 Loan fees of approximately $437,000 and $250,000 in 2003 and 2002, respectively, are included in total loan income. 25 The following table presents, on a tax equivalent basis, an analysis of changes in net interest income resulting from changes in average volumes of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and average rates earned and paid. The change in interest due to the combined rate/volume variance has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

Total tax-equivalent interest income was $2.207 million, or 13.6%, lower in 2003 compared to 2002, and interest expense decreased $1.391 million, or 25.8%. The decrease in interest income and interest expense was due primarily to a decrease in rates offset somewhat by an increase in average balances. The decrease in total interest income was due to decreases in interest income from loans and both taxable and tax-exempt investment securities. These decreases were offset slightly by an increase in interest income from federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits. The decreases in interest income from loans and tax-exempt investment securities were due to decreases in rates and average balances during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The decrease in interest income from taxable investment securities was due to a decrease in rates, offset somewhat by an increase in average balances during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. The increase in federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits was due to an increase in average balances, offset somewhat by a decrease in rates. The decrease in total interest expense was due to decreases in interest expense on all categories of interest bearing liabilities, with the exception of federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable, which recorded no change in interest expense in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The decreases in interest expense on time deposits and on FHLB advances and other borrowings were due to decreases in rates and average balances during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The decrease in interest expense from interest bearing demand and savings deposits was due to a decrease in rates, offset somewhat by an increase in average balances during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. The provision for loan losses recorded was $330,000 during both the third quarter of 2003 and 2002. The provision during both periods was based on management's analysis of the loan portfolio, as discussed in the provision and allowance for loan losses section above. 26 Total non-interest income increased $782,000, or 16.9%, during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. Included in this increase was an increase of $594,000, or 157.1%, in gains on sales of mortgage loans held-for-sale in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This increase reflected a $38.307 million, or 111.2%, increase in funded mortgage loans held-for-sale in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. This increase was reflective of lower mortgage interest rates during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. While mortgage rates remain at historically low levels, this level of mortgage sales gains may not continue throughout the rest of the year. Other non-interest income increased $341,000, or 172.2%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. In the third quarter of 2002, other non-interest income included a write down of approximately $300,000 in the value of mortgage servicing rights as a result of the sharp rise in prepayment speeds. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $54,000, or 8.8%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. Income from remittance processing increased $45,000, or 2.5%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same quarter in 2002. This was due to a combination of the conversion of new clients to FirsTech's agent payment processing platform and the renegotiation of some existing contracts that produced additional revenue. Securities transactions generated a net loss of $6,000 during the third quarter of 2003 compared to a net loss of $62,000 in the third quarter of 2002. Somewhat offsetting these increases was a decrease in trust and brokerage fees of $308,000, or 17.7%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same quarter in 2002. This was due, in part, to lower market values of assets upon which fees were charged during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Total non-interest expense increased $159,000, or 2.0%, during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Of this increase, other non-interest expense increased $127,000, or 10.7%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. Of this increase, $45,000 was attributable to marketing and charitable contributions. Expenses in this category vary based on the timing of advertising and promotions. Salaries and employee benefits increased $94,000, or 2.1%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002 primarily due to the increase in volume of mortgage loans held for sale during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Also contributing to the overall increase in non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 were increases of $43,000, or 7.2%, in occupancy expense, $11,000, or 2.2% in data processing expense, $9,000 or 2.8%, in office supplies expense and $7,000, or 3.1%, in service charges from correspondent banks. Somewhat offsetting these increases was a decrease of equipment expense of $132,000, or 18.7%, in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. Equipment expense decreased largely due to efficiencies gained from restructuring, and the merger of BankIllinois and First Trust Bank of Shelbyville in June of 2002. Income tax expense increased $43,000, or 1.9%, during the third quarter of 2003 compared to the third quarter of 2002. The effective tax rate increased to 34.6% during the third quarter of 2003 from 33.0% during the same period in 2002. Business Segment Information The Company currently operates in two industry segments. The primary business involves providing banking services to central Illinois. The Banks offer a full range of financial services to business and individual customers. These services include demand, savings, time and individual retirement accounts; commercial, consumer (including automobile loans and personal lines of credit), agricultural, and real estate lending; safe deposit and night depository services; farm management; full service trust departments that offer a wide range of services such as investment management, acting as trustee, serving as guardian, executor or agent and miscellaneous consulting; discount brokerage services and purchases of installment obligations from retailers, primarily without recourse. The other industry segment involves retail payment processing. FirsTech provides the following services to electric, water and gas utilities, telecommunication companies, cable television firms and charitable organizations: retail lockbox processing of payments delivered by mail on behalf of the biller; processing of payments delivered by customers to pay agents such as grocery stores, convenience stores and currency exchanges; and concentration of payments delivered by the Automated Clearing House network, money management software such as Quicken and through networks such as Visa e-Pay and MasterCard RPS. 27 Company information is provided for informational purposes only, since it is not considered a separate segment for reporting purposes. Effective January 1, 2003, certain administrative, audit, compliance, accounting, finance, property management, human resources, courier, information systems and other support services previously included in the budgets of the Banks were moved to the Company.
