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, 2003,  and  schedules  included in Main Street  Trust,
Inc.'s Form 10-K filed on March 12, 2004.

In the opinion of  management,  the  consolidated  financial  statements of Main
Street  Trust,  Inc.  and its  subsidiaries,  as of March  31,  2004 and for the
three-month  periods  ended  March 31, 2004 and 2003,  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  period ended March 31, 2004 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results which may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2004.

For  purposes  of the  consolidated  statements  of cash  flows,  cash  and cash

bearing deposits. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Certain  amounts  in  the  2003  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been
reclassified to conform with the 2004 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 Company was  incorporated  on August 12,  1999,  and is the parent
company of BankIllinois, The First National Bank of Decatur and FirsTech, Inc.

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.

Note 4.  Stock Option Plans

The Company has  established  a stock  incentive  plan,  which  provides for the
granting of options of the Company's common stock to certain directors, officers
and employees.  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.


                                                                  March 31,

The fair  value of the  stock  options  granted  has been  estimated  using  the
Black-Scholes  option -  pricing  model  with  the  following  weighted  average
assumptions.  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.

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.
These  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 March 31, 2004 and 2003:

                                                              March 31,

                                                    ----------------------------
Financial instruments whose contract
  amounts represent credit risk:
  Commitments                                       $ 251,729          $ 202,678
  Standby letters of credit                            18,419              8,640

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   receivable;   inventory;   property,   plant   and   equipment;   and
income-producing  commercial properties.  Also included in commitments is $3.440
million to purchase other equity securities.

Standby  letters of credit are  conditional  commitments  issued by the Banks 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 Banks 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 Banks would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential
amount of future  payments the Banks could be required to make is represented by
the contractual  amount shown in the summary above. If the commitment is funded,
the Banks would be entitled to seek  recovery  from the  customer.  At March 31,
2004 and 2003,  no amounts  have been  recorded  as  liabilities  for the Banks'
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 $28.428 million,  or 2.5%, to $1.183 billion at March 31,
2004  compared  to $1.154  billion at December  31,  2003.  Increases  in loans,
investments  in debt and  equity  securities,  mortgage  loans held for sale and
accrued  interest  receivable were partially offset by decreases in cash and due
from banks,  federal  funds sold and  interest  bearing  deposits,  premises and
equipment, and other assets.

Cash and due from banks decreased  $10.069 million,  or 21.9% to $35.830 million
at March 31, 2004  compared to $45.899  million at December 31, 2003,  primarily
due to a smaller  dollar  amount of deposit  items in process of  collection  at
March 31, 2004 compared to December 31, 2003.

Federal funds sold and interest  bearing deposits  decreased $7.832 million,  or
26.1%,  to $22.172  million at March 31,  2004  compared  to $30.004  million at
December 31, 2003.  Federal funds sold and interest bearing  deposits  fluctuate
with loan demand, deposit volume and investment opportunities.

Total  investments in debt and equity securities  increased $20.800 million,  or
5.6%,  to  $391.526  million at March 31, 2004  compared to $370.726  million at
December 31, 2003.  This overall  increase was  primarily  due to an increase in
investments in securities  held-to-maturity of $19.595 million, or 20.2%, and an
increase  in  securities   available-for-sale   of  $1.208  million,   or  0.5%.
Investments   fluctuate   with  loan  demand,   deposit  volume  and  investment
opportunities.

Loans, net of allowance for loan losses,  increased $24.983 million, or 3.7%, to
$691.242  million at March 31, 2004 from $666.259  million at December 31, 2003.
Commercial,  financial and  agricultural  loans increased  $25.766  million,  or
10.3%,  primarily as a result of the favorable rate  environment,  the Company's
emphasis on business  development and relative  improvement in the economy in
recent  months.  Real  estate  loans  increased  $1.205  million,  or  0.3%.
Installment and consumer loans decreased $1.823 million, or 2.4%,  primarily due
to competition from alternative funding sources available to consumers,  such as
special  financing  offered  by  the  auto   manufacturers'   captive  financing
companies.

Mortgage  loans held for sale increased  $1.515  million,  or 239.7%,  to $2.147
million at March 31,  2004  compared to $632,000  at  December  31,  2003.  This
increase was primarily due to a higher volume of loan originations in March 2004
compared to December 2003 as a result of a drop in interest  rates in March 2004
and the timing of subsequent sales of those loans.

Premises and equipment  decreased  $518,000,  or 2.9%,  from $17.622  million at
December 31, 2003 to $17.104  million at March 31, 2004.  The decrease  included
depreciation  and  amortization  expense of $648,000 and  proceeds  from sale of
property of  $623,000,  offset  somewhat by  purchases  of $460,000  and gain on
disposal of property of $293,000.

Total liabilities increased $25.107 million, or 2.4%, to $1.068 billion at March
31, 2004 from $1.043 billion at December 31, 2003.  Increases in total deposits,
federal  funds  purchased,  repurchase  agreements  and notes  payable,  accrued
interest  payable and other  liabilities  were somewhat  offset by a decrease in
Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings.

Total deposits increased $11.749 million,  or 1.3%, to $910.221 million at March
31, 2004 from $898.472  million at December 31, 2003.  Interest bearing deposits
increased  $13.710  million,  or 1.9%, and were somewhat offset by a decrease of
$1.961 million, or 1.2%, in non-interest bearing deposits.

Federal funds  purchased,  repurchase  agreements  and notes  payable  increased
$13.154  million,  or 12.8%,  to $116.152  million at March 31, 2004 compared to
$102.998 million at December 31, 2003. Included in this change were increases of
$11.604  million in repurchase  agreements  and $1.550  million in federal funds
purchased.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowings decreased $41,000, or 0.1%,
to $29.939 million at March 31, 2004 compared to $29.980 million at December 31,
2003.

1    Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because
     borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without
     call or prepayment  penalties and certain  securities require principal
     repayments prior to maturity.

2    Due to the nature of these  securities,  they do not have a stated maturity
     date or rate.

On March 16, 2004,  the Board of  Directors of the Company  declared a quarterly
cash dividend of $0.21 per share of the Company's  common stock. The dividend of
$2.002 million was paid on April 23, 2004 to holders of record on April 9, 2004.

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 March 31,
2004,  that the Company and its subsidiary  banks exceeded all capital  adequacy
requirements to which they are subject.

As of March 31, 2004,  the most recent  notifications  from  primary  regulatory
agencies  categorized both of 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):

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.



The following table presents the Company's  interest rate sensitivity at various
intervals at March 31, 2004:

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
                        --------------------------------------------------------

At March 31, 2004, the Company was slightly liability-sensitive in the 1-30 days
category and slightly  asset-sensitive  in the 1-90 day category.  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  $334,000  in the 1-30  days  category,  but
decrease  annualized net interest  income by  approximately  $23,000 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 March 31, 2004,
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 that permit the Company to borrow
federal funds on an unsecured basis. Additionally, the Company has a $10 million
unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank, and can borrow approximately
$54 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank on a secured basis.

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 software
performs interest rate sensitivity analysis by performing rate shocks of plus or
minus 200 basis points in 100 basis point increments.

The following table shows  projected  results at March 31, 2004 and December 31,
2003 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

March 31, 2004               13.1%           6.5%           (6.5%)       (13.1%)
December 31, 2003            11.7%           5.9%           (5.9%)       (11.7%)

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 three months of
2004.  A review of the  consolidated  statements  of cash flows  included in the
accompanying  financial  statements  shows  that  the  Company's  cash  and cash
equivalents decreased $17.901 million from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004.

In general,  funds  provided  by customer  deposits,  federal  funds  purchased,
repurchase agreements, and notes payable, and maturities,  calls and paydowns of
investment securities are used to fund loans and purchase investment securities.
Available funds are used to fund demand for loans that meet the Company's credit
quality  guidelines,  with  the  remaining  funds  used to  purchase  investment
securities and/or federal funds sold.

The  decrease  in cash and cash  equivalents  came from  cash used in  investing
offset  somewhat by cash provided by financing and operating  activities.  There
were  differences  in the sources and uses of cash during the first three months
of 2004  compared  to the  first  three  months  of 2003.  More cash was used in
investing  activities  during the first  quarter of 2004  compared  to the first
quarter of 2003.  Cash was used in the area of loans during the first quarter of
2004 compared to cash  provided by loans during the first  quarter of 2003.  Net
loans  increased  during the first three  months of 2004  compared to a decrease
during the same period in 2003.  Somewhat  offsetting this increase in cash used
in the area of loans was a net  decrease  in cash used in  investing  activities
involving the Company's investment  portfolio,  which was $20.256 million in the
first  quarter of 2004  compared  to $38.661  million  during the same period in
2003. Cash was provided by financing activities during the first three months of
2004  compared to cash used during the same period in 2003.  This was mainly due
to funds  provided by an increase in deposits  during the first three  months of
2004 compared to funds used as a result of deposits  decreasing  during the same
period in 2003.  Slightly less cash was provided by operating  activities during
the first quarter of 2004 compared to the first quarter of 2003.

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, financial and agricultural,  residential real estate and installment
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 $9.951  million at March 31, 2004 compared to $9.786 million at December 31,
2003, as net charge-offs  were $165,000 and provisions  totaled  $330,000 during
the first three months of 2004. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
gross  loans,  including  loans  held-for-sale,  was  1.41% at March  31,  2004,
compared  to  1.45%  at  December  31,  2003.   Gross  loans,   including  loans
held-for-sale,  increased  3.9% to  $703.340  million  at March  31,  2004  from
$676.677 million at December 31, 2003.

One measure of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is the ratio of the
allowance to nonperforming  loans. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage
of  nonperforming  loans  was  391.2% at March 31,  2004  compared  to 959.4% at
December 31, 2003. Nonperforming loans increased from $1.020 million at December
31, 2003 to $2.544  million at March 31, 2004.  The $1.524  million  increase in
nonperforming loans during the first three months of 2004 resulted from a $1.503
million  increase in  nonaccrual  loans and an increase of $21,000 in loans past
due 90 days or more. The increase in nonaccruals was primarily the result of the
addition of one commercial loan in the amount of $1.435 million. As of March 31,
2004, a specific valuation allowance of $300,000 had been assigned to this loan,
and the remaining balance was considered adequately  collateralized.  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.



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.

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  included  approximately
     $20,000 and $14,000 in 2004 and 2003, 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  $296,000  and  $498,000  in 2004  and  2003,
     respectively, were included in total loan income.

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%.  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.

Net interest income on a tax equivalent  basis was $594,000,  or 5.7%, lower for
the first three months of 2004 compared to 2003. Total  tax-equivalent  interest
income was $1.232 million, or 8.3%, lower in 2004 compared to 2003, and interest
expense  decreased  $638,000,  or 14.1%.  The  decrease  in both  tax-equivalent
interest  income and  interest  expense  was mainly due to lower  rates,  offset
somewhat by an increase in average balances.

The  decrease  in total  tax-equivalent  interest  income was  primarily  due to
decreases  in  interest  income  from  loans  and both  taxable  and  tax-exempt
investment  securities.  The decreases in interest income from loans and taxable
investment  securities were due to lower rates offset somewhat by higher average
balances.  The decrease in interest income from tax-exempt investment securities
was due to lower rates and lower average balances.

The decrease in total interest  expense was due to decreases in interest expense
from interest  bearing  demand and savings  deposits and time  deposits,  offset
slightly by increases in federal  funds  purchased,  repurchase  agreements  and
notes payable and FHLB advances and other  borrowings.  Interest expense on both
interest bearing demand and savings deposits and time deposits  decreased due to
lower  rates,  offset  somewhat  by an increase  in average  balances.  Interest
expense on both federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and notes payable
and FHLB advances and other borrowings increased due to higher average balances,
offset somewhat by lower rates.

The  provision  for loan losses  recorded  was  $330,000  during the first three
months of both 2004 and 2003.  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.

1    In August 2003, a new product,  Internet Agent,  was introduced for one new
     customer and, during the fourth quarter of 2003,  three existing  customers
     switched from mechanical processing to this product.  Internet Agent income
     accounted for $401,000 of total remittance  processing  income in the first
     quarter  of 2004.  This  increase  was  offset  somewhat  by  decreases  in
     mechanical  collection,  lockbox  processing and electronic payment income.
     Emphasis  has  continued  to be placed on new sales of, and  conversion  of
     existing customers to, Internet Agent processing, as it is a better product
     and  more  profitable  compared  to  mechanical,   lockbox  and  electronic
     processing.

2    The increase in trust and  brokerage  fees was mainly due to an increase in
     assets under  management  of  approximately  $166 million at March 31, 2004
     compared  to March 31,  2003 as a result of  booking  new assets and market
     appreciation.

3    The  decrease  in gains on sales of  mortgage  loans  reflected  a  $33.225
     million,  or 66.4%,  decrease in funded  mortgage loans held-for sale, from
     $50.059  million in the first  quarter  of 2003 to  $16.834  million in the
     first quarter of 2004. The volume of funded mortgage loans, which peaked in
     the third quarter of 2003,  has decreased in both of the last two quarters,
     mainly due to a decline in demand for refinancing.

4    The increase in other non-interest  income was due to a gain of $291,000 on
     the sale of two parking lots.

Income tax expense decreased $14,000,  or 0.6%, during the first three months of
2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  The  effective tax rate  increased to
35.6% during the first  quarter of 2004 from 33.8%  during the first  quarter of
2003.

Recent Regulatory Development

On March 31, 2004, Illinois Governor  Blagojevich signed an Executive Order that
would  create  a new  state  agency  called  the  Department  of  Financial  and
Professional  Regulation (the "DFPR").  As issued,  the Executive Order provides
that the DFPR would replace the Office of Banks and Real Estate,  the Department
of Financial  Institutions,  the  Department of Insurance and the  Department of
Professional  Regulation.  The DFPR would be established on July 1, 2004, unless
the Executive  Order is challenged.  At this time, it is not possible to predict
the impact  that the  creation  of the DFPR would  have on the  Company  and its
subsidiaries.

Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This document (including  information  incorporated by reference) contains,  and
future  oral and  written  statements  of the  Company  and its  management  may
contain,  forward-looking  statements,  within  the  meaning of such term in the
Private Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995, with respect to the financial
condition,  results of operations,  plans,  objectives,  future  performance and
business of the  Company.  Forward-looking  statements,  which may be based upon
beliefs,  expectations  and  assumptions  of  the  Company's  management  and on
information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the
use of  words  such as  "believe",  "expect",  "anticipate",  "plan",  "intend",
"estimate",   "may",  "will",  "would",  "could",  "should",  or  other  similar
expressions.   Additionally,   all  statements  in  this   document,   including
forward-looking  statements,  speak  only as of the date they are made,  and the
Company  undertakes  no  obligation  to  update  any  statement  in light of new
information or future events.

The Company's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or
strategies is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could have a material adverse
effect  on  the  operations  and  future   prospects  of  the  Company  and  its
subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, the following:

o    The  strength of the United  States  economy in general and the strength of
     the local economies in which the Company  conducts its operations which may
     be less  favorable  than expected and may result in, among other things,  a
     deterioration in the credit quality and value of the Company's assets.

o    The economic impact of past and any future terrorist  attacks,  acts of war
     or threats  thereof,  and the  response  of the  United  States to any such
     threats and attacks.

o    The effects of, and changes in, federal,  state and local laws, regulations
     and policies  affecting  banking,  securities,  insurance  and monetary and
     financial matters.

o    The effects of changes in interest rates  (including the effects of changes
     in the rate of prepayments of the Company's assets) and the policies of the
     Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

o    The ability of the Company to compete with other financial  institutions as
     effectively  as  the  Company   currently   intends  due  to  increases  in
     competitive pressures in the financial services sector.

o    The inability of the Company to obtain new customers and to retain existing
     customers.

o    The timely  development and acceptance of products and services,  including
     products and services offered through alternative delivery channels such as
     the Internet.

o    Technological  changes  implemented  by the Company  and by other  parties,
     including  third  party  vendors,  which  may be  more  difficult  or  more
     expensive than anticipated or which may have unforeseen consequences to the
     Company and its customers.

o    The  ability of the  Company to develop and  maintain  secure and  reliable
     electronic systems.

o    The ability of the Company to retain key  executives  and employees and the
     difficulty  that the Company may experience in replacing key executives and
     employees in an effective manner.

o    Consumer  spending  and saving  habits  which may  change in a manner  that
     affects the Company's business adversely.

o    Business  combinations and the integration of acquired businesses which may
     be more difficult orexpensive than expected.

o    The costs, effects and outcomes of existing or future litigation.

o    Changes in accounting  policies and  practices,  as may be adopted by state
     and federal  regulatory  agencies and the  Financial  Accounting  Standards
     Board.

o    The  ability  of the  Company  to  manage  the  risks  associated  with the
     foregoing as well as anticipated.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking
statements  and  undue  reliance  should  not  be  placed  on  such  statements.
Additional information concerning the Company and its business,  including other
factors  that  could  materially  affect the  Company's  financial  results,  is
included in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

         See the "Interest Rate Sensitivity" section above.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the  participation of
the  Company's  management,  including  the Chief  Executive  Officer  and Chief
Financial  Officer,  of the  effectiveness  of the design and  operation  of the
Company's  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  (as defined in Rule  13a-15(e)
promulgated  under the  Securities  and Exchange Act of 1934,  as amended) as of
March 31, 2004. Based on that evaluation,  the Company's  management,  including
the Chief  Executive  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer,  concluded that the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  There have been no
significant  changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect internal controls.
