BUSINESS Overview The Registrant, Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), was organized as a Michigan corporation in March 1982 for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company by acquiring all of the outstanding shares of Southern Michigan National Bank, which it did in November of 1982. The Company's business currently consists of wholly owning and operating Southern Michigan Bank & Trust (the "Bank"), a general commercial bank with its main office located at 51 West Pearl Street, Coldwater, Michigan 49036. The Bank is a Michigan banking corporation and a successor, by conversion of charter effective December 15, 1992, to Southern Michigan National Bank. The Bank operates twelve (12) branch offices in the primarily rural areas of Branch, Hillsdale, and Calhoun counties in southwestern Michigan. Banking Services The Bank offers a full range of banking services to individuals, businesses, governmental entities and other institutions. These services include checking, savings, and NOW accounts, time deposits, safe deposit facilities, and money transfers. The Bank's lending operations provide secured and unsecured commercial and personal loans, real estate loans, consumer installment loans, lines of credit and accounts receivable financing. The Bank's Trust Department offers a wide variety of fiduciary services to individuals, businesses, not-for-profit organizations and governmental entities, including services as trustee for personal, corporate, pension, profit sharing, and other employee benefit trusts. The Bank also provides security custodial services as an agent, acts as the personal representative for estates and as a fiscal, paying and escrow agent for corporate customers and governmental entities. The Bank also offers securities brokerage services through an unaffiliated broker. The Bank maintains correspondent banking relationships with several other larger banks, which involve check clearing operations, transfer of funds, loan participations, and the purchase and sale of federal funds and other similar services. Competition The banking business in the Bank's market area is highly competitive. The Bank competes with other banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions and finance companies. Banks and other financial institutions from surrounding areas maintain branches within the Bank's service area and offer additional competition. The Bank is also faced with increasing competition from non-depository financial intermediaries, such as large retailers, investment banks and securities brokerage firms. 2 3 Supervision and Regulation General Various federal and state banking laws and regulations affect the business of the Company and the Bank. They are subject to supervision, regulation, and periodic examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "FRB") and the Financial Institutions Bureau of the State of Michigan (the "FIB") and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), respectively. The following is a summary of certain statutes and regulations affecting the Company and the Bank. This summary is qualified in its entirety by such statutes and regulations, which are subject to change based on pending and future legislation and action by regulatory agencies. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the operation of banks and companies which control banks and other financial institutions are frequently raised in Congress. The likelihood of any major legislation and the impact such legislation might have on the Company or the Bank are, however, impossible to predict. The Bank Holding Company Act/Reigle-Neal Act As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to regulation by the FRB under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHCA"). The BHCA restricts the product range of a bank holding company by circumscribing the types of businesses it may own or acquire. The BHCA limits a bank holding company to owning and managing banks or companies engaged in activities determined by the FRB to be closely related to banking. The BHCA requires a bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the FRB before acquiring substantially all of the assets of a bank or a bank holding company or direct or indirect ownership or control of more than five percent of the voting shares of a bank or a bank holding company. Prior to September 29, 1995, the BHCA prohibited a bank holding company from acquiring shares of any bank located outside the state in which the operations of the bank holding company's banking subsidiaries were primarily conducted unless the acquisition was specifically authorized by statute of the state of the bank whose shares were to be acquired. Under the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Riegle-Neal Act"), the restriction on interstate bank acquisitions was repealed effective September 29, 1995. The Federal Reserve Board is now generally authorized to approve bank acquisitions by out-of-state bank holding companies that are adequately capitalized and managed whether or not such acquisition is prohibited by law of the host state. The Riegle-Neal Act permits States to require that a target bank have been in operation for a minimum period, up to five years, and to impose nondiscriminatory limits on the percentage of the total amount of deposits with insured depository institutions in the State which may be controlled by a single bank or bank holding company. In addition, the Riegle-Neal Act imposes Federal deposit concentration limits (10% of nationwide total deposits, and 30% of total deposits in the host State on applications subsequent to the applicant's initial entry to the host State), and adds new statutory conditions to Federal Reserve Board approval, i.e., the applicant meets or exceeds all applicable Federal regulatory capital standards and is "adequately managed". Also effective September 29 , 1995, any bank subsidiary (and, in certain circumstances thrift subsidiary) of a bank holding company may receive deposits to existing accounts, renew time deposits, and close service and receive payments on (but not disburse proceeds of) loans, as an agent for its depository institution affiliates without being considered a branch of the affiliate under any otherwise applicable law. Such agency activities must be conducted on terms consistent with safe and sound banking practices. The Riegle-Neal Act also authorizes, effective June 1, 1997, the responsible Federal banking agency to approve applications for the interstate acquisition of branches or mergers of depository institutions across State lines without regard to whether such activity is contrary to State law. Any State may, however, by adoption of a nondiscriminatory law after September 29, 1994 and before June 1, 1997, may elect to "opt-in" or "opt-out" of the provision. The State of Michigan has "opted-in" to the Riegle-Neal Act's interstate branching provision. The effect of "opting out" is to prevent banks chartered by, or having their main office located in, such State from participating in any interstate branch acquisition or merger. Each State is permitted to prohibit interstate branch acquisitions (i.e., acquisition of a branch without acquisition of the entire target bank), to examine acquired or de novo branches of out-of-state 3 4 banks with respect to compliance with certain host State laws, and to retain a minimum age requirement of up to five years, a nondiscriminatory deposit cap, and nondiscriminatory notice or filing requirements. The responsible Federal agency will apply the same Federal concentration limits and capital and management adequacy requirements noted above with respect to BHCA applications. Branches acquired in a host State by a State-chartered bank will be subject to the activity limits and other laws of the host State to the same extent as a branch of a bank chartered by the host State. Branches acquired in a host State by an out-of-State national bank will be subject to community reinvestment, consumer protection, fair lending and interstate branching laws of the host State (except to the extent the application of such laws to national banks is preempted by Federal law or is determined by the Comptroller of the Currency to be discriminatory), and to other nontax laws of the host State to the same extent as branches of a national bank having its main office in the host State. The establishment of de novo branches by an out-of-State bank will continue to require express statutory authority under the law of the host State and of the chartering jurisdiction. Among other things, the Riegle-Neal Act also preserves State taxation authority, prohibits the operation by out-of-State banks of interstate branches as deposit production offices, imposes additional notice requirements upon interstate banks proposing to close branch offices in a low or moderate-income area, and creates new Community Reinvestment Act evaluation requirements for interstate depository institutions. The Act mandates new restrictions on interstate activities of foreign banks, and requires public notice of, and opportunity to comment on, proposed ruling by a Federal banking agency which would preempt certain State laws. Dividend Restrictions The Company's principal source of income consists of dividends paid by the Bank on its Common Stock (all of which is owned by the Company). Michigan law restricts the Bank's ability to pay these dividends. Under the Michigan Banking Code of 1969, as amended, no dividend may be declared by the Bank in an amount greater than net profits then on hand after deducting losses and bad debts. After payment of a dividend, the Bank must have a Surplus amounting to not less than 20% of its capital. In addition, if the surplus of the Bank is less than the amount of its capital, before a dividend may be declared, the Bank must transfer to surplus not less than 10% of the net profits of the Bank for the preceding half year in the case of quarterly or semiannual dividends or not less than 10% of its net profits for the preceding two consecutive half year periods in the case of annual dividends. The term "net profits" means the remainder of all earnings from current operations plus actual recoveries on loans, investments and other assets, after deducting from the total thereof all current operating expenses, actual losses, accrued dividends on preferred stock, if any, and all federal and state taxes. As of December 31, 1998, the amount of dividends the Bank could pay to the Company without prior regulatory approval was $1,410,000. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA"), no insured depository institution may declare any dividend if, following the payment of such dividend, the institution would be under capitalized (see "Capital Requirements"). These regulations and restrictions may limit the Company's ability to obtain funds from its subsidiary for its cash needs, including funds for acquisitions, payments of dividends and interest and the payment of operating expenses. Transactions with Affiliates and Insiders The Bank and the Company are affiliates of each other and, as such, are subject to certain federal restrictions on loans and extensions of credit to the Company, and other affiliates on investments in the Company's and its affiliates' securities, on acceptance of such securities as collateral for loans to any borrowers and on leases and services and other contracts between the Bank and the Company. Additionally, regulations allow a bank to extend credit to the bank's and its affiliates' executive officers, directors and principal shareholders or their related interest only if the loan is made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-insiders, and if credit underwriting standards are followed that are no less stringent than those applicable to comparable transactions with non-insiders. Moreover, loans to insiders must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features and must in certain circumstances be approved in advance by a majority of the entire board of directors of the Bank. The aggregate amount that can be lent to all insiders is limited to the Bank's unimpaired capital and surplus. 4 5 Deposit Insurance Deposits held by the Bank are insured, to the extent permitted by law, by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") administered by the FDIC. A minimum designated reserve ratio of 1.25 percent of insured deposits has been established for the BIF. However, the FDIC may set a higher designated reserve ratio if circumstances raise a significant risk of substantial future losses to the BIF. Assessment rates are established sufficient to maintain reserves at the designated reserve ratio or, if the ratio is less than the designated ratio, to increase the ratio to the designated ratio within a reasonable period of time. The FDIC began collecting FDIC assessments on a quarterly basis in 1995. As required under FDICIA, the FDIC has established a system of risk-based deposit insurance premiums. Under this system each insured institution's assessment is based on the probability that the BIF will incur a loss related to that institution, the likely amount of the loss, and the revenue needs of the BIF. Under the risk-based assessment system and effective January 1, 1997, a depository institution pays an assessment of between 0 cents and 27 cents per $100 of insured deposits based on its capital level and risk classification. To arrive at a risk based assessment for an insured institution, the FDIC places it in one of nine risk categories using a two step analysis based first on capital ratios and then on other relevant supervisory information. For 1996, a $2,000 minimum deposit insurance assessment was imposed on the most highly rated banks. Pursuant to the Deposit Insurance Funds Act, enacted by Congress in September 1996, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on bank deposits at a rate not tied to risk classification in order to service debt on the Financing Corporation (FICO) bonds issued in connection with the federal government's bail out of the thrift industry. Any significant changes in the deposit insurance assessment rate or FICO bond servicing imposed by the FDIC could have a material effect on the earnings of the Company. Capital Requirements The FRB has imposed risk-based capital guidelines applicable to the Company. These guidelines require that bank holding companies maintain capital commensurate with both on and off balance sheet credit and other risks of their operations. Under the guidelines, a bank holding company must have a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets ("Total Capital") of 8.0 percent. At least half of Total Capital must be composed of common shareholder's equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority interest in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets ("Tier I Capital"). At December 31, 1998, the Company's Total Capital to risk-weighted assets was 13.7 percent, which is above the regulatory minimum requirements. In addition to risk-based capital requirements, the FRB has also imposed leverage capital ratio requirements. The leverage ratio requirements establish a minimum required ratio of Tier I Capital to total assets less goodwill of 3 percent for the bank holding companies having the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding companies are required to maintain a minimum Tier I capital yielding a leverage ratio of 4 percent to 5 percent, depending on the particular circumstances and risk profile of the institution. The Company's Tier I Capital leverage ratio at December 31, 1998 was 9.4 percent. The Bank is also subject to risk-weighted capital standards and leverage measures which are similar, but in some cases not identical , to the requirements for bank holding companies which apply to the Company. At December 31, 1998, the Bank met all applicable capital requirements. Under FDICIA, the Federal bank regulators must take various specified prompt corrective actions based on levels of an insured depository institution's capital that are below the adequately capitalized level. These prescribed actions increase restrictions on the institution as its capital declines. 5 6 Monetary Policy and Economic Conditions The business of commercial banks, such as the Bank, is affected by monetary and fiscal policies of various regulatory agencies, including the FRB. Among the regulatory techniques available to the FRB are open market operations in United States Government securities, changing the discount rate for member bank borrowings, and imposing and changing the reserve requirement applicable to member bank deposits and to certain borrowings by member banks and their affiliates (including parent companies). These policies influence to a significant extent the overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits and the interest rates charged on loans, as well as the interest rates paid on savings and time deposits. The monetary policies of the FRB have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. In view of constantly changing conditions in the national economy and the money market, as well as the effect of acts by the monetary and fiscal authorities, including the FRB, no definitive predictions can be made by the Company or the Bank as to future changes in interest rates, credit availability, deposit levels, or the effect of any such changes on the Company's or the Bank's operations and financial condition. Employees As of December 31, 1998, 139 persons were employed by the Bank; 118 were full time employees and 21 were part time employees. 6 7 Selected Statistical Information The following tables describe certain aspects of the Company's business in statistical form.

(A) Amounts include demand loans, loans having no stated schedule of repayments, or no stated maturity and overdrafts. 11 12 Non-Performing Loans Non performing loans include impaired loans, nonaccrual loans and accruing loans past due 90 days or more. The following table sets forth the aggregate amount of non-performing loans in each of the following categories:

The accrual of interest income generally is discontinued when a loan becomes over 90 days past due as to principal or interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest credited to income in the current year and accrued interest from the prior year is reversed. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when: (1) the estimated net realizable value of collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest and; (2) the loan is in the process of collection. Interest of $19,000 and $73,000 was realized on nonaccrual loans during 1998 and 1997, respectively. Under original terms for these loans, interest income which would have been recorded approximates $91,000 and $137,000 in 1998 and 1997, respectively. There are no loan commitments outstanding to extend credit to these customers. 12 13 Potential Problem Loans At December 31, 1998, the Company had approximately $3,931,000 in commercial, financial, and agricultural loans for which payments are presently current, but the borrowers are experiencing certain financial and/or operational difficulties. These loans are subject to frequent management review and their classification is reviewed on a monthly basis. All loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention have been included in the above disclosures. SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE The following table sets forth changes in the allowance for loan losses:

13 14 The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which, in management's opinion, is adequate to absorb possible loan losses in the loan portfolio. In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, management reviews the characteristics of the loan portfolio in order to determine overall quality and risk profits. Some factors considered by management in determining the level at which the allowance is maintained include a continuing evaluation of those loans identified as being subject to possible problems in collection, results of examination by regulatory agencies, current economic conditions, and historical loan loss experience. The 1996 and 1995 provisions increased from 1994 levels to provide for loan growth. The 1997 provision was increased to provide for loan growth and the increase in charge-offs and delinquencies. Several customers, including a large commercial borrower, declared bankruptcy during 1997 resulting in increased charge-offs. The 1998 provision increased to provide for increased charge-offs and delinquencies, primarily as a result of increased customer bankruptcies. 14 15 Allocation of the Allowance for Loan Losses The Securities and Exchange Commission's guide to the presentation of statistical information provides for a break down of the allowance for loan losses into major loan categories. The Company allocates the allowance among the various categories through an analysis of the loan portfolio composition, prior loan loss experience, evaluation of those loans identified as being probable problems in collection, results of examination by regulatory agencies and current economic conditions. The entire allowance is available to absorb any losses without regard to the category or categories in which the charged off loans are classified. Even though such an allocation has inherent limitations, the Company has compiled the results of its various reviews and has made estimates of the risks which might be allocated to the respective loan categories. The following table sets forth the allocation of the allowance for loan losses:

(1) The amounts shown includes amounts deferred under the 401(k) provisions of the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") and the Bank's Executives' Deferred Compensation Plan ("Deferred Compensation Plan"). (2) The amounts shown include the following for 1998: (i) employer contributions to accounts in the ESOP and the Deferred Compensation Plan of $2,500 and $3,000, respectively for Mr. Towns; and $3,994 and $3,000 respectively for Mr. Grohalski; (ii) $378 and $406 constituting the value of insurance premiums paid by the Bank for term life insurance for Mr. Towns' and Mr. Grohalski's benefit, respectively. Retirement Benefits Officers of the Registrant participate in the Southern Michigan Bank & Trust Retirement Plan (the "Retirement Plan"), which has been adopted by the Registrant. Under the terms of the Retirement Plan, a normal monthly retirement benefit is provided to covered employees who attain the age of 65. It provides for a normal retirement benefit after 30 years of credited service equal to 35% of a participant's actual monthly compensation based on the participant's highest consecutive five year average compensation (see column captioned "Remuneration"). For participants with less than 30 years credited service, reduced benefits are available in an amount equal to the normal retirement benefit reduced by 1/30 for each year of service less than 30. Participants are 100% vested after five years of credited service, and are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment with credited service less than five years. The following table represents estimated normal annual benefits payable on a straight-life annuity basis upon retirement at age 65 and are not subject to deduction for social security benefits: 20 21 PENSION PLAN TABLE
YEARS OF SERVICE - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REMUNERATION 25 30 35 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 110,000 $32,100 $38,500 $38,500 120,000 35,000 42,000 42,000 130,000 37,900 45,500 45,500 140,000 40,800 49,000 49,000 150,000 43,750 52,500 52,500 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jerry L. Towns has 27 years of credited service and $139,000 current covered remuneration. James T. Grohalski has 32 years of credited service and $125,000 current covered remuneration. The Bank also has in effect supplemental retirement arrangements in the form of Executive Employee Salary Continuation Agreements with its executive officers under which a specified annual benefit, in addition to that provided under the Retirement Plan, is payable to the officer upon retirement at age 65, subject to reduction for credited service of less than 30 years on the same basis as under the Retirement Plan. The specified benefit under the salary continuation agreements is also payable beginning at age 65, if the officer is terminated or has his title, responsibility or compensation significantly lessened or the situs of his employment is changed without his consent. The specified annual benefit, when added to the benefit under the Retirement Plan, is intended to be approximately equal to the benefit the officer would have received under the Retirement Plan but for a plan amendment which changed the Plan's benefit formula to comply with changes in pension laws and which substantially reduced the executive officers' benefits. For Jerry L. Towns, the specified annual benefits payable upon retirement at age 65 under the supplemental retirement arrangement is $16,860. For James T. Grohalski, the specified annual benefit payable upon retirement at age 65 under the supplemental retirement arrangement is $22,060. The Bank also has a Deferred Compensation Plan for directors and certain executive officers. Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, participants elect to defer a portion of their compensation (in the case of directors, their fees) on a pretax basis. Upon retirement at or after age 65, the participant or his designated beneficiary is entitled to a benefit equal to the amount of the participant's deferrals to the Plan plus earnings on such deferrals at a specified rate of interest compounded annually, payable in equal monthly amounts for not less than 180 months. Upon the participant's termination of employment or retirement before age 65, the benefit payable to the participant at age 65 is determined by multiplying the amount deferred under the Plan by the ratio of the number of months for which the participant made deferrals to the number of months from the time the participant began making deferrals to the participant's reaching age 65. The amounts shown in the summary compensation table above include amounts deferred as contributions under the Plan, which amounts are subject to forfeiture pursuant to the formula described above for determining the applicable benefit in the event the participant's employment terminates before retirement at age 65. Directors' Fees Currently, each director of the Bank whose principal occupation is not with the Bank, receives an annual fee of $6,108, which will be indexed for inflation in 1999. In addition, outside directors are compensated $150 for each Committee meeting attended and participate in a bonus program based upon the achievement of growth and profitability goals. The 1998 bonus paid to each outside director was $1,595. 21 22 ITEM 12.

Jerry L. Towns, chairman and CEO, retired 26 years with SMB&T, and Jane Gillette retired after 20 years in the data processing department at SMB&T. [Jerry Towns photo] Jerry Towns, whose banking career began in 1958 in Toledo, Ohio and featured a stop in Chicago before he became a fixture in Coldwater beginning in 1972, announced his intention to retire from day-to-day banking, effective Dec. 31. Jerry joined Southern Michigan Bank & Trust as a vice president in the commercial lending department in 1972. He subsequently served six years as executive vice president before becoming president in 1979. For the past 15 years he has been chairman & CEO of Southern Michigan Bancorp. After his retirement, Jerry will continue to serve as the holding company's board chairman. A native of nearby Hillsdale and a 1948 graduate of Hillsdale College, Jerry served two years in the U.S. Marine Corp. He is a 1964 graduate of the Graduate School of Banking at the University of Wisconsin. Active in banking trade association matters for much of his career, Jerry holds the distinction of being the only banker to serve two terms (1987-89) as president of the Michigan Association of Community Bankers. He also served as state director to the IBAA, was active in the Ohio Bankers Association and has held committee assignments with the ABA. Beginning in 1982, he moved through the chairs of elected office in the MACB, concluding with the two terms as that association's president. On two separate occasions, Jerry served as a member of the MBA's executive and legislative committees in Lansing. He has been active in community organizations such as the Rotary, the Coldwater Industrial Growth Corp., the local Chamber of Commerce, the Branch County Economic Growth Alliance and the Branch County Community Foundation. Many of these responsibilities have been passed along to others. He remains on the board of the Kellogg Community College Foundation of Battle Creek. Jerry, an avid golfer, plans to play golf "at least four times per week" now that he is retired. He will spend winters in Florida and the remainder of the year here in Coldwater. [Jane Gillette photo] Jane Gillette, a dedicated employee for 20 years, also retired on December 31, 1998. In her 20 years, Jane missed only one day of work due to illness. She was always helpful, cheerful and able to get to the bottom of a problem and solve it. One word describes Jane, "stic-to-it-tiveness." Jane went to college to study data processing, a field she worked in all of her working years. Married to Carl for 42 years this May, Jane has 3 sons, one daughter and 12 grandchildren. During her retirement she intends to pursue her hobby of gardening, enjoy her grandchildren and her mother with whom she was recently reunited. Southern Michigan Bank & Trust will miss both Jerry and Jane tremendously and wish them both all the best for many happy retirement years. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA 2 FIVE YEAR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE 3 LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS 4 MANAGEMENT'S REPORT 5 MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION 12 CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS 13 CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY 14 CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF INCOME 15 CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS 16 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 17 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 29 BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT TEAM 30 OFFICERS 31 EMPLOYEES 32 FACTS ABOUT SOUTHERN MICHIGAN BANCORP, INC.

Southern Michigan Bancorp seized the opportunity, provided by years of increasing profits, to invest in changes that will greatly strengthen long-term shareholder value. As you read the 1998 Annual Report of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. you will see that the investment in change made in 1997 already is starting to bear fruit. You will note, for example, that we had substantial growth in 1998 to go along with record profits. These changes will continue to strengthen long-term shareholder value. [PHOTO OF JERRY L. TOWNS & JAMES T. GROHALSKI] The opening of our new Hillsdale branch office was a very exciting event that took place in the fourth quarter. This new facility serves as a prototype of the financial services office that we will open in the future. The "centers" within are available for customers to receive advice and assistance in obtaining mortgages, financial services for business, and non-deposit investment products, such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds. The office also is uniquely equipped and staffed to handle traditional banking transactions, such as teller services, drive-through banking and ATM's. Almost everyone that we talked to lately has had some concerns about the Year 2000 problem, or Y2K, and how Southern Michigan Bank & Trust is addressing the problem. Before we address that concern, a short definition of the Y2K is required. Simply put, computers cannot tell the difference between the year 1900 and 2000. Initially, programmers dropped off the first two digits of the 19XX year in order to save memory space in the computer. Consequently, the year 2000 might be read as 1900. How is Southern Michigan Bank & Trust addressing the problem? All computers and software the Bank utilizes are purchased from third party vendors. What does this mean? The Bank continuously monitors our vendors for their progress towards Y2K compliance. This process will continue until we receive certification from each critical hardware and software provider. Initial communication with these vendors has not resulted in any Y2K concerns. We began testing procedures on all hardware and software used by the Bank months ago. This was done to determine past and current Y2K conditions and to validate the statements made by our third party vendors. While this is going on, alternate vendors will be contacted as part of our overall contingency plan and these vendors will be asked for their Y2K compliance plans, as well. Be assured that Southern Michigan Bank & Trust is doing everything possible to address all questions concerning the Y2K problem. We are confident that the transition to the Year 2000 will be a smooth one for our customers and shareholders alike. Creating profit and increasing shareholder value will continue to be our goal as we approach the new Millennium. /s/ Jerry L. Towns /s/ James T. Grohalski Jerry L. Towns James T. Grohalski Chairman President & C.E.O. 4 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion provides information about the Company's financial condition which supplements the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The analysis should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and Five Year Performance and Selected Financial Data presented in other sections of this Annual Report. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company functions as a financial intermediary and, as such, its financial condition should be examined in terms of trends in its sources and uses of funds. The Company uses its funds primarily to support its lending activities. Loans increased by 2.9% in 1998 and 4.0% in 1997. Commercial loans increased by 10.3% in 1998 as local businesses expanded and took advantage of lower interest rates. Installment loans declined as the result of competition from both financial and non-financial companies which offer borrowers other low cost financing options. The real estate mortgage portfolio increased primarily due to the offering of competitive home equity products. The Bank's real estate mortgage loan sales to the secondary market continued to increase in 1998. Gains of $1,085,000 (after the capitalization of mortgage servicing rights) were recognized in 1998 and gains of $550,000 were recognized in 1997. There were no loans held for sale at December 31, 1998. The real estate portfolio largely consists of residential mortgages within the local area with a low risk of loss. The Bank anticipates that the sale of loans in the secondary market will continue to increase subject to the impact of economic factors and levels of interest rates. The loan growth in 1997 occurred in all loan categories and is the result of continued good economic conditions within the Company's market area. Despite a significant increase in secondary market loan sales, the Bank's mortgage portfolio increased in 1997 due to the offering of some attractive adjustable rate mortgage products and the Bank's continued efforts to become a market leader in the consumer lending area. Loan commitments, consisting of unused credit card and home equity lines, available amounts on revolving lines of credit and other approved loans which have not been funded, were $31,175,000 and $23,049,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. All of these commitments, with the exception of unused credit cards ($1,616,000 in 1998 and $2,539,000 in 1997), are priced at a variable interest rate thus minimizing the Bank's risk in a changing interest rate environment. There were no significant concentrations in any loan category as to borrower, industry or location. Another significant use of funds is the investment securities portfolio. Investments increased by 50.6% in 1998 and decreased by 20.4% in 1997. The 1998 increase is the result of a significant increase in deposits. The funds received from maturing investments were used to fund the 1997 loan growth since the Bank was not able to fund this growth with deposits. The available for sale portfolio had net unrealized gains of $394,000 in 1998 and $39,000 in 1997. Net unrealized gains in the investment portfolio classified as held to maturity totaled $937,000 in 1998 and $351,000 in 1997. It is the Company's intent to hold these investment securities to maturity with the available for sale securities being available to sell should the Company require additional liquidity. There is no concentration of investments in the portfolio which would constitute an unusual risk. Deposits traditionally represent the Company's principal source of funds. Total deposits increased 12.7% in 1998 and decreased 1.1% in 1997. A complete overhaul of the Bank's personal checking accounts at the beginning of 1998 allowed the Bank to increase the number of deposit accounts. The Bank experienced an increase not only in demand deposit accounts, but in other deposit accounts as well as customers opening secondary accounts to supplement their new checking accounts. The 1997 decrease is the result of the maturing of short-term municipal and school deposits that were acquired late in 1996. Attracting and keeping traditional deposit relationships will continue to be a challenge for the Bank, particularly with the increased competition from non-deposit products. In order to have an alternate funding source, the Bank obtained a $3,000,000 putable advance from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) in December 1997. This advance carries a five year maturity and is secured by a blanket collateral agreement with the FHLB giving the FHLB an unperfected security interest in the Bank's one-to-four family whole mortgage loans, government and agency securities and highly rated mortgage-backed securities. The Bank obtained an additional $2,000,000 advance in February 1998. FHLB advances have been a less expensive way to obtain longer term funds rather than paying a premium for long term deposits. Premises and equipment increased by 25.9% in 1998 and 6.9% in 1997. The Bank opened a new branch office in Hillsdale in October 1998 at an approximate cost of $2,000,000. The Bank made this significant investment because of the growth potential in Hillsdale. The 1997 increase was due to the continued upgrading of the Bank's technology. CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company maintains a strong capital base to take advantage of business opportunities while ensuring that it has resources to absorb the risk inherent in the business. 5 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders 8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) has imposed risk-based capital guidelines applicable to the Company. These guidelines require that bank holding companies maintain capital commensurate with both on and off balance sheet credit risks of their operations. Under the guidelines, a bank holding company must have a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8 percent. In addition, a bank holding company must maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital equal to 4 percent of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital includes common shareholders' equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less goodwill. As a supplement to the risk-based capital requirements, the FRB has also adopted leverage capital ratio requirements. The leverage ratio requirements are intended to insure that adequate capital is maintained against risk other than credit risk. The leverage ratio requirements establish a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets of 3 percent for the most highly rated bank holding companies and banks that do not anticipate and are not experiencing significant growth. All other bank holding companies are required to maintain a ratio of Tier 1 capital to assets of 4 to 5 percent, depending on the particular circumstances and risk profile of the institution. Regulatory agencies have determined that the capital component created by the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 115 should not be included in Tier 1 capital. As such, the net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on available-for-sale securities is not included in the ratios listed in Note N to the financial statements. The ratios include the common stock subject to repurchase obligation in the Company's employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). As seen in Note N, the Company exceeds the well capitalized requirements. In addition to these regulatory requirements, a certain level of capital growth must be achieved to maintain appropriate levels of equity to total assets. During 1998 and 1997, total average assets grew 7.2% and 10.8%. At the same time, average equity (including common stock held by the ESOP) increased 5.2% in 1998 and 11.9% in 1997. Equity grew at a lower level than assets in 1998 because of the repurchase and retirement of 51,079 shares of common stock. Future growth opportunities will focus on maintaining the existing customer base and growing within the Calhoun and Hillsdale county markets. LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY The primary functions of asset/liability management are to assure adequate liquidity and maintain an appropriate balance between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to avoid fluctuating net interest margins and enhance consistent growth of net interest income through periods of changing interest rates. Maturing loans and investment securities are the principal sources of asset liquidity. Securities maturing or callable within 1 year were $29,286,000 at December 31, 1998 representing 43.4% of the amortized cost of the investment securities portfolio, an increase from the 30.4% level of 1997. Loans maturing within 1 year were $37,963,000 at December 31, 1998 representing 23.2% of the loan portfolio, a slight increase from the 20.6% level of 1997. Financial institutions are subject to prepayment risk in falling rate environments. Prepayments of assets carrying higher rates reduce the Company's interest income and overall asset yields. Certain portions of an institution's liabilities may be short-term or due on demand, while most of its assets may be invested in long-term loans or investments. Accordingly, the Company seeks to have in place sources of cash to meet short-term demands. These funds can be obtained by increasing deposits, borrowing, or selling assets. Also, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and short-term borrowings provide additional sources of liquidity for the Company. During the year ended December 31, 1998, there was a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $620,000. The major source of cash in 1998 was the increase in deposits. The major use of cash in 1998 was the purchase of investment securities. During the year ended December 31, 1997, there was a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $3,328,000. The major sources of cash in 1997 were loan sales and maturing securities. The major uses of cash in 1997 were loan growth and loans originated for sale. During the year ended December 31, 1996, there was a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $3,660,000. The major source of cash in 1996 was the increase in deposits resulting from growth in the existing deposit base and the acquisition of two branches. The major use of cash in 1996 was the increase in loans. Federal law places restrictions on extensions of credit from banks to their parent holding company and, with certain exceptions, to other affiliates, on investments in stock or other securities thereof, and on taking of such securities as collateral for loans. Note K to the Consolidated Financial Statements discusses these limitations between the Company and its banking subsidiary. Interest rate risk arises when the maturity or repricing characteristics of assets differ significantly from the maturity or the repricing characteristics of liabilities. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder value, however excessive levels of interest rate risk could pose a significant threat to the Company's earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains interest rate risk at prudent levels is essential to the Company's safety and soundness. 6 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The Company measures the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income through a comprehensive analysis of the Bank's interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Interest rate sensitivity varies with different types of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Overnight federal funds and mutual funds on which rates change daily and loans which are tied to the prime rate or a comparable index differ considerably from long-term investment securities and fixed-rate loans. Similarly, certificates of deposit and money market investment accounts are much more interest sensitive than passbook savings accounts. The shorter term interest rate sensitivities are key to measuring the interest sensitivity gap, or excess interest-earning assets over interest-bearing liabilities. In addition to reviewing the interest sensitivity gap, the Company also analyzes projected changes in market interest rates and the resulting effect on net interest income. The following table shows the interest sensitivity gaps for five different time intervals as of December 31, 1998:
0-30 31-90 91-365 1-5 Over 5 Days Days Days Years Years ------------------------------------------------- Interest-earning assets $61,675 $ 9,101 $54,303 $88,058 $24,670 Interest-bearing liabilities 51,976 81,005 39,236 31,366 ------------------------------------------------- Interest sensitivity gap $ 9,699 $(71,904) $15,067 $56,692 $24,670 =================================================
The primary interest sensitive assets in the one year repricing range are commercial loans and adjustable rate mortgage loans. The primary interest sensitive liabilities in the one year repricing range are money market investment accounts, certificates of deposit and interest bearing checking accounts. This analysis indicates that growth in rate sensitive liabilities has outpaced the growth in rate sensitive assets in the one year range. This has occurred primarily as a result of the inclusion of interest bearing checking accounts and savings accounts in a repricing period of one year or less as these accounts have become rate sensitive as interest rates have fluctuated. The long-term interest sensitivity gap indicates that the Company's net interest margin would improve with an increase in interest rates and decline with further declines in interest rates. Trying to minimize the interest sensitivity gap is a continual challenge in a changing rate environment and one of the objectives of the Company's asset/liability strategy. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net interest income is an effective measurement of how well management has balanced the Company's interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Net interest income increased by 1.7% in 1998, 10.2% in 1997 and 12.0% in 1996. The 1998 increase is due to the reinvestment of funds held in overnight federal funds accounts into higher yielding investment securities. The 1997 and 1996 net interest income increased as a result of the reinvestment of funds received from maturing investment securities into the higher yielding loan portfolio, along with the stability of the Company's cost of funds. The uncertain economic environment and potential fluctuations in interest rates are expected to continue to impact the Company and the industry in 1999. Depending on these interest rate fluctuations, there may be market pressure to raise deposit rates in 1999 and to lower loan rates. The Company monitors deposit rates on a weekly basis and adjusts deposit rates as the market dictates. Loan rates are subject to change as the national prime rate changes and are also influenced by competitor's rates. An increase in deposit rates occurring at the same time as loan rates decrease would cause the Company's net interest income to decline. The provision for loan losses is based on an analysis of the required additions to the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio. Some factors considered by management in determining the level at which the allowance is maintained include specific credit reviews, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions and trends, results of examinations by regulatory agencies and the volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses was $600,000 in 1998, $460,000 in 1997 and $267,000 in 1996. The 1998 provision was increased to provide for increased charge-offs and delinquencies, primarily as a result of increased customer bankruptcies. The 1997 provision was increased to provide for loan growth and the increase in charge-offs and delinquencies. Several customers, including a large commercial borrower, declared bankruptcy, during 1997 resulting in increased charge-offs. Net charge-offs were $431,000 in 1998, $411,000 in 1997 and $62,000 in 1996. The provision in 1996 was increased to provide for significant loan growth. It is anticipated that the Company will continue to experience higher than normal losses in 1999 . The provision will be adjusted quarterly, if necessary, to reflect actual charge-off experience and any known future losses. Non-interest income, excluding security gains and losses, increased by 30.2% in 1998, 15.2% in 1997 and 28.8% in 1996. The 1998 increase is due to increased service charge income, increased gains recognized on the sale of secondary market real estate mortgage loans and increased income from the Bank's automatic teller machines (ATMs). The Bank increased its deposit base by 12.7% in 1998 and generated additional service charges as a result of the growth. In order to reduce the risk associated with changing interest rates, the Bank regularly sells fixed rate real estate mortgage loans on the secondary market. The Bank recognizes a profit at the 7 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) time of the sale and receives a fee in order to service the loans. During this period of relatively low interest rates, the Bank has generated large volumes of fixed rate mortgage loans. During 1998, the Bank began assessing a fee to noncustomers who use the Bank's ATMs and thus increased fees generated. The 1997 increase is due to increased service charges on deposit accounts as a result of the additional deposits purchased in connection with the acquisition of two branches late in 1996, increased gains recognized on the sale of secondary market real estate mortgage loans in 1997 due to an increase in activity, increased fees from the sale of non-depository investment products in 1997 due to an increase in activity and unrecognized losses on real estate mortgage loans held for sale recorded in 1996. These increases were partially offset by a decline in trust income due to a decline in trust assets and a decline in earnings on Bank owned life insurance policies due to an increase in premium payments. The increase in 1996 was due to an increase in trust income, as a result of increased trust assets, increased secondary market gains due to an increase in activity and the capitalization of mortgage servicing rights, increased earnings in Bank-owned life insurance policies and increased rental income. These increases were partially offset by a $61,000 unrealized loss on $1,200,000 in real estate mortgage loans previously classified as held for sale and transferred to the Bank's loan portfolio. This loss will be amortized through the maturity dates of the loans. Security gains of $0 in 1998, $5,000 in 1997 and $10,000 in 1996 were recognized. Non-interest expense increased by 1.8% in 1998, 16.0% in 1997 and 10.6% in 1996. The primary expense categories that increased in 1998 were occupancy, equipment and marketing. Occupancy and equipment costs increased as a result of the opening or the new Hillsdale branch and continued upgrades to the Bank's technology base. Marketing expenditures increased as the Bank revamped its checking account products. The 1997 increase is due to additional personnel costs, occupancy costs, marketing and advertising expenditures, training costs and intangible asset amortization as a result of the acquisition of two branches late in 1996. Trust department expenses also increased in 1997 as professional consultants and new trust administrators were added in order to increase the trust department's market share. Equipment costs increased in 1997 as the Company invested in significant technological upgrades. The 1996 increase was due to increased salary and benefit costs associated with an increase in the number of employees, increased occupancy and equipment costs associated with the new retail loan centers and technology improvements made throughout the Bank, increased training expenditures and increased marketing and advertising expenditures to promote the new retail loan centers and the branches acquired from First of America. These increases were partially offset by a decline in legal fees and FDIC premiums. Income tax expense was $1,185,000 in 1998, $1,085,000 in 1997 and $1,150,000 in 1996. Tax-exempt income continues to have a major impact on the Company's tax expense. The benefit offsetting lower coupon rates on municipal instruments is the nontaxable feature of the income earned on such instruments. This resulted in a lower effective tax rate and reduced federal income tax expense by approximately $350,000 in 1998, $254,000 in 1997 and $227,000 in 1996. Results of operations can be measured by various ratio analyses. Two widely recognized performance indicators are the return on equity and the return on assets. The Company's return on equity was 17.48% in 1998, 14.96% in 1997 and 16.09% in 1996. The return on average assets was 1.42% in 1998, 1.30% in 1997 and 1.45% in 1996. The majority of assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature and therefore differ greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in fixed assets or inventories. However, inflation does have an important impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry and the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than normal rates in order to maintain an appropriate equity-to-assets ratio. Another significant effect of inflation is on other expenses, which tend to rise during periods of general inflation. Management believes the most significant impact on financial results is the Company's ability to react to changes in interest rates. As discussed previously, management is attempting to maintain an essentially balanced position between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide interest rate fluctuations. YEAR 2000 The Company has developed a plan to assess Year 2000 issues. The concern is whether or not computers, elevators, telephone systems and other electronic items will recognize the Year 2000 as a valid date. For banks, this is a concern not only for the bank's operations, but for those of their customers and vendors. As part of the Year 2000 plan, the Company has identified all critical business processes and established a priority schedule for assessment of each process. 8 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 11 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The first step in the plan is the testing of the Company's critical hardware systems to verify that the systems are Year 2000 compliant. The critical hardware systems include the mainframe computer system and some personal computers. The testing of all critical hardware will be completed by March 31, 1999. The next step in the Company's plan is to perform testing on all critical software. The Company has no software that is internally programmed; all software is purchased from external vendors. The Company has implemented a verification process to establish that critical software purchased from software vendors is Year 2000 compliant. Critical software includes mainframe operating software, trust systems, Microsoft operating systems and systems providing connectivity of network hardware. The testing of critical software will be substantially completed by March 31, 1999. As part of its Year 2000 plan, the Company has initiated formal communications with its critical service providers to determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to any failure of those third parties to remedy their own Year 2000 issues. Critical service providers include phone companies and energy providers. This review of service providers will be completed by June 30, 1999. There can be no assurance that the systems of other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be remedied in a timely manner or that there will be no adverse effect on the Company's systems. Therefore, the Company could be negatively impacted to the extent that other entities not affiliated with the Company are unsuccessful in properly addressing Year 2000 issues. A key step in the Company's Year 2000 plan is the development of a Remediation Contingency Plan to mitigate risks associated with a failure to successfully complete renovation, validation and implementation of the Company's Year 2000 plan. The Remediation Contingency Plan will provide for alternate service providers and software vendors in the event that the Company's current service providers and software vendors are not fully Year 2000 compliant by March 31, 1999, in the case of software vendors, and June 30, 1999, in the case of service providers. The Remediation Contingency Plan will be developed by mid March 1999. Also by June 30, 1999, the Company will have in place an expanded Business Resumption Plan. This Plan will be an addition to the Company's current Business Resumption Plan and will specifically address Year 2000 issues and the interruption of the Company's business operations by such things as a power outage. The Business Resumption Plan will include the identification of the Company's core business processes and a specific recovery plan for the possible failure of each core business process. A sustained power outage or similar disruption will have an adverse effect on the Company's operations; however, management is not aware of any facts which would indicate that such disruptions are likely. Another important step in the Company's Year 2000 plan is the identification of all significant customers whose own Year 2000 compliance status may pose a risk to the Company. As part of this step, the Company will determine the actions these customers are taking to avoid significant disruptions that could result from the Year 2000 date change. This step will be completed by mid March 1999. The Company's Board of Directors reviews the status of the Year 2000 issues on a monthly basis. The Company will incur remediation and testing costs relating to Year 2000 issues through the Year 2000, but does not anticipate that material incremental costs will be incurred in any single period. The costs of the project and the date on which the Company plans to complete Year 2000 modifications are based upon management's best estimates. The Company has been engaged in activities addressing Year 2000 issues since mid 1997. In January, 1999, the Bank entered into discussions with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") regarding the Bank's Year 2000 preparedness. As a result of such discussions, the Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the FDIC describing certain actions to be taken by the Bank to address Year 2000 issues. The Company is actively pursuing all such actions (which actions are summarized above) and anticipates that it will complete all such actions in a timely manner. NONPERFORMING ASSETS Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans past due 90 days or more, and other real estate which includes foreclosures and deeds in lieu of foreclosure. A loan generally is classified as nonaccrual when full collectibility of principal or interest is doubtful or a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest, unless management determines that the estimated net realizable value of the collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed, and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Nonperforming loans are returned to performing status when the loan is brought current and has performed in accordance with contract terms for a period of time. 9 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders 12 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The following table sets forth the aggregate amount of nonperforming loans in each of the following categories:
December 31 1998 1997 1996 ------------------------- (Dollars in thousands) Nonaccrual loans: Commercial, financial and agricultural $ 343 $1,026 $448 Real estate mortgage 0 0 0 Installment 0 61 2 ------------------------- 343 1,087 450 Loans contractually past due 90 days or more: Commercial, financial and agricultural $ 807 $1,067 82 Real estate mortgage 161 630 129 Installment 120 966 165 ------------------------- 1,088 2,663 376 ------------------------- Total nonperforming loans 1,431 3,750 826 Other real estate owned 166 103 76 ------------------------- Total nonperforming assets $1,597 $3,853 $902 ========================= Nonperforming loans to year-end loans .88% 2.36% .54% Nonperforming assets to year-end loans and other real estate owned .98% 2.43% .59%
Nonperforming loans decreased in 1998 as some of 1997's problem loans were charged off and the Company accelerated its collection activities. Some increase in nonperforming loans was expected in 1997 due to the significant loan growth that occurred in recent years. Customers experienced heavier debt loads due to the ease of obtaining credit and this is resulted in an increase in bankruptcy filings and delinquencies. Nonperforming loans are subject to continuous monitoring by management and are specifically reserved for in the allowance for loan losses where appropriate. At December 31, 1998, the Company had approximately $3,931,000 in commercial, financial and agricultural loans for which payments are presently current but the borrowers are experiencing certain financial and/or operational difficulties. These loans are subject to frequent management review and their classification is reviewed on a monthly basis. In management's evaluation of the loan portfolio risks, any significant future increases in nonperforming loans is dependent to a large extent on the economic environment. In a deteriorating or uncertain economy, management applies more conservative assumptions when assessing the future prospects of borrowers and when estimating collateral values. This may result in a higher number of loans being classified as nonperforming. REGULATORY MATTERS Representatives of the FDIC completed an examination at the Company's subsidiary bank using financial information as of December 31, 1997. The purpose of the examination was to determine the safety and soundness of the bank. Examination procedures require individual judgments about a borrower's ability to repay loans, sufficiency of collateral values and the effects of changing economic circumstances. These procedures are similar to those employed by the Company in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and in classifying loans. Judgments made by regulatory examiners may differ from those made by management. The Company's level and classification of identified potential problem loans was not revised significantly as a result of this regulatory examination process. Management and the Board of Directors evaluate existing practices and procedures on an ongoing basis. In addition, regulators often make recommendations during the course of their examination that relate to the operations of the Company and the Bank. As a matter of practice, management and the Board of Directors consider such recommendations promptly. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and to a lesser extent liquidity risk. See Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity, above. Business is transacted in U.S. dollars with no foreign exchange rate risk or any exposure to changes in commodity prices. The following tables provide information about the Company's financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates as of December 31, 1998 and 1997. The Company had no derivative financial instruments, or trading portfolio, at either date. 10 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 13 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The expected maturity date values for loans receivable, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities were calculated without adjusting the instrument's contractual maturity date for expectations of prepayments. Expected maturity date values for interest-bearing core deposits were not based upon estimates of the period over which the deposits would be outstanding, but rather the opportunity for repricing. Similarly, with respect to its variable rate instruments, the Company believes that repricing dates, as opposed to expected maturity dates may be more relevant in analyzing the value of such instruments and are reported as such in the following table. Company borrowings are also reported based on conversion or repricing dates.

11 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders 14 MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION Management of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. has prepared and is responsible for the accompanying financial statements and for their integrity and objectivity. In the opinion of management, the financial statements, which necessarily include amounts based on management's estimates and judgments, have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles on a consistent basis. Management also prepared the other information in the Annual Report and is responsible for its accuracy and consistency with the financial statements. The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are executed in accordance with the Company's authorizations and policies. Further, such a system provides reasonable assurances as to the integrity and reliability of the financial statements which fairly present financial position and results of operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal accounting controls are augmented by written policies covering standards of personal and business conduct and an organizational structure providing for division of responsibility and authority. Management monitors the effectiveness of and compliance with established control systems through a continuous program of internal audit and credit examinations and recommends possible improvements thereto. In addition, as part of their audit of the Company's financial statements, Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP, independent auditors, completed an evaluation of selected internal accounting controls to establish a basis for reliance thereon in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests to be applied. Management has considered the recommendations from the examination of controls concerning the Company's system of internal controls and has taken actions that we believe are cost-effective in the circumstances to respond appropriately to these recommendations. Management believes that, as of December 31, 1998, the Company's system of internal controls is adequate to accomplish the objectives discussed herein. Further, management believes the system of controls has prevented or detected on a timely basis any occurrences that could be material to the financial statements and that timely corrective actions have been initiated when appropriate. The Board of Directors exercises its responsibility for the financial statements and related information through the Audit Committee, which is composed entirely of outside directors. The Audit Committee meets regularly with management and Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP, to assess the scope of the annual audit plan and to review the status and results of audits, including major changes in accounting policies and reporting practices. Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP has direct and confidential access to the Audit Committee at all times to discuss the results of their audits. /s/ Jerry L. Towns /s/ James T. Grohalski Jerry L.

See accompanying notes. 16 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 19 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1998 NOTE A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND INDUSTRY SEGMENTS: Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company. The Company's business is concentrated in the commercial banking industry segment. The business of commercial and retail banking accounts for more than 90% of its revenues, operating income and assets. Internal financial information is primarily reported and aggregated in the line of business of banking. The Bank offers individuals, businesses, institutions and government agencies a full range of commercial banking services primarily in the southern Michigan communities in which the Bank is located and in areas immediately surrounding these communities. The Bank grants commercial, real estate and consumer loans to customers. The majority of loans are secured by specific assets and consumer assets. There are no foreign loans. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Southern Michigan Bank & Trust (the Bank), after elimination of significant intercompany balances and transactions. USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that are more susceptible to change in the near term include the allowance for loan losses, deferred income tax provisions, fair values of certain securities and other financial instruments and the actuarial present value of pension benefit obligations and net periodic pension expense and prepaid pension costs. INVESTMENT SECURITIES (including mortgage-backed securities): Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase. If management has the intent and the Company has the ability at the time of purchase to hold securities until maturity, they are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized historical cost. Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time and not intended to be held to maturity are classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income. Securities classified as available-for-sale include securities that management intends to use as part of its asset/liability management strategy and that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk, and other factors. The Company is not currently involved in trading activities. Premiums and discounts on securities are recognized in interest income using the level yield method over the estimated life of the security. Gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific identification method. LOANS: Loans are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses. Loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or market, on an aggregate basis. Interest on loans is credited to income based upon principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest income generally is discontinued when a loan becomes over 90 days past due as to principal or interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest credited to income in the current year is reversed, and accrued interest from the prior year is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the estimated net realized value of collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest. The carrying values of impaired loans are periodically adjusted to reflect cash payments, revised estimates of future cash flows and increases in the present value of expected cash flows due to the passage of time. Cash payments representing interest income are reported as such. Other cash payments are reported as reductions in carrying value, while increases or decreases due to changes in estimates of future payments and due to the passage of time are included in the provision for loan losses. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES: The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate to absorb potential losses in the portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on a continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, composition of the loan portfolio and other relevant factors. The allowance is increased by provisions charged against income. A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer and credit card loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan's existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. 17 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders 20 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT: Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed principally using accelerated methods over their estimated useful lives. SERVICING RIGHTS: Servicing rights are recognized as assets for the allocated value of retained servicing rights on loans sold. Servicing rights are expensed in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing rights revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of the rights, using groupings of the underlying loans as to interest rates and then, secondarily, as to geographic and prepayment characteristics. Any impairment of a grouping is reported as a valuation allowance. GOODWILL AND CORE DEPOSIT INTANGIBLES: Goodwill is the excess of purchase price over identified net assets in business acquisitions. Goodwill is amortized on the straight-line method over 15 years. Core deposit intangibles represent the value of depositor relationships purchased and are amortized on accelerated methods over 10 years. Goodwill was $807,000 and $870,000 and core deposit intangibles were $464,000 and $559,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997 respectively, and these balances are included in other assets. OTHER REAL ESTATE: Other real estate ($166,000 and $103,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997 respectively), which is included in other assets, comprises properties acquired through a foreclosure proceeding or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. These properties are initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and real estate is carried at the lower of fair value minus estimated cost of disposal or cost. INCOME TAXES: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE: Basic earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. ESOP shares are considered outstanding for this calculation unless unearned. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings and dividends per share are restated for all stock splits and dividends through the date of issue of the financial statements. The weighted average common shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 were 1,895,292, 1,910,449 and 1,886,324, respectively. 18 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 21 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) CASH FLOW INFORMATION: For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and due from banks as cash and cash equivalents. The Company reports net cash flows for customer loan and deposit transactions. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale which are also recognized as separate components of equity. The accounting standard that requires reporting comprehensive income first applies for 1998, with prior information restated to be comparable. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note M. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect such estimates. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK: The Company grants commercial, real estate and installment loans to customers mainly in Southern Michigan. Commercial loans include loans collateralized by commercial real estate, business assets and agricultural loans collateralized by crops and farm equipment. Commercial, financial and agricultural loans make up approximately 51% of the loan portfolio and the loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Residential mortgage loans make up approximately 31% of the loan portfolio and are collateralized by mortgages on residential real estate. Consumer loans make up approximately 18% of the loan portfolio and are primarily collateralized by consumer assets. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK: The Company, in the normal course of business, makes commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. A summary of these commitments is disclosed in Note J. LOSS CONTINGENCIES: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements. RECLASSIFICATIONS: Some items in the prior consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: Beginning January 1, 2000, a new accounting standard will require all derivatives to be recorded at fair value. Unless designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be recorded in the income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will generally be recorded by offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the hedged item, even if the fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise recorded. This is not expected to have a material effect but the effect will depend on derivative holdings when this standard applies.

An allowance against the deferred tax asset was not considered necessary at December 31, 1998, 1997, or 1996. NOTE I - RETIREMENT PLANS The defined benefit pension plan covers substantially all full-time employees. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee's average highest compensation during five consecutive years of employment. The funding policy is to contribute annually an amount sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, plus additional amounts as may be appropriate from time to time. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date but also for those expected to be earned in the future. Information about the pension plan was as follows (in thousands).

The Company has an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) for substantially all full-time employees. The Board of Directors determines the Company's contribution level annually. Assets of the plan are held in trust by the Bank and administrative costs of the plan are borne by the plan sponsor. Costs charged to operations for contributions to the plan totaled $90,000 in 1998, $66,000 in 1997 and $71,000 in 1996. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the ESOP held 150,727 and 144,082 shares of the Company's stock all of which is allocated to employees. The fair value of the shares held by the ESOP approximated $6,029,000 and $4,899,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Upon distribution of shares to a participant, the participant has the right to require the Company to purchase shares at their fair value in accordance with terms and conditions of the plan. As such these shares are not classified in shareholders' equity as permanent equity. As an incentive to retain key members of management and directors, the Bank has a deferred compensation plan whereby participants defer a portion of current compensation. Benefits are based on salary and length of service and are vested as service is provided from the date of participation through age 65. A liability is recorded on a present value basis and discounted at current interest rates. This liability may change depending upon changes in long-term interest rates. Deferred compensation expense was $229,000 in 1998, $206,000 in 1997 and $189,000 in 1996. The liability for vested benefits was $1,382,000 at December 31, 1998 and $1,264,000 at December 31, 1997. The Bank holds life insurance contracts on the plan's participants. The cash surrender value of these policies was $4,309,000 at December 31, 1998 and $3,725,000 at December 31, 1997 and is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. NOTE J - COMMITMENTS There are various commitments which arise in the normal course of business, such as commitments under commercial letters of credit, standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit. Generally accepted accounting principles recognize these transactions as contingent liabilities and accordingly, they are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. These arrangements have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and are subject to the Bank's normal credit policies. Collateral generally consists of receivables, inventory and equipment and is obtained based on management's credit assessment of the customer. At December 31, 1998, the Bank had commitments under commercial letters of credit, used to facilitate customers' trade transactions, of $133,000 (1997 - $136,000). Under standby letter of credit agreements, the Bank agrees to honor certain commitments in the event that its customers are unable to do so. At December 31, 1998 commitments under outstanding standby letters of credit were $385,000 (1997 - - $347,000). Loan commitments outstanding to extend credit at December 31 are detailed below:
1998 1997 ---- ---- Fixed rate $ 1,616,000 $ 2,539,000 Variable rate 29,559,000 20,510,000 ----------- ----------- $31,175,000 $23,049,000 =========== ===========
The fixed rate commitments have stated interest rates ranging from 6.9% to 18.0%. The terms of the above commitments range from 1 to 60 months. Management does not anticipate any losses as a result of the above related transactions; however, the above amount represents the maximum exposure to credit loss for loan commitments and commercial and standby letters of credit. 24 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 27 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE K - RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS FROM SUBSIDIARY Banking laws and regulations restrict the amount the Bank may transfer to the Company in the form of cash dividends, loans and advances.

NOTE M - FAIR VALUE INFORMATION FASB Statement 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Statement 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company and represent point-in-time estimates of value that might not be particularly relevant in predicting the Company's future earnings or cash flows. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments: CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and due from banks approximate those assets' fair values. INVESTMENT SECURITIES (INCLUDING MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES): Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. The fair value of restricted equity securities approximates amortized cost. LOANS: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flows analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. OFF-BALANCE-SHEET INSTRUMENTS: Fair values for the Bank's letters of credit are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties' credit standing. It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of lending commitments because of the wide variety of the instruments. 26 Southern Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary 29 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE M - FAIR VALUE INFORMATION (CONTINUED) DEPOSIT LIABILITIES: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of expected monthly maturities on time deposits. OTHER BORROWINGS: The fair value of the Bank's other borrowings is estimated using discounted cash flows analysis based on the Bank's current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at December 31 are as follows (in thousands):
1998 1997 ------------------------------ ------------------------------ CARRYING FAIR Carrying Fair AMOUNT VALUE Amount Value ------------------------------ ------------------------------ Financial assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 16,228 $ 16,228 $ 16,848 $ 16,848 Federal funds sold 4,000 4,000 4,500 4,500 Investment securities available for sale 36,138 36,138 12,853 12,853 Investment securities held to maturity 31,756 32,693 32,221 32,572 Loans 163,303 163,588 158,741 158,378

27 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders 30 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE N - REGULATORY MATTERS The Company and Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the regulators can lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, under-capitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required. The minimum requirements are:
Capital to risk- weighted assets ----------------------- Tier 1 capital Total Tier 1 to average assets ----------------------- ----------------- Well capitalized 10% 6% 5% Adequately capitalized 8% 4% 4% Undercapitalized 6% 3% 3%
At year end, actual capital levels (in thousands) and minimum required levels were:

The office is a portrayal of another way SMB&T has shown its commitment to the community of Hillsdale and its citizens, our customers, to provide the best service possible. We call it Quality Customer Service - Southern Style. "Our primary goal is to establish an atmosphere that causes our employees to routinely deliver high quality service, which reinforces our claim that we are the "innovation leader" in customer service. We intend to create a banking office that is a 'model' for the bank of the future. It's interior will be sales oriented and highly interpersonal. We'll take customer service to a level that will differentiate us by its uniqueness - in terms of personal commitment and style of presentation." - - SMB&T Marketing Plan - Hillsdale, 1997 One of our goals in constructing the 4,300 square foot building was to make financial services more accessible to our customers and community at large. The architectural design of the Hillsdale office was created to provide a branch environment that encourages relationship banking. In recognition of our new Hillsdale office, the Hillsdale County Chamber of Commerce and Marshburn/Bunkley Architect Associates presented the 1998 Architectural/Renovation Award to Southern Michigan Bank & Trust "whose efforts in design, restoration and beautification enhanced and improved the appearance of the community." We are humbled, but proud of the Chamber's recognition and our contribution to the Hillsdale community. As mentioned, the interior is sales oriented and highly interpersonal. The implementation of the concept demanded that the staff be proactive in both sales and service as well as be aware of the functionality of the branch as a whole. This meant the Bank needed to commit to a higher level of staffing. To this end, we added three positions to the staffing level at our new location. The Hillsdale office provides the full array of banking services including home equity loans. Stop by and say hello to our friendly staff. They'll be happy to see you. 36 [SOUTHERN MICHIGAN BANCORP, INC. LOGO] 51 W.
