JASPER, INDIANA November 4, 2003 GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP CORRECTS RECENT PRESS RELEASE DATA

German American Bancorp (NASDAQ: GABC) announced that the Consolidated Statements of Income for the comparative three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 that were included with the Company’s press release dated October 30, 2003 reported incorrect information regarding the Company’s diluted earnings per share. The Company’s diluted earnings per share in fact did not differ from the Company’s reported earnings per share for any of the periods presented, but the Consolidated Statements of Income that were attached to the October 30, 2003, press release included a separate line item for diluted earnings per share that reported different amounts for each period presented. Because the two measures in fact did not differ for any of these periods, the corrected Consolidated Statements of Income that are included with this press release merge the presentation of earnings per share with the presentation of diluted earnings per share on the same line for all periods presented. The text of the Company’s press release dated October 30, 2003 is unaffected by this correction, and the Company’s consolidated financial statements that were included with that press release are otherwise unaffected by this correction.

German American Bancorp is a financial services holding company based in Jasper, Indiana. The Company’s Common Stock is traded on NASDAQ’s National Market System under the symbol GABC. The Company operates five affiliated community banks with 26 retail banking offices in the eight contiguous Southwestern Indiana counties of Daviess, Dubois, Gibson, Knox, Martin, Perry, Pike, Spencer and a Business Lending Center in Evansville, Indiana.
