UNITED BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES UNAUDITED

THIRD QUARTER AND YEAR TO DATE 2012 RESULTS

ANN ARBOR, MI – United Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQB: UBMI) reported consolidated net income of $1.4 million, or $0.09 per share of common stock, for the third quarter of 2012, compared to a consolidated net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.19 per share of common stock, for the third quarter of 2011. Consolidated net income for the first nine months of 2012 was $3.0 million, or $0.17 per share of common stock, compared to a consolidated net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.18 per share of common stock, for the first nine months of 2011.

Highlights of the third quarter of 2012 include:

· Continued improving trends in profitability

· Steady improvement in net interest income resulting from loan growth and core funding

· Noninterest income reaches record levels

· Favorable operating leverage achieved compared to the same period last year

· Improving trends in credit quality measures

­- Allowance for loan losses/nonperforming loans above 100% for the first time since the second quarter of 2007

­- 21.5% decrease in nonperforming assets in the third quarter of 2012

­- Nonperforming assets at their lowest levels since the second quarter of 2009

· Capital ratios remained strong, and continued to improve

Robert K. Chapman, President and Chief Executive Officer of United Bancorp, Inc. ("United" or the "Company"), commented, "The third quarter of 2012 was especially encouraging for us, as we achieved significant improvement in our credit quality." He noted that the improvements in credit quality measures and the resulting lower levels of loan loss provision have been a contributing factor in the Company's return toward sustained profitability. The Company's double-digit increases in noninterest income also have significantly contributed to the higher earnings levels achieved so far in 2012.

United unveiled a new brand campaign, including an updated logo and related branding treatment, in the third quarter of 2012. Mr. Chapman noted that the rebranding effort more accurately reflects the transformation of the Company in recent years. Mr. Chapman commented, "We have been growing into new communities and expanding our footprint in SBA lending, commercial lending specializing in professional services, and mortgage lending. Going forward, our recognizable logo and related rebranding will better position us for the future."

Results of Operations

United achieved its fourth consecutive quarter of profitability in the quarter ended September 30, 2012, and the sixth profitable quarter since the end of 2010. The Company's consolidated net income was $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2012 and $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to losses of $2.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for the same periods of

Page 1

2011. Performance ratios also continued to improve for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Return on average assets ("ROA") was 0.62% and 0.45%, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, compared to -0.95% and -0.21%, respectively, for the comparable periods of 2011. Return on average shareholders' equity ("ROE") was 5.79% and 4.26%, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, compared to -8.85% and -1.97%, respectively, for the same periods of 2011.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

For the third quarter of 2012, United's net interest income of $7.6 million was up 2.8% compared to the same period of 2011, and net interest income of $22.8 million for the first nine months of 2012 was 1.9% above the same period of 2011. Despite continued downward pressure on both short and long-term interest rates, United has maintained a stable net interest margin over the past several quarters, primarily as a result of three factors – portfolio loan growth, deployment of excess liquidity, and funding of growth with core deposits.

The Company's mix of assets has evolved over recent quarters, resulting in a slowing of the decline in its yields on earning assets. Portfolio loan growth of $14.5 million in the third quarter and $28.1 million in first nine months of 2012 has contributed to this shift in mix. The Company converted its loan production office in Brighton, Michigan to a full-service banking office in the second quarter of 2012, and opened a new loan production office within the City of Monroe, Michigan in July 2012. Both offices have contributed to increased lending activity. In addition, loan volumes within the Bank's existing markets have improved modestly.

The Company has held historically high levels of liquidity since 2009, during this extended period of economic uncertainty. While the additional liquidity contributed to the Company's margin compression during that time period, a shift of a portion of its liquidity from federal funds and equivalents to investment securities in 2012 has slowed United's decline in yields on earning assets.  At the same time, the Bank has reduced its average balances of FHLB advances and higher-cost deposits during the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, and continues to fund its growth primarily with core deposits. United's net interest margin was 3.63% for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, compared to 3.58% and 3.63% respectively, for the same periods of 2011.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income for the quarter and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 was up 30.7% and 24.0%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2011. United's double-digit increases in noninterest income continued to be a significant driver of the Company's improved earnings. This improvement in noninterest income was driven, in part, by increased loan originations, both of residential mortgages and SBA loans. The Company has experienced mortgage loan originators and SBA lending expertise, supported by a strong internal loan underwriting, processing and servicing infrastructure. In the first nine months of 2012, the Company has originated and sold $271.6 million of loans, and at September 30, 2012, United's servicing portfolio consisted of $816.3 million of loans the Company has originated and sold on the secondary market.

Operating Leverage

As a result of strong financial performance, the Company's combined net interest income and noninterest income was up 13.0% in the third quarter and 9.8% in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same periods of 2011. During the same periods, the Company's noninterest expense increased by 2.4% and 7.0%, respectively.

Page 2

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expenses were up $216,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, in the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, compared to the same periods of 2011. Salaries and employee benefits for the third quarter and first nine months of 2012 increased by 14.8% and 11.2%, respectively, over the same periods one year earlier. The increases reflect, in part, continued higher levels of commissions and other compensation costs related to the generation of income from loan sales and servicing. In addition, the Company has increased its staffing levels modestly to accommodate its expansion into Livingston and Monroe Counties. The Company did not pay or accrue any cash bonus or other payout to executive officers or non-commissioned employees under our bonus plans in 2011 or the first nine months of 2012.

Attorney, accounting and other professional fees were down 12.6% in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same quarter of 2011. For the first nine months of 2012, these expenses were up 23.2% over the same period of 2011. However, attorney, accounting and other professional fees in the second quarter of 2012 included $299,000 of legal and accounting costs related to the sale by the U.S. Treasury of all of the Company's 20,600 shares of Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, during that quarter.

The Company reduced its advertising and marketing expenditures by approximately 50% in 2009 compared to 2008, and those expenses have remained at reduced levels since that time. Advertising and marketing expenses increased by 15.9% in the third quarter and 17.6% in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same periods of 2011.The increase partially reflects the Company's launch of a new branding initiative in the third quarter of 2012. This branding initiative represents a renewed emphasis on marketing and the Company expects a trend toward more historic spending levels for marketing and advertising expense.

Expenses related to ORE and other foreclosed properties decreased by nearly $400,000 in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the third quarter of 2011, but have increased by $207,000 in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. Those expenses included write-downs of the value and losses on the sale of property held as ORE, along with costs to maintain and carry those properties. In addition, during the first six months of 2012, the Company recorded $770,000 of probable incurred expenses relating to residential mortgages previously sold on the secondary market that subsequently defaulted, and no such expense was recorded in the third quarter of 2012.

The Company's provision for loan losses for the third quarter and first nine months of 2012 was $2.0 million and $6.7 million, respectively, down from $6.0 million and $11.9 million for the same periods of 2011. The reduced level of provision for loan losses is a direct result of United's improvement in its credit quality measures.

Balance Sheet

Total consolidated assets of the Company were $898.6 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $885.0 million at December 31, 2011 and $894.4 million at September 30, 2011. The Company's recent loan growth reflects United's entry into adjacent markets, combined with a moderate strengthening of the local economy. Total portfolio loans of $591.8 million increased by $28.1 million, or 5.0%, in the first nine months of 2012, and by $14.2 million, or 2.5%, since September 30, 2011.

United's balances in federal funds sold and other short-term investments were $52.0 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $91.8 million at December 31, 2011 and $99.4 million at

Page 3

September 30, 2011. Securities available for sale of $198.1 million at September 30, 2012 were up $24.8 million from December 31, 2011 levels and have increased by $33.1 million since September 30, 2011.

Total deposits of $776.0 million at September 30, 2012 were up $11.2 million from $764.9 million at December 31, 2011, with all of the growth in non-interest bearing deposit balances. The majority of the Bank's deposits are derived from core client sources, relating to long-term relationships with local individual, business and public clients. Public clients include local government and municipal bodies, hospitals, universities and other educational institutions.

Asset Quality

The Company achieved significant improvement in its asset quality measures in the third quarter of 2012, continuing the recent trends. United's ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans was 3.80% and the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 108.0% at September 30, 2012, compared to 3.66% and 80.0%, respectively, at December 31, 2011, and 4.22% and 81.8%, respectively, at September 30, 2011. The Company's allowance for loan losses increased by $1.8 million from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012, as provision for loan losses expense has exceeded net charge-offs in each of the quarters of 2012. Net charge-offs have averaged approximately $1.6 million per quarter for 2012, representing the lowest level since the second quarter of 2008.

The Company's level of nonperforming assets was at its lowest level since the second quarter of 2009. A significant portion of the decline in nonperforming assets in the third quarter of 2012 was the result of payoffs of three nonaccrual loans totaling $4.5 million. Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans, plus balances of other real estate owned. Within the Company's loan portfolio, $20.8 million of loans were considered nonperforming at September 30, 2012, compared to $25.8 million at December 31, 2011 and $29.8 million at September 30, 2011. Total nonperforming loans as a percent of total portfolio loans decreased from 4.57% at the end of 2011 and 5.16% at September 30, 2011 to 3.51% at September 30, 2012. For purposes of this presentation, nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans and accruing loans that are past due 90 days or more, and exclude accruing restructured loans.

Capital Management

In December 2010, the Company closed its public offering of 7,583,800 shares of common stock. The net proceeds to the Company, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $17.1 million. The Company has contributed $12.0 million of the net proceeds of the offering to the capital of the Bank to increase the Bank's capital and regulatory capital ratios. As a result of the capital contribution and improved profitability, the Bank was in compliance with the capital requirements of its MOU with the FDIC and OFIR at December 31, 2010 and 2011, and September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, the Bank's Tier 1 capital ratio was 9.63%, and its ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 15.61%, and the Bank was categorized as well-capitalized under applicable regulatory guidelines.

(1)	In an attempt to evaluate the trends of net interest income, noninterest income and noninterest expense, the Company calculates pre-tax, pre-provision income ("PTPP Income") and pre-tax, pre-provision return on average assets ("PTPP ROA"). PTPP Income adjusts net income by the amount of the Company's federal income tax (benefit) and provision for loan losses, which is excluded because its level is elevated and volatile in times of economic stress. PTPP ROA measures PTPP Income as a percent of average assets. While this information is not consistent with, or intended to replace, presentation under generally accepted accounting principles, it is presented here for comparison.
	Management believes that PTPP Income and PTPP ROA are useful and consistent measures of the Company's earning capacity, as these financial measures enable investors and others to assess the Company's ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle, particularly in times of economic stress.
(2)	Market value per share is based on the last reported transaction on OTCQB before period end.
