highlights: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our preliminary earnings for the third quarter of 2015 were $2,862,000 or $0.30 per share diluted available to common shareholders. This
compares to $1,900,000 or $0.21 per share diluted available to common shareholders for 2014. This was a 50% increase in earnings. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Year-to-date earnings
were $8,360,000 or $.87 per share diluted available to common shareholders compared to $5,790,000 or $.64 per share diluted available to common shareholders for the same period last year. This is a 44% increase in earnings. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our year-to-date net interest income, the amount we make gathering deposits and making loans, was $35,231,000 - $4,116,000 greater than the same period of
2014. Net loan growth of $84,926,000 or 9.4% contributed to an increase in interest income of $3,378,000 over the same period last year. At the same time, slightly more than half of our deposit growth was in noninterest-bearing accounts,
contributing to the decrease in interest expense of $738,000. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our year-to-date Provision for Loan Loss was $1,200,000 compared to $1,500,000 for 2014.
Challenged loans remaining from the recession continued to stabilize and we are comfortable with the adequacy of our reserves. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The year-to-date
noninterest income was $11,132,000 compared to $11,016,000 for the same period in 2014. Within noninterest income we enjoyed a $303,000 or 9.5% increase in service charge revenue. This is largely the result of focusing on fee opportunities in the
Dayton market and generating additional cash management services for corporate accounts. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our year-to-date noninterest expenses were $32,203,000. This is
$1,135,000 or 3.7% greater than the same period last year. This can largely be attributed to the addition of the Dayton operation &#150; which helped generate the $4,116,000 increase in net interest income. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our business model remains unchanged. We continue to gather deposits in our legacy markets - Sandusky, Norwalk, Shelby, New Washington, and Urbana. We

put these deposits to work in these markets. Where we are unable to find loan opportunities we redirect our funds to our urban markets of Mayfield Heights, Fairlawn, Dublin, and Dayton where the
economic recovery has been more robust. This formula works and the results show in our continued bottom line growth. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="right"><I>(continued on
