Shareholder: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Enclosed (unless you have direct deposit) is your $0.06 per share dividend for May&nbsp;1, 2017. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our preliminary earnings for the first quarter of 2017 were $4,316,000 or $0.40 per diluted share available to common shareholders. This compares to earnings
for the first quarter of 2016 of $4,334,000 or $0.43 per diluted share available to common shareholders. This was a slight decrease of $18,000 in absolute earnings, but we also have 1,610,000 more shares outstanding as a result of our recent capital
offering. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Looking at the detail of the first quarter performance, net interest income was $12,892,000, up 5.4% from 2016. This was a combination of
interest income up 4.9% and interest expense down 2.2%. There was no provision for loan loss for first quarter of 2017, nor 2016. Noninterest income was down $122,000 or 2.3% for the first quarter compared to 2016. This was primarily the result of
decreases in service charge revenue and net gain on sale of loans. Checking account service charges decreased slightly as a result of increased interest rates creating increased earnings allowance that commercial customers can use to offset fees.
Gain on sale of loans revenue and mortgage closings were down slightly, as they typically are in the first quarter, but our mortgage pipeline remains strong. Noninterest expenses increased $595,000 for the first quarter 2017 compared to first
quarter 2016. This increase was primarily in Salaries and Benefits. This increase in Salaries and Benefits can be attributed to 2017 base salaries higher than 2016, additional production staffing, and healthcare related costs. We view the increased
expense from new positions as an investment in future added loan revenue. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Looking at the balance sheet, net loans closed the quarter at $1,061,940,000 or
7.1% greater than $991,370,000 at the end of March 2016. Net loans at March&nbsp;31, 2017, were 7.6% greater than December&nbsp;31, 2016 on an annualized basis. We are pleased with the level of loan growth, coupled with continued discipline to our
credit standards. We have recently invested salary dollars (described above) in additional lending personnel in several of our locations including our newest loan production office in Westlake, Ohio. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Deposits at the end of the first quarter were $1,311,453,000 up 2.5% from $1,279,780,000 at the end of first quarter 2016. We continue to focus on core
checking and savings accounts. This focus on noninterest-bearing checking and low-cost savings deposits continues to benefit us through decreasing interest expense. While there will eventually be pressure on interest costs as rates move up, we have
positioned ourselves well with the lowest cost products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Moving into 2017, we see a strong loan pipeline in both commercial and mortgage lending. Over
the last year we have made an investment in staffing our new loan production office in Westlake, Ohio, and have a lender in the Toledo, Ohio market. We have also strengthened our private banking operation with staff in Dublin, Ohio and Dayton, Ohio.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In February we completed our recent common stock offering, adding approximately $32,800,000 in capital to the company. This added capital will provide
the support for continued growth of the company. There is opportunity for organic growth in all of our markets and we continue to be positioned to evaluate any acquisition opportunities that arise. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In our dividend letter of May&nbsp;2, 2016, we noted &#147;your management team continues to travel and tell

the Civista story in the marketplace. Our institutional ownership has grown to 8%. Increasing this number should provide more activity and liquidity in our stock. That should result in a better
