Part I-Item 1 Business

General: Union Bankshares, Inc. (Union or the Company) is a two-bank holding
company whose subsidiaries are Citizens Savings Bank & Trust Co. (Citizens)
and Union Bank. It was incorporated in the State of Vermont in 1982. Citizens
Savings Bank and Trust Company was chartered under Vermont law in 1887 as a
State bank and is headquartered in St. Johnsbury, Vermont. Citizens became a
wholly owned subsidiary of Union on November 30, 1999 through a transaction
accounted for as a pooling of interests but kept its separate name and banking
franchise. Union Bank was organized and chartered as a State bank in 1891
and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Union in 1982 upon its formation.
Union and Union Bank are headquartered in Morrisville, Vermont.

Union has two definable segments that are Citizens Savings Bank & Trust Co.
and Union Bank which both generally operate in the same line of business,
commercial banking, and in the same geographic and economic environments in
Northern Vermont. Citizens Savings Bank & Trust Co. has 49 full time
equivalent employees while Union Bank has 98. Union, itself, does not have
any paid employees.

Union's income is derived principally from interest on loans and earnings
on other investments. Its primary expenses arise from interest paid on
deposits and borrowings and general overhead expenses. The consolidated
assets of Union have grown from $ 273 million to $ 337 million over the
last five years or 23.5 % while our total consolidated deposits have grown
from $ 239 million to $ 286 million or 19.4 % during that same period.
Please refer to our schedule of Selected Financial Data, which has been
restated for all periods for the pooling of interest acquisition of
Citizens, see Item 6 of this annual report for further details.

The deposits of both banks are insured by the Bank Insurance Fund of the
FDIC up to legal limits (generally $100,000 per depositor).

In addition to its commercial banking business, Citizens offers a full line
of personal trust services to its customers. Previously Union Bank operated
its own trust department, but those operations were transferred to Citizens
in late 2000. Assets held in fiduciary capacity by Citizens' trust department
are not included in Union's consolidated balance sheet for financial
reporting purposes other than trust cash on deposit.

Competition: Union and its two subsidiaries face substantial competition
for loans and deposits in their market area from local commercial banks,
savings banks, credit unions, and financial services affiliates of bank
holding companies, as well as from national financial service providers
such as mutual funds, brokerage houses, consumer finance companies and
internet banks. Union anticipates continued strong competition from such
financial institutions in the foreseeable future. Within Union's market
area are branches of several commercial and savings banks that are
substantially larger than Union. Both the subsidiary banks focus on their
community banking niche and on providing convenient hours and modes of
delivery to provide outstanding customer service. Union competes for
checking, savings, money market accounts and other deposits by offering
depositors competitive rates, personal service, local area expertise,
convenient locations and access, and an array of financial services and
products.

The competition in originating real estate and other loans comes
principally from commercial banks, mortgage banking companies and credit
unions. Union competes for loan originations primarily through the interest
rates and loan fees it charges, the types of loans it offers, and the
efficiency and quality of services it provides. In addition to residential
mortgage lending and municipal loans, Union also emphasizes commercial real
estate, construction, and both conventional and SBA commercial lending.
Factors that affect Union's ability to compete for loans include general
and local economic conditions, prevailing interest rates including "prime"
rate, and pricing volatility of the secondary mortgage markets. Union
attempts to promote an increased level of personal service and expertise
within the community to position itself as a lender to small to middle
market business and residential customers, which tend to be under-served by
larger institutions.

Union competes through Citizens for personal trust business with trust
companies, commercial banks having trust departments, investment advisory
firms, brokerage firms, mutual funds and insurance companies.

Management's strategy includes continued evaluation of changing market
needs and design and implementation of products and services to meet those
needs. The directors and management of Union intend to continue to offer
products and services that will allow Union to manage responsibly the
growth of its assets, while building and


<PAGE>  3


enhancing both shareholder value and both Citizens' and Union Bank's image
as premiere Vermont community banks.

The competitive environment for financial institutions has undergone
significant change in recent years and that trend is likely to continue in
light of changes in applicable law (see "Financial Services Modernization"
below) which permit the integration of the historically separate banking,
insurance and securities industries. Change is also occurring due to rapid
technological advances which increasingly permit the delivery of financial
products and services without the need for a physical presence in the
market area served and which also are likely to diminish the importance of
financial intermediaries, such as banks, in the transfer of funds between
parties.

Regulation and Supervision: As Vermont-chartered commercial banks, each
subsidiary is subject to regulation, examination, and supervision by the
Vermont Banking Department and the FDIC. Regular examinations of Union Bank
and Citizens by the Vermont Banking Department and the FDIC include
examination of the banks' financial condition and operations, including but
not limited to their capital adequacy, loan reserves, loans, investments,
earnings, liquidity, compliance with laws and regulations, record of
performance under the federal Community Reinvestment Act of 1997 ("CRA"),
and the performance of their management. In addition Union, as a bank
holding company, is subject to regulation, examination and supervision by
the Federal Reserve Board. The regulations of these authorities govern
certain of the operations of Union and its subsidiaries. The following
discussion summarizes the material aspects of various federal and state
banking laws and regulations that apply to Union, Citizens, and Union Bank:

Bank Holding Company Acquisitions and Activities. As a bank holding
company, Union is subject to supervision and regulation by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board") under
the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"). Under the
BHC Act, the activities of bank holding companies, such as Union, and those
of companies that they control, such as Union Bank and Citizens, or in
which they hold more than 5% of the voting stock, are limited to banking,
managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or performing
services for their subsidiaries, or certain activities that the Federal
Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking or
managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. As
described below, a bank holding company that has elected to become a
"financial holding company" under the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial
Modernization Act of 1999 ("Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act") may engage in certain
additional activities. Bank holding companies such as Union that have not
elected to become financial holding companies, are required to obtain the
prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board to engage in any new activity
or to acquire more than 5% of any class of voting stock of any bank or
other company.

The Federal Reserve Board has authority to issue cease and desist orders to
prevent or terminate unsafe or unsound banking practices or violations of
law or regulations and to assess civil money penalties against bank holding
companies and their subsidiaries and other affiliates. The Federal Reserve
Board also has the authority to remove officers, directors and other
institution-affiliated parties.

Financial Services Modernization. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act permits
eligible bank holding companies to elect to become financial holding
companies and thereby engage in a broader range of activities than is
permitted to bank holding companies generally. Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act, a financial holding company may engage in activities that are
"financial in nature," which includes securities underwriting, dealing and
market making, sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies, insurance
underwriting, merchant banking and additional activities that the Federal
Reserve Board, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury,
determines to be financial in nature, or incident or complementary to such
financial activities, provided that such activities do not pose a
substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or
the financial system generally. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act effectively
permits the integration, under a financial holding company umbrella, of
firms engaged in banking, insurance and securities activities, and preempts
state laws that purport to limit or prohibit such affiliations. No
regulatory approval is required for a financial holding company to acquire
a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in permitted
activities.

In order to become a financial holding company, all of the bank holding
company's bank subsidiaries must be well-capitalized and well-managed under
applicable regulatory guidelines, and each of such banks must have been
rated "Satisfactory" or better in its most recent evaluation under the
federal CRA. Once a bank holding company has


<PAGE>  4


elected to be treated as a financial holding company, it may face
significant consequences if it subsequently fails to meet one or more of
the criteria for eligibility. For example, it may be required to enter into
an agreement with the Federal Reserve Board imposing limitations on its
operations and requiring divestitures. In addition, the need to maintain
eligibility could hamper a financial holding company's ability to expand or
to acquire financial institutions that do not meet the required criteria.

As of March 15, 2002, Union has not elected to become a financial holding
company.

Source of Strength. Under Federal Reserve Board policy, bank holding
companies, such as Union, are expected to act as a source of financial
strength to their subsidiary banks, such as Union Bank and Citizens, and to
commit resources to support them. This support may be called for at times
when a bank holding company may not have the required resources to do so.

Interstate Banking. The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 permits bank holding companies to acquire banks
based outside their home states, generally without regard to whether the
state's law would permit the acquisition. The Act also authorizes banks to
merge across state lines thereby creating interstate branches. In addition,
the Act permits banks to acquire existing interstate branches (short of
merger) or to establish new interstate branches. States were given the
right, exercisable before June 1, 1997, to prohibit altogether or impose
certain limitations on, interstate mergers and the acquisition or
establishment of interstate branches. None of the states contiguous to
Vermont (New Hampshire, New York and Massachusetts) has in effect any
statute which would substantially impede the ability of a Vermont bank to
acquire or create interstate branches directly or through an interstate
merger. Similarly, Vermont law does not limit the ability of out-of-state
banks to acquire or create branches in Vermont. Although interstate banking
and branching may result in increased competitive pressures in the markets
in which Union operates, interstate branching may present competitive
opportunities for locally-owned and managed banks, such as Union Bank and
Citizens, that are familiar with the local markets and that emphasize
personal service and prompt, local decision-making.

Affiliate Restrictions. Bank holding companies and their affiliates are
subject to certain restrictions under the Federal Reserve Act in their
dealings with each other, such as in connection with extensions of credit,
transfers of assets, and purchase of services among affiliated parties.
Generally, loans or extensions of credit, investments or purchases of
assets by a subsidiary bank from a bank holding company or its affiliates
are limited to 10% of the bank's capital and surplus with respect to each
affiliate and to 20% in the aggregate for all affiliates, and borrowings
are also subject to certain collateral requirements. These transactions, as
well as other transactions between a subsidiary bank and its holding
company or other affiliates must generally be on arms-length terms, that
is, on terms comparable to those involving nonaffiliated companies.
Further, under the Federal Reserve Act and Federal Reserve Board
regulations, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited
from engaging in certain tie-in-arrangements in connection with extensions
of credit or furnishing of property or services to third parties. Union,
Union Bank and Citizens are subject to these restrictions in their
intercompany transactions.

Banks. The various laws and regulations applicable to Citizens and Union
that are administered by the FDIC and the Vermont Banking Commissioner
affect the banks' corporate practices, such as payment of dividends,
incurring of debt and acquisition of financial institutions and other
companies. These laws also affect their business practices, such as payment
of interest on deposits, the charging of interest on loans, privacy issues
and the location of offices. There are no outstanding regulatory orders
resulting from regulatory examinations of Union, Union Bank or Citizens.

Dividend Limitations. As a holding company, Union's ability to pay
dividends to its shareholders is largely dependent on the ability of its
subsidiaries to pay dividends to it. Payment of dividends by Vermont-
chartered banks, such as Union Bank and Citizens, is subject to applicable
state and federal laws. Under Vermont banking laws, a Vermont-chartered
bank may not authorize dividends or other distributions that reduce the
bank's capital below any required amount of capital required in the bank's
Certificate of General Good or under any capital or surplus standards
established by the Vermont Banking Commissioner. Union Bank and Citizens do
not have any capital restrictions in their Certificates of General Good
and, to date, the Vermont Banking Commissioner has not adopted capital or
surplus standards. Nevertheless, the capital standards established by the
FDIC, described below under "Capital Requirements," apply to both Union
Bank and Citizens, and the capital standards of the Federal Reserve Board
apply to Union on a consolidated basis. In addition, the Federal Reserve
Board, the FDIC and the


<PAGE>  5


Vermont Banking Commissioner are authorized under applicable federal and
state laws to prohibit payment of dividends that they determine would be an
unsafe or unsound practice. Payment of dividends that deplete the capital
of a bank or a bank holding company, or render it illiquid, could be found
to be an unsafe or unsound practice.

Capital Requirements. The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and other federal
banking regulators have issued substantially similar risk-based and
leverage capital guidelines for United States Banking organizations. Those
regulatory agencies are also authorized to require that a banking
organization maintain capital above the minimum levels, whether because of
its financial condition or actual or anticipated growth. The Federal
Reserve Board's risk-based capital guidelines define a three-tier capital
framework and specify three relevant capital ratios: Tier 1 Capital Ratio,
a Total Capital Ratio and a "Leverage Ratio." Tier 1 Capital consists of
common and qualifying preferred shareholders' equity, less certain
intangibles and other adjustments. The remainder (Tier 2 and Tier 3
Capital) consists of subordinate and other qualifying debt, preferred stock
that does not qualify as Tier 1 Capital, and the allowance for loan losses
up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.

The sum of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 Capital, less investments in
unconsolidated subsidiaries, represents qualifying "Total Capital," at
least 50% of which must consist of Tier 1 Capital. Risk-based capital
ratios are calculated by dividing Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital by risk-
weighted assets. Assets and off-balance sheet exposures are assigned to one
of four categories or risk weights, based primarily on relative credit
risk. The minimum Tier 1 Capital Ratio is 4% and the minimum Total Capital
Ratio is 8%. The Leverage Ratio is determined by dividing Tier 1 Capital by
adjusted average total assets. Although the minimum Leverage Ratio is 3%,
most banking organizations are required to maintain Leverage Ratios of at
least 1 to 2 percentage points above 3%.

Federal bank regulatory agencies require banking organizations that engage
in significant trading activity to calculate a capital charge for market
risk. Significant trading activity means trading activity of at least 10%
of total assets or $1 billion, whichever is smaller, calculated on a
consolidated basis for bank holding companies. Federal bank regulators may
apply the market risk measure to other bank holding companies, as the
agency deems necessary or appropriate for safe and sound banking practices.
Each agency may exclude organizations that it supervises that otherwise
meet the criteria under certain circumstances. The market risk charge will
be included in the calculation of an organization's risk-based capital
ratio. Neither Union, Union Bank, nor Citizens is currently subject to this
special capital charge.

Federal Reserve Board policy provides that banking organizations generally,
and, in particular, those that are experiencing internal growth or actively
making acquisitions, will be expected to maintain strong capital positions
substantially above the minimum supervisory levels, without significant
reliance on intangible assets, such as goodwill. Furthermore, the capital
guidelines indicate that the Federal Reserve Board will continue to
consider a "Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio" in evaluating proposals for
expansion or new activities. The Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio is
calculated by dividing a banking organization's Tier 1 Capital less all
intangible assets by its total consolidated quarterly average assets less
all intangible assets.

The Federal Reserve Board's capital adequacy guidelines generally provide
that bank holding companies with a ratio of intangible assets to tangible
Tier 1 Capital in excess of 25% will be subject to close scrutiny for
certain purposes, including the Federal Reserve Board's evaluation of
acquisition proposals. Union does not have a material amount of intangibles
in its capital base, nor was any intangible goodwill created as a result of
its acquisition of Citizens in 1999, which was accomplished through a merger
transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests.

Prompt Corrective Action.  At December 31, 2001, Union's consolidated Total
and Tier I Risk-Based Capital Ratios were 17.43% and 16.16%, respectively,
and its Leverage Capital Ratio was 11.06%, and is considered well-
capitalized under the above regulatory guidelines. In addition, both Union
Bank and Citizens are considered well-capitalized under such guidelines.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991
("FDICIA"), among other things, identifies five capital categories for
insured depository institutions (well capitalized, adequately capitalized,
undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically
undercapitalized) and requires the respective federal banking agencies to
implement systems for "prompt corrective action" for insured depository
institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. FDICIA imposes
progressively more restrictive constraints on operations, management and
capital distributions, depending on the category in which an institution is
classified. Failure to meet the capital


<PAGE>  6


guidelines could also subject a banking institution to capital raising
requirements. An "undercapitalized" bank must develop a capital restoration
plan and its parent holding company must guarantee that bank's compliance
with the plan. The liability of the parent holding company under any such
guarantee is limited to the lesser of 5% of the bank's assets at the time
it became undercapitalized or the amount needed to comply with the plan.
Furthermore, in the event of the bankruptcy of the parent holding company,
such guarantee would take priority over the parent's general unsecured
creditors. In addition, FDICIA requires the various federal banking
agencies to prescribe certain noncapital standards for safety and soundness
related generally to operations and management, asset quality and executive
compensation, and permits regulatory action against a financial institution
that does not meet such standards.

The various federal banking agencies have adopted substantially similar
regulations that define the five capital categories identified by FDICIA,
using the Total Capital, Tier 1 Ratio and the Leverage Ratio as the
relevant capital measures. Such regulations establish various degrees of
corrective action to be taken when an institution is considered
undercapitalized. Under the regulations, a "well capitalized" institution
must have a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6%, a total capital ratio of
at least 10% and a leverage ratio of at least 5% and not be subject to a
capital directive order. An "adequately capitalized" institution must have
a Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 4%, a total capital ratio of at least 8%
and a leverage ratio of at least 4%, or 3% in some cases.

Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). Union Bank and Citizens are subject to
the federal CRA, which requires banks to demonstrate their commitment to
serving the credit needs of low and moderate income residents of their
communities. Both banks participate in a variety of direct and indirect
lending programs and other investments for the benefit of the low and
moderate income residents in our communities. The FDIC conducts
examinations of insured banks' compliance with CRA requirements and rates
such institutions as "Outstanding," "Satisfactory," "Needs to Improve," and
"Substantial Non-Compliance." Failure of an institution to receive at least
a "Satisfactory" CRA rating could adversely affect its ability to undertake
certain activities, such as acquisitions of other financial institutions,
which require regulatory approval based, in part, on the institution's
record of CRA compliance. In addition, failure of a bank subsidiary to
receive at least a "Satisfactory" rating would disqualify a bank holding
company from eligibility to become or remain a financial holding company
under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. (See "Financial Services Modernization"
above.) At their last CRA compliance examinations by the FDIC, Union Bank
received a rating of "Outstanding" and Citizens received a rating of
"Satisfactory."

Deposit Insurance Premium Assessments. Under applicable federal laws and
regulations, deposit insurance premium assessments to the Bank Insurance
Fund ("BIF") and the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") are based
on a supervisory risk rating system, with the most favorably rated
institutions paying the lowest premiums. The deposits of Union Bank and
Citizens are insured under the BIF. As "well capitalized" institutions,
both banks are presently in the most favorable deposit insurance assessment
category, and pay the minimum deposit premium assessment.

FDICIA Cross-Guarantees. Under the cross-guarantee provisions of FDICIA, in
some circumstances in the event of a loss suffered or anticipated by the
FDIC-either as a result of a bank's insolvency or FDIC assistance provided
to a bank in danger of default-the FDIC may assess the other banks in the
same holding company family to recoup its losses to the deposit insurance
fund.

Brokered Deposits. The FDICIA restricts the ability of an FDIC-insured bank
to accept brokered deposits unless it is a well-capitalized institution
under FDICIA's prompt corrective action guidelines. Although eligible to do
so, neither Union Bank nor Citizens has accepted any brokered deposits.

Consumer Protection Laws. In connection with their lending activities, both
Union Bank and Citizens are subject to a variety of federal and state laws
designed to protect borrowers and to promote lending to various sectors of
the economy and population. In addition to the provisions of the CRA
(discussed above), Union Bank and Citizens are subject to, among other
laws, the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the federal Real Estate
Settlement Procedures Act, the federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the federal
and Vermont Equal Credit Opportunity Acts, and the federal and Vermont Fair
Credit Reporting Acts.

Both Union Bank and Citizens are subject to the provisions of Title V of
the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which require them to notify their consumer
customers of their information collection and sharing practices and
restrict


<PAGE>  7


those practices in certain respects. In addition, both banks are subject to
similar, but more restrictive, requirements of the Vermont Banking
Department. Generally those Vermont requirements prohibit the disclosure of
consumer information to nonaffiliated third parties without the express
written consent of the consumer, except for disclosures permitted under
specified regulatory exceptions.

The deposit taking activities of Union Bank and Citizens are subject to
various federal and state requirements, including those mandating uniform
disclosures to depositors with respect to rates of interest, fees and other
terms of consumer deposit accounts, and with respect to their policies on
the availability of deposited funds.

Bank Secrecy Act Compliance. Union Bank and Citizens are subject to federal
laws establishing certain record keeping, customer identification, and
reporting requirements with respect to large cash transactions, sales of
travelers checks and other monetary instruments, and the international
transfer of cash or monetary instruments. New provisions, designed to help
combat international terrorism, were added in 2001 to the Bank Secrecy Act
by the USA Patriot Act. These provisions impose due diligence standards on
banks in opening correspondent accounts of foreign off-shore banks and
banks in jurisdictions that have been found to fall significantly below
international anti-money laundering standards. In addition, U.S. banks are
prohibited from opening correspondent accounts for off-shore shell banks,
defined as banks that have no physical presence and that are not part of a
regulated and recognized banking company. The USA Patriot Act requires all
financial institutions to adopt money laundering programs. In addition, the
USA Patriot Act amended certain provisions of the federal Right to
Financial Privacy Act to facilitate the access of law enforcement to bank
customer records in connection with investigating international terrorism.

Part I-Item 2 Properties

As of December 31, 2001, Union's subsidiaries operated 12 community-banking
locations all of which are in Lamoille or Caledonia counties of Vermont.
Eight of these branch locations are Union Bank's and four are Citizens'.
Citizens opened a loan production office in Littleton, New Hampshire in May
of 2001. Together they also operate 24 automated teller machines (ATM's) in
northern Vermont and Citizens plans to install an ATM at its Littleton, New
Hampshire loan center later this year. The Company owns eight of its branch
locations and leases the other branches and certain ATM premises from third
parties under terms and conditions considered by management to be favorable
to the Company.

Additional information relating to the Company's properties is set forth in
Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements and incorporated herein by
reference.

Part I-Item 3 Legal Proceedings

There are no known pending legal proceedings to which Union or any of its
subsidiaries is a party, or to which any of their properties is subject,
other than ordinary litigation arising in the normal course of business
activities. Although the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to
such proceedings cannot be determined, in the opinion of management, based
upon the opinion of counsel, any such liability will not have a material
effect on the consolidated financial position of Union and its
subsidiaries.

Part I-Item 4 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There was no submission of matters to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter of 2001.

Part II-Item 5 Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related
        Stockholder Matters

                        INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


Board of Directors
Union Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Morrisville, Vermont


We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Union Bankshares, Inc.
and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and the related consolidated
statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999.  These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with U. S. generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Union Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31,
2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the
years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, in conformity with U. S. generally
accepted accounting principles.

                           UNION BANKSHARES, INC.
                            MORRISVILLE, VERMONT
                  DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN AND AGREEMENT

      THIS AGREEMENT is made effective the first day of _________, 199__ by
and between Union Bankshares, Inc. (hereinafter the "Company"), and its
subsidiary Union Bank (hereinafter "Subsidiary") with a principal office in
Morrisville in the County of Lamoille and State of Vermont (together
hereinafter the "Bank") and __________________ of _____________ in the
County of ____________ and State of Vermont (hereinafter called
"Executive").

      WHEREAS the Executive presently serves the Bank in the capacity of
director or officer in which capacity his services have significantly
contributed to the successful operation of the Bank, and

      WHEREAS, the Bank has determined that it is in the best interests of
the Bank to provide inducements to the Executive to continue his services
with the Bank, and

      WHEREAS, the parties wish to enter into an agreement relating to the
Executive's services to the Bank upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein, and

      WHEREAS, by this instrument the Bank has determined to amend and
supersede its prior existing nonqualified deferred compensation plan.

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and
undertakings hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable
consideration, IT IS AGREED:

      1.  The Plan.  The Bank establishes the Deferred Compensation Plan
and Agreement (hereinafter the "Plan" or "Agreement") for the benefit of
(i) participating members of the board of directors of the Company and the
Subsidiary; and (ii) participating officers of the Company and the
Subsidiary.  A participating Executive may elect to defer receipt of all or
part of his salary or his director's compensation and fees, as the case may
be, beginning with amounts earned in the first calendar quarter commencing
after the effective date of such election.  For purposes of the Plan,
"salary" shall mean the participating Executive's base salary or
compensation, including any bonuses or other special payments, for services
rendered to the Bank as an officer; and director's compensation and fees
shall mean any compensation or fees payable to a director for services
rendered to the Bank in that capacity, including any compensation or fees
payable for services as a member of any committee of the board or
directors.  This Agreement amends and supersedes the Bank's prior existing
nonqualified deferred compensation plan.

      2.  Election by Participating Executive.  An election to defer
receipt of salary or directors' compensation and fees shall be made in
writing and shall become effective upon filing with, and acceptance by, the
Bank.  The terms of such written election shall be as set forth on Exhibit
A attached hereto.  An election shall remain in effect unless the
participant terminates the election by a notice in writing filed with, and
accepted by, the Bank.  Any termination of an election shall be applicable
only respectively to salary or directors' compensations and fees earned
during the calendar quarters following date of filing with, and acceptance
by, the Bank, and shall not affect amounts previously deferred.

      3.  Benefit Date.  The Executive may elect in writing to terminate
the election to defer as set forth in Paragraph 2 hereof and to commence
receiving his deferred compensation benefit as hereinafter defined on the
first day of any calendar month following the month in which he attains age
Fifty-Five (55).

      4.  Deferred Compensation Benefit.  Beginning with the first day of
the month in which the Executive has designated by the election as set
forth in Paragraph 3 hereof (and on that date each year thereafter) or as
soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, the Bank will pay to the
Executive an annual benefit for the period and in the amounts set forth on
Exhibit B attached hereto.  The payment of the deferred compensation
benefits under this paragraph shall not in any manner disqualify the
Executive from receiving any benefits to which the Executive may be
entitled under any other pension, retirement, profit sharing or other
similar employee benefit plans arising out of the Executive's services or
employment with the Bank, nor is it intended to disqualify the Executive
from receiving payment of any social security benefit to which the
Executive may be entitled.

      5.  Death after Attaining Age 55.  In the event that the Executive
shall die after the commencement of the payments provided for in Paragraph
4 hereof, and before the total number of annual payments as therein
prescribed have been received (Exhibit B), the Bank shall pay the remainder
of said annual payments to the Executive's beneficiary as hereinafter
designated.  In the event that the Executive shall die before the
commencement of the payments provided for in Paragraph 4 hereof, the Bank
shall pay to the Executive's beneficiary as hereinafter designated an
annual benefit for the period and in the amounts set forth in Exhibit C
attached hereto.  In the event that there shall be no designated
beneficiary qualified to receive payments, the remaining computed value of
any said annual payments discounted at seven (7%) percent shall be paid in
one sum to the estate of the Executive.  In the event that there shall be
no designated beneficiary eligible to receive monthly payments at any time
after payments are commenced to a designated beneficiary, the remaining
commuted value of said payments discounted at seven (7%) percent shall be
paid in one sum to the estate of the Executive. "Remaining commuted value
of said payment discounted at 7%" as used in this paragraph and elsewhere
in this Agreement shall be defined as set forth on Exhibit E attached
hereto.

      6.  Death Before Attaining Age 55.  In the event that the Executive
shall die before attaining age 55 as herein provided, the Bank shall make
annual payments as in the amount specified and for a period as set forth in
Exhibit C attached hereto to the Executive's beneficiary hereinafter
designated.  In the event that there shall be no designated beneficiary
eligible to receive payments, the Bank shall pay the remaining computed
value of such payment discounted a seven (7%) percent in one sum to the
Executive's estate.  In the event that after commencement of annual
payments to a designated beneficiary there shall at any time be no
designated beneficiary eligible to receive monthly payments, the remaining
commuted value of such payments designated at seven (7%) percent shall be
paid in one sum to the estate of the Executive.

      7.  Termination of Relationship.  Notwithstanding any paragraph in
the Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Executive's
relationship with the Bank as a director or officer shall terminate for any
reason except for death as set forth in Paragraph 6, prior to his attaining
age Fifty-Five (55), or in the event the Executive shall commit suicide
(suicide shall be determined by any policy or the life of the Executive) at
any time within a period of two (2) years after the later of the date of
signing the Agreement or the effective date of any life insurance policy
owned by the Bank covering the Executive, the Executive shall then be
entitled to receive only the amounts as set forth on Exhibit C-1 attached
hereto (and not as otherwise provided under this Agreement).  The payment
set forth on Exhibit D shall be paid in a lump sum as soon as practicable
after the event of termination or suicide.  In the event that the Executive
shall die prior to payment of all benefits due under Exhibit C-1, such
remaining unpaid benefits set forth on Exhibit C-1 shall be paid to the
Executive's beneficiary hereinafter designated.  In the event that there
shall at any time be no designated beneficiary eligible to receive the
payments set forth on Exhibit C-1, the remaining payments shall be paid in
a lump sum of the estate of the Executive.

      8.  Life Insurance.  The Bank may, but shall not be required to,
obtain life insurance coverage on the life on the Executive in order to
provide funds to make some or all of the benefit payments required by this
Agreement.  Any such life insurance coverage shall be the sole property of
the Bank and the Executive shall have no interest whatever in said coverage
by way of security or assurance that the payments provided for in this
agreement shall be made.  Bank has relied, in entering into this Agreement,
on information supplied by the Executive to the Bank (or to insurer
designated by the Bank to provide the Bank with sufficient funds to satisfy
its obligations under the Agreement).  The Executive warrants that all
information supplied is accurate and complete in all material respects.  In
the event that the Executive makes any material misrepresentations or
omissions in the information and Bank is unable to realize on the life
insurance coverage on the life of the Executive then no payments shall be
due and payable by the Bank to the Executive, his estate, or to his
designated beneficiary hereunder.

      9.  Inalienability.  Neither the Executive nor any designated
beneficiary hereunder shall have any right to anticipate any payments to be
made hereunder or to sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise charge any
of the payments to be made hereunder and the Bank shall not be answerable
to any claim, demand or order as a result of any such alienation,
assignment or transfer.

      10.  Assignability.  All of the rights, privileges and benefits
hereunder shall be personal to the Executive (or the Executive's estate)
and any designated beneficiary or such Executive and shall not be
assignable or transferable to any other persons.  The obligations hereunder
and contained herein shall survive and shall be binding upon the successors
in effect and assigns of the Bank including, but not limited to, any sale,
transfer or other disposition of the stock or assets of the Bank.

      11.  Not An Employment Contract.  This Agreement shall not be
construed as an employment contract between the Bank and the Executive,
shall not give the Executive any rights to continued employment by the Bank
or the right to continue as a director or officer of the Bank, and it shall
not in any manner restrict the right of the Bank acting through its Board
of Directors to terminate its relationship with the Executive at any time
subject, however, to the provision of Paragraph 7.

      12.  Amendment or Revocation.  This Agreement may be amended or
revoked at any time during the lifetime of the Executive only by an
instrument in writing executed by both parties with the same formalities as
this Agreement.

      13.  Required Action.  Any required action of the Bank shall be by
resolution of a simple majority of the board of directors of the Bank.

      14.  Variation in Pronouns.  All pronouns and any variations thereof
refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as the
identity of the person or persons may require.

      15.  Notice.  Any notice to be given hereunder shall be in writing
and shall be deemed given when delivered to, when deposited in the United
States mails, postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail with return
receipt requests, addressed as follows:

      If to the Bank:       Union Bank
                            PO Box 667
                            Morrisville, VT 05661

      If to the Executive:  _______________________
                            _______________________
                            _______________________

      16.  Designation of Beneficiary.  The designation of beneficiary by
the Executive shall be as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.

      17.  Tax Effect.  It is intended that this Agreement represents a
mere contractual  obligation for the Executive to receive a benefit from
the Bank at a later date (pursuant to the Agreement), and shall not result
in actual or constructive receipt of income or economic benefit to the
Executive and shall not be subject to tax until the benefit is actually
paid to the Executive pursuant to the Agreement.  This Agreement
constitutes a nonqualified deferred compensation plan for tax purposes.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day
and year first above written.

      1)    If more than one beneficiary is designated to receive payments
            jointly or in common with any other beneficiary, the word
            beneficiary under the designation and under the agreement shall
            be construed to include such beneficiaries jointly or in
            common.

      2)    If at any time a designated individual beneficiary in prior
            preferred order or designation shall die, the annual payments

            order unless the estate of the prior designated beneficiary
            shall be indicated.

      3)    If two or more individuals are designated to receive annual
            payments as beneficiaries either in common or jointly the
            annual payments shall be made equally to each individual
            beneficiary unless otherwise designated.   If two or more
            beneficiary are designated to receive annual payments as
            members of a described class, each shall receive an equal
            portion of such annual payments unless otherwise designated.
            If two or more persons are designated to receive annual
            payments either in common, jointly and an individual shall die,
            the payments shall be made equally to the remaining individuals
            or in whole to the remaining individual unless otherwise

            of the class or in whole to the remaining member unless
            otherwise designated.

      4)    If any annual payments are designated to be made to a trust or
            trusts, the bank shall not be responsible or liable to see to
            the application of the payments by any Trustee and the Bank may
            accept the receipt of any trustee designated hereunder.

Union Bankshares, Inc., is a bank holding company consisting of two
community banks whose employees, officers and boards live, work and
recreate in the areas the banks serve. Those connections help to sustain a
time-tested community approach to banking through a powerful commitment to
customer service and an equally firm commitment to meeting the financial
needs of the communities they serve. Our approach has proven to be a
successful alternative to its larger competitors in the financial services
arena.

                                                      Stowe Performing Arts

Every summer, music fills the Trapp Family Lodge concert meadow for Stowe
Performing Arts' "Music in the Meadow" series. For over 15 years Union Bank
has proudly sponsored these concerts, which bring over 6,500 people to the
region.
      Not only do the summer concerts help support the arts in the Lamoille
Valley region, but the weekly musical celebrations bring economic vitality
to Stowe and surrounding towns.
      "It's fair to say that the traveling public now sees the Stowe region
as a musical destination in the summer, and the combination of Stowe
Performing Arts and the International Music Festival at Stowe are largely
responsible for that," says Johannes von Trapp, president of Trapp Family
Lodge in Stowe. "Without the corporate support, these types of events would
be dead."
      Lynn Paparella, Stowe Performing Art's managing director, concurs:
"Union Bank recognizes that the arts are essential in a healthy community,
and its long-standing and generous support of Stowe Performing Arts
demonstrates its concern for this community and this organization."

                                                    St. Johnsbury Athenaeum

      Citizens Savings Bank and Trust Company supported the St. Johnsbury
Athenaeum's Landmark and Legacy Capital Campaign to address many
renovations needed at the town's only library and art gallery. Designated
as a National Historic Landmark, the Athenaeum is one of only 13 national
historic landmarks in Vermont and only one of 10 libraries with that
distinction nationwide.
      The 130-year-old building is considered a treasure in the St.
Johnsbury community not only for its library but also for the beauty of its
distinguished art collection.

                             -------------------

"THANKS TO THE GENEROUS SUPPORT OF THE CITIZENS BANK, THE ATHENAEUM IS ABLE
TO FULFILL ITS MISSION TO PROMOTE LIFE-LONG LEARNING THROUGH ART,
LITERATURE AND INFORMATION SERVICES, AND TO PRESERVE ITS NATIONAL HISTORIC
LANDMARK BUILDING, COLLECTIONS AND FURNISHINGS. WITH THE HELP OF THE
CITIZENS BANK, MAJOR EXTERIOR RESTORATION HAS BEEN COMPLETED. IT'S A GRAND
COLLABORATION OF A BUSINESS AND A NON-PROFIT WORKING TOGETHER FOR THE
BENEFIT OF THE COMMUNITY."

                   LISA VON KANN, LIBRARY DIRECTOR, ST. JOHNSBURY ATHENAEUM

"THE UNION BANK IS INCREDIBLE IN ITS SUPPORT OF OUR COUNTY PROGRAMS.
THROUGH BANK EMPLOYEE VOLUNTEERS TO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, THE BANK IS
ALWAYS THERE WHEN WE NEED THEM."

EMPLOYEES HELP BRING PARK BACK TO LIFE
In St. Johnsbury, staff at the Citizens Bank share in the same community-
minded spirit. The bank took the lead in creating and landscaping a flower
garden and "green space" as a gateway to Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. This
historic park, in dire need of refurbishment, was rededicated in the summer
of 2001 and boasts gardens, a fountain and a welcome kiosk for out-of-town
visitors. "This park project," says Michael Welch, town manager in St.
Johnsbury, "will always remind me that there are a lot of wonderful people,
especially the employees at the Citizens Bank, doing some tremendous things
in our town." Pictured at the park's dedication are Jerry Santerre, Barb
Olden, Tracy Verge, Lucille Towle and Tracey Holbrook.

Lamoille Home Health and Hospice
      The non-profit Lamoille Home Health and Hospice brings quality home
medical care to countless folks throughout Lamoille County. Union Bank
supports this organization through direct assistance to services from
prenatal care to care for the terminally ill.
      "The Union Bank is full of community-minded people," says Ann
Mallett, R.N. and Executive Director of Lamoille Home Health and Hospice.
"Whether it's a visit by one of our therapists, a flu clinic, or
bereavement services, the Union Bank's support helps make it all happen."

SAVE FOR SUCCESS

[PHOTO]

A parent volunteer and other students watch as Dylan Zukswert makes a
deposit into his Save for Success program account at Morrisville Elementary
School.

In 1995 the Union Bank, local schools and parent volunteers teamed up to
help area children Save for Success -- literally! The Save for Success
program helps youths develop the life-long skill of saving.
      Kid-friendly savings accounts -- the bank opens each young saver's
account with a $1 deposit -- enables kids to set saving goals, create the
habit of saving, and develop responsibility. Today, over 2,000 children
participate in the program.
      "Without Save for Success," explains Michele Walker, the program
coordinator, "there would be a lot of kids who would not be developing
these lifelong skills."
      Participating schools host a weekly banking day where students,
assisted by adult volunteers, can make deposits to their savings accounts
in any amount. Banking days, usually held before school, do not interfere
with instructional hours.
      Besides the savings aspect, Save for Success features an extensive
educational component. Children learn how to read a bank statement, balance
a checking account, manage their own money, and apply for mock loans.
      Walker, who does money-management presentations at area elementary,
middle and high schools throughout the year, has also created a Small
Savers CD. They work like regular CDs, but with a lower minimum deposit
requirement of $200.
      "Savings is a learned skill, and Union Bank is in this for the long
haul," says Walker.
      Citizens Bank is in the process of introducing its own Save for
Success program.

ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF TECHNOLOGY

NetTeller(TM) & bill paying online

Just as the assembly line revolutionized American manufacturing, technology
- -- particularly the Internet -- is revolutionizing banking. There's never
been a more convenient, fast or easy way to bank.
      The Citizens Bank's and Union Bank's Internet banking product
NetTeller(TM) allows customers to view account balances, transfer funds,
view cleared transactions, make loan payments and more from the comfort of
home or office -- 24/7. All one needs is a connection to the Internet.
      For the banks, NetTeller(TM) meets the needs of a different market
base while enhancing the banks' already high customer service quotient. It
allows us to increase customer options and meet many customer needs more
quickly -- any time of the day or night -- without compromising service or
impacting the bottom line.
      "One month we had 18,000 NetTeller(TM) and Express Telebanking(TM)
transactions," explains Rhonda Bennett, a Vice President at Union Bank.
"That makes a huge difference."
      Senior Vice President David Silverman echoes those sentiments: "The
goal is to grow the bank without growing overhead."
      When the ability to pay bills via the Internet debuts in 2002,
customers will enjoy the added service and convenience of writing online
checks to pay bills. Customers can build a unique personal payee list
online and schedule payments to be made one time in the future or on a
recurring schedule. The benefits to the bank are enormous as well, as the
cost per electronic transaction is just a fraction of a cent compared to
paper checks. Both Citizens Bank and Union Bank will feature this online
bill-paying service.

                           Union Bankshares, Inc.
                        Electronic Transactions, 2001

Express Telebanking(TM) & Xpress Phone Banking

      For customers without an Internet connection, Union Bank's Express
Telebanking(TM) service and Citizens Bank's Xpress Phone Banking(TM)
service provide account access via any touch-tone telephone. Both business
and retail customers can transfer funds, check account balances or hear
current interest rates.

ATM Card

      ATM cards issued by us give customers access to cash, the ability to
make deposits, transfer funds between accounts, and make balance inquires
at most of our ATMs. We are members of the Vermont Independent Network
Affiliation (VINA), which gives customers access to free services at nearly
70 locations across the state.

MasterMoney(TM) Card

      Featuring all of the advantages of an ATM card, the banks also offer
the MasterMoney(TM) card, which provides customers with the benefits of a
credit card, without the interest charges. Purchases are automatically
debited from checking accounts, providing convenience to the customer and
cost-savings to the banks.

                             -------------------

"Electronic avenues to access customer accounts can lead to substantial
deposit growth without adding or changing staffing needs."

WHAT'S NEW IN 2001 & 2002

[PHOTO]

                                                    Union Bank branches out
      Union Bank is moving into Franklin County. With eight offices in
Lamoille County and Hardwick, the neighboring town of Fairfax is a logical
next step for expansion.
      "Fairfax is about 10 miles from the Jeffersonville branch, is a fast-
growing community and until now there's been no bank in town," explains
Steve Kendall, manager of the Fairfax branch.
      Besides Steve -- a customer service representative, two tellers -- and
a part-time teller will staff the office. Located on Route 104, the full-
service branch will also feature a drive-up window and ATM.
      Kendall feels Fairfax residents -- and those in neighboring towns
such as Westford and Georgia -- will be well served by the Union Bank
philosophy.  "We're not like big banks. They're square peg, square hole --
one size fits all. This is a bank that remembers it's still in business for
the customer."
      An April 2002 opening is planned.

MERCHANT SERVICES, HOMETOWN TRUST

Merchant Services expands
While many banks have discontinued credit card transaction processing
services, we have placed significant emphasis on providing this necessary
service to our business customers.
      Under the banner of Merchant Services, Stacey L.B. Chase at Union
Bank and Lucille Towle at Citizens Bank provide their customers with
personalized credit card processing services.
      "Rather than walking a customer through this process over the phone,
we prefer to do this in person to develop a relationship and build customer
loyalty," says Chase. "That is very important to us and I think we do it
well."
      Jerry Rowe, President of Citizens Bank, says, "In addition to
providing a steadily growing source of non-interest income to the banks,
our personal service in this area helps us to be a total banking solution
for our business clients."
      Credit card sales the banks will process for their customers are
expected to exceed $70 million in 2002. We currently serve over 600
business clients.

HomeTown Trust keeps pace with investment trends

[PHOTO]

While not a new service, managing customers' investments remains a
priority. While many banks -- large and small -- provide similar financial
planning services, our financial planners take customer service to a higher
level.
      HomeTown Trust, a division of Citizens Bank, provides investment
management, trust accounts, estate settlement, retirement accounts and
custody services at both banks.
      "We go out of our way to provide the best service possible," says Deb
Partlow, Certified Financial Planner and Trust officer. "I work between
both banks and will meet with clients just about anywhere at anytime; we
make this service as flexible as possible for the client."
      Preservation of purchasing power and the ultimate growth of assets
over a period of time are the primary investment goals of HomeTown Trust.
The investment division adheres to a conservative investment policy in both
the purchase of financial assets and in managing a client's investment
portfolio. In this age of mega-mergers, it's comforting to know that
clients can deal with an organization that is operated with local interests
in mind.

UNION BANKSHARES, INC.

To our shareholders

                                                             March 29, 2002

This year's annual report once again contains important financial
statements, footnotes and required information for our shareholders. In
addition, we have included a few pictures, charts and information that
tells you a little about some of the staff's responsibilities. Both Union
Bank and Citizens Bank are "community banks" and, as such, our employees
devote considerable time and effort assisting the communities we serve to
grow and prosper. These activities help us gain a better understanding of
where our resources should be applied to continue the growth of your
company.
      Any discussion about financial results in 2001 should probably begin
with a comment about interest rates. During the year the "Prime Rate"
dropped from 9.5% in January to 4.75% in December. This decrease (50%)
reduced the prime rate to a 40-year low and was the result of actions taken
by the Federal Reserve in anticipation of a recession.
      The decline in interest rates had a negative effect on our net
interest margin, but also fed a surge in refinancing and new loan requests.
Loans outstanding at year-end increased $26 million (11.6%), which kept our
lending and support staff on their toes all year.
      Deposits also increased $26 million (10.4%) due to natural growth and
to some extent a shift from the equities markets to bank deposits by some
investors. Total assets grew 11.2% and capital, as a percentage of assets,
exceeded 11% at year-end.
      Electronic banking continues to grow in popularity as two more ATMs
were added to our network this past year. In addition, Citizens will be
installing a full-service ATM at its Littleton, N.H., loan center sometime
this spring. This office has had good acceptance and is contributing to our
growth in loans. In 2002 we will be introducing electronic bill pay and
cash management banking products as well as marketing our current line of
ATM, Internet and telephone access products.
      Union's newest full-service branch located on Route 104 in Fairfax is
scheduled to open in mid-April. The staff has been selected and looks
forward to making a substantial impact in an area that we believe is under
served by the banking community. Clearly, for a community bank to continue
to grow, it must offer service delivery channels for those wishing
conventional banking access as well as electronic banking options.
      In addition to new products and new facilities in 2002, we are
continuing to bring the cultures and operations of the two banks together.
Although certain aspects, such as our commitment to

                        -------------------

DEPOSITS ALSO INCREASED $26 MILLION (10.4%) DUE TO NATURAL GROWTH AND TO
SOME EXTENT A SHIFT FROM THE EQUITIES MARKETS TO BANK DEPOSITS BY SOME
INVESTORS. TOTAL ASSETS GREW 11.2% AND CAPITAL, AS A PERCENTAGE OF ASSETS,
EXCEEDED 11% AT YEAR-END.

training, are on-going, the majority of the backroom consolidation of the
two banks is scheduled to be completed this summer, enabling Citizens to
focus further on developing its market share.
      In the proxy statement you will notice the board is recommending John
H. Steel of Stowe as a director. Mr. Steel has been a resident of Stowe for
many years, owns a successful residential construction company, and is very
active within the community. He has served on the Board of Union Bank for
over a year and provides good insight on this important part of our market
area.
      This past year was one of challenge and growth. We would like, once
again, to acknowledge the dedication and hard work of our employees. They
are an integral part of what makes us
successful community banks. Our loyal customers and shareholders are also
valued components of our success and we appreciate their business and
support.

MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY

      The management of Union Bankshares, Inc. is responsible for the
integrity and objectivity of the information and representations in this
annual report, including the consolidated financial statements. These
statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America using informed estimates
where appropriate, to reflect the Company's financial condition, results of
operations, and cash flows. The information in other sections of the annual
report is consistent with these statements.

      The Company's Board of Directors has oversight responsibilities for
determining that management has fulfilled its obligation in the preparation
of the financial statements and in the ongoing examination of the Company's
established internal control structure over financial reporting. The Audit
Committee, which consists solely of outside directors and which reports
directly to the Board of Directors, meets regularly with management, Urbach
Kahn & Werlin LLP, Certified Public Accountants and the Company's internal
auditor to discuss accounting, auditing and reporting matters. To ensure
auditor independence, both Urbach Kahn & Werlin LLP and the internal
auditor have unrestricted access to the Audit Committee.

      The financial statements have been audited by Urbach Kahn & Werlin
LLP, whose report appears on the next page. The auditors provide an
objective, independent review as to management's discharge of its
responsibilities insofar as they relate to the fairness of the Company's
reported financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Their
audit includes procedures believed by them to provide reasonable assurance
that the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
DECEMBER 31, 2001

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Union Bankshares, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Union
Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001, and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audit. The consolidated financial statements of Union Bankshares, Inc. and
Subsidiaries for December 31, 2000 and 1999, were audited by other auditors
whose report dated January 12, 2000, expressed an unqualified opinion on
those statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Union
Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies of Union Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the
"Company") are in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting
principles and general practices within the banking industry. The following
is a description of the more significant policies.

Basis of presentation and consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Union
Bankshares, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Union Bank ("Union"),
and Citizens Savings Bank and Trust Company ("Citizens"). All financial
information has been restated historically for the acquisition of Citizens
accounted for as pooling of interests as described in Note 19. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Nature of operations

The Company provides a variety of financial services to individuals and
corporate customers through its branches, ATM's, telebanking, and Internet
Banking systems in northern Vermont and New Hampshire which encompasses
primarily retail consumers, small businesses, agriculture, and the tourism
industry. The Company's primary deposit products are checking, savings,
money market accounts, and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending
products are commercial, real estate, municipal, and consumer loans.

Concentration of risk

The Company's operations are affected by various risk factors, including
interest-rate risk, credit risk, and risk from geographic concentration of
lending activities. Management attempts to manage interest rate risk
through various asset/liability management techniques designed to match
maturities of assets and liabilities. Loan policies and administration are
designed to provide assurance that loans will only be granted to credit-
worthy borrowers, although credit losses are expected to occur because of
subjective factors and factors beyond the control of the Company. Although
the Company has a diversified loan portfolio and economic conditions are
relatively stable, most of its lending activities are conducted within the
geographic area where it is located. As a result, the Company and its
borrowers may be especially vulnerable to the consequences of changes in
the local economy. Note 4 discusses the types of securities that the Bank
invests in. Note 5 discusses the types of lending which the Bank engages
in. In addition, a substantial portion of the Company's loans are secured
by real estate and/or are SBA guaranteed.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.
S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and 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. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to
significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses
on loans and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with
foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans and deferred tax assets. The
amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated.

Presentation of cash flows

For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows,
cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, amounts due from banks
(including cash items in process of clearing), federal funds sold
(generally purchased and sold for one day periods), and overnight deposits.

Trust assets

Assets of the Trust Department, other than trust cash on deposit, are not
included in these consolidated financial statements because they are not
assets of the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Investment securities

Investment securities purchased and held primarily for resale in the near
future are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value
with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Debt securities the
Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are
classified as held to maturity and carried at cost, adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of discounts using methods
approximating the interest method. Debt and equity securities not
classified as either held-to-maturity or trading are classified as
available-for-sale. Investments classified as available-for-sale are
carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale
securities are reported as a net amount in other comprehensive income, net
of tax and reclassification adjustment. Declines in the fair value of held-
to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are
deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized
losses. The specific identification method is used to determine realized
gains and losses on sales of securities available-for-sale.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock

As members of the Federal Home Loan Bank, Union and Citizens are required
to invest in $100 par value stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank. The stock
is nonmarketable, and when redeemed, they would receive from the Federal
Home Loan Bank an amount equal to the par value of the stock.

Loans held for sale

Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried
at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate. All sales
are made without recourse. Net unrealized losses are recognized through a
valuation allowance by charges to income.

Loans

Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the
foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their
unpaid principal adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan
losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized
premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

Loan interest income is accrued daily on outstanding balances. The accrual
of interest is discontinued when a loan is specifically determined to be
impaired or management believes, after considering collection efforts and
other factors, that the borrowers financial condition is such that
collection of interest is doubtful. Any unpaid interest previously accrued
on those loans is reversed from income. Interest income generally is not
recognized on specific impaired loans unless the likelihood of further loss
is remote. Interest payments received on such loans are generally applied
as a reduction of the loan principal balance. Interest income on other
nonaccrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments
received.

Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination
costs are being deferred and the net amount amortized as an adjustment of
the related loan's yield using methods that approximate the interest
method. The Company is generally amortizing these amounts over the
contractual life.

Allowance for loan losses

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which, in
management's judgment, is adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the
loan portfolio. The amount of the allowance is based on management's
periodic evaluation of the collectibility of the loan portfolio, including
the nature of the portfolio, credit concentrations, trends in historical
loss experience, specific impaired loans, and economic conditions.
Allowances for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral
values or the present value of estimated cash flows. The allowance is
increased by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense, and
reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Premises and equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method over their
estimated useful lives. The cost of assets sold or otherwise disposed of
and the related allowance for depreciation is eliminated from the accounts
and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in the income statement.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to current expense as incurred and the
cost of major renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Other real estate owned

Real estate properties acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are
to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value at the date of
foreclosure establishing a new carrying basis. After foreclosure,
valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate is
carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation are
included in other income and expenses.

Mortgage servicing

Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired
through purchase or sale of financial assets. Capitalized servicing rights
are reported in other assets and are amortized into noninterest expense in
proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing
income of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated
for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to
amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights by
predominant characteristics, such as interest rates and terms. Fair value
is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics,
when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based
assumptions. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an
individual stratum, to the extent that fair value is less than the
capitalized amount for the stratum.

Pension plans

Union maintains a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering
all eligible employees who meet certain service requirements. Union also
has a contributory 401(k) pension plan covering all employees who meet
certain service requirements. This plan is voluntary, and in 2001, 2000,
and 1999, Union contributed fifty cents for every dollar contributed by
participants, up to six percent of each participant's salary.

Citizens has a contributory 401(k) pension plan covering all employees who
meet certain age and service requirements. The plan is voluntary, and
Citizens contributes fifty cents for every dollar contributed by
participants, up to six percent of each participant's salary.

Pension costs are charged to pension and other employee benefits expense
and are funded as accrued.

Advertising costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.

Earnings per common share

Earnings per common share are computed based on the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, retroactively
adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, and stock issues relating to
the acquisition of Citizens in a merger accounted for as a pooling of
interests as described in Note 19 and reduced for shares held in treasury.
The weighted average shares outstanding were 3,030,973, 3,029,627, and
3,028,457 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999,
respectively.

UNION BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Income taxes

The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability method.
Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for
the temporary differences between the accounting basis and the tax basis of
the Company's assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in
effect when the amounts related to such temporary differences are realized
or settled. Adjustments to the Company's deferred tax assets are recognized
as deferred income tax expense or benefit based on management's judgment
relating to the realizability of such assets.

Off-balance-sheet financial instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off
balance sheet financial instrument arrangements consisting of commitments
to extend credit, commitments under credit card arrangements, commercial
letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments
are recorded in the financial statements when they become payable.

Fair values of financial instruments

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 cash equivalents approximate those assets'
      fair values.

       Investment securities and interest bearing deposits: Fair values for
       investment securities and interest bearing deposits 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 or discounted present values of cash flows.

      Federal Home Loan Bank stock: The carrying amount of this stock
      approximates its fair value.

      Loans and loans held for sale: For variable-rate loans that reprice
      frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values
      are based on carrying amounts. The fair values for other loans (for
      example, fixed-rate residential, commercial real estate, and rental
      property mortgage loans, and commercial and industrial loans) are
      estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest
      rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to
      borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates
      include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk
      characteristics. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet
      for loans that are held for sale approximate their fair market
      values. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted
      cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.

      Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (for example,
      checking and savings accounts) are, by definition, equal to the
      amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their
      carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable rate certificates
      of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. The
      fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit and borrowed funds
      are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies
      interest rates currently being offered on certificates and debt to a
      schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits
      and debt.

      Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest
      approximates their fair values.

      Borrowed funds: The fair values of the Company's long term debt are
      estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on interest rates
      currently being offered on similar debt instruments.

      Other liabilities: Commitments to extend credit were evaluated and
      fair value was estimated using the fees currently charged to enter
      into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of
      the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the
      counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also
      considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and
      the committed rates.

Comprehensive income

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses,
gains, and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in
assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-
for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity
section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are
components of comprehensive income.

The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects at
December 31 are as follows:

Stock option plan

The Company accounts for its stock option plan in accordance with the
provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. As
such, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant only if the
current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation", permits entities to recognize as expense
over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the
date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue
to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net
income disclosures for employee stock-based awards made in 1995 and future
years as if the fair value based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been
applied. The Company has elected to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No.
25 and provide the pro forma disclosures of SFAS No. 123. See Note 18.

Transfers of financial assets

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over
the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed
to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company,
(2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it
from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred
assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the
transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their
maturity.

Segment reporting

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," establishes standards relative to public companies for the
reporting of certain information about operating segments within their
financial statements. Management has determined that the Company has two
reportable segments as defined within the SFAS No. 131. These segments are
disclosed in Note 20 of the financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as
amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging
activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivative as either
assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those derivatives at
fair value. The accounting for the changes in fair value of the derivative
financial instrument depends on the intended use and whether it qualifies
for hedge accounting. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not materially
impact the financial position or results of operations of the Company, as
the Company does not utilize derivative instruments in its operations.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 supercedes APB Opinion No. 16, "Business
Combinations," and requires all business combinations to be accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting, thus eliminating the pooling of
interests method of accounting. SFAS No. 141 did not change many of the
provisions of APB Opinion No. 16 related to the application of purchase
method. However, SFAS No. 141 does specify criteria for recognizing
intangible assets separate from goodwill and requires additional
disclosures regarding business combinations. SFAS No. 141 is effective for
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Management is
currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 141 on the Company's financial
statements but does not anticipate it will have a material impact.

SFAS No. 142 requires acquired intangible assets (other than goodwill) to
be amortized over their useful economic life, while goodwill and any
acquired intangible assets with indefinite useful economic life would not
be amortized, but would be reviewed for impairment on an annual basis based
upon guidelines specified by SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires
additional disclosures pertaining to goodwill and intangible assets. The
provisions of SFAS No. 142 are required to be adopted starting with fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management is currently evaluating
the impact of SFAS No. 142 on the Company's financial statements but does
not anticipate it will have a material impact.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 addresses
financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-
lived assets. SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121 "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed
Of," but retains the basic recognition and measurement model for assets
held for use and held for sale. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 are required
to be adopted starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.
Management is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on the
Company's financial statements but does not anticipate it will have a
material impact.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the 2000 and 1999 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Note 2.  Restrictions on Cash and Due From Banks

Expected long-term rate of return of plan assets     7.25%     7.25%
</TABLE>

Contributions to the plan are invested in diversified portfolios, mainly
corporate stocks and bonds.

Contributions to Union's defined contribution 401(k) plan, including
employer matching amounts, are at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Employer contributions to the plan were $71,260, $67,440, and $65,785 for
2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

Additionally, the Company and Union have a non-qualified Deferred
Compensation Plan for Directors and certain key officers. Under the plan,
compensation may be deferred that would otherwise be currently payable.
Deferrals are made to an uninsured interest bearing account and are payable
upon attainment of a certain age or death over a 15 year period. The
Company and Union have purchased life insurance contracts for each
participant in order to fund these benefits. The benefits accrued under
this plan aggregated $1,423,930 and $1,541,417 at December 31, 2001 and
2000, respectively, and is included in the financial statement caption
"Accrued expenses and other liabilities". The cash surrender value of the
life insurance policies purchased to fund these plans aggregated $1,333,269
and $1,230,291 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. These amounts
are included in the financial statement caption "Other assets". The annual
net cost of the plan is immaterial to the operations of the Company.

Citizens maintains separately a 401(k) plan and a discretionary profit
sharing plan. The 401(k) plan covers all employees meeting certain
eligibility requirements. Employees are permitted to contribute any amount,
up to 10% of their compensation, to the 401(k) plan. Citizens makes
matching contributions up to 6% of an employee's compensation. Matching
contributions to this plan were $25,381, $30,800, and $37,178 for 2001,
2000, and 1999, respectively.

Contributions to the profit sharing plan are at the discretion of Citizens'
Board of Directors. Contributions to this plan were $89,540, $66,384, and
$42,003 for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Note 14.  Financial Instruments With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its
customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates.
These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby
letters of credit, interest rate caps and floors written on adjustable rate
loans, and commitments to sell loans. Such instruments involve, to varying
degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those
instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular
classes of financial instruments.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit
and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional
amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in
making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-
sheet instruments. For interest rate caps and floors written on adjustable
rate loans, the contract or notional amounts do not represent exposure to
credit loss. The Company controls the risk of interest rate cap agreements
through credit approvals, limits, and monitoring procedures.

The Company generally requires collateral or other security to support
financial instruments with credit risk.

</TABLE>

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination
clauses and may require payment of a fee.

Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn
upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash
requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a
case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary
by the Company, upon extension of credit is based on management's credit
evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include real
estate, accounts receivables, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and
income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company
to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those
guarantees are primarily issued to support private borrowing arrangements.
The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the
same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

Note 15.  Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal
proceedings. In the opinion of management, after consulting with the
Company's legal counsel, any liability resulting from such proceedings
would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
statements.

Note 21.  Regulatory Capital Requirements

Union and Citizens (the "Banks") are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet
minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly
additional discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could
have a direct material effect on the Banks' financial statements. Under
capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, the Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that
involve quantitative measures of the Banks' assets, liabilities, and
certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting
practices. The Banks' capital amounts and classification are also subject
to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk
weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the
table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to
risk-weighted assets (as defined), and


<PAGE>  36


UNION BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Note 21.  Regulatory Capital Requirements (Continued)

of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management
believes, as of December 31, 2001, that the Banks meet all capital adequacy
requirements to which they are subject.

As of December 31, 2001, the most recent notification from the FDIC
categorized the Banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework
for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the
Banks must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I
leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or
events since that notification that management believes have changed the
Banks' category.

The Banks' actual capital amounts (000's omitted) and ratios are also
presented in the table.

UNION BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


                                   GENERAL

The following discussion and analysis by Management focuses on those
factors that had a material effect on Union Bankshares, Inc.'s (Union's)
financial position as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and its results of
operations for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999. This
discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated Financial
Statements and related notes and with other financial data appearing
elsewhere. Management is not aware of the occurrence of any events after
December 31, 2001, which would materially affect the information presented
below.

The Company may from time to time make written or oral statements that are
considered "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may
include financial projections, statements of plans and objectives for
future operations, estimates of future economic performance and assumptions
relating thereto. The Company may include forward-looking statements in its
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in its reports to
stockholders, including this Annual Report, in other written materials, and
in statements made by senior management to analysts, rating agencies,
institutional investors, representatives of the media and others.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements are subject to
uncertainties, both general and specific, and risk exists those
predictions, forecasts, projections and other estimates contained in
forward-looking statements will not be achieved. Also when we use any of
the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates" or similar expressions, we
are making forward-looking statements. Many possible events or factors
could affect the future financial results and performance of our company.
This could cause results or performance to differ materially from those
expressed in our forward-looking statements. The possible events or factors
that might affect our forward-looking statements include, but are not
limited to, the following:

*     uses of monetary, fiscal and tax policy by various governments
*     political, legislative or regulatory developments in Vermont, New
      Hampshire or the United States including changes in laws concerning
      taxes, banking and other aspects of the financial services industry
*     developments in general economic or business conditions, including
      interest rate fluctuations, market fluctuations and perceptions, and
      inflation
*     changes in the competitive environment for financial services
      organizations
*     the Company's ability to retain key personnel
*     changes in technology including demands for greater automation
*     unanticipated lower revenues, loss of customers or business, or
      higher operating expenses
*     adverse changes in the securities market

When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect
to the Company, investors and others are cautioned to consider these and
other risks and uncertainties.

                                 ACQUISITION

Effective November 30, 1999, following the receipt of all required
stockholder, state and federal regulatory approvals, Union Bankshares, Inc.
acquired Citizens Savings Bank and Trust Co. This makes Union a two bank
holding company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect
the accounting for the acquisition as a pooling of interests and are
presented as if the companies were combined as of the earliest period
presented. However, the financial information is not necessarily indicative
of the results of operations, financial position or cash flows that would
have occurred had the acquisition been consummated for the periods for
which it is given effect, nor is it necessarily indicative of future
results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. The financial
statements reflect the conversion of each outstanding share of Citizens
common stock into 6.5217 shares of Union common stock. Additional
information with respect to this acquisition can be found in Note 19 to the
Financial Statements.

                            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's net income for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $4.832
million compared with net income of $4.800 million for the year 2000. Net
income per share was $1.59 for 2001 compared to $1.58 for 2000.

Net Interest Income. The largest component of Union's operating income is
net interest income, which is the difference between interest and dividend
income received from interest-earning assets and the interest expense paid
on its interest-bearing liabilities.


<PAGE>  42


Yields Earned and Rates Paid. The following table shows for the periods
indicated, the total amount of income recorded from interest-earning
assets, and the related average yields, the interest expense associated
with interest-bearing liabilities, expressed in dollars and average rates,
and the relative net interest spread and net interest margin. Yield and
rate information for a period is average information for the period, and is
calculated by dividing the income or expense item for the period by the
average balances of the appropriate balance sheet item during the period.
Net interest margin is net interest income divided by average interest-
earning assets. Nonaccrual loans are included in asset balances for the
appropriate periods, but recognition of interest on such loans is
discontinued and any remaining accrued interest receivable is reversed, in
conformity with federal regulations. The yields and net interest margins
appearing in the following table have been calculated on a pre-tax basis:

Union's net interest income increased by $310 thousand, or 2.18%, to $14.6
million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $14.2 million for the
year ended December 31, 2000. This increase was primarily due to the growth
in our loan portfolio that had an average yield of 8.82% in 2001 while the
combined lower yielding investment, interest-bearing deposits and federal
funds sold average balances decreased. On average for the year 93.4% of our
assets were earning interest in 2001 versus 93.9% in 2000. The net interest
spread decreased by 11 basis points to 4.29% for the year ended December
31, 2001, from 4.40% for the year ended December 31, 2000. The net interest
margin for the 2001 period decreased by 20 basis points to 4.99% from 5.19%
for the 2000 period.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table describes the extent to which
changes in interest rates and changes in volume of interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities have affected Union's interest income and
interest expense during the periods indicated. For each category of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is
provided on changes attributable to:

*     changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by prior rate);
*     changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by current volume); and
*     total change in rate and volume.

Changes attributable to both rate and volume have been allocated
proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate. All
changes are expressed as Dollars in thousands.

Interest and Dividend Income. Union's interest and dividend income
decreased by $2,000, to $24.124 million for the year ended December 31,
2001, from $24.126 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Average
earning assets increased by $16.5 million, or 5.86%, to $298.0 million for
the year ended December 31, 2001, from $281.5 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000. Average loans were $235.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 2001 up $19.9 million or 9.23% from $215.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 2000. Increases in commercial, construction and
real estate secured loans were partially offset by a decrease in average
consumer loans. Increases in loan volume offset the decreases in interest
rates led by the average prime rate for 2001 being 6.91%, down 232 basis
points from 9.23% in 2000. This mainly accounted for the increase in loan
interest income of $483,000 or 2.41%.

The average balance of investment securities (including mortgage-backed
securities) decreased by $7.0 million, or 12.01%, to $51.6 million for the
year ended December 31, 2001, from $58.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000. The average level of federal funds sold increased by
$2.65 million, or 49.3%, to $8.0 million for the year ended December 31,
2001, from $5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The average
balances invested in interest-bearing deposits increased to $2.9 million at
December 31, 2001 from $2.0 million, or 46.1%, at December 31, 2000. These
deposits are FDIC insured.

Interest Expense. Union's interest expense decreased by $312,000, or 3.16%,
to $9.565 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $9.877 million
for the year ended December 31, 2000. Average interest-bearing liabilities
increased by $13.8 million, or


<PAGE>  44


6.0% to $244.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $230.2
million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Average time deposits
increased $7.0 million, or 7.13%, to $105.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 2001, from $98.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000.
The average balances for NOW accounts increased by $1.9 million to $36.3
million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $34.4 million for the
year ended December 31, 2000. The average balances in savings and money
market accounts grew to $92.5 million in 2001 from $90.9 million in 2000 or
a 1.75% increase. Average borrowed funds grew $3.2 million or 50.96% from
$6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 to $9.6 million for the
year ended December 31, 2001. Lower interest rates offered prevailed for
the majority of interest-bearing liabilities for the current year but the
average rate paid on Certificates of Deposit edged up slightly from 5.14%
in 2000 to 5.17% in 2001. The average rate paid for Borrowed Funds rose
from 6.66% in 2000 to 8.00% in 2001 due to pre-payment penalties assessed
and paid to the Federal Home Loan Bank to pay off high rate debt in order
to take advantage of one of the lowest rate cycles in memory.

Noninterest Income. Union's noninterest income increased by $503,000 for
the year ended December 31, 2001. The results for the period reflected a
net gain of $156 thousand from the sale of loans compared to a net gain of
$34 thousand from these sales during 2000. The net gain on sales of
securities was $157 thousand for 2001 compared to $25 thousand for 2000.
Service fees (sources of which include deposit fees, loan servicing fees,
and ATM fees) increased by $166 thousand, or 7.50%, to $2.38 million for
the year ended December 31, 2001, from $2.21 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000. Trust income increased to $247,000 in 2001 from $182,000
in 2000 or a 35.79% increase due to a fee increase and a number of estate
settlements. Other noninterest income increased by $18,000, or 15.15%, to
$138 thousand for 2001 from $120 thousand for 2000.

Noninterest Expense. Union's noninterest expense increased $552,000, or
5.55%, to $10.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $9.9
million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Salaries increased $260,000,
or 5.78%, to $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $4.5
million for the year ended December 31, 2000, reflecting normal salary
activity. Pension and employee benefits increased $328 thousand or 29.19%
to $1.45 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $1.12 million
for the year ended December 31, 2000 mainly due to the increase in the
accrual for the Defined Benefit Pension Plan caused by anticipated
increases in future salaries and the performance decline in the underlying
investment instruments and the increase in the cost of medical insurance
coverage. Office occupancy expense increased $73 thousand, or 13.03%, to
$633,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $560,000 for the year
ended December 31, 2000, which was partially attributable to the opening of
a loan production office in Littleton, New Hampshire and the acquisition of
more corporate office space in Morrisville, Vermont. Equipment expense
decreased $159 thousand to $835 thousand for the year ended December 31,
2001, from $994 thousand for 2000 primarily resulting from decreased
depreciation cost on computer equipment and software purchases that are
depreciated as an expense over a time period of three to five years. Other
operating expense increased $51,000 to $2.82 million for the year ended
December 31, 2001 compared to $2.77 million for 2000 or a 1.82% increase.

Income Tax Expense. Union's income tax expense increased by $159,000, or
8.71%, to $1.98 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $1.83
million for 2000 mainly due to increased taxable income offset by the low
income housing credits that are available to us in both the 2001 and 2000
tax years related to our partnership investments in low income housing
projects sponsored by Housing Vermont in our market area. Our effective tax
rate for 2001 was 29.1% compared to 27.5% for 2000 when we had historic
rehabilitation tax credits available because of our investments in low-
income housing projects.

Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1999.

Interest and Dividend Income. Union's interest and dividend income
increased by $1,258,000, or 5.5% to $24.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000, from $22.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1999.
Average earning assets increased by $6.9 million, or 2.5%, to $281.5
million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $274.6 million for the
year ended December 31, 1999. Average loans were $215.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 2000 up from $202.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 1999. Increases in commercial, municipal, construction and
real estate secured loans were partially offset by a decrease in average
consumer loans. Increases in loan volume and interest rates led by the
average prime rate for 2000 being 9.23%, up from 7.99% in 1999, was
partially offset by the ever increasing competition, and the lower volume
of consumer loans. This mainly accounted for the increase in loan interest
income of $1,423,000 or 7.6%.

The average balance of investment securities (including mortgage-backed
securities) decreased by $2.4 million, or 4.0%, to $58.7 million for the
year ended December 31, 2000, from $61.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 1999. Higher interest rates during 2000 partially offset the
volume decrease in the investment portfolio as total interest and dividend
income was down only 1.9%. Union extended the investment maturity window
during 2000 in order to take advantage of the higher interest rates. The
average level of federal funds sold decreased by $3.2 million, or 37.5%, to
$5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $8.6 million for
the year ended December 31, 1999. The average balances invested in
interest-bearing deposits decreased to $2.0 million at December 31, 2000
from $2.2 million, or 11.7%, at December 31, 1999. These deposits are FDIC
insured.

Interest Expense. Union's interest expense increased by $756,000, or 8.3%,
to $9.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $9.1 million for
the year ended December 31, 1999. Average interest-bearing liabilities
increased by $4.4 million, or 1.9% to


<PAGE>  45


$230.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $225.9 million
for the year ended December 31, 1999. Average time deposits decreased $330
thousand to $98.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $98.9
million for the year ended December 31, 1999. The average balances for NOW
accounts decreased by $271 thousand to $34.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000, from $34.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1999.
The average balances in savings and money market accounts grew to $90.9
million in 2000 from $87.4 million in 1999 or a 4.1% increase. Higher
interest rates prevailed for all interest-bearing liabilities for 2000.

Noninterest Income. Union's noninterest income increased only $1,000 for
the year ended December 31, 2000. The results for the period reflected a
net gain of $34 thousand from the sale of loans compared to a net gain of
$40 thousand from these sales during 1999. The net gain on Sales of
Securities was $25 thousand for 2000 compared to $3 thousand for 1999.
Service fees decreased by $19,000, or .9%, to $2.21 million for the year
ended December 31, 2000, from $2.23 million for the year ended December 31,
1999. Trust income increased to $182,000 in 2000 from $166,000 in 1999 or a
9.6% increase. Other noninterest income decreased by $11,000, or 8.4%, to
$120 thousand for 2000 from $131 thousand for 1999.

Noninterest Expense. Union's noninterest expense decreased $121,000, or
1.2%, to $9.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $10.1
million for the year ended December 31, 1999. Salaries increased $260,000,
or 6.1%, to $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $4.2
million for the year ended December 31, 1999, reflecting normal salary
activity and severance pay to three former Citizens employees whose jobs
were eliminated as a result of the merger and the conversion of their EDP
processing to Union Bank. Pension and employee benefits increased $40
thousand or 3.7% to $1.12 million for the year ended December 31, 2000,
from $1.08 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 mainly due to the
increase in the accrual for the Defined Benefit Pension Plan caused by
anticipated increases in future salaries and the performance decline in the
underlying investment instruments. Office occupancy expense increased $26
thousand, or 4.8%, to $560,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, from
$535,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999. Equipment expense decreased
$131 thousand to $994 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2000, from
$1.1 million for 1999 primarily resulting from decreased depreciation cost
on computer equipment and software purchases that are depreciated as an
expense over a time period of three to five years.

Other operating expense includes approximately $500 thousand for the year
ended December 31, 1999 and $1,900 for 2000, for expenses related to the
merger, including legal and advisory fees. The other one time only expense
in 1999 was for Year 2000 preparations. Union had $59 thousand of non-
payroll-related expenses in 1999 and $1.5 thousand in 2000. Netting out
these one-time only expenses would leave $2.77 million of other operating
expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to $2.53 million for
1999 or a 9.4% increase. The increase was mainly attributable to the
listing of the Company on the American Stock Exchange, increases in State
franchise taxes paid, FDIC assessments paid, communications expense,
charitable contributions, training expense, travel expense and fees paid to
the Small Business Administration.

Income Tax Expense. Union's income tax expense increased by $10,000, or
0.5%, to $1.825 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $1.815
million for 1999 mainly due to increased taxable income offset by the low
income housing and historic rehabilitation credits that are available to us
in both the 2000 and 1999 tax years related to our partnership investments
in low-income housing projects sponsored by Housing Vermont in our market
area. Our effective tax rate for 2000 was 27.5% compared to 30.8% for 1999
as our merger related expenses in 1999 were not tax deductible.

                             FINANCIAL CONDITION

At December 31, 2001, Union had total consolidated assets of $337.5
million, including net loans and loans held for sale of $248.1 million,
deposits of $285.7 million and shareholders' equity of $37.2 million. Based
on the most recent information published by the Vermont Banking
Commissioner, in terms of total assets at December 31, 2000, Union Bank
ranked as the 10th largest institution of the 23 commercial banks and
savings institutions headquartered in Vermont and Citizens ranked 19th.

Union's total assets increased by $34.1 million, or 11.23% to $337.5
million at December 31, 2001 from $303.4 million at December 31, 2000.
Total net loans and loans held for sale increased by $26.2 million or
11.81% to $248.1 million or 73.5% of total assets at December 31, 2001 as
compared to $221.9 million or 73.1% of total assets at December 31, 2000.
This was due to increases of $12.1 million in commercial real estate loans,
$16.1 million real estate loans, other than commercial, $2.3 million in
commercial loans, that were partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in
municipal loans and a $2.4 million decrease in loans to consumers. Cash and
Due from banks increased from $10.4 million to $13.9 million between year-
ends. Federal funds sold increased approximately $6.5 million to $7.6
million at December 31, 2001 from $1.1 million at December 31, 2000. Total
deposits increased $27.0 million or 10.43% to $285.7 million at December
31, 2001 from $258.7 million at December 31, 2000. A $2.7 million increase
in NOW accounts to $41.0 million at December 31, 2001 from $38.4 million
the previous year end, a $15.1 million or 17.54% increase in money market
and savings accounts to $101.0 million from $85.9 million, an increase in
time deposits of $3.2 million or 3.22% raising time deposits to $104.2
million at December 31, 2001 from $100.9 million at December 31, 2000, and
a $6.0 million or 17.88% increase in non-interest bearing deposits between
years accounts for the increase. Total borrowings increased approximately
$4.0 million to $10.3 million at December 31, 2001 from $6.4 million at
December 31, 2000 due to match funding


<PAGE>  46


of certain loan commitments and the decision to take advantage of the low
interest rate environment to lock in funding with the Federal Home Loan
Bank.

Total equity increased by $2.0 million or 5.85% to $37.2 million at
December 31, 2001 from $35.2 million at December 31, 2000 as a result of an
increase of $523 thousand in the net unrealized holding gain on securities
available-for-sale, net income of $4.8 million, and the exercise of
employee stock options for $46,000, these increases were partially offset
by dividend payments of $3.2 million and the repurchase of Treasury Stock
for $129,000.

Loan Portfolio. Union's loan portfolio primarily consists of adjustable-
and fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family, multi-family
residential or commercial real estate. The composition of Union's gross
loan portfolio net of loans held for sale at December 31 for each of the
last five years was as follows:

Union originates and sells residential mortgages into the secondary market,
with most such sales made to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
(FHLMC). Union services a $169.8 million residential mortgage portfolio,
approximately $45.0 million of which is serviced for unaffiliated third
parties at December 31, 2001. Additionally, Union originates commercial
real estate and commercial loans under various SBA programs that provide an
agency guarantee for a portion of the loan amount. Union occasionally will
sell the guaranteed portion of the loan to other financial concerns and
will retain servicing rights, which generates fee income. Union capitalizes
mortgage-servicing rights on these fees and recognizes gains and losses on
the sale of the principal portion of these notes as they occur. Union
services approximately $8.6 million of commercial and commercial real
estate loans that have been previously sold.

Total loans not held for sale have increased $19.0 million or 8.79% since
December 31, 2000. The majority of this increase is due to management's
decision to hold in portfolio many loans that could be sold on the
secondary market. This strategy will increase our interest margin and
combined with our increased deposit base and overall borrowing capacity has
not affected our liquidity adversely.

The following table breaks down by classification the maturities of the
loans held in portfolio and held for sale as of December 31, 2001:

Asset Quality. Union, like all financial institutions, is exposed to
certain credit risks related to the value of the collateral that secures
its loans and the ability of borrowers to repay their loans. Management
closely monitors Union's loan and investment portfolios and other real
estate owned for potential problems on a periodic basis and reports to
Union's Board of Directors at regularly scheduled meetings.

Union had loans on non-accrual status totaling $1.8 million at December 31,
2001 and $1.5 million at December 31, 2000. The aggregate interest on non-
accrual loans not recognized through December 31, 2001 was $450,118,
through 2000 was $288,512, and through 1999 was $182,610.

Union had $3.0 million and $2.9 million in loans past due 90 days or more
and still accruing at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. At December
31, 2001, Union had internally classified certain loans totaling $793
thousand and $1.3 million at December 31. 2000. In management's view, such
loans represent a higher degree of risk and could become nonperforming
loans in the future. While still on a performing status, in accordance with
Union's credit policy, loans are internally classified when a review
indicates any of the following conditions making the likelihood of
collection questionable:

*     the financial condition of the borrower is unsatisfactory;
*     repayment terms have not been met;
*     the borrower has sustained losses that are sizable, either in
      absolute terms or relative to net worth;
*     confidence is diminished;
*     loan covenants have been violated;
*     collateral is inadequate; or
*     other unfavorable factors are present.

At December 31, 2001, Union had acquired by foreclosure or through
repossession real estate worth $1.3 million, consisting of commercial
property, a residential property and undeveloped land. The balance at
December 31, 2000 was $116 thousand.

Allowance for Loan Losses. Some of Union's loan customers ultimately do not
make all of their contractually scheduled payments, requiring Union to
charge off the remaining principal balance due. Union maintains an
allowance for loan losses to absorb such losses. While Union allocates the
allowance for loan losses based on the percentage category to total loans,
the portion of the allowance for loan losses allocated to each category
does not represent the total available for future losses which may occur
within the loan category since the total allowance for possible loan losses
is a valuation reserve applicable to the entire portfolio.

The following table reflects activity in the allowance for loan losses for
the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998,and 1997.

Investment Activities. At December 31, 2001, the reported value of
investment securities available-for-sale was $49.6 million or 14.7% of
assets. Union had no securities classified as held-to-maturity or trading.
The adoption of FASB No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities," has had an impact on our investment portfolio. This
accounting standard, effective for 1994 statements, requires banks to
recognize all appreciation or depreciation of the investment portfolio
either on the balance sheet or through the income statement even though a
gain or loss has not been realized. These changes require securities
classified as "trading securities" to be marked to market with any gain or
loss charged to income. Securities classified as "available-for-sale" are
marked to market with any gain or loss after taxes charged to the equity
portion of the balance sheet. Securities classified as "held-to-maturity"
are to be held at book value. The reported value of securities available-
for-sale at December 31, 2001 reflects a positive valuation adjustment of
$749 thousand. The offset of this adjustment, net of income tax effect, was
a $494 thousand increase in Union's other comprehensive income component of
shareholders' equity and a decrease in net deferred tax assets of $255
thousand.

The following tables show as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 the amortized
cost of Union's investment portfolio maturing within the stated period.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk and Asset and Liability Management (ALM). Market risk is the
risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in
market prices and rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices
and equity prices. Union's market risk arises primarily from interest rate
risk inherent in its lending, investing, and deposit taking activities. To
that end, management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk
exposure. Union does not have any market risk sensitive instruments
acquired for trading purposes. Union attempts to structure its balance
sheet to maximize net interest income while controlling its exposure to
interest rate risks. Union's Asset/Liability Committee formulates
strategies to manage interest rate risk by evaluating the impact on
earnings and capital of such factors as current interest rate forecasts and
economic indicators, potential changes in such forecasts and indicators,
liquidity, and various business strategies. Union's Asset/Liability
Committee's methods for evaluating interest rate risk include an analysis
of Union's interest-rate sensitivity "gap", which provides a static
analysis of the maturity and repricing characteristics of Union's entire
balance sheet, and a simulation analysis, which calculates projected net
interest income based on alternative balance sheet and interest rate
scenarios, including "rate shock" scenarios involving substantial increases
or decreases in market rates of interest.

Union's Asset/Liability Committee meets at least weekly to set loan and
deposit rates, make investment decisions, monitor liquidity and evaluate
the loan demand pipeline. Deposit runoff is monitored daily and loan
prepayments evaluated monthly. Union historically has maintained a
substantial portion of its loan portfolio on a variable rate basis and
plans to continue this ALM strategy in the future. The investment portfolio
is all classified as available for sale and the modified duration is
relatively short. Union does not utilize any derivative products or invest
in any "high risk" instruments.

Our interest rate sensitivity analysis (simulation) as of December 2000 for
a simulated flat rate environment projected a Net Interest Income of $16.0
million for 2001 based on average assets for 2001 of $307.6 million
compared to actual results of $14.6 million on average assets of $319.0
million or an 8.75% difference. The Prime rate dropped from 9.5% on January
1, 2001 to 4.75% on December 31, 2001. Interest rates were down in 2001 on
interest earning assets 48 basis points and 37 basis points on interest
paying liabilities. We continued to have higher demand for loans ($235.4
milllion on average for 2001) than anticipated ($226.3 million) which
resulted in our percentage of loans to interest earning assets growing from
76.54% to 79.01% as we shifted resources from lower yielding assets to
loans. Our net interest margin for 2001 was 4.99% and our net interest
spread was 4.29%. Net income was projected to be $5.9 million in a
simulated flat rate environment compared to actual results of $4.8 million.
Of the $1.1 million difference, $1.4 million relates to the decrease in net
interest income offset by Trust income being $61 thousand higher than
budgeted, Gain on Sale of Securities was $106 thousand higher than
anticipated, and Gain on Sale of Loans was $121 thousand higher than
expected. Return on Assets was 1.51% compared to our simulated flat rate
projection of 1.91%. Return on Equity was 13.34% compared to our simulated
flat rate projection of 16.06%. These two ratios were lower based on lower
net income as explained above and higher average balances than anticipated.

The Company generally requires collateral or other security to support
financial instruments with credit risk. Commitments to extend credit are
agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any
condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a
fee. (See Footnote 14 to the Financial Statements for details.)

Interest Rate Sensitivity "Gap" Analysis. An interest rate sensitivity
"gap" is defined as the difference between interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within a given time
period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate
sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities.
A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive
liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During a
period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to adversely
affect net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to result in an
increase in net interest income. During a period of falling interest rates,
a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income,
while a positive gap would tend to affect net interest income adversely.
Because different types of assets and liabilities with the same or similar
maturities may react differently to changes in overall market interest
rates or conditions, changes in interest rates may affect net interest
income positively or negatively even if an institution were perfectly
matched in each maturity category.

Union prepares its interest rate sensitivity "gap" analysis by scheduling
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities into periods based
upon the next date on which such assets and liabilities could mature or
reprice. The amounts of assets and liabilities shown within a particular
period were determined in accordance with the contractual terms of the
assets and liabilities, except that:

*     adjustable-rate loans, securities, and FHLB advances are included in
      the period when they are first scheduled to adjust and not in the
      period in which they mature;

*     fixed-rate mortgage-related securities reflect estimated prepayments,
      which were estimated based on analyses of broker estimates, the
      results of a prepayment model utilized by Union, and empirical data;


<PAGE>  51


*     fixed-rate loans reflect scheduled contractual amortization, with no
      estimated prepayments; and

*     NOW, money markets, and savings deposits, which do not have
      contractual maturities, reflect estimated levels of attrition, which
      are based on detailed studies by Union of the sensitivity of each
      such category of deposit to changes in interest rates.

Management believes that these assumptions approximate actual experience
and considers them reasonable. However, the interest rate sensitivity of
Union's assets and liabilities in the tables could vary substantially if
different assumptions were used or actual experience differs from the
historical experience on which the assumptions are based.

The following tables show Union's rate sensitivity analysis as of December
31, 2001 and 2000:

Simulation Analysis. In its simulation analysis, Union uses computer
software to simulate the estimated impact on net interest income and
capital under various interest rate scenarios, balance sheet trends, and
strategies. These simulations incorporate assumptions about balance sheet
dynamics such as loans and deposit growth, product pricing, changes in
funding mix, and asset and liability repricing and maturity
characteristics. Based on the results of these simulations, Union is able
to quantify its interest rate risk and develop and implement appropriate
strategies.

The following chart reflects the results of our latest simulation analysis
for next year-end on Net Interest Income, Net Income, Return on Assets,
Return on Equity and Capital Value. The projection utilizes a rate shock of
300 basis points from the year-end prime rate of 4.75%; this is the highest
internal slope monitored and shows the best and worse scenarios analyzed.
This slope range was determined to be the most relevant during this
economic cycle.

</TABLE>

Liquidity. Liquidity is a measurement of Union's ability to meet potential
cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to fund deposit
withdrawals, repay borrowings, fund investment and lending activities, and
for other general business purposes. Union's principal sources of funds are
deposits, amortization and prepayment of loans and securities, maturities
of investment securities and other short-term investments, sales of
securities available-for-sale, and earnings and funds provided from
operations. In addition, as both subsidiary banks are members of the FHLB,
Union has access to preapproved lines of credit up to 1.95% of total
assets. Union also has a $4 million short term preapproved line of credit
with one of their correspondent banks.

The Banks maintain IDEAL Way Lines of Credit with the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Boston. The total line available to Union Bank was $3,551,000 and
$3,356,000 as of December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The
total line available to Citizens Savings Bank and Trust Company was
$3,040,000 as of both December 31, 2001 and 2000. There were no borrowings
against these lines of credit at December 31, 2001 or 2000. Interest on
these borrowings is chargeable at a rate determined by the Federal Home
Loan Bank and payable monthly. Should the Company utilize these lines of
credit, qualified portions of the loan and investment portfolios would
collateralize these borrowings.

While scheduled loan and securities payments and FHLB advances are
relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and prepayments on
loans and mortgage-backed securities are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. Union's liquidity is
actively managed on a daily basis, monitored by the Asset/Liability
Committee, and reviewed periodically with the Board of Directors. Union's
Asset/Liability Committee sets liquidity targets based on Union's financial
condition and existing and projected economic and market conditions. The
committee measures Union's net loan to deposit ratio, the 90 day and 1 year
maturity gaps and long term (>3 years) assets repricing compared to total
assets on a quarterly basis. The committee's primary objective is to manage
Union's liquidity position and funding sources in order to ensure that it
has the ability to meet its ongoing commitment to its depositors, to fund
loan commitments, and to maintain a portfolio of investment securities.
Since many of the loan commitments are expected to expire without being
drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent
future cash requirements.

Union's management monitors current and projected cash flows and adjusts
positions as necessary to maintain adequate levels of liquidity. Although
approximately 73.30% of Union's time deposits will mature within twelve
months, management believes, based upon past experience, that Union will
retain a substantial portion of these deposits. Management will continue to
offer a competitive but prudent pricing strategy to facilitate retention of
such deposits. Any reduction in total deposits could be offset by purchases
of federal funds, short-term FHLB borrowings, or liquidation of investment
securities or loans held for sale. Such steps could result in an increase
in Union's cost of funds and adversely impact the net interest margin.

Regulatory Capital Requirements. As of December 31, 2001, the most recent
notification from the FDIC categorized Union Bank and Citizens Savings Bank
& Trust Co. as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the banks must
maintain a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 10%, Tier I risk-based
capital ratio of 6% and Tier I leverage ratio of 5%. (See Footnote 21 to
the Financial Statements for details on the individual banks' capital
ratios). Union's total risk based capital ratio is 17.43%, Tier 1 risk
based capital ratio is 16.16%, and Tier 1 leverage ratio is 11.06% as of
December 31, 2001. There are no conditions or events since the date of the
most recent notification that management believes might result in an
adverse change to either banks' or Union's regulatory capital category.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices. Union's consolidated financial
statements, included in this document, have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of
America which require the measurements of financial position and results of
operations in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in
the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Banks
have asset and liability structures that are essentially monetary in
nature, and their general and administrative costs constitute relatively
small percentages of total expenses. Thus, increases in the general price
levels for goods and services have a relatively minor effect on Union's
total expenses. Interest rates have a more significant impact on Union's
financial performance than the effect of general inflation. Interest rates
do not necessarily move in the same direction or change in the same
magnitude as the prices of goods and services, although periods of
increased inflation may accompany a rising interest rate environment.
