Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Note 1:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of United Bancorp, Inc. (“Company”) at June 30, 2010, and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not purport to contain all the necessary financial disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America that might otherwise be necessary in the circumstances and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2009 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Company described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Bancorp, Inc. (“United” or “the Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Citizens Savings Bank of Martins Ferry, Ohio (“the Bank” or “Citizens”). The Company operates in two divisions, The Community Bank, a division of The Citizens Savings Bank and The Citizens Bank, a division of The Citizens Savings Bank. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Nature of Operations

The Company’s revenues, operating income, and assets are almost exclusively derived from banking. Accordingly, all of the Company’s banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. Customers are mainly located in Athens, Belmont, Carroll, Fairfield, Harrison, Hocking, Jefferson, and Tuscarawas Counties and the surrounding localities in northeastern, east-central and southeastern Ohio, and include a wide range of individuals, businesses and other organizations. The Citizens Bank division conducts its business through its main office in Martins Ferry, Ohio and twelve branches in Bridgeport, Colerain, Dellroy, Dillonvale, Dover, Jewett, New Philadelphia, St. Clairsville East, Saint Clairsville West, Sherrodsville, Strasburg, and Tiltonsville, Ohio. The Community Bank division conducts its business through its main office in Lancaster, Ohio and seven offices in Amesville, Glouster, Lancaster, and Nelsonville, Ohio. The Company’s primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate and are not considered “sub prime” type loans. The targeted lending areas of our bank operations encompass four separate metropolitan areas, minimizing the risk to changes in economic conditions in the communities housing the Company’s 20 branch locations.

Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Net interest income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the Company can be significantly influenced by a number of environmental factors, such as governmental monetary and fiscal policies, that are outside of management’s control.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Use of Estimates

To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses and fair values of financial instruments are particularly subject to change.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to income. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a monthly basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers nonclassified loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from the Company’s internal risk rating process. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risking rating data.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Groups of loans with similar risk characteristics are collectively evaluated for impairment based on the group’s historical loss experience adjusted for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that affect repayment of the loans. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment measurements, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement due to financial difficulties of the borrower.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, less shares in the ESOP which are unallocated and not committed to be released. At June 30, 2010 and 2009, the ESOP held 248,176 and 283,635 unallocated shares, respectively, which were not included in weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under the Company’s stock compensation plans.

Income Taxes

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, as well as various state jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years before 2006.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

FASB ASC 860-10 concerning accounting for transfers of financial assets was issued in June 2009 and changes the derecognition guidance for transferors of financial assets, including entities that sponsor securitizations, to align that guidance with the original intent of previous guidance. FASB ASC 860-10 also eliminates the exemption from consolidation for qualifying special-purpose entities (QSPEs). As a result, all existing QSPEs need to be evaluated to determine whether the QSPE should be consolidated in accordance with FASB ASC 860-10.

FASB ASC 860-10 is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period beginning after November 15, 2009 (January 1, 2010, as to the Company), for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The recognition and measurement provisions of FASB ASC 860-10 must be applied to transfers that occur on or after the effective date. Early application is prohibited. FASB ASC 860-10 also requires additional disclosures about transfers of financial assets that occur both before and after the effective date. The Company adopted FASB ASC 860-10 effective January 1, 2010, as required, without material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 860-10 also improves how enterprises account for and disclose their involvement with variable interest entities (VIE’s), which are special-purpose entities, and other entities whose equity at risk is insufficient or lack certain characteristics. Among other things, FASB ASC 860-10 changes how an entity determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE) and whether that VIE should be consolidated. FASB ASC 860-10 requires an entity to provide significantly more disclosures about its involvement with VIEs. As a result, the Company must comprehensively review its involvements with VIEs and potential VIEs, including entities previously considered to be qualifying special purpose entities, to determine the effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. FASB ASC 860-10 is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009 (January 1, 2010, as to the Company), and for interim periods within the first annual reporting period. Earlier application is prohibited.

Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-16 (formerly SFAS 166) modified the criteria to qualify a transfer of a portion of a financial asset for sale accounting. This guidance eliminated non-prorata participations, such as last-in, first-out loan participations, being accounted for as loan sales. Instead, these types of transactions will be accounted for as secured borrowings, which would require the legally sold piece of the loan to remain on the books of the seller and be offset with a liability. This could also have regulatory implications, such as issues with lending limits and regulatory capital levels. The Company must apply ASU 2009-16 to new transactions and modifications of existing transactions occurring on or after January 1, 2010. The Company adopted ASU 2009-16 effective January 1, 2010, as required, without significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-20, Receivables: Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (Topic 310), issued on July 21, 2010, concerns improved disclosures regarding the credit quality in a financial institution’s loan portfolio. The guidance requires additional disaggregation of the credit portfolio by portfolio segment and class of receivable, a revised roll forward of the allowance for credit losses, presentation of the credit portfolio by credit quality indicators, an aging schedule of past due receivables, disclosure of troubled debt restructurings and purchases and sales of receivables by portfolio segment. The period-end disclosures are effective for periods ending on or after December 15, 2010 (December 31, 2010 for the Company). The activity disclosures are effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010 (January 1, 2011 for the Company). The adoption of FASB ASU 2010-20 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Certain investments in debt securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost. The total fair value of these investments at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, was $4.4 million and $47.8 million, which represented approximately 4.0% and 43.0%, respectively, of the Company’s available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment portfolio.

Based on evaluation of available evidence, including recent changes in market interest rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary.

Should the impairment of any of these securities become other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in U.S. Government agency, mortgage-backed and municipal securities were caused primarily by interest rate changes. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010.

The Company’s impaired loans totaled $7.5 million and $4.7 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company reviews each impaired loan to determine whether a specific allowance for loan loss is necessary. Based upon this review, an allowance for loan losses of $1.5 million and $984,000 relates to impaired loans of $5.2 million and $3.3 million, at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Impaired loans of $2.3 million and $1.4 million had no related allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Interest income of $167,000 and $59,000 was recognized on average impaired loans of $7.5 million and $7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest income was recognized on impaired loans on a cash basis for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more (including impaired loans of $749,000 at June 30, 2010 and $477,000 at December 31, 2009) totaled $903,000 and $971,000, respectively. Non-accruing loans at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 (including impaired loans of $4.5 million at June 30, 2010 and $4.2 million at December 31, 2009) were $5.4 million and $5.4 million, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contracts are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.

A summary of the notional or contractual amounts of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at the indicated dates is as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company also utilizes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2

Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Available-for-sale Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company has no available for-sale-securities classified as Level 1 of the hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company generally relies on prices obtained from independent pricing services or brokers. Securities measured with this valuation technique are generally classified as Level 2 of the hierarchy, and their fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows using significant inputs observable in the market. Examples of Level 2 securities include U.S. government agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and state and political subdivision bonds. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy. The Company has no securities classified as Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Impaired Loans

Collateral dependent impaired loans consisted primarily of loans secured by nonresidential real estate. Management has determined fair value measurements on impaired loans primarily through evaluations of appraisals performed. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, impaired loans are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Mortgage servicing rights, which are included in other assets, do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow models. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value (based on current appraised value) at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Management has determined fair value measurements on other real estate owned primarily through evaluations of appraisals performed, and current and past offers for the other real estate under evaluation. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, foreclosed assets held for sale are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

The following table presents estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Certificates of Deposit in other Financial Institutions

The fair value of certificates of deposit in other financial institutions is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar certificates could be acquired from financial institutions with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Certificates with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations.

Held-to-maturity Securities

Fair values equal quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices of similar securities.

Loans

The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations.

Deposits

Deposits include demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and certain money market deposits. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Interest Payable

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Short-term Borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Subordinated Debentures

Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt.

Commitments to Originate Loans, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit

The fair value of commitments to originate loans is 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. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. Fair values of commitments were not material at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

ITEM 2	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discusses the financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2010, as compared to December 31, 2009, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included herein.

Introduction

The Company’s earnings in the six months ended June 30, 2010 generated an annualized 0.61% return on average assets (“ROA”) and an annualized 7.70% return on average equity (“ROE”), compared to 0.65% ROA and 8.66% ROE for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Comparing the six months ended June 30, 2010 to 2009, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.92% compared to 4.00%, which caused a decrease in net interest income of approximately $149,000 or 2.0%. As the historically low interest rates continue into the second half of 2010, it will be challenging to continue spreading the net interest margin by lowering the Company’s cost of funds on an accelerated basis relative to the income generated by its assets. Comparing the same periods, customer service fees on deposits increased $72,000.

We are pleased with our earnings performance and risk management of the past year. In addition to meeting the FDIC premiums levied upon us, we were able to focus on improving our risk exposure in our loan portfolio. As previously reported, we never were a participant in sub-prime lending or derivative investing. This past year, while we wrote-off $1.7 million in loans impacted by current economic conditions, we generated sufficient earnings to cover our costs associated with the three recently acquired banking offices from the FDIC and supported an increase in our cash dividend payment. Our 2010 budget process is projecting another positive year of earnings that supports our recently announced capital expenditure programs which include the replacement of our core processing systems and the construction of a new banking center in Tiltonsville, Ohio, both of which we project to be completed in the third quarter of this year. Despite the continuing media reports of trouble within our economy impacting business, manufacturing and financial sector performance, we are preparing for our future which we forecast to be exciting and rewarding.

Forward-Looking Statements

When used in this document, the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimated,” “projected” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in economic conditions in the Bank’s market areas, changes in policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Bank’s market areas and competition, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. Factors listed above could affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company’s actual results for future periods to differ materially from any statements expressed with respect to future periods.

The Company is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources except as discussed herein. The Company is not aware of any current recommendation by regulatory authorities that would have such effect if implemented except as discussed herein.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial

Condition and Results of Operations

The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date such statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Current Economic Conditions

The current economic environment presents financial institutions with unprecedented circumstances and challenges which in some cases have resulted in large declines in the fair values of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems, including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Company.

Given the volatility of current economic conditions, the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements could change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset values, the allowance for loan losses and capital that could negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management makes certain judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgment.

The procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses reflect our evaluation of credit risk after careful consideration of all information available to management. In developing this assessment, management must rely on estimates and exercise judgment regarding matters where the ultimate outcome is unknown such as economic factors, developments affecting companies in specific industries and issues with respect to single borrowers. Depending on changes in circumstances, future assessments of credit risk may yield materially different results, which may require an increase or a decrease in the allowance for loan losses.

The allowance is regularly reviewed by management and the board to determine whether the amount is considered adequate to absorb probable losses. This evaluation includes specific loss estimates on certain individually reviewed loans, statistical loss estimates for loan pools that are based on historical loss experience, and general loss estimates that are based on the size, quality and concentration characteristics of the various loan portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay and current economic and industry conditions. Also considered as part of that judgment is a review of the Bank’s trend in delinquencies and loan losses, and economic factors.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is an estimate based on management’s current judgment about the credit quality of the loan portfolio. While the Company strives to reflect all known risk factors in its evaluation, judgment errors may occur.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Earning Assets – Loans

At June 30, 2010, gross loans were $268.8 million, compared to $257.7 million at December 31, 2009, an increase of $11.1 million or 4.3%. The overall increase in the loan portfolio was driven by a $6.0 million increase in commercial and commercial real estate loans and a $4.3 million increase in installment loans since December 31, 2009.

Commercial and commercial real estate loans comprised 58.3% of total loans at June 30, 2010, compared to 58.5% at December 31, 2009. Commercial and commercial real estate loans have increased $6.0 million, or 4.3% since December 31, 2009. The Company has originated and purchased participations in loans from other banks for out-of-area commercial and commercial real estate loans to benefit from consistent economic growth outside the Company’s primary market area, but all within the state of Ohio.

Installment loans represented 18.3% of total loans at June 30, 2010, and 17.4% at December 31, 2009. This indirect lending type of financing carries somewhat more risk than real estate lending; however, it also provides for higher yields. Installment loans have increased $4.3 million, or 9.6%, since December 31, 2009. The targeted lending areas encompass four separate metropolitan areas, minimizing the risk to changes in economic conditions in the communities housing the Company’s 20 branch locations.

Real estate loans were 23.4% of total loans at June 30, 2010 and 24.1% at December 31, 2009. Real estate loans have increased by $721,000 since December 31, 2009. Real estate lending for the six months ended June 30, 2010 has been slow with respect to the Company’s adjustable-rate mortgage products. As of June 30, 2010, the Bank has approximately $28.0 million in fixed-rate loans that have been sold in the secondary market. The Company continues to service these loans for a fee that is typically 25 basis points. At June 30, 2010, the Company did not hold any loans for sale.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $2.7 million at June 30, 2010, which represented 1.02% of total loans, and $2.4 million at December 31, 2009, or 0.92% of total loans. The increased allowance represents the amount which management and the Board of Directors estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance balance and the provision charged to expense are reviewed by management and the Board of Directors monthly using a risk evaluation model that considers borrowers’ past due experience, economic conditions and various other circumstances that are subject to change over time. Management believes the current balance of the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable incurred credit losses associated with the loan portfolio. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were approximately $391,000, or 16.4%, of the beginning balance in the allowance for loan losses.

Condition and Results of Operations

Earning Assets - Securities and Federal Funds Sold

The securities portfolio is comprised of U.S. Government agency-backed securities, tax-exempt obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain other investments. The Company does not hold any collateralized mortgage-backed securities or derivative securities other than those issued by U.S. government agencies. Securities available for sale at June 30, 2010 increased approximately $1.8 million, or 1.9%, from December 31, 2009 totals. With the overall low interest rate environment, the Company has experienced a high level of called bond activity during the first six months of 2010. While the Company has plans to reinvest a portion of these funds into the loan portfolio, the balance will be reinvested in other available-for-sale securities. There is lag between the time when bonds are called and the right investment opportunities are available to the Company. Also given the historically low interest rate environment at present, the Company has implemented a strategy to invest in short term certificates of deposit (“CD’s”) in other financial institutions. These CD’s are fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and offer an alternative to investing in longer term U.S Government agency-backed securities. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $5.1 million of CD’s with an average yield of 1.73% and an average term to maturity of approximately 190 days. With the continued low interest rate environment, the opportunity to invest in short term CD’s in other financial institutions has become limited during the first six months of 2010.

Sources of Funds – Deposits

The Company’s primary source of funds is core deposits from retail and business customers. These core deposits include all categories of interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, excluding certificates of deposit greater than $100,000. For the period ended June 30, 2010, total core deposits increased approximately $935,000, or 0.32%. The Company’s savings accounts increased $4.6 million, or 10.2%, from December 31, 2009 totals. The Company’s interest-bearing demand deposits increased $2.0 million, or 1.82%, noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $1.5 million, or 6.6%, while certificates of deposit under $100,000 decreased by $8.8 million, or 5.4%.

The Company has a strong deposit base from public agencies, including local school districts, city and township municipalities, public works facilities and others that may tend to be more seasonal in nature resulting from the receipt and disbursement of state and federal grants. These entities have maintained fairly static balances with the Company due to various funding and disbursement timeframes.

Certificates of deposit greater than $100,000 are not considered part of core deposits and as such are used to balance rate sensitivity as a tool of funds management. At June 30, 2010, certificates of deposit greater than $100,000 decreased $1.5 million, or 2.9%, from December 31, 2009 totals.

Sources of Funds - Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Other Borrowings

Other interest-bearing liabilities include securities sold under agreements to repurchase, sweep accounts, Treasury, Tax and Loan notes payable and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. The majority of the Company’s repurchase agreements are with local school districts and city and county governments. The Company’s short-term borrowings increased approximately $936,000 from December 31, 2009 totals.

Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Net Income

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $0.30 compared with $0.32 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. In dollars, the Company’s net income was $1,384,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $89,000, or 6.1% compared with net income of $1,473,000 for the same period in 2009.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, by definition, is the difference between interest income generated on interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Various factors contribute to changes in net interest income, including volumes, interest rates and the composition or mix of interest-earning assets in relation to interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income decreased 1.9%, or $149,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. As the historically low interest rates continue into the second half of 2010, it will be challenging to continue spreading the net interest margin by lowering the Company’s cost of funds on an accelerated basis relative to the income generated by its assets.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $730,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $658,000 for the same period in 2009. The increase in loan loss provision for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, was based upon an increase in nonperforming loans and consideration of the economic challenges facing the banking industry.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income is made up of bank related fees and service charges, as well as other income producing services provided, sales of loans in the secondary market, ATM income, early redemption penalties for certificates of deposit, safe deposit rental income, internet bank service fees, earnings on bank-owned life insurance and other miscellaneous items.

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $1,635,000, an increase of $33,000 or 2.1%, compared to $1,602,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. During the six-months ended June 30, 2010, the increase in noninterest income was driven by an increase in customer service fees of approximately $72,000.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $6,842,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 a decrease of $34,000, or 0.5%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. Salaries and employee benefit expense increased $235,000, or 7.1%, for the period ended June 30, 2010 over the same period in 2009. This increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company’s management group in preparation for the previously announced management succession plan, normal merit increases, and increases in benefit costs and restricted stock award expenses. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company issued restricted stock to certain officers and directors. Professional fees decreased $33,000 for the six month ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $44,000, or 5.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009. Increased depreciation expense on premise, computer hardware and software and related service maintenance was the primary reason for the increase. Deposit insurance premiums decreased $201,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009. In the second quarter of June 2009, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation imposed a 5 basis point assessment on all FDIC insured banks. This special assessment was approximately $225,000 and was expensed in the second quarter of 2009.

Federal Income Taxes

The provision for federal income taxes was $203,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $65,000 compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease in tax expense was due primarily to a $154,000 decrease in pretax income. The effective tax rate was 12.8% and 15.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

Net Income

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $0.15, unchanged when compared with $0.15 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. In dollars, the Company’s net income was $701,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $29,000, or 4.3%, compared with net income of $672,000 for the same quarter in 2009.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, by definition, is the difference between interest income generated on interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Various factors contribute to changes in net interest income, including volumes, interest rates and the composition or mix of interest-earning assets in relation to interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income decreased 1.0%, or $36,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. As the historically low interest rates continue into the second half of 2010, it will be challenging to continue spreading the net interest margin by lowering the Company’s cost of funds on an accelerated basis relative to the income generated by its assets.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $370,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $334,000 for the same period in 2009. The increase in loan loss provision for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, was based upon an increase in nonperforming loans and consideration of the economic challenges facing the banking industry.

Condition and Results of Operations

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $859,000, an increase of $46,000 or 5.7%, compared to $813,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2009. During the three-months ended June 30, 2010, the increase in noninterest income was due to an increase in service charge on deposit accounts of approximately $51,000.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $3,471,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 a decrease of $96,000, or 2.7%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009. Salaries and employee benefit expense increased $102,000, or 6.1%, for the three month period ended June 30, 2010 over the same period in 2009. This increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company’s management group in preparation for the previously announced management succession plan, normal merit increases, and increases in benefit costs and restricted stock award expenses. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company issued restricted stock to certain officers and directors. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $18,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 over the same period in 2009. Increased depreciation expense on premises, computer hardware and software and related service maintenance was the primary reason for the increase. Advertising decreased $39,000 for the first quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Deposit insurance premiums decreased $261,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009. In the second quarter of June 2009, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation imposed a 5 basis point assessment on all FDIC insured banks. This special assessment was approximately $225,000 and was expensed in the second quarter of 2009.

Federal Income Taxes

The provision for federal income taxes was $115,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $41,000 compared to the same period in 2009. The increase in tax expense was due primarily to a $70,000 increase in pretax income. The effective tax rate was 14.1% and 9.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Capital Resources

Internal capital growth, through the retention of earnings, is the primary means of maintaining capital adequacy for the Company. Stockholders’ equity totaled $36.3 million at June 30, 2010 compared to $35.2 million at December 31, 2009, a $1.1 million increase. Total stockholders’ equity in relation to total assets was 8.0% at both June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. In 2001, our shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to create a class of preferred shares with 2,000,000 authorized shares. This enables the Company, at the option of the Board of Directors, to issue series of preferred shares in a manner calculated to take advantage of financing techniques which may provide a lower effective cost of capital to the Company. The amendment also provides greater flexibility to the Board of Directors in structuring the terms of equity securities that may be issued by the Company. Although this preferred stock is a financial tool, it has not been utilized to date.

The Company has offered for many years a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“The Plan”) for shareholders under which the Company’s common stock will be purchased by the Plan for participants with automatically reinvested dividends. The Plan does not represent a change in the Company’s dividend policy or a guarantee of future dividends.

Condition and Results of Operations

The Company is subject to the regulatory requirements of The Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company. The Bank is subject to regulations of the FDIC and the State of Ohio, Division of Financial Institutions. The most important of these various regulations address capital adequacy.

Liquidity

Management’s objective in managing liquidity is maintaining the ability to continue meeting the cash flow needs of its customers, such as borrowings or deposit withdrawals, as well as its own financial commitments. The principal sources of liquidity are net income, loan payments, maturing securities and sales of securities available for sale, federal funds sold and cash and deposits with banks. Along with its liquid assets, the Company has additional sources of liquidity available to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These include, but are not limited to, the purchase of federal funds, the ability to borrow funds under line of credit agreements with correspondent banks, a borrowing agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and the adjustment of interest rates to obtain depositors. Management feels that it has the capital adequacy and profitability to meet the current and projected liquidity needs of its customers.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial

Condition and Results of Operations

Inflation

Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities relate to banking activities and are monetary in nature. The consolidated financial statements and related financial data are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S. GAAP currently requires the Company to measure the financial position and results of operations in terms of historical dollars, with the exception of securities available for sale, certain impaired loans and certain other real estate and loans that may be measured at fair value. Changes in the value of money due to rising inflation can cause purchasing power loss.

Management’s opinion is that movements in interest rates affect the financial condition and results of operations to a greater degree than changes in the rate of inflation. It should be noted that interest rates and inflation do affect each other, but do not always move in correlation with each other. The Company’s ability to match the interest sensitivity of its financial assets to the interest sensitivity of its liabilities in its asset/liability management may tend to minimize the effect of changes in interest rates on the Company’s performance.

ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There has been no significant change from disclosures included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company, under the supervision, and with the participation, of its management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.

United Bancorp maintains a stock repurchase program publicly announced by a press release issued on November 18, 2008, under which its Board of Directors authorized management to cause the Company to purchase up to $2 million of its common shares over a two-year period. Such authorization will expire on November 18, 2010.

The Company adopted the United Bancorp, Inc. Affiliate Banks Directors and Officers Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), which is an unfunded deferred compensation plan. Amounts deferred pursuant to the Plan remain unrestricted assets of the Company, and the right to participate in the Plan is limited to members of the Board of Directors and Company officers. Under the Plan, eligible participants may defer fees and up to 50% of their annual incentive award payable to them by the Company, which are used to acquire common shares which are credited to a participant’s respective account. Except in the event of certain emergencies, no distributions are to be made from any account as long as the participant continues to be an employee or member of the Board of Directors. Upon termination of service, the aggregate number of shares credited to the participant’s account are distributed to him or her along with any cash proceeds credited to the account which have not yet been invested in the Company’s stock. On June 28, 2010, the Company purchased a total of 2,784 common shares for participant accounts. Also on May 18, 2010 the Company purchased a total of 2,508 common shares for participant accounts. All purchases under this deferred compensation plan are funded with either earned director fees or incentive award payments. No underwriting fees, discounts, or commissions are paid in connection with the Plan. The shares allocated to participant accounts have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance upon the exemption provided by Section 4(2) thereof.
