Part I

Item 1. Business

GENERAL
MBT Financial Corp. (the "Corporation") operates as a bank holding company headquartered in Monroe, Michigan. The Corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of Michigan in January 2000, at the direction of the management of Monroe Bank & Trust (the "Bank"), for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company by acquiring all the outstanding shares of Monroe Bank & Trust. At the April 6, 2000 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Monroe Bank & Trust, shareholders approved a proposal that resulted in the Bank merging with Monroe Interim Bank, a state chartered bank, which was a subsidiary of the Corporation. On July 1, 2000, the merger of Monroe Bank & Trust and Monroe Interim Bank was completed, with Monroe Bank & Trust becoming the wholly owned subsidiary of MBT Financial Corp.

Monroe Bank & Trust was incorporated and chartered as Monroe State Savings Bank under the laws of the State of Michigan in 1905. In 1940, Monroe Bank & Trust consolidated with Dansard Bank and moved to the present address of its main office. Monroe Bank & Trust operated as a unit bank until 1950 when it opened its first branch office in Ida, Michigan. It then continued its expansion to its present total of 22 branch offices, including its main office. Monroe Bank & Trust changed its name from "Monroe State Savings Bank" to "Monroe Bank & Trust" in 1968.

Monroe Bank & Trust provides customary retail and commercial banking and trust services to its customers, including checking and savings accounts, time deposits, safe deposit facilities, commercial loans, personal loans, real estate mortgage loans, installment loans, IRAs, ATM and night depository facilities, personal trust, employee benefit and investment management services. Monroe Bank & Trust's service areas are comprised of Monroe and Wayne counties in Southern Michigan.

Monroe Bank & Trust's deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to applicable legal limits and Monroe Bank & Trust is supervised and regulated by the FDIC and Michigan Financial Institutions Bureau.

COMPETITION
MBT Financial Corp., through its subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust, operates in a highly competitive industry. Monroe Bank & Trust's main competition comes from other commercial banks, national or state savings and loan institutions, securities brokers, mortgage bankers, finance companies and insurance companies. Banks generally compete with other financial institutions through the banking products and services offered, the pricing of services, the level of service provided, the convenience and availability of services, and the degree of expertise and personal manner in which these services are offered. Monroe Bank & Trust encounters strong competition from most of the financial institutions in Monroe Bank & Trust's extended market area.

EMPLOYEES
MBT Financial Corp. has no employees other than its three officers, each of whom is also an employee and officer of Monroe Bank & Trust and who serve in their capacity as officers of MBT Financial Corp. without compensation. As of December 31, 2000, Monroe Bank & Trust had 326 full-time employees and 18 part-time employees. Monroe Bank & Trust provides a number of benefits for its full-time employees, including health and life insurance, workers' compensation, social security, paid vacations, numerous bank services, a 401(k) plan and a Money Purchase Pension Plan.

*Per-share amounts are based upon 20,000,000 common shares outstanding for each of the five years presented. The reorganization into a one-bank holding company in 2000 resulted in an exchange of Monroe Bank & Trust stock for MBT Financial Corp. stock. The exchange rate was two shares of MBT Financial Corp. stock for each share of Monroe Bank & Trust, causing an increase of 10,000,000 shares outstanding. All per-share amounts have been restated to reflect this transaction.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

With the exception of historical information, the matters discussed or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-K may contain certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties including, but not limited to, economic conditions, product demand and industry capability, competitive products and pricing, new product development, the regulatory and trade environment, and other risks indicated in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We experienced a small decrease in earnings in 1998, as Net Income decreased $1,291,623, or 7%. Net Interest Income had a small increase of $3,065,875, or 8%, as interest rates showed a small decrease in the fourth quarter. The $58,526,540 increase in Net Loans, the $41,409,726 increase in Held to Maturity Obligations of U.S. Government Agencies, and the $34,140,651 increase in Other Securities were primarily funded by the 14% increase in deposits of $114,979,861. The local economy remained healthy and we had a small increase in real estate loans, a significant increase in commercial and industrial loans, and a modest increase in loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures. We increased our Allowance for Loan Losses $900,000, as a result of the growth in loans. Salaries and Employee Benefits increased 51% over last year, primarily as a result of charges related to the deferred compensation plan, as discussed in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. Income Before Provision for Income Taxes decreased $2,057,778, or 9%, compared to 1997, and with the increase in investment in Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions, our Provision for Income Taxes decreased $766,155, or 13%. Our effective tax rate was 24.2% in 1998.

Earnings increased slightly in 1999, as Net Income increased $508,673, or 3%. Net Interest Income increased $1,325,658, or 3% as the Federal Reserve increased managed interest rates three times, by a total of 0.75% in the second half of the year. Two significant investment strategies that were developed to increase Net Interest Income were deployed by the Bank in the second half of 1999. The first involved reinvesting the maturities of our short term Held to Maturity Other Securities into Held to Maturity Obligations of U.S. Government Agencies. As a result, Held to Maturity Other Securities decreased $53,577,661, or 86% and Held to Maturity Obligations of U.S. Government Agencies increased $74,513,446, or 98%. The second strategy deployed involved the use of Federal Home Loan Bank advances to fund a portfolio of three to ten year, non-callable corporate bonds. This resulted in the creation of the $96,794,073 Available for Sale Other Securities portfolio. Net Loans showed a slight increase of $13,576,076, or 2%, as rising interest rates and increased competition affected our loan volume. We experienced a small increase in real estate loans, a small decrease in commercial and industrial loans, and a significant increase in loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures. The loan growth was funded primarily by a 3% increase in deposits. We increased our Provision for Loan Losses $6,170,497, or 192%, and loans charged off, net of recoveries, increased $8,270,497, or 357% as we recognized losses on several large non-performing commercial and industrial loans. This resulted in a decrease of $1,200,000, or 11%, in the Allowance for Loan Losses. Salaries and Employee Benefits decreased 37% due to the charges related to the deferred compensation plan in 1998, as mentioned above and discussed in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. Income Before Provision for Income Taxes increased $414,225, or 2%, compared to 1998, and with the slight increase in investment in Obligation of States and Political Subdivisions, our Provision for Income Taxes decreased $94,448, or 2%. Our effective tax rate was 23.4% in 1999.

In 2000, Net Income increased significantly as the Corporation produced record earnings. Net Income increased $4,104,236, or 24%, compared to 1999, as interest rates continued to rise. Deposits showed a small increase of 5%, as most of the asset growth was funded by an increase of $100,000,000, or 80%, in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. We experienced a significant increase of 16% in Net Loans as the local economy continued its expansion. Most of the loan growth was in loans secured by real estate, which increased 25%. Loans to individuals for household, family and other personal expenditures increased 4%, and commercial and industrial loans decreased 4%. We increased our Allowance for Loan

7

Losses $700,000 over the prior year-end, as necessitated by the increase in Net Loans. Income Before Provision for Income Taxes increased $6,928,013, or 31%, compared to 1999, but with our smaller average percentage investment in Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions in 2000, our Provision for Income Taxes showed a large increase of $2,823,822, or 54%. Our effective tax rate increased from 23.4% to 27.5%.

Earnings for the Bank are usually highly reflective of the Net Interest Income. In 1998, interest rates showed no movement until a small decrease in the fourth quarter, but with the increase in Provision for Loan Losses, as well as the large increase in expense associated with the deferred compensation plan termination, Net Income decreased 7%. In 1999, interest rates increased in the third and fourth quarters, but with the large decrease in Salaries and Employee Benefits, and the increase in Provision for Loan Losses, Net Income increased 3%. In 2000, interest rates continued to climb, with the prime rate increasing 100 basis points in the first half of the year. Interest income increased $16.4 million, or 20% compared to 1999. Approximately $10.8 million of that increase was due to the increase in interest earning assets and $5.6 million was due to the increase in yields on the assets. Interest expense increased $11.4 million, or 30%. Approximately $8.0 million of that increase was due to the increase in interest bearing liabilities and $3.4 million was due to the increase in interest rates. As a result, Net Interest Income increased $5.0 million, or 11% over 1999. Growth in the balance sheet accounted for $2.7 million of the increase while the higher interest rates accounted for $2.3 million of the increase. Along with a moderating Provision for Loan Losses, non-interest income increasing significantly and non-interest expense increasing only modestly, the result was a significant increase in Net Income. The significant increase in non-interest income was the result of estate settlement fees collected by the Trust department and an increase in service charges that was implemented late in the third quarter of 1999. The modest increase in non-interest expense was the result of an increase in salaries expense. Staffing was increased in several areas, including branch operations, as the Bank continued to grow. Average cost of interest bearing deposits was 4.5%, 4.4%, and 4.8% for 1998, 1999, and 2000, respectively. The table below shows selected financial ratios for the same three years.

                                                    2000         1999          1998

Due to a variety of reasons, including volatile interest rates in the past and successful bidding in securing local municipal deposits, we have attempted, for the last several years, to maintain a liquid investment position. Although the percentage of securities held as Available for Sale decreased from 31% as of December 31, 1999 to 26% as of December 31, 2000, we were able to maintain liquidity by investing in shorter-term securities. As reflected in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the percentage of securities that mature within five years increased from 31% as of December 31, 1999 to 37% as of December 31, 2000. The table below presents the scheduled maturities for each of the investment categories, and the average yield on the amounts maturing. The yields presented for the Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions are not tax equivalent yields. The interest income on these securities is

exempt from federal income tax. The Corporation's marginal federal income tax rate is thirty-five percent.

Our loan policies also reflect our awareness for liquidity. We have shortened the average terms for most of our loan portfolios, in particular real estate mortgages, the majority of which are normally written for five years or less. Additionally, we increased our capacity to borrow Federal funds from our correspondent banks in 1999 and we increased our borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. This provides additional liquidity without incurring the opportunity cost associated with holding short maturity investments. The following table shows the maturities or repricing opportunities (whichever is earlier) for the Bank's interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities at December 31, 2000. The repricing assumptions shown are consistent with those established by the Bank's Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO). Savings accounts and regular NOW accounts are non-maturing, variable rate deposits, which may reprice as often as weekly, but are not included in the zero to six month category because in actual practice, these deposits are only repriced if there is a large change in market interest rates. Super NOW accounts and Money Market deposits are also non-maturing, variable rate deposits, however, these accounts are included in the zero to six month category because they may get repriced following smaller changes in market rates.

For 2001, we expect interest rates to decrease through the first half of the year. We anticipate that the falling rates will have the desired effect of preventing a recession in the national economy. However, we expect our region to experience lower growth than the national economy as the manufacturing sector, particularly automotive related, may be weaker than other sectors. This may translate into slower local loan demand and lower deposit growth. As a result of the decreasing interest rates and the slower loan growth mentioned above, we expect a small increase in Net Interest Income. Due to the weakening in the economy, we expect to incur an increase in the Provision for Loan Losses in order to maintain an adequate Allowance for Loan Losses. Anticipating no significant changes in non-interest income and non-interest expenses, we expect very little change in Net Income.

The following is an analysis of the transactions in the allowance for loan losses:

Each period the provision for loan losses in the income statement results from the combination of an estimate by Management of loan losses that occurred during the current period and the ongoing adjustment of prior estimates of losses occurring in prior periods.

To serve as a basis for making this provision, the Bank maintains an extensive credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors including: current economic conditions affecting the Bank's customers, the payment performance of individual large loans and pools of homogeneous small loans, portfolio seasoning, changes in collateral values, and detailed reviews of specific large loan relationships. For large loans deemed to be impaired due to an expectation that all contractual payments will probably not be received, impairment is measured by comparing the Bank's recorded investment in the loan to the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral, or the loan's observable market price. Year-end nonperforming assets, which include nonaccrual loans and securities, and other real estate owned, increased $1,070,562, or 5.5% from 1999 to 2000. Nonperforming assets as a percent of total loans at year-end decreased from 2.7% in 1999 to 2.5% in 2000. The Allowance for Loan Losses as a percent of nonperforming assets at year-end increased from 51.3% in 1999 to 52.0% in 2000.

The provision for loan losses increases the allowance for loan losses, a valuation account which is netted against loans on the consolidated statements of condition. As the specific customer and amount of a loan loss is confirmed by gathering additional information, taking collateral in full or partial settlement of the loan, bankruptcy of the borrower, etc., the loan is charged off, reducing the allowance for loan losses. If, subsequent to a charge off, the Bank is able to collect additional amounts from the customer or obtain control of collateral worth more than earlier estimated, a recovery is recorded.

Prior to January 1, 2000, the Bank assessed its Information Technology (IT) systems, including hardware and software, to ensure that the century date change would not lead to problems such as system failures or erroneous results in calculations involving dates. Management also conferred with its third party vendors and customers to assess their Y2K readiness and tested non-IT systems. To date, there have not been any significant problems affecting the Bank or any of its customers or vendors.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Bank faces market risk to the extent that the fair values of its financial instruments are affected by changes in interest rates. The Bank does not face market risk due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, or equity prices. The asset/liability management process of the Bank seeks to monitor and manage the amount of interest rate risk. This is accomplished by analyzing the differences in repricing opportunities for assets and liabilities (gap analysis, as shown in Item 7), by simulating operating results under varying interest rate scenarios, and by estimating the change in the net present value of the Bank's assets and liabilities due to interest rate changes.

14

Each month, the Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), which includes the senior management of the Bank, estimates the effect of interest rate changes on the projected net interest income of the Bank. The sensitivity of the Bank's net interest income to changes in interest rates is measured by using a computer based simulation model to estimate the impact on earnings of a gradual increase or decrease of 100 basis points in the prime rate. The net interest income projections are compared to a base case projection, which assumes no changes in interest rates. The table below summarizes the net interest income sensitivity as of December 31, 2000.

The Bank's Asset/Liability Committee has established limits in the acceptable amount of interest rate risk, as measured by the change in the Bank's projected net interest income, in its policy. Throughout 2000, the estimated variability of the net interest income was within the Bank's established policy limits.

The ALCO also monitors interest rate risk by estimating the effect of changes in interest rates on the economic value of the Bank's equity each month. The actual economic value of the Bank's equity is first determined by subtracting the fair value of the Bank's liabilities from the fair value of the Bank's assets. The fair values are determined in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Bank estimates the interest rate risk by calculating the effect of market interest rate shocks on the economic value of its equity. For this analysis, the Bank assumes immediate increases or decreases of 100 and 200 basis points in the prime lending rate. The discount rates used to determine the present values of the loans and deposits, as well as the prepayment rates for the loans, are based on Management's expectations of the effect of the

15

rate shock on the market for loans and deposits. The table below summarizes the amount of interest rate risk to the fair value of the Bank's assets and liabilities and to the economic value of the Bank's equity.

Report of Independent Public Accountants

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors,
MBT FINANCIAL CORP.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of condition of MBT FINANCIAL CORP. (a Michigan corporation) as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and changes in stockholders' equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. These consolidated financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Bank's Management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MBT FINANCIAL CORP. as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules on pages 53 through 55 are presented for purposes of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MBT Financial Corp. (the "Corporation") and its subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust (the "Bank"). The Bank operates twenty-one offices in Monroe County, Michigan and one office in Wayne County, Michigan. The Bank's primary source of revenue is from providing loans to customers, who are predominantly small and middle-market businesses and middle-income individuals.

At the April 6, 2000 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Monroe Bank & Trust, shareholders approved a proposal that resulted in the Bank reorganizing into a one-bank holding company. The holding company formation involved merging Monroe Bank & Trust with Monroe Interim Bank, a state chartered bank organized solely for the purpose of this transaction. The merger of Monroe Bank & Trust and Monroe Interim Bank, a combination of entities under common control, was treated in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. The financial information for all prior periods was restated in the consolidated financial statements for MBT Financial Corp. to present the statements as if the merger had been in effect for all periods presented.

The reorganization resulted in an exchange of the Monroe Bank & Trust common stock for MBT Financial Corp. common stock. The exchange rate was two shares of MBT Financial Corp. for each share of Monroe Bank & Trust. Monroe Bank & Trust previously had 10,000,000 common shares authorized and outstanding, with a par value of $3.125 per share. MBT Financial Corp. has 30,000,000 shares authorized, of which 20,000,000 are outstanding. The MBT Financial Corp. common stock has no par value. Monroe Bank & Trust is now a wholly owned subsidiary of MBT Financial Corp., a registered bank holding company.

The accounting and reporting policies of the Bank conform to practice within the banking industry and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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.

The significant accounting policies are as follows:

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investment securities that are "held to maturity" are stated at cost, adjusted for accumulated amortization of premium and accretion of discount. The Bank has the intention and, in Management's opinion, the ability to hold these investment securities until maturity. Investment securities that are "available for sale" are stated at estimated market value, with the related unrealized gains and losses reported as an amount, net of taxes, as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation of $16,510,468 in 2000 and $14,705,330 in 1999. The Bank uses both straight-line and declining-balance methods to provide for depreciation, which is charged to operations over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation expense amounted to $1,805,138 in 2000, $1,422,238 in 1999, and $1,197,618 in 1998.

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. The cost of assets retired and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in operations in the year the assets are retired.

OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED

23

Other real estate owned is carried at the lesser of 80% of the appraised value of the property or the principal balance of the loan at the time of foreclosure.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive Income is comprised of Net Income and Other Comprehensive Income, which consists of the change in net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale, net of tax.

STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, time deposits with other banks with maturities of less than three months, and Federal funds sold.

(2) LOANS The Bank grants commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans primarily to customers in Monroe County, Michigan and surrounding areas. Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent on the automotive, manufacturing, and real estate development economic sectors.

Loans at December 31 consist of the following:

                                                                  2000                 1999

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

Loans are placed in a nonaccrual status when, in the opinion of Management, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Loans in a nonaccrual status amounted to $17,161,449 and $16,791,776 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In the opinion of Management, all impaired loans are in nonaccrual status. Allowances for these loans are included in the allowance for loan losses. All cash received on nonaccrual loans is applied to the principal balance.

Included in loans are loans to certain officers, directors, and companies in which such officers and directors have 10 percent or more beneficial ownership in the aggregate amount of $24,448,451 and $17,112,941 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In 2000, new loans and other additions amounted to $14,234,463, and repayments and other reductions amounted to $6,898,953. In Management's judgment, these loans were made on substantially the same terms and conditions as those made to other borrowers, and do not represent more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.

(3) ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Activity in the allowance for loan losses was as follows:

                                     2000                  1999                 1998
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Balance beginning of year       $     9,900,000     $    11,100,000      $   10,200,000
Provision for loan losses             6,298,461           9,388,041           3,217,544
Loans charged off                    (8,126,386)        (11,556,352)         (3,877,526)
Recoveries                            2,527,925             968,311           1,559,982
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Balance end of year             $    10,600,000     $     9,900,000      $   11,100,000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Each period the provision for loan losses in the income statement results from the combination of an estimate by Management of loan losses that occurred during the current period and the ongoing adjustment of prior estimates of losses occurring in prior periods.

To serve as a basis for making this provision, the Bank maintains an extensive credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors including: current economic conditions affecting the Bank's customers, the payment performance of individual large loans and pools of homogeneous small loans, portfolio seasoning, changes in collateral values, and detailed reviews of specific large loan relationships. For large loans deemed to be impaired due to an expectation that all contractual payments will probably not be received, impairment is measured by comparing the Bank's recorded investment in the loan to the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral, or the loan's observable market price.

The provision for loan losses increases the allowance for loan losses, a valuation account which is netted against loans on the consolidated statements of condition. As the specific customer and amount of a loan loss is confirmed by gathering additional information, taking collateral in full or partial settlement of the loan, bankruptcy of the borrower, etc., the loan is charged off, reducing the allowance for loan losses. If, subsequent to a charge off, the Bank is able to collect additional amounts from the customer or obtain control of collateral worth more than earlier estimated, a recovery is recorded.

(4) INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The following is a summary of the Bank's investment securities portfolio as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 (000's omitted):

At December 31, 2000, investment securities carried at $66,007,275 were pledged or set aside to secure public deposits and for other purposes as required by law.

26

At December 31, 2000, Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions included securities carried at $541,589 that were more than ninety days past due on their interest payments. These securities are in nonaccrual status.

The Bank elected early adoption of SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", effective April 1, 1999. The provisions of SFAS 133 required the Bank to recognize all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities in its statement of condition and to report them at their fair value. The provisions of SFAS 133 also allowed the Bank to reclassify securities that were classified as Held to Maturity to Available for Sale or Trading. Upon adoption of SFAS 133, the Bank reclassified certain Held to Maturity Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions as Available for Sale Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions. The value of the securities reclassified on April 1, 1999 was $7,990,185.

(5) DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Certain of the Bank's assets and liabilities which are financial instruments have fair values which differ from their carrying values in the accompanying consolidated statements of condition. These fair values, along with the methods and assumptions used to estimate such fair values, are discussed below. The fair values of all financial instruments not discussed below are estimated to be equal to their carrying values as of December 31, 2000 and 1999.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Fair value for the Bank's investment securities was determined using the market value at December 31, 2000 and 1999. These Estimated Market Values are disclosed in Note 4.

LOANS, NET

The fair value of all loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows associated with the loans, using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The estimated fair value of loans at December 31, 2000, net of the allowance for loan losses, is $796,811,809, compared to the carrying value of $801,522,817. The estimated fair value of loans at December 31, 1999, net of the allowance for loan losses, was $686,716,607, compared to the carrying value of $693,481,905.

OTHER TIME DEPOSITS

The fair value of other time deposits, consisting of fixed maturity certificates of deposit, is estimated by discounting the related cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The estimated fair value of other time deposits at December 31, 2000 is $466,499,557, compared to the carrying value of $468,128,395. The estimated fair value of other time deposits at December 31, 1999 was $428,520,407, compared to the carrying value of $430,066,684.

FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK ADVANCES

The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated by discounting the related cash flows using the rates at which the Bank would be able to obtain replacement advances for the remaining maturities. The estimated fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances at December 31, 2000 is $224,268,617, compared to the carrying value of $225,000,000. The estimated fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances at December 31, 1999 was $123,587,003, compared to the carrying value of $125,000,000.

OFF-BALANCE-SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are estimated using the fees currently charged to engage into similar agreements. The fair values of these instruments are not significant.

(6) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be reversed. The Corporation and the Bank file a consolidated Federal income tax return.

The provision for Federal income taxes consists of the following:

                                                                 2000                     1999                       1998

The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate applicable to corporations as a result of permanent differences between accounting and taxable income as follows:

                                                       2000                 1999                   1998

(7) RESTRICTIONS ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS The Bank is required by regulatory agencies to maintain legal reserve requirements based on the level of balances in deposit categories. Cash balances restricted from usage due to these requirements were $12,698,000 and $12,938,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

(8) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY On December 21, 2000, the Corporation's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 2 million shares of MBT Financial Corp. common stock during the two-year period beginning January 2, 2001.

On July 1, 2000, the Bank merged with Monroe Interim Bank, becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Corporation has 30,000,000 common shares authorized, with no par value. As of December 31, 2000, 20,000,000 were issued and outstanding.

On February 29, 2000, the Bank redeemed its preferred stock. Preferred stock consisted of 2,000 shares of $100 par value, non-voting, cumulative preferred stock. The preferred stock was redeemed at its par value, plus accrued dividends.

On April 2, 1998, the Bank's Board of Directors approved the transfer of $31,250,000 to capital surplus fom undivided profits.

(9) RETIREMENT PLANS In 2000, the Bank implemented a retirement plan that includes both a money purchase pension plan, as well as a voluntary profit sharing 401(k) plan for all employees who meet certain age and length of service eligibility requirements. The Bank contributes an amount equal to four percent of the employee's base salary to all eligible employees of the money purchase plan. For the 401(k) plan, an employee may contribute up to ten percent of his or her base salary, with the Bank matching the contribution up to the first six percent of the employee's annual contribution. Depending on the Bank's profitability, an additional profit sharing contribution may be made by the Bank to the 401(k) plan. The total retirement plan expense was $799,870 for the year ended December 31, 2000. This included a three percent profit sharing contribution for the year.

In 1999 and 1998 the Bank had a profit sharing plan for all employees who met certain age and length of service eligibility requirements. An employee could contribute a minimum of six percent, but not more than ten percent of annual base salary, while the Bank`s contribution was fifteen percent of the employee's annual base salary. The expense attributable to the Bank's profit sharing plan was $609,142 in 1999 and $585,470 in 1998.

Through October 14, 1998, the Bank maintained a deferred compensation plan for certain key officers under which the officers could defer a portion of their compensation in exchange for certain phantom stock rights. The value of the rights exchanged was equal to the average trading price for the month prior to exchange. The phantom stock rights entitled the holder to receive the benefit of all cash dividends on the common stock as well as the appreciation of that stock. The plan was terminated in October, 1998 upon approval of the Board of Directors. The expense related to the plan was approximately $7,234,000 in 1998. The total liability relating to the plan as of termination was approximately $17,356,000, which was distributed in the first quarter of 1999.

The Bank has a postretirement benefit plan that generally provides for the continuation of medical benefits for all employees who retire from the Bank at age 55 or older, upon meeting certain length of service eligibility requirements. The Bank does not fund its postretirement benefit obligation. Rather, payments are made as costs are incurred by covered retirees. The amount of benefits paid under the postretirement benefit plan was $64,417 in 2000, $58,826 in 1999, and $42,222 in 1998.

A reconciliation of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation ("APBO") to the amounts recorded in the consolidated statements of condition at December 31 is as follows:

Components of the Bank's postretirement benefit expense were as follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net postretirement benefit expense            $ 177,689    $183,397   $ 161,599
================================================================================

The APBO as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 was calculated using assumed discount rates of 7.50% and 7.75%, respectively. Health care costs were assumed to rise 6.70% in 2001, with the assumed rate of increase decreasing uniformly each year thereafter to a minimum of 5.50% in 2005 and thereafter. To illustrate the significance of these assumptions, a rise in the assumed rate of health care cost increases of 1.00% each year would change the APBO as of December 31, 2000 by 1.31%, or $18,739.

(10) DEPOSITS

Interest expense on time certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more in the year 2000 amounted to $14,421,190, as compared with $12,411,822 in 1999 and $11,071,564 in 1998. At December 31, 2000, the balance of time certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more was $221,421,310, as compared with $206,890,777 at December 31, 1999.

(11) REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Corporation and the Bank 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 Corporation's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Corporation's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Corporation's 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 Corporation to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the accompanying tables) of Total and Tier I capital to risk weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to average assets.

As of December 31, 2000, the Corporation's capital ratios exceeded the required minimums to be considered well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Corporation must maintain minimum Total risk based, Tier I risk based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the tables. There are no conditions or events since

On July 1, 2000, the Corporation issued options for 126,600 shares of its common stock to certain key executives of the Bank in accordance with the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan that was approved by shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 6, 2000. The options were granted at the price of $18.125, which was the fair market value of the Corporation's common stock on the date the options were granted. The average market value of the stock during 2000 was $16.81. The options granted as of December 31, 2000 have an anti-dilutive effect on the calculation of earnings per share, and therefore have not been included.

(13) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN

The Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan approved by shareholders at the April 6, 2000 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Monroe Bank & Trust authorized the Board of Directors to grant nonqualified stock options to key employees of the Bank. Such grants may be made until January 2, 2010 for up to 1,000,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock. The amount that may be awarded to any one individual is limited to 100,000 shares in any one calendar year.

Stock options granted under the plan have exercise prices equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. Options granted under the plan may be exercised for a period of no more than ten years from the date of grant. One-third of the options granted in 2000 vest annually, beginning December 31, 2000.

The Corporation applies the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations in accounting for its stock plans as allowed under SFAS Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Had compensation cost for the stock options granted in 2000 been determined consistent with the fair value method of SFAS No. 123, pro forma net income for the year ended December 31, 2000 would have been $21,082,289, basic earnings per share would have been $1.05, and diluted earnings per share would have been $1.05, compared to the reported net income of $21,173,523, basic earnings per share of $1.06, and diluted earnings per share of $1.06.

During the year ended December 31, 2000, options were granted for 126,600 shares with an exercise price of $18.125. No options were exercised, cancelled, or lapsed, leaving options on 126,600 shares

32

outstanding at an exercise price of $18.125 as of December 31, 2000. Of the options outstanding, 42,203 were exercisable on December 31, 2000 at a price of $18.125.

Under current regulations, the Bank is limited in the amount it may loan to the Corporation. Loans to the Corporation may not exceed ten percent of the Bank's capital stock, surplus, and undivided profits plus the allowance for loan losses. Loans from the Bank to the Corporation are required to be collateralized.

Federal and state banking laws and regulations place certain restrictions on the amount of dividends a bank may make to its parent company. The Bank can pay dividends of $23,504,547 in 2001, in addition to its 2001 net income, without regulatory approval.

(15) INTEREST RECEIVABLE AND OTHER ASSETS

The Bank includes the cash surrender value of Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) in Interest Receivable and Other Assets on the accompanying consolidated statements of condition. The cash surrender value of the BOLI was $14,222,346 at December 31, 2000. The following is a description of the components of the BOLI.

DIRECTOR SPLIT-DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE

On December 21, 2000, the Bank entered into director split-dollar life insurance agreements with each of its ten directors. Under the split-dollar agreement, the policy's interests are divided between the Bank and the director. The Bank owns the cash surrender value, including the accumulated policy earnings, with each director's beneficiaries receiving a fixed amount that is based on his or her years of director service and the Bank receiving the remainder of the death benefits. The Bank fully paid the premiums for these ten policies with one lump sum premium payment in the amount of $4,937,000.

The increase in cash surrender value is recorded as "other non-interest income." The Bank expects to recover in full the cash value from the Bank's portion of the policies' death benefits. The directors' death

34

benefits are $500,000 for director service of less than 3 years, $600,000 for service up to 5 years, $750,000 for service up to 10 years, and $1,000,000 for director service of 10 years or more.

SALARY CONTINUATION AGREEMENT AND LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

The Bank entered into a Salary Continuation Agreement with Ronald D. LaBeau, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank on December 27, 2000. This agreement provides that the Bank will pay an annual salary continuation benefit of $139,600 to Mr. LaBeau or his designated beneficiaries for 10 years after his retirement on or after reaching the normal retirement age of 65.

At the same time it entered into the Salary Continuation Agreement with Mr. LaBeau, the Bank purchased an insurance policy on Mr. LaBeau's life, with a single premium payment of $5,880,000. The Bank expects to recover in full the premium paid by it from the Bank's portion of the policy's death benefits. If Mr. LaBeau dies before age 65 while in active service to the Bank, his beneficiaries will receive life insurance proceeds of $958,837. If he dies after retirement, his beneficiaries will receive any payments to which Mr. LaBeau would have been entitled under the Salary Continuation Agreement, but none of the life insurance proceeds.

The contractual entitlements under the Salary Continuation Agreement are not funded. These contractual entitlements remain contractual liabilities of Monroe Bank & Trust, payable upon Mr. LaBeau's termination of employment. The life insurance policy is in addition to the split-dollar insurance policy purchased by the Bank on Mr. LaBeau's life for his service as a director, discussed previously, and the split-dollar insurance policy discussed in "Executive Group Term Carve Out Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements" below.

EXECUTIVE GROUP TERM CARVE OUT SPLIT-DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE AGREEMENTS

In addition to insurance policies on the lives of the directors and the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank, the Bank owns life insurance on the lives of several executives, for which the Bank made a single premium payment of $3,213,421 in the aggregate. The Bank and the executives share rights to death benefits payable under the policies. An executive's beneficiaries are entitled to an amount equal to two times the executive's current annual salary, less $50,000 if he or she dies before retirement, or equal to his or her annual salary at the time of termination of employment if he or she dies after retirement. The Bank will receive the remainder of the death benefits. The Bank expects to recover in full the premium paid by it from the Bank's portion of the policy's death benefits or upon the cancellation or purchase of the policies by the executives. The executives also have life insurance benefits under the Bank's group term life insurance program for all employees, which pays benefits up to $50,000 to the executive's beneficiaries if he or she dies while employed by the Bank.

(16) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

The Bank 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. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of condition.

The Bank'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 amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for its other lending activities.

Financial instruments whose contractual amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk at December 31 were as follows:

                                                                     CONTRACTUAL
                                                                        AMOUNT
                                                                    (IN THOUSANDS)
                                                                2000             1999
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commitments to extend credit:
     Unused portion of commercial lines of credit             $110,558          $74,230
     Unused portion of credit card lines of credit              31,217           29,115
     Unused portion of home equity lines of credit              12,887           11,985
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written      16,942           11,834

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. Most commercial lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages or other collateral, generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, and require payment of a fee. Since the lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Credit card lines of credit have no established maturity dates, but are payable on demand. Home equity lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages, have no established maturity dates, but are payable on demand. The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of the collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on Management's credit evaluation of the counterparty.

Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and other business transactions. Approximately $13,564,000 of the letters of credit expires in 2001, with $3,364,000 extending for two to five years, and $14,000 which have no specified expiration date. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. The Board of Directors of Monroe Bank & Trust has twelve monthly meetings, an additional organizational meeting in April each year, and other special meetings as required. As of December 31, 2000, Directors other than Mr. LaBeau were paid $750 for each meeting that they attended and a quarterly retainer fee of $1,500. In addition, the members of the following board committees receive the compensation indicated for each meeting attended: Audit Committee, $500 per meeting attended; Compensation Committee, $250 for each meeting attended; Nominating/Governance Committee, $250 per meeting attended; Trust Committee, $500 for each meeting attended; and Loan Review Committee, $500 for each meeting attended. As an employee, Mr. LaBeau does not receive any compensation for his service as a director.

DIRECTOR SPLIT-DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE AGREEMENTS. In December 2000, Monroe Bank & Trust entered into director split-dollar life insurance agreements with each of its 10 directors. Under the split-dollar agreement, the policy interests are divided between the bank and the director. The bank owns the cash surrender value, including the accumulated policy earnings, with each director's beneficiaries receiving a fixed amount that is based on his or her years of director service and the bank receiving the remainder of the death benefits. The bank fully paid the premiums for these ten policies with one lump sum premium payment in the aggregate of $4,937,000. The bank determined that a lump sum premium is the most financially advantageous way to secure coverage because the premium paid is not an expense and the initial cash surrender value equals the premiums paid. Like any whole life insurance policy, the bank-owned life insurance policy contract has a cash surrender value that increases over time. The bank expects to recover in full premiums paid by it and the earnings credited to the cash value from the bank's portion of the policies' death benefits. The directors' death benefits are $500,000 for director service of less than 3 years, $600,000 for service up to 5 years, $750,000 for service up to 10 years, and $1,000,000 for director service of 10 years or more.

The director's split-dollar death benefit will be paid directly by the insurance company to the named beneficiary, so the bank has no benefit obligation to the director. Because it is the intention of the bank to hold the bank-owned life insurance until the death of the insureds, the increase of cash surrender value should be tax-free income under current tax law. This compares to the taxable gain that the bank would recognize for assets in traditional taxable investments such as U.S. Treasury or agency securities. The collection of death benefits on the policies, which is likewise currently tax free under current federal and state income taxation, is expected to further enhance the bank's return.

The Board believes that the bank-owned life insurance used to fund the director split-dollar plan, the salary continuation agreement for the benefit of the chief executive officer, and the group term carve-out insurance program established for executive officers allows the bank to cost effectively implement compensation programs that serve the vital purpose of attracting, retaining and rewarding valued director and executive officer service.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN. Directors are eligible to receive grants of stock options, stock awards and restricted stock under the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. For 2001, each non-employee director was given the opportunity to exchange all or a portion of his or her quarterly cash retainer for the year for an award of an option to purchase MBT stock under the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, valued using the Black-Scholes stock option pricing model. Each non-employee director elected to receive stock options in place of quarterly cash retainer payments during 2001, with the exception of Mr. Swy, who elected to exchange eighty percent of his quarterly cash retainer payments for stock options. Accordingly, each non-employee director, with the exception of Mr.

39

Swy, has been awarded an option to purchase 1,572 common shares at a fair market value exercise price of $13.94 per share, which option vests on December 31, 2001 and has a term expiring January 2, 2011. Mr. Swy has been awarded an option to purchase 1,258 common shares on the same terms.

(A) The amounts shown in this column for the most recently completed fiscal year were derived from the following: (1) contributions by Monroe Bank & Trust to the Monroe Bank & Trust 401(k) Plan: Mr. LaBeau, $15,300; Mr. Bruck, $7,920; Mr. Morr, $7,920; Mr. Greutman, $7,650; and Mr. Lock, $6,660; and (2) contributions by Monroe Bank & Trust to the Money Purchase Pension Plan of Monroe Bank & Trust: Mr. LaBeau, $8,400; Mr. Bruck, $3,520; Mr. Morr, $3,520; Mr. Greutman, $3,400; and Mr. Lock, $2,960.

(B) In 2000 Monroe Bank & Trust purchased insurance policies on the lives of the named executive officers. Under the terms of the policies, the Bank is responsible for all of the premium costs but obtains a security interest in the insurance proceeds to ensure that the bank is reimbursed when proceeds become payable or when the policy is cancelled or purchased by the executive. Allocation of the proceeds is as follows: the Bank is first reimbursed for premiums paid; the executive then receives the benefits to which he is entitled; and the Bank receives the remainder, if any. The Bank made a single premium payment in the aggregate amount of $1,355,000 for the split dollar policies on the lives of the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table above. The insurance premium costs and

40

estimated dollar value of the benefits these policies may represent to the named executive officers are not reflected in the Summary Compensation Table. The Bank has purchased two additional separate policies on Mr. LaBeau's life. See, "Director Compensation--Director Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements" and "Executive Compensation--Salary Continuation Agreement and Life Insurance Policy" and "Executive Compensation--Executive Group Term Carve-out Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreements." The insurance premium costs and estimated dollar value of the benefits these policies may represent to Mr. LaBeau are likewise not reflected in the Summary Compensation Table.

(1) All options are nonqualified stock options which vest ratably over a three-year period commencing December 31, 2000. All options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. The terms of the Corporation's Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan provide that all options become exercisable in full in the event of a change in control as defined in the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, or the death or disability of the option holder.

(2) The option value was calculated to be $4.97 per share using the Black-Scholes stock option pricing model. In making this calculation, it was assumed that the average exercise period was seven years, the volatility rate was 18.6%, the risk-free rate of return was 6.1%, and the dividend yield was 2.0%.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN. MBT and its shareholders have adopted the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. A total of 1,000,000 shares have been reserved for issuance under the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, subject to adjustment if MBT's capitalization changes as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger or similar event. The plan provides for the award of stock options, stock or restricted stock to any MBT or Monroe Bank & Trust directors, officers, other key employees and consultants designated by a committee of MBT's Board consisting of outside directors, which administers the plan. The committee's authority includes the power to (a) determine who will receive awards under the plan, (b) establish the terms and conditions of awards and the schedule on which options become exercisable (or other awards vest), (c) determine the amount and form of awards, (d) interpret the plan and terms of awards, and (e) adopt rules for administration of the plan. The only awards made under the plan to date are awards of stock options.

Stock options awarded under the plan have terms of up to 10 years and may be nonqualified stock options, meaning stock options that do not qualify under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code for the special tax treatment available for qualified, or "incentive," stock options. Nonqualified stock options may be granted to any eligible plan participant, but incentive stock options may be granted solely to employees of MBT or Monroe Bank & Trust. All stock option awards made to date are nonqualified stock options. The exercise price of incentive stock options may not be less than the fair market value of MBT's common stock on the date of grant, which under the terms of the plan means the average of the bid and asked prices or the fair market value determined by MBT's board if bid and asked prices are not available. The plan does not require that the exercise price of nonqualified stock options be at least equal to the fair market value on the grant date, but the exercise price of awards made to date is the fair market value on the date of grant.

An option holder whose service terminates generally has one year after termination within which he may exercise options, forfeiting any options not exercised by the end of one year from termination. An option holder whose service is terminated for cause forfeits all unexercised stock options.

SALARY CONTINUATION AGREEMENT AND LIFE INSURANCE POLICY. MBT and Monroe Bank & Trust entered into a Salary Continuation Agreement with Mr. LaBeau in December 2000, which provides that MBT and Monroe Bank & Trust will pay an annual salary continuation benefit of $139,600 to Mr. LaBeau or his designated beneficiaries for 10 years after his retirement on or after reaching the normal retirement age of 65.

42

For Mr. LaBeau's early retirement (before reaching age 65) or termination before his normal retirement age as a result of disability, the annual salary continuation benefit increases to $139,600 in the ninth year of the Salary Continuation Agreement (but is not actually payable until he reaches normal retirement age), as follows:

At the same time it entered into the Salary Continuation Agreement with Mr. LaBeau, the bank purchased an insurance policy on Mr. LaBeau's life, with a single-premium payment of $5,880,000. The bank expects to recover in full the premium paid by it from the bank's portion of the policy's death benefits. If Mr. LaBeau dies before age 65 but in active service to the bank, his beneficiaries will receive life insurance proceeds of $958,837. If he dies after retirement, his beneficiaries will receive any payments to which Mr. LaBeau would have been entitled under the Salary Continuation Agreement, but none of the life insurance proceeds.

The bank purchased the insurance policy as an informal financing mechanism for the bank's Salary Continuation Agreement obligations arising out of Mr. LaBeau's death before retirement, as well as an investment to fund the bank's post-retirement payment obligations to Mr. LaBeau. Although the bank expects the policy on Mr. LaBeau's life to serve as a source of funds for death benefits payable under his Salary Continuation Agreement, Mr. LaBeau's contractual entitlements under the Salary Continuation Agreement are not funded. These contractual entitlements remain contractual liabilities of Monroe Bank & Trust, payable upon Mr. LaBeau's termination of employment. The life insurance policy is in addition to the split-dollar insurance policy purchased by the bank on Mr. LaBeau's life for his service as a director, discussed in "Director Compensation-Director Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements," and the split-dollar policy discussed in "Executive Compensation-- Executive Group Term Carve-out Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreements" below.

This informally funded life insurance program is not expected to result in any material cost to MBT Financial Corp. or Monroe Bank & Trust. As noted previously in the discussion of "Director Compensation-Director Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements," the bank-owned life insurance policy is expected to have an increasing cash surrender value over time. The $5,880,000 insurance premium is

43

designed to earn sufficient income on the insurance policy's cash surrender value that will offset the after-tax expense of the accrual for the bank's supplemental executive retirement plan with Mr. LaBeau.

EXECUTIVE GROUP TERM CARVE-OUT SPLIT DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE AGREEMENTS. Adequate life insurance coverage for other key executives is an essential component of the compensation necessary to retain and reward excellent executive officer service. In addition to insurance policies on the lives of directors and the President and Chief Executive Officer, Monroe Bank & Trust owns additional insurance on the lives of Messrs. LaBeau, Bruck, Morr, Greutman and Lock, for which the bank made a single premium payment of $1,355,000 in the aggregate. The bank and the executives share rights to death benefits payable under the policies. An executive's beneficiaries are entitled to an aggregate amount equal to (a) twice the executive's current annual salary at the time of death, less $50,000, if he dies before retirement, and (b) the executive's current annual salary at the time his employment terminated if he dies after retirement or if his employment shall have previously terminated due to disability. The bank will receive the remainder of death benefits. The bank expects to recover in full the premium paid by it from the bank's portion of the policy's death benefits or upon the cancellation or purchase of the policies by the executives. The executives also have life insurance benefits under the bank's group term life insurance program for all employees, a program paying benefits up to $50,000 to an executive's beneficiaries if he dies while employed by the bank.

The death benefit payable to the executive will be paid directly by the insurance company to the named beneficiary. As such, the bank has no benefit obligation to the participants in the executive group term carve-out split dollar life insurance plan. This bank-owned life insurance program is not expected to result in any material cost to MBT or the bank, and the bank-owned life insurance is expected to increase MBT's non-interest income in future operating periods. The executive group term carve-out split dollar life insurance plan was a replacement for the executives' participation in the bank's group term life insurance program (except for the non-taxable $50,000 group term life insurance death benefit). The executive group term carve-out split dollar life insurance plan provides comparable life insurance coverage to what the executives had under the bank's group term life insurance program for all employees, while reducing the annual increasing expense of group term life insurance and replacing it with an earning asset.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

OVERVIEW AND PHILOSOPHY. The Board of Directors of MBT Financial Corp. has established a Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for developing and making recommendations to the Board with respect to MBT Financial Corp.'s executive compensation policies. There are no interlocking relationships between any members of the Compensation Committee.

Pursuant to authority delegated by the Board, the Compensation Committee determines annually the compensation to be paid to the Chief Executive Officer and each other executive officer. The Compensation Committee also structures and monitors all contracts with executive officers which include the Salary Continuation Agreement with Mr. LaBeau and the split-dollar life insurance agreements. Compensation decisions with respect to executive officers are based upon the factors discussed below, rather than any obligation set forth in such contracts.

The Compensation Committee has available to it an outside compensation consultant, and has worked with the consultant to gather comparative compensation data from independent sources and to develop a strategy which links pay to performance.

44

The objectives of MBT's executive compensation program are to:

- Support the achievement of desired goals of MBT.
- Provide compensation that will attract and retain superior talent and reward performance.
- Align the executive officers' interests with those of shareholders by placing a significant portion of pay at risk with payout dependent upon corporate performance, both on a short-term and long-term basis.

The executive compensation program provides an overall level of compensation opportunity that is competitive within the banking industry. Actual compensation levels may be greater or less than average competitive levels in surveyed companies based upon annual and long-term MBT performance, as well as individual performance. The Compensation Committee uses its discretion to set executive compensation where, in its judgment, external, internal or an individual's circumstances warrant.

COMPENSATION MATTERS IN 2000. During 2000 the Compensation Committee increased the levels of base salary of the Chief Executive Officer and certain other Executive Officers. The increases in base salary were based upon an analysis of compensation levels for management performing similar functions at other banking companies of similar size and operations.

The Board of Directors also changed the measurement of the performance of the Corporation for the purpose of determining the annual cash bonuses to be paid to employees, including the Chief Executive Officer and other Executive Officers, from return on assets to net operating income for the year 2000. The Compensation Committee views net operating income as a better measure of annual performance of the Corporation for purposes of providing annual cash bonuses to the Chief Executive Officer, other Executive Officers and employees of the Corporation.

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors approved the Salary Continuation Agreement for the Chief Executive Officer and the Split-Dollar Life Insurance Policies for the Executive Officers that were implemented in 2000 to provide retirement income for the Chief Executive Officer and life insurance for the Executive Officers on a competitive basis as an important component of overall compensation.

EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION PROGRAM. MBT's executive officer compensation program is comprised of base salary, annual cash incentive compensation, longer-term incentive compensation in the form of stock options and various benefits.

BASE SALARY. Base salary levels for MBT's executive officers are attempted to be set relative to companies in the banking industry of similar size and complexity of operations, as described above. In determining salaries, the Compensation Committee also takes into account individual experience and performance, MBT performance and specific issues particular to MBT.

ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. The Monroe Bank & Trust Annual Incentive Plan is MBT's annual incentive program for all employees, including Executive Officers. The purpose of the plan is to provide direct financial incentives in the form of an annual cash bonus to executives to achieve MBT's annual goals. For 2000, the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board of Directors selected net operating income as the measurement of the Corporation's performance, with threshold and target goals set for determining cash bonus opportunities for all employees, including Executive Officers. The amount distributed to each participant in the Annual Incentive Plan is based on his or her base salary and is weighted to reflect each participant's ability to affect the performance of the Corporation, with the Chief Executive Officer having the largest weighting. For net operating income in excess of the target goal set,

45

each participant receives a ratable increase in his or her cash bonus. MBT exceeded its target goal for net operating income in 2000. The achievement of this corporate goal represented the entire cash bonus for each Executive Officer for 2000.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVES. Stock options awarded in 2000 under the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan constitute MBT's long-term incentive plan for executive officers. The objectives of the stock option awards are to align executive and shareholder long-term interests by creating a strong and direct link between executive pay and shareholder return, and to enable executives to develop and maintain a long-term stock ownership position in MBT's common shares.

The Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan authorizes a committee of outside directors to award stock options and other stock compensation to key executives. Stock options awarded executive officers in 2000 were granted at an option price equal to the fair market value of MBT common shares on the date of grant, have ten-year terms and have exercise restrictions that lapse ratably over a three-year period. Awards are made at levels considered to be competitive within the banking industry. Significant stock option awards were made to the Executive Officers in 2000 to reflect the fact that they had not been given long-term incentive compensation prior to 2000.

BENEFITS. MBT provides medical benefits to its executive officers that are generally available to all fulltime MBT employees.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION. The base salary of Mr. LaBeau, MBT Financial Corp.'s President and Chief Executive Officer, was increased to $210,000, effective January, 2000, based upon the recommendation of an outside compensation consultant arising from its survey of other banking companies, as described above. Mr. LaBeau received a total of 35,000 stock options in 2000. These stock options were granted based upon the recommended range of stock options for the Chief Executive Officer contained in the compensation consultant's analysis, taking into account the consultant's survey of the practices of other banking companies, as described above. The Salary Continuation Agreement and split-dollar life insurance policies described above were provided to the Chief Executive Officer in 2000 in order to provide retirement and life insurance benefits on a competitive basis.

In respect to the limits on deductibility for federal income tax purposes of compensation paid an executive officer in excess of $1 million, MBT intends to strive to structure components of its executive compensation to achieve maximum deductibility, while at the same time considering the goals of its executive compensation philosophy.

Richard A. Sieb, Chairman
Gerald L. Kiser

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION IN COMPENSATION

DECISIONS

Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission require the disclosure of any related party transactions with members of the Compensation Committee. During the past year, certain directors and

46

officers, including members of the Compensation Committee, and one or more of their associates may have been customers of and had business transactions with Monroe Bank & Trust. All loans included in such transactions were made in the ordinary course of business and on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons, and did not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. It is expected that similar transactions will occur in the future. Although Mr. LaBeau served on the Compensation Committee, he did not participate in any discussions or decisions regarding his compensation.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

TRANSACTIONS WITH DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Directors and executive officers of MBT and their associates were customers of, or had transactions with, Monroe Bank & Trust in the ordinary course of business during 2000. We expect additional transactions to take place in the future. All outstanding loans to directors and executive officers and their associates, commitments and sales, purchases and placements of investment securities and other financial instruments included in such transactions were made in the ordinary course of business, on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral where applicable, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons, and did not involve more than normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features. In addition, Mr. Lipford is a partner in the law firm of Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone, P.L.C., which provides legal services to MBT and Monroe Bank & Trust.

With respect to persons subject to Section 16 of the Act ("Section 16 Persons"), transactions under this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors promulgated under the Act.

The Committee shall have all powers and discretion necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan and to control its operation, including, but not limited to, the power (a) to determine which employees shall be granted Awards, (b) to prescribe the terms, conditions and vesting schedule, if any, of such Awards, (c) to determine the amount and form of Awards granted to Participants, (d) to interpret the Plan and the Awards, (e) to adopt rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith, and (f) to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules subject to Section 12.1 hereof.

The Committee, in their sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as they may provide, may delegate their duties in order to provide for the day-to-day administration of the Plan. The Committee shall control the general administration of the Plan with all powers necessary to enable it to carry out its duties in that respect; provided, however, that the Committee may not delegate its authority and powers (a) with respect to Section 16 Persons, or (b) in any way which is impermissible under Code Section 162(m) or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(3) shares held in a grantor trust. If and to the extent that any


rights with respect to Common Shares shall not be exercised by any Participant for any reason or if such rights shall terminate as provided herein, Common Shares that have not been allocated to such Participant under the Plan shall again become available for allocation to Participants as provided herein.

4.2 Change in Capitalization. In the event of a change in the capitalization of MBT due to a share split, share dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination, or similar event or as may otherwise be equitably required as determined by the aggregate number of Common Shares, the terms of any existing Awards shall be automatically adjusted in proportion to the change in capitalization.

Section V

Eligibility

The Committee shall have the discretion to select directors, officers, executives, managers, consultants, and other key employees of MBT and its Subsidiaries for participation in the Plan. The discretion of the Committee to select such Participants shall be absolute and no person otherwise eligible for participation shall have any right to participate. Only persons so selected shall be deemed "Participants" for purposes hereof.

Section VI

Stock Options

6.1 Grant of Options. Options may be granted to Participants, subject to the provisions of the Plan, at any time and from time to time, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. The Committee shall in its sole discretion, determine the number of Options granted to each Participant; provided, however, that in any one calendar year, no one Participant shall be granted Options to purchase a number of Common Shares in excess of 100,000, adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalization mergers or consolidations. Options granted may be ISOs to employees, NQOs to employees or non-employee Directors, consultants, or a combination thereof.

6.2 Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by a written option agreement (an "Option Agreement") that shall specify the Option Price, the expiration date of the Option, the number of shares to which the Option pertains, any conditions to exercise of the Option, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine. The Option Agreement also shall specify whether the Option is intended to be an ISO or an NQO.

6.3 Option Price. The price for each Common Share deliverable upon the exercise of an Option (the "Option Price") shall be determined at the discretion of the Committee; provided, however, that with respect to ISOs, the Option Price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value at the date of grant. If at the time that an ISO is granted, the Participant owns shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of MBT's or any of its Subsidiaries' capital shares, the Option Price of an ISO shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share on the date that the ISO is granted and any ISO so granted must be exercised not later than five (5) years from the date it is granted.

6.4 Exercise of Options. Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such times, and subject to such restrictions and conditions, as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion, except that any outstanding Options at the time of a Change in Control, or a Participant's death, or Disability will be immediately exercisable without regard to any vesting restrictions attached to such Options. A Participant electing to exercise an Option shall give written notice of such election to MBT in such form as the Committee may require.


6.5 Expiration of Options. Each Option belonging to a Participant shall terminate upon the first to occur of the events listed in this section.

(a) For Employees

(i) The date for termination of such Option set forth in the Option Agreement applicable to such Option.

(ii) The expiration of ten (10) years from the date such Option was granted, except as outlined in 6.3.

(iii) The expiration of one year from the date of the Participant's termination of employment for reason other than Retirement or termination for Cause, it being understood that the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option at any time after ninety (90) days from the date of termination of employment for reason other than death or Disability shall convert the Option to a Nonqualified Stock Option.

(iv) The expiration of one year from the later of the Participant's Retirement or termination of service as a Director for a reason other than for Cause.

(v) Termination of employment for Cause.

(b) For Non-employee Directors

(i) The date for termination of such Option set forth in the Option Agreement applicable to such Option.

(iv) Termination of a non-employee Director's service as a Director for Cause.

(v) One year following a Change in Control.

6.6 Payment. The Option Price upon exercise of any Option shall be payable to MBT in full in cash. The Committee also may, in its sole discretion, permit exercise (a) by tendering previously acquired Common Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price (provided that the Common Shares which are tendered must have been held by the Participant or his or her Permissible Transferees (as defined in 6.7) for at least six (6) months prior to their tender to satisfy the Option Price), or (b) by any other means which the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, to both provide legal consideration equal to the total Option Price for the Common Shares acquired through exercise of the Option and to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan.

As soon as practicable after receipt of a written notification of exercise and full payment for the Common Shares purchased, MBT shall deliver to the Participant, or his or her Permissible Transferee, the certificates (in the Participant's or such Permissible Transferee's name) representing such Common Shares.

6.7 Nontransferability of Options. No Option granted under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable by the Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of a Participant, the Option shall be exercisable only by such Participant, except: (a) in the event of the Disability of the Participant resulting in the appointment, by a court of competent jurisdiction, of a legal guardian or personal representative with appropriate authority, then by such person in the name of the Participant; or
(b) in the name of the Participant pursuant to a power of attorney, acceptable in form and substance to MBT.


Notwithstanding the above, a Participant may, with respect to any Nonqualified Stock Option: (a) designate in writing a beneficiary to exercise his or her Option after the Participant's death; (b) transfer an Option to a revocable inter vivos trust as to which the Optionee is the settlor; and (c) transfer an Option for no consideration to any of the following permissible transferees (each a "Permissible Transferee"): (i) any member of the Immediate Family of the Participant to whom such Option was granted, (ii) any trust solely for the benefit of members of the Participant's Immediate Family, or (iii) any partnership whose only partners are members of the Participant's Immediate Family; and further provided that: (1) the transferee shall remain subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to such Options prior to and after such transfer; and (2) any such transfer shall be subject to and in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Committee. Any such transfer to a Permissible Transferee shall consist of one or more options covering a minimum of one hundred (100) Common Shares. An Option may not be re-transferred by a Permissible Transferee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and then only to another Permissible Transferee. In the case of (b) and (c) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Option shall only be exercisable by the trustee or Permissible Transferee, as applicable. For the purposes hereof, "Immediate Family" means, with respect to a particular Participant, such Participant's child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, and shall include adoptive relationships.

6.8 Certain Additional Provisions for Incentive Stock Options.

(a) The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the Common Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.

(b) ISOs may be granted only to persons who are employees of MBT or a Subsidiary at the time of grant.

(c) No ISO may be exercised after the expiration of ten years from the date such ISO was granted; provided, however, that if the ISO is granted to a Participant who, together with Persons whose Common Share ownership is attributed to the Participant pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code, owns shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of MBT's or any of its Subsidiaries' capital shares, the ISO may not be exercised after the expiration of five years from the date that it was granted.

7.1 Award of Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock may be granted to Participants, subject to the provisions of the Plan, at any time and from time to time, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.

Each Restricted Stock Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by a stock certificate of MBT, registered in the name of the Participant, accompanied by an agreement in such form as the Committee shall prescribe from time to time. The Restricted Stock Awards shall comply with such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan as the Committee, in its discretion, shall establish.

7.2 Stock Legends; Prohibition on Disposition. Certificates for shares of Restricted Stock shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the restrictions to which they are subject, and any attempt to dispose of any such shares of stock in contravention of such restrictions shall be null and void and without effect. The certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock shall be held by MBT until the restrictions are satisfied.


7.3 Termination of Service. The Committee shall determine the extent to which the restrictions on any Restricted Stock Award shall lapse upon the termination of the Participant's service to MBT and its Subsidiaries, due to death, Disability, or for any other reason. If the restrictions on all or any portion of a Restricted Stock Award shall not lapse, the Participant, or in the event of his or her death, his or her personal representative, shall deliver to the Secretary of MBT such instruments of transfer, if any, as may reasonably be required to transfer the shares back to MBT.

7.4 Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company, as determined in Section 2.6 of this Plan, all restrictions then outstanding with respect to shares of Restricted Stock shall automatically expire and be of no further force and effect and all certificates representing such shares of Restricted Stock shall be delivered to the Participant.

7.5 Effect of Attempted Transfer. No benefit payable or interest in any Restricted Stock Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge and any such attempted action shall be void and no such interest in any Restricted Stock Award shall be in any manner liable for or subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Participant or his or her beneficiary.

7.6 Dividends. Dividends paid on Restricted Stock shall be paid either at the dividend payment date in cash or in shares of unrestricted stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, or the payment of such dividends shall be deferred and/or the amount or value thereof automatically reinvested in additional Restricted Stock or other investment vehicles, as the Committee shall determine or permit the Participant to elect. Stock distributed in connection with a stock split or stock dividend, and other property distributed as a dividend, shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such stock or other property has been distributed, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

7.7 Rights as a Stockholder. A Participant shall have the right to receive dividends, as described in Section 7.6, on Common Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Award during the applicable restricted period, to vote the Common Shares subject to the Award, except that the Participant shall not be entitled to enjoy any other stockholder rights and shall not be entitled to delivery of the stock certificate until the applicable restricted period shall have lapsed (if at all).

Section VIII

Stock Awards

8.1 Stock Awards. The Committee may, at any time and from time to time, designate an Award of Common Shares to any Participant, which is subject to one or more conditions established by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

8.2 Effect of Change in Control. The effect of a Change in Control upon an Award of Common Shares subject to this Section VIII shall be determined by the Committee at such time as the Committee establishes the terms and conditions that will apply to an Award of Common Shares.

Section IX

Payment of Stock or Stock Options in Lieu of Cash Compensation


The Committee may, at any time and from time to time, at the request of a Participant, designate that a portion of a Participant's compensation otherwise payable in cash be payable in Common Shares or as Stock Options; provided that a Participant shall under no circumstance be permitted to defer compensation that has already been earned through the performance of services. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine the terms and conditions under which such Common Shares or Stock Options shall be issued to Participants.

Section X

No Right to Continued Employment

Participation in the Plan shall confer no rights to continued employment with MBT or any Subsidiary, nor shall it restrict the rights of MBT or any Subsidiary to terminate a Participant's employment relationship at any time for Cause or without Cause.

Section XI

Withholding Taxes

As a condition of delivery of cash or Common Shares upon exercise of an Option, or the issuance of Common Shares, MBT shall be entitled to require that the Participant and/or his or her transferees (without regard to whether the Participant has transferred the Award in accordance with the Plan) satisfy federal, state and local tax withholding requirements as follows:

(a) Cash Remittance. Whenever Common Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of an Option or payment of Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant and/or his or her transferees to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state and local withholding tax requirements, if any, attributable to such exercise or payment, prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such shares. In addition, MBT shall have the right to withhold from any cash payment required to be made pursuant thereto an amount sufficient to satisfy the federal, state and local withholding tax requirements.

(b) Share Withholding or Remittance. In lieu of the remittance required by
Section XI (a) hereof, a Participant who is granted an Award may, to the extent approved by the Committee, irrevocably elect by written notice to MBT at the office of MBT designated for that purpose, to (i) have MBT withhold Common Shares from any Award hereunder, or (ii) deliver other previously owned Common Shares, the Fair Market Value of which as of the date on which any such tax is determined shall be equal to the amount of the required tax withholding amount, if any, rounded down to the nearest whole share attributable to such exercise, occurrence or grant; provided, however, that no election to have Common Shares withheld from any Award shall be in excess of the minimum statutory withholding tax or shall be effective with respect to an Award which was transferred by such Participant to a Permitted Transferee or otherwise.

Section XII

Amendment or Termination of the Plan

12.1 Amendment. The Board or Committee may alter, amend or suspend the Plan at any time or alter and amend Awards granted hereunder; provided, however, that no such amendment or alteration may, without the consent of any Participant to whom an Option shall theretofore have been granted or to whom a Stock Award or Restricted Stock Award shall theretofore have been issued, adversely affect the right of such Participant under such Award.

12.2 Termination. The Plan shall terminate on January 2, 2010; provided, however, that the Plan shall be subject to termination prior to such date on the date set forth in a resolution of the Board terminating the Plan. No termination of the Plan shall materially alter or impair the right of any Participant with respect to Awards previously granted hereunder without such Participant's consent. In the event of a termination of the Plan, all Awards granted hereunder shall continue to be valid and binding obligations of MBT going forward on the same terms and conditions as set forth herein and in the applicable Award agreements.

12.3 Change in Control. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other reorganization in which MBT is not the surviving or continuing corporation or in which a Change in Control is to occur, all of MBT's obligations regarding Awards, if applicable, that were granted hereunder and that are outstanding on the date of such event shall, on such terms as may be approved by the Board or the Committee prior to such event, be assumed by the surviving or continuing corporation or canceled in exchange for property (including cash) in amounts determined by the Board or the Committee in a manner that is equitable to Participants.

THIS SPLIT DOLLAR AGREEMENT is made and entered into this 27th day of December, 2000, by and between MONROE BANK & TRUST, located in Monroe, Michigan (the "Company"), and Ronald D. LaBeau (the "Executive"). This Split Dollar Agreement shall append the Split Dollar Endorsement entered into on even date herewith, or as subsequently amended, by and between the aforementioned parties.

INTRODUCTION

To encourage the Executive to remain an employee of the Company, the Company is willing to divide the death proceeds of a life insurance policy on the Executive's life to be effective until the Executive's Normal Retirement Age of
65. The Company will pay life insurance premiums from its general assets.

Article 1

General Definitions

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Split Dollar Agreement shall have the same meaning as defined in the Salary Continuation Agreement of even date herewith. The following terms shall have the meanings specified.

1 "Insurer" means Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company.

2 "Policy" means insurance policy no. 85998002 issued by the Insurer.

3 "Insured" means the Executive.

Article 2

Policy Ownership/Interests

2.1 Bank Ownership. The Company is the sole owner of the Policy and shall have the right to exercise all incidents of ownership. The Company shall be the beneficiary of any death proceeds remaining after the Executive's interest has been paid pursuant to Article 2.2 below.

2.2 Executive's Interest. The Executive shall have the right to designate the beneficiary of death proceeds in the amount of $958,837. The Executive shall also have the right to elect and change settlement options specified in the Policy that may be permitted. However, the Executive, the Executive's transferee or the Executive's beneficiary shall have no rights or interests in the Policy with respect to that portion of the death proceeds designated in this Section 2.2 if the Executive is not in the full-time employment of the Company at the time of death, except for reason of a leave of absence approved by the Company.

2.3 Option to Purchase. The Company shall not sell, surrender or transfer ownership of the Policy while this Split Dollar Agreement is in effect without first giving the Executive or the Executive's transferee a right of first refusal to purchase the Policy for the Policy's interpolated terminal reserve value. Such right of first refusal to purchase the Policy must be exercised within 60 days from the date the Company gives written notice of the Company's intention to sell, surrender or


transfer ownership of the Policy. This provision shall not impair the right of the Company to terminate this Split Dollar Agreement.

2.4 Comparable Coverage. Upon execution of this Agreement, the Company shall maintain the Policy in full force and effect and in no event shall the Company amend, terminate or otherwise abrogate the Executive's interest in the Policy, unless the Company replaces the Policy with a comparable insurance policy to cover the benefit provided under this Agreement and executes a new Split Dollar Agreement and Endorsement for said comparable insurance policy. The Policy or any comparable policy shall be subject to the claims of the Company's creditors.

Article 3

Premiums

3.1 Premium Payment. The Company shall pay any premiums due on the Policy.

3.2 Imputed Income.

Article 4

Assignment

The Executive may assign without consideration all interests in the Policy and in this Split Dollar Agreement to any person, entity or trust. In the event the Executive transfers all of the Executive's interest in the Policy, then all of the Executive's interest in the Policy and in the Split Dollar Agreement shall be vested in the Executive's transferee, who shall be substituted as a party hereunder and the Executive shall have no further interest in the Policy or in this Split Dollar Agreement.

Article 5

Insurer

The insurer shall be bound only by the terms of the Policy. Any payments the Insurer makes or actions it takes in accordance with the Policy shall fully discharge it from all claims, suits and demands of all entities or persons. The Insurer shall not be bound by or be deemed to have notice of the provisions of this Split Dollar Agreement.

Article 6

If the Company determines that there are special circumstances requiring additional time to make a decision, the Company shall notify the Claimant of the special circumstances and the date by which a decision is expected to be made, and may extend the time for up to an additional 90 days.

6.2 Review Procedure. If the Claimant is determined by the Company not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Claimant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Claimant shall have the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Company by filing a petition for review with the Company within 60 days after receipt of the notice issued by the Company. Said petition shall state the specific reasons, which the Claimant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits. Within 60 days after receipt by the Company of the petition, the Company shall afford the Claimant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his or her position to the Company verbally or in writing, and the Claimant (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents. The Company shall notify the Claimant of its decision in writing within the 60-day period, stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a manner to be understood by the Claimant and the specific provisions of this Split Dollar Agreement on which the decision is based. If, because of the need for a hearing, the 60-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred for up to another 60-day period at the election of the Company, but notice of this deferral shall be given to the Claimant.

(c) Fraud, disloyalty, dishonesty or willful violation of any law or significant Company policy committed in connection with the Participant's employment and resulting in an adverse effect on the Company.
