Investment authority for those shares is held by 1st Source Bank as Trustee of the underlying trusts. (3) The principal occupation represents the employment for the last five years for each of the named directors and executive officers. Directorships presently held in other registered corporations are also disclosed. Directors and officers of 1st Source and their affiliates were customers of and had transactions with 1st Source and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business during 2002; additional transactions are expected to take place in the ordinary course of business in the future. All outstanding loans and commitments were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility, or present other unfavorable features. Credit underwriting procedures followed were no less stringent than those for comparable transactions with other borrowers. BOARD COMMITTEES 1st Source and its major subsidiary, 1st Source Bank, share the following permanent committees made up of board members of both organizations. Committee members are appointed annually after the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Executive Committee -- Members of the Executive Committee were Christopher J. Murphy III, Chairman; Daniel B. Fitzpatrick, William P. Johnson, Rex Martin, Timothy K. Ozark, and Richard J. Pfeil. The Committee did not meet in 2002. The Committee has the power to act for the Board of Directors between Board meetings subject to certain statutory limitations. The Committee also carries out the functions of the Nominating Committee and will consider nominees for election to the Board of Directors recommended by Shareholders, if submitted in writing at least 120 days prior to the next Annual Meeting to be held on or about April 22, 2004. Nominations should be addressed to the attention of the Chairman, Executive Committee, c/o 1st Source Corporation. Audit Committee -- Members of the Audit Committee were Rex Martin, Chairman; Daniel B. Fitzpatrick, Lawrence E. Hiler, Dane A. Miller, Timothy K. Ozark and Toby S. Wilt, 1st Source Directors; Terry L. Gerber, David L. Lerman, and John T. Phair, 1st Source Bank Directors. The Committee held four meetings in 2002. The function of the Audit Committee is to select the Company's outside independent accountants and to review the scope and results of the audits by the internal audit staff and the independent accountants. The Committee also reviews the adequacy of the accounting and financial controls and presents the results to the Board of Directors with respect to accounting practices and internal procedures. It also makes recommendations for improvements in such procedures. 5 Human Resources Committee -- Members of the Human Resources Committee were Richard J. Pfeil, Chairman; Rev. E. William Beauchamp, William P. Johnson, and Claire C. Skinner, 1st Source Directors; Marilou Eldred, Hollis E. Hughes, Jr., H. Thomas Jackson, Craig A. Kapson, and Mark D. Schwabero, 1st Source Bank Directors. The Committee held three meetings in 2002. The purpose of the Committee is to establish wage and benefit policies for 1st Source and its subsidiaries. Executive Compensation Committee -- Members of the Executive Compensation Committee were Timothy K. Ozark, Chairman; William P. Johnson, Rex Martin and Richard J. Pfeil. The Committee held two meetings in 2002. The Executive Compensation Committee determines compensation for senior management personnel, reviews the Chief Executive Officer and manages the Company's stock plans. Meetings of the Board of Directors and Directors' Compensation -- The Board of Directors held six meetings in 2002. The only incumbent director who attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate total meetings of the Board of Directors and all committees of the board of 1st Source on which he served was Daniel B. Fitzpatrick. Directors receive fees in the amount of $7,000 per year, and $600 per board meeting and committee meeting attended. Committee chairpersons receive $700 per meeting. Total fees paid in 2002 were $205,200. REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE The Audit Committee oversees 1st Source's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the system of internal controls. The Board of Directors has adopted a Charter for the Audit Committee to set forth its authority and responsibilities. A copy of this Charter was included in the 2001 proxy statement as Exhibit A. All of the members of the Committee are independent as defined in the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Committee reviewed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report with management. The Committee also reviewed the financial statements with 1st Source's independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles. The Committee also considered with the auditors their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of 1st Source's accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Committee under generally accepted auditing standards. In addition, the Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the auditors' independence from management and 1st Source, including the matters in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standard Board, and considered the compatibility of nonaudit services provided by the independent auditors to 1st Source with the auditors' independence. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Mr. Griffith signed an employment agreement in March 2001. Mr. Murphy's agreement provides for a $570,000 base salary at December 31, 2002, with annual increases of not less than 5% effective March 31 of each year, and cash bonus payments based on a formula computed in a manner similar to the awards to executives under the Executive Incentive Plan and Long-Term Executive Award Program. Under the other four agreements, Mr. Jones, Mr. Qualey, Mr. Stifel and Mr. Griffith receive base salaries of $306,500, $220,000, $196,980 and $215,000, respectively, at December 31, 2002, with annual increases at March 31 each year as may be determined by 1st Source, and cash and stock bonuses determined under the Executive Incentive Plan and the Long-Term Executive Award Program. The agreements permit gross-up payments necessary to cover possible excise tax payments by the Executives and to reimburse the Executives for legal fees that might be expended in enforcing the agreements' provisions or contesting tax issues relating to the agreements' parachute provisions. Mr. Murphy's agreement is a five-year agreement which is extended an additional year each year unless either party gives notice not to 7 extend. The agreements for Mr. Jones, Mr. Qualey and Mr. Stifel expire on December 31, 2003. Mr. Griffith's agreement expires on March 31, 2004. In each case their agreement will be extended from year to year thereafter unless either party gives notice not to extend. If any of the Executives terminate employment because of any adverse change in their status, he will continue to receive his base salary for a period of twelve months after his termination. If any of the Executives terminate employment within one year of a change in control (which term includes any third party which becomes beneficial owner of 50%, or in the case of Mr. Murphy, 20% or more of the outstanding stock of 1st Source, the election of a majority of new directors in connection with a sale, merger, other business combination or contested Board of Directors election, or any approval of any transaction which results in a disposition of substantially all of the assets of 1st Source), he will receive severance pay in cash equal to 2.99 times his "Annualized Includable Compensation" (as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.) The agreements also include restrictive covenants which provide, among other things, that the Executives not compete with 1st Source in bank or bank-related services within certain designated counties of Indiana or divulge confidential information or trade secrets for a twenty-four month period (in the agreement of Mr. Griffith, an unlimited period with respect to confidential information or trade secrets) after termination of employment. In the event of disability, the Executives will receive their base salary for up to one year, in addition to other disability programs in effect for all officers of 1st Source. Additionally, 1st Source has entered into a split-dollar life insurance agreement with Mr. Murphy which insures the lives of Mr. Murphy and his wife for $10.2 million. (2) 1st Source has an Executive Incentive Plan (the "Plan") and the 1998 Performance Compensation Plan which are administered by the Executive Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board. Awards under the Plan consist of cash and "Book Value" and "Market Value" shares of Common Stock. "Book Value" shares are awarded annually on a discretionary basis and are subject to forfeiture over a period of five (5) years. "Book Value" shares may only be sold to 1st Source, and such sale is mandatory in the event of death, retirement, disability or termination of employment. 1st Source may terminate or extend the Plan at any time. During February 2001 and February 1996, 1st Source granted special long-term incentive awards (the "Awards") to participants in the Executive Incentive Plan administered by the Committee. The 2001 Award was granted for the attainment of the company's long-term goals for 2000, which were set in 1995. The 1996 Award was granted for the attainment of the company's long-term goals for 1995 which were set in 1990. Each Award was split between cash and 1st Source Common Stock valued at the market price at the time of the award. Such shares are subject to forfeiture over a period of ten (10) years. The first 10% of these shares was vested at the grant of the Award. Subsequent vesting requires (i) the participant to remain an employee of 1st Source and (ii) that 1st Source be profitable on an annual basis based on the determination of the Committee. 1st Source also has a Restricted Stock Award Plan (the "Restricted Plan") for key employees. Awards under the Restricted Plan are made to employees recommended by the Chief Executive Officer and approved by the Committee. Shares awarded under the Restricted Plan are subject to forfeiture over a five (5) to ten (10) year period. Vesting is based upon meeting certain criteria, including continued employment by 1st Source. The bonus amounts shown represent the annual cash awards under the Plan, the 1998 Performance Compensation Plan and other cash bonuses. Vested stock under the Plan, the Awards and the Restricted Plan are included in the LTIP Payouts column. The value placed on "Book Value" shares is the book value per share as of December 31 of each year. The value placed on market value shares is market value as of December 31 of each year. Mr. Murphy receives this vested amount in cash. Unvested stock holdings under the Plan, the Awards and the Restricted Plan as of December 31, 2002, are as follows: Book Value Market Value Calculated Name Shares Shares Value --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Christopher J.

All other amounts reported in the "All Other Compensation" column represent 1st Source contributions to defined contribution retirement plans. (4) Mr. Griffith became an executive officer in 2001. EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE PLAN-- AWARDS FOR LAST FISCAL YEAR There have been no Executive Incentive Plan awards to executive officers for the last fiscal year. PENSION PLAN BENEFITS Annual pension benefits payable to executive officers after their retirement under annuity contracts received from the terminated Pension Plan are as follows: Annual Pension Name Benefits ----------------------------------------------------------------- Christopher J. Murphy III $17,078 Wellington D. Jones III 6,694 Richard Q.Stifel 3,879 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT 1st Source officers are reviewed annually by their immediate supervisor. The review includes assessment of management performance and achievement of individual, group and Company goals. The performance review is a normal part of 1st Source's Salary Administration Program. All positions are rated and placed in a salary range. Annually, with our approval, management establishes a salary performance grid that sets the range of merit increases that may be given to officers depending on their review and their respective position (lower, middle or upper third) in their respective salary range. The categories of performance under the Company's review program are: -- Substantially and consistently exceeds job requirements -- Often exceeds job requirements -- Meets and sometimes exceeds job requirements -- Meets some job requirements, improvement is required -- Does not meet minimal job requirements Management awards salary increases as determined under the guidelines of the Salary Administration Program in conformance with the salary performance grid in effect for the year and the annual budget. All of the officers reported herein, including Mr. Murphy, are under the 1st Source Salary Administration Program. In his case, he is evaluated by us against a series of objectives set in the Company's annual budget plan and in its long-term strategic plan as annually approved by our full Board. In January 2003, we reviewed Mr. Murphy's salary. Under his employment contract described elsewhere 9 in this proxy statement, Mr. Murphy has a right to receive a minimum annual increase of 5%. Mr. Murphy waived his right to a 5% increase for this review due to the Company's 2002 credit performance and recommended to us that he be given no increase. We accepted his recommendation and no increase was granted. Bonuses under 1st Source's Executive Incentive Plan (EIP) are determined annually following the close of the year. The bonus is calculated based on the officer's "partnership level" adjusted for the Company's performance relative to plan and for the individual's performance relative to weighted objectives set at the beginning of the year. In Mr. Murphy's case, the base bonus is calculated at a "partnership level" of 25% of his salary. For each 1% that the Company varies from its profit plan for the year, the base bonus is adjusted up or down by 2.5%. Since the Company performed well below its plan for the year, there are no awards under the Company's Executive Incentive Plan and, therefore, Mr. Murphy did not receive an award. Also, under the EIP, 50% of the Executive Incentive Plan bonus is paid in cash at the time of the award. The other 50% is paid in book value stock and is subject to forfeiture over the succeeding five (5) years. The forfeiture lapses ratably for each year the employee remains with the Company and for each year, or period of years, the Company grows its net income by a targeted minimum per year. During this period, the "at risk" portion of the bonus, delineated in book value stock, is transferred to the participant as the forfeiture period lapses. In Mr. Murphy's case, while determined in book value stock, the award is paid in cash as the forfeiture lapses. Due to the Company's performance in 2002, the remaining 20% of the award made in 1997 would be forfeited. Mr. Murphy asked that the forfeiture period for these awards be extended for four (4) years for all members of the Executive Incentive Plan except himself, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Qualey, as they are the most senior officers of the Corporation with credit and management authority and should bear full responsibility for the Company's performance. The recommendation for the extension was made in an effort to encourage the management team throughout the Company to accelerate their efforts to return 1st Source to its former earnings levels. We approved this extension, as did the Board of Directors, subject to the approval of the Shareholders as is sought elsewhere in this proxy statement. Mr. Murphy was also eligible for a cash bonus under the 1998 Performance Compensation Plan previously approved by the Shareholders and based on goals established by us at the beginning of 2002. For 2002, the award level set was 2.5% of net income, or the same percentage as set for the three (3) previous years. However, due to the continuing credit problems experienced by the Company, Mr. Murphy recommended that no award be made and waived his right to receive any.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires executive officers and directors to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of 1st Source Corporation stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to furnish 1st Source with copies of all reports filed. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to 1st Source and written representations from the executive officers and directors that no other reports were required, 1st Source believes that all filing requirements were complied with during the last fiscal year, except that one report covering one transaction was filed late by Mr. Murphy and an initial report of ownership was filed late by Mr. Wilt. 12 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION (a) (b) (c) Number of Securities Remaining Available for Future Issuance Number of Securities to be Weighted-average Under Equity Issued upon Exercise of Exercise Price of Compensation Plans Outstanding Options, Outstanding Options, (excluding securities Warrants and Rights Warrants and Rights reflected in column a) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equity compensation plans approved by shareholders 1992 stock option plan 758,582 $ 20.14 - 2001 stock option plan 67,700 22.58 1,932,300 1997 employee stock purchase plan 23,306 21.29 192,692 1982 executive incentive plan - - 100,000(1)(2) 1982 restricted stock award plan - - 200,000(1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total plans approved by shareholders 849,588 $ 20.37 2,424,992 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equity compensation plans not approved by shareholders Stock option agreement effective January 1, 1992 108,584 $ 5.48 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total equity compensation plans 958,172 $ 18.68 2,424,992 =================================================================================================================== (1) Amount is to be awarded by grants administered by the Executive Compensation Committee of the 1st Source Board of Directors (2) Amount includes market value stock only.

PROPOSAL NUMBER 2: AMENDMENT OF SECTION 7(d) OF 1982 EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE PLAN AND SECTION 7(c) OF 1982 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD PLAN On December 17, 2002 the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 1st Source Corporation 1982 Executive Incentive Plan (the "Executive Incentive Plan) and to the 1st Source Corporation 1982 Restricted Stock Award Plan (the "Restricted Plan"). The amendments become effective upon shareholder approval. The amendments add the following language to Section 7(d) of the Executive Incentive Plan and Section 7(c) of the Restricted Plan: Not withstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its sole discretion at any time extend the Forfeiture Period on issued shares for the current or prior year(s), despite the Corporation's failure to meet the required annual or cumulative rate of return. 1st Source shareholders approved each plan in 1982. Each plan is administered by the Executive Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors. Each plan provides for the grant of restricted shares to selected executives and other key employees of the Company as a means of inducing continued future employment and performance of such key employees and provides that the shares shall vest over a period of time if the company meets certain financial requirements which are set by the Committee at the time of grant. There were approximately 80 participants in the plans as of December 31, 2002. If 1st Source does not meet the financial requirements by the end of the vesting period, the shares are forfeited. While the plans give the Committee broad power to interpret, implement, and administer the plan, the plans do not specifically give the Committee the power to extend the vesting period. 13 1st Source did not meet the financial requirements necessary to remove the restrictions on certain restricted shares when the vesting period ended effective with the announcement of 1st Source's 2002 annual earnings on January 21, 2003. As discussed previously in the Executive Compensation Committee Report, the Committee, with the Board's approval, amended selected existing grants to extend the vesting period for a period of 4 years on those shares that would otherwise have been forfeited in January provided that the shareholders approve the amendment to the plans authorizing the Committee to extend the vesting period applicable to restricted shares issued under the plans. This was done to recognize the catastrophic impact of 9/11 on 1st Source's Specialty Finance Group and provide an opportunity to the participants to earn out the affected awards for future performance. If the shareholders do not approve the amendment, the shares will be forfeited. The Committee also wishes to have the power to extend the vesting period at its discretion in the future to maximize the usefulness of the plans in attracting, retaining and motivating key employees. Copies of the full text of the amended Section 7(d) of the Executive Incentive Plan and Section 7(c) of the Restricted Plan are attached as Exhibits A and B, respectively. THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE AMENDMENT TO SECTION 7(d) OF THE 1982 EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE PLAN AND SECTION 7(c) OF THE 1982 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD PLAN. RELATIONSHIP WITH INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS The financial statements of 1st Source are audited annually by independent accountants. For the year ended December 31, 2002 and the two (2) proceeding years, the audit was performed by Ernst & Young LLP. Fees for the last annual audit were $185,500 and all other fees were $134,560, including audit related services of $78,500 and nonaudit services of $56,060. Audit related services generally include fees for pension and statutory audits. Representatives of the firm of Ernst & Young LLP will be available to respond to questions during the Annual Meeting. These representatives have indicated that they do not presently intend to make a statement at the Annual Meeting. Ernst & Young LLP will continue as 1st Source's independent accountants for the year ending December 31, 2003, as approved by the Audit Committee. PROPOSALS OF SECURITY HOLDERS Proposals submitted by security holders for presentation at the next Annual Meeting must be submitted in writing to the Secretary, 1st Source Corporation, on or before November 7, 2003. 14 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION As to the proposals presented for approval, a plurality of the shares voted is required for approval. A COPY OF 1ST SOURCE'S MOST RECENT ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K WILL BE PROVIDED, WITHOUT CHARGE (EXCEPT FOR EXHIBITS), ON WRITTEN REQUEST TO: TREASURER, 1ST SOURCE CORPORATION, POST OFFICE BOX 1602, SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46634.

Griffith Secretary South Bend, Indiana March 14, 2003 15 EXHIBIT A AMENDMENT TO 1ST SOURCE CORPORATION 1982 EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE PLAN Section 7(d) of the Company's 1982 Executive Incentive Plan is amended in its entirety to read as follows: (d) The term "Forfeiture Period" with respect to any allocation of shares issued to a Participant under this Plan shall mean a period commencing on the date of issuance of such shares to the Participant and ending over a five (5) year period (for annual awards) or a nine (9) year period (for long-term awards) thereafter. The forfeiture period shall terminate at an equal and proportionate rate for each year in which: (1) the Participant served continuously as an employee for the full Plan Year, or in which the employee died, became totally disabled or retired at his normal retirement date while an employee, and during which, (2) for book value shares only, the Corporation's consolidated earnings grew at a rate not less than the rate of growth established in advance by the Committee in connection with the applicable award. With respect to book value shares only, for any year in which the cumulative growth rate is equal to or has exceeded the rate established for the accumulated years subsequent to the date of the award, all risk of forfeiture is removed for those shares which were not released in that year or any prior year in which the Corporation failed to meet the required annual or cumulative rate of return. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its sole discretion at any time extend the Forfeiture Period on issued shares for the current or prior year(s), despite the Corporation's failure to meet the required annual or cumulative rate of return. If the Amendment is approved by a plurality of votes cast, the Amendment shall be deemed to be effective as of January 17, 2003. EXHIBIT B AMENDMENT TO 1ST SOURCE CORPORATION 1982 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD PLAN Section 7(c) of the Company's 1982 Restricted Stock Award Plan is amended in its entirety to read as follows: (c) The term "Restricted Period" with respect to any allocation of shares issued to a Participant under this Plan shall mean a period commencing on the date of issuance of such shares to the Participant and ending ten (10) years or such other period as the Committee may designate in the notice of allocation thereafter. The restricted period shall terminate at an equal and proportionate amount of the allocation of shares for each year in which: (1) the Participant has served continuously as an employee, and was employed or retired at year end, or in which such employee dies while employed or retired. (2) the company return on equity meets or exceeds the rate of return on common equity established in advance by the Committee, or the Participant meets or exceeds the individual performance goal(s) established in advance by the Committee, as applicable. Any year in which the cumulative rate of return on equity meets or exceeds the rate established for the accumulated years subsequent to the year of the award, will remove the restrictions for that year and any prior year for which the yearly rate failed to meet the established rate. 16 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its sole discretion at any time extend the Restricted Period on issued shares for the current or prior year(s), despite the Corporation's failure to meet the required annual or cumulative rate of return. With respect to individual performance goals, if a Participant fails to meet or exceed his/her individual performance goal(s) for a given year, all shares so restricted with respect to that year will be forfeited. The Committee may designate the particular shares with respect to which such restrictions end at the expiration of each such yearly period either by authorizing the issuance of separate certificates or by other instruments or documentation as deemed feasible by the Committee, and such certificates shall be delivered to Participant forthwith. The Amendment shall become effective on the date the Amendment is approved by a plurality of votes cast. 17
