Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Plan Administrator
Peoples Bancorp Inc. Retirement Savings Plan
Marietta, Ohio
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Peoples Bancorp Inc. Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for
the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 net assets available for benefits of Peoples Bancorp
Inc. Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the changes
in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying supplemental schedule is presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of the Plan provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan Document and Summary Plan
Description for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions,
which are available from the plan administrator.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by Peoples Bancorp
Inc. (Company) for the benefit of its full-time employees who have at
least one hour of service and are age 21 or older. The Plan is subject
to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA). AMVESCAP National Trust Company is the trustee and serves as
the custodian of the Plan.
Contributions
The Plan permits eligible employees through a salary deferral election
to make annual contributions of up to 100% of eligible compensation.
Employee rollover contributions are also permitted. The Company makes
matching contributions of 100% of the employees' salary deferral amounts
up to 3% of the employees' compensation and 50% of the employees' salary
deferral amounts on the next 2% of the employees' compensation. Company
profit-sharing contributions are discretionary as determined by the
Company's Board of Directors. Contributions are subject to certain
limitations. Forfeitures are used to reduce Company contributions.
Participant Investment Account Options
Investment account options available include various funds. Each
participant has the option of directing his contributions into any of
the separate investment accounts and may change the allocation daily.
The Plan document also includes an automatic deferral feature whereby a
participant is treated as electing to defer a certain percentage of
eligible compensation unless the participant made an affirmative
election otherwise.
Participant Accounts
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
contribution, the Company's contribution and plan earnings and is
charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are
based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. The
benefits to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be
provided from the participant's vested account.

Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions and
the Company's profit sharing and matching contributions plus earnings
thereon.
Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service, an employee may elect to receive either a
lump-sum amount equal to the value of his account or a monthly,
quarterly, or annual installments over a period of not more than the
participant's assumed life expectancy.
Participant Loans
The Plan document includes provisions authorizing loans from the Plan to
active eligible participants. Loans are made to any eligible participant
demonstrating a qualifying need. The minimum amount of a loan shall be
$1,000. The maximum amount of a participant's loan is determined by the
available loan balance restricted to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the
participant's vested account balance. All loans are covered by demand
notes and are repayable over a period not to exceed five years (except
for loans for the purchase of a principal residence) through payroll
withholdings unless the participant is paying the loan in full. Interest
on the loans is based on local prevailing rates as determined by the
plan administrator.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed an intention to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan, subject to the provisions of ERISA.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Method of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual method
of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of net assets and changes in net assets and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
