             PEEKSKILL FINANCIAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF
               100,000 SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM AND ANNOUNCES THE
           COMMENCEMENT OF ADDITIONAL 100,000 SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM


         Peekskill,   New  York  --  Peekskill  Financial  Corporation  (NASDAQ:
"PEEK"),  the  holding  company for First  Federal  Savings  Bank (the  "Bank"),
announced  that the  Company  has  completed  its  repurchase  of 100,000 of its
outstanding  shares of common stock at an average price per share of $13.15. The
Company also announced it intends to repurchase up to 100,000 of its outstanding
shares of common  stock in the open market over the next  twelve  months.  These
shares will be purchased at prevailing market prices from time to time depending
upon market conditions.

         Eldorus Maynard,  Chairman and Chief Executive  Officer of the Company,
indicated that the Board of Directors approved the repurchase program in view of
the current  price level of the  Company's  common stock and the strong  capital
position of the Company's  subsidiary,  First Federal  Savings Bank. Mr. Maynard
stated  that,  "We  believe  the  repurchase  of our shares  continues  to be an
attractive  investment  opportunity  which  will  benefit  the  Company  and its
stockholders."

         The Company was organized in 1995 to act as the holding  company of the
Bank. The Bank, with headquarters in Peekskill,  New York,  primarily serves the
communities in its market area through its three full service branches.

         At September  30, 1999,  the Company had  consolidated  total assets of
$207.2 million and stockholders' equity of $26.6 million. The Company's stock is
traded on the NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol "PEEK."
