PART I

Item 1.  Business
- -----------------

General

      Advance  Financial  Bancorp  (the  "Company")  is a  Delaware  corporation
organized in September 1996 at the direction of Advance  Financial  Savings Bank
(the "Bank" or  "Advance")  to acquire  all of the  capital  stock that the Bank
issued  in its  conversion  from the  mutual  to stock  form of  ownership  (the
"Conversion").  On December 31, 1996,  the Bank  completed  the  Conversion  and
became a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of the  Company.  The  Company  is a unitary
savings and loan holding  company which,  under existing laws,  generally is not
restricted in the types of business  activities in which it may engage  provided
that the Bank  retains  a  specified  amount of its  assets  in  housing-related
investments.  The Company conducts no significant  business or operations of its
own other than holding all of the  outstanding  stock of the Bank and  investing
the Company's portion of the net proceeds obtained in the conversion.

      The Bank,  chartered  in 1935 under the name Advance  Federal  Savings and
Loan of West Virginia, is a federally chartered stock savings bank headquartered
in  Wellsburg,   West  Virginia.   The  Bank  is  subject  to  examination   and
comprehensive  regulation  by the Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS") and its
deposits  are  federally  insured  by the  Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund
("SAIF").  The  Bank is a  member  of and  owns  capital  stock  in the  FHLB of
Pittsburgh,  which is one of the 12 regional banks in the FHLB System.  The Bank
has an investment in one service corporation.

      The Bank operates a traditional savings bank business,  attracting deposit
accounts from the general public and using those  deposits,  together with other
funds,  primarily  to  originate  and invest in loans  secured by  single-family
residential real estate.

Competition

      The Bank is one of many  financial  institutions  serving  its market area
which  consists of Brooke and Hancock  counties of West Virginia and portions of
Jefferson County Ohio and Washington County,  Pennsylvania.  The competition for
deposit  products  comes  from  other  insured  financial  institutions  such as
commercial banks, thrift  institutions,  credit unions, and multi-state regional
banks in the Bank's market area.  Deposit  competition also includes a number of
insurance  products sold by local agents and investment  products such as mutual
funds and other securities sold by local and regional brokers.  Loan competition
varies depending upon market  conditions and comes from other insured  financial
institutions  such as commercial  banks,  thrift  institutions,  credit  unions,
multi-state regional banks, and mortgage bankers.

Lending Activities

      General.   The   Bank's   loan   portfolio   predominantly   consists   of
adjustable-rate  mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences and to
a lesser extent,  the Bank originates  commercial  loans secured by real estate,
construction  loans, land lot loans and savings account loans. It is the current
policy of the Bank to remain  primarily a portfolio  lender.  From time to time,
the Bank sells one- to four family fixed rate loans in the secondary market.

      One- to Four-Family Residential Loans. The Bank's primary lending activity
consists of the  origination of one- to four-family  residential  mortgage loans
secured by property  located in the Bank's primary market areas. The Bank's one-
to four-family  residential  loan portfolio also includes  second mortgage loans
and home equity loans secured by second mortgages. The Bank generally originates
owner-occupied one- to four-family  residential  mortgage loans in amounts up to
80% of the  lesser of the  appraised  value or  selling  price of the  mortgaged
property  without  requiring  mortgage  insurance.  The Bank  will  originate  a
mortgage  loan in an amount up to 95% of the  lesser of the  appraised  value or
selling price of a mortgaged property,  however,  mortgage insurance is required
for the amount in excess of 80% of such  value.  Non-owner-occupied  residential
mortgage loans are originated up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised  value or
selling price of the property.  The Bank also originates  construction permanent
loans on one- to four-family  residences.  The Bank retains most of the mortgage
loans  that it  originates.  Adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans,  which can adjust
annually or every three or five years over

                                        4

<PAGE>



the life of the loan depending on the type of the loan,  can have  maturities of
up to 30 years. Fixed-rate loans can have maturities of up to 30 years depending
on the type of the loan.

      For all adjustable-rate  mortgage loans, the Bank requires the borrower to
qualify at the initial rate. The Bank's  adjustable-rate  mortgage loans provide
for periodic  interest rate adjustments of plus or minus 1% to 2% with a maximum
adjustment  over  the term of the loan as set  forth in the loan  agreement  and
usually  ranges from 6% to 7% above the initial  interest rate  depending on the
terms of the loan.  Adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans reprice  every year,  every
three  years or every five  years,  and provide for terms of up to 30 years with
most  loans  having  terms  of  between  15  and  30  years.   The  Bank  offers
adjustable-rate  loans with initial  interest  rates set below the fully indexed
rate.

      The Bank  offers  adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans  indexed  to the weekly
average of the one year U.S.  Treasury bill.  Interest rates charged on mortgage
loans are competitively priced based on market conditions and the Bank's cost of
funds. Generally, the Bank's standard underwriting guidelines for mortgage loans
conform to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage  Corporation  ("FHLMC") guidelines and
most of the Bank's loans are salable in the secondary  market. It is the current
policy of the Bank to remain a portfolio lender for its adjustable rate loans.

      Adjustable-rate  mortgage loans decrease the risks associated with changes
in interest rates by more closely  reflecting  these changes,  but involve other
risks  because as  interest  rates  increase,  the  underlying  payments  by the
borrower increase,  thus increasing the potential for default. At the same time,
the  marketability  of the underlying  collateral  may be adversely  affected by
higher interest  rates.  Upward  adjustment of the contractual  interest rate is
also limited by the adjustable-rate mortgage loan documents, thereby potentially
limiting their  effectiveness  during periods of rising  interest  rates.  These
risks have not had an adverse effect on the Bank.

      Non-residential  Real Estate  Loans.  Non-residential  real  estate  loans
consist  of  loans  made  for the  purpose  of  purchasing  or  refinancing  the
non-residential  real estate used as  collateral  and includes  loans secured by
mixed  residential and commercial use property,  professional  office buildings,
churches  and  restaurants.  Loans  secured by  non-residential  property may be
originated in amounts up to 80% of the appraised  value for a maximum term of 20
years.   Non-residential  lending  entails  significant  additional  risks  when
compared   with  one-  to   four-family   residential   lending.   For  example,
non-residential loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers
or groups of related  borrowers,  the payment experience on such loans typically
is dependent on the  successful  operation of the project and these risks can be
significantly  impacted by the cash flow of the  borrowers and supply and demand
conditions in the market for commercial office, retail and warehouse space.

      Consumer Loans. The Bank offers consumer loans in order to provide a wider
range of financial services to its customers.  Federal savings  associations are
permitted  to make  secured  and  unsecured  consumer  loans  up to 35% of their
assets. In addition,  savings  associations have lending authority above the 35%
limitation for certain consumer loans,  such as home  improvement,  credit card,
education,  savings account or passbook loans.  Consumer or other loans totalled
$11.7  million,  or 13.2% of the Bank's total loans,  of which loans  secured by
automobiles totalled $7.4 million, or 8.4% of the Bank's total loans at June 30,
1997. The Bank originates  automobile  loans with terms of up to 6 years for new
automobiles  and up to 5 years for used  automobiles.  Most of these  automobile
loans are originated  directly by the Bank.  During the past two years, the Bank
has begun to originate automobile loans indirectly by purchasing such loans from
automobile  dealers with whom the Bank provides floor plan  financing.  Indirect
automobile  loans  are  underwritten  by the Bank and a fee is  remitted  to the
automobile dealer upon the successful  underwriting and closing of the loan. The
fee is rebated to the Bank,  on a pro rata basis,  if the loan is repaid  within
the first six months. The Bank does not have recourse against the

                                        5

<PAGE>



automobile dealer in the event of a default by the borrower. The Bank originates
each  indirect  auto loan in  accordance  with its  underwriting  standards  and
procedures,  which are intended to assess the  applicant's  ability to repay the
amounts due on the loan and the adequacy of the financed vehicle as collateral.

      Commercial  Loans.  Commercial  loans,  other than  commercial real estate
loans, consist of, among other things, commercial lines of credit (which include
automobile  floor plan lines of credit),  commercial  vehicle loans, and working
capital loans and are typically  secured by residential or commercial  property,
receivables or inventory, vehicles comprising the automobile floor plan, or some
other form of collateral. Floor plan financing involves continuing financing for
an automobile  dealer that is secured by automobiles  physically  located on the
dealer's lot. The Bank holds the title to the automobiles during the pendency of
the sale. Floor plan financing  typically  involves high loan origination volume
and repayment within 90 days of origination.

      Construction  Loans. The Bank makes  construction  loans primarily for the
construction of single-family  dwellings.  Approximately 90% of these loans were
made to persons who are  constructing  properties  for the purpose of  occupying
them. Such loans may also be made to builders to construct  properties for sale.
Loans made to builders are generally "pure construction" loans which require the
payment  of  interest  at fixed  rates  during the  construction  period and the
payment of the principal in full at the end of the  construction  period.  Loans
made to  individual  property  owners  are  either  pure  construction  loans or
"construction-permanent"  loans  which  generally  provide  for the  payment  of
interest only during a construction  period,  after which the loans convert to a
permanent  loan at fixed or  adjustable  interest  rates having terms similar to
other one- to four-family residential loans.

      Construction  loans made to  builders  who are  building  to resell have a
maximum  loan-to-value  ratio of 80% of the  appraised  value  of the  property.
Construction  loans to  individuals  who intend to occupy the finished  premises
generally have a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 80%.

      Loan Approval Authority and Underwriting. The Bank has established various
lending limits for its officers and maintains a Loan Committee.  A report of all
mortgage loans  originated is presented to the Board of Directors  monthly.  The
President  and Senior  Vice  President  of the Bank each have the  authority  to
approve  applications  for mortgage  loans up to $100,000,  consumer loans up to
$40,000  for  secured  loans and up to $10,000 for  unsecured  loans.  Six other
officers  have  authority  to approve  secured  credit  applications  in varying
amounts up to $35,000.

      The Loan Committee  considers all  applications for commercial loans up to
$250,000,  whether secured or unsecured, and all consumer loans in amounts above
the lending limit established above. All loans in excess of those limits set for
the Loan Committee require the consideration and approval of the entire Board of
Directors.

      Upon receipt of a completed loan application from a prospective  borrower,
a credit report is generally  ordered,  income and certain other  information is
verified and, if necessary,  additional financial  information is requested.  An
appraisal  from a licensed fee appraiser of the real estate  intended to be used
as security for the proposed loan is obtained. For construction/permanent loans,
funds  advanced  during  the  construction  phase are held in a  loan-in-process
account and disbursed based upon various stages of completion in accordance with
the results of inspection reports that are based upon physical inspection of the
construction by a loan officer. For real estate loans, each title is reviewed by
the attorney for the Bank to determine  that title is clear.  Historically,  the
Bank has not  required  title  insurance  except  in those  instances  where the
attorney has seen a need for title  insurance.  Borrowers  must also obtain fire
and casualty  insurance  (for loans on property  located in a flood zone,  flood
insurance  is required)  prior to the closing of the loan.  The Bank is named as
mortgagee/loss payee of this insurance.

      Loan  Commitments.  The Bank issues  written  commitments  to  prospective
borrowers on all approved  mortgage loans which generally  expire within 30 days
of the date of issuance. The Bank charges no commitment fees or points to secure
commitments.  A customer  may lock in a fixed rate for 30 days by  depositing  a
nonrefundable fee with the Bank. In some instances,  after a review of the rate,
terms, and  circumstances,  commitments may be renewed or extended beyond the 30
day limit. At June 30, 1997, the Bank had $866,000 of outstanding commitments to
originate  loans and $1.5 million in undisbursed  funds related to  construction
loans.

      Loans to One  Borrower.  SAIF-insured  savings bank are subject to certain
lending  limitations to a single  borrower or group of borrowers.  Under current
law,  the Bank's  lending  limits  equals an amount  equal to 15% of  unimpaired
capital and unimpaired  surplus on an unsecured  basis and an additional  amount
equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus if the loan is secured
by readily marketable  collateral.  Savings  associations are authorized to make
loans to one borrower,  for any purpose, in an amount up to $500,000. The Bank's
maximum  loan-to-one  borrower limit was approximately  $1.8 million at June 30,
1997. At June 30, 1997,  the  aggregate  loans  outstanding  of the Bank's three
largest  borrowers have  outstanding  balances of between $500,000 and $899,000,
and were  secured  by  property  in the Bank's  market  area.  These  loans were
performing in accordance with their contractual terms and were within the Bank's
lending limit.

Non-Performing and Problem Assets

      Loan Delinquencies.  The Bank's collection  procedures provide that when a
mortgage  loan is 30 days past due, a delinquent  notice is sent to the borrower
and a late charge is imposed in  accordance  with the  mortgage or Deed of Trust
agreement.  If payment is still  delinquent  after 90 days,  the  borrower  will
receive a notice of default establishing a date by which the borrower must bring
the account current or foreclosure proceedings will be instituted.  Late charges
are also imposed in accordance with the mortgage or Deed of Trust agreement.  If
the delinquency continues,  similar subsequent efforts are made to eliminate the
delinquency.  If the loan continues in a delinquent  status for 90 days past due
and no  repayment  plan is in effect,  the account is turned over to an attorney
for  foreclosure.  Management  meets  regularly  to determine  when  foreclosure
proceedings  should be initiated and the borrower is notified  when  foreclosure
has been commenced.

      Loans are reviewed on a monthly basis and are placed on non-accrual status
when considered doubtful of collection by management.  Generally, loans past due
90 days or more as to principal or interest  and, in the opinion of  management,
are not adequately  secured to insure the  collection of the entire  outstanding
balance of the loan including accrued interest are placed on non-accrual status.
Interest  accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual  status
is charged  against  interest  income.  Subsequent  cash  payments are generally
applied to interest income unless, in the opinion of management,  the collection
of principal and interest is doubtful. In those cases,  subsequent cash payments
would be applied to principal.

      Interest  income that would have been recorded on loans accounted for on a

interest income from non-accrual loans for the year ended June 30, 1997.

      Classified Assets. OTS regulations provide for a classification system for
problem  assets of  insured  institutions.  Under  this  classification  system,
problem  assets  of  insured   institutions  are  classified  as  "substandard,"
"doubtful," or "loss." An asset is considered  substandard if it is inadequately
protected by the current net worth and paying  capacity of the obligor or of the
collateral  pledged,  if any.  Substandard assets include those characterized by
the "distinct possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss"
if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of
the  weaknesses  inherent in those  classified  as  substandard,  with the added
characteristic  that the weaknesses  present make  "collection or liquidation in
full," on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, "highly
questionable  and  improbable."  Assets  classified as loss are those considered
"uncollectible"  and of such  little  value  that  their  continuance  as assets
without the establishment of a

                                        8

<PAGE>



specific  loss  reserve  is not  warranted.  Assets may be  designated  "special
mention"  because  of  potential   weakness  that  does  not  currently  warrant
classification in one of the aforementioned categories.

      When  an  insured   institution   classifies   problem  assets  as  either
substandard or doubtful,  it may establish general allowances for loan losses in
an amount  deemed  prudent by  management.  General  allowances  represent  loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities,  but which, unlike specific  allowances,  have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured  institution  classifies
problem assets as loss, it is required either to establish a specific  allowance
for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or to charge
off such amount. An institution's  determination as to the classification of its
assets and the amount of its  valuation  allowances  is subject to review by the
OTS, which may order the  establishment  of additional  general or specific loss
allowances.  A portion of general loss allowances  established to cover possible
losses  related to assets  classified as substandard or doubtful may be included
in determining an institution's  regulatory  capital,  while specific  valuation
allowances for loan losses generally do not qualify as regulatory capital.

      In accordance with its classification of assets policy, the Bank regularly
reviews the problem  assets in its  portfolio  to  determine  whether any assets
require classification in accordance with applicable  regulations.  On the basis
of management's  review of its assets, at June 30, 1997, the Bank had classified
$485,000 of assets as substandard,  $31,000 of assets as doubtful,  and $771,000
of assets as special mention.

      Real Estate  Acquired in Settlement of Loans.  Real estate acquired by the
Bank as a result of  foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified
as real estate owned until it is sold. When property is acquired, it is recorded
at  the  fair  value  at  the  date  of  foreclosure  less  estimated  costs  of
disposition.

      Allowances  for Loan  Losses.  It is  management's  policy to provide  for
losses on unidentified loans in its loan portfolio.  A provision for loan losses
is charged to operations based on management's evaluation of the losses that may
be incurred in the Bank's loan  portfolio.  Such  evaluation,  which  includes a
review of all loans of which full  collectibility  of interest and principal may
not be reasonably assured, considers the Bank's past loan loss experience, known
and inherent  risks in the  portfolio,  adverse  situations  that may affect the
borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying  collateral,  any
existing guarantees,  past performance of the loan, available  documentation for
the loan, legal impediments to collection,  financial condition of the borrower,
and current economic conditions.

      Management  will continue to review the entire loan portfolio to determine
the extent,  if any, to which further  additional  loss provisions may be deemed
necessary.  There can be no  assurance  that the  allowance  for losses  will be
adequate  to cover  losses  which may in fact be realized in the future and that
additional provisions for losses will not be required.

Analysis of the Allowance for Loan Losses

      The  following  table  sets  forth  the  allocation  of the  allowance  by
category,  which  management  believes can be allocated  only on an  approximate
basis.  The  allocation  of the  allowance to each  category is not  necessarily
indicative  of future loss and does not  restrict  the use of the  allowance  to
absorb losses in any category.

Investment Activities and Mortgage-Backed Securities

      General.  The Bank is required  under  federal  regulations  to maintain a
minimum  amount of liquid  assets which may be invested in specified  short term
securities  and certain other  investments.  The Bank has maintained a liquidity
portfolio  in  excess  of  regulatory  requirements.  Liquidity  levels  may  be
increased or decreased depending upon the yields on investment  alternatives and
upon management's judgment as to the attractiveness of the yields then available
in relation to other  opportunities  and its expectation of future yield levels,
as well as management's  projections as to the short term demand for funds to be
used in the Bank's loan  origination and other  activities.  The Bank classifies
its investments as securities available for sale or investments  securities held
to  maturity in  accordance  with SFAS No.  115.  At June 30,  1997,  the Bank's
investment  portfolio  policy allowed  investments  in instruments  such as U.S.
Treasury  obligations,   U.S.  federal  agency  or  federally  sponsored  agency
obligations,   municipal  obligations,   mortgage-backed  securities,   banker's
acceptances,  certificates of deposit,  federal funds,  including FHLB overnight
and term  deposits (up to six months),  as well as  investment  grade  corporate
bonds,  commercial paper and the mortgage  derivative  products described below.
The Board of Directors may authorize additional investments.

      The Bank's securities available for sale and investment securities held to
maturity  portfolios  at June 30, 1997 did not contain  securities of any issuer
with an aggregate  book value in excess of 10% of the Bank's  equity,  excluding
those issued by the United States Government or its agencies.

      Mortgage-Backed Securities. To supplement lending activities, the Bank has
invested in residential mortgage-backed  securities.  Mortgage-backed securities
can serve as collateral for borrowings and, through  repayments,  as a source of
liquidity.  Mortgage-backed  securities represent a participation  interest in a
pool of  single-family  or other type of  mortgages,  the principal and interest
payments  on  which  are  passed   from  the   mortgage   originators,   through
intermediaries (generally  quasi-governmental  agencies) that pool and repackage
the participation interests in the form of securities,  to investors such as the
Bank. Such quasi-governmental agencies, which guarantee the payment of principal
and interest to investors, primarily include FHLMC, Government National Mortgage
Association ("GNMA"), and FNMA.

      The Bank's mortgage-backed  securities were classified as held to maturity
at  June  30,  1997  and  were  all  issued  by  GNMA  or  FHLMC,   representing
participating interests in direct pass-through pools of long-term mortgage loans
originated and serviced by the issuers of the  securities.  Expected  maturities
will differ from contractual  maturities due to scheduled repayments and because
borrowers  may have the  right to call or  prepay  obligations  with or  without
prepayment penalties.

      Mortgage-backed  securities  typically  are issued with  stated  principal
amounts and the securities are backed by pools of mortgages that have loans with
interest  rates  that  are  within  a range  and have  varying  maturities.  The
underlying   pool  of  mortgages  can  be  composed  of  either   fixed-rate  or
adjustable-rate  mortgage  loans.   Mortgage-backed   securities  are  generally
referred to as mortgage participation certificates or pass-through certificates.
As a result,  the interest rate risk  characteristics  of the underlying pool of
mortgages (i.e., fixed-rate or adjustable-rate), as well as prepayment risk, are
passed on to the certificate holder. The life of a mortgage-backed  pass-through
security  is  equal  to the life of the  underlying  mortgages.  Mortgage-backed
securities  issued  by FHLMC  and GNMA make up a  majority  of the  pass-through
certificates market.

Sources of Funds

      General.  Deposits are the major  external  source of the Bank's funds for
lending and other investment purposes.  The Bank derives funds from amortization
and prepayment of loans and, to a much lesser  extent,  maturities of investment
securities,  borrowings,  mortgage-backed  securities and operations.  Scheduled
loan principal repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit
inflows and  outflows  and loan  prepayments  are  significantly  influenced  by
general interest rates and market conditions.

      Deposits.  Consumer and commercial deposits are attracted principally from
within the Bank's  primary  market area  through the  offering of a selection of
deposit instruments  including regular savings accounts,  money market accounts,
and term  certificate  accounts.  Deposit  account  terms vary  according to the
minimum balance required,  the time period the funds must remain on deposit, and
the  interest  rate,  among other  factors.  At June 30,  1997,  the Bank had no
brokered accounts.

      Time Deposits. The following table indicates the amount of the Bank's time
deposits  of $100,000 or more by time  remaining  until  maturity as of June 30,
1997.

Borrowings

      The Bank may obtain advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh to supplement its
supply of lendable  funds.  Advances from the FHLB of  Pittsburgh  are typically
secured by a pledge of the Bank's stock in the FHLB of Pittsburgh  and a portion
of the Bank's first  mortgage  loans and certain other assets.  Each FHLB credit
program has its own interest rate, which may be fixed or variable,  and range of
maturities.  The Bank, if the need arises,  may also access the Federal  Reserve
Bank  discount  window to  supplement  its supply of lendable  funds and to meet
deposit withdrawal requirements.

Subsidiary Activity

      The Bank is  permitted  to  invest up to 2% of its  assets in the  capital
stock of, or secured or unsecured  loans to,  subsidiary  corporations,  with an
additional  investment  of 1% of  assets  when  such  additional  investment  is
utilized primarily for community deveopment purposes. At June 30, 1997, the Bank
had one wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Advance Financial Service Corporation of West
Virginia ("Service Corporation").  The Service Corporation was formed in 1989 to
hold stock in the Bank's outside data processing servicer. The Bank's investment
in its  subsidiary  totalled  $15,000 at June 30, 1997. As of June 30, 1997, the
Service  Corporation  had not  conducted any  operations  other than to hold the
stock of that servicer.

Employees

      At June 30, 1997 the Bank had 35 full-time and 2 part-time employees. None
of the Bank's  employees are represented by a collective  bargaining  group. The
Bank believes that its relationship with its employees is good.

Regulation

      Set forth below is a brief  description  of certain laws which  related to
the regulation of the Company and the Bank. The description  does not purport to
be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable laws and
regulations.

Company Regulation

      General. The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject
to regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company is required to register
and file reports with the OTS and is subject to regulation  and  examination  by
the OTS. In addition, the OTS has enforcement authority over the Company and its
non-savings association subsidiaries,  should such subsidiaries be formed, which
also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit  activities  that are determined to
be a serious risk to the subsidiary  savings  association.  This  regulation and
oversight is intended primarily for the protection of the depositors of the Bank
and not for the benefit of stockholders of the Company.


                                       15

<PAGE>



      Qualified  Thrift  Lender  Test.  As a unitary  savings  and loan  holding
company, the Company generally is not subject to activity restrictions, provided
the Bank  satisfies  the Qualified  Thrift  Lender  ("QTL") test. If the Company
acquires  control of another savings  association as a separate  subsidiary,  it
would become a multiple savings and loan holding company,  and the activities of
the  Company  and any of its  subsidiaries  (other  than the  Bank or any  other
SAIF-insured   savings   association)   would  become  subject  to  restrictions
applicable to bank holding  companies unless such other  associations  each also
qualify  as a QTL  and  were  acquired  in a  supervisory  acquisition.  See  "-
Regulation of the Bank Qualified Thrift Lender Test."

Regulation of the Bank

      General. As a federally chartered,  SAIF-insured savings association,  the
Bank is  subject  to  extensive  regulation  by the OTS  and the  FDIC.  Lending
activities and other  investments must comply with various federal statutory and
regulatory   requirements.   The  Bank  is  also  subject  to  certain   reserve
requirements promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board.

      The OTS, in  conjunction  with the FDIC,  regularly  examines the Bank and
prepares  reports for the  consideration of the Bank's Board of Directors on any
deficiencies that are found in the Bank's  operations.  The Bank's  relationship
with its depositors and borrowers is also regulated to a great extent by federal
and state law,  especially in such matters as the ownership of savings  accounts
and the form and content of the Bank's mortgage documents.

      The Bank  must  file  reports  with the OTS and the  FDIC  concerning  its
activities  and  financial  condition,   in  addition  to  obtaining  regulatory
approvals  prior to entering into certain  transactions  such as mergers with or
acquisitions  of other savings  institutions.  This  regulation and  supervision
establishes a comprehensive  framework of activities in which an institution can
engage and is intended  primarily for the protection of the SAIF and depositors.
The  regulatory  structure  also  gives  the  regulatory  authorities  extensive
discretion in connection with their  supervisory and enforcement  activities and
examination  policies,  including policies with respect to the classification of
assets and the  establishment  of adequate  loan loss  reserves  for  regulatory
purposes.

      Under  separate   proposed   legislation,   Congress  is  considering  the
elimination of the federal thrift charter and the separate federal regulation of
thrifts.  As a result,  the Bank might have to convert to a different  financial
institution  charter and be  regulated  under  federal law as a bank,  including
being subject to the more restrictive  activity  limitations imposed on national
banks.  The Bank cannot  predict the impact of its  conversion to, or regulation
as, a bank until the legislation requiring such change is enacted.

      Insurance of Deposit Accounts.  The Bank's deposit accounts are insured by
the SAIF to a maximum of $100,000 for each insured member (as defined by law and
regulation).  Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding
that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe
or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law,
regulation,  rule, order or condition  imposed by the FDIC or the  institution's
primary regulator.  The FDIC may also prohibit an insured depository institution
from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines  poses a serious threat to the
SAIF.

      The FDIC charges an annual  assessment for the insurance of deposits based
on the risk a  particular  institution  poses  to its  deposit  insurance  fund,
depending upon the institution's risk  classification.  This risk classification
is based on an institution's capital group and supervisory subgroup

                                       16

<PAGE>



assignment.  In addition,  the FDIC is authorized to increase deposit  insurance
rates on a semi-annual  basis if it determines  that such action is necessary to
cause the balance in the SAIF to reach the designated  reserve ratio of 1.25% of
SAIF-insured  deposits  within a reasonable  period of time. The FDIC may impose
special  assessments  on SAIF members to repay  amounts  borrowed  from the U.S.
Treasury  or for any  other  reason  deemed  necessary  by the  FDIC.  Prior  to
September 30, 1996, savings  associations paid within a range of .23% to .31% of
domestic  deposits and the SAIF was  substantially  underfunded.  By comparison,
prior to  September  30,  1996,  members  of the Bank  Insurance  Fund  ("BIF"),
predominantly  commercial banks,  were required to pay  substantially  lower, or
virtually no, federal deposit insurance premiums.

      Effective  September  30,  1996,  federal  law was  revised  to  mandate a
one-time  special  assessment on SAIF members such as the Bank of  approximately
 .657% of deposits held on March 31, 1995.  The Bank recorded a $470,000  pre-tax
expense for this  assessment at September 30, 1996.  Beginning  January 1, 1997,
deposit  insurance  assessments  for SAIF members were reduced to  approximately
 .064% of deposits on an annual basis;  this rate may continue through the end of
1999. During this same period,  BIF members are expected to be annually assessed
approximately  .013%  of  deposits.  Thereafter,  assessments  for BIF and  SAIF
members  should be the same and the SAIF and BIF may be merged.  It is  expected
that these continuing  assessments for both SAIF and BIF members will be used to
repay outstanding Financing  Corporation bond obligations.  As a result of these
changes,  beginning January 1, 1997, the rate of deposit insurance  assessed the
Bank substantially declined.

      Regulatory Capital  Requirements.  OTS capital regulations require savings
institutions to meet three capital standards: (1) tangible capital equal to 1.5%
of total adjusted assets,  (2) a leverage ratio (core capital) equal to at least
3% of total adjusted assets, and (3) a risk-based  capital  requirement equal to
8.0% of total risk-weighted assets.

      Dividend  and Other  Capital  Distribution  Limitations.  OTS  regulations
require  the  Bank  to  give  the OTS 30 days  advance  notice  of any  proposed
declaration of dividends to the Company, and the OTS has the authority under its
supervisory powers to prohibit the payment of dividends to the Company.

      OTS  regulations  impose  limitations  upon all capital  distributions  by
savings  institutions,  such  as  cash  dividends,  payments  to  repurchase  or
otherwise acquire its shares, payments to shareholders of another institution in
a cash-out  merger and other  distributions  charged against  capital.  The rule
establishes  three tiers of  institutions,  based primarily on an  institution's
capital  level.  An  institution  that  exceeds  all  fully  phased-in   capital
requirements  before  and  after  a  proposed  capital   distribution  ("Tier  1
institution")  and has not  been  advised  by the OTS that it is in need of more
than the normal  supervision can, after prior notice but without the approval of
the OTS, make capital  distributions during a calendar year equal to the greater
of (i) 100% of its net income to date during the  calendar  year plus the amount
that would reduce by one-half its "surplus  capital  ratio" (the excess  capital
over its fully phased-in capital  requirements) at the beginning of the calendar
year,  or (ii) 75% of its net income over the most recent four  quarter  period.
Any additional capital  distributions  require prior regulatory approval.  As of
June 30,  1997,  the Bank was a Tier 1  institution.  In the  event  the  Bank's
capital fell below its fully  phased-in  requirement or the OTS notified it that
it was in need of more than  normal  supervision,  the  Bank's  ability  to make
capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the OTS could prohibit a
proposed  capital  distribution  by any  institution,  which would  otherwise be
permitted by the regulation,  if the OTS determines that such distribution would
constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.

      Qualified Thrift Lender Test.  Savings  institutions must meet a QTL test.
If the Bank  maintains  an  appropriate  level of Qualified  Thrift  Investments
(primarily  residential  mortgages and related  investments,  including  certain
mortgage-related  securities) ("QTIs") and otherwise qualifies as a QTL, it will
continue to enjoy full borrowing  privileges  from the FHLB of  Pittsburgh.  The
required  percentage of QTIs is 65% of portfolio  assets  (defined as all assets
minus  intangible  assets,  property used by the  institution  in conducting its
business and liquid  assets equal to 10% of total  assets).  Certain  assets are
subject to a  percentage  limitation  of 20% of portfolio  assets.  In addition,
savings associations may include shares of stock of the FHLBs, FNMA and FHLMC as
qualifying  QTIs. An  association  must be in compliance  with the QTL test on a
monthly basis in nine out of every 12 months.  As of June 30, 1997, the Bank was
in  compliance  with its QTL  requirement  with 81.9% of its assets  invested in
QTIs.

      Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  System.  The  Bank is a  member  of the FHLB of
Pittsburgh,  which  is  one of 12  regional  FHLBs  that  administers  the  home
financing credit function of savings associations. Each FHLB serves as a reserve
or  central  bank for its  members  within  its  assigned  region.  It is funded
primarily from proceeds derived from the sale of consolidated obligations of the
FHLB  System.  It makes loans to members  (i.e.,  advances) in  accordance  with
policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the FHLB.

      As a member,  the Bank is required to purchase and  maintain  stock in the
FHLB of  Pittsburgh  in an amount equal to at least 1% of its  aggregate  unpaid
residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts or similar obligations or 5%
of its  outstanding  borrowings to the FHLB of  Pittsburgh,  at the beginning of
each year.

      Liquidity Requirements.  All savings associations are required to maintain
an average daily  balance of liquid assets equal to a certain  percentage of the
sum of its  average  daily  balance of net  withdrawable  deposit  accounts  and
borrowings payable in one year or less. The liquidity  requirement may vary from
time to time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings
flows of all savings associations.  At June 30, 1997, the Bank's required liquid
asset ratio was 17.5%.

      Federal Reserve System.  The Federal Reserve Board requires all depository
institutions  to maintain  non-interest  bearing  reserves at  specified  levels
against  their  transaction  accounts  (primarily  checking,  NOW, and Super NOW
checking  accounts) and non-personal time deposits.  The balances  maintained to
meet the reserve  requirements  imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used
to satisfy the liquidity  requirements  that are imposed by the OTS. At June 30,
1997, the Bank was in compliance with these Federal Reserve Board requirements.

Virginia  as the  board of  directors  shall  from time to time  determine.  The
Company may also have offices at such other  places  within or without the State
of West Virginia as the board of directors shall from time to time determine.


                                   ARTICLE II
                                  Stockholders

      SECTION  1.  Place  of  Meetings.  All  annual  and  special  meetings  of
stockholders  shall be held at the  principal  office of the  Company or at such
other  place  within  or  without  the  State of West  Virginia  as the board of
directors may determine and as designated in the notice of such meeting.

      SECTION 2. Annual  Meeting.  A meeting of the  stockholders of the Company
for the election of directors and for the  transaction  of any other business of
the  Company  shall be held  annually  at such  date  and  time as the  board of
directors may determine.

      SECTION 3. Special Meetings.  Special meetings of the stockholders for any
purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the  president or by a majority
of the board of  directors or by a committee  of the board of  directors,  whose
members  will be  designated  from time to time by the board of  directors,  and
which  committee  will have been  delegated the power and authority to call such
meetings.


      SECTION 4.  Conduct of  Meetings.  Annual and  special  meetings  shall be
conducted in accordance  with the rules and procedures  established by the board
of directors. The board of directors shall designate, when present, any director
or the president to preside at such meetings.

      SECTION 5. Notice of Meetings.  Written notice stating the place, day, and
hour of the meeting and the purpose or purposes  for which the meeting is called
shall be mailed by the secretary or the officer performing such duties, not less
than ten days nor more than sixty days before the meeting to each stockholder of
record entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, notice shall be deemed to be
delivered when deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the stockholder

Company as of the record date  prescribed  in Section 6 of this Article II, with
postage thereon prepaid. If a stockholder is present at a meeting, or in writing
waives notice thereof before or after the meeting, notice of the meeting to such
stockholder shall be unnecessary.  When any stockholders' meeting, either annual
or special,  is adjourned for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment
a new record date is fixed for the  adjourned  meeting,  notice of the adjourned
meeting  shall be given as in the case of an original  meeting.  It shall not be

meeting,  other than an announcement at the meeting at which such adjournment is

<PAGE>



      SECTION  6.  Fixing  of  Record  Date.  For  the  purpose  of  determining
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders, or
any  adjournment  thereof,  or  stockholders  entitled to receive payment of any
dividend,  or in order to make a  determination  of  stockholders  for any other
proper purpose, the board of directors shall fix in advance a date as the record
date for any such determination of stockholders.  Such date in any case shall be
not more than sixty  days,  and in case of a meeting of  stockholders,  not less
than ten days prior to the date on which the particular  action,  requiring such
determination  of  stockholders,  is  to  be  taken.  When  a  determination  of
stockholders  entitled to vote at any meeting of  stockholders  has been made as
provided in this  section,  such  determination  shall apply to any  adjournment
thereof;  provided,  however,  that the board of directors  may fix a new record
date for the adjourned meeting.

      SECTION 7. Voting  Lists.  The officer or agent having charge of the stock
transfer  books for shares of the Company  shall make,  at least ten days before
each meeting of stockholders,  a complete record of the stockholders entitled to
vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order,
with the  address of and the number of shares held by each.  The  record,  for a
period of ten days before such  meeting,  shall be kept on file at the principal
office of the Company, and shall be subject to inspection by any stockholder for
any purpose germane to the meeting at any time during usual business hours. Such
record shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting
and shall be  subject  to the  inspection  of any  stockholder  for any  purpose
germane to the meeting during the whole time of the meeting.  The original stock
transfer  books  shall  be the  only  evidence  as to who are  the  stockholders
entitled to examine  such record or transfer  books or to vote at any meeting of
stockholders.

      SECTION 8.  Quorum.  A majority of the  outstanding  shares of the Company
entitled to vote,  represented in person or by proxy,  shall constitute a quorum
at a meeting of stockholders.  If less than a majority of the outstanding shares
are  represented  at a meeting,  a majority  of the  shares so  represented  may
adjourn the meeting  from time to time,  subject to the notice  requirements  of
Section 5 of this Article II. At such adjourned  meeting at which a quorum shall
be present or represented,  any business may be transacted which might have been
transacted at the meeting as originally notified.  The stockholders present at a
duly  organized  meeting may continue to transact  business  until  adjournment,
notwithstanding  the  withdrawal  of enough  stockholders  to leave  less than a
quorum.

      SECTION 9. Proxies.  At all meetings of  stockholders,  a stockholder  may
vote  by  proxy  executed  by the  stockholder  in the  manner  provided  by the
Certificate  of  Incorporation.  Proxies  solicited on behalf of the  management
shall be  voted as  directed  by the  stockholder  or,  in the  absence  of such
direction,  as  determined  by a  majority  of the  board of  directors  or by a
majority  of a  committee  of the  board of  directors,  whose  members  will be
designated from time to time by the board of directors, and which committee will
have been  delegated  the power and  authority  to act on behalf of the board of
directors.  No proxy  shall be valid  after  eleven  months from the date of its
execution unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

      SECTION 10.  Voting.  At each  election for  directors  every  stockholder
entitled to vote at such  election  shall be entitled to one vote for each share
of stock held by him.  Directors shall be elected by a plurality of votes of the
shares  present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to
vote on the election of directors.  Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate
of  Incorporation,  by statute,  or by these  Bylaws,  in matters other than the
election of directors, a majority of the shares present in person or represented
by proxy at a lawful meeting and entitled to vote on the subject  matter,  shall
be sufficient to pass on a transaction or matter.

      SECTION  11.  Voting of Shares  in the Name of Two or More  Persons.  When
ownership of stock stands in the name of two or more persons,  in the absence of
written  directions  to the  Company  to the  contrary,  at any  meeting  of the
stockholders of the Company,  any one or more of such  stockholders may cast, in
person or by proxy, all votes to which such ownership is entitled.  In the event
an  attempt is made to cast  conflicting  votes,  in person or by proxy,  by the
several persons in whose names shares of stock stand, the vote or votes to which
these  persons  are  entitled  shall be cast as  directed by a majority of those
holding  such stock and  present in person or by proxy at such  meeting,  but no
votes shall be cast for such stock if a majority cannot agree.

      SECTION 12. Voting of Shares by Certain  Holders.  Shares  standing in the
name of another corporation may be voted by any officer,  agent, or proxy as the
bylaws of such corporation may prescribe,  or, in the absence of such provision,
as the board of directors of such  corporation may determine.  Shares held by an
administrator,  executor, guardian, trustee, or conservator may be voted by such
person,  either in person or by proxy,  without a transfer  of such  shares into
such person's  name.  Shares  standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by
such  receiver,  and shares  held by or under the  control of a receiver  may be
voted by such receiver without the transfer thereof into such receiver's name if
authority to do so is contained  in an  appropriate  order of the court or other
public authority by which such receiver was appointed.

            A  stockholder  whose  shares are pledged  shall be entitled to vote
such shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee,
and thereafter, the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

            Neither  treasury  shares of its own stock held by the Company,  nor
shares held by another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote
for the election of directors of such other corporation are held by the Company,
shall be voted at any  meeting  or counted in  determining  the total  number of
outstanding shares at any given time for purposes of any meeting.

      SECTION  13.  Inspectors  of  Election.  In  advance  of  any  meeting  of
stockholders,  the board of  directors  may  appoint  any  persons,  other  than
nominees  for office,  as  inspectors  of election to act at such meeting or any
adjournment  thereof.  The number of inspectors shall be either one or three. If
the  board  of  directors  so  appoints  either  one or three  inspectors,  that
appointment  shall not be altered at the meeting.  If inspectors of election are
not so  appointed,  the chairman of the board of directors or the  president may
make such appointment at the meeting.  In case any person appointed as inspector
fails to  appear  or fails or  refuses  to act,  the  vacancy  may be  filled by
appointment  by the board of  directors  in  advance  of the  meeting  or at the
meeting by the chairman of the meeting or the president.

            Unless  otherwise  prescribed by applicable  law, the duties of such
inspectors  shall  include:  determining  the  number of shares of stock and the
voting power of each share, the shares of stock represented at the meeting,  the
existence  of a quorum,  the  authenticity,  validity  and  effect  of  proxies;
receiving votes, ballots or consents; hearing and determining all challenges and
questions in any way arising in connection with the right to vote;  counting and
tabulating all votes or consents;  determining the result;  and such acts as may
be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders.

      SECTION 14. Nominating Committee.  The board of directors,  or a committee
of the board of  directors  delegated  such power and  authority by the board of
directors,  shall act as a nominating  committee for  selecting  the  management
nominees for election as directors.  Except in the case of a nominee substituted
as a result  of the  death or other  incapacity  of a  management  nominee,  the
nominating committee shall deliver written nominations to the secretary at least
twenty days prior to the date of the annual  meeting.  Provided  such  committee
makes such nominations, no nominations for directors except

                                       -3-

<PAGE>



those made by the nominating committee shall be voted upon at the annual meeting
unless other  nominations by  stockholders  are made in writing and delivered to
the  secretary of the Company in accordance  with the  provisions of Article II,
Section 15 of these Bylaws.

      SECTION  15.  Notice  for  Nominations   and  Proposals.   Nominations  of
candidates for election as directors at any annual meeting of  stockholders  may
be made (a) by, or at the  direction of, a majority of the board of directors or
a committee  thereof in accordance with Section 14 of these Bylaws or (b) by any
stockholder  entitled to vote at such annual meeting.  Only persons nominated in
accordance  with the  procedures  set forth in this Section 15 shall be eligible
for election as directors at an annual meeting. Ballots bearing the names of all
the persons who have been  nominated  for  election  as  directors  at an annual
meeting in accordance  with the procedures set forth in this Section 15 shall be
provided for use at the annual meeting.

      Nominations,  other than those made in accordance with Section 14 of these
Bylaws,  shall be made  pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Secretary of
the  Company  as set forth in this  Section  15. To be timely,  a  stockholder's
notice shall be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal office of
the  Company  not  less  than  60  days  prior  to the  anniversary  date of the
immediately  preceding annual meeting of stockholders of the Company;  provided,
however, that with respect to the first scheduled annual meeting,  notice by the
stockholder must be so delivered or received no later than the close of business
on the tenth day  following the day on which notice of the date of the scheduled
meeting must be delivered or received no later than the close of business on the
fifth day preceding the date of the meeting. Such stockholder's notice shall set
forth (a) as to each  person  whom the  stockholder  proposes  to  nominate  for
election  or  re-election  as a director  and as to the  stockholder  giving the
notice (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person,
(ii) the principal  occupation or employment of such person, (iii) the class and
number of shares of Company  stock which are  Beneficially  Owned (as defined in
Article XIII of the Certificate of  Incorporation) by such person on the date of
such stockholder notice, and (iv) any other information  relating to such person
that is required to be  disclosed  in  solicitations  of proxies with respect to
nominees  for  election  as  directors,  pursuant  to  Regulation  14A under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), including, but
not limited to,  information  required to be disclosed by Items 4, 5, 6 and 7 of
Schedule 14A to be filed with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  (or any
successors  of such items or schedule or, if no successor to such items  exists,
then in  accordance  with  these  items  as they  existed  upon  the date of the
adoption of these Bylaws);  and (b) as to the stockholder  giving the notice (i)
the name and address, as they appear on the Company's books, of such stockholder
and any other  stockholders  known by such  stockholder  to be  supporting  such
nominees  and (ii) the class and  number of shares of  Company  stock  which are
Beneficially  Owned by such stockholder on the date of such  stockholder  notice
and, to the extent known, by any other stockholders known by such stockholder to
be  supporting  such  nominees on the date of such  stockholder  notice.  At the
request of the board of directors,  any person nominated by, or at the direction
of, the Board for election as a director at an annual  meeting  shall furnish to
the  Secretary  of the Company  that  information  required to be set forth in a
stockholder's notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee.

      Proposals,  other than those made by or at the  direction  of the board of
directors,  shall be made  pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Secretary
of the Company as set forth in this Section 15. For stockholder  proposals to be
included in the Company's proxy materials,  the stockholder must comply with all
the timing and informational  requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act (or
any  successor  regulation  or,  if no  successor  regulation  exists,  then  in
accordance  with the  regulation  as it existed upon the date of the adoption of
these  Bylaws).  With respect to  stockholder  proposals to be considered at the
annual  meeting  of  stockholders  but  not  included  in  the  Company's  proxy
materials,  the  stockholder's  notice  shall be  delivered  to, or  mailed  and
received at, the principal office of the Company not less than

                                       -4-

<PAGE>



60 days  prior  to the  anniversary  date of the  immediately  preceding  annual
meeting of  stockholders  of the Company.  Such  stockholder's  notice shall set
forth as to each  matter the  stockholder  proposes  to bring  before the annual
meeting (a) a brief description of the proposal desired to be brought before the
annual  meeting  and the  reasons  for  conducting  such  business at the annual
meeting, (b) the name and address, as they appear on the Company's books, of the
stockholder  proposing  such  business  and,  to the  extent  known,  any  other
stockholders  known by such stockholder to be supporting such proposal,  (c) the
class and number of shares of the Company stock which are Beneficially  Owned by
the stockholder on the date of such stockholder notice and, to the extent known,
by any  other  stockholders  known by such  stockholder  to be  supporting  such
proposal on the date of such stockholder  notice, and (d) any financial interest
of the stockholder in such proposal (other than interests which all stockholders
would have).

      The board of  directors  may reject any  nomination  by a  stockholder  or
stockholder proposal not timely made in accordance with the requirements of this
Section  15. If the  board of  directors,  or a  designated  committee  thereof,
determines  that the  information  provided in a  stockholder's  notice does not
satisfy the  informational  requirements of this Section 15 in any respect,  the
Secretary of the Company shall notify such  stockholder of the deficiency in the
notice.  The  stockholder  shall have an  opportunity  to cure the deficiency by
providing  additional  information to the Secretary  within such period of time,
not to exceed  five days  from the date such  deficiency  notice is given to the
stockholder,  as the  board of  directors  or such  committee  shall  reasonably
determine. If the deficiency is not cured within such period, or if the board of
directors  or  such  committee   reasonably   determines   that  the  additional
information  provided by the stockholder,  together with information  previously
provided,  does not satisfy the  requirements of this Section 15 in any respect,
then the  board  of  directors  may  reject  such  stockholder's  nomination  or
proposal.  The Secretary of the Company  shall notify a  stockholder  in writing
whether such  stockholder's  nomination  or proposal has been made in accordance
with the time and informational requirements of this Section 15. Notwithstanding
the  procedures set forth in this  paragraph,  if neither the board of directors
nor such committee makes a  determination  as to the validity of any nominations
or proposals by a stockholder, the presiding officer of the annual meeting shall
determine and declare at the annual  meeting  whether the nomination or proposal
was made in  accordance  with the terms of this  Section  15.  If the  presiding
officer determines that a nomination or proposal was made in accordance with the
terms of this Section 15, the  presiding  officer shall so declare at the annual
meeting and ballots  shall be provided  for use at the meeting  with  respect to
such nominee or proposal.  If the presiding officer determines that a nomination
or proposal  was not made in  accordance  with the terms of this Section 15, the
presiding shall so declare at the annual meeting and the defective nomination or
proposal shall be disregarded.


                                   ARTICLE III
                               Board of Directors

      SECTION 1. General  Powers.  The business and affairs of the Company shall
be under the direction of its board of directors.  The board of directors  shall
annually  elect a president from among its members and may also elect a chairman
of the board from among its  members.  The board of directors  shall  designate,
when present, any director or the president to preside at its meetings.

      SECTION 2.  Number,  Term,  and  Election.  The board of  directors  shall
consist of eight (8) members and shall be divided  into three  classes as nearly
equal in number as  possible.  The  members of each class shall be elected for a
term of three years and until their  successors  are elected or  qualified.  The
board of directors  shall be classified in accordance with the provisions of the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation.  The board of directors may increase the
number of members of the board of directors  but in no event shall the number of
directors be increased in excess of fifteen.

      SECTION 3. Place of Meetings. All annual and special meetings of the board
of  directors  shall be held at the  principal  office of the Company or at such
other  place  within  or  without  the  State of West  Virginia  as the board of
directors may  determine  and as  designated  in the notice of such meeting,  if
necessary.

      SECTION 4. Regular  Meetings.  A regular meeting of the board of directors
shall be held without  other notice than this Bylaw at such time and date as the
board of directors may determine.

      SECTION 5. Special  Meetings.  Special  meetings of the board of directors
may be called by or at the request of the  president,  the chairman of the board
of directors,  or by one-third of the directors.  The persons authorized to call
special  meetings of the board of directors  may fix any place within or without
the State of West  Virginia as the place for holding any special  meeting of the
board of directors called by such persons.

      Members of the board of directors may  participate in special  meetings by
means of conference telephone or similar  communications  equipment by which all
persons participating in the meeting can hear each other.

      SECTION 6. Notice. Written notice of any special meeting shall be given to
each  director at least two days  previous  thereto  delivered  personally or by
telegram or at least five days previous thereto delivered by mail at the address
at which the director is most likely to be reached.  Such notice shall be deemed
to be delivered  when  deposited in the United  States mail so  addressed,  with
postage thereon prepaid if mailed or when delivered to the telegraph  company if
sent by  telegram.  Any  director  may waive  notice of any meeting by a writing
filed with the secretary before, during, or after the meeting. The attendance of
a director at a meeting  shall  constitute  a waiver of notice of such  meeting,
except where a director  attends a meeting for the express  purpose of objecting
to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or
convened.  Neither  the  business to be  transacted  at, nor the purpose of, any
meeting of the board of  directors  need be specified in the notice or waiver of
notice of such meeting.

      SECTION 7. Quorum.  A majority of the number of directors fixed by Section
2 of Article III shall  constitute a quorum for the  transaction  of business at
any meeting of the board of directors, but if less than such majority is present
at a meeting,  a majority of the directors  present may adjourn the meeting from
time to time.  Notice of any adjourned meeting shall be given in the same manner
as prescribed by Section 6 of Article III.

      SECTION 8.  Manner of Acting.  The act of the  majority  of the  directors
present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the entire
board of directors,  unless a greater number is prescribed by these Bylaws,  the
Certificate of Incorporation, or the laws of Delaware.

      SECTION 9. Action Without a Meeting.  Any action  required or permitted to
be taken by the board of directors  at a meeting may be taken  without a meeting
if a consent in writing,  setting forth the action so taken,  shall be signed by
all of the directors.

      SECTION 10. Resignation.  Any director may resign at any time by sending a
written  notice of such  resignation  to the  principal  office  of the  Company
addressed to the president.  Unless otherwise  specified herein such resignation
shall take effect upon receipt thereof by the president.

      SECTION 11.  Vacancies.  Any vacancy  occurring  in the board of directors
shall be filled in accordance  with the provisions of the Company's  Certificate
of Incorporation.  Any directorship to be filled by reason of an increase in the
number of directors may be filled by the  affirmative  vote of two-thirds of the
directors then in office.  The term of such director shall be in accordance with
the provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation.

      SECTION 12. Removal of Directors. Any director or the entire board of
directors  may be  removed  for  cause  and  then  only in  accordance  with the
provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation.

      SECTION 13. Compensation. Directors, as such, may receive a stated fee for
their services. By resolution of the board of directors, a reasonable fixed sum,
and  reasonable  expenses  of  attendance,  if any,  may be  allowed  for actual
attendance at each regular or special meeting of the board of directors. Members
of either standing or special  committees may be allowed such  compensation  for
actual attendance at committee meetings as the board of directors may determine.
Nothing  herein shall be  construed  to preclude  any director  from serving the
Company in any other capacity and receiving remuneration therefor.

      SECTION  14.  Presumption  of Assent.  A director  of the  Company  who is
present at a meeting of the board of directors at which action on any  corporate
matter is taken shall be presumed to have  assented to the action  taken  unless
the  director's  dissent or  abstention  shall be entered in the  minutes of the
meeting or unless the director shall file a written  dissent to such action with
the person acting as the secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof
or shall forward such dissent by registered mail to the secretary of the Company
immediately  after the  adjournment of the meeting.  Such right to dissent shall
not apply to a director who votes in favor of such action.


                                   ARTICLE IV
                      Committees of the Board of Directors

      The board of directors may, by resolution passed by a simple majority of a
quorum, designate one or more committees,  as they may determine to be necessary
or appropriate for the conduct of the business of the Company, and may prescribe
the duties,  constitution,  and procedures thereof. Each committee shall consist
of one or more  directors of the Company.  The board may  designate  one or more
directors as alternate  members of any committee,  who may replace any absent or
disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.

      The board of  directors  shall have power,  by the  affirmative  vote of a
majority  of the  authorized  number of  directors,  at any time to  change  the
members of, to fill  vacancies  in, and to discharge any committee of the board.
Any member of any such  committee may resign at any time by giving notice to the
Company  provided,  however,  that notice to the board of  directors,  the chief
executive  officer,  the chairman of such  committee,  or the secretary shall be
deemed to constitute  notice to the Company.  Such resignation shall take effect
upon receipt of such notice or at any later time specified therein;  and, unless
otherwise  specified  therein,  acceptance  of  such  resignation  shall  not be
necessary to make it effective.  Any member of any such committee may be removed
at any time, either with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of a majority
of the  authorized  number of  directors  at any meeting of the board called for
that purpose.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                    Officers

      SECTION 1.  Positions.  The officers of the Company  shall include a chief
executive officer,  president,  one or more vice presidents,  a secretary, and a
treasurer,  each of whom shall be elected by the board of directors. The offices
of the  secretary  and  treasurer  may be held  by the  same  person  and a vice
president  may also be  either  the  secretary  or the  treasurer.  The board of
directors may designate one or more vice  presidents as executive vice president
or senior vice president. The board of directors may also elect or authorize the
appointment  of such other  officers as the business of the Company may require.
The officers  shall have such  authority and perform such duties as the board of
directors may from time to time authorize or determine. In the absence of action
by the board of  directors,  the  officers  shall have such powers and duties as
generally pertain to their respective offices.

      SECTION 2. Election and Term of Office.  The officers of the Company shall
be elected  annually by the board of directors at the first meeting of the board
of directors held after each annual meeting of the stockholders. If the election
of officers is not held at such  meeting,  such  election  shall be held as soon
thereafter as possible.  Each officer shall hold office until a successor  shall
have been duly  elected  and  qualified,  until death or  resignation,  or until
removal  in the manner  hereinafter  provided.  Election  or  appointment  of an
officer,  employee,  or agent shall not of itself create  contract  rights.  The
board of  directors  may  authorize  the  Company  to enter  into an  employment
contract  with any officer in  accordance  with state law; but no such  contract
shall  impair the right of the board of  directors  to remove any officer at any
time in accordance with Section 3 of this Article V.

      SECTION 3. Removal. Any officer may be removed by the vote of the majority
of the board of directors whenever,  in its judgment,  the best interests of the
Company will be served thereby, but such removal, other than for cause, shall be
without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed.

      SECTION  4.  Vacancies.   A  vacancy  in  any  office  because  of  death,
resignation, removal, disqualification, or otherwise, may be filled by the board
of directors for the unexpired portion of the term.

      SECTION 5.  Remuneration.  The remuneration of the officers shall be fixed
from time to time by the board of  directors  and no officer  shall be prevented
from  receiving  such  salary by reason of the fact that the  officer  is also a
director of the Company.



                                   ARTICLE VI
                      Contracts, Loans, Checks and Deposits

      SECTION 1.  Contracts.  To the extent  permitted  by  applicable  law, and
except as otherwise prescribed by the Company's  Certificate of Incorporation or
these Bylaws with respect to certificates for shares, the board of directors may
authorize  any  officer,  employee,  or agent of the  Company  to enter into any
contract or execute and deliver any  instrument  in the name of and on behalf of
the Company. Such authority may be general or confined to specific instances.


                                       -8-

<PAGE>



      SECTION 2. Loans.  No loans shall be  contracted  on behalf of the Company
and no evidence of indebtedness shall be issued in its name unless authorized by
the board of  directors.  Such  authority may be general or confined to specific
instances.

      SECTION 3. Checks, Drafts, Etc. All checks, drafts or other orders for the
payment of money,  notes, or other evidences of indebtedness  issued in the name
of the Company shall be signed by one or more officers,  employees, or agents of
the  Company  in such  manner  as  shall  from  time to  time be  determined  by
resolution of the board of directors.

      SECTION 4. Deposits. All funds of the Company not otherwise employed shall
be  deposited  from time to time to the credit of the Company in any of its duly
authorized depositories as the board of directors may select.


                                   ARTICLE VII
                   Certificates for Shares and Their Transfer

      SECTION 1.  Certificates  for Shares.  The shares of the Company  shall be
represented by  certificates  signed by the president or a vice president and by
the  treasurer or by the  secretary  of the Company,  and may be sealed with the
seal of the Company or a facsimile thereof.  Any or all of the signatures upon a
certificate may be facsimiles if the certificate is  countersigned by a transfer
agent,  or  registered  by a  registrar,  other  than the  Company  itself or an
employee  of the  Company.  If any  officer  who has  signed or whose  facsimile
signature  has been  placed upon such  certificate  shall have ceased to be such
officer before the  certificate is issued,  it may be issued by the Company with
the same effect as if the person were such officer at the date of its issue.

      SECTION  2.  Form of Share  Certificates.  All  certificates  representing
shares  issued by the  Company  shall  set forth  upon the face or back that the
Company will furnish to any  stockholder  upon request and without charge a full
statement of the designations,  preferences, limitations, and relative rights of
the shares of each class authorized to be issued, the variations in the relative
rights and preferences between the shares of each such series so far as the same
have been fixed and  determined,  and the authority of the board of directors to
fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of subsequent series.

      Each  certificate  representing  shares shall state upon the face thereof:
that the Company is organized under the laws of the State of Delaware;  the name
of the person to whom issued; the number and class of shares; the date of issue;
the designation of the series,  if any, which such certificate  represents;  and
the par value of each share represented by such certificate, or a statement that
the shares are  without  par value.  Other  matters in regard to the form of the
certificates shall be determined by the board of directors.

      SECTION 3.  Payment for  Shares.  No  certificate  shall be issued for any
share until such share is fully paid.

      SECTION 4. Form of Payment for Shares.  The consideration for the issuance
of shares shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Delaware law.


                                       -9-

<PAGE>



      SECTION 5. Transfer of Shares.  Transfer of shares of capital stock of the
Company  shall be made  only on its stock  transfer  books.  Authority  for such
transfer shall be given only by the holder of record thereof or by such person's
legal representative, who shall furnish proper evidence of such authority, or by
the person's  attorney  thereunto  authorized by power of attorney duly executed
and filed with the Company.  Such  transfer  shall be made only on surrender for
cancellation of the certificate for such shares. The person in whose name shares
of  capital  stock  stand on the  books of the  Company  shall be  deemed by the
Company to be the owner thereof for all purposes.

      SECTION 6. Stock Ledger. The stock ledger of the Company shall be the only
evidence as to who are the  stockholders  entitled to examine the stock  ledger,
the list required by Section 7 of Article II, or the books of the Company, or to
vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

      SECTION  7. Lost  Certificates.  The board of  directors  may direct a new
certificate to be issued in place of any certificate  theretofore  issued by the
Company alleged to have been lost,  stolen, or destroyed,  upon the making of an
affidavit  of that fact by the person  claiming the  certificate  of stock to be
lost,  stolen,  or destroyed.  When authorizing such issue of a new certificate,
the board of directors may, in its  discretion  and as a condition  precedent to
the  issuance  thereof,  require the owner of such lost,  stolen,  or  destroyed
certificate, or the owner's legal representative,  to give the Company a bond in
such sum as it may  direct  as  indemnity  against  any  claim  that may be made
against the Company with respect to the  certificate  alleged to have been lost,
stolen, or destroyed.

      SECTION 8. Beneficial  Owners.  The Company shall be entitled to recognize
the exclusive  right of a person  registered on its books as the owner of shares
to  receive  dividends,  and to vote as such  owner,  and  shall not be bound to

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT


      THIS  AGREEMENT  entered  into  this  15th day of July,  1997  ("Effective
Date"),  by and between Advance  Financial Savings Bank (the "Savings Bank") and
Stephen M. Gagliardi (the "Employee").

      WHEREAS,  the Employee has heretofore been employed by the Savings Bank as
President and Chief  Executive  Officer and is  experienced in all phases of the
business of the Savings Bank; and

      WHEREAS,  the parties  desire by this writing to set forth the  continuing
employment relationship of the Savings Bank and the Employee.

      NOW, THEREFORE, it is AGREED as follows:

      1.  Employment.  The Employee is employed in the capacity as the President
and Chief Executive  Officer of the Savings Bank. The Employee shall render such
administrative and management services to the Savings Bank and Advance Financial
Bancorp ("Parent") as are currently rendered and as are customarily performed by
persons situated in a similar executive capacity. The Employee shall promote the
business of the Savings Bank and Parent.  The  Employee's  other duties shall be
such as the Board of Directors for the Savings Bank (the "Board of Directors" or
"Board") may from time to time reasonably direct,  including normal duties as an
officer of the Savings Bank.

      2. Base  Compensation.  The Savings Bank agrees to pay the Employee during
the Term of this Agreement (as hereinafter defined at Section 5) a salary at the

monthly;  provided,  that the rate of such salary shall be reviewed by the Board
of Directors  not less often than  annually,  and Employee  shall be entitled to
receive  annually  an increase  at such  percentage  or in such an amount as the
Board of Directors in its sole discretion may decide at such time.

      3.  Discretionary  Bonus. The Employee shall be entitled to participate in
an equitable  manner with all other senior  management  employees of the Savings
Bank in  discretionary  bonuses that may be authorized and declared by the Board
of  Directors to its senior  management  employees  from time to time.  No other

Employee's  right  to  participate  in such  discretionary  bonuses  when and as
declared by the Board of Directors.

      4. (a)  Participation  in Retirement and Medical Plans. The Employee shall
be entitled to  participate in any plan of the Savings Bank relating to pension,
profit-sharing,   or  other   retirement   benefits  and  medical   coverage  or

Savings Bank or Parent, reimbursement for club memberships, a reasonable expense
account,  receipt of an appropriate automobile  reimbursement  allowance and any
other benefits which are commensurate with the responsibilities and functions to

shall incur in connection with his service for the Savings Bank.

      5. Term. The term of employment of Employee under this Agreement  shall be
for the  period  commencing  on the  Effective  Date and  ending  July 15,  2000
thereafter ("Term").  Additionally,  on, or before, each annual anniversary date
from the Effective  Date, the Term of employment  under this Agreement  shall be
extended  for up to an  additional  one year  period  beyond the then  effective
expiration  date upon a  determination  and resolution of the Board of Directors
that the performance of the Employee has met the  requirements  and standards of
the Board, and that the Term of such Agreement shall be extended.

      6.    Loyalty; Noncompetition.
            -----------------------

      (a)  The  Employee  shall  devote  his  full  time  and  attention  to the
performance  of  his  employment  under  this  Agreement.  During  the  term  of
Employee's employment under this Agreement, the Employee shall not engage in any
business  or activity  contrary  to the  business  affairs or  interests  of the
Savings Bank or Parent.

      (b)  Nothing  contained  in this  Section 6 shall be deemed to  prevent or

of any business  dissimilar from that of the Savings Bank or Parent,  or, solely
as a passive or minority investor, in any business.

      7.  Standards.  The Employee shall perform his duties under this Agreement
in  accordance  with  such  reasonable  standards  expected  of  employees  with
comparable positions in comparable  organizations and as may be established from
time to time by the Board of Directors.

      8.  Vacation  and Sick  Leave.  At such  reasonable  times as the Board of
Directors  shall in its  discretion  permit,  the  Employee  shall be  entitled,
without loss of pay, to absent himself  voluntarily  from the performance of his
employment under this

                                        2

<PAGE>



Agreement,  with all such voluntary absences to count as vacation time; provided
that:

      (a) The Employee shall be entitled to annual  vacation leave in accordance
with the policies as are periodically  established by the Board of Directors for
senior management employees of the Savings Bank.

      (b) The Employee shall be entitled to receive any additional  compensation
from the  Savings  Bank on account of his  failure  to take  vacation  leave and
Employee  shall not be entitled to  accumulate  unused  vacation from one fiscal
year to the next, except in either case to the extent authorized by the Board of
Directors for senior management employees of the Savings Bank.

      (c) In addition to the aforesaid  paid  vacations,  the Employee  shall be
entitled without loss of pay, to absent himself voluntarily from the performance
of his employment with the Savings Bank for such additional  periods of time and
for  such  valid  and  legitimate  reasons  as the  Board  of  Directors  in its
discretion may determine.  Further,  the Board of Directors shall be entitled to
grant to the  Employee a leave or leaves of absence  with or without pay at such
time or times and upon such terms and  conditions  as the Board of  Directors in
its discretion may determine.

      (d) In addition,  the  Employee  shall be entitled to an annual sick leave
benefit as established by the Board of Directors for senior management employees
of the Savings  Bank.  In the event that any sick leave  benefit  shall not have
been used during any year,  such leave shall accrue to  subsequent  years to the
extent authorized by the Board of Directors for employees of the Savings Bank.

      9.    Termination and Termination Pay.
            -------------------------------

      The Employee's  employment  under this Agreement  shall be terminated upon
any of the following occurrences:

      (a) The death of the Employee during the term of this Agreement,  in which
event the Employee's  estate shall be entitled to receive the  compensation  due
the  Employee  through  the  last  day of the  third  calendar  month  in  which
Employee's death shall have occurred.

      (b) The Board of Directors may terminate the Employee's  employment at any
time, but any termination by the Board of Directors  other than  termination for
Just Cause,  shall not prejudice the Employee's  right to  compensation or other
benefits  under the  Agreement.  The  Employee  shall  have no right to  receive
compensation or other benefits for any period after  termination for Just Cause.
Termination for "Just Cause" shall include termination because of the Employee's
personal dishonesty, incompetence,

                                        3

<PAGE>



willful  misconduct,   breach  of  fiduciary  duty  involving  personal  profit,
intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule
or  regulation  (other than  traffic  violations  or similar  offenses) or final
cease-and-desist order, or material breach of any provision of the Agreement.

      (c)  Except as  provided  pursuant  to  Section  12  herein,  in the event
Employee's  employment  under  this  Agreement  is  terminated  by the  Board of
Directors without Just Cause, the Bank shall be obligated to continue to pay the
Employee  the salary  provided  pursuant to Section 2 herein,  up to the date of
termination  of the Term  (including any renewal term) of this Agreement and the
cost of Employee  obtaining all health,  life,  disability,  and other  benefits
which the Employee  would be eligible to  participate in through such date based
upon the benefit levels  substantially equal to those being provided Employee at
the date of  termination  of employment.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  in no
event  shall the  Employee  receive  payment  of his salary in  accordance  with
Section 2 herein and the cost of  applicable  benefits for a period of less than
twelve months from the date of termination of employment without Just Cause.

      (d)  If  the  Employee  is  removed  and/or  permanently  prohibited  from
participating  in the conduct of the Savings  Bank's  affairs by an order issued
under Sections 8(e)(4) or 8(g)(1) of the Federal Deposit  Insurance Act ("FDIA")
(12 U.S.C.  1818(e)(4)  and (g)(1)),  all  obligations of the Savings Bank under
this Agreement shall  terminate,  as of the effective date of the order, but the
vested rights of the parties shall not be affected.

      (e) If the Savings  Bank is in default  (as defined in Section  3(x)(1) of
FDIA) all  obligations  under this Agreement  shall  terminate as of the date of
default,  but  this  paragraph  shall  not  affect  any  vested  rights  of  the
contracting parties.

      (f) All obligations  under this Agreement  shall be terminated,  except to
the extent  determined that  continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the
continued  operation of the Savings  Bank:  (i) by the Director of the Office of
Thrift  Supervision  ("Director of OTS"), or his designee,  at the time that the
Federal  Deposit  Insurance   Corporation   ("FDIC")  or  the  Resolution  Trust
Corporation  enters into an agreement to provide  assistance  to or on behalf of
the Savings Bank under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of FDIA; or (ii)
by the  Director of the OTS, or his  designee,  at the time that the Director of
the OTS,  or his  designee  approves a  supervisory  merger to resolve  problems
related to operation of the Savings Bank or when the Savings Bank is  determined
by the Director of the OTS to be in an unsafe or unsound  condition.  Any rights
of the parties that have already vested,  however, shall not be affected by such
action.


                                        4

<PAGE>



      (g) The  voluntary  termination  by the  Employee  during the term of this
Agreement  with the delivery of no less than 60 days written notice to the Board
of Directors,  other than pursuant to Section 12(b),  in which case the Employee
shall be entitled  to receive  only the  compensation,  vested  rights,  and all
employee benefits up to the date of such termination.

      (h) Notwithstanding  anything herein to the contrary, any payments made to
the Employee  pursuant to the Agreement,  or otherwise,  shall be subject to and
conditioned   upon  compliance  with  12  USC  ss.1828(k)  and  any  regulations
promulgated thereunder.

      10.  Suspension  of  Employment  . If the  Employee  is  suspended  and/or
temporarily  prohibited from  participating in the conduct of the Savings Bank's
affairs  by a notice  served  under  Section  8(e)(3)  or (g)(1) of the FDIA (12
U.S.C.  1818(e)(3)  and  (g)(1)),  the  Savings  Bank's  obligations  under  the
Agreement  shall  be  suspended  as of the date of  service,  unless  stayed  by
appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Savings
Bank may in its discretion (i) pay the Employee all or part of the  compensation
withheld while its contract obligations were suspended and (ii) reinstate any of
its obligations which were suspended.

      11. Disability.  If the Employee shall become disabled or incapacitated to
the extent  that he is unable to  perform  his  duties  hereunder,  by reason of
medically determinable physical or mental impairment,  as determined by a doctor
engaged by the Board of  Directors,  Employee  shall  nevertheless  continue  to
receive the compensation and benefits provided under the terms of this Agreement
in accordance with the Savings Bank's disability policy as in effect on the date
he becomes disabled. Such benefits noted herein shall be reduced by any benefits
otherwise  provided to the Employee  during such period under the  provisions of
disability insurance coverage in effect for Savings Bank employees.  Thereafter,
Employee  shall be eligible  to receive  benefits  provided by the Savings  Bank
under the provisions of disability insurance coverage in effect for Savings Bank
employees.  Upon returning to active full-time  employment,  the Employee's full
compensation  as set forth in this Agreement  shall be reinstated as of the date
of commencement of such  activities.  In the event that the Employee  returns to
active employment on other than a full-time basis, then his compensation (as set
forth in Section 2 of this Agreement) shall be reduced in proportion to the time
spent in said employment, or as shall otherwise be agreed to by the parties.

      12.   Change in Control.
            -----------------

      (a) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary,  in the event of
the  involuntary  termination of Employee's  employment  during the Term of this
Agreement following any change in control of the Savings Bank or Parent,  absent
Just Cause, Employee shall

                                        5

<PAGE>



be paid an  amount  equal to the  product  of 2.99  times the  Employee's  "base
amount" as defined in Section  280G(b)(3) of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code") and regulations promulgated  thereunder.  Said sum shall
be paid,  at the option of  Employee,  either in one (1) lump sum within  thirty
(30) days of such  termination  discounted  to the present value of such payment
using as the  discount  rate the "prime  rate" as  published  in the Wall Street
Journal  Eastern  Edition as of the date of such payment minus 100 basis points,
or in periodic  payments over the next 36 months or the  remaining  term of this
Agreement  whichever  is  less,  as  if  Employee's   employment  had  not  been
terminated,  and such  payments  shall be in lieu of any other  future  payments
which the Employee  would be otherwise  entitled to receive  under  Section 9 of
this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the forgoing,  all sums payable hereunder shall
be  reduced  in such  manner and to such  extent so that no such  payments  made
hereunder when  aggregated with all other payments to be made to the Employee by
the Savings Bank or the Parent shall be deemed an "excess parachute  payment" in
accordance  with  Section  280G of the Code and be  subject  to the  excise  tax
provided at Section  4999(a) of the Code. The term "control"  shall refer to the
ownership,  holding  or power to vote more than 25% of the  Parent's  or Savings
Bank's voting  stock,  the control of the election of a majority of the Parent's
or Savings Bank's directors, or the exercise of a controlling influence over the
management or policies of the Parent or Savings Bank by any person or by persons
acting as a group within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934. The term "person" means an individual other than the Employee, or a
corporation,  partnership,  trust, association,  joint venture, pool, syndicate,
sole proprietorship, unincorporated organization or any other form of entity not
specifically listed herein.

      (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
Employee  may  voluntarily  terminate  his  employment  during  the Term of this
Agreement  following  a change in control  of the  Savings  Bank or Parent,  and
Employee shall thereupon be entitled to receive the payment described in Section
12(a) of this  Agreement,  upon the  occurrence,  or  within  ninety  (90)  days
thereafter,  of any of the following events, which have not been consented to in
advance by the  Employee in writing:  (i) if Employee  would be required to move
his personal  residence or perform his principal  executive  functions more than
thirty-five  (35) miles from the Employee's  primary office as of the signing of
this Agreement;  (ii) if in the organizational  structure of the Savings Bank or
Parent,  Employee  would be required to report to a person or persons other than
the Board of the Savings  Bank or Parent;  (iii) if the  Savings  Bank or Parent
should fail to maintain Employee's base compensation in effect as of the date of
the  Change in Control  and the  existing  employee  benefits  plans,  including
material fringe benefit, stock option and retirement plans, except to the extent
that such  reduction  in benefit  programs is part of an overall  adjustment  in
benefits  for  all  employees  of the  Savings  Bank  or  Parent  and  does  not
disproportionately adversely impact the

                                        6

<PAGE>



Employee;  (iv) if Employee would be assigned duties and responsibilities  other
than those  normally  associated  with his position as  referenced at Section 1,
herein;  (v) if  Employee  would not be  elected  or  reelected  to the Board of
Directors  of the  Savings  Bank;  or (vi)  if  Employee's  responsibilities  or
authority have in any way been diminished or reduced.

      13.   Successors and Assigns.
            ----------------------

      (a) This  Agreement  shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon any
corporate or other  successor of the Savings Bank or Parent which shall acquire,
directly or indirectly, by merger, consolidation,  purchase or otherwise, all or
substantially all of the assets or stock of the Savings Bank or Parent.

      (b) Since the  Savings  Bank is  contracting  for the unique and  personal
skills of the  Employee,  the  Employee  shall be  precluded  from  assigning or
delegating his rights or duties  hereunder  without first  obtaining the written
consent of the Savings Bank.

severable and the  invalidity  or  unenforceability  of any provision  shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

      17.  Arbitration.  Any  controversy or claim arising out of or relating to
this  Agreement,  or the breach  thereof,  shall be settled  by  arbitration  in
accordance  with the rules then in effect of the district office of the American
Arbitration  Association ("AAA") nearest to the home office of the Savings Bank,
and  judgment  upon the  award  rendered  may be  entered  in any  court  having
jurisdiction thereof,  except to the extend that the parties may otherwise reach
a mutual settlement of such issue. The Savings Bank shall reimburse Employee for
all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising
from such  dispute,  proceedings  or  actions,  following  the  delivery  of the
decision  of the  arbitrator  finding  in favor of the  Employee.  Further,  the
settlement of the dispute to be approved by the Board of the Savings Bank or the
Parent may  include a provision  for the  reimbursement  by the Savings  Bank or
Parent  to the  Employee  for  all  reasonable  costs  and  expenses,  including
reasonable  attorneys' fees, arising from such dispute,  proceedings or actions,
or the

                                        7

<PAGE>


Board of the Savings Bank or the Parent may authorize such reimbursement of such
reasonable  costs and  expenses  by separate  action  upon a written  action and
determination of the Board following settlement of the dispute.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


General

      The Company was recently  formed,  therefore  its results from  operations
consist  primarily  of  interest  income  from the  investing  of funds from the
proceeds  generated  by the sale of common  stock and  expense  incurred  in the
maintaining  of the investment  portfolio.  The Bank's results of operations are
primarily dependent on its net interest income,  which is the difference between
the interest income earned on its assets,  primarily loans and investments,  and
the interest expense on its liabilities,  primarily deposits and borrowings. Net
interest  income  may  be  affected   significantly   by  general  economic  and
competitive  conditions and policies of regulatory agencies,  particularly those
with  respect to market  interest  rates.  The  results of  operations  are also
influenced by the level of non-interest expenses,  such as employee salaries and
benefits and other income, such as loan-related fees and fees on deposit-related
services.

Asset/Liability Management

      The Bank's net interest  income is sensitive to changes in interest rates,
as the rates paid on interest-bearing  liabilities  generally change faster than
the rates earned on  interest-earning  assets. As a result,  net interest income
will  frequently  decline in periods of rising  interest  rates and  increase in
periods of decreasing interest rates.

      To mitigate the impact of changing  interest rates on net interest income,
the Bank manages interest rate sensitivity and asset/liability  products through
an  asset/liability   management  committee.   The  asset/liability   management
committee  meets as necessary  to determine  the rates of interest for loans and
deposits. Rates on deposits are primarily based on the Bank's need for funds and
on a review of rates  offered  by other  financial  institutions  in the  Bank's
market areas.  Interest rates on loans are primarily based on the interest rates
offered by other  financial  institutions  in the Bank's primary market areas as
well as the Bank's cost of funds.

      In an effort to reduce  interest  rate risk and  protect  itself  from the
negative  effects of rapid or prolonged  changes in interest rates, the Bank has
instituted   certain  asset  and  liability   management   measures,   including
underwriting  long-term  fixed  rate loans that are  saleable  in the  secondary
market,  offering  longer  term  deposit  products  and  diversifying  the  loan
portfolio into shorter term consumer and commercial business loans. In addition,
since the mid-1980s,  the Bank has primarily originated one year, three year and
five year adjustable-rate mortgage loans.

      The Committee  manages the interest rate  sensitivity  of the Bank through
the  determination  and adjustment of  asset/liability  composition  and pricing
strategies. The Committee then monitors the impact of the interest rate risk and
earnings  consequences  of such  strategies  for  consistency  with  the  Bank's
liquidity needs, growth, and capital adequacy.  The Bank's principal strategy is
to reduce the interest rate  sensitivity of interest  earning assets and attempt
to match the  maturities  of  interest  earning  assets  with  interest  bearing
liabilities,  while  allowing  for a  mismatch  in an attempt  to  increase  net
interest income.

Net Portfolio Value

      The Bank computes amounts by which the net present value of cash flow from
assets, liabilities and off balance sheet items ("net portfolio value" or "NPV")
would  change  in the event of a range of  assumed  changes  in market  interest
rates. These  computations  estimate the effect on the Bank's from instantaneous
and  permanent 1% to 4% (100 to 400 basis  points)  increases  and  decreases in
market interest rates. Based upon OTS assumptions,  the following table presents
the Bank's NPV at June 30, 1997.

(1)   Calculated as the estimated NPV divided by present value of total assets.
(2)   Calculated  as the  excess  (deficiency)  of the NPV  ratio  assuming  the
      indicated  change in interest  rates over the estimated NPV ratio assuming
      no change in interest rates.

      These  calculations  indicate that the Bank's net portfolio value could be
adversely  affected  by  increases  in  interest  rates but  could be  favorably
affected by decreases in interest rates.  In addition,  the Bank would be deemed
to have  more  than a normal  level  of  interest  rate  risk  under  applicable
regulatory capital requirements.

      Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical  interest rate changes
are based on numerous assumptions,  including relative levels of market interest
rates,  prepayments  and  deposit  run-offs  and  should  not be relied  upon as
indicative  of  actual  results.  Certain  shortcomings  are  inherent  in  such
computations.  Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturity
or periods  of  repricing  they may react at  different  times and in  different
degrees to changes in the market interest  rates.  The interest rates on certain
types of assets and  liabilities  may  fluctuate in advance of changes in market
interest  rates,  while rates on other types of assets and  liabilities  may lag
behind changes in market interest rates. Certain assets, such as adjustable rate
mortgages, generally have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a
short  term  basis and over the life of the  asset.  In the event of a change in
interest  rates,   prepayments  and  early   withdrawal   levels  could  deviate
significantly  from  those  assumed  in making  calculations  set  forth  above.
Additionally,  an  increased  credit  risk may  result  as the  ability  of many
borrowers to service  their debt may  decrease in the event of an interest  rate
increase.

Average Balance Sheet

      The  following  table  sets  forth  certain  information  relating  to the
Company's  average  balance  sheet and reflects the average  yield on assets and
average cost of  liabilities  for the periods  indicated and the average  yields
earned and rates paid.  Such yields and costs are derived by dividing  income or
expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities,  respectively,  for the
periods  presented.  Average  balances  are  derived  from  month-end  balances.
Management does not believe that the use of month-end  balances instead of daily
average  balances  has  caused  any  material  differences  in  the  information
presented.

Comparison of Financial Condition

      On September 3, 1996,  the Board of Directors of the Bank  approved a plan
of conversion to convert from a federally  chartered  mutual bank to a federally
chartered  stock  savings  bank and  simultaneously  reorganized  into a holding
company form of organization (collectively, the "Conversion"). After approval by
the regulatory  authorities and the Bank's members, the Conversion was completed
on  December  31,  1996 and as a result,  the  holding  company  was formed (the
"Company")  and the Bank became a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of the Company.  In
connection  with the Conversion on December 31, 1996, the Company  completed the
sale of  1,084,450  shares  (the  "Offering")  at $10 per share and  receive net
proceeds of  approximately  $9,449,000.  The Company  transferred  approximately
$4,724,000  of the net  proceeds  to the  Bank  for the  purchase  of all of the
capital stock of the Bank. In addition,  $868,000 was loaned to the ESOP for the
purchase of shares in the Offering.

      The Company's total assets was  $104,563,000 at June 30, 1997, an increase
of  $12,711,000  or 13.8% from  $91,852,000  at June 30,  1996.  The increase in
assets  was  primarily  attributable  to  the  Offering.  Total  cash  and  cash
equivalents  increased  by  $2,776,000  to  $6,792,000  at June  30,  1997  from
$4,016,000 at June 30, 1996.  This increase  includes a portion of the inflow of
cash  associated  with the  subscription  of orders received for the purchase of
Common Stock in the Offering.  Management  maintains a level of cash equivalents
which is desirable for meeting  normal cash flow  requirements  of its customers
for the  funding  of loans and  repayment  of  deposits.  Investment  securities
increased $3,031,000, from $4,868,000 at June 30, 1996 to $7,899,000 at June 30,
1997.  This  increase  consists  predominately  of U.S.  Government  and  Agency
securities  classified as held to maturity,  as all  investment  purchases  made
during this period were  classified as held to maturity.  These  securities have
staggering  maturities  which range from one to five years. Net loans receivable
increased 9.0% or $7,127,000,  from  $78,941,000 at June 30, 1996 to $86,068,000
at June 30, 1997.  The net increase was primarily  attributable  to increases in
non-residential mortgages of $3,155,000,  1-4 family mortgages of $3,146,000 and
$1,595,000 in consumer loans and consumer lines of credit,  and offset  somewhat
by the net sales proceeds of one- to four family  mortgages of $1,375,000.  Such
increases  primarily reflected the economic health of the Bank's market area and
the  competitive  pricing of the Bank's  loan  product.  The funding of the loan
growth was mainly provided by increases in FHLB borrowings of $3,371,000 and the
net sales proceeds of loans of $1,375,000.

      Deposits  decreased  by  $702,000  to  $80,069,000  at June 30,  1997 from
$80,771,000 at June 30, 1996. This decrease primarily represents funds withdrawn
by  depositors  which  were  used to  purchase  stock  in the  Offering  and was
partially offset by the Bank offering a new money market product which generated
$4,600,000 in deposits.  To support business  development,  the Company obtained
additional  funding through advances from the FHLB of $3,371,000 which increased
their  aggregate  borrowings to  $7,747,000.  FHLB  borrowings  have  staggering
maturities which range from one to six years.

      Stockholders'  equity increased $9,925,000 to $16,125,000 at June 30, 1997
compared to $6,200,000 at June 30, 1996. As discussed  previously,  the increase
was primarily  attributed to the Offering and the result of net retained  income
of $548,000 and  recognition  of shares in the  Employee  Stock  Ownership  Plan
amounting to $71,000.  Through June 30, 1997, the Company  initiated the payment
of dividends of $.16 per share, while maintaining  capital ratios well in excess
of regulatory  guidelines.  Future  dividend  policies will be determined by the
Board of  Directors  in light of the  earnings  and  financial  condition of the
Company, including applicable governmental regulations and policies.

Comparison  of the Results of  Operations  for the Years Ended June 30, 1997 and
1996

      Net Income. As a result of the influx of funds related to the Offering and
the corresponding  surge in loan demand,  net income for the year ended June 30,
1997 increased 31.3% to $548,000 from $417,000 for the same period ended 1996.

      Net Interest Income.  The Company's net interest income increased $703,000
or 25.0% to $3,511,000  for the year ended June 30, 1997,  due to an increase of
$900,000 or 13.6% in  interest  income,  which  totaled  $7,510,000  for 1997 as
compared to  $6,610,000  for 1996.  The  increase  in interest  income more than
offset the $197,000 or 5.2% increase in interest expense.

      Interest Income.  The increase in interest income resulted  primarily from
an increase in earnings on loans of $616,000 or 10.0%, interest-bearing deposits
in other  institutions  of  $177,000 or 128.8%,  and  investment  securities  of
$134,000 or 61.9%. These increases, which were due to an increase in the average
principal balances of $7,600,000, $1,586,000 and $2,600,000,  respectively, were
funded by proceeds from the Offering and advances  from FHLB.  In addition,  the
yield on all investments increased from 5.7% for the year ended June 30, 1996 to
6.4% for the same period ended June 30, 1997.  This increase was the result of a
combination of changing the mix of securities by increasing  the  investments in
U.S. Government securities and a slight upturn in rates.

      Interest Expense.  Total interest expense increased $197,000 or 5.2%, from
$3,801,000  for the year ended June 30, 1996 to  $3,998,000  for the same period
ended June 30, 1997.  The increase for fiscal year 1997 was  primarily due to an
increase in the average  volume of  interest-bearing  liabilities of $5,296,000,
from $79,745,000 as of June 30, 1996 to $85,041,000 as of June 30, 1997. Of this
amount,  average FHLB advances  increased from $3,105,000 as of June 30, 1996 to
$7,329,000 as of June 30,1997 to fund an increasing loan environment.

      Provision  for  loan  losses.  The  provision  for loan  losses  decreased
$212,000  or 80.6%,  from  $263,000  as of June 30,  1996 to  $51,000 as of June
30,1997.  In 1996,  management  increased its provision for loan loss due to the
Bank's  significant  increase in automobile loans,  non-residential  real estate
loans, and commercial loans as well as incurring a $145,000  charge-off relating
to one borrower.  It was determined  that the provision for loan loss for fiscal
1997 was adequate due to  management's  continual  evaluation of the adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses which encompasses the overall risk characteristics
of the loan portfolio,  trends in the Bank's delinquent and nonperforming loans,
and the impact of economic  conditions  on  borrowers.  While asset  quality has
slightly  declined during this period,  management  believes that the underlying
collateral  supporting such loans provides  adequate  coverage.  There can be no
assurances,  however,  that future losses will not exceed  estimated  amounts or
that  additional  provisions  for loan  losses  will not be  required  in future
periods.

      Noninterest income. Noninterest income increased by $87,000 or 29.6%, from
$294,000  for the year ended June 30, 1996 to $381,000 for the same period ended
June 30, 1997.  Service charges on deposit accounts  increased $34,000 or 17.6%,
due to the increase in the volume and number of deposit  accounts.  In addition,
during the second half of 1996,  the Bank began a new program to sell fixed rate
mortgage loans which resulted in gains on the sale of loans of $25,000.

      Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense increased $825,000 or 38.5%, from
$2,147,000  for the year ended June 30, 1996 to  $2,972,000  for the same period
ended June 30, 1997.  This increase is largely  attributed to a one time special
assessment  charge of $470,000 in federal insurance  premiums.  On September 30,
1996,   the  President   signed  into  law   legislation   which   included  the
recapitalization  of the  Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund  ("SAIF") of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation by a one

                                       -9-

<PAGE>



time charge to  SAIF-insured  institutions  of 65.7 basis points per one hundred
dollars of insurable deposits.

      Pursuant to this legislation, the Bank will pay, in addition to the normal
deposit  insurance  premium as a member of the SAIF,  an annual  amount equal to
approximately   6.4  basis  points  of  outstanding  SAIF  deposits  toward  the
retirement  of the  Financing  Corporation  Bonds ("Fico  Bonds")  issued in the
1980's to assist in the  recovery of the savings and loan  industry.  Members of
the Bank  Insurance  Fund ("BIF"),  by contrast,  will pay, in addition to their
normal deposit insurance premium,  approximately 1.3 basis points.  Beginning no
later than January 1, 2000, the rate paid to retire the Fico Bonds will be equal
for members of the BIF and the SAIF.  The Act also  provides  for the merging of
the BIF and the  SAIF  by  January  1,  1999  provided  there  are no  financial
institutions  still chartered as savings  associations at that time.  Should the
insurance  funds be merged before  January 1, 2000, the rate paid by all members
of this new fund to retire the Fico Bonds would be equal.

      Compensation and benefits  increased  $142,000 or 16.0%, due to the hiring
of new employees to further  diversify the Bank's operations to meet continually
changing customer demands,  as well as increase in employee stock ownership plan
expenses from the  distribution  of additional  shares.  Occupancy and equipment
expense increased $85,000 or 32.0% primarily due to increases in depreciation on
furniture  and  equipment  relating to the new branch  which  opened in December
1995. Other  noninterest  expense  increased by $112,000 or 27.0% due to general
overall increases in all expenses.

      A great  deal of  information  has  been  disseminated  about  the  global
computer crash that may occur in the year 2000. Many computer  programs that can
only distinguish the final two digits of the year entered (a common  programming
practice in earlier years) are expected to read entries for the year 2000 as the
year 1900 and compute payment,  interest or delinquency  based on the wrong date
or are expected to be unable to compute payment, interest or delinquency.  Rapid
and accurate data  processing  is essential to the  operation of the Bank.  Data
processing is also essential to most other financial institutions and many other
companies.  All of the  material  data  processing  of the  Bank  that  could be
affected  by this  problem is  provided by a third  party  service  bureau.  The
service  bureau of the Bank has advised the Bank that it expects to resolve this
potential problem before the year 2000. However, if the service bureau is unable
to resolve this  potential  problem in time,  the Bank would  likely  experience
significant data processing delays, mistakes or failures. These delays, mistakes
or failures could have a significant  adverse impact on the financial  condition
and results of operation of the Bank.

      Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $45,000 or 16.1%, from $276,000
for the year ended June 30, 1996 to $321,000  for the year ended June 30,  1997,
due to the 25.3%  increase in income before income taxes.  The effective rate on
taxes as of the year ended June 30,  1997 was 36.9%  compared  to 39.8% from the
same period ended June 30, 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The  primary  sources  of funds  are  deposits,  repayment  of  loans  and
mortgage-backed  securities,  maturities  of  investments  and  interest-bearing
deposits,  funds  provided  from  operations  and  advances  from  the  FHLB  of
Pittsburgh.  While scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed  securities
and  maturities  of  investment  securities  are  predictable  sources of funds,
deposit flows and loan  prepayments are greatly  influenced by the general level
of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank use its sources
of  funds  to fund  existing  and  future  loan  commitments,  to fund  maturing
certificates  of deposit  and  demand  deposit  withdrawals,  to invest in other
interest-earning assets, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating expenses.


                                      -10-

<PAGE>



      Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended June 30, 1997
totalled  $2,109,000  as compared to net cash used for  operating  activities of
$643,000  for the year ended June 30,  1996.  The  increase  of  $2,752,000  was
primarily  attributable to proceeds from the sale of loans of $4,211,000  offset
by loans originated for sale of $2,806,000.

      Net cash used in  investing  activities  for the year ended June 30,  1997
totalled  $11,375,000 an increase of $5,274,000 from June 30, 1996. The increase
was primarily  attributable to net loan originations of $8,578,000 and purchases
of investment  securities held to maturity of $5,294,000 offset by proceeds from
maturities and repayments of these securities of $2,250,000.

      Net cash provided by financing  activities for 1997 totalled  $12,042,000.
This was the  result  of  $9,449,000  million  in net  proceeds  from the  stock
offering,  a net increase of $3,405,000 in FHLB advances offset by a decrease in
deposits of $702,000.

      Liquidity  may be  adversely  affected  by  unexpected  deposit  outflows,
excessive interest rates paid by competitors,  adverse publicity relating to the
savings and loan  industry  and  similar  matters.  Further,  the  disparity  in
insurance  premiums as described  herein could result in the Savings Bank losing
deposits  to the Bank  Insurance  Fund  ("BIF")  members who have lower costs of
funds and  therefore  are able to pay  higher  rates of  interest  on  deposits.
Management   monitors  projected   liquidity  needs  and  determines  the  level
desirable,   based  in  part  on  the  Bank's  commitments  to  make  loans  and
management's assessment of the Bank's ability to generate funds.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

      The consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes presented
elsewhere in this  document,  have been  prepared in accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles,  which  require the  measurement  of financial
position  and  operating   results  in  terms  of  historical   dollars  without
considering the change in the relative  purchasing  power of money over time and
due to inflation.  The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of
our  operations.  As a  result,  interest  rates  have a  greater  impact on our
performance  than do the effects of general levels of inflation.  Interest rates
do not  necessarily  move in the same  direction  or to the same  extent  as the
prices of goods and services.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      In June 1996, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board ("FASB")  issued
Statement No. 125,  "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial  Assets
and Extinguishment of Liabilities." The Statement provides consistent  standards
for  distinguishing  transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers
that are secured borrowings based on a  control-oriented  "financial-components"
approach.  Under this approach,  after a transfer of financial assets, an entity
recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and liabilities it has
incurred,  derecognizes  financial  assets when control has been surrendered and
derecognizes liabilities when extinguished.  The provisions of Statement No. 125
are effective for transactions  occurring after December 31, 1996,  except those
provisions  relating to repurchase  agreements,  securities  lending,  and other
similar transactions and pledged collateral, which have been delayed until after
December  31, 1997 by Statement  No. 127,  "Deferral  of the  Effective  Date of
Certain Provisions of FASB Statement No. 125, an amendment of FASB Statement No.
125." The adoption of these statements is not expected to have a material impact
on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

      In  February,  1997,  the FASB issued  Statement  No. 128,  "Earnings  Per
Share,"  effective  for  financial  statements  issued for periods  ending after
December 15, 1997. The new standard specifies the

                                      -11-

<PAGE>



computation,  presentation,  and disclosure  requirements for earnings per share
for entities with publicly  held common stock.  The Company does not  anticipate
adoption to have a material impact on  presentation  and disclosure for earnings
per share.

      In July 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 130, "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income."  Statement  No. 130 is  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after
December 15, 1997.  This  statement  establishes  standards  for  reporting  and
presentation  of  comprehensive  income and its components  (revenue,  expenses,
gains,  and losses) in a full set of general purpose  financial  statements.  It
requires  that all items that are  required to be  recognized  under  accounting
standards  as  components  of  comprehensive  income be  reported in a financial
statement  that is  presented  with  the  same  prominence  as  other  financial
statements.  Statement  No. 130 requires that  companies  (i) classify  items of
other  comprehensive  income by their nature in a financial  statement  and (ii)
display the accumulated  balance of other  comprehensive  income separately from
retained  earnings and additional  paid-in  capital in the equity section of the
statement of financial  condition.  Reclassification of financial statements for
earlier periods provided for comprehensive purpose is required.

Board of Directors and Shareholders
Advance Financial Bancorp

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Advance Financial
Bancorp  and  subsidiary  as  of  June  30,  1997  and  1996,  and  the  related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each
of the years then ended.  These financial  statements are the  responsibility of
the Company's  management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated  financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material  respects,  the financial  position of Advance Financial
Bancorp and  subsidiary  as of June 30, 1997 and 1996,  and the results of their
operations  and their cash flows for each of the years then ended in  conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in the notes to the consolidated  financial  statements,  effective
July 1, 1995, the Company changed its method of accounting for the impairment of
loans and the related allowance for loan losses.

                            ADVANCE FINANCIAL BANCORP
                                 AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  JUNE 30, 1997


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Advance Financial  Bancorp (the "Company") was organized in September,  1996
    as a State of Delaware chartered  corporation.  The Company acquired 100% of
    the common stock of Advance Financial Savings Bank, f.s.b. (the "Bank") upon
    the  Bank's  conversion  from  a   federally-chartered   mutual  bank  to  a
    federally-chartered  stock  savings bank in December,  1996.  The  operating
    results of the Company depend  primarily  upon the operating  results of the
    Bank.

    The  Bank  and its  wholly-owned  service  corporation  subsidiary,  Advance
    Financial  Service  Corporation of West Virginia,  are located in Wellsburg,
    West  Virginia,  with branch  facilities  in  Follansbee,  West Virginia and
    future expansion into Wintersville, Ohio. The Company's principal sources of
    revenue  emanate from its portfolio of residential  real estate,  commercial
    and consumer loans, as well as, interest earnings on investment  securities,
    interest-bearing  deposits with other financial institutions,  and a variety
    of deposit  services  provided to its customers  through two locations.  The
    Bank is  subject  to  regulation  and  supervision  by the  Office of Thrift
    Supervision and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

    The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of the Company
    and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary  Advance  Financial  Savings Bank, and its
    wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Advance  Financial  Service  Corporation  of West
    Virginia.  All material  intercompany  balances and  transactions  have been
    eliminated in  consolidation.  The  Company's  fiscal year end for financial
    reporting is June 30. For regulatory and income tax reporting purposes,  the
    Company reports on a December 31 calendar year basis.

    The consolidated  financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
    generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  In preparing the  consolidated
    financial   statements,   management  is  required  to  make  estimates  and
    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of
    the date of the balance  sheet and  revenues  and  expenses  for the period.
    Actual results could differ  significantly  from those estimates.  The major
    accounting policies and practices are summarized below.

    Investment Securities Including Mortgage-Backed Securities
    ----------------------------------------------------------

    Debt  securities,  including  mortgage-backed  securities  acquired with the
    intent and ability to hold to maturity  are stated at cost and  adjusted for
    amortization of premium and accretion of discount,  which are computed using
    a level yield method and are recognized as  adjustments of interest  income.
    Certain other equity  securities have been classified as available for sale.
    Unrealized  holding  gains and losses on available for sale  securities  are
    reported as a separate  component of retained  earnings,  net of tax,  until
    realized.  Realized  securities  gains and  losses  are  computed  using the
    specific   identification  method.  Interest  and  dividends  on  investment
    securities are recognized as income when earned.

    Common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (the "FHLB") represents ownership
    in an institution  which is wholly-owned  by other  financial  institutions.
    This equity security is accounted for at cost and reported separately on the
    accompanying balance sheet.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Loans Held for Sale
    -------------------

    Mortgage  loans  originated  and held for sale in the  secondary  market are
    carried  at the lower of cost or market  value  determined  on an  aggregate
    basis. Net unrealized losses are recognized in a valuation allowance through
    charges to  income.  Gains and losses on the sale of loans held for sale are
    determined using the specific identification method. At June 30, 1997, there
    were no loans held for sale.  At June 30,  1996,  the cost of loans held for
    sale was equal to market value.

    Loans
    -----

    Loans are stated at unpaid principal  balances,  less loans in process,  net
    deferred loan fees, and the allowance for loan losses.

    Loan origination and commitment fees, as well as, certain direct origination
    costs are deferred and amortized as a yield  adjustment over the contractual
    life of the  related  loans  using  the  interest  method.  Amortization  of
    deferred  loan fees is  discontinued  when a loan is  placed  on  nonaccrual
    status.

    Loans are generally  placed on nonaccrual  status when principal or interest
    is  delinquent  for 90  days  or more  except  for  those  loans  which,  in
    management's  judgment,  are adequately  secured and for which collection is
    probable.  Any unpaid interest previously accrued on those loans is reversed
    from income,  and  thereafter,  interest is recognized only to the extent of
    payments received.

    Allowance for Loan Losses
    -------------------------

    Effective  January 1, 1995,  the  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial
    Accounting  Standards No. 114,  "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
    Loan," as amended by Statement  No. 118.  Under this  Standard,  the Company
    estimates  credit  losses on impaired  loans  based on the present  value of
    expected cash flows or fair value of the  underlying  collateral if the loan
    repayment is expected to come from the sale or operation of such collateral.
    Prior to 1995, the credit losses related to these loans were estimated based
    on undiscounted  cash flows or the fair value of the underlying  collateral.
    Statement  118 amends  Statement  114 to permit a creditor  to use  existing
    methods for recognizing  interest  income on impaired loans  eliminating the
    income  recognition  provisions  of  Statement  114.  The  adoption of these
    statements  did  not  have a  material  effect  on the  Company's  financial
    position or results of operations.

    Impaired loans are commercial and commercial  real estate loans for which it
    is  probable  that the  Company  will not be able to collect all amounts due
    according  to the  contractual  terms of the  loan  agreement.  The  Company
    individually  evaluates  such loans for  impairment  and does not  aggregate
    loans by major risk  classifications.  The definition of "impaired loans" is
    not the same as the  definition  of  "nonaccrual  loans,"  although  the two
    categories  overlap.  The Company  may choose to place a loan on  nonaccrual
    status due to payment  delinquency  or uncertain  collectibility,  while not
    classifying  the  loan  as  impaired  if the  loan  is not a  commercial  or
    commercial real estate loan. Factors considered by management in determining
    impairment  include  payment  status  and  collateral  value.  The amount of
    impairment for these types of impaired loans is determined by the difference
    between the present  value of the expected  cash flows  related to the loan,
    using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or, as a practical
    expedient in the case of  collateralized  loans, the difference  between the
    fair value of the  collateral  and the  recorded  amount of the loans.  When
    foreclosure  is probable,  impairment is measured based on the fair value of
    the collateral.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)
    -------------------------------------

    Mortgage loans on one-to-four  family  properties and all consumer loans are
    large  groups  of  smaller  balance   homogeneous  loans  and  are  measured
    collectively.  Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are
    defined  as 90 days or  less,  generally  are not  classified  as  impaired.
    Management  determines the  significance of payment delays on a case-by-case
    basis,  taking into  consideration all of the circumstances  surrounding the
    loan and the  borrower,  including the length of the delay,  the  borrower's
    prior  payment  record,  and the  amount of  shortfall  in  relation  to the
    principal and interest owed.

    The  allowance  for loan  losses  represents  the  amount  which  management
    estimates is adequate to provide for potential losses in its loan portfolio.
    The allowance method is used in providing for loan losses. Accordingly,  all
    loan losses are charged to the  allowance and all  recoveries  are credit to
    it. The  allowance  for loan losses is  established  through a provision for
    loan losses charged to operations. The provision for loan losses is based on
    management's periodic evaluation of individual loans, economic factors, past
    loan loss experience, changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio
    and other relevant  factors.  The estimates used in determining the adequacy
    of the allowance for loan losses, including the amounts and timing of future
    cash flows  expected on impaired  loans,  are  particularly  susceptible  to
    change in the near term.

    Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans
    -------------------------------------------

    Real estate acquired in settlement of loans is classified  separately on the
    balance sheet at the lower of the recorded investment in the property or its
    fair value minus estimated costs of sale. Prior to foreclosure, the value of
    the  underlying  collateral is written down by a charge to the allowance for
    loan losses,  if necessary.  Any subsequent  write-downs are charged against
    operating  expenses.  Operating expenses of such properties,  net of related
    income and losses on their disposition are included in other expenses.

    Premises and Equipment
    ----------------------

    Land is carried at cost;  buildings and  equipment are stated at cost,  less
    accumulated  depreciation.   The  provision  for  depreciation  is  computed
    primarily by the straight-line  method based upon the estimated useful lives
    of the  assets  which  range  from  five to forty  years.  Expenditures  for
    maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred.
    Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.

    Income Taxes
    ------------

    Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are  reflected  at  currently  enacted
    income tax rates  applicable  to the period in which the deferred tax assets
    or  liabilities  are  expected to be realized or settled.  As changes in tax
    laws or rates are enacted,  deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted
    through the  provision  for income  taxes.  Deferred  income tax expenses or
    benefits  are based on the changes in the  deferred  tax asset or  liability
    from period to period.

    Earnings Per Share
    ------------------

    On December 31, 1996, the Company issued  1,084,450  shares of common stock.
    Earnings  per share data has been  determined  by dividing  net income since
    December  31,  1996 of  $492,662 by the  weighted  average  number of shares
    issued and  outstanding  since the original issue date. As discussed in Note
    14, the  Company  accounts  for the 86,756  shares  acquired  by the ESOP in
    accordance  with Statement of Position 93-6;  shares  controlled by the ESOP
    are not  considered in the weighted  average  shares  outstanding  until the
    shares are committed for allocation to employee  accounts.  The proforma net
    income per share for 1997 is $.55,  assuming the shares had been outstanding
    for the entire year.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Reclassification
    ----------------

    Certain amounts in prior years' consolidated  financial statements have been
    reclassified   to  conform  to  the   current   year   presentation.   These
    reclassification had no effect on net income.

    Cash Flow Information
    ---------------------

    The Company has defined cash and cash  equivalents as cash on hand,  amounts
    due from depository  institutions,  and overnight  deposits with the Federal
    Home Loan Bank.

    Cash payments for interest for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
    were $3,987,639 and $3,801,247, respectively. Cash payments for income taxes
    for the  fiscal  years  ended  June  30,  1997 and 1996  were  $316,279  and
    $241,884, respectively.

    Non  cash  investing  activity  included  mortgages  originated  and  office
    properties  created from sales and  transfers of real estate owned  totaling
    $172,110 and real estate acquired in settlement of loans of $130,543 for the
    fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.  There were no non cash  activities for the
    fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.

    Pending Accounting Pronouncement
    --------------------------------

    In June 1996,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
    Statement  No. 125,  "Accounting  for  Transfers  and Servicing of Financial
    Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities." The Statement provides consistent
    standards for  distinguishing  transfers of financial  assets that are sales
    from  transfers  that are  secured  borrowings  based on a  control-oriented
    "financial-components"  approach.  Under this approach,  after a transfer of
    financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it
    controls and liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when
    control has been surrendered and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished.
    The provisions of Statement No. 125 are effective for transactions occurring
    after  December 31, 1996,  except those  provisions  relating to  repurchase
    agreements,  securities lending,  and other similar transactions and pledged
    collateral,  which  have been  delayed  until  after  December  31,  1997 by
    Statement No. 127,  "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of
    FASB  Statement  No. 125,  an  amendment  of FASB  Statement  No.  125." The
    adoption of these  statements  is not expected to have a material  impact on
    the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

    In February,  1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share,"
    effective for financial  statements issued for periods ending after December
    15, 1997.  The new standard  specifies the  computation,  presentation,  and
    disclosure  requirements  for earnings per share for entities  with publicly
    held  common  stock.  The  Company  does not  anticipate  adoption to have a
    material impact on presentation and disclosure for earnings per share.

    In July 1997, the FASB issued  Statement No. 130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
    Income."  Statement  No. 130 is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after
    December 15, 1997.  This statement  establishes  standards for reporting and
    presentation of comprehensive income and its components (revenue,  expenses,
    gains, and losses) in a full set of general purpose financial statements. It
    requires that all items that are required to be recognized  under accounting
    standards as components of  comprehensive  income be reported in a financial
    statement  that is presented  with the same  prominence  as other  financial
    statements.  Statement No. 130 requires that companies (i) classify items of
    other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and (ii)
    display the accumulated  balance of other  comprehensive  income  separately
    from retained earnings and additional  paid-in capital in the equity section
    of the  statement  of  financial  condition.  Reclassification  of financial
    statements  for  earlier  periods  provided  for  comprehensive  purpose  is
    required.

    Mortgage-backed securities provide for periodic,  generally monthly payments
    of principal and interest and have contractual  maturities  ranging from one
    to  twenty-five  years.  However,  due to  expected  repayment  terms  being
    significantly  less  than the  underlying  mortgage  loan  pool  contractual
    maturities,  the estimated lives of these  securities could be significantly
    shorter.

    There were no  mortgage  backed  securities  sold during the two year period
    ended June 30, 1997.

    these loans are on  substantially  the same terms and conditions as loans to
    other individuals and businesses of comparable  creditworthiness.  A summary
    of  loan  activity  for  those  directors,  executive  officers,  and  their

    The Company's loan portfolio is predominantly  made up of one to four family
    unit  first  mortgage  loans in the  Brooke  and  Hancock  counties  of West
    Virginia and Jefferson  County,  Ohio. These loans are typically  secured by
    first lien  positions  on the  respective  real  estate  properties  and are
    subject  to the  Company's  loan  underwriting  policies.  In  general,  the
    Company's  loan  portfolio  performance is dependent upon the local economic
    conditions.

    On August 20, 1996,  the Small  Business Job  Protection Act (the "Act") was
    signed into law. The Act  eliminated  the  percentage of taxable  income bad
    debt  deduction  for  thrift  institutions  for tax  years  beginning  after
    December 31, 1995. The Act provides that bad debt reserves accumulated prior
    to 1988 be exempt from recapture.  Bad debt reserves  accumulated after 1987
    are  subject  to  recapture.  The  recapture  tax will be paid in six  equal
    installments  beginning  with the 1998 tax year.  At December 31, 1995,  the
    Bank had $324,005 in bad debt  reserves in excess of the base year.  Subject
    to prevailing  corporate tax rates, the Bank owes $110,162 in federal income
    taxes which is reflected as a deferred tax liability.

    The  reconciliation  between the actual  provision  for income taxes and the
    amount of income taxes which would have been provided at statutory rates for
    the years ended June 30 is as follows:

12. REGULATORY CAPITAL

    The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements  administered
    by the federal banking agencies. The Office of Thrift Supervision sets forth
    the capital  standards  applicable  to all thrifts.  Failure to meet minimum
    capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional
    discretionary  actions by the regulators  that, if undertaken,  could have a
    direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements.  Capital adequacy
    guidelines involve quantitative  measures of the Bank's assets,  liabilities
    and  certain   off-balance   sheet  items  as  calculated  under  regulatory
    accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also
    subject to qualitative  judgments by the regulators about  components,  risk
    weightings and other factors.

12. REGULATORY CAPITAL (Continued)

    Quantitative  measures  established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
    require the Bank to maintain  minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I
    capital (as defined in the  regulations)  to  risk-weighted  assets,  and of
    tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted assets
    (as defined). Management believes as of June 30,1997 that the Bank meets all
    capital adequacy requirement to which they are subject.

    The most recent  notification from the Bank's primary regulator  categorized
    the Bank as "well  capitalized"  under the  regulatory  framework for prompt
    corrective  action.  To be categorized as "well  capitalized"  the Bank must
    maintain minimum tangible,  core, and risk-based ratios.  There have been no
    conditions or events since that notification  that management  believes have
    changed the Bank's category.

    The following table reconciles capital under generally  accepted  accounting
    principles to regulatory capital:

12. REGULATORY CAPITAL (Continued)

    Prior to the enactment of The Small Business Job Protection Act discussed in
    Note 11, the Bank accumulated  approximately $1,004,932 of retained earnings
    at December 31, 1996, which amount  represents  allocations of income to bad
    debt  deductions  for tax purposes  only.  Since this amount  represents the
    accumulated bad debt reserves prior to 1988, no provision for federal income
    tax has been made for such  amount.  If any  portion of this  amount is used
    other than to absorb loan losses (which is not anticipated), the amount will
    be subject to federal income tax at the current corporate rate.


13. RETIREMENT PLAN

    The Bank has a profit-sharing plan with a 401(k) feature.  The 401(k) allows
    employees  to  make  contributions  to the  plan up to 12% of  their  annual
    compensation.   The  Bank  will  match  50%  of  the   employees   voluntary
    contributions up to 3% of the employee's  compensation.  Additional employer
    contributions are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The plan
    covers  substantially  all employees with more than one year's service.  The
    Bank's  contributions  for the  benefit of  covered  employees  amounted  to
    $20,111   and   $56,190  for  the  years  ended  June  30,  1997  and  1996,
    respectively.


14. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN ("ESOP")

    During  the year  ended  June 30,  1997,  the Bank  adopted  an ESOP for the
    benefit  of  officers  and  employees  who  have  met  certain   eligibility
    requirements  related  to age and  length  of  service.  An ESOP  trust  was
    created, and acquired 86,756 shares of common stock in the Company's initial
    public offering,  using proceeds of a loan obtained from the Company,  which
    bears  interest at the Wall Street Journal prime rate,  adjusted  quarterly.
    The loan,  which is  secured  by the  shares of stock  purchased,  calls for
    quarterly  interest over a ten year period and annual principle  payments of
    $86,756.

    The Bank makes  quarterly  contributions  to the trust to allow the trust to
    make the required  loan  payments to the Company.  Shares are released  from
    collateral  based upon the proportion of annual  principle  payments made on
    the loan each year and  allocated  to  qualified  employees.  As shares  are
    released from collateral,  the Bank reports  compensation expense based upon
    the amounts  contributed  or committed to be  contributed  each year and the
    shares become  outstanding  for earnings per share  computations.  Dividends
    paid on  allocated  ESOP  shares are  recorded  as a  reduction  in retained
    earnings.  Dividends  paid on  unallocated  shares are added to  participant
    accounts and reported as compensation. Compensation expense for the ESOP was
    $85,204 for the year ended June 30, 1997.

    The following table represents the components of the ESOP shares at June 30,
1997:

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

    Loan Commitments
    ----------------

    The Company 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.
    These instruments  involve,  to varying degrees,  elements of credit risk in
    excess of the amount recognized in the statement of financial condition. The
    contract amounts of these instruments  reflect the extent of involvement the
    Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

    The Company's  exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
    other party to the financial  instrument for commitments to extend credit is
    represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses
    the same credit policies in making  commitments and conditional  obligations
    as it does for  on-balance-sheet  instruments.  No losses are anticipated by
    management as a result of these commitments.

    The  following  represents  financial  instruments  whose  contract  amounts
    represent credit risk at June 30, 1997 and 1996:

</TABLE>

    The  range of  interest  rates  on  fixed  rate  residential  mortgage  loan
    commitments was 8.0% to 9.25% at June 30, 1997.

    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.
    Commitments  generally  expire  within  30 days or  have  other  termination
    clauses and may require  payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are
    expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do
    not necessarily  represent future cash  requirements.  The Company evaluates
    each  customer's  creditworthiness  on a case-by-case  basis.  The amount of
    collateral  obtained,  if deemed  necessary by the Company upon extension of
    credit,  is based on  management's  credit  evaluation of the counter party.
    Collateral  held  consists   primarily  of   single-family   residences  and

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued)

    Lease Commitments (Continued)
    -----------------------------

    The  Company  entered  into a forty  year land  lease  for their  Follansbee
    branch, commencing January 1, 1996 and a 10 year land lease for their future
    Wintersville,  Ohio branch,  commencing  March 1, 1997.  The Company has two
    five year renewal option periods under both of these leases.

    Litigation
    ----------

    The  Company is  involved  in  litigation  arising  in the normal  course of
    business.  Management believes that liabilities,  if any, arising from these
    proceedings  will not have a  material  adverse  effect on the  consolidated
    financial position, operating results, or liquidity.

16. CONVERSION AND REORGANIZATION

    In  September  1996,  the Board of Directors of the Bank adopted the Plan of
    Conversion  pursuant to which the Bank  proposed to convert from a federally
    chartered  mutual savings bank to a federally  chartered  stock savings bank
    and concurrently formed a Bank Holding Company.

    As part of the conversion  process,  the Company was organized in September,
    1996 at the  direction of the Board of Directors of the Bank for the purpose
    of  acquiring  all of the  capital  stock  to be  issued  by the Bank in the
    Conversion.  The  Company  became  a bank  holding  company  with  its  only
    significant  assets being all of the outstanding  capital stock of the Bank,
    which was  acquired on December  31, 1996 by  exchanging  $4,724,287  of the
    proceeds  received in the public offering for all of the common stock of the
    Bank, and a percentage of the conversion  proceeds permitted to be retained.
    From the proceeds of the Conversion, $108,445 was allocated to common stock,
    and $10,207,689, which is net of $528,366 conversion costs, was allocated to
    additional paid-in capital.

    In accordance with  regulations,  at the time that the Bank converted from a
    mutual savings bank to a stock savings bank, a portion of retained  earnings
    was  restricted by  establishing  a  liquidation  account.  The  liquidation
    account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible  account  holders who
    continue to maintain  their accounts at the Bank after the  Conversion.  The
    liquidation  account  will be reduced  annually to the extent that  eligible
    account holders have reduced their qualifying deposits. Subsequent increases
    will not restore an eligible  account  holder's  interest in the liquidation
    account.  In the event of a complete  liquidation  of the Bank each  account
    holder  will be  entitled  to receive a  distribution  from the  liquidation
    account  in an  amount  proportionate  to the  current  adjusted  qualifying
    balances for accounts then held.

17. SAVINGS ASSOCIATION INSURANCE FUND RECAPITALIZATION

    On September  30, 1996,  the  President  signed into law  legislation  which
    included,  among other things,  recapitalization  of the Savings Association
    Insurance  Fund  ("SAIF")  of  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation
    ("FDIC") by a one time  charge to  SAIF-insured  institutions  of 65.7 basis
    points per one hundred  dollars of insurable  deposits.  The gross effect to
    the Bank  amounted  to  $469,908,  which is  reflected  in the  consolidated
    financial statement of income for the year ended June 30, 1997.

                                       ============ ============  ===========  ===========
</TABLE>

    Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of ownership interest in
    an entity,  or a contract which creates an obligation or right to receive or
    deliver  cash or another  financial  instrument  from/to a second  entity on
    potentially favorable or unfavorable terms.

    Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be
    exchanged in a current  transaction  between willing parties other than in a
    forced or  liquidation  sale.  If a quoted  market price is available  for a
    financial  instrument,  the estimated  fair value would be calculated  based
    upon the market price per trading unit of the instrument.

    If no  readily  available  market  exists,  the  fair  value  estimates  for
    financial  instruments should be based upon management's  judgment regarding
    current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future
    estimated  losses,  and other factors as determined  through  various option
    pricing formulas or simulation modeling. As many of these assumptions result
    from judgments made by management  based upon estimates which are inherently
    uncertain,  the resulting estimated fair values may not be indicative of the
    amount  realizable  in the sale of a  particular  financial  instrument.  In
    addition,  changes in  assumptions  on which the  estimated  fair values are
    based may have a significant impact on the resulting estimated fair values.

    As certain assets such as deferred tax assets and premises and equipment are
    not considered financial instruments,  the estimated fair value of financial
    instruments would not represent the full value of the Company.

                                      -34-

18. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

    The Company employed  simulation  modeling in determining the estimated fair
    value of  financial  instruments  for which  quoted  market  prices were not
    available based upon the following assumptions:

    Cash  and Due from Banks, Interest-bearing Deposits with Other Institutions,
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Federal  Home  Loan Bank Stock,  Accrued  Interest  Receivable,  and Accrued
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Interest Payable
    ----------------

    The fair value is equal to the current carrying value.

    Investment Securities, Mortgage-backed Securities, and Loans Held for Sale
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The fair value of  securities  held to  maturity  and loans held for sale is
    equal to the available  quoted  market  price.  If no quoted market price is
    available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market price for similar
    securities.

    The fair  value of  securities  available  for sale is equal to the  current
    carrying value.

    Loans, Deposits, and Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank
    ---------------------------------------------------------

    The fair value of loans,  certificates of deposit, and advances from Federal
    Home Loan Bank is  estimated  by  discounting  the future cash flows using a
    simulation model which estimates  future cash flows and constructs  discount
    rates  that  consider   reinvestment   opportunities,   operating  expenses,
    non-interest income,  credit quality, and prepayment risk. Demand,  savings,
    and money-market deposit accounts are valued at the amount payable on demand
    as of the year end.

    Commitments to Extend Credit
    ----------------------------

    The  financial  instruments  are generally not subject to sale and estimated
    fair values are not readily available.  The contractual  amounts of unfunded
    commitments and letters of credit are presented previously in this report.
