                       732,198 Shares of Common Stock
                              ($.01 par value)

     Access Anytime Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), is 
hereby offering (the "Subscription Offering") up to 732,198 shares of its 
Common Stock, $.01 par value ("Common Stock"), to holders of record of its 
Common Stock (the "Shareholders") at the close of business on ________, 1996 
(the "Record Date"), pursuant to subscription rights, (the "Subscription 
Rights").  The subscription price is ________ per share (the "Subscription 
Price").  Holders of Subscription Rights (collectively, the "Rights Holders") 
will be able to exercise their Subscription Rights until 5:00 p.m., New York 
time, on ____________,1996 (such date, as it may be extended by the Company 
to a date not later than ___________, 1996, being the "Expiration Date").  
See "The Subscription Offering." The Subscription Rights are 
non-transferable, except to the Standby Purchasers (as defined herein) (See 
"Standby Purchase Agreements"). After the Expiration Date, the Subscription 
Rights will no longer be exercisable to purchase shares of Common Stock, 
except by the Standby Purchasers.

     For each one share of Common Stock held of record as of the close of 
business on the Record Date, a Shareholder will receive one Subscription 
Right.  No fractional Subscription Rights will be issued by the Company.  The 
number of Subscription Rights distributed by the Company to each Shareholder 
will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.  Each Rights Holder will 
have the right to purchase one share of Common Stock for each Subscription 
Right.  Rights Holders are entitled to subscribe for all, or any portion of, 
the shares of Common Stock underlying their Subscription Rights.  The Company 
expects to enter into Standby Purchase Agreements, pursuant to which Standby 
Purchasers will severally agree to purchase from the Company, at the 
Subscription Price, 100,000 shares, if available after the exercise of the 
Subscription Rights.  See "Standby Purchase Agreements."  A  minimum amount 
of proceeds of $1,500,000, including purchase by Standby Purchasers, is 
required for the Company to consummate the Subscription Offering.  The 
Company intends to offer, by means of this Prospectus, shares remaining, 
after the Subscription Offering and sales to Standby Purchasers, to other 
investors at the Subscription Price.  Such investors may also include 
existing shareholders.

     The Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market under the 
symbol "AABC" and, on ___________,1996, the last sale price of the Common 
Stock was $______.  The Common Stock of First Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the 
"Bank"), the Company's wholly owned subsidiary and predecessor registrant, 
was traded on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market under the symbol "FSBC" until 
October 21, 1996, at which time the Company's Common Stock was listed and 
began trading.  See "Market Price And Dividends On The Common Stock."

          SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND OPERATING DATA

The Company became the unitary thrift holding company for the Bank as a 
result of the consummation of an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and 
related Plan of Merger on October 21, 1996 (the "Merger).  The Company did 
not have any material assets prior to the Merger.  Following the Merger, the 
Company's consolidated balance statement and income statement are not 
materially different from the Bank's statement of financial condition and 
statement of operations. The Company is the successor registrant to the Bank 
under the Securities Act of 1933.  The following table sets forth selected 
consolidated historical financial and operating data for the Bank as of and 
for each of the five fiscal years ended December 31, 1995 and has been 
derived from and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated 
financial statements of the Bank and  the unaudited consolidated interim 
financial and operating data as of September 30, 1996 and for each of the 
nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1996.  The following summary 
financial information is qualified in its entirety by and should be read in 
conjunction with the detailed information and financial statements of the 
Bank, including the notes thereto, which interim information is included in 
this Prospectus, and which annual information as of December 31, 1995 and 
1994 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 
accompany this Prospectus and are incorporated herein by reference.  In the 
opinion of management of the Bank, all adjustments, consisting of normal 
recurring accruals, considered necessary for fair presentation have been 
included in the unaudited interim data.  The financial information for the 
interim periods presented is not necessarily indicative of the results of 
operations which may be expected as of and for any other interim period or 
year as a whole.

                                RISK FACTORS

With respect to the shares of Common Stock to be issued as described in this 
Prospectus, investors should carefully consider the following risk factors:

   1.          DIVIDEND HISTORY AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS.  The Company 
cannot predict if or when it will pay dividends on the Common Stock in the 
future.  In addition, if the Company were to issue any capital stock having a 
preference as to dividends over the Common Stock, which the Company's 
Certificate of Incorporation allows, the Common Stock may be subordinated as 
to the payment of dividends to such other capital stock. The Bank last paid a 
stock dividend in 1989 and a cash dividend in 1988.  The Company's Board of 
Directors does not currently intend to declare any cash dividends at any time 
in the foreseeable future. The Company's ability to pay dividends to its 
stockholders depends primarily upon the Bank's ability to pay dividends on 
the Bank's common stock to the Company.  Dividends paid by the Bank and the 
Company are subject to restrictions imposed by certain federal laws.  In 
addition, the Bank has entered into a Supervisory Agreement with the OTS 
effective as of June 17, 1996, which agreement requires, among other things, 
that the Bank increase its capital.  As a result, the Bank is unlikely to pay 
a dividend for the foreseeable future.

   2.          MARKETABILITY OF COMMON STOCK.  The Common Stock has been 
listed on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market in the same manner as the Bank's common 
stock was listed prior to October 21, 1996.  The Common Stock has been 
registered under the provisions of the Exchange Act.  It is expected that 
Common Stock will be at least as liquid as the Bank's common stock. However, 
there can be no assurance that an active and liquid trading market for the 
Common Stock will develop, or if developed, will be maintained.

   3.          REGULATION AND SUPERVISION.  Unitary thrift holding companies 
and savings banks operate in a highly regulated environment and are subject 
to extensive supervision and examination by several federal and state 
regulatory agencies.  The Company is subject to the federal Home Owners Loan 
Act, as amended ("HOLA"), and to regulation and supervision by the OTS.  As a 
federal savings bank, the Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by 
the OTS and, as a result of the insurance of its deposits, by the FDIC. In 
this regard, the OTS issued a Prompt Corrective Action Directive to the Bank 
in 1993, which was amended in 1994, and the Bank and OTS entered into a 
Supervisory Agreement effective as of June 17, 1996.  Although the various 
laws and regulations which apply to the Company and the Bank are intended to 
ensure safe and sound banking practices, they are primarily intended to 
benefit depositors and the federal deposit insurance fund, and not the 
stockholders of the Company.  The Company and the Bank are subject to changes 
in federal and state law, as well as changes in regulations and governmental 
policies, income tax laws and accounting principles.  The effects of any 
potential changes cannot be predicted but could adversely affect the business 
and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries in the future.  See 
"Recent Developments" for a discussion of the recent legislation affecting 
the thrift industry and impacts on the Company and the Bank.

   4.          NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS.  The Certificate of Incorporation does 
not provide holders of Common Stock with a preemptive right to subscribe for 
additional shares of the securities of the Company upon additional issuance 
thereof.  Thus, upon the issuance by the Company of any additional shares of 
Common Stock or any securities of the Company with conversion or voting 
rights, the holders of Common Stock may be unable to maintain their pro rata 
ownership interest or voting power in the Company.

                                       16

   5.          COMPETITION.  The banking business is highly competitive and 
the profitability of the Company will depend principally upon the Bank's 
ability to compete in its market area.  The Bank competes with other 
commercial and savings banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, 
finance companies, mutual funds, insurance companies, brokerage and 
investment banking firms, asset-based non-bank lenders and certain other 
non-financial institutions, including retail stores which may maintain their 
own credit programs and certain governmental organizations which may offer 
more favorable financing than the Bank.  Some of these competitors may have 
greater financial and other resources than the Company.  No assurances may be 
given concerning the Bank's competitive position in the future.  Various 
legislative acts in recent years have led to increased competition among 
financial institutions.  There can be no assurance that the United States 
Congress will not enact legislation that may further increase competitive 
pressures on the Bank.  The Bank competes with other financial institutions 
on the basis of service, convenience and price.  Due in part to both 
regulatory changes and consumer demands, banks have experienced increased 
competition from other financial and non-financial entities offering similar 
products which is expected to continue.

   6.          ECONOMIC CONDITIONS.  General economic conditions have a 
significant impact on the banking industry.  The credit quality of the Bank's 
loan portfolio necessarily reflects, among other things, the general economic 
conditions in the areas in which it conducts its business.  The financial 
success of the Company and the Bank depends somewhat on factors that are 
beyond the Company's control, including national and local economic 
conditions, the supply and demand for investable funds, interest rates, 
regulatory policies and federal, state and local laws affecting these 
matters.  Any substantial deterioration in any of the foregoing conditions 
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and 
results of operations, which in all likelihood, would adversely affect the 
market price of the Common Stock.

   7.          MONETARY POLICY.  The operating income and net income of the 
Bank will depend to a substantial extent on "rate differentials", i.e., the 
differences between the income the Bank receives from loans, securities and 
other earning assets, and the interest expense it pays to obtain deposits and 
other liabilities.  These rates are highly sensitive to many factors which 
are beyond the control of the Company, including general economic conditions 
and the policies of various governmental and regulatory authorities.  For 
example, in an expanding economy, loan demand usually increases and the 
interest rates charged on loans increase.  Increases in the discount rate by 
the Federal Reserve Board usually lead to rising interest rates, which affect 
the interest income, interest expense and investment portfolio.  Also, 
governmental policies such as the creation of a tax deduction for individual 
retirement accounts can increase savings and affect the cost of funds.

   8.          ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS.  The Company was incorporated under 
Delaware law. The Certificate of Incorporation, as well as certain Delaware 
and federal laws and regulations, could assist the Company in maintaining its 
status as an independent corporation.  The Certificate of Incorporation 
provides for cumulative voting for directors and authorizes the Board of 
Directors of the Company to issue shares of preferred stock of the Company 
("Company Preferred Stock") without stockholder approval and upon such terms 
as the Board of Directors may determine.  The rights of the holders of Common 
Stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the 
holders of any Company Preferred Stock that may be issued in the future.  The 
issuance of Company Preferred Stock, while providing desirable flexibility in 
connection with possible acquisitions, financings and other corporate 
purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party 
to acquire, or of discouraging a third 

                                       17


<PAGE>

party from acquiring, a controlling interest in the Company.  The Company has 
no present plans to issue any shares of Company Preferred Stock.  These 
provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation may discourage potential proxy 
contests and other takeover attempts, particularly those which have not been 
negotiated with the Board of Directors of the Company.  In addition, federal 
law also requires the approval of the OTS prior to the acquisition of 
"control" of a thrift holding company.

   9.          SHARES OF COMPANY STOCK ARE NOT DEPOSITS.  The shares of 
Company Stock are not deposits and, accordingly, are not insured against loss 
by the FDIC.

  10.          CAPITAL ADEQUACY AND LIQUIDITY.  Under the Financial 
Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") and the 
regulations of the OTS, the Bank must have: (1) core capital equal to 3% of 
adjusted total assets; (2) tangible capital equal to 1.5% of adjusted total 
assets; and (3) total capital equal to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, which 
includes off-balance sheet items.  On November 28, 1994, the OTS announced 
its decision to immediately reverse its August 1993 interim policy requiring 
institutions to include unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, on 
available-for-sale debt securities in regulatory capital. Because this 
revised policy applies only to regulatory capital, however, institutions must 
continue to comply with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 
No. 115, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES, for 
financial reporting purposes.

   A Prompt Corrective Action Directive ("PCAD") effective May 18, 1995 is in 
full force and effect which required the Bank to achieve the following 
capital ratios by June 30, 1995:  8% total risk-based capital, 4.0% Tier 1 
("core") risk-based capital ratio, and 4.0% leverage ratio.  The Bank has 
exceeded these ratios for all quarters since December 31, 1994.  The 
following table represents the Bank ratios through September 30, 1996:

                            %           %           %            %
      Ratio              Required    12-31-94    12-31-95     9-30-96
      -----              --------    --------    --------     -------
Core (RAP*) Capital        4.0         4.29        4.98        4.87
Leverage Ratio             4.0         4.29        4.98        4.87
Risk-based Capital         8.0        17.79       16.66       13.89

*"RAP" IS DEFINED AS "REGULATORY ACCOUNTING PRACTICES"

   Effective as of June 17, 1996 the Board and the OTS signed a Supervisory 
Agreement which states that it is of mutual benefit for the Bank to do the 
following:

   1.          Complete and submit a revised business and capital plan which 
               will:

               a.  Increase core capital to 6% as of December 31, 1996.

               b.  Increase core capital to 7% as of June 30, 1997.

   2.          Create an asset/liability and investment committee of the 
               Board to oversee and review pricing activities, investment  
               selection and interest rate risk.

   3.          Report quarterly on the Bank's operating results and explain 
               variances of actual results to budgeted projections.

                                       18


<PAGE>

This agreement may be suspended in part or in whole by the OTS Regional 
Director.  The Rights Offering constitutes a portion of the business and 
capital plan designed to meet the capital requirements under the Supervisory 
Agreement.

  11.          DILUTION.  Shareholders who do not exercise their Subscription 
Rights in full will suffer dilution in their voting rights and in their 
percentage interest in any future net earnings of the Company. All 
Shareholders will suffer a reduction in book value as a result of the sale of 
shares to subscribing Rights Holders at less than book value in the 
Subscription Offering.

   The following tables show the detail of such dilution (assuming, 
respectively, all Subscription Rights are exercised and half of the 
Subscription Rights are exercised):

   12.  MINIMUM SIZE OF OFFERING.  A minimum amount of proceeds of 
$1,500,000, including purchases by Standby Purchasers, is required for the 
Company to consummate the Subscription Offering.  No assurance can be given 
regarding the amount of proceeds that the Company will receive from the 
Subscription Offering. See "The Subscription Offering."  Other than with 
respect to Certain Holders and Directors (see "The Subscription 
Offering-Commitment of Certain Holders" and "The Subscription 
Offering-Commitment of Certain Directors"), the Company does not know if 
Rights Holders will exercise their Subscription Rights.  The Company does not 
have a firm commitment from any person to purchase any shares of Common Stock 
that remain unsold after the termination of the Subscription Offering.  (See, 
however, "Standby Purchase Agreements".)

   13.  MARKET CONSIDERATIONS.  It is possible that although a Rights Holder 
may subscribe for shares at a time when the Subscription Price is less than 
the prevailing market price, the market price of the Common Stock may decline 
during the subscription period after such Rights Holder exercises its 
Subscription Rights. The election of a Rights Holder to exercise Subscription 
Rights in the Subscription Offering is irrevocable. In addition, there can be 
no assurance that, following the Subscription Offering, a subscribing Rights 
Holder will be able to sell shares purchased in the Subscription Offering at 
a price equal to or greater than the Subscription Price. Moreover, until 
stock certificates are delivered, subscribing Rights Holders may not be able 
to sell the shares of Common Stock which they have purchased in the 
Subscription Offering.

   No interest will be paid to Rights Holders on funds delivered to the 
Subscription Agent pursuant to the exercise of Subscription Rights.

   14.  SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS AFFECTING THE FIRST SAVINGS BANK, F.S.B. 
PROFIT SHARING AND EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (THE "ESOP").  Generally, 
the shares of Common Stock held by the ESOP will be treated in the same 
manner as other shares of Common Stock under the Subscription Offering.  Each 
participant who has shares of Common Stock allocated to his or her account in 
the ESOP will be provided the opportunity, pursuant to procedures established 
by the ESOP Trustee, to exercise the Basic Subscription Rights attributable 
to the shares of Common Stock held in the participant's account.

   The Company expects to submit a prohibited transaction exemption request 
on November 6, 1996 to the Department of Labor (the "DOL") with respect to 
the holding and exercise of Subscription Rights by the ESOP and by the ESOP 
participants.  That prohibited transaction exemption request, if approved by 
the DOL, will be retroactively effective to the Expiration Date and will 
permit the holding and exercise of Subscription Rights by the ESOP and by the 
ESOP participants without involving a prohibited transaction.  In the event 
the prohibited transaction exemption request is not approved by the DOL, any 
Subscription Rights exercised by the ESOP and the ESOP participants will be 
invalidated, and any Common Stock issued to the ESOP pursuant to the exercise 
of such Subscription Rights will be voided, and the aggregate Subscription 
Price paid by the ESOP to exercise such Subscription Rights will be returned 
to the Plan, without interest.

   15. RIGHT TO TERMINATE AND AMEND THE SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING.  The Company 
expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time prior to 
delivery of the shares of Common Stock offered in the Subscription Offering, 
to terminate the Subscription Offering by giving oral or written notice 
thereof to the Subscription Agent and making a public announcement 

                                      23

<PAGE>

thereof. If the Subscription Offering is so terminated, all funds received 
from Rights Holders will be promptly refunded, without interest. The Company 
also reserves the right to amend the terms and conditions of the Subscription 
Offering. See "The Subscription Offering -Amendments and Waivers; Early 
Termination."

                              RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

  The Bank is a member of the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), 
which is administered by the FDIC.  Deposits in the Bank are insured up to 
applicable limits by the FDIC and such insurance is backed by the full faith 
and credit of the U.S. Government.  On September 30, 1996, the Economic 
Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (the "Act") was passed. 
 The Act contains a comprehensive approach to recapitalize the SAIF and 
assure payment of the Financing Corporation Funding ("FICO") obligations.  A 
key provision of Subtitle G of the Act imposed a special assessment on SAIF 
assessable deposits held in the Bank as of March 31, 1995. The "Special SAIF 
Assessment Statement" received by the Bank was for $761,685, which represents 
a charge of .006570 on an Assessment Deposit Base of $115,933,923 as of 
March 31, 1995.  This charge was accrued by the Bank as an Insurance Fund 
Expense in the third quarter ending September 30, 1996.  The charge is payable 
November 27, 1996.

   Other key provisions of SAIF/FICO reform are summarized as follows:

      1. The FICO obligation is to be shared by SAIF and Bank Insurance Fund 
   ("BIF") insured institutions beginning January 1 1997.

      2. The BIF and SAIF are to be merged into a new Deposit Insurance Fund 
   ("DIF") effective January 1, 1999, if saving associations do not exist.

      3. Creation of SAIF Special Reserve.

      4. Refund of amounts in DIF in excess of Designated Reserve Amount.

      5. Assessment Rates for SAIF members may not be less than Assessment 
   Rates for BIF members.

      6. Assessments authorized only if needed to maintain the reserve ratio 
   of the Deposit Insurance Fund.

      7. The Secretary of Treasury is to report to Congress by March 31, 1997 
   on issues relevant to a common depository institution charter.

      8. The Special Assessments may be deducted as a trade or business 
   expense in the year paid.

   In addition, the law significantly expands the authority of the Bank to 
make consumer and commercial loans.  The primary changes are as follows:

      1. To permit credit card loans to count as qualified thrift investments 
   without Qualified Thrift Lender ("QTL") limits;

      2. To permit education loans to be made without QTL limits;

      3. To increase the current 10% of asset limit to 20% on commercial 
   loans;

      4. To expand other consumer loans (excluding credit card and education 
   loans) QTL limits from 10% to 20%;

      5. To expand interstate branching if QTL test is met and if a state 
   thrift from the federal thrift's home state could branch into that other 
   state.

                          THE SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING

   The Company is offering (the "Subscription Offering") up to 732,198 shares 
of its Common Stock, $.01 par value ("Common Stock"), to holders of record of 
its Common Stock (the "Shareholders") at the close of business on _________ 
(the "Record Date"), pursuant to subscription rights (the "Subscription 
Rights").  The subscription price is _____ per share (the "Subscription 
Price"). Holders of Subscription Rights (collectively, the "Rights Holders") 
will be able to exercise their Subscription Rights until 5:00 p.m., New York 
time, on _________,1996 (such date, as it may be extended by the Company to a 
date not later than __________, 1996, being the "Expiration Date"). See "The 
Subscription Offering - Amendments and Waivers; Early Termination." 
Subscription Rights not exercised by 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the 
Expiration Date will be void. After the Expiration Date, Subscription Rights 
will no longer be exercisable to purchase shares of Common Stock and will 
have no value. The term "Shareholder" includes financial institutions that 
are participants in a securities depository, such as The Depository Trust 
Company, and that held shares of Common Stock on the Record Date in such 
securities depository. The Subscription Rights are non-transferable, except 
to the Standby Purchasers (as defined herein) (see "Standby Purchase 
Agreements").  The Company intends to offer, by means of this Prospectus, 
shares remaining, after the Subscription Offering and sales to Standby 
Purchasers, to other investors at the Subscription Price.  Such investors may 
also include existing shareholders.

PURPOSE OF OFFERING

   The primary purpose of the Subscription Offering is to enable the Company 
to infuse additional capital into the Bank so that the Bank will be in 
compliance with all regulatory capital requirements.  See "Use Of Proceeds" 
for a discussion of the Company's intended use of the proceeds from the 
Subscription Offering.

SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

   For each one share of Common Stock held of record as of the close of 
business on the Record Date, a Shareholder will receive one Subscription 
Right.  No fractional Subscription Rights will be issued by the Company.  The 
number of Subscription Rights distributed by the Company to each Shareholder 
will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Each Rights Holder will 
have the right to purchase one share of Common Stock for each Subscription 
Right. Rights Holders are entitled to subscribe for all, or any portion of, 
the shares of Common Stock underlying their Subscription Rights.  
Subscription Rights are evidenced by subscription warrants ("Subscription 
Warrants") which are being distributed to the Company's Shareholders 
contemporaneously with the delivery of this Prospectus.

STANDBY PURCHASE AGREEMENTS

   The Company expects to negotiate the terms of Standby Purchase Agreements 
with institutional investors as Standby Purchasers. It is anticipated that 
the Standby Purchasers severally and irrevocably will agree, subject to 
certain conditions, to acquire from the Company at the Subscription Price per 
share, 100,000 shares, if such shares remain available after the exercise of 
Rights pursuant to the Subscription Rights. It is expected that the purchase 
of these shares by the Standby Purchasers will be effected through the 
transfer of those Rights not exercised by Rights Holders prior to the 
Expiration Date pursuant to the Subscription Rights (the "Unexercised 
Rights") to the Standby Purchasers and the exercise by the Standby Purchasers 
of those transferred Unexercised Rights.

COMMITMENT OF CERTAIN RIGHTS HOLDERS

   Certain Rights Holders are expected to commit irrevocably to purchase, in 
the aggregate, 100,000 shares in the Rights Offering, which represents 92% of 
the shares that may be acquired by them upon the exercise of their 
Subscription Rights. The aggregate purchase price represented by these 
commitments is approximately $_________ million.  Such purchasers may be 
subject to certain regulatory limitations.  See "The Subscription Offering - 
Regulatory Limitation" and "Regulation and Supervision - Regulation of the 
Company."

COMMITMENT OF DIRECTORS

   Directors of the Bank are expected to commit irrevocably, to purchase, in 
the aggregate, 70,000 shares in the Rights Offering, which represents 75% of 
the shares that may be acquired by them upon the exercise of their 
Subscription Rights. The aggregate purchase price represented by these 
commitments is ____________.

ADDITIONAL INVESTORS

   The Company intends to offer, by means of this Prospectus, shares 
remaining, after the Subscription Offering and sales to Standby Purchasers, 
to other investors at the Subscription Price. Such investors may also include 
existing shareholders.

NO FRACTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

   No fractional Subscription Rights will be issued by the Company. The 
number of Subscription Rights distributed by the Company to each Shareholder 
will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

METHOD OF EXERCISING SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

   Subscription Rights may be exercised by properly completing, signing, and 
delivering the Subscription Warrant accompanying this Prospectus, together 
with payment in full of the aggregate Subscription Price for shares of Common 
Stock subscribed for pursuant to Subscription Rights. Subscription Warrants 
and payments must be received by the Subscription Agent before 5:00 p.m., New 
York time, on the Expiration Date, at the address provided below 

                                     26
<PAGE>

under "Subscription Agent." Payment of the aggregate Subscription Price must 
be made in United States dollars and must be made by bank certified check or 
cashier's check, payable to the order of the Subscription Agent. ONCE A 
HOLDER HAS EXERCISED A SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT, THE EXERCISE IS IRREVOCABLE 
UNLESS, IN THE JUDGMENT OF THE COMPANY, THERE IS A MATERIAL AMENDMENT TO THE 
SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING AND THE SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT IS EXERCISED BEFORE SUCH 
AMENDMENT.  See "Amendments and Waivers; Early Termination" below. See 
"Foreign Restrictions and Undeliverable Subscription Warrants" below for a 
discussion of restrictions on the method of exercising Subscription Rights 
held by Shareholders whose record addresses are outside of the continental 
United States or Canada, or are A.P.O. or F.P.O. addresses.

   The method of delivery of Subscription Warrants and payments of any 
Subscription Price to the Subscription Agent is at the risk of the Rights 
Holder. The Company suggests that Express Mail or similar overnight carrier 
be used to ensure timely delivery. If delivery is made by regular mail 
service, the use of registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, 
properly insured, is recommended.  COMPLETED SUBSCRIPTION WARRANTS AND 
PAYMENTS SHOULD BE MAILED OR DELIVERED TO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT AND NOT TO 
THE COMPANY. QUESTIONS GENERALLY REGARDING THE SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING SHOULD 
BE DIRECTED TO THE COMPANY.

LATE DELIVERY OF SUBSCRIPTION WARRANTS

   If, prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, the 
Subscription Agent has received full payment as specified above for the total 
number of shares of Common Stock subscribed for, together with a letter or 
telegram from a bank or trust company or a member of a national securities 
exchange in the United States stating the name of the subscriber, the number 
of Subscription Rights represented by the Subscription Warrant, and the 
number of shares of Common Stock subscribed for, and guaranteeing that the 
Subscription Warrant will be delivered to the Subscription Agent within five 
business days after Subscription Agent's receipt of payment, such 
subscription will be accepted by the Subscription Agent, subject to the 
withholding of the stock certificates representing the shares of Common Stock 
subscribed for pending receipt of the duly executed Subscription Warrant 
within such five day period.

DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES; REFUNDS

   Certificates representing shares of Common Stock subscribed for and issued 
will be mailed promptly after the Expiration Date (i.e., within three 
business days following the Expiration Date or, where permitted, within three 
business days following the late delivery of Subscription Warrants). 
Certificates for shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of 
Subscription Rights will be registered in the name of the Rights Holder 
exercising such Subscription Rights. The Subscription Agent will place all 
proceeds of the Subscription Offering into an escrow account until such funds 
are transferred to the Company or refunded to Rights Holders at the 
completion or termination of the Subscription Offering. No interest will be 
paid to Rights Holders on funds delivered to the Subscription Agent pursuant 
to the exercise of the Subscription Rights. The shares of Common Stock 
subscribed for pursuant to the Subscription Offering will be issued and sold 
as of the Expiration Date.

                                      27

<PAGE>

TERMINATION DATE

   Unless earlier terminated by the Company, the Subscription Offering will 
automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the ____th day 
following the Expiration Date. See "Amendments and Waivers; Early 
Termination" below.

FOREIGN RESTRICTIONS AND UNDELIVERABLE SUBSCRIPTION WARRANTS

   Because of the short exercise period for the Subscription Rights, 
Subscription Warrants will not be mailed to Shareholders whose record 
addresses are outside the continental United States or Canada, or are A.P.O. 
or F.P.O. addresses. Subscription Warrants will be held by the Subscription 
Agent for such Shareholders' respective accounts until instructions are 
received to exercise the Subscription Rights. If no instructions have been 
received by ___________, New York time, on the Expiration Date, the 
Subscription Rights of those Shareholders, together with the Subscription 
Rights of those Shareholders whose addresses are not known by the Company or 
the Subscription Agent or to whom delivery of a Subscription Warrant could 
not be made, will expire.

PARTIAL EXERCISE OF RIGHTS

   Rights Holders who elect to exercise their Subscription Rights in part may 
do so by delivering to the Subscription Agent at the address set forth under 
"Subscription Agent" below, a Subscription Warrant that has been properly 
endorsed for partial subscription.

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS; EARLY TERMINATION

   The Company reserves the right to automatically extend the Expiration Date 
to a date not later than __________________, and to otherwise amend the terms 
and conditions of the Subscription Offering, whether the amended terms are 
less or more favorable to the Rights Holders. If any such amendment to the 
terms and conditions of the Subscription Offering constitutes, in the 
judgment of the Company, a material adverse change to Rights Holders, the 
Company will deliver to Shareholders a new prospectus incorporating such 
amendment and the Company will set a new expiration date which will be a 
minimum of ten business days from the date of the amended prospectus and not 
later than __________________. Properly completed subscriptions received or 
in transit prior to such amendment, unless revoked before the new expiration 
date, will be honored.

   All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of 
receipt and record ownership), and acceptance of any exercise of Subscription 
Rights shall be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, and its 
determination shall be final and binding. The Company reserves the right to 
reject any exercise if such exercise is not in accordance with the terms of 
the Subscription Offering or not in proper form or if the acceptance thereof 
or the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto could be deemed 
unlawful. The Company also reserves the right to waive any deficiency or 
irregularity with respect to the exercise of any Subscription Warrant.

   The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time prior 
to delivery of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby, to terminate the 
Subscription Offering by giving oral or written notice thereof to the 
Subscription Agent and making a public announcement thereof. If the

                                     28
<PAGE>

Subscription Offering is so terminated, all funds received from Rights 
Holders will be promptly refunded, without interest.

DETERMINATION OF SUBSCRIPTION PRICE AND FAIRNESS OPINION

   The Subscription Price will be determined by the Company in consultation 
with its financial advisor, ________________ ("Financial Advisor").  In 
determining the Subscription Price, the Company will consider, among other 
things, such factors as the prevailing market price and book value of the 
Company's Common Stock, the business prospects of the Company and the Bank, 
and the general condition of the securities markets.

   The Company expects to receive from the Financial Advisor an opinion to 
the effect that based on, among other things, the trading history of the 
Common Stock and the Bank's common stock, the publicly available financial 
information regarding the Company and the Bank, discussions with management 
regarding the terms of the Subscription Offering, and a review of the terms 
and conditions of rights offerings of other publicly traded companies, the 
consideration to be received pursuant to the Subscription Offering and the 
terms and conditions that exist as of the date of the opinion, taken as a 
whole, will be fair from a financial point of view to the shareholders of the 
Company.  The full text of the Financial Advisor's opinion will be set forth 
as an Appendix to this Prospectus and should be read in its entirety with 
respect to the assumptions made and other matters considered and limitations 
on the review undertaken. The Company has agreed to pay the Financial Advisor 
$17,500 as financial advisory fees for its services.  In addition, the 
Financial Advisor will be indemnified against certain liabilities, including 
liabilities under the securities laws.

MARKET CONDITIONS

   It is possible that a Rights Holder may subscribe for shares of Common 
Stock at a time when the Subscription Price is less than the prevailing 
market price. The market price of the Common Stock, however, may decline 
during the subscription period after such Rights Holder exercises its 
Subscription Rights. The election of a Rights Holder to exercise Subscription 
Rights in the Subscription Offering is irrevocable unless, in the judgment of 
the Company, there is a material amendment to the Subscription Offering and 
the Subscription Rights were exercised before such amendment. See "Amendments 
and Waivers; Early Termination" above. In addition, there can be no assurance 
that following the Subscription Offering a subscribing Rights Holder will be 
able to sell shares purchased in the Subscription Offering at a price equal 
to or greater than the Subscription Price. Moreover, until certificates are 
delivered, subscribing Rights Holders may not be able to sell the shares of 
Common Stock which they have purchased in the Subscription Offering. 
Certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued in the Subscription 
Offering will be mailed to subscribing Rights Holders at the addresses 
appearing on their Subscription Warrant promptly following the Expiration 
Date (i.e., within three business days following the Expiration Date or, 
where permitted, within three business days following the late delivery of 
Subscription Warrants). See "Late Delivery of Subscription Warrants" above.

REGULATORY LIMITATION

The Company will not be required to issue Subscription Rights or shares of 
Common Stock pursuant to the Subscription Offering to any Rights Holder to 
whom such issuance is prohibited by law or regulation or to anyone who would 
be required to obtain prior clearance or 

                                         29

<PAGE>

approval from any state or federal bank regulatory authority to own or 
control such shares if, on the Expiration Date, such clearance or approval 
has not been obtained.  See "Regulation And Supervision -Regulation of the 
Company".

NO BOARD OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR RECOMMENDATION

   An investment in the Common Stock must be made pursuant to each investor's 
evaluation of its, his, or her best interests. ACCORDINGLY, NEITHER THE BOARD 
OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY NOR ITS FINANCIAL ADVISOR MAKES ANY 
RECOMMENDATION TO THE RIGHTS HOLDERS REGARDING WHETHER THEY SHOULD EXERCISE 
THEIR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS.

NO FIRM COMMITMENT TO PURCHASE UNSUBSCRIBED SHARES

   The Company does not have a firm commitment from any person to purchase 
any shares of Common Stock which remain unsubscribed after the Expiration 
Date.  See, however, "Standby Purchase Agreements".

SUBSCRIPTION AGENT

   The Bank will act as the Company's agent to accept exercises of 
Subscription Rights. All communications to the Subscription Agent, including 
the delivery of Subscription Warrants and payment of the aggregate 
Subscription Price, should be addressed as follows:

                             First Savings Bank, F.S.B.
                             801 Pile Street
                             Clovis, New Mexico  88101

                            THE COMPANY

   The Company was incorporated as a business corporation under the laws of 
the State of Delaware on August 27, 1996, for the purpose of serving as a 
unitary thrift holding company for the Bank under HOLA.  The Company owns 
100% of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank.  The Company's principal 
executive offices, are located at 801 Pile Street, Clovis, New Mexico 88101. 
The Company's telephone number is (505) 762-4417.

   Although the Company has no present plans to engage in any activity other 
than the ownership and operation of the Bank, one of the benefits of 
organizing the Company as a unitary thrift holding company was to make 
possible, if favorable business opportunities arise in the future, the growth 
and increased potential of the stockholders' investment through transactions 
such as the acquisition of other financial institutions or the expansion of 
services offered to customers of the Bank into one or more of the areas of 
activities permitted for a unitary thrift holding company.  In addition, the 
Company will have more flexibility in meeting any future financing needs 
through borrowings or debt or equity financings.  Some or all of the 
foregoing will be subject to compliance with certain regulatory and other 
restrictions.  Since for the near term the principal business of the Company 
will be the current ongoing business of the Bank, the competitive conditions 
to be encountered by the Company will be the same or similar to those faced 
by the Bank.

                                         30
<PAGE>

   Because the Company is a newly-formed corporation with no operating 
history, historical information with respect to legal proceedings, financial 
data or accountants, management's discussion of operations, dividends and 
other matters is not available.  The Company Stock has been listed on the 
NASDAQ Small Cap Market in a manner similar to that of the Bank common stock 
prior to October 21, 1996, the date of the merger which resulted in the 
Company becoming a unitary thrift holding company.  The Company does not have 
any record of paying dividends.  See "Dividends."

   At the present time, the Company does not intend to employ any persons 
other than its management.  The Company may utilize the administrative staff 
of the Bank from time to time without compensation therefor.  If the Company 
acquires other financial institutions or pursues other lines of business, it 
may at such time hire additional employees or management officials.

                              USE OF PROCEEDS

   The net proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock in the Subscription 
Offering will be used, first, to infuse capital into the Bank to meet OTS 
requirements, and, second, to the extent available, for general corporate 
purposes, which may include financing of possible future acquisitions of 
other banking institutions or related businesses and technology enhancements. 
The Supervisory Agreement with the OTS provides for the Bank to increase its 
core capital position to 6% by December 31, 1996 and to a level of 7% no 
later than June 30, 1997.  At the present time, the Company does not have any 
specific plans, agreements, or understandings, written or oral, pertaining to 
the proposed acquisition of any banking institution or related business.

   With the completion of the Subscription Offering, assuming the minimum 
required subscriptions, and the capital contribution by the Company to the 
Bank, the Bank will have achieved the capital level required by the OTS as of 
December 31, 1996. Additional capital may be required to meet the June 30, 
1997 required capital level.  The PCAD will remain in effect until 
terminated, modified or suspended by the OTS. Upon completion of the 
Subscription Offering, the Bank intends to apply to the OTS to be released 
from the PCAD and the Supervisory Agreement, assuming the required capital is 
raised.  However, there can be no assurance that the minimum required capital 
will be raised or that the OTS will release the Bank from the PCAD or the 
Supervisory Agreement.

Capitalization (Assuming a $5.75 Subscription Price)

The following tables set forth the consolidated capitalization of the Bank as 
of September 30, 1996, as adjusted to 1) reflect the pro forma consolidation 
with the Company as of that date, and 2) give effect to the issuance of the 
Common Stock in the Subscription Offering (assuming, respectively, all 
Subscription Rights are exercised and half of the Subscription Rights are 
exercised).  The tables should be read in conjunction with the detailed 
information and consolidated financial statements of the Bank included in the 
prospectus.  The capitalization, as adjusted, is presented for informational

     No dividends have been paid to the Company by the Bank since the 
formation of the Company. The Bank last paid a stock dividend in 1989 and a 
cash dividend in 1988.  No assurances can be given with respect to the amount 
and timing of future dividends. For a discussion of restrictions on the 
Company's ability to pay dividends due to certain regulatory restrictions, 
see "Risk Factors - Dividend Limitations."  Due to the Bank's financial 
condition and regulatory restrictions, management does not anticipate the 
payment of dividends to holders of Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

                     CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

     The following discussion sets forth the material United States federal 
income tax considerations associated with the receipt, ownership, and 
exercise of Subscription Rights.

     For United States federal income tax purposes, receipt of the 
Subscription Rights pursuant to the Subscription Offering should be treated 
as a nontaxable dividend distribution. A Shareholder will have a zero basis 
in the Subscription Rights received in the Subscription Offering, unless: (i) 
either the Shareholder elects under Section 307 of the Internal Revenue Code 
of 1986, as amended, to allocate a portion of his basis in his existing 
shares of Common Stock to the Subscription Rights (based on their relative 
fair market values on the date of distribution) or (ii) the fair market value 
of the Subscription Rights at the time of the distribution equals or exceeds 
15% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at that time, in which case 
the allocation of basis (based upon relative fair market values) is required.

     Upon exercise of a Subscription Right, a Shareholder will not recognize 
gain or loss, The basis of each share of Common Stock acquired upon exercise 
of a Subscription Right will equal the sum of the Subscription Price and the 
basis, if any, in the Subscription Rights exercised.  The holding period for 
such Common Stock will begin on the date the Subscription Rights are 
exercised.

     No loss will be recognized by a Shareholder who receives Subscription 
Rights in the Subscription Offering and allows those Subscription Rights to 
lapse.

     THE ACTUAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SHAREHOLDERS MAY VARY DEPENDING UPON 
THEIR OWN PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES. ACCORDINGLY, SHAREHOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO 
CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISERS WITH RESPECT TO THE FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL 
TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DISTRIBUTION AND EXERCISE OF THE SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS.

                         REGULATION AND SUPERVISION

GENERAL

     The Bank is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision 
by the OTS, as its chartering agency, and the FDIC, as its deposit insurer.  
The Bank's deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the 
Savings Association Insurance Fund administered by the FDIC, and it is a 
member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas.  The Bank must file reports 
with the OTS and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition, 
and it must obtain regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain 
transactions, such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other depository 
institutions.  The OTS and the FDIC conduct periodic examinations to assess 
the Bank's compliance with various regulatory requirements.  Such regulation 
and supervision establish a comprehensive framework of activities in which an 
institution may engage and are intended primarily for the protection of the 
insurance fund and depositors.  The Company, as a unitary thrift holding 
company, is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with, 
the rules and regulations of the OTS and of the Commission under the federal 
securities laws.

     The OTS and the FDIC have significant 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.  Any 
change in such regulation and policies, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or 
action of the United States Congress, could have a material adverse impact on 
the Company, the Bank and the operations of both.

     In 1992, the Bank was deemed to be undercapitalized by the OTS and 
agreed to the issuance in July 1993 of a Prompt Corrective Action Directive, 
which directive was amended in August 1994. The directive required the Bank 
to submit a capital restoration plan to the OTS, prescribed restrictions on 
dividends, management fees, asset growth, branching and other matters and 
established increased capital levels for the Bank.  The Bank is currently in 
compliance with the provisions of the directive.  As previously noted, the 
Bank entered into a Supervisory Agreement with the OTS effective as of June 
17, 1996.  The Supervisory Agreement provides for the Bank to increase its 
core capital position to 6% by December 31, 1996 and to a level of 7% no 
later than June 30, 1997.  To comply with certain other terms of the 
Supervisory Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Bank appointed three (3) 
outside directors to the Bank's Asset/Liability and Investment Committee, 
revised its business and capital plan and reports quarterly on variances of 
actual results to budgeted projections.  See "Recent Developments" for a 
discussion of the recent legislation which has adversely affected the Bank's 
capital position.

REGULATION OF THE COMPANY

     The following discussion is intended to be a brief description of 
certain statutes and regulations applicable to a savings and loan holding 
company.  It does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all such 
statutes and regulations and is qualified in its entirety by reference to 
applicable laws and regulations.


                                     37

<PAGE>

     The Company, as a unitary thrift holding company, is a savings and loan 
holding company within the meaning of HOLA.  As such, the Company is required 
to register with the OTS and is subject to OTS regulations, examinations, 
supervision and reporting requirements.  In addition, the OTS has enforcement 
authority over the Company and its non-savings association subsidiaries, if 
any. Among other things, this authority permits the OTS to restrict or 
prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the financial 
safety, soundness or stability of a subsidiary savings association.

     Except under limited circumstances, savings and loan holding companies 
are prohibited from acquiring, without prior approval of the OTS, control of 
any other savings institution or savings and loan holding company or 
substantially all the assets thereof or more than five percent of the voting 
shares of a savings institution or holding company thereof which is not a 
subsidiary.  In evaluating an application by a holding company to acquire a 
savings association, the OTS must consider the financial and managerial 
resources and future prospects of the company and savings association 
involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance funds, 
the convenience and needs of the community and competitive factors.  
Acquisitions which result in a savings and loan holding company controlling 
savings associations  in more than one state are generally prohibited except 
in supervisory transactions involving failing savings associations or based 
on specific state authorization to permit such acquisitions.

    Federal law also requires OTS approval prior to any change of control of 
the Company or the Bank.  Under OTS regulations, "control" is presumed to 
exist if an individual or company acquires more than twenty-five percent of 
any class of voting stock of a savings association or holding company. 
Control is also presumed to exist, subject to being rebutted, if a person 
acquires more than ten percent of any class of voting stock (or more than 
twenty-five percent of any class of non-voting stock) and is subject to any 
of several control factors, including, among other matters, the relative 
ownership position of a person, the existence of control agreements and other 
factors.

     As a unitary thrift holding company, the Company generally will not be 
restricted under existing laws to the types of business activities in which 
it may engage, provided that the Bank continues to satisfy the QTL test.  
Upon any non-supervisory acquisition by the Company of another thrift or 
savings bank that meets the QTL test and is deemed to be a savings 
association by the OTS and that will be held as a separate subsidiary, the 
Company would become a multiple savings and loan holding company and would be 
subject to limitations on the types of business activities in which it could 
engage.  HOLA generally limits the activities of a multiple savings and loan 
holding company and its non-insured association subsidiaries primarily to 
activities permissible for bank holding companies under the Bank Holding 
Company Act, subject to the prior approval of the OTS, and to other 
activities authorized by OTS regulation.  See "Recent Developments" for a 
discussion of recent legislation affecting the Company and the Bank.

     A savings association or a savings and loan holding company is required 
to give 30 days prior written notice to the OTS of any proposed appointment 
of a director or senior executive officer if the institution has been 
chartered less than two years, has undergone a change in control 


                                    38

<PAGE>

within the preceding two years, or is not in compliance with the minimum 
capital requirements or otherwise is in a trouble condition.  The OTS then 
has the opportunity to disapprove any such appointment.

     Transactions between the Bank and the Company and its other subsidiaries 
are subject to various conditions and limitations.  The Bank will be required 
to give 30 days written notice to the OTS prior to any declaration of the 
payment of any dividends or other capital distributions to the Company.

                   DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY CAPITAL STOCK

GENERAL

     The Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of capital 
stock consisting of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 4,000,000 shares of 
Company Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share.  There are currently 
732,198 shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of the exchange of 
shares of Company Common Stock for shares of Bank common stock in connection 
with the formation of the Company as a unitary thrift holding company on 
October 21, 1996.

     In the future, the authorized but unissued and unreserved shares of 
Common Stock and the authorized and unissued shares of Company Preferred 
Stock will be available for issuance for general corporate purposes, 
including, but not limited to, possible issuance as stock dividends or stock 
splits, future mergers or acquisitions, or future private placements or 
public offerings.  The Company's Board of Directors may (i) cause the 
issuance of one or more series of the authorized shares of Company Preferred 
Stock, (ii) fix the number of shares constituting any such new series and 
(iii) fix the dividend rate, terms, conditions, conversion and exchange 
rights, redemption rights (including sinking fund provisions), liquidation 
preferences and voting rights, if any, of any such new series.  Such rights 
and preferences may be superior to those of Common Stock.  Except as 
otherwise may be required to approve a merger or other transaction in which 
the additional authorized shares of Common Stock or authorized shares of 
Company Preferred Stock would be issued, no stockholder approval will be 
required for the issuance of those shares.

COMMON STOCK

     GENERAL.  Each share of Common Stock has the same relative rights as, 
and is identical in all respects to, each other share of Common Stock. Until 
such time as voting Company Preferred Stock is issued, if ever, the holders 
of shares of Common Stock will possess all rights, including exclusive voting 
rights, pertaining to the capital stock of the Company.

     DIVIDEND RIGHTS.  The holders of Common Stock will be entitled to 
dividends when, as and if declared by Company's Board of Directors out of 
funds legally available therefor.  The payment of dividends by the Company 
will depend on the Company's net income, financial condition, regulatory 
requirements and other factors, including the results of the Bank's 


                                     39

<PAGE>

operations.  See "Dividends" for restrictions on the payment of dividends on 
Common Stock.   The Company has no present intention to pay dividends, but 
may consider doing so in the future.

    VOTING RIGHTS.  Each share of Common Stock entities the holder thereof to 
one vote on all matters upon which stockholders have the right to vote.  In 
addition, the Board of Directors of the Company is classified so that 
approximately one-third of the directors will be elected each year. 
Stockholders of the Company will be entitled to cumulate their votes for the 
election of directors. Cumulative voting may allow a minority of the 
stockholders to elect directors that would not otherwise be possible.

     LIQUIDATION RIGHTS.  In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or 
winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of Common Stock will be 
entitled to receive, after payment of all debts and liabilities of the 
Company and subject to the prior rights, if any, of holders of shares of 
Company Preferred Stock, all remaining assets of the Company available for 
distribution in cash or in kind.  In the event of any liquidation, 
dissolution or winding up of the Bank, the Company, as the holder of all 
shares of Bank common stock, would be entitled to receive payment of all 
assets of the Bank available for distribution in cash or in kind remaining 
after the payment of all debts and liabilities of the Bank (including all 
deposits and accrued interest thereon).

    PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS; REDEMPTION.  Holders of shares of Common Stock will 
not be entitled to preemptive rights with respect to any shares that may be 
issued. Company Stock is not subject to call or redemption.

COMPANY PREFERRED STOCK

     The Board of Directors of the Company has no present plan or intention 
to issue any Company Preferred Stock.  The Board of Directors may, without 
action of the stockholders of Company, issue shares of Company Preferred 
Stock from time to time in one or more series with chosen designations, 
preferences, limitations and other rights.

     The Board of Directors is authorized to determine, among other things, 
with respect to each series which may be issued: (i) the dividend rate, 
conditions of payment of dividends, dividend preferences, if any, and whether 
dividends would be cumulative and, if so, the date from which dividends on 
such series would accumulate; (ii) whether, and upon what terms, such series 
would be redeemable and, if so, the redemption price and terms and conditions 
of redemption; (iii) the preference, if any, to which such series would be 
entitled in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or 
winding up of Company; (iv) whether or not a sinking fund would be provided 
for the redemption of such series and, if so, the terms and conditions 
thereof; (v) whether, and upon what terms, such series would be convertible 
into or exchangeable for shares of any other class of capital stock or other 
series of Company Preferred Stock; and (vi) whether, and to what extent, the 
holders of such series would enjoy voting rights, if any, in addition to 
those prescribed by law. With regard to dividends, redemption and liquidation 
preference, any particular series of Company Preferred Stock may rank junior 
to, on a parity with or senior to any other series of Company Preferred Stock.


                                     40
<PAGE>


     It is not possible to state the actual effect of the authorization of 
Company Preferred Stock upon the rights of holders of Common Stock until the 
Board of Directors determines the specific rights of the holders of a series 
of Company Preferred Stock.  However, such effects might include (a) 
restrictions on dividends on Common Stock if dividends on Company Preferred 
Stock have not been paid; (b) dilution of the voting power of Common Stock to 
the extent that Company Preferred Stock has voting rights; (c) dilution of 
the equity interest of Common Stock to the extent that Company Preferred 
Stock is convertible into Common Stock; or (d) Common Stock not being 
entitled to share in the Company's assets upon liquidation until satisfaction 
of any liquidation preference granted the holders of Company Preferred Stock. 
 Issuance of Company Preferred Stock, while providing desirable flexibility 
in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could 
make it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of the 
outstanding voting stock of the Company.  Accordingly, the issuance of 
Company Preferred Stock may be used as an "anti-takeover" device without 
further action on the part of the stockholders of Company.

                                DIVIDENDS

     Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends paid out of 
legally available funds as and when declared by the Company's Board of 
Directors based upon the earnings and financial condition of the Company, 
liquidity and capital requirements, the general economic and regulatory 
climate, the Company's ability to service any equity or debt obligations 
senior to the Company Stock and other factors deemed relevant by the 
Company's Board of Directors.  The Company is also subject to the 
requirements of Delaware law regarding the payment of dividends.

     For a foreseeable period of time, the principal source of cash revenues 
to the Company will be dividends paid by the Bank with respect to the Bank 
common stock.  There are certain statutory and regulatory limitations on the 
payment of such dividends (and other capital distributions) including OTS 
regulatory capital requirements.  In some cases, the OTS may prohibit a 
dividend payment that meets these requirements on the basis that such a 
distribution would be an unsafe or unsound practice.  Furthermore, the Bank 
may not pay a dividend if it will cause the institution to become 
"undercapitalized."

     The Bank is subject to an OTS Supervisory Agreement effective as of June 
17, 1996 which requires, among other things, that the Bank increase its 
capital.  This agreement will inhibit the payment of dividends by the Bank 
for the foreseeable future.

     The Bank is required to give the OTS thirty days prior notice of the 
proposed declaration by its directors of any dividend.  Any such dividend 
declared within the thirty day period or without giving such notice shall be 
invalid and shall confer no rights or benefits on the Company as the sole 
stockholder of the Bank.

     Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, an insured bank is prohibited 
from paying dividends on its capital stock while in default in the payment of 
any assessment due to the FDIC except in those cases where the amount of the 
assessment is in dispute and the insured bank has deposited satisfactory 
security.  The Bank is not in default in the payment of any such assessment.


                                     41


<PAGE>

     The Bank last paid a stock dividend in 1989 and a cash dividend in 1988. 
 The Company's Board of Directors does not currently intend to declare any 
cash dividends at any time in the foreseeable future.

                               PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     The Common Stock offered hereby is being offered by the Company directly 
to Shareholders on the Record Date.  The Company has not employed any 
brokers, dealers, or underwriters in connection with the Subscription 
Offering, and no underwriting commissions, fees, or discounts will be paid in 
connection with the Subscription Offering.  Certain regular employees of the 
Company and the Subscription Agent may solicit responses from Rights Holders 
to the Subscription Offering, but such employees will not receive any 
commission or compensation for such services other than their normal 
employment compensation.

     SHAREHOLDERS OR RIGHTS HOLDERS WHO DESIRE TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON 
STOCK IN THE SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING ARE URGED TO COMPLETE, DATE, AND SIGN THE 
SUBSCRIPTION WARRANT ACCOMPANYING THIS PROSPECTUS AND RETURN IT TO THE 
SUBSCRIPTION AGENT ON OR BEFORE THE EXPIRATION DATE OF THE SUBSCRIPTION 
OFFERING, TOGETHER WITH PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE AGGREGATE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE. 
ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE PROCEDURE FOR SUBSCRIBING FOR THE PURCHASE OF 
SHARES OF COMMON STOCK SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT OR THE 
COMPANY.

     The Bank expects to negotiate the terms of Standby Purchase Agreements 
with institutional investors as Standby Purchasers. It is anticipated that 
the Standby Purchasers severally and irrevocably will agree, subject to 
certain conditions, to acquire from the Bank at the Subscription Price per 
share, 100,000 shares, if such shares remain available after the exercise of 
rights pursuant to the Subscription Rights. It is expected that the purchase 
of these shares by the Standby Purchasers will be effected through the 
transfer of those rights not exercised by Rights Holders prior to the 
Expiration Date pursuant to the Subscription Rights (the "Unexercised 
Rights") to the Standby Purchasers and the exercise by the Standby Purchasers 
of those transferred Unexercised Rights.

     The Company intends to offer, by means of this Prospectus, shares 
remaining, after the Subscription Offering and sales to Standby Purchasers, 
to other investors at the Subscription Price. Such investors may also include 
existing shareholders.

              DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Portions of this Prospectus include forward looking statements within 
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the 
Exchange Act.  Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected 
in such forward looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it 
can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved.  Important 
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the 
Company's expectations are disclosed in conjunction with the forward looking 
statements included herein ("Cautionary

Disclosures").  Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements 
attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly 
qualified in their entirety by the Cautionary Disclosures.

       DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR
                      SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

     Delaware law provides for, under certain circumstances, indemnification 
of the directors and officers of the Company against costs and expenses 
incurred by them in the defense of a suit or proceeding in which they are 
involved by reason of having been an officer or director of the Company. 
Agreements providing for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by 
law have been entered into with each director and officer.  In addition, the 
Company maintains insurance on a regular basis (and not specifically in 
connection with this offering) against liabilities arising on the part of 
directors and officers out of their performance in such capacities or arising 
on the part of the Company out of said indemnification provisions, subject to 
certain exclusions and to the policy limits.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling 
the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been 
informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is 
against public policy as expressed in such Act and is therefore unenforceable.

                          LEGAL MATTERS

      The validity of the shares of the Common Stock will be passed upon for 
the Company by Keleher & McLeod, P.A., Albuquerque, New Mexico, special 
counsel to the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

NOTE A - BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the 
accounts of First Savings Bank, F.S.B. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First 
Equity Development Corporation. Collectively, First  Savings Bank and First 
Equity Development Corporation are referred to herein as the Bank.  The 
financial statements do not include all disclosures required by generally 
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  Certain 
information required by generally accepted accounting principles has been 
condensed or omitted pursuant to regulations of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been 
eliminated.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments 
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which Management considers 
necessary for a fair presentation of results for those interim periods.  The 
results for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are not 
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with 
the audited consolidated financial statements of the Bank for the year ended 
December 31, 1995.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 consolidated financial 
statements in order for them to conform with the 1996 presentation.

    obligation under the original terms of the agreements and loans to
    facilitate the sale of real estate.

(3) Refers to real estate acquired by the Bank through foreclosure or 
    voluntary deed.

NOTE G - INCOME TAXES

At December 31, 1995, the Bank had remaining net operating loss carryforwards 
of approximately $5,555,000 for federal income tax purposes which expire in 
varying amounts through 2009.  In addition, at that date the alternative 
minimum tax (AMT) net operating loss carryforward and AMT credit carryforward 
were approximately $5,866,000 and $101,000, respectively, which will expire 
in varying amounts through 2009.  At December 31, 1995, the Bank had 
remaining net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $44,583,000 for 
state income tax purposes which expire in varying amounts through 2005.  
These state net operating loss carryforwards are substantially more than the 
federal net operating loss carryforwards as a result of the exclusion of U.S. 
Investment security and other income for state income tax purposes.

The Bank has incurred significant losses during the nine months ended 
September 30, 1996 which resulted primarily from a one-time deposit insurance 
assessment which is described in Note H. Accordingly, the aforementioned net 
operating loss carryforwards existing at December 31, 1995 have increased 
substantially since that date.


NOTE H - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During September 1996, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) 
imposed a special assessment on assessable deposits of insured depository 
institutions that are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund.  In 
October 1996, the Bank was notified by the FDIC that the assessment to be 
charged to the Bank was approximately $762,000 and is to be paid in November 
1996.  The amount of the assessment has been accrued as of September 30, 1996.

At a special meeting of the stockholders of the Bank on October 18, 1996, an 
agreement and plan of reorganization by and between the Bank and Access 
Anytime Bancorp, Inc. (AABC), a newly-formed unitary thrift holding company, 
was approved whereby the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of AABC under 
a stock for stock exchange.

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total liabilities for the Bank decreased by $7,424,854 or 6.67% from December 
31, 1995 to September 30, 1996, and total assets decreased by $8,053,955 or 
6.89% during the same period. The decrease in total liabilities was primarily 
the result of a decrease in deposits of $8,241,948 or 7.45% due to the Bank's 
overall strategy to change the product mix of deposit accounts offered to its 
customers and decreasing reliance on public fund deposits.

The decrease in liabilities was partially offset by an accrual of $761,686 in 
September 1996 relating to a special premium assessment by the Federal 
Deposit Insurance Corporation as a part of the Economic Growth and Regulatory 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 which, in part, contains a comprehensive 
approach to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund.  The decline 
in deposits was funded primarily by a reduction in cash and cash equivalents 
of $2.1 million, and proceeds from maturities and principal repayments of 
investments available-for-sale and investments held-to-maturity, net, of 
approximately $8.6 and $4.8 million, respectively, during the first nine 
months of 1996.  In addition to the funding of deposit reductions, the 
maturities and increased principal prepayments on available-for-sale and 
held-to-maturity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 
were used to fund an increase in loans receivable of approximately $7.6 
million, which is also the result of the Bank's strategy to enhance future 
earnings through a change in the overall asset/liability mix of the Bank's 
interest earning assets as they relate to its interest bearing liabilities.  
The primary changes in the Bank's loan portfolio at September 30, 1996 as 
compared to that at December 31, 1995 were in conventional first mortgage 
loans (($4,333,863 or 17.26% increase), consumer and installment loans 
($3,187,352 or 69.10% increase), and construction loans ($1,359,796 or 
128.29% increase).

CAPITAL ADEQUACY AND LIQUIDITY

CAPITAL ADEQUACY - Under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and 
Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) and the implementation of Office of Thrift 
Supervision (OTS) regulations on December 7, 1989, effective date of the new 
capital standards, the Bank must have:  (1) core capital equal to 3% of 
adjusted total assets; (2) tangible capital equal to 1.5% of adjusted total 
assets; and (3) total capital equal to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, which 
includes off-balance sheet items.

On November 28, 1994, the OTS announced its decision to immediately reverse 
its August 1993 interim policy requiring institutions to include unrealized 
gains and losses, net of income taxes, on available-for-sale debt securities 
in regulatory capital.  Because this revised policy applies only to 
regulatory capital, however, institutions must continue to comply with 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115.  ACCOUNTING FOR 
CERTAIN INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES, for financial reporting 
purposes.

At December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1996, the Bank met the foregoing 
minimum tangible, core and risk-based capital levels.

Effective as of June 17, 1996, the Board of Directors and the OTS signed a 
Supervisory Agreement which states that it is of mutual benefit for the Bank 
to do the following:

1. Complete and submit a revised business and capital plan which will:
   a. Increase core capital to 6% as of December 31, 1996
   b. Increase core capital to 7% as of June 30, 1997.

2. Create an asset/liability and investment committee of the Board to oversee 
   and review pricing activities, investment selection and interest rate risk. 

3. Report quarterly on the Bank's operating results and explain variances of 
   actual results to budgeted projections.

This agreement may be suspended in part or in whole by the OTS Regional 
Director.

LIQUIDITY   Liquidity enables the Bank to meet withdrawals of its deposits 
and the needs of its loan customers. The Bank maintains its liquidity 
position through maintenance of cash resources and a core deposit base.  A 
further source is the Bank's ability to borrow funds.  The Bank is a member 
of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) which provides a source of borrowings to 
the Bank for asset and asset/liability matching.  Over the past three years, 
the FHLB has been used as a funding source.  As of September 30, 1996, the 
Bank had no outstanding borrowings at the FHLB and does not anticipate 
significant borrowings from the FHLB in the foreseeable future.

The Bank's liquidity has been stable and adequate over the past three years.  
Although short-term deposits have declined in the last nine months of 1996, 
those reductions have been the result of management's planned restructuring 
of the Bank's asset/liability mix.  The Bank's primary source of funds is 
core consumer deposits and commercial accounts.  This is a significant factor 
to the Bank's liquidity structure, because these funds are generally not 
subject to significant movements resulting from changing interest rates and 
other economic factors.

INFLATION - The general rate of inflation over the past three years, as 
measured by the Consumer Price Index, has not changed significantly.  
Therefore, management does not consider the effects of inflation on the 
Bank's financial position and results of operations to be material.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE-MONTH COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS FOR PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

The Bank's net interest income before provision for credit losses decreased 
by $289,732 or 29.34% for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 
the quarter ended September 30, 1995. The decrease in net interest income 
before provision for credit losses was due to a decrease in interest income 
of $507,120 or 21.53%, which was caused primarily by the recognition in 1995 
of deferred interest income in the amount of $365,310 resulting from the 
early payoff of a previously restructured loan.  In addition, interest income 
on U.S. government agency and other securities decreased by $47,892 or 39.28% 
due to significant maturities of those securities during the quarter ended 
September 30, 1996.  In addition, interest income on mortgage-backed 
securities decreased by $178,522 or 17.88% in the quarter ended September 30, 
1996 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995, primarily due to the 
high levels of principal prepayments on those investment securities since the 
period ended September 30, 1995.

A decrease of $222,158 or 16.32% in interest expense on deposits is the 
result of a decrease in volume and rates paid on deposits as a direct result 
of management's overall strategy related to the asset/liability mix of the 
Bank and their efforts to develop a more diversified and lower cost deposit 
base all of which entailed declines in the average interest rates paid on 
interest bearing accounts and the resulting decline in interest bearing 
deposits.

The Bank experienced an increase in loans receivable in the third quarter of 
1996, as discussed under FINANCIAL CONDITION herein which resulted in a net 
increase of $28,967 in management's estimates relative to the provision for 
credit losses charged as compared to no provision in the third quarter of 
1995 when the Bank's loan portfolio declined $1,900,153 during the quarter 
then ended.

                                      F-15

<PAGE>

Non-interest income increased by $15,886 or 8.48% for the quarter ended 
September 30, 1996 as compared to the same quarter in 1995. The increase was 
primarily due to $13,876 increase in other fee income charged for various 
services provided to customers and non-customers of the Bank.

The increase in non-interest expenses of $749,284 or 86.04% as compared to 
the same period in 1995 was due primarily to the one-time charge of $761,686 
for the SAIF Special Assessment charged on September 30, 1996 which is to be 
paid in November 1996.  Compensation and employee benefit expenses increased 
by $32,834 or 8.91% as a result of the opening of a Loan Production Office 
during that Quarter in Rio Rancho, New Mexico.  These increases were 
partially offset by a decrease in real estate operations expenses of $40,610 
or 99.20% for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the quarter 
ended September 30, 1995 which was primarily attributable to reductions in 
real estate owned ("REO") during 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.

NINE-MONTH COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS FOR PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 decreased by 
$822,831 or 12.74% and interest expense decreased by $458,107 or 11.24% for 
the same period in 1995 to produce a decrease in net interest income before 
provision for credit losses of $364,724 or 15.30% as compared to the nine 
months ended September 30, 1995.  The decrease in net interest income before 
provision for credit losses in 1996 was caused primarily by an early 
recognition in 1995 of $365,310 of deferred interest income as a result of 
the early payoff of a previously restructured loan. In addition, interest 
income on U.S. government agency and other securities and mortgage-backed 
securities declined $121,204 or 31.13% and $444,864 or 14.39% respectively, 
all of which were the result of lower levels of outstanding investment caused 
by significant maturities and prepayments of such securities during the nine 
months ended September 30, 1996.

The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 
was a credit of $6,775 compared to no provision for the nine month period 
ended September 30, 1995.  The net credit resulted from reductions in the 
allowance for credit losses in early 1996 as a result of management's 
revision of previous estimates related to necessary allowances.  These 
reductions in the allowance for credit losses were offset subsequent to the 
first quarter of 1996 by additional charges to the allowance which were 
caused primarily by increased levels of lending.

Non-interest income for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 
decreased $16,217 or 2.67% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 
1995, and non-interest expense increased by $697,606 or 26.62% during the 
nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same time period in 
1995.  The decline in non-interest income was primarily the result of other 
income declines which were partially offset by an increase in loans 
held-for-sale which reflects higher levels of loans sold into the secondary 
markets during 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.  The increase in 
non-interest expense was due primarily to the one-time charge of $761,686 for 
the SAIF Special Assessment, included in federal insurance expenses.  Federal 
insurance expense increases were partially offset by a $19,333 or 33.73% 
decrease in REO expenses.  The decline was attributable to reductions in the 
level of REO during 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. In addition, 
professional fee expenses decreased by $74,984 or 34.48% for the nine months 
ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the

nine months ended September 30, 1995 as a result of reduced activities of the

ITEM 15.   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     The Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") contains provisions that 
allow indemnification of the directors, officers and employees of the Company 
and any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries. To be entitled to 
indemnification, it must be determined that, in general terms, the person 
acted in good faith and in a manner believed to be in, or not opposed to, the 
best interests of Company and, with respect to a criminal action, had no 
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  Further, the 
DGCL provides that to the extent a director, officer or employee is 
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of an action, the Company 
shall indemnify such person against expenses actually and reasonably 
incurred.  Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended, both the Bank 
and the Company would be prohibited from paying any indemnification with 
respect to any liability or legal expense incurred by a director, officer or 
employee as result of an action or proceeding by a federal banking agency 
resulting in a civil money penalty or certain other remedies against such 
person.

     The Board of Directors has approved certain agreements with the 
Company's directors and officers relating to indemnification of directors and 
officers.  Such agreements have been entered into with each director and 
officer.  The agreements provide for indemnification of directors and 
officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, including advancement of 
litigation expenses where appropriate.

     Insurance is maintained on a regular basis (and not specifically in 
connection with this offering) against liabilities arising on the part of the 
directors and officers out of their performance in such capacities or arising 
on the part of the Company out of its foregoing indemnification provisions, 
subject to certain exclusions and to the policy limits.

ITEM 17.   UNDERTAKINGS.

           The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

           (1) that, for purposes of determining any liability under the 
Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report 
pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual 
report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that 
is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to 
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, 
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the 
initial bona fide offering thereof;

           (2) to supplement the prospectus, after the expiration of the 
subscription period, to set forth the results of the subscription offer, the 
transactions by the underwriters during the subscription period, the amount 
of unsubscribed securities to be purchased by the underwriters, and the terms 
of any subsequent reoffering thereof.  If any public offering by the 
underwriters is to be made on terms differing from those set forth on the 
cover page of the prospectus, a post-effective amendment will be filed to set 
forth the terms of such offering;

           (3) to deliver, or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to 
each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report 
to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and 
furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or rule 
14c-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial 
information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X are not 
set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each 
person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report 
that is specifically incorporated by reference in the prospectus to provide 
such interim financial information.

           (4) to file, during any period in which it offers or sells 
securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

                 (i) Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of 
the Securities Act;

                (ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, 
individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information 
in the registration statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase 
or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of 
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any 
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range 
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant 
to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price 
represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price 
set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective 
registration statement.

                                      II-3

<PAGE>

               (iii) Include any additional or changed material information 
on the plan of distribution.

           (5) that, for determining liability under the Securities Act, to 
treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the 
securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the 
initial bona fide offering.

           (6) to file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration 
any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

           (7) for determining any liability under the Securities Act, to 
treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of 
this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a 
form of prospectus filed by the small business issuer under Rule 424(b)(1), 
or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration 
statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective.

           (8) that, for determining any liability under the Securities Act, 
to treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as 
a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration 
statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial 
bona fide offering those securities.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons 
of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or 
otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of 
the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public 
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the 
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than 
the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, 
officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful 
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, 
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being 
registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its 
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a 
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification 
by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed 
by the final adjudication of such issue.

         Re: Registration Statement of Form S-2 - Rights Offering to 
             Existing Shareholders

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel for Access Anytime Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware 
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration by the 
Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 732,198 shares of 
Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), to be sold 
initially in a rights offering to existing shareholders pursuant to a 
Registration Statement on Form S-2 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").

     We have examined originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of 
such corporate records of the Company, certificates of public officials, 
certificates of officers and representatives of the Company and other 
documents as we have deemed necessary as a reasonable basis for the opinions 
hereinafter expressed.  In our examination we have assumed the genuineness of 
all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as 
originals and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to 
us as copies.  As to various questions of fact material to such opinions we 
have, when relevant facts were not independently established, relied upon 
certifications by officers of the Company and other appropriate persons and 
statements contained in the Registration Statement.

    Based upon the foregoing and having regard to legal considerations which 
we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that when (i) the Registration 
Statement becomes effective, (ii) the consideration as determined by the 
Company's Board of Directors to be paid for the shares by the persons 
purchasing the Common Stock has been paid by such persons, and (iii) the 
shares of Common Stock have been sold pursuant to the offering as described 
in the Registration Statement, the Common Stock so sold will be duly 
authorized, legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.



<PAGE>


     We hereby consent to the reference to this firm under the heading "Legal 
Matters" in the Prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement 
and to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5 to the Registration Statement. 

                                              Very truly yours,

                                              KELEHER & McLEOD, P.A.
