stock offering fully, you should read carefully this entire document, including
the consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated
financial statements of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB. References is this
document to "we", "us", and "our" refer to Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB or

The Companies
WSB Holding Company
807 Middle St.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 37643-3378
(412) 231-7297
WSB Holding Company is not an operating company and has not engaged in
any significant business to date. It was formed in June 1997 as a
Pennsylvania-chartered corporation to be the holding company for Workingmens
Savings Bank, FSB. The holding company structure will provide greater
flexibility in terms of operations, expansion and diversification. See page ^
36.
Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB
807 Middle St.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 37643-3378
(412) 231-7297
Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB began operations in 1881 under the name,
"Workingmens Premium and Loan Association of Allegheny County." We are a
community and customer oriented federal mutual savings bank. We provide
financial services to individuals, families and small business. Historically, we
have emphasized residential mortgage lending, primarily originating one- to
four-family mortgage loans. At March 31, 1997 we had total assets of $33.1
million, deposits of $27.9 million, and total equity of $2.0 million. After the
completion of the conversion, we will change our name to "Workingmens Bank." See
pages ^ 37 to ^ 52.
The Stock Offering
Between 212,500 and 287,500 shares of common stock are being offered at
$10 per share. As a result of changes in market and financial conditions prior
to completion of the ^ conversion or to fill the order of our employee stock
ownership plan and subject to the Office of Thrift Supervision approval, the
offering may be increased to 330,600 shares without further notice to you. In
such event, you will not have the opportunity to change or cancel any stock
order previously delivered to us.
Stock Purchases
The shares of common stock will be offered on the basis of priorities.
As a depositor or borrower member, you will receive subscription rights to
purchase the shares. The shares will be offered first in a Subscription Offering
and any remaining shares ^ may be offered in a Community Offering, Public
Offering or Syndicated Public Offering. See pages ^ 16 to ^ 18.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(iii)
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Subscription Rights
You may not sell or assign your subscription rights. Any transfer of
subscription rights is prohibited by law.
The Offering Range and Determination of the Price Per Share
The offering range is based on an independent appraisal of the ^
estimated market value of the common stock by Ferguson & Company, ^ an appraisal
firm experienced in appraisals of savings institutions. Ferguson has estimated,
that in its opinion as of June 6, 1997 the aggregate pro forma market value of
the common stock ranged between $2,125,000 and $2,875,000 (with a mid-point of
$2,500,000). The ^ estimated market value of the shares is our estimated market
value after giving effect to the sale of shares in this offering.
The appraisal was based in part upon our financial condition and
operations and the effect of the additional capital raised by the sale of common
stock in this offering. The $10.00 price per share was determined by our board
of directors and is the price most commonly used in stock offerings involving
conversions of mutual savings institutions. The independent appraisal will be
updated prior to the consummation of the ^ conversion. If the ^ estimated market
value of the ^ common stock is either below $2,125,000 or above $3,306,000, you
will be notified and will have the opportunity to modify or cancel your order.
See pages ^ 21 to ^ 22.
Termination of the Offering
The Subscription Offering will terminate at 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time,
on __________ ____, 1997. The Community Offering or Public Offering, if any, may
terminate at any time without notice but no later than __________ ____, 1997,
without approval by the OTS.
Benefits to Management from the Offering
Our full-time employees will participate in the offering through
individual purchases and purchases of stock by our employee stock ownership
plan, which is a form of retirement plan. We also intend to implement a
restricted stock plan and a stock option plan following completion of the ^
conversion, which ^ may benefit the President and other officers and directors.
However, the restricted stock plan and stock option plan may not be adopted
until after the ^ conversion and are subject to stockholder approval and
compliance with OTS regulations. ^ Officers and directors may be granted common
stock under a restricted stock plan without payment.
Use of the Proceeds Raised from the Sale of Common Stock
WSB Holding Company will use ^ a portion of the net proceeds from the
stock offerings to purchase all the common stock to be issued by us in the ^
conversion and to make a loan to our employee stock ownership plan to fund its
purchase of stock in the ^ conversion. The balance of the funds will be retained
as WSB Holding Company's initial capitalization. See page ^ 4.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(iv)
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends
WSB does not expect to establish a cash dividend policy during the
first year following the ^ conversion.
Market for the Common Stock
Since the size of the offering is relatively small, it is unlikely that
an active and liquid trading market for the trading market will develop and be
maintained. Investors should have a long-term investment intent. Persons
purchasing shares may not be able to sell their shares when they desire or sell
them at a price equal to or above $10.00. See page ^ 5.
Important Risks in Owning WSB Holding Company's Common Stock
Before you decide to purchase stock in the offering, you should read
the Risk Factors section on pages 1-3 of this document.

<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information in this document, you should
consider carefully the following risk factors in evaluating an investment in our
common stock.
Asset Quality
At March 31, 1997, we had loans totalling $769,000 in our loan
portfolio that were classified as nonperforming loans, on which we are receiving
no interest. Of this amount, payment of $736,000 was due from one borrower on
June 30, 1997 and was not received. This borrower held 16 individual loans, that
ranged from $30,000 to $100,000, and were secured by one- to four-family
residences in the city of Pittsburgh. Subsequent to June 30, 1997, this borrower
declared bankruptcy. The bankruptcy proceeding might delay foreclosure
proceedings for a prolonged period of time. If so, we will lose the ability to
use any monies that we might receive from the sale of these properties and there
is no guarantee that the value of these properties will be maintained or that
the value of the properties received from foreclosure will be sufficient to pay
the amounts outstanding on these loans. While we believe our loan loss allowance
is adequate, there can be no assurance that our allowance for loan loss will be
adequate to cover significant losses that we might incur in the future. Also,
risks associated with these loans and losses incurred on these loans might
result in higher provisions for loan losses in the future. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --
Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 --
Provision for Loan Losses."
Lack of Active Market for Common Stock
Due to the small size of the offering, it is highly unlikely that an
active trading market will develop and be maintained. If an active market does
not develop, you may not be able to sell your shares promptly or perhaps at all,
or sell your shares at a price equal to or above the price you paid for the
shares. The common stock may not be appropriate as a short-term investment. See
"Market for the Common Stock."
Potential Impact of Changes in Interest Rates and the Current Interest Rate
Environment
Our ability to make a profit, like that of most financial institutions,
is substantially dependent on our net interest income, which is the difference
between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets (such as
mortgage ^ loans and investment securities) and the interest expense we pay on
our interest-bearing liabilities (such as deposits and ^ borrowings). All of our
mortgage loans have rates of interest which are fixed for the term of the loan
("fixed ^ rate") and are originated with terms of 15 years, while deposit
accounts have significantly shorter terms to maturity. Because our
interest-earning assets generally have fixed ^ rates of interest and have longer
effective maturities than our interest-bearing liabilities, the yield on our
interest-earning assets generally will adjust more slowly to changes in interest
rates than the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities. As a result, our net
interest income will be adversely affected by material and prolonged increases
in interest rates. In addition, rising interest rates may adversely affect our
earnings because there might be a lack of customer demand for loans. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Asset/Liability Management."
Changes in interest rates also can affect the average life of loans and
mortgage-backed securities. Historically lower interest rates in recent periods
have resulted in increased prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities,
as borrowers refinanced their mortgages in order to reduce their borrowing
1
<PAGE>
cost. Under these circumstances, we are subject to reinvestment risk to the
extent that we are not able to reinvest such prepayments at rates which are
comparable to the rates on the prepaid loans or securities.
^
Decreased Return on Average Equity and Increased Expenses Immediately After
Conversion
As a result of the ^ conversion, our equity will increase
substantially. Our expenses also will increase because of the costs associated
with our employee stock ownership plan, restricted stock ownership plan, and the
costs of being a public company. Because of the increases in our equity and
expenses, our return on equity may decrease as compared to our performance in
previous years. Initially, we intend to invest the net proceeds in short term
investments which generally have lower yields than residential mortgage loans. A
lower return on equity could reduce the trading price of our shares. At June 30,
1996 and 1995, our return on average equity was 1.65% and 7.42%, respectively.
Because of our one-time special assessment expense for deposit insurance and our
increased pension expense, our return on average equity was reduced to a
negative 6.12% at March 31, 1997. See "Use of Proceeds."
Anti-Takeover Provisions and Statutory Provisions That Could Discourage Hostile
Acquisitions of Control
Provisions in WSB's articles of incorporation and bylaws, the general
corporation law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and certain federal
regulations may make it difficult and expensive to pursue a tender offer, change
in control or takeover attempt which ^ is opposed by our management and the
board of directors. As a result, stockholders who might desire to participate in
such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. Such provisions will
also render the removal of the current board of directors or management of WSB
more difficult. In addition, these provisions may reduce the trading price of
our stock. These provisions include: restrictions on the acquisition of WSB's
equity securities and limitations on voting rights; the classification of the
terms of the members of the board of directors; certain provisions relating to
the meeting of stockholders; denial of cumulative voting by stockholders in the
election of directors; the issuance of preferred stock and additional shares of
common stock without shareholder approval; and supermajority provisions for the
approval of certain business combinations.
See "Restrictions on Acquisitions of WSB Holding Company"
Possible Voting Control by Directors and Officers
The proposed purchases of the common stock by our directors, officers
and employee stock ownership plan, as well as the potential acquisition of the
common stock through the stock option plan and restricted stock plan, could make
it difficult to obtain majority support for stockholder proposals which are
opposed by ^ our management and board of directors. Based upon the midpoint of
the estimated valuation range, our officers and directors intend to purchase
approximately 31% of the common shares offered in the conversion. In addition,
the voting of those shares could ^ block the approval of transactions (i.e.,
business combinations and amendment to our articles of incorporation and bylaws)
requiring the approval of 80% of the stockholders under the WSB's articles of
incorporation. See "Proposed Purchases by Directors and Officers," "Management
of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB -- Executive Compensation," "Description of
Capital Stock," and "Restrictions on Acquisitions of WSB Holding Company."
Possible Dilutive Effect of RSP and Stock Options
If the ^ conversion is completed and shareholders approve the
restricted stock plan and stock option plan, we will issue stock to our officers
and directors through these plans. If the shares for the restricted stock plan
and stock options are issued from our authorized but unissued stock, your
ownership
2
<PAGE>
percentage could be cumulatively diluted by up to approximately 12.3% and the
trading price of our stock may be reduced. See "Pro Forma Data," "Management of
Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB -- Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans," and "--
Restricted Stock Plan."
Financial Institution Regulation and Future of the Thrift Industry
We are subject to extensive regulation, supervision, and examination by
the OTS and FDIC. Bills have been introduced ^ in Congress that could
consolidate the OTS with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC")
and require the Bank to adopt a commercial ^ charter. If we become a commercial
bank, our investment authority and the ability of WSB to engage in diversified
activities may be limited, which could affect our value and profitability. See
"Regulation."
Restrictions on Repurchase of Shares
Generally, during the first year following the ^ conversion, WSB may
not repurchase its shares. During each of the second and third years following
the ^ conversion, WSB may repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding shares. During
those periods, if we decide that additional repurchases would be a good use of
funds, we would not be able to do so, without obtaining OTS approval. There is
no assurance that OTS approval would be given. See "The Conversion --
Restrictions on Repurchase of Stock."
PROPOSED PURCHASES BY DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The following table sets forth the approximate purchases of common
stock by each director and executive officer and their associates in the ^
conversion. Shares purchased by officers and directors in the conversion may not
be sold for at least one year . The table assumes that 250,000 shares (the
midpoint of the estimated valuation range, "EVR") of the common stock will be

subscriptions in all categories. However, officers and directors and their
associates may not buy more than 35% of the total amount of shares sold in the ^

USE OF PROCEEDS
^ The amount of proceeds from the sale of the common stock in the
conversion will depend upon the total number of shares actually sold, and the
actual expenses of the conversion. As a result, the actual net proceeds from the
sale of the common stock cannot be determined until the conversion is completed.
Based on the sale of 250,000 shares of common stock (the midpoint of the
estimated valuation range), the net proceeds from the ^ sale of the common stock
are estimated to be approximately $2,220,000. WSB has received OTS approval to
purchase all of the capital stock ^ of Workingmens Bank to be issued in the
conversion in exchange for the amount necessary to increase the Workingmens Bank
tangible regulatory capital ratio to 10%. The remaining net proceeds will be
retained by WSB. Based on the foregoing assumption, and the purchase of 8% of
the shares to be issued in the conversion by the ESOP, it is anticipated that
the Workingmens Bank would receive $1,744,000 in cash and the WSB would retain
$276,000 in cash and $200,000 in the form of a note payable from the ESOP.
Although there are no current plans, the net proceeds subsequently may
be used to diversify activities. The net proceeds may also serve as a source of
funds for the payment of dividends to stockholders or for the repurchase of the
shares. A portion of the net proceeds may also be used to fund the purchase of
4% of the shares for a restricted stock plan (the RSP) which is anticipated to
be adopted following the ^ conversion. See "Pro Forma Data."
The funds we ^ receive from the sale of our capital stock to WSB will
be added to our general funds and be used for general corporate purposes
including: (i) investment in mortgages and other loans, (ii) investment in U.S.
Government and federal agency securities, (iii) investment in mortgage-backed
securities, (iv) funding loan commitments or (v) repaying FHLB advances.
However, initially we intend to invest the net proceeds in short-term
investments until we can deploy the proceeds into higher yielding loans. The
funds added to our capital will further strengthen our capital position.
^
The net proceeds may vary because the total expenses of the ^
conversion may be more or less than those estimated. We expect our estimated
expenses to be $280,000. Our estimated net proceeds will range from $1,845,000
to $2,595,000 (or up to $3,026,000 ^ in the event the maximum of the estimated
valuation range is increased to $3,306,000). See "Pro Forma Data." The net
proceeds will also vary if expenses are different or if the number of shares to
be issued in the ^ conversion is adjusted to reflect a change in our estimated
pro forma market value. Payments for shares made through withdrawals from
existing deposit accounts with us will not result in the receipt of new funds
for investment by us but will result in a reduction of our liabilities and
interest expense as funds are transferred from interest-bearing certificates or
accounts.
DIVIDENDS
Upon ^ conversion, WSB's board of directors will have the authority to
declare dividends on the shares, subject to statutory and regulatory
requirements. WSB does not expect to establish a cash dividend policy during the
first year after the ^ conversion. Declarations of dividends by the board of
directors will depend upon a number of factors, including: (i) the amount of the
net proceeds retained by WSB in the ^ conversion, (ii) investment opportunities
available, (iii) capital requirements, (iv) regulatory limitations, (v) results
of operations and financial condition, (vi) tax considerations, and (vii)
general economic conditions. Upon review of such considerations, the board may
authorize future dividends if it deems such payment appropriate and in
compliance with applicable law and regulation.
4
<PAGE>
For a period of one year following the completion of the ^ conversion, we ^ do
not expect to pay any dividends that would be ^ treated for tax purposes as a
return of capital nor take any actions to pursue or propose such dividends. In
addition, there can be no assurance that regular or special dividends will be
paid, or, if paid, will continue to be paid. See "Historical and Pro Forma
Capital Compliance," "The Conversion -- Effects of Conversion to Stock Form on
Savers and Borrowers of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB -- Liquidation Account"
and "Regulation -- Dividend and Other Capital Distribution Limitations."
WSB is not subject to OTS regulatory restrictions on the payment of
dividends to its stockholders although the source of such dividends will be
dependent in part upon the receipt of dividends from us. WSB is subject,
however, to the requirements of Pennsylvania law, which generally limit the
payment of dividends to amounts that will not affect the ability of WSB, after
the dividend has been distributed, to pay its debts in the ordinary course of
business.
In addition to the foregoing, the portion of our earnings which has
been appropriated for bad debt reserves and deducted for federal income tax
purposes cannot be used by us to pay cash dividends to WSB without the payment
of federal income taxes by us at the then current income tax rate on the amount
deemed distributed, which would include the amount of any federal income taxes
attributable to the distribution. See "Taxation -- Federal Taxation" and Note J
to ^ our consolidated financial statements. WSB does not contemplate any
distribution by us that would result in a recapture of our bad debt reserve or
otherwise create federal tax liabilities.
MARKET FOR THE COMMON STOCK
As a newly organized company, WSB has never issued capital stock, and
consequently there is no established market for the common stock. Following the
completion of the offering, it is anticipated that the common stock will be
traded on the over-the-counter market with quotations available through the OTC
Electronic Bulletin Board. Trident ^ is expected to make a market in the common
stock. Making a market may include the solicitation of potential buyers and
sellers in order to match buy and sell orders. However, Trident ^ will not be
subject to any obligation with respect to such efforts. If the common stock
cannot be quoted and traded on the OTC Bulletin Board it is expected that the
transactions in the common stock will be reported in the pink sheets of the
National Quotation Bureau, Inc.
The development of an active trading market depends on the existence of
willing buyers and sellers. Due to the small size of the offering, it is highly
unlikely that an active trading market will develop and be maintained. You could
have difficulty disposing of your shares and you should not view the shares as a
short-term investment. You may not be able to sell your shares at a price equal
to or above the price you paid for the shares.

CAPITALIZATION
The following table presents, as of March 31, 1997, our historical
capitalization and the consolidated capitalization of WSB after giving effect to
the ^ conversion and the other assumptions set forth below and under "Pro Forma

accounts for the purchase of stock have not been reflected in these

after the ^conversion in the event of implementation of the Option Plan
or RSP. See "Management of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB - Proposed

(3) Assumes that 8% and 4% of the shares issued in the ^ conversion will be
purchased by the ESOP and RSP, respectively. No shares will be
purchased by the RSP in the ^ conversion. It is assumed on a pro forma
basis that the RSP will be adopted by the board of directors, approved
by stockholders of WSB, and reviewed by the OTS. It is assumed that the
RSP will purchase common stock in the open market within one year of
the ^ conversion in order to give an indication of its effect on
capitalization. The pro forma presentation does not show the impact of:
(a) results of operations after the ^ conversion, (b) changing market
prices of shares of common stock after the ^ conversion, or (c) a
smaller than 4% or 8% purchase by the RSP or ESOP, respectively.
Assumes that the funds used to acquire the ESOP shares will be borrowed
from WSB for a ten year term at the prime rate as published in The Wall
Street Journal. For an estimate of the impact of the ESOP on earnings,
see "Pro Forma Data." The Bank intends to make contributions to the
ESOP sufficient to service and ultimately retire its debt. The amount
to be acquired by the ESOP and RSP is reflected as a reduction of
stockholders' equity. The issuance of authorized but unissued shares
for the RSP in an amount equal to 4% of the outstanding shares of
common stock will have the effect of diluting existing stockholders'
interests by 3.9%. There can be no assurance that stockholder approval
of the RSP will be obtained. See "Management of Workingmens Savings
Bank, FSB - Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans - Restricted Stock
Plan."
(4) The equity of the Bank will be substantially restricted after the ^
conversion. See "Dividends," "Regulation Dividends and Other Capital
Distribution Limitations," "The Conversion - Effects of Conversion to
Stock Form on Depositors and Borrowers of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB
- Liquidation Account" and Note R to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.

<PAGE>
PRO FORMA DATA
The actual net proceeds from the sale of the common stock cannot be determined
until the ^ conversion is completed. However, net proceeds are currently
estimated to be between $1.8 million and $3.0 million at the minimum and
maximum, as adjusted, of the EVR, based upon the following assumptions: (i) 8%
of the shares will be sold to the ESOP and ^ 77,500 shares will be sold to
officers, directors, and members of their immediate families; (ii) Trident will
have received sales fees ^ including expenses of $85,000; (iii) no shares will
be sold in a Public Offering; (iv) other ^ conversion expenses, excluding the
sales fees paid to Trident, will be $195,000; and (v) 4% of the shares will be
sold to the RSP. Because management of the Savings Bank presently intends to
adopt the RSP within the first year following the ^ conversion, a purchase by
the RSP in the ^ conversion has been included with the pro forma data to give an
indication of the effect of a 4% purchase by the RSP, at a $10.00 per share
purchase price in the market, even though the RSP does not currently exist and
is prohibited by OTS regulation from purchasing shares in the ^ conversion. The
pro forma presentation does not show the effect of: (a) results of operations
after the ^ conversion, (b) changing market prices of the shares after the ^
conversion, (c) less than a 4% purchase by the RSP, or (d) dilutive effects of
newly issued shares under the restricted stock plan and the stock option plan
(see footnotes 2 and 3).
The following table sets forth, our historical net earnings and stockholders'
equity prior to the ^ conversion and the pro forma consolidated net earnings and
stockholders' equity of WSB following the ^ conversion. Unaudited pro forma
consolidated net earnings and stockholders' equity have been calculated for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 and fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 as if the
common stock to be issued in the ^ conversion had been sold at July 1, 1996 and
July 1, 1995, and the estimated net proceeds had been invested at 6%,
respectively for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 and the nine months ended
March 31, 1997, which was approximately equal to the one-year U.S. Treasury bill
rate at March 31, 1997. The one-year U.S. Treasury bill rate, rather than an
arithmetic average of the average yield on interest-earning assets and average
rate paid on deposits, has been used to estimate income on net proceeds because
it is believed that the one-year U.S. Treasury bill rate is a more accurate
estimate of the rate that would be obtained on an investment of net proceeds
from the offering. In calculating pro forma income, an effective state and
federal income tax rate of 33% has been assumed for the respective periods,
resulting in an after tax yield of 4.02% for the nine months ended March 31,
1997 and the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. Withdrawals from deposit accounts
for the purchase of shares are not reflected in the pro forma adjustments. The
computations are based upon the assumptions that 212,500 shares (minimum of EVR)
shares, 250,000 (midpoint of EVR), 287,500 shares (maximum of EVR) or 330,600
shares (maximum, as adjusted, of the EVR) are sold at a price of $10.00 per
share. As discussed under "Use of Proceeds," ^ a portion of the net ^ proceeds^
that WSB will receive will be loaned to the ESOP to fund its anticipated
purchase of 8% of shares issued in the ^ conversion. It is assumed that the
yield on the net proceeds of the ^ conversion retained by WSB will be the same
as the yield on the net proceeds of the ^ conversion transferred to us.
Historical and pro forma per share amounts have been calculated by dividing
historical and pro forma amounts by the indicated number of shares. Per share
amounts have been computed as if the shares had been outstanding at the
beginning of the periods or at the dates shown, but without any adjustment of
per share historical or pro forma stockholders' equity to reflect the earnings
on the estimated net proceeds.
The stockholders' equity information is not intended to represent the fair
market value of the shares, or the current value of our assets or liabilities,
or the amounts, if any, that would be available for distribution to stockholders
in the event of liquidation. For additional information regarding the
liquidation account, see "The Conversion -- Certain Effects of the Conversion to
Stock Form on Savers and Borrowers of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB --
Liquidation Account" and Note R to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The
pro forma income derived from the
7
<PAGE>
assumptions set forth above should not be considered indicative of the actual
results of our operations for any period. Such pro forma data may be materially
affected by a change in the price per share or number of shares to be issued in
the Conversion and by other factors. For information regarding investment of the
proceeds see "Use of Proceeds" and "The Conversion -- Stock Pricing" and "--
Change in Number of Shares to be Issued in the Conversion."

- --------------------
(1) Assumes 8% of the shares sold in the ^ conversion are purchased by the
ESOP, and that the funds used to purchase such shares are borrowed from
WSB. The approximate amount expected to be borrowed by the ESOP is not
reflected as a liability but is reflected as a reduction of capital. We
intend to make annual contributions to the ESOP over a ten year period
in an amount at least equal to the principal and interest requirement
of the debt. The pro forma net income assumes: (i) that 1,700, 2,000,
2,300, and 2,645 shares at the minimum, mid-point, maximum and maximum,
as adjusted of the EVR, were committed to be released during the year
ended June 30, 1996 and the nine months ended March 31, 1997 at an
average fair value of $10.00 per share in accordance with Statement of
Position ("SOP") 93-6 of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants ("AICPA"); (ii) the effective tax rate was 33% for such
periods; and (iii) only the ESOP shares committed to be released were
considered outstanding for purposes of the per share net earnings. The
pro forma stockholders' equity per share calculation assumes all ESOP
shares were outstanding, regardless of whether such shares would have
been released. Because WSB will be providing the ESOP loan, only
principal payments on the ESOP loan are reflected as employee
compensation and benefits expense. As a result, to the extent the value
of the shares appreciates over time, compensation expense related to
the ESOP will increase. For purposes of the preceding tables, it was
assumed that a ratable portion of the ESOP shares purchased in the ^
conversion were committed to be released during the period ended March
31, 1997 and June 30, 1996. See Note 5 below. If it is assumed that all
of the ESOP shares were included in the calculation of earnings per
share for the period ended at March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1996,
earnings per share would have been ^ $(.30), $(.22), $(.17) and $(.12),
and $.35, $.34, $.33, and $.32, ^ for the period ended March 31, 1997
and June 30, 1996, respectively, based on the sale of shares at the
minimum, midpoint, maximum and the maximum, as adjusted, of the EVR.
See "Management of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB - Other Benefits -
Employee Stock Ownership Plan."
(2) Assumes issuance to the RSP of 8,500, 10,000, 11,500, and 13,224 shares
at the minimum, mid-point, maximum, and maximum, as adjusted of the
EVR. The assumption in the pro forma calculation is that (i) shares
were purchased by WSB following the ^ conversion, (ii) the purchase
price for the shares purchased by the RSP was equal to the purchase
price of $10 per share and (iii) 20% of the amount contributed was an
amortized expense during such period. Such amount does not reflect
possible increases or decreases in the value of such stock relative to
the Purchase Price. As we accrue compensation expense to reflect the
five year vesting period of such shares pursuant to the RSP, the charge
against capital will be reduced accordingly. Implementation of the RSP
within one year of ^ conversion would require regulatory and
stockholder approval at a meeting of our stockholders to be held no
earlier than six months after the ^ conversion. If the shares to be
purchased by the RSP are assumed at July 1, 1996 and July 1, 1995, to
be newly issued shares purchased from WSB by the RSP at the Purchase
Price, at the minimum, midpoint, maximum and maximum, as adjusted, of
the EVR, pro forma stockholders' equity per share would have been ^
$16.24, $15.08, $14.22, and $13.47, and $16.65, $15.43, $14.52, and
$13.73 at March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1996, respectively, and pro forma
earnings per share would have been ^ $(.24), $(.18), $(.12), and (.08),
and $.39, ^ $.38, $.37, and $.36, for the nine months ended March 31,
1997, and the year ended June 30, 1996, respectively. As a result of
the RSP, stockholders' ownership interests ^ could be diluted by up to
approximately 3.9%. See "Management of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB -
Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans - Restricted Stock Plan."
(3) Assumes that following the consummation of the ^ conversion, WSB will
adopt the Option Plan, which if implemented within one year of ^
conversion would be subject to regulatory review and board of director
and stockholder approval, and that such plan would be considered and
voted upon at a meeting of WSB stockholders to be held no earlier than
six months after the ^ conversion. Under the Option Plan, employees and
directors could be granted options to purchase an aggregate amount of
shares equal to 10% of the shares issued in the ^ conversion at an
exercise price equal to the market price of the shares on the date of
grant. In the event the shares issued under the Option Plan were ^
newly issued rather than purchased in the open market, the ownership
interests of existing stockholders ^ could be diluted by up to
approximately 9.1%. At the minimum, midpoint, maximum and the maximum,
as adjusted, of the EVR, if all shares under the Option Plan were newly
issued at the beginning of the respective periods and the exercise
price
10
<PAGE>
for the option shares were equal to the Purchase Price, the number of
outstanding shares would increase to 233,750, 275,000, 316,250, and
363,660, respectively, pro forma stockholders' equity per share would
have been ^ $16.25, $15.16, $14.36, and $13.63 and $16.66, $15.49,
$14.64, and $13.89 at March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1996, respectively,
and pro forma earnings per share would have been ^ $(.23), $(.17),
$(.12), and $.08), and $.36, $.35, $.34, and $.32, respectively.
(4) Consolidated stockholders' equity represents the excess of the carrying
value of the assets of the over its liabilities. The calculations are
based upon the number of shares issued in the ^ conversion, without
giving effect to SOP 93-6. The amounts shown do not reflect the federal
income tax consequences of the potential restoration to income of the
tax bad debt reserves for income tax purposes, which would be required
in the event of liquidation. The amounts shown also do not reflect the
amounts required to be distributed in the event of liquidation to
eligible depositors from the liquidation account which will be
established upon the consummation of the ^ conversion. Pro forma
stockholders' equity information is not intended to represent the fair
market value of the shares, the current value of our assets or
liabilities or the amounts, if any, that would be available for
distribution to stockholders in the event of liquidation. Such pro
forma data may be materially affected by a change in the number of
shares to be sold in the ^ conversion and by other factors.
(5) Pro forma net income per share calculations include the number of shares
assumed to be sold in the ^ conversion and, in accordance with SOP 93-6,
exclude ESOP shares which would not have been released during the
period. Accordingly, 15,300, 18,000, 20,700, and 23,803 shares have been
subtracted from the shares assumed to be sold at the minimum, mid-point,
maximum, and maximum, as adjusted, of the EVR, respectively, and 1,700,
2,000, 2,300, and 2,645 shares are assumed to be outstanding at the
minimum, mid-point, maximum, and maximum, as adjusted of the EVR. See
Note 1 above.

THE CONVERSION
Our board of directors and the OTS have approved the Plan subject to
the Plan's approval by our members, and subject to the satisfaction of certain
other conditions imposed by the OTS in its approval. OTS approval, however, does
not constitute a recommendation or endorsement of the Plan by the OTS.
General
On May 19, 1997, our board of directors adopted a Plan of Conversion,
pursuant to which we will convert from a federally chartered mutual savings bank
to a federally chartered stock savings bank and become a wholly owned subsidiary
of WSB. The ^ conversion will include adoption of the proposed Federal Stock
charter and Bylaws which will authorize the issuance of capital stock by us.
Under the Plan, our capital stock is being sold to WSB and the common stock of
WSB is being offered to our eligible depositors and members and then to the
public. The ^ conversion will be accounted for at historical cost in a manner
similar to a pooling of interests.
The OTS has approved WSB's application to become a savings and loan
holding company and to acquire all of our common stock to be issued in the ^
conversion. Pursuant to such OTS approval, WSB plans to retain 50% of the net
proceeds from the sale of shares of its common stock and to use the remaining
50% to purchase all of the common stock we will issue in the ^ conversion.
However, if additional benefit plans, such as the RSP, are adopted within one
year and our tangible capital is not equal to or greater than 10% of total
assets at ^ that time, WSB will provide additional capital to us so that
tangible capital equals 10% of total assets to comply with OTS rules requiring
such capital prior to the implementation of the RSP. See "Use of Proceeds."
The shares are first being offered in a Subscription Offering to
holders of subscription rights. To the extent shares of common stock remain
available after the Subscription Offering, shares of common stock may be offered
in a Community Offering or Public Offering. The Community Offering or Public
Offering, if any, may commence anytime subsequent to the commencement of the
Subscription Offering. Shares not subscribed for in the Subscription, Community
and Public Offerings may be offered for sale by WSB in a Syndicated Public
Offering. We have the right, in our sole discretion, to accept or reject, in
whole or in part, any orders to purchase shares of the common stock received in
the Community, Public and Syndicated Public Offering. See "-- Public Offering."
Shares of common stock in an amount equal to our pro forma market value
as a stock savings institution must be sold in order for the ^ conversion to
become effective. The Community Offering, Public Offering or Syndicated Public
Offering must be completed within 45 days after the last day of the Subscription
Offering period unless such period is extended by us with the approval of the
OTS. The Plan provides that the ^ conversion must be completed within 24 months
after the date of the approval of the Plan by our members.
In the event that we are unable to complete the sale of common stock
and effect the ^ conversion within 45 days after the end of the Subscription
Offering, we may request an extension of the period by the OTS. No assurance can
be given that the extension would be granted if requested. Due to the volatile
nature of market conditions, no assurances can be given that our valuation would
not substantially change during any such extension. If the EVR of the shares
must be amended, no assurance can be given that such amended EVR would be
approved by the OTS. Therefore, it is possible that if the ^ conversion
13
<PAGE>
cannot be completed within the requisite period, we may not be permitted to
complete the ^ conversion. A substantial delay caused by an extension of the
period may also significantly increase the expense of the ^ conversion. No sales
of the shares may be completed in the offering unless the Plan is approved by
our members.
The completion of the offering is subject to market conditions and
other factors beyond our control. No assurance can be given as to the length of
time following approval of the Plan at the meeting of our members that will be
required to complete the sale of shares being offered in the ^ conversion. If
delays are experienced, significant changes may occur in our estimated pro forma
market value upon ^ conversion together with corresponding changes in the
offering price and the net proceeds to be realized by us from the sale of the
shares. In the event the ^ conversion is terminated, we will charge all ^
conversion expenses against current income and any funds collected by us in the
offering will be promptly returned, with interest, to each potential investor.
Effects of Conversion to Stock Form on Depositors and Borrowers of Workingmens
Savings Bank, FSB
Voting Rights. Currently in our mutual form, our depositor and certain
borrower members have voting rights and may vote for the election of directors.
Following the ^ conversion, all voting rights will be held solely by
stockholders.
Savings Accounts and Loans. The balances, terms and FDIC insurance
coverage of savings accounts will not be affected by the ^ conversion.
Furthermore, the amounts and terms of loans and obligations of the borrowers
under their individual contractual arrangements with us will not be affected by
the ^ conversion.
Tax Effects. We have received an opinion from our counsel, Malizia,
Spidi, Sloane & Fisch, P.C. on the federal tax consequences of the ^ conversion.
The opinion has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which
this Prospectus is a part and covers those federal tax matters that are material
to the transaction. The opinion provides, in part, that: (i) the ^ conversion
will qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, and no
gain or loss will be recognized by us by reason of the proposed ^ conversion;
(ii) no gain or loss will be recognized by us upon the receipt of money from WSB
for our stock, and no gain or loss will be recognized by WSB upon the receipt of
money for the shares; (iii) our assets will have the same basis before and after
the ^ conversion; (iv) the holding period of our assets will include the period
during which the assets were held by us in our mutual form; (v) no gain or loss
will be recognized by the Eligible Account Holders, Supplemental Eligible
Account Holders, and Other Members upon the issuance to them of withdrawable
savings accounts in us in the stock form in the same dollar amount as their
savings accounts in us in the mutual form plus an interest in the liquidation
account of us in the stock form in exchange for their savings accounts in us in
the mutual form; (vi) provided that the amount to be paid for the shares
pursuant to the subscription rights is equal to the fair market value of such
shares, no gain or loss will be recognized by Eligible Account Holders,
Supplemental Eligible Account Holders, and Other Members under the Plan upon the
distribution to them of nontransferable subscription rights; (vii) the basis of
each account holder's savings accounts after the ^ conversion will be the same
as the basis of his savings accounts prior to the ^ conversion, decreased by the
fair market value of the nontransferable subscription rights received and
increased by the amount, if any, of gain recognized on the exchange; (viii) the
basis of each account holder's interest in the liquidation account will be zero;
(ix) the holding period of the common stock acquired through the exercise of
subscription rights shall begin on the date on which the subscription rights are
exercised; (x) we will succeed to and take into account the earnings and profits
or deficit in earnings and profits of us
14
<PAGE>
as of the date of ^ conversion; (xi) immediately after ^ conversion, we will
succeed to the bad debt reserve accounts ^ previously held by us, and the bad
debt reserves will have the same character in our hands after ^ conversion as if
no distribution or transfer had occurred; and (xii) the creation of the
liquidation account will have no effect on our taxable income.
The opinion from Malizia, Spidi, Sloane & Fisch, P.C. is based in part
on the assumption that the exercise price of the subscription rights will be
approximately equal to the fair market value of those shares at the time of the
completion of the proposed ^ conversion. We have received an opinion of Ferguson
which, based on certain assumptions, concludes that the subscription rights to
be received by Eligible Account Holders and other eligible subscribers do not
have any economic value at the time of distribution or at the time the
subscription rights are exercised. Such opinion is based on the fact that such
rights are: (i) acquired by the recipients without payment therefor, (ii)
non-transferable, (iii) of short duration, and (iv) afford the recipients the
right only to purchase shares at a price equal to their estimated fair market
value, which will be the same price at which shares for which no subscription
right is received in the Subscription Offering will be offered in the Public
Offering. If the subscription rights granted to Eligible Account Holders or
other eligible subscribers are deemed to have an ascertainable value, receipt of
such rights would be taxable only to those Eligible Account Holders or other
eligible subscribers who exercise the subscription rights in an amount equal to
such value (either as a capital gain or ordinary income), and we could recognize
gain on such distribution.
We are also subject to Pennsylvania income taxes and have received an
opinion from Malizia, Spidi, Sloane & Fisch, P.C. that the ^ conversion will be
treated for Pennsylvania state tax purposes similar to the ^ conversion's
treatment for federal tax purposes. The opinion has been filed as an exhibit to
the registration statement to which this Prospectus is a part and covers those
state tax matters that are material to the transaction.
Unlike a private letter ruling, the opinions of Malizia, Spidi, Sloane
& Fisch, P.C. and Ferguson have no binding effect or official status, and no
assurance can be given that the conclusions reached in any of those opinions
would be sustained by a court if contested by the IRS or the Pennsylvania tax
authorities. Eligible Account Holders, Supplemental Eligible Account Holders,
and Other Members are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisers as to
the tax consequences in the event the subscription rights are deemed to have an
ascertainable value.
Liquidation Account. In the unlikely event of our complete liquidation
in our present mutual form, each depositor is entitled to equal distribution of
any of our assets, pro rata to the value of his accounts, remaining after
payment of claims of all creditors (including the claims of all depositors to
the withdrawal value of their accounts). Each depositor's pro rata share of such
remaining assets would be in the same proportion as the value of his deposit
accounts was to the total value of all deposit accounts in us at the time of
liquidation.
Upon a complete liquidation after the ^ conversion, each depositor
would have a claim, as a creditor, of the same general priority as the claims of
all other general creditors of ours. Therefore, except as described below, a
depositor's claim would be solely in the amount of the balance in his deposit
account plus accrued interest. A depositor would not have an interest in the
residual value of our assets above that amount, if any.
15
<PAGE>
The Plan provides for the establishment, upon the completion of the ^
conversion, of a special "liquidation account" for the benefit of Eligible
Account Holders and Supplemental Eligible Account Holders. Each Eligible Account
Holder and Supplemental Eligible Account Holder, if he continues to maintain his
deposit account with us, would be entitled on a complete liquidation of us after
^ conversion, to an interest in the liquidation account prior to any payment to
stockholders. Each Eligible Account Holder would have an initial interest in
such liquidation account for each deposit account held in us on the qualifying
date, March 31, 1996. Each Supplemental Eligible Account Holder would have a
similar interest as of the qualifying date, June 30, 1997. The interest as to
each deposit account would be in the same proportion of the total liquidation
account as the balance of the deposit account on the qualifying dates was to the
aggregate balance in all the deposit accounts of Eligible Account Holders and
Supplemental Eligible Account Holders on such qualifying dates. However, if the
amount in the deposit account on any annual closing date of ours (June 30) is
less than the amount in such account on the respective qualifying dates, then
the interest in this special liquidation account would be reduced from time to
time by an amount proportionate to any such reduction, and the interest would
cease to exist if such deposit account were closed. The interest in the special
liquidation account will never be increased despite any increase in the related
deposit account after the respective qualifying dates.
No merger, consolidation, purchase of bulk assets with assumptions of
savings accounts and other liabilities, or similar transactions with another
insured institution in which transaction we in our converted form are not the
surviving institution shall be considered a complete liquidation. In such
transactions, the liquidation account shall be assumed by the surviving
institution.
Subscription Rights and the Subscription Offering
Non-transferable subscription rights to purchase shares of the common
stock have been granted to ^ persons and entities entitled to purchase shares in
the Subscription Offering under the Plan. If the Community Offering, Public
Offering or Syndicated Public Offering, as described below, extends beyond 45
days following the completion of the Subscription Offering, subscribers will be
resolicited. Subscription priorities have been established for the allocation of
stock to the extent that shares are available after satisfaction of all
subscriptions of all persons having prior rights and subject to the purchase
limitations set forth in the Plan and as described below under "-- Limitations
on Purchases of Shares." The following priorities have been established:
Category 1: Eligible Account Holders (First Priority). Eligible Account Holders
are persons who had a deposit account of at least $50 with us on March 31, 1996.
Each Eligible Account Holder will receive non-transferable subscription rights
on a priority basis to purchase that number of shares of common stock which is
equal to the greater of 7,500 shares ($75,000), or 15 times the product (rounded
down to the next whole number) obtained by multiplying the total number of
shares to be issued by a fraction of which the numerator is the amount of the
qualifying deposit of the Eligible Account Holder and the denominator is the
total amount of qualifying deposits of all Eligible Account Holders. If such
allocation results in an oversubscription, shares shall be allocated among
subscribing Eligible Account Holders so as to permit each such account holder,
to the extent possible, to purchase the lesser of 100 shares or the total amount
of his subscription. Any shares not so allocated shall be allocated among the
subscribing Eligible Account Holders on an equitable basis, related to the
amounts of their respective qualifying deposits as compared to the total
qualifying deposits of all subscribing Eligible Account Holders. Only a ^
person(s) with a ^ qualifying deposit as of the ^ eligibility record date (or a
successor entity or estate) shall receive subscription rights. Any Person(s)
added to a Savings Account after the Eligibility Record Date is not an Eligible
Account Holder. Subscription rights received by officers and directors in this
category based on their increased deposits in us in the one-year period
preceding March 31, 1996,
16
<PAGE>
are subordinated to the subscription rights of other Eligible Account Holders.
See "-- Limitations on Purchases and Transfer of Shares."
Category 2: Tax-Qualified Employee Benefit Plans (Second Priority). Our
tax-qualified employee benefit plans ("Employee Plans") have been granted
subscription rights to purchase up to 8% of the total shares issued in the ^
conversion. The ESOP is an Employee Plan.
The right of Employee Plans to subscribe for shares is subordinate to
the right of the Eligible Account Holders to subscribe for shares. However, in
the event the offering result in the issuance of shares above the maximum of the
EVR (i.e., more than 287,500 shares), the Employee Plans have a priority right
to fill their subscription (the ESOP, the only Employee Plan, currently intends
to purchase up to 8% of the common stock issued in the ^ conversion). The
Employee Plans may, however, determine to purchase some or all of the shares
covered by their subscriptions after the ^ conversion in the open market or, if
approved by the OTS, out of authorized but unissued shares in the event of an
oversubscription.
Category 3: Supplemental Eligible Account Holders (Third Priority). Supplemental
Eligible Account Holders are persons who had a deposit account of at least $50
with us on June 30, 1997. Each Supplemental Eligible Account Holder who is not
an Eligible Account Holder will receive non-transferable subscription rights to
purchase that number of shares which is equal to the greater of 7,500 shares
($75,000), or 15 times the product (rounded down to the next whole number)
obtained by multiplying the total number of shares to be issued by a fraction of
which the numerator is the amount of the qualifying deposit of the Supplemental
Eligible Account Holder and the denominator is the total amount of qualifying
deposits of all Supplemental Eligible Account Holders. If the allocation made in
this paragraph results in an oversubscription, shares shall be allocated among
subscribing Supplemental Eligible Account Holders so as to permit each such
account holder, to the extent possible, to purchase the lesser of 100 shares or
the total amount of his subscription. Any shares not so allocated shall be
allocated among the subscribing Supplemental Eligible Account Holders on an
equitable basis, related to the amounts of their respective qualifying deposits
as compared to the total qualifying deposits of all subscribing Supplemental
Eligible Account Holders. See "-- Limitations on Purchases and Transfer of
Shares."
The right of Supplemental Eligible Account Holders to subscribe for
shares is subordinate to the rights of the Eligible Account Holders and Employee
Plans to subscribe for shares.
Category 4: Other Members (Fourth Priority). Other Members are persons who have
a deposit account of at least $50 on the voting record date of our special
meeting and certain borrowers whose loans were outstanding as of January 31,
1993 and continue to be outstanding, on the voting record date of our special
meeting. Each Other Member who is not an Eligible Account Holder or Supplemental
Eligible Account Holder, will receive non-transferable subscription rights to
purchase up to 7,500 shares ($75,000) to the extent such shares are available
following subscriptions by Eligible Account Holders, Employee Plans, and
Supplemental Eligible Account Holders. In the event there are not enough shares
to fill the orders of the Other Members, the subscriptions of the Other Members
will be allocated so that each subscribing Other Member will be entitled to
purchase the lesser of 100 shares or the number of shares ordered. Any remaining
shares will be allocated among Other Members whose subscriptions remain
unsatisfied on a 100 share (or whatever lesser amount is available) per order
basis until all orders have been filled on the remaining shares have been
allocated. See "-- Limitations on Purchases and Transfer of Shares."
17
<PAGE>
Members in Non-Qualified States. We will make reasonable efforts to
comply with the securities laws of all states in the United States in which
persons entitled to subscribe for the shares pursuant to the Plan reside.
However, no person will be offered or allowed to purchase any shares under the
Plan if he resides in a foreign country or in a state with respect to which any
of the following apply: (i) a small number of persons otherwise eligible to
subscribe for shares under the Plan reside in that state or foreign country;
(ii) the granting of subscription rights or offer or sale of shares of common
stock to those persons would require either us, or our employees to register,
under the securities laws of that state or foreign country, as a broker or
dealer or to register or otherwise qualify our securities for sale in that state
or foreign country; or (iii) such registration or qualification would be
impracticable for reasons of cost or otherwise. No payments will be made in lieu
of the granting of subscription rights to any person.
Restrictions on Transfer of Subscription Rights and Shares. Persons are
prohibited from transferring or entering into any agreement or understanding to
transfer the legal or beneficial ownership of their subscription rights.
Subscription rights may be exercised only by the person to whom they are granted
and only for his account. Each person subscribing for shares will be required to
certify that he is purchasing shares solely for his own account and has not
entered into an agreement or understanding regarding the sale or transfer of
those shares. The regulations also prohibit any person from offering or making
an announcement of an offer or intent to make an offer to purchase subscription
rights or shares of common stock prior to the completion of the ^ conversion.
We will pursue any and all legal and equitable remedies in the event we
become aware of the transfer of subscription rights and will not honor orders
believed by us to involve the transfer of subscription rights.
Expiration Date. The Subscription Offering will expire at 12:00 p.m.,
Eastern Time, on __________ ____, 1997, (Expiration Date). Subscription rights
will become void if not exercised prior to the Expiration Date.
Community or Public Offering
To the extent that shares remain available and subject to market
conditions at or near the completion of the Subscription Offering, we may offer
shares, in a Community offering, with a preference to persons who reside in
Allegheny County, Pennsylvania or to selected persons in a Public Offering on a
best-efforts basis through Trident in such a manner as to promote a wide
distribution of the Common Stock. Any orders received in connection with the
Community Offering or Public Offering, if any, will receive a lower priority
than orders properly made in the Subscription Offering by persons exercising
Subscription Rights. Common Stock sold in the Community Offering or Public
Offering will be sold at the same price as all other shares in the Subscription
Offering. We have the right to reject any orders in the Community Offering or
Public Offering.
No person^ will be permitted to purchase more than ^ 7,500 shares or ^
$75,000 of Common Stock in the Community Offering or Public Offering. However,
no ^ person, related person or persons acting together, may purchase more than
the lesser of 12,500 shares or 5% of the amount of stock sold. To order Common
Stock in connection with the Community Offering or Public Offering, if held, an
executed stock order and account withdrawal authorization (if applicable) must
be received ^ prior to the termination of the Community Offering or Public
Offering. Promptly upon receipt of available funds, together with a properly
executed stock order and account withdrawal authorization, if applicable, and
certification, Trident will forward ^ funds for any order in a Community
Offering or Public Offering to the Bank to be deposited in a subscription escrow
account.
18
<PAGE>
The date by which orders must be received in the Community Offering or
Public Offering ^("Community Offering or Public Offering Expiration Date") will
be set by us at the time of commencement of the Community Offering or Public
Offering; provided however, if the Offering are extended beyond __________ ____,
1997, each purchaser will have the opportunity to maintain, modify, or rescind
his order. In such event, all funds received in the Community Offering or Public
Offering will be promptly returned with interest unless ^ the subscriber
affirmatively indicates otherwise.
If an order in the Community Offering or Public Offering is accepted,
promptly after the completion of the ^ conversion, a certificate for the
appropriate amount of shares will be forwarded to Trident as nominee for the
beneficial owner. In the event that an order is not accepted ^ in the Community
Offering or Public Offering or the conversion is not consummated, ^ Workingmens
Bank will promptly refund with interest the funds received to Trident which will
then return the funds to purchaser's accounts. If the aggregate pro forma market
value of the Workingmens Bank, as converted, is less than $2,125,000 or more
than $3,306,000 ^, each purchaser will have the right to modify or rescind his
order. The Plan also permits Trident to conduct a Syndicated Public Offering,
which is not expected to occur. If a Syndicated Public Offering does occur, it
will be on the same terms as the Community Offering and the Public Offering.
Ordering and Receiving Shares
Use of Order Forms. Rights to subscribe in the Subscription Offering or
purchase stock in the Community Offering or Public Offering (if any) may only be
exercised by completion of an original order form. Persons ordering shares in
the Subscription Offering must deliver by mail or in person a properly completed
and executed original order form to us prior to the Expiration Date. Order forms
must be accompanied by full payment for all shares ordered. See "-- Payment for
Shares." Subscription rights under the Plan will expire on the Expiration Date,
whether or not we have been able to locate each person entitled to subscription
rights. Once submitted, subscription orders cannot be revoked without our
consent unless the ^ conversion is not completed within 45 days of the
Expiration Date.
In the event an order form (i) is not delivered and is returned to us
by the United States Postal Service or we are unable to locate the addressee,
(ii) is not received or is received after the Expiration Date, (iii) is
defectively completed or executed, or (iv) is not accompanied by full payment
for the shares subscribed for (including instances where a savings account or
certificate balance from which withdrawal is authorized is insufficient to fund
the amount of such required payment), the subscription rights for the person to
whom such rights have been granted will lapse as though that person failed to
return the completed order form within the time period specified. We may, but
will not be required to, waive any irregularity on any order form or require the
submission of corrected order forms or the remittance of full payment for
subscribed shares by such date as we specify. The waiver of an irregularity on
an order form in no way obligates us to waive any other irregularity on that, or
any irregularity on any other, order form. Waivers will be considered on a case
by case basis. Photocopies of order forms, payments from private third parties,
or electronic transfers of funds will not be accepted. Our interpretation of the
terms and conditions of the Plan and of the acceptability of the order forms
will be final. We have the right to investigate any irregularity on any order
form.
To ensure that each purchaser receives a prospectus at least 48 hours
before the Expiration Date in accordance with Rule 15c2-8 of the Exchange Act,
no prospectus will be mailed any later than five days prior to such date or hand
delivered any later than two days prior to such date. Execution of the order
form will confirm receipt or delivery in accordance with Rule 15c2-8. Order
forms will only be distributed with a prospectus.

Payment for Shares. Payment for shares of common stock may be made (i)
in cash, if delivered in person, (ii) by check or money order, or (iii) by
authorization of withdrawal from savings accounts (including certificates of
deposit) maintained with us or (iv) by an IRA not held by us. Appropriate means
by which such withdrawals may be authorized are provided in the order form. Once
such a withdrawal has been authorized, none of the designated withdrawal amount
may be used by the subscriber for any purpose other than to purchase the shares.
Where payment has been authorized to be made through withdrawal from a savings
account, the sum authorized for withdrawal will continue to earn interest at the
contract rate until the ^ conversion has been completed or terminated. Interest
penalties for early withdrawal applicable to certificate accounts will not apply
to withdrawals authorized for the purchase of shares; however, if a partial
withdrawal results in a certificate account with a balance less than the
applicable minimum balance requirement, the certificate evidencing the remaining
balance will earn interest at the passbook savings account rate subsequent to
the withdrawal. Payments made in cash or by check or money order, will be placed
in a segregated savings account and interest will be paid by us at our passbook
savings account rate from the date payment is received until the ^ conversion is
completed or terminated. An executed order form, once received by us, may not be
modified, amended, or rescinded without our consent, unless the ^ conversion is
not completed within 45 days after the conclusion of the Subscription Offering,
in which event subscribers may be given an opportunity to increase, decrease, or
rescind their order. In the event that the ^ conversion is not consummated, all
funds submitted pursuant to the offering will be refunded promptly with
interest.
Owners of self-directed IRAs may use the assets of such IRAs to
purchase shares in the offering, provided that such IRAs are not maintained on
deposit with us. Persons with IRAs maintained with us must have their accounts
transferred to an unaffiliated institution or broker to purchase shares in the
offering. The Stock Information can assist you in transferring your
self-directed IRA. Because of the paperwork involved, persons owning IRAs with
us who wish to use their IRA account to purchase stock in the ^ offering, must
contact the Stock Information Center no later than __________ ____, 1997.
The ESOP may subscribe for shares by submitting its order form along
with evidence of a loan commitment from a financial institution or WSB for the
purchase of the shares during the Subscription Offering and by making payment
for shares on the date of completion of the ^ conversion.
Federal regulations prohibit us from lending funds or extending credit
to any person to purchase shares in the ^ conversion.
Delivery of Stock Certificates. Certificates representing shares of
common stock issued in the ^ conversion will be mailed to the person(s) at the
address noted on the order form, as soon as practicable following consummation
of the ^ conversion. Any certificates returned as undeliverable will be held
until properly claimed or otherwise disposed. Persons ordering shares might not
be able to sell their shares until they receive their stock certificates.
Plan of Distribution
Materials for the offering have been distributed to eligible
subscribers by mail. Additional copies are available at our main office. Our
officers may be available to answer questions about the ^ conversion. Responses
to questions about us will be limited to the information contained in this
document. Officers will not be authorized to render investment advice. All
subscribers for the shares being offered will be instructed to send payment
directly to us. The funds will be held in a segregated special escrow account
and will not be released until the closing of the ^ conversion or its
termination.

Marketing Arrangements
Trident has been engaged as our financial advisor in connection with
the offering. Trident has agreed to exercise its best efforts to assist us in
the sale of the shares in the offering. Trident will receive $85,000 which
includes payment for out-of-pocket and legal expenses. Also, we have agreed to
indemnify Trident for reasonable costs and expenses in connection with certain
claims or liabilities which might be asserted against Trident. This
indemnification covers the investigation, preparation of defense and defense of
any action, proceeding or claim relating to misrepresentation or breach of
warranty of the written agreement among Trident and us or the omission or
alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated or necessary in the
prospectus or other documents.
The shares will be offered principally by the distribution of this
document and through activities conducted at a Stock Information Center located
at our branch office. The Stock Information Center is expected to operate during
our normal business hours throughout the offering. A registered representative
employed by Trident will be working at, and supervising the operation of, the
Stock Information Center. Trident will assist us in responding to questions
regarding the ^ conversion and the offering and processing order forms. Our
personnel will be present in the Stock Information Center to assist Trident with
clerical matters and to answer questions related solely to our business.
Stock Pricing
Ferguson, an independent economic consulting and appraisal firm, which
is experienced in the evaluation and appraisal of business entities, including
savings institutions involved in the conversion process has been retained by us
to prepare an appraisal of our estimated pro forma market value. Ferguson will
receive a fee of $14,000 for preparing the appraisal and its assistance in
connection with the preparation of a business plan and will be reimbursed up to
$3,500 for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. We have agreed to indemnify
Ferguson under certain circumstances against liabilities and expenses arising
out of or based on any misstatement or untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the information supplied by us to Ferguson.
The appraisal was prepared by Ferguson in reliance upon the information
contained herein, including the financial statements. The appraisal contains an
analysis of a number of factors including, but not limited to, our financial
condition and operating trends, the competitive environment within which we
operate, operating trends of certain savings institutions and savings and loan
holding companies, relevant economic conditions, both nationally and in the
state of Pennsylvania which affect the operations of savings institutions, and
stock market values of certain savings institutions. In addition, Ferguson has
advised us that it has considered the effect of the additional capital raised by
the sale of the shares on our estimated aggregate pro forma market value.
On the basis of the above, Ferguson has determined, in its opinion,
that as of June 6, 1997 our estimated aggregate pro forma market value was
$2,500,000. OTS regulations require, however, that the appraiser establish a
range of value for the stock to allow for fluctuations in the aggregate value of
the stock due to changing market conditions and other factors. Accordingly,
Ferguson has established a range of value from $2,125,000 to $2,875,000 for the
offering^, the EVR. The EVR will be updated prior to consummation of the ^
conversion and the ^ EVR may increase to $3,306,000.
The board of directors has reviewed the independent appraisal,
including the stated methodology of the independent appraiser and the
assumptions used in the preparation of the independent appraisal.
21
<PAGE>
The board of directors is relying upon the expertise, experience and
independence of the appraiser and is not qualified to determine the
appropriateness of the assumptions.
In order for stock sales to take place Ferguson must confirm to the OTS
that, to the best of Ferguson's knowledge and judgment, nothing of a material
nature has occurred which would cause Ferguson to conclude that the Purchase
Price on an aggregate basis was incompatible with Ferguson's estimate of our pro
forma market value of us in converted form at the time of the sale. If, however,
facts do not justify such a statement, an amended ^ EVR may be established.
The appraisal is not a recommendation of any kind as to the
advisability of purchasing these shares. In preparing the appraisal, Ferguson
has relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of financial and
statistical information provided by us. Ferguson did not independently verify
the financial statements and other information provided by us, nor did Ferguson
value independently our assets and liabilities. The appraisal considers us only
as a going concern and should not be considered as our liquidation value.
Moreover, because the appraisal is based upon estimates and projections of a
number of matters which are subject to change, the market price of the common
stock could decline below $10.00.
Change in Number of Shares to be Issued in the Conversion
Depending on market and financial conditions at the time of the
completion of the ^ offerings, we may significantly increase or decrease the
number of shares to be issued in the ^ conversion . In the event of an increase
in the valuation, we may increase the total number of shares to be issued in the
^ conversion. An increase in the total number of shares to be issued in the ^
conversion would decrease a subscriber's percentage ownership interest and the
pro forma net worth (book value) per share and increase the pro forma net income
and net worth (book value) on an aggregate basis. In the event of a material
reduction in the valuation, we may decrease the number of shares to be issued to
reflect the reduced valuation. A decrease in the number of shares to be issued
in the ^ conversion would increase a subscriber's percentage ownership interest
and the pro forma net worth (book value) per share and decrease pro forma net
income and net worth on an aggregate basis.
Persons ordering shares will not be permitted to modify or cancel their
orders unless the change in the number of shares to be issued in the ^
conversion results in an offering which is either less than $2,125,000 or more
than $3,306,000. If the offering is either less than $2,125,000 or more than
$3,306,000, all persons will receive a new document with updated information.
Persons who subscribed for shares will have an opportunity to modify or cancel
their orders. Persons who did not subscribe for shares will not have the
opportunity to do so.
Limitations on Purchases and Transfer of Shares
The Plan provides for certain additional purchase limitations. The
minimum purchase is 25 shares and the maximum purchase for any individual person
or persons ordering through a single account, is 7,500 shares. No person or
persons ordering through a single account, together with associates, or group of
persons acting ^ together, may purchase more than 12,500 shares except for the
Employee Plans which may purchase up to 8% of the shares sold. However, no ^
person, together with associates and persons acting ^ together with such
persons^ may ^ purchase more than 5% of the amount of stock sold. The OTS
regulations governing the ^ conversion provide that officers and directors and
their associates may not purchase, in the aggregate, more than 35% of the shares
issued pursuant to the ^ conversion.
22
<PAGE>
Depending on market conditions and the results of the offering, the
board of directors may increase or decrease any of the purchase limitations
without the approval of our members and without resoliciting subscribers. If the
maximum purchase limitation is increased, persons who ordered the maximum amount
will be given the first opportunity to increase their orders. In doing so the
preference categories in the offerings will be followed.
In the event of an increase in the total number of shares offered in
the ^ conversion due to an increase in the EVR of up to 15% (the "Adjusted
Maximum"), the additional shares will be allocated in the following order of
priority: (i) to fill the Employee Plans' subscription of up to 8% of the
Adjusted Maximum number of shares (the ESOP currently intends to subscribe for
8%); (ii) in the event that there is an oversubscription by Eligible Account
Holders, to fill unfulfilled subscriptions of Eligible Account Holders ^; (iii)
in the event that there is an oversubscription by Supplemental Eligible Account
Holders, to fill unfulfilled subscriptions to Supplemental Eligible Account
Holders ^; (iv) in the event that there is an oversubscription by Other Members,
to fill unfulfilled subscriptions of Other Members ^; and (v) to fill
unfulfilled subscriptions in the Community Offering or Public Offering to the
extent possible^.
The term "associate" of a person means (i) any corporation or
organization (other than us or a majority-owned subsidiary of ours) of which
such person is an officer or partner or is, directly or indirectly, the
beneficial owner of 10% or more of any class of equity securities, (ii) any
trust or other estate in which such person has a substantial beneficial interest
or as to which such person serves as director or in a similar fiduciary capacity
(excluding tax-qualified employee stock benefit plans), and (iii) any relative
or spouse of such person or any relative of such spouse, who has the same home
as such person or who is a director or officer of us, or any of our
subsidiaries. For example, a corporation of which a person serves as an officer
would be an associate of that person, and therefore all shares purchased by that
corporation would be included with the number of shares which that person
individually could purchase under the above limitations.
The term "officer" may include our chairman of the board, president,
vice presidents in charge of principal business functions, Secretary and
Treasurer and any other person performing similar functions. All references
herein to an officer have the same meaning as used for an officer in the Plan.
To order shares in the ^ conversion, persons must certify that their
purchase does not conflict with the purchase limitations. In the event that the
purchase limitations are violated by any person (including any associate or
group of persons affiliated or otherwise acting in concert with such persons),
we will have the right to purchase from that person at $10.00 per share all
shares acquired by that person in excess of the purchase limitations. If the
excess shares have been sold by that person, we may recover the profit from the
sale of the shares by that person. We may assign our right either to purchase
the excess shares or to recover the profits from their sale.
Shares of common stock purchased pursuant to the ^ conversion will be
freely transferable, except for shares purchased by our directors and officers.
For certain restrictions on the shares purchased by directors and officers, see
" -- Restrictions on Sales and Purchases of Shares by Directors and Officers."
In addition, under guidelines of the NASD, members of the NASD and their
associates are subject to certain restrictions on the transfer of securities
purchased in accordance with subscription rights and to certain reporting
requirements upon purchase of such securities.
23
<PAGE>
Restrictions on Repurchase of Shares
Generally, during the first year following the ^ conversion, WSB may
not repurchase its shares and during each of the second and third years
following the ^ conversion, WSB may repurchase five percent of the outstanding
shares provided they are purchased in open-market transactions. Repurchases must
not cause us to become undercapitalized and at least 10 days prior notice of the
repurchase must be provided to the OTS. The OTS may disapprove a repurchase
program upon a determination that (1) the repurchase program would adversely
affect our financial condition, (2) the information submitted is insufficient
upon which to base a conclusion as to whether the financial condition would be
adversely affected, or (3) a valid business purpose was not demonstrated.
However, the OTS may grant special permission to repurchase shares after six
months following the ^ conversion and to repurchase more than five percent
during each of the second and third years. In addition, SEC rules also govern
the method, time, price, and number of shares of common stock that may be
repurchased by WSB and affiliated purchasers. If, in the future, the rules and
regulations regarding the repurchase of stock are liberalized, WSB may utilize
the rules and regulations then in effect.
Restrictions on Sales and Purchases of Shares by Directors and Officers
Shares purchased by directors and officers of WSB may not be sold for
one year following the ^ conversion, except in the event of the death of the
director or officer. Any shares issued to directors and officers as a stock
dividend, stock split, or otherwise with respect to restricted stock shall be
subject to the same restrictions.
For three years following the ^ conversion, directors and officers may
purchase shares only through a registered broker or dealer. Exceptions are
available only if the OTS has approved the purchase or the purchase is an arm's
length transaction and involves more than one percent of the outstanding shares.
Interpretation and Amendment of the Plan
We have the authority to interpret and amend the Plan. Our
interpretations are final. Amendments to the Plan after the receipt of member
approval will not need further member approval unless required by the OTS.
Conditions and Termination
Completion of the ^ conversion requires (i) the approval of the Plan by
the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the total number of votes
eligible to be cast by our members; and (ii) completion of the sale of shares
within 24 months following approval of the Plan by our members. If these
conditions are not satisfied, the Plan will be terminated and we will continue
our business in the mutual form of organization. We may terminate the Plan at
any time prior to the meeting of members to vote on the Plan or at any time
thereafter with the approval of the OTS.
Other
All statements made in this document are hereby qualified by the
contents of the Plan of ^ conversion, the material terms of which are set forth
herein. The Plan of Conversion is attached to the proxy statement mailed to
certain depositors and borrowers. Copies of the Plan are available from us and
we should be consulted for further information. Adoption of the Plan by our
members authorizes us to interpret, amend or terminate the Plan.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results
of operations is intended to assist you in understanding our financial condition
and results of operations. The information in this section should also be read
with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated
Financial Statements elsewhere in this document.
WSB has recently been formed^ and, accordingly, has no results of
operations. The following discussion relates only to our consolidated financial
condition and results of operations.
Our results of operations depend primarily on net interest income,
which is determined by (i) the difference between rates of interest we earn on
our interest-earning assets and the rates we pay on interest-bearing liabilities
(interest rate spread), and (ii) the relative amounts of interest -earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Our results of operations are also
affected by non-interest income, including, primarily, income from customer
deposit account service charges, gains and losses from the sale of investments
and mortgage-backed securities and non-interest expense, including, primarily,
compensation and employee benefits, federal deposit insurance premiums, office
occupancy costs, and data processing cost. Our results of operations also are
affected significantly by general and economic and competitive conditions,
particularly changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions
of regulatory authorities, all of which are beyond our control.
Asset/Liability Management
Our assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to
which our assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive and by monitoring
the expected effects of interest rate changes on our net portfolio value.
An asset or liability is interest rate sensitive within a specific time
period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. If our assets
mature or reprice more quickly or to a greater extent than our liabilities, our
net portfolio value and net interest income would tend to increase during
periods of rising interest rates but decrease during periods of falling interest
rates. Conversely, if our assets mature or reprice more slowly or to a lesser
extent than our liabilities, our net portfolio value and net interest income
would tend to decrease during periods of rising interest rates but increase
during periods of falling interest rates. Our policy has been to address the
interest rate risk inherent in the historical savings institution business of
originating long-term loans funded by short-term deposits by maintaining
sufficient liquid assets for material and prolonged changes in interest rates.
We originate fixed rate real estate loans which approximated 85% of our
loan portfolio at March 31, 1997. To manage the interest rate risk of this type
of loan portfolio, we limit maturities of fixed ^ rate loans to no more than 20
years and maintain a portfolio of liquid assets. Maintaining liquid assets tends
to reduce potential net income because liquid assets usually provide a lower
yield than less liquid assets. At March 31, 1997, the average weighted term to
maturity of our mortgage loan portfolio was slightly more than 13 years and the
average weighted term of our deposits was slightly less than 8 months. See
"Business of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB -- Lending Activities."
26
<PAGE>
Net Portfolio Value
In recent years, we have measured our interest rate sensitivity by
computing the "gap" between the assets and liabilities which were expected to
mature or reprice within certain time periods, based on assumptions regarding
loan prepayment and deposit decay rates formerly provided by the OTS. However,
we now compute amounts by which the net present value of our cash flow from
assets, liabilities and off balance sheet items (our net portfolio value or
"NPV") would change in the event of a range of assumed changes in market
interest rates. These computations estimate the effect on an our NPV from
instantaneous and permanent 1% to 4% (100 to 400 basis points) increases and
decreases in market interest rates. Based upon OTS assumptions, the following
table presents our NPV at March 31, 1997.
<TABLE>

(1) Calculated as the estimated NPV ^ divided by present value of total
assets.
(2) Calculated as the excess (deficiency) of the NPV ratio assuming the
indicated change in interest rates over the estimated NPV ratio
assuming no change in interest rates.
Because most of our loans have a fixed ^ rate, these calculations
indicate that we would be deemed to have a more than normal level of interest
rate risk under applicable regulatory capital requirements. See ^"Regulation."
While we cannot predict future interest rates or their effects on our
NPV or net interest income, we do not expect current interest rates, assuming
rates remain stable, to have a material adverse effect on our NPV or net
interest income. Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest
rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of
market interest rates, prepayments and deposit run-offs and should not be relied
upon as indicative of actual results. Certain shortcomings are inherent in such
computations. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturity
or periods of repricing they may react at different times and in different
degrees to changes in the market interest rates. The interest rates on certain
types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market
interest rates, while rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag
behind changes in market interest rates. In the event of a change in interest
rates, prepayments and early withdrawal levels could deviate significantly from
those assumed in making calculations set forth above. Additionally, an increased
credit risk may result as the ability of many borrowers to service their debt
may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.
27
<PAGE>
The board of directors reviews our asset and liability policies. The
board of directors meets quarterly to review interest rate risk and trends, as
well as liquidity and capital ratios and requirements. Management administers
the policies and determinations of the board of directors with respect to our
asset and liability goals and strategies. We expect that our asset and liability
policies and strategies will continue as described so long as competitive and
regulatory conditions in the financial institution industry and market interest
rates continue as they have in recent years.
Financial Condition
Total consolidated assets increased $2.5 million, or 8.3% to $33.1
million at March 31, 1997 from $30.6 million at June 30, 1996. The increase in
total assets reflects a $1.5 million increase in investment and mortgage-backed
securities, a $497,000 increase in loans and real estate, net, and a $387,000
increase in cash and cash equivalents. Our increase in investment and
mortgage-backed securities outpaced our increase in loans mainly due to a lack
of loan demand in our lending area.
Deposits decreased $297,000 or 1.1% to $27.9 million at March 31, 1997
from $28.2 million at June 30, 1996, whereas deposits increased $2.4 million or
9.2% to $28.2 million at June 30, 1997 from $25.8 million at June 30, 1995. The
increase in fiscal 1996, as well as the decrease in the nine months ended March
31, 1997 was a result of new deposits being attracted due to promoting the
opening of a new branch office and the subsequent movement of such new deposits
once the branch was operating for some time. We believe that the aggregate
dollar amount of deposits will remain stable. In the future, the relatively new
branch office is expected to attract additional deposits while the main office
might continue to experience slight declines in deposits. Interest bearing
liabilities increased $2.7 million, or 9.6% to $30.9 million at March 31, 1997
from $28.2 million at June 30, 1996. The increase reflects borrowings of $3.0
million from the FHLB which funded the purchases of our investments.
Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
Net Income. Net income decreased ^ $125,000 or ^ 405.8% from $31,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to a net loss of ^ $94,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily the result of the
recognition of the one-time SAIF special insurance assessment in the amount of
$108,000 (after taxes) and the increase in the provision for loan losses of
$114,000 partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $97,000. ^
Net Interest Income. Net interest income is the most significant
component of our income from operations. Net interest income is the difference
between interest we receive on our interest-earning assets (primarily loans,
investment and mortgage-backed securities) and interest we pay on our
interest-bearing liabilities (primarily deposits and borrowed funds). Net
interest income depends on the volume of and rates earned on interest-earning
assets and the volume of and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
The following tables set forth a summary of average balances of assets
and liabilities as well as average yield and cost information. Average balances
are derived from monthly balances, however, we do not believe the use of
month-end balances has caused any material differences in the information
presented. There has been no tax equivalent adjustments made to yields.

<PAGE>
Our net interest income increased $97,000 or 16.6% to $685,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to $588,000 for the nine months ended
March 31, 1996. The increase was due primarily to the growth of average
interest-earning assets from $28.2 million for the nine months ended March 31,
1996 to $30.2 million for the nine ^ months ended March 31, 1997.
The increase in our average interest-earning assets of $2.0 million
reflects an increase of $947,000 in average loans, an increase of $3.3 million
in average investment and mortgage-backed securities offset by a decrease of
$2.3 million in average other interest-earning assets.
Our interest rate spread and net interest margin increased for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
This was due to the increase in the yield on interest-earning assets from 7.22%
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to 7.39% for the nine months ended
March 31, 1997, and by the decrease in the interest cost of average interest
bearing liabilities from 4.65% in the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to 4.47%
in the nine months ended March 31, 1997.
The yield on our average interest-earning assets increased in the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 due to an increase in the average balance of loans
and investment securities.
The decrease in the cost of our average interest-bearing liabilities
was due primarily to a decrease in the cost of certificates of deposit from
5.92% in the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to 5.63% in the nine months ended
March 31, 1997 and interest-bearing demand deposits from 3.31% in the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 to 3.18% in the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
offset partially by an increase in the average other interest-bearing
liabilities. The lower cost of certificates of deposit and demand deposits
reflects our reduction of deposit rates to match the decrease in interest rates
during the nine months ended March 31, 1997.
Provision for Loan Losses. Our provision for loan losses increased
$115,000 or 856% to $128,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 from
$13,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
The increase in the provision for loan losses for the nine months ended
March 31, 1997 was attributable to changes in one of our borrower's ability to
repay. The borrower had outstanding, 16 non-performing loans that ranged from
$30,000 to $100,000, totalling $736,000, secured by 1- to 4-family residences.
The properties are located in Mount Washington, a highly desirable area for
development in the city of Pittsburgh. During the quarter, we became aware of
circumstances which might decrease the value of the collateral for these loans,
due to two properties being torn down by the borrower and maintenance for other
properties being neglected by the borrower. Full payment of the loan was due
June 30, 1997 and ^ was not received.
^ Subsequent to June 30, 1997, this borrower declared bankruptcy. The
bankruptcy proceeding might delay foreclosure proceedings for a prolonged period
of time. If so, we would lose the ability to use any monies that we might
receive from the sale of these properties and there is no guarantee that value
of these properties will be maintained or that the value of the properties
received from foreclosure will be sufficient to pay the amounts outstanding on
these loans. While we believe our loan loss reserve is adequate, there can be no
assurance that our allowance for loan loss will be adequate to cover significant
losses that we might incur in the future. Also, risks associated with these
loans and losses incurred on these loans might result in higher provisions for
loan losses in the future.
32
<PAGE>
Historically, we have emphasized our loss experience over other factors
in establishing the provision for loan losses. We review the allowance for loan
losses in relation to (i) our past loan loss experience, (ii) known and inherent
risks in our portfolio, (iii) adverse situations that may affect the borrower's
ability to repay, (iv) the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and (v)
current economic conditions. Because of the increased coverage of the allowances
for loan losses to total loans, management believes the allowance for loan
losses is at a level that is considered to be adequate to provide for estimated
losses; however, there can be no assurance that further additions will not be
made to the allowance and that such losses will not exceed the estimated amount.
^ Noninterest Expense. Our noninterest expense increased by ^ $201,000
or ^ 33.3% from $603,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to ^ $804,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. The increase was primarily
attributable to the one-time special SAIF assessment of $161,000 and an increase
in our pension expense of $35,000. Our pension expense increased due to changes
made in our plan's actuarial assumptions and funding limitations. Pursuant to
the Economic Growth and Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (the "Act"), the FDIC
imposed a special assessment on SAIF members to capitalize the SAIF at the
designated reserve level of 1.25% as of October 1, 1996. Based on our deposits
as of March 31, 1995, the date for measuring the amount of the special
assessment pursuant to the Act, our special assessment was $161,000. Due to the
recapitalization of the SAIF, we expect lower premiums for deposit insurance in
future periods. The SAIF insurance assessment rate paid by us before the
recapitalization of SAIF was 23(cent) per $100 of deposits and decreased to
6.5(cent) per $100 of deposits after the recapitalization of SAIF.
Pursuant to the Act, we will pay, in addition to our normal deposit
insurance premium as a member of the SAIF, an annual amount equal to
approximately 6.5 basis points of outstanding SAIF deposits toward the
retirement of the Financing Corporation Bonds ("Fico Bonds") issued in the
1980's to assist in the recovery of the savings and loan industry. Members of
the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), by contrast, will pay, in addition to their
normal deposit insurance premium, approximately 1.3 basis points. Beginning no
later than January 1, 2000, the rate paid to retire the Fico Bonds will be equal
for members of the BIF and the SAIF. The Act also provides for the merging of
the BIF and the SAIF by January 1, 1999 provided there are no financial
institutions still chartered as savings associations at that time. Should the
insurance funds be merged before January 1, 2000, the rate paid by all members
of this new fund to retire the Fico Bonds would be equal.
Income Tax Benefit. Our income tax benefit for the nine months ended
March 31, 1997 was ^ $88,000 compared to $6,000 expense for the nine months
ended March 31, 1996. The ^ $94,000 decrease was the result of pre-tax income
decreasing by ^ $218,000, which was primarily the result of the SAIF special
insurance assessment and the increase in our pension expense. Additionally, we
invest in tax-exempt securities which provides us with nontaxable income. The
impact of these investments on our effective tax rates was to reduce our
effective tax rates by 3.4% and 32.1% for the nine months ended March 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively.
Results of Operations for the Years Ending June 30, 1996 and 1995
Net Income. Net income decreased $115,000 or 76.9% from $150,000 for
fiscal 1995 to $35,000 for fiscal 1996. The decrease was primarily the result of
a reduction in gain on sale of securities available-for-sale of $30,000 and
increases in noninterest expenses associated with the opening of our new branch
office building in November, 1995.
33
<PAGE>
Net Interest Income. Our net interest income increased $31,000 or 3.9%
to $797,000 in fiscal 1996 compared to $766,000 in fiscal 1995. The increase was
due primarily to the growth of average interest-earning assets from $26.5
million in fiscal 1995 to $28.3 million in fiscal 1996.
The increase in our average interest-earning assets of $1.8 million
reflects an increase of $475,000 in average loans, an increase of $1.1 million
in average investment and mortgage-backed securities and an increase of $256,000
in average other interest-earning assets. Our increase in investment and
mortgage-backed securities outpaced our increase in loans mainly due to a lack
of loan demand in our lending area.
Our interest rate spread and net interest margin decreased in fiscal
1996 compared to fiscal 1995. This was due to the increase in the yield on
interest-earning assets from 6.82% in fiscal 1995 to 7.25% in fiscal 1996 being
exceeded by the increase in the interest cost of average interest bearing
liabilities from 4.21% in fiscal 1995 to 4.66% in fiscal 1996.
The yield on our average interest-earning assets increased in fiscal
1996 due to an increase in the yield on investment securities. This increase in
yield on our investment securities reflected the investment of the proceeds
received from maturities of tax-exempt securities into taxable securities.
The increase in the cost of our average interest-bearing liabilities
was due primarily to an increase in the cost of certificates of deposit from
5.23% in fiscal 1995 to 5.95% in fiscal 1996, and an increase in the average
balance of $3.5 million, offset partially by a decrease in the cost of
interest-bearing demand deposits from 3.55% in fiscal 1995 to 3.27% in fiscal
1996. The lower cost of demand deposits reflects our reduction of rates to match
the decrease in interest rates for demand deposits in our area and a decrease in
average demand deposits during the year.
Provision for Loan Losses. Our provision for loan losses ^ increased
$16,000 or 84.2% from $19,000 for fiscal 1995 to $35,000 for fiscal 1996. The
increase in the provision for fiscal 1996 was the result of an increase in our
one-to four-family and multi-family real estate loans and our home equity and
second mortgage consumer loans.
^ Noninterest Income. Our non-interest income decreased approximately
$32,000 in fiscal 1996 as compared to fiscal 1995. This was attributable to
$39,000 higher gains on securities and foreclosed real estate in fiscal 1995
offset by a $7,000 increase in service charges and fees in fiscal 1996.
^ Noninterest Expense. Our non-interest expense increased by $99,000 or
14.1% from $699,000 for fiscal 1995 to $798,000 for fiscal 1996. The increase
was primarily attributable to expenses associated with the opening of our newly
constructed branch office. Such expenses included advertising and promotion, ATM
expenses, depreciation, occupancy and equipment expenses, printing and data
processing.
Income Tax Expense. Our income tax expense remained relatively constant
at $10,000 for fiscal 1996 and $11,000 for fiscal 1995. Additionally, we invest
in tax-exempt securities which provides us with nontaxable income. Those
tax-exempt securities reduced our effective tax rates by 34.7% and 22.6% for the
years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
34
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We are required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined
by OTS regulations. This requirement, which varies from time to time depending
upon economic conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a percentage of our
deposits and short-term borrowings. The required ratio currently is 5.0% and our
liquidity ratio average was 24.40% and 21.72% at March 31, 1997 and June 30
1996, respectively.
Our primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans and
mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments and interest-bearing
deposits, funds provided from operations and advances from the FHLB of
Pittsburgh. While scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities
and maturities of investment securities are predicable sources of funds, deposit
flows, and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by the general level of
interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We use our liquidity
resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund
maturing certificates of deposit and demand deposit withdrawals, to invest in
other interest-earning assets, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating
expenses.
Net cash provided by our operating activities (the cash effects of
transactions that enter into our determination of net income -- e.g., non-cash
items, amortization and depreciation, provision for loan losses) for the year
ended June 30, 1996 was $66,000 as compared to $94,000 for the year ended June
30, 1995 and $40,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to
$7,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
Net cash used in our investing activities (i.e., cash receipts,
primarily from our investment securities and mortgage-backed securities
portfolios and our loan portfolio) for the year ended June 30, 1996 totalled
$5.6 million, an increase of $7.0 million from June 30, 1995. The increase was
primarily attributable to our use of $1.0 million in cash to fund the increase
in loan originations, the use of $3.9 million in cash to fund the net increase
in investment and mortgage-backed securities and the use of $809,000 to
construct and equip the new branch office. Net cash used in our investing
activities for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 totalled $2.2 million, ^ a
decrease of $1.6 million from the nine months ended March 31, 1996. The ^
decrease in cash used was due to $1.4 million less in purchases of investment
securities and a decrease of $600,000 in the proceeds from maturities of and
principal repayments on investment securities offset by a $300,000 increase in
proceeds from sales of investments.
Net cash provided by our financing activities (i.e., cash receipts
primarily from net increases in deposits and net FHLB advances) for fiscal 1996
totalled $2.3 million. This is a result of a net increase in deposits of $2.4
million offset by a decrease in advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance
of $62,000. Net cash provided by our financing activities for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 totalled $2.5 million. This is a result of a borrowing from
the FHLB of $3.0 million offset by a decrease in deposits of $297,000 and a
decrease in advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance of $157,000.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
FASB Statement on Earnings Per Share. In March 1997, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 128. The Statement establishes standards for computing
and presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with publicly held
common stock or potential common stock. This Statement simplifies the standards
for computing earnings per share previously found in Accounting ^ Principles
Board ("APB") Opinion No. 15, Earnings per Share ("EPS"), and makes them
comparable to international EPS standards. It replaces the
35
<PAGE>
presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. It also requires
dual presentation of basic and diluted ^ EPS on the face of the income statement
for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation
of the numerator and the denominator of the basic EPS computation to the
numerator and denominator of the diluted ^ EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes
dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by
the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or
resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the
entity. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS pursuant to APB
Opinion No. 15. This statement supersedes Opinion 15 and AICPA Accounting
Interpretation 1-102 of Opinion 15. This statement is effective for financial
statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, including interim
periods. SFAS No. 128 will be adopted by us in the initial period after December
15, 1997. We do not believe the impact of adopting SFAS No. 128 will be material
to our financial statements.
FASB Statement on Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure. In
February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 129. The Statement incorporates the
disclosure requirements of APB Opinion No. 15, Earnings per Share, and makes
them applicable to all public and nonpublic entities that have issued securities
addressed by the Statement. APB Opinion No. 15 requires disclosure of
descriptive information about securities that is not necessarily related to the
computation of earnings per share. This statement continues the previous
requirements to disclose certain information about an entity's capital structure
found in APB Opinions No. 10, Omnibus Opinion - 1966, and No. 15, Earnings per
Share, and FASB Statement No. 47, Disclosure of Long-Term Obligations, for
entities that were subject to the requirements of those standards. This
Statement eliminates the exemption of nonpublic entities from certain disclosure
requirements of Opinion 15 as provided by FASB Statement No. 21, Suspension of
the Reporting of Earnings per Share and Segment Information by Nonpublic
Enterprises. It supersedes specific disclosure requirements of Opinions 10 and
15 and Statement 47 and consolidates them in this Statement for ease of
retrieval and for greater visibility to nonpublic entities. The Statement is
effective for financial statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997.
SFAS No. 129 will be adopted by us in the initial period after December 15,
1997. We do not believe the impact of adopting SFAS No.
129 will be material to our financial statements.
FASB Statement of on Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. In
October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123 defines a "fair value
based method" of accounting for an employee stock option whereby compensation
cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is
recognized over the service period. FASB has encouraged all entities to adopt
the fair value based method, however, it will allow entities to continue the use
of the "intrinsic value based method" prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25. Under
the intrinsic value based method, compensation cost is the excess of the market
price of the stock at the grant date over the amount an employee must pay to
acquire the stock. However, most stock option plans have no intrinsic value at
the grant date and, as such, no compensation cost is recognized under APB
Opinion No. 25. Entities electing to continue use of the accounting treatment of
APB Opinion No. 25 must make certain pro forma disclosures as if the fair value
based method had been applied. The accounting requirements of SFAS No. 123 are
effective for transactions entered into in fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1995. Pro forma disclosures must include the effects of all awards granted
in fiscal years ^ beginning after December 15, 1994. We ^ expect to use the
"intrinsic value based method" as prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25. Accordingly,
we do not believe the impact of adopting SFAS No. 123 will be material to our
financial statements.
SOP 93-6 Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plan. In
November 1993, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA")
issued SOP 93-6 Employers'
36
<PAGE>
Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plan. SOP 93-6 addresses accounting for
shares of stock issued to employees by an employee stock ownership plan. SOP
93-6 requires that the employer record compensation expense in an amount equal
to the fair value of shares committed to be released from the ESOP to employees.
SOP 93-6 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1993 and
relates to shares purchased by an ESOP after December 31, 1992. If the common
stock appreciates over time, SOP 93-6 will increase compensation expense
relative to the ESOP, as compared with prior guidance that required recognition
of compensation expense based on the cost of the shares acquired by the ESOP.
The amount of any such increase, however, cannot be determined at this time
because the expense will be based on the fair value of the shares committed to
be released to employees, which amount is not determinable. See "Pro Forma
Data."
BUSINESS OF WSB HOLDING COMPANY
WSB is not an operating company and has not engaged in any significant
business to date. It was formed in June 1997 as a Pennsylvania-chartered
corporation to be the holding company for Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB. The
holding company structure and retention of proceeds will facilitate: (i)
diversification into non-banking activities, (ii) acquisitions of other
financial institutions, such as savings institutions, (iii) expansion within
existing and into new market areas and (iv) stock repurchases without adverse
tax consequences. There are no present plans regarding diversification,
acquisitions, expansion, or repurchases.
Since WSB will own only one savings association, it generally will not
be restricted in the types of business activities in which it may engage;
provided, that we retain a specified amount of our assets in housing-related
investments. WSB initially will not conduct any active business and does not
intend to employ any persons other than officers but will utilize our support
staff from time to time.
The office of the WSB is located at 807 Middle St., Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. The telephone number is (412) 231-7297.
BUSINESS OF WORKINGMENS SAVINGS BANK, FSB
The principal sources of funds for our activities are deposits,
payments on loans and borrowings from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. Our deposits
totalled $27.9 million at March 31, 1997. Funds are used principally for the
origination of fixed rate loans secured by first mortgages on one- to
four-family residences which are located in our market area and investment
securities. Such loans totalled $10.6 million, or 73.91%, of our total loans
receivable portfolio at March 31, 1997. Our principal source of revenue is
interest received on loans and investments and our principal expense is interest
paid on deposits.
Market Area
Our main office is located in the North Side of Pittsburgh and our
branch office is located in Baldwin, a suburb of Pittsburgh. The ^ communities
of North Side, Baldwin, and surrounding areas of Allegheny County are considered
to be our primary market area. Most of our deposits and lending activity is
generated from individuals who live in these areas. We are a community-oriented
thrift and have served the local Allegheny County community since 1881. ^ Our
main office is located in an area where there is limited growth opportunities
for loan originations and deposit needs ^. However, our branch office is located
in a more affluent area, where in recent years, a significant amount of our
loans are originated and all of our deposit accounts are generated.
37
<PAGE>
Our main office community is characterized by (i) household and per
capita income below that of Pennsylvania and the United States, (ii) housing
values below those of Pennsylvania and the United States, and (iii) an
unemployment rate above that of Pennsylvania and below that of the United
States. Our branch office community is characterized by (i) household and per
capita income above that of Pennsylvania and the United States, (ii) housing
values below those of Pennsylvania but above those of the United States, and
(iii) an unemployment rate below that of Pennsylvania and the United States. We
believe that, to a large degree, the economic vitality of these communities
depends on the economic vitality of the City of Pittsburgh, which has been
relatively stable in recent years.
The Greater Pittsburgh area has been in the process of restructuring
over the past decade. Once centered on heavy manufacturing, primarily steel, its
economic base is now more diverse, including technology, health and business
services. Several "Fortune 500" industrial firms are headquartered in the
Greater Pittsburgh area, including USX Corporation and Westinghouse Electric
Corporation. The largest employers in Pittsburgh, by the number of local
employees, include the United States Government, the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, Westinghouse, USAir, and the University of Pittsburgh. Seven
colleges and universities are located in the general Pittsburgh area.
Lending Activities
Most of our loans are mortgage loans which are secured by one- to
four-family residences. We also make multi-family, commercial real estate and
consumer loans. Loans originated by us have rates of interest which are fixed
for the term of the loan ("fixed ^ rate").
The following table sets forth information concerning the types of
loans held by us.

</TABLE>
One- to Four-Family Residential Loans. Our primary lending activity
consists of the origination of one- to four-family fixed ^ rate residential
mortgage loans secured by property located in our primary market area. We
generally originate one- to four-family fixed ^ rate residential mortgage loans
in amounts up to 90% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price,
with private mortgage insurance required on loans with a loan-to-value ratio in
excess of 80%. The maximum loan-to-value ratio on mortgage loans secured by
non-owner occupied properties generally is limited to 80%. We retain all of our
mortgage loans and originate these loans with maturities of up to 20 years. On a
limited basis, we originate and retain fixed ^ rate balloon loans having terms
of up to 15 years, with principal and interest payments calculated using up to a
30-year amortization period. Loans originated at the main office consist almost
entirely of one- to four-family investment ^(non-owner occupied) mortgage loans
while ^ the remainder of our loans are originated from our branch office, and
include most of our one- to four-family owner occupied residential mortgage
loans.
Mortgage loans originated and held by us generally include due-on-sale
clauses. This gives us the right to deem the loan immediately due and payable in
the event the borrower transfers ownership of the property securing the mortgage
loan without our consent.
40
<PAGE>
Home Equity Loans and Second Mortgages. We originate home equity loans
and second mortgage loans which are secured by one to four-family residences. We
originate these loans on one-to four-family residences with fixed ^ rate terms
of up to 10 years. The loans are generally subject to a 80% combined
loan-to-value limitation, including any other outstanding mortgages or liens.
Multi-Family and Commercial Loans. Our multi-family loans are secured
by apartment buildings. These loans generally have not exceeded $500,000 or have
terms greater than 20 years. Commercial real estate loans are secured by office
buildings, and other commercial properties.
Multi-family and commercial real estate lending entails significant
additional risks compared to residential property lending. These loans typically
involve large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers.
The repayment of these loans typically is dependent on the successful operation
of the real estate project securing the loan. These risks can be significantly
affected by supply and demand conditions in the market for office and retail
space and may also be subject to adverse conditions in the economy. To minimize
these risks, we generally limit this type of lending to our market area and to
borrowers who are otherwise well known to us.
Loan Approval Authority and Underwriting. We established various
lending limits for our officers and maintain a loan committee. Mr. Neudorfer,
our President, has loan authority to approve all loans. Our Vice President and
Treasurer, Mr. Moreschi, has authority to approve all applications for secured
and unsecured consumer loans. The loan committee ratifies all fixed ^ rate
residential mortgage loans of $200,000 or more and all other real estate loans
and consumer loans.
Upon receipt of a completed loan application from a prospective
borrower, a credit report is ordered. Income and certain other information is
verified. If necessary, additional financial information may be requested. An
appraisal or other estimate of value of the real estate intended to be used as
security for the proposed loan is obtained. Appraisals are processed by
independent fee appraisers.
Title insurance is generally required on all real estate mortgage
loans. We do not require title insurance on home equity loans and second
mortgages, but we obtain a property report from our local state tax office which
indicates whether there are any liens or other encumbrances against the
property. Borrowers also must obtain fire and casualty insurance. Flood
insurance is also required on loans secured by property that is located in a
flood zone.
Loan Commitments. Written commitments are given to prospective
borrowers on all approved real estate loans. Generally, the commitment requires
acceptance within 60 days of the date of issuance. At March 31, 1997,
commitments to cover originations of mortgage loans totalled $154,000. We
believe that virtually all of our commitments will be funded.
41
<PAGE>
Loans to One Borrower. The maximum amount of loans which we may make to
any one borrower may not exceed the greater of $500,000 or 15% of our unimpaired
capital and unimpaired surplus. We may lend an additional 10% of our unimpaired
capital and unimpaired surplus if the loan is fully secured by readily
marketable collateral. Since 1989, our maximum loan-to-one borrower limit ^ has
been $500,000. At March 31, 1997, the aggregate loans outstanding of our five
largest borrowers have outstanding balances of between $236,000 and $736,000.
Two of these loans are in excess of our lending limit but were in compliance
with OTS regulations applicable at the time the loans were originated. One of
these loans is a non-performing loan. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Results of Operations for
the Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 -- Provision for Loan Losses".
Nonperforming and Problem Assets
Loan Delinquencies. When a mortgage loan becomes 30 days past due, a
notice of nonpayment is sent to the borrower. If, after 60 days, payment is
still delinquent, a notice of right to cure default is sent to the borrower
giving 30 additional days to bring the loan current before foreclosure is
commenced. If the loan continues in a delinquent status for 90 days past due and
no repayment plan is in effect, foreclosure proceedings will be initiated. The
customer will be notified when foreclosure is commenced.
Loans are reviewed on a monthly basis and are placed on a non-accrual
status when the loan becomes more than 90 days delinquent or when, in our
opinion, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Interest accrued and
unpaid at the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is charged against
interest income. Subsequent interest payments, if any, are either applied to the
outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on the
assessment of the ultimate collectibility of the loan.
Nonperforming Assets. The following table sets forth information
regarding nonaccrual loans and real estate owned, as of the dates indicated. We
have no loans categorized as troubled debt restructurings within the meaning of
SFAS 15 and no accruing loans that were delinquent more than 90 days. Interest
income that would have been recorded on loans accounted for on a nonaccrual
basis under the original terms of such loans was $71,000 for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997. Subsequent to March 31, 1997, certain circumstances came
to our attention which indicated that $736,000 of our nonaccrual loans might be
classified as other real estate owned. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Results of Operations for
the Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 -- Provision for Loan Losses".

Classified Assets. OTS regulations provide for a classification system
for problem assets of savings associations which covers all problem assets.
Under this classification system, problem assets of savings institutions such as
ours are classified as "substandard," "doubtful," or "loss." An asset is
considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth
and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any.
Substandard assets include those characterized by the "distinct possibility"
that the savings ^ institution will sustain "some loss" if the deficiencies are
not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent
in those classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the
weaknesses present make "collection or liquidation in full," on the basis of
currently existing facts, conditions, and values, "highly questionable and
improbable." Assets classified as loss are those considered "uncollectible" and
of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment
of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. Assets may be designated "special
mention" because of potential weakness that do not currently warrant
classification in one of the aforementioned categories.
When a savings association classifies problem assets as either
substandard or doubtful, it may establish general allowances for loan losses in
an amount deemed prudent by management. General allowances represent loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When a savings association classifies
problem assets as loss, it is required either to establish a specific allowance
for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or to charge
off such amount. A savings association's determination as to the classification
of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by
the OTS, which may order the establishment of additional general or specific
loss allowances. A portion of general loss allowances established to cover
possible losses related to assets classified as substandard or doubtful may be
included in determining a savings association's regulatory capital. Specific
valuation allowances for loan losses generally do not qualify as regulatory
capital.
43
<PAGE>
At March 31, 1997, we had loans classified as doubtful, substandard and
special mention in amounts equal to $22,000, $776,000, and $637,000,
respectively. ^ These substandard loans are classified as nonperforming loans.
See "-- Nonperforming and Problem Assets." The special mention loan in the
amount of $637,000 is a 43-unit apartment building located in the city of
Pittsburgh. In 1996, the building was severely damaged by fire and is now
completely restored. The collateral value of this property is in excess of the
loan balance.
Allowances for Loan Losses. A provision for loan losses is charged to
operations based on management's evaluation of the ^ losses that may be incurred
in our loan portfolio. The evaluation, including a review of all loans on which
full collectibility of interest and principal may not be reasonably assured,
considers: (i) our past loan loss experience, (ii) known and inherent risks in
our portfolio, (iii) adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability
to repay, (iv) the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and (v) current
economic conditions. See "Risk Factors -- Asset Quality."
We monitor our allowance for loan losses and make additions to the
allowance as economic conditions dictate. Although we maintain our allowance for
loan losses at a level that we consider adequate for the inherent risk of loss
in our loan portfolio, future losses could exceed estimated amounts and
additional provisions for loan losses could be required. In addition, our
determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to
review by the OTS, as part of its examination process. After a review of the
information available, the OTS might require the establishment of an additional
allowance.
The following table illustrates the allocation of the allowance for
loan losses for each category of loan. The allocation of the allowance to each
category is not necessarily indicative of future loss in any particular category
and does not restrict our use of the allowance to absorb losses in other loan
categories.

Investment Activities
Investment Securities. We are required under federal regulations to
maintain a minimum amount of liquid assets which may be invested in specified
short-term securities and certain other investments. See "Regulation -- Savings
Institution Regulation - Federal Home Loan Bank System" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --
Liquidity and Capital Resources." The level of liquid assets varies depending
upon several factors, including: (i) the yields on investment alternatives, (ii)
our judgment as to the attractiveness of the yields then available in relation
to other opportunities, (iii) expectation of future yield levels, and (iv) our
projections as to the short-term demand for funds to be used in loan origination
and other activities. We classify our investment securities as "available for
sale" or "held to maturity" in accordance with SFAS No. 115. At March 31, 1997,
our investment portfolio policy allowed investments in instruments such as: (i)
U.S. Treasury obligations, (ii) U.S. federal agency or federally sponsored
agency obligations, (iii) local municipal obligations, (iv) mortgage-backed
securities, (v) banker's acceptances, (vi) certificates of deposit, (vii)
federal funds, including FHLB overnight and term deposits (up to six months),
and (viii) investment grade corporate bonds, commercial paper and mortgage
derivative products. See "-- Mortgage-backed Securities." The board of directors
may authorize additional investments.
45
<PAGE>
Our investment securities "available for sale" and "held to maturity"
portfolios at March 31, 1997 did not contain securities of any issuer with an
aggregate book value in excess of 10% of our equity, excluding those issued by
the United States Government or its agencies.
Mortgage-backed Securities. To supplement lending activities, we have
invested in residential mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage-backed securities
can serve as collateral for borrowings and, through repayments, as a source of
liquidity. Mortgage-backed securities represent a participation interest in a
pool of single-family or other type of mortgages. Principal and interest
payments are passed from the mortgage originators, through intermediaries
(generally quasi-governmental agencies) that pool and repackage the
participation interests in the form of securities, to investors such as us. The
quasi-governmental agencies guarantee the payment of principal and interest to
investors and include the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"),
Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), and Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA.")
At March 31, 1997, our mortgaged-backed securities portfolio was
classified as "available for sale" and totalled $2,152,000. Each security was
issued by GNMA, FHLMC or FNMA. Expected maturities will differ from contractual
maturities due to scheduled repayments and because borrowers may have the right
to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.
Mortgage-backed securities typically are issued with stated principal
amounts. The securities are backed by pools of mortgages that have loans with
interest rates that are within a set range and have varying maturities. The
underlying pool of mortgages can be composed of either fixed ^ rate or
adjustable rate mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities are generally
referred to as mortgage participation certificates or pass-through certificates.
The interest rate risk characteristics of the underlying pool of mortgages
(i.e., fixed ^ rate or adjustable rate) and the prepayment risk, are passed on
to the certificate holder. The life of a mortgage-backed pass-through security
is equal to the life of the underlying mortgages. Mortgage-backed securities
issued by FHLMC and GNMA make up a majority of the pass-through certificates
market.
Securities Portfolio. The following table sets forth the carrying
(i.e., amortized cost) value of our investment securities held to maturity, at
the dates indicated. Our securities portfolio classified as available for sale
is carried at market value. At March 31, 1997, the market value of our
investment securities, held to maturity, was $12.8 million. At March 31, 1997,
our securities portfolio available for sale contained net unrealized losses, net
of tax, of $37,459. See Notes B and C to our financial statements elsewhere in
this document.

Sources of Funds
Deposits are our major external source of funds for lending and other
investment purposes. Funds are also derived from the receipt of payments on
loans and prepayment of loans and^ maturities of investment securities and
mortgage-backed securities^ and, to a much lesser extent, borrowings and
operations. Scheduled loan principal repayments are a relatively stable source
of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are
significantly influenced by general interest rates and market conditions.
Deposits. Consumer and commercial deposits are attracted principally
from within our primary market area through the offering of a selection of
deposit instruments including regular savings accounts, money market accounts,
and term certificate accounts. IRA accounts are also offered. Deposit account
terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the time period the funds
must remain on deposit, and the interest rate.
The interest rates paid by us on deposits are set weekly at the
direction of our senior management. Interest rates are determined based on our
liquidity requirements, interest rates paid by our competitors, and our growth
goals and applicable regulatory restrictions and requirements.
Passbook savings, money market and NOW accounts constituted $11.6
million, or 41.72%, of our deposit portfolio at March 31, 1997. Certificates of
deposit constituted $16.2 million or 58.28% of the deposit portfolio of which
$1.6 million or 5.76% of the deposit portfolio were certificates of deposit with
balances of $100,000 or more. Such deposits are offered at negotiated rates. As
of March 31, 1997, we had no brokered deposits.

Borrowings. Advances (borrowing) may be obtained from the FHLB of
Pittsburgh to supplement our supply of lendable funds. Advances from the FHLB of
Pittsburgh are typically secured by a pledge of our stock in the FHLB of
Pittsburgh, a portion of our first mortgage loans and other assets. Each FHLB
credit program has its own interest rate, which may be fixed or adjustable, and
range of maturities. We may borrow up to $15.2 million from the FHLB of
Pittsburgh. If the need arises, we may also access the Federal Reserve Bank
discount window to supplement our supply of lendable funds and to meet deposit
withdrawal requirements. At March 31, 1997, borrowings from the FHLB of
Pittsburgh totaled $3 million ^($2 million were short-term borrowings) and we
had no other borrowings outstanding. We had no borrowings at June 30, 1995 and
1996.

Competition
Competition for deposits comes from other insured financial
institutions such as commercial banks, thrift institutions, credit unions,
finance companies, and multi-state regional banks in our market areas.
Competition for funds also includes a number of insurance products sold by local
agents and investment products such as mutual funds and other securities sold by
local and regional brokers. Loan competition varies depending upon market
conditions and comes from commercial banks, thrift institutions, credit unions
and mortgage bankers, most of whom have far greater resources than we have.
Subsidiary Activity
We are permitted to invest up to 2% of our assets in the capital stock
of or loans to subsidiary corporations. Additional investment of 1% of assets is
permitted when such additional investment is utilized primarily for community
development purposes. At March 31, 1997, we had a $1,050 investment in our
subsidiary, Workingmens Service Corporation. Workingmens Service Corporation
receives commissions for referrals by the subsidiary to a third party ^
investment advisor.

<PAGE>
REGULATION
Set forth below is a brief description of certain laws which relate to
us. The description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by
references to applicable laws and regulation.
Holding Company Regulation
General. WSB will be required to register and file reports with the OTS
and will be subject to regulation and examination by the OTS. In addition, the
OTS will have enforcement authority over WSB and any non-savings institution
subsidiaries. This will permit the OTS to restrict or prohibit activities that
it determines to be a serious risk to us. This regulation is intended primarily
for the protection of our depositors and not for the benefit of you, as
stockholders of WSB.
QTL Test. Since WSB will only own one savings institution, it will be
able to diversify its operations into activities not related to banking, but
only so long as we satisfy the QTL test. If WSB controls more than one savings
institution, it would lose the ability to diversify its operations into
non-banking related activities, unless such other savings institutions each also
qualify as a QTL or were acquired in a supervised acquisition. See "-- ^ Savings
Institution Regulation - Qualified Thrift Lender Test."
Restrictions on Acquisitions. WSB must obtain approval from the OTS
before acquiring control of any other SAIF-insured savings institution. No
person may acquire control of a federally insured savings institution without
providing at least 60 days written notice to the OTS and giving the OTS an
opportunity to disapprove the proposed acquisition.
Savings Institution Regulation
General. As a federally chartered, SAIF-insured savings institution, we
are subject to extensive regulation by the OTS and the FDIC. Our lending
activities and other investments must comply with various federal and state
statutory and regulatory requirements. We are also subject to certain reserve
requirements promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
("Federal Reserve System").
The OTS, in conjunction with the FDIC, regularly examines us and
prepares reports for the consideration of our board of directors on any
deficiencies that the OTS finds in our operations. Our relationship with our
depositors and borrowers is also regulated to a great extent by federal and
state law, especially in such matters as the ownership of savings accounts and
the form and content of our mortgage documents.
We must file reports with the OTS and the FDIC concerning our
activities and financial condition, in addition to obtaining regulatory
approvals prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with or
acquisitions of other financial institutions. This regulation and supervision
establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can
engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the SAIF and depositors.
The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive
discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and
examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of
assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory
purposes. Any change in regulations, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or any other
government agency, could have a material adverse impact on our operations.
54
<PAGE>
Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The FDIC is authorized to establish
separate annual assessment rates for deposit insurance for members of the BIF
and the SAIF. The FDIC may increase assessment rates for either fund if
necessary to restore the fund's ratio of reserves to insured deposits to its
target level within a reasonable time and may decrease such assessment rates if
such target level has been met. The FDIC has established a risk-based assessment
system for both SAIF and BIF members. Under this system, assessments are set
within a range, based on the risk the institution poses to its deposit insurance
fund. This risk level is determined based on the institution's capital level and
the FDIC's level of supervisory concern about the institution.
Because a significant portion of the assessments paid into the SAIF by
savings institutions were used to pay the cost of prior savings institution
failures, the reserves of the SAIF were below the level required by law. The BIF
had, however, met its required reserve level during the third calendar quarter
of 1995. As a result, deposit insurance premiums for deposits insured by the BIF
were substantially less than premiums for deposits such as ours which are
insured by the SAIF. Legislation to capitalize the SAIF and to eliminate the
significant premium disparity between the BIF and the SAIF became effective
September 30, 1996. The recapitalization plan provided for a special assessment
equal to $.657 per $100 of SAIF deposits held at March 31, 1995, in order to
increase SAIF reserves to the level required by law. Certain BIF institutions
holding SAIF-insured deposits were required to pay a lower special assessment.
Based on our deposits at March 31, 1995, we paid a pre-tax special assessment of
$161,000.
The recapitalization plan also provides that the cost of prior failures
which were funded through the issuance of Fico Bonds (bonds issued to fund the
cost of savings institution failures in prior years) will be shared by members
of both the SAIF and the BIF. This will increase BIF assessments for healthy
banks to approximately $.013 per $100 of deposits in 1997. SAIF assessments for
healthy savings institutions in 1997 will be approximately $.064 per $100 in
deposits and may be reduced, but not below the level set for healthy BIF
institutions.
The FDIC has lowered the rates on assessments paid to the SAIF and
widened the spread of those rates. The FDIC's action established a base
assessment schedule for the SAIF with rates ranging from 4 to 31 basis points,
and an adjusted assessment schedule that reduces these rates by 4 basis points.
As a result, the effective SAIF rates range from 0 to 27 basis points as of
October 1, 1996. In addition, the FDIC's final rule prescribed a special interim
schedule of rates ranging from 18 to 27 basis points for SAIF-member savings
institutions for the last quarter of calendar 1996, to reflect the assessments
paid to the Financing Corp. (Fico Bonds). Finally, the FDIC's action established
a procedure for making limited adjustments to the base assessment rates by
rulemaking without notice and comment, for both the SAIF and the BIF.
The recapitalization plan also provides for the merger of the SAIF and
BIF effective January 1, 1999, assuming there are no savings institutions under
federal law. Under separate proposed legislation, Congress is considering the
elimination of the federal thrift charter and elimination of the separate
federal regulation of thrifts. As a result, we might have to convert to a
different financial institution charter and be regulated under federal law as a
bank, including being subject to the more restrictive activity limitations
imposed on national banks. We cannot predict the impact of our conversion to, or
regulation as, a bank until the legislation requiring such change is enacted.
Regulatory Capital Requirements. OTS capital regulations require
savings institutions to meet three capital standards: (1) tangible capital equal
to 1.5% of total adjusted assets, (2) core capital equal to at least 3% of total
adjusted assets, and (3) risk-based capital equal to 8% of total risk-weighted
assets. Our capital ratios are set forth under "Historical and Pro Forma Capital
Compliance."
55
<PAGE>
Tangible capital is defined as core capital less all intangible assets
(including supervisory goodwill), less certain mortgage servicing rights and
less certain investments. Core capital is defined as common stockholders' equity
(including retained earnings), noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and
minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, certain
nonwithdrawable accounts and pledged deposits of mutual savings associations and
qualifying supervisory goodwill, less nonqualifying intangible assets, certain
mortgage servicing rights and certain investments.
The risk-based capital standard for savings institutions requires the
maintenance of total risk-based capital (which is defined as core capital plus
supplementary capital) of 8% of risk-weighted assets. The components of
supplementary capital include, among other items, cumulative perpetual preferred
stock, perpetual subordinated debt, mandatory convertible subordinated debt,
intermediate-term preferred stock, and the portion of the allowance for loan
losses not designated for specific loan losses. The portion of the allowance for
loan and lease losses includable in supplementary capital is limited to a
maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Overall, supplementary capital is
limited to 100% of core capital. A savings association must calculate its
risk-weighted assets by multiplying each asset and off-balance sheet item by
various risk factors as determined by the OTS, which range from 0% for cash to
100% for delinquent loans, property acquired through foreclosure, commercial
loans, and other assets.
The risk-based capital standards of the OTS generally require savings
institutions with more than a "normal" level of interest rate risk to maintain
additional total capital. An institution's interest rate risk will be measured
in terms of the sensitivity of its "net portfolio value" to changes in interest
rates. Net portfolio value is defined, generally, as the present value of
expected cash inflows from existing assets and off-balance sheet contracts less
the present value of expected cash outflows from existing liabilities. A savings
institution will be considered to have a "normal" level of interest rate risk
exposure if the decline in its net portfolio value after an immediate 200 basis
point increase or decrease in market interest rates (whichever results in the
greater decline) is less than two percent of the current estimated economic
value of its assets. An institution with a greater than normal interest rate
risk will be required to deduct from total capital, for purposes of calculating
its risk-based capital requirement, an amount (the "interest rate risk
component") equal to one-half the difference between the institution's measured
interest rate risk and the normal level of interest rate risk, multiplied by the
economic value of its total assets.
The OTS calculates the sensitivity of an institution's net portfolio
value based on data submitted by the institution in a schedule to its quarterly
Thrift Financial Report and using the interest rate risk measurement model
adopted by the OTS. The amount of the interest rate risk component, if any, to
be deducted from an institution's total capital will be based on the
institution's Thrift Financial Report filed two quarters earlier. Savings
institutions with less than $300 million in assets and a risk-based capital
ratio above 12% are generally exempt from filing the interest rate risk schedule
with their Thrift Financial Reports. However, the OTS may require any exempt
institution that it determines may have a high level of interest rate risk
exposure to file such schedule on a quarterly basis and may be subject to an
additional capital requirement based upon its level of interest rate risk as
compared to its peers. However, due to our net size and risk-based capital
level, we are exempt from the interest rate risk component.
Dividend and Other Capital Distribution Limitations. OTS regulations
require us to give the OTS 30 days advance notice of any proposed declaration of
dividends to WSB, and the OTS has the authority under its supervisory powers to
prohibit the payment of dividends by us to WSB. In addition, we may not declare
or pay a cash dividend on our capital stock if the effect would be to reduce our
56
<PAGE>
regulatory capital below the amount required for the liquidation account to be
established at the time of the ^ conversion. See "The Conversion -- Effects of
Conversion to Stock Form on Depositors and Borrowers of Workingmens Savings
Bank, FSB -- Liquidation Account."
OTS regulations impose limitations upon all capital distributions by
savings institutions, such as cash dividends, payments to repurchase or
otherwise acquire its shares, payments to stockholders of another institution in
a cash-out merger, and other distributions charged against capital. The rule
establishes three tiers of institutions based primarily on an institution's
capital level. An institution that exceeds all fully phased-in capital
requirements before and after a proposed capital distribution ("Tier 1
institution") and has not been advised by the OTS that it is in need of more
than the normal supervision can, after prior notice but without the approval of
the OTS, make capital distributions during a calendar year equal to the greater
of (i) 100% of its net income to date during the calendar year plus the amount
that would reduce by one-half its "surplus capital ratio" (the excess capital
over its fully phased-in capital requirements) at the beginning of the calendar
year, or (ii) 75% of its net income over the most recent four quarter period.
Any additional capital distributions require prior regulatory notice. As of ^
March 31, ^ 1997, we qualified as a Tier 1 institution.
In the event our capital falls below our fully phased-in requirement or
the OTS notifies us that we are in need of more than normal supervision, we
would become a Tier 2 or Tier 3 institution and as a result, our ability to make
capital distributions could be restricted. Tier 2 institutions, which are
institutions that before and after the proposed distribution meet their current
minimum capital requirements, may only make capital distributions of up to 75%
of net income over the most recent four quarter period. Tier 3 institutions,
which are institutions that do not meet current minimum capital requirements and
propose to make any capital distribution, and Tier 2 institutions that propose
to make a capital distribution in excess of the noted safe harbor level, must
obtain OTS approval prior to making such distribution. In addition, the OTS
could prohibit a proposed capital distribution by any institution, which would
otherwise be permitted by the regulation, if the OTS determines that such
distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. The OTS has
proposed rules relaxing certain approval and notice requirements for
well-capitalized institutions.
A savings institution is prohibited from making a capital distribution
if, after making the distribution, the savings institution would be
undercapitalized (i.e., not meet any one of its minimum regulatory capital
requirements). Further, a savings institution cannot distribute regulatory
capital that is needed for its liquidation account.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. Savings institutions must meet a
qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test. If we maintain an appropriate level of
qualified thrift investments ("QTIs") (primarily residential mortgages and
related investments, including certain mortgage-related securities) and
otherwise qualify as a QTL, we will continue to enjoy full borrowing privileges
from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. The required percentage of QTIs is 65% of portfolio
assets (defined as all assets minus intangible assets, property used by the
institution in conducting its business and liquid assets equal to 10% of total
assets). Certain assets are subject to a percentage limitation of 20% of
portfolio assets. In addition, savings institutions may include shares of stock
of the FHLBs, FNMA, and FHLMC as QTIs. Compliance with the QTL test is
determined on a monthly basis in nine out of every 12 months. As of March 31,
1997, we were in compliance with our QTL requirement with approximately 88.55%
of our assets invested in QTIs.
Transactions With Affiliates. Generally, restrictions on transactions
with affiliates require that transactions between a savings institution or its
subsidiaries and its affiliates be on terms as favorable to
57
<PAGE>
the savings institution as comparable transactions with non-affiliates. In
addition, certain of these transactions are restricted to an aggregate
percentage of the savings institution's capital. Collateral in specified amounts
must usually be provided by affiliates in order to receive loans from the
savings institution. Our affiliates include WSB and any company which would be
under common control with us. In addition, a savings institution may not extend
credit to any affiliate engaged in activities not permissible for a bank holding
company or acquire the securities of any affiliate that is not a subsidiary. The
OTS has the discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings institution as
affiliates on a case-by-case basis.
Liquidity Requirements. All savings institutions are required to
maintain an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a certain percentage
of the sum of its average daily balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and
borrowings payable in one year or less. The liquidity requirement may vary from
time to time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings
flows of all savings institutions. At March 31, 1997, our required liquid asset
ratio was 5.0% and our actual ratio was 25.40%. Monetary penalties may be
imposed upon ^ institutions for violations of liquidity requirements.
Federal Home Loan Savings Bank System. We are a member of the FHLB of
Pittsburgh, which is one of 12 regional FHLBs. Each FHLB serves as a reserve or
central bank for its members within its assigned region. It is funded primarily
from funds deposited by savings institutions and proceeds derived from the sale
of consolidated obligations of the FHLB System. It makes loans to members (i.e.,
advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by the board of
directors of the FHLB.
As a member, we are required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB
of Pittsburgh in an amount equal to at least 1% of our aggregate unpaid
residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts or similar obligations at
the beginning of each year. At March 31, 1997, we had $153,000 in FHLB stock, at
cost, which was in compliance with this requirement. The FHLB imposes various
limitations on advances such as limiting the amount of certain types of real
estate related collateral to 30% of a member's capital and limiting total
advances to a member.
The FHLBs are required to provide funds for the resolution of troubled
savings institutions and to contribute to affordable housing programs through
direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment
and low- and moderate-income housing projects. These contributions have
adversely affected the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so
in the future.
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve System requires all
depository institutions to maintain non-interest bearing reserves at specified
levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW
checking accounts) and non-personal time deposits. The balances maintained to
meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve System may be used
to satisfy the liquidity requirements that are imposed by the OTS. At March 31,
1997, our reserve met the minimum level required by the Federal Reserve System.
Savings institutions have authority to borrow from the Federal Reserve
System "discount window," but Federal Reserve System policy generally requires
savings institutions to exhaust all other sources before borrowing from the
Federal Reserve System. We had no borrowings from the Federal Reserve System at
March 31, 1997.
58
<PAGE>
TAXATION
Federal Taxation
We are subject to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), in the same general manner as other corporations.
However, prior to August 1996, savings institutions such as us, which met
certain definitional tests and other conditions prescribed by the Code could
benefit from certain favorable provisions regarding their deductions from
taxable income for annual additions to their bad debt reserve. The amount of the
bad debt deduction that a qualifying savings institution could claim with
respect to additions to its reserve for bad debts was subject to certain
limitations. We reviewed the most favorable way to calculate the deduction
attributable to an addition to our bad debt reserve on an annual basis.
In August 1996, the Code was revised to equalize the taxation of
thrifts and banks. Thrifts, such as us, no longer have a choice between the
percentage of taxable income method and the experience method in determining
additions to bad debt reserves. Thrifts with $500 million of assets or less may
still use the experience method, which is generally available to small banks
currently. Larger thrifts must use the specific charge off method regarding bad
debts. Any reserve amounts added after 1987 will be taxed over a six year period
beginning in 1996; however, bad debt reserves set aside through 1987 are
generally not taxed. A savings institution may delay recapturing into income its
post-1987 bad debt reserves for an additional two years if it meets a
residential-lending test. This law is not expected to have a material impact on
us. At March 31, 1997, we had no post 1987 bad-debt reserves.
Under the percentage of taxable income method, the bad debt deduction
attributable to "qualifying real property loans" could not exceed the greater of
(i) the amount deductible under the experience method, or (ii) the amount which,
when added to the bad debt deduction for non-qualifying loans, equaled the
amount by which 12% of the sum of the total deposits and the advance payments by
borrowers for taxes and insurance at the end of the taxable year exceeded the
sum of the surplus, undivided profits and reserves at the beginning of the
taxable year. The amount of the bad debt deduction attributable to qualifying
real property loans computed using the percentage of taxable income method was
permitted only to the extent that the institution's reserve for losses on
qualifying real property loans at the close of the taxable year did not exceed
6% of such loans outstanding at such time.
Under the experience method, the bad debt deduction may be based on (i)
a six-year moving average of actual losses on qualifying and non-qualifying
loans, or (ii) a fill-up to the institution's base year reserve amount, which is
the tax bad debt reserve determined as of December 31, 1987.
The percentage of specially computed taxable income that was used to
compute a savings institution's bad debt reserve deduction under the percentage
of taxable income method (the "percentage bad debt deduction") was 8%. The
percentage of taxable income bad debt deduction thus computed was reduced by the
amount permitted as a deduction for non-qualifying loans under the experience
method. The availability of the percentage of taxable income method permitted
qualifying savings institutions to be taxed at a lower effective federal income
tax rate than that applicable to corporations generally (approximately 31.3%
assuming the maximum percentage bad debt deduction).
If a savings institution's qualifying assets (generally, loans secured
by residential real estate or deposits, educational loans, cash and certain
government obligations) constitute less than 60% of its total assets, the
institution may not deduct any addition to a bad debt reserve and generally must
include existing reserves in income over a four year period, which is
immediately accruable for financial
59
<PAGE>
reporting purposes. As of March 31, 1997, at least 60% of our assets were
qualifying assets as defined in the Code. No assurance can be given that we will
meet the 60% test for subsequent taxable years.
Earnings appropriated to our bad debt reserve and claimed as a tax
deduction including our supplemental reserves for losses will not be available
for the payment of cash dividends or for distribution to you, our stockholders
(including distributions made on dissolution or liquidation), unless we include
the amount in income, along with the amount deemed necessary to pay the
resulting federal income tax. As of March 31, 1997, we had $419,000 of
accumulated earnings, representing our base year tax reserve, for which federal
income taxes have not been provided. If such amount is used for any purpose
other than bad debt losses, including a dividend distribution or a distribution
in liquidation, it will be subject to federal income tax at the then current
rate.
Generally, for taxable years beginning after 1986, the Code also
requires most corporations, including savings institutions, to utilize the
accrual method of accounting for tax purposes. Further, for taxable years ending
after 1986, the Code disallows 100% of a savings institution's interest expense
deemed allocated to certain tax-exempt obligations acquired after August 7,
1986. Interest expense allocable to (i) tax-exempt obligations acquired after
August 7, 1986 which are not subject to this rule, and (ii) tax-exempt
obligations issued after 1982 but before August 8, 1986, are subject to the rule
which applied prior to the Code disallowing the deductibility of 20% of the
interest expense.
The Code imposes a tax ("AMT") on alternative minimum taxable income
("AMTI") at a rate of 20%. AMTI is increased by certain preference items,
including the excess of the tax bad debt reserve deduction using the percentage
of taxable income method over the deduction that would have been allowable under
the experience method. Only 90% of AMTI can be offset by net operating loss
carryovers of which we currently have none. AMTI is also adjusted by determining
the tax treatment of certain items in a manner that negates the deferral of
income resulting from the regular tax treatment of those items. Thus, our AMTI
is increased by an amount equal to 75% of the amount by which our adjusted
current earnings exceeds our AMTI (determined without regard to this adjustment
and prior to reduction for net operating losses). In addition, for taxable years
beginning after December 31, 1986 and before January 1, 1996, an environmental
tax of 0.12% of the excess of AMTI (with certain modifications) over $2 million
is imposed on corporations, including us, whether or not an AMT is paid. Under
pending legislation, the AMT rate would be reduced to zero for taxable years
beginning after December 31, 1994, but this rate reduction would be suspended
for taxable years beginning in 1995 and 1996 and the suspended amounts would be
refunded as tax credits in subsequent years.
WSB may exclude from its income 100% of dividends received from us as a
member of the same affiliated group of corporations. A 70% dividends received
deduction generally applies with respect to dividends received from corporations
that are not members of such affiliated group, except that an 80% dividends
received deduction applies if WSB owns more than 20% of the stock of a
corporation paying a dividend. The above exclusion amounts, with the exception
of the affiliated group figure, were reduced in years in which we availed
ourself of the percentage of taxable income bad debt deduction method.
Our federal income tax returns have not been audited by the IRS since
our fiscal year ended 1992. There was no material effect to our financial
statements, as a result of the audit.
State Taxation
We are subject to the Mutual Thrift Institutions Tax of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania based on our financial net income determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles with
60
<PAGE>
certain adjustments. Our tax rate under the Mutual Thrift Institutions Tax is
11.5%. Interest on state and federal obligations is excluded from net income. An
allocable portion of net interest expense incurred to carry the obligations is
disallowed as a deduction. Three year carryforwards of losses are allowed.
Upon consummation of the ^ conversion, we will also be subject to the
Corporate Net Income Tax and the Capital Stock Tax of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
MANAGEMENT OF WSB HOLDING COMPANY
Our board of directors consists of the same individuals who serve as
directors of our subsidiary, Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB. Our articles of
incorporation and bylaws require that directors be divided into four classes, as
nearly equal in number as possible. Each class of directors serves for a
four-year period, with approximately one-fourth of the directors elected each
year. Our officers will be elected annually by the board and serve at the
board's discretion. See "Management of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB."
MANAGEMENT OF WORKINGMENS SAVINGS BANK, FSB
Directors and Executive Officers
Our board of directors is composed of six members each of whom serves

- --------------------
(1) Aggregate value does not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 10% of Mr.
Neudorfer's total salary and bonus.
Employment Agreement. We have entered into an employment agreement with
our President, Robert Neudorfer. Mr. Neudorfer's base salary under the
employment agreement is $60,000. The agreement has a term of three years and is
terminable by us for "just cause". If we terminate Mr. Neudorfer without just
cause, he will be entitled to a continuation of his base salary from the date of
termination through the remaining term of the agreement.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan. We have established an employee stock
ownership plan, the ESOP, for the exclusive benefit of participating ^ employees
of ours, to be implemented upon the completion of the ^ conversion.
Participating employees are employees who have completed one year of service
with us or our subsidiary and have attained the age of 21. An application for a
letter of determination as to the tax-qualified status of the ESOP will be
submitted to the IRS. Although no assurances can be given, we expect that the
ESOP will receive a favorable letter of determination from the IRS.
The ESOP is to be funded by contributions made by us in cash or common
stock. Benefits may be paid either in shares of the common stock or in cash. In
accordance with the Plan, the ESOP may borrow funds with which to acquire up to
8% of the common stock to be issued in the ^ conversion. The ESOP intends to
borrow funds from WSB. The loan is expected to be for a term of ten years at an
annual interest rate equal to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street
Journal. Presently it is anticipated that the ESOP will purchase up to 8% of the
common stock to be issued in the offering (i.e., $200,000, based on the midpoint
of the EVR). The loan will be secured by the shares purchased and earnings of
ESOP assets. Shares purchased with such loan proceeds will be held in a suspense
account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. We anticipate
contributing approximately $20,000 annually (based on a $200,000 purchase) to
the ESOP to meet principal obligations under the ESOP loan, as proposed. It is
anticipated that all such contributions will be tax-deductible. This loan is
expected to be fully repaid in approximately 10 years.
Shares sold above the maximum of the EVR (i.e., more than 287,500
shares) may be sold to the ESOP before satisfying remaining unfilled orders of
Eligible Account Holders to fill the ESOP's subscription or the ESOP may
purchase some or all of the shares covered by its subscription after the ^
conversion in the open market.
63
<PAGE>
Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from the suspense account
will be allocated among participants on the basis of total compensation. All
participants must be employed at least 1,000 hours in a plan year, or have
terminated employment following death, disability or retirement, in order to
receive an allocation. Participant benefits become vested in plan payments as
follows: after 3 years - 20%, 4 years - 40%, 5 years - 60%, 6 years - 80% and 7
years -100%. Employment prior to the adoption of the ESOP shall be credited for
the purposes of vesting. Vesting will be accelerated upon retirement, death,
disability, change in control of WSB, or termination of the ESOP. Forfeitures
will be reallocated to participants on the same basis as other contributions in
the plan year. Benefits may be payable in the form of a lump sum upon
retirement, death, disability or separation from service. Our contributions to
the ESOP are discretionary and may cause a reduction in other forms of
compensation.
Therefore, benefits payable under the ESOP cannot be estimated.
The board of directors has appointed non-employee directors to the ESOP
Committee to administer the ESOP and to serve as the initial ESOP Trustees. The
board of directors or the ESOP Committee may instruct the ESOP Trustees
regarding investments of funds contributed to the ESOP. The ESOP Trustees must
vote all allocated shares held in the ESOP in accordance with the instructions
of the participating employees. Unallocated shares and allocated shares for
which no timely direction is received will be voted by the ESOP Trustees as
directed by the board of directors or the ESOP Committee, subject to the
Trustees' fiduciary duties.
Pension Plan. We sponsor a tax-qualified defined benefit pension plan
(the "Pension Plan"). All our full-time employees are eligible to participate
after six months of service and attainment of age 20 1/2. A qualifying employee
becomes fully vested in the Pension Plan upon completion of ^ seven years of
qualifying service. The Pension Plan is intended to comply with the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA").
Our Pension Plan provides for monthly payments to each participating
employee at normal retirement age (age 65). Upon termination at or after age 65
and completion of 25 or more years of service, the annual retirement benefit
would be determined based upon 42.8% of a participant's Final Average
Compensation. Retirement benefits at age 65 with less than 25 years of service
are reduced proportionately.
Benefits are paid for the life of the participant following retirement.
The Pension Plan also provides for payments in the event of death. At March 31,
1997, Mr. Neudorfer had 22 years of credited service under the Pension Plan and
the monthly benefit payable to Mr. Neudorfer at normal retirement age would have
been ^ $1,567.
Benefits are payable in the form of various annuity alternatives,
including a joint and survivor option. For the Pension Plan year ended March 31,
1997, the highest permissible annual benefit under the Internal Revenue Code is
$120,000. Benefits under the Pension Plan are not subject to offset for Social
Security benefits.
Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans
Stock Option Plan. The boards of directors intend to adopt a stock
option plan (the Option Plan) following the ^ conversion, subject to approval ^
by WSB's stockholders, at a stockholders meeting to be held no sooner than six
months after the ^ conversion. The Option Plan would be in compliance with the
OTS regulations in effect. See "-- Restrictions on Stock Benefit Plans." If the
Option Plan is implemented within one year after the ^ conversion, in accordance
with OTS regulations, a number of shares equal to
64
<PAGE>
10% of the aggregate shares of common stock to be issued in the ^ offering
(i.e., 25,000 shares based upon the sale of 250,000 shares at the midpoint of
the EVR) would be reserved for issuance by WSB upon exercise of stock options to
be granted to our officers, directors and employees from time to time under the
Option Plan. The purpose of the Option Plan would be to provide additional
performance and retention incentives to certain officers, directors and
employees by facilitating their purchase of a stock interest in WSB. Under the
OTS regulations, the Option Plan, would provide for a term of 10 years, after
which no awards could be made, unless earlier terminated by the board of
directors pursuant to the Option Plan and the options would vest over a five
year period (i.e., 20% per year), beginning one year after the date of grant of
the option. Options would be granted based upon several factors, including
seniority, job duties and responsibilities, job performance, our financial
performance and a comparison of awards given by other savings institutions
converting from mutual to stock form.
WSB would receive no monetary consideration for the granting of stock
options under the Option Plan. It would receive the option price for each share
issued to optionees upon the exercise of such options. Shares issued as a result
of the exercise of options will be either authorized but unissued shares or
shares purchased in the open market by WSB. However, no purchases in the open
market will be made that would violate applicable regulations restricting
purchases by WSB. The exercise of options and payment for the shares received
would contribute to the equity of WSB.
If the Option Plan is implemented more than one year after the ^
conversion, the Option Plan will comply with OTS regulations and policies that
are applicable at such time.
Restricted Stock Plan. The board of directors intends to adopt the RSP
following the ^ conversion, the objective of which is to enable us to retain
personnel and directors of experience and ability in key positions of
responsibility. WSB expects to hold a stockholders' meeting no sooner than six
months after the ^ conversion in order for stockholders to vote to approve the
RSP. If the RSP is implemented within one year after the ^ conversion, in
accordance with applicable OTS regulations, the shares granted under the RSP
will be in the form of restricted stock vesting over a five year period (i.e.,
20% per year) beginning one year after the date of grant of the award.
Compensation expense in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock
granted will be recognized pro rata over the years during which the shares are
payable. Until they have vested, such shares may not be sold, pledged or
otherwise disposed of and are required to be held in escrow. Any shares not so
allocated would be voted by the RSP Trustees. The RSP will be implemented in
accordance with applicable OTS regulations. See "-- Restrictions on Stock
Benefit Plans." Awards would be granted based upon a number of factors,
including seniority, job duties and responsibilities, job performance, our
performance and a comparison of awards given by other institutions converting
from mutual to stock form. The RSP would be managed by a committee of
non-employee directors (the "RSP Trustees"). The RSP Trustees would have the
responsibility to invest all funds contributed by us to the trust created for
the RSP (the "RSP Trust").
We expect to contribute sufficient funds to the RSP so that the RSP
Trust can purchase, in the aggregate, up to 4% of the amount of common stock
that is sold in the ^ conversion. The shares purchased by the RSP would be
authorized but unissued shares or would be purchased in the open market. In the
event the market price of the common stock is greater than $10.00 per share, our
contribution of funds will be increased. Likewise, in the event the market price
is lower than $10.00 per share, our contribution will be decreased. In
recognition of their prior and expected services to us and WSB, as the case may
be, the officers, other employees and directors responsible for implementation
of the policies adopted by the board of directors and our profitable operation
will, without cost to them, be awarded stock under the RSP. Based upon the sale
of 250,000 shares of common stock in the offering at the midpoint of the EVR,
the RSP Trust is expected to purchase up to 10,000 shares of common stock.
65
<PAGE>
If the RSP is implemented more than one year after the ^ conversion,
the RSP will comply with such OTS regulations and policies that are applicable
at such time.
Restrictions on Stock Benefit Plans. OTS regulations provide that in
the event stock option or management and/or employee stock benefit plans are
implemented within one year from the date of ^ conversion, such plans must
comply with the following restrictions: (1) the plans must be fully disclosed in
the prospectus, (2) for stock option plans, the total number of shares for which
options may be granted may not exceed 10% of the shares issued in the ^
conversion, (3) for restricted stock plans, the shares may not exceed 3% of the
shares issued in the ^ conversion (4% for institutions with 10% or greater
tangible capital), (4) the aggregate amount of stock purchased by the ESOP in
the ^ conversion may not exceed 10% (8% for well-capitalized institutions
utilizing a 4% restricted stock plan), (5) no individual employee may receive
more than 25% of the available awards under the option plan or the restricted
stock plans, (6) directors who are not employees may not receive more than 5%
individually or 30% in the aggregate of the awards under any plan, (7) all plans
must be approved by a majority of the total votes eligible to be cast at any
duly called meeting of WSB's stockholders held no earlier than six months
following the ^ conversion, (8) for stock option plans, the exercise price must
be at least equal to the market price of the stock at the time of grant, (9) for
restricted stock plans, no stock issued in a conversion may be used to fund the
plan, (10) neither stock option awards nor restricted stock awards may vest
earlier than 20% as of one year after the date of stockholder approval and 20%
per year thereafter, and vesting may be accelerated only in the case of
disability or death (or if not inconsistent with applicable OTS regulations in
effect at such time, in the event of a change in control), (11) the proxy
material must clearly state that the OTS in no way endorses or approves of the
plans, and (12) prior to implementing the plans, all plans must be submitted to
the Regional Director of the OTS within five days after stockholder approval
with a certification that the plans approved by the stockholders are the same
plans that were filed with and disclosed in the proxy materials relating to the
meeting at which stockholder approval was received.
RESTRICTIONS ON ACQUISITIONS OF WSB HOLDING COMPANY
While the board of directors is not aware of any effort that might be
made to obtain control of WSB after ^ conversion, the board of directors
believes that it is appropriate to include certain provisions as part of WSB's
articles of incorporation to protect the interests of WSB and its stockholders
from hostile takeovers ("anti-takeover"provisions) which the board of directors
might conclude are not in the best interests of us or our stockholders. These
provisions may have the effect of discouraging a future takeover attempt which
is not approved by the board of directors but which individual stockholders may
deem to be in their best interests or in which stockholders may receive a
substantial premium for their shares over the current market prices. As a
result, stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may
not have an opportunity to do so. Such provisions will also render the removal
of the current board of directors or management of WSB more difficult.
The following discussion is a general summary of the material
provisions of the articles of incorporation, bylaws, and certain other
regulatory provisions of WSB, which may be deemed to have such an anti-takeover
effect. The description of these provisions is necessarily general and reference
should be made in each case to the articles of incorporation and bylaws of WSB
which are incorporated herein by reference. See "Where You Can Find Additional
Information" as to how to obtain a copy of these documents.
66
<PAGE>
Provisions of WSB Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
Limitations on Voting Rights. The articles of incorporation of WSB
provide that for a period of five years from completion of the ^ conversion, in
no event shall any record owner of any outstanding equity security which is
beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by a person who beneficially owns in
excess of 10% of any class of equity security outstanding (the "Limit") be
entitled or permitted to any vote in respect of the shares held in excess of the
Limit. The number of votes which may be cast by any record owner who
beneficially owned shares in excess of the Limit shall be a number equal to the
total number of votes which a single record owner of all common stock owned by
such person would be entitled to cast, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the number of shares of such class or series which are both
beneficially owned by such person and owned of record by such record owner and
the denominator of which is the total number of shares of common stock
beneficially owned by such person owning shares in excess of the Limit. In
addition, for a period of five years from the completion of our ^ conversion, no
person may directly or indirectly offer to acquire or acquire the beneficial
ownership of more than 10% of any class of an equity security of WSB.
The impact of these provisions on the submission of a proxy on behalf
of a beneficial holder of more than 10% of the common stock is (1) to disregard
for voting purposes and require divestiture of the amount of stock held in
excess of 10% (if within five years of the ^ conversion more than 10% of the
common stock is beneficially owned by a person) and (2) limit the vote on common
stock held by the beneficial owner to 10% or possibly reduce the amount that may
be voted below the 10% level (if more than 10% of the common stock is
beneficially owned by a person more than five years after the ^ conversion).
Unless the grantor of a revocable proxy is an affiliate or an associate of such
a 10% holder or there is an arrangement, agreement or understanding with such a
10% holder, these provisions would not restrict the ability of such a 10% holder
of revocable proxies to exercise revocable proxies for which the 10% holder is
neither a beneficial nor record owner. A person is a beneficial owner of a
security if he has the power to vote or direct the voting of all or part of the
voting rights of the security, or has the power to dispose of or direct the
disposition of the security. The articles of incorporation of WSB further
provide that this provision limiting voting rights may only be amended upon the
vote of 80% of the outstanding shares of voting stock.
Election of Directors. Certain provisions of WSB's articles of
incorporation and bylaws will impede changes in majority control of the board of
directors. WSB's articles of incorporation provide that the board of directors
of WSB will be divided into four staggered classes, with directors in each class
elected for four-year terms. Thus, it would take three annual elections to
replace a majority of WSB's board. WSB's articles of incorporation ^ provide
that the size of the board of directors may be increased or decreased only if
two-thirds of the directors then in office concur in such action. The articles
of incorporation also provide that any vacancy occurring in the board of
directors, including a vacancy created by an increase in the number of
directors, shall be filled for the remainder of the unexpired term by a majority
vote of the directors then in office. Finally, the articles of incorporation and
the bylaws impose certain notice and information requirements in connection with
the nomination by stockholders of candidates for election to the board of
directors or the proposal by stockholders of business to be acted upon at an
annual meeting of stockholders.
The articles of incorporation ^ provide that a director may only be
removed for cause by the affirmative vote of at least 80% of the shares of WSB
entitled to vote generally in an election of directors cast at a meeting of
stockholders called for that purpose.
67
<PAGE>
Restrictions on Call of Special Meetings. The articles of incorporation
of WSB provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only
pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the board of directors, or a
Committee of the board.
Absence of Cumulative Voting. WSB's articles of incorporation ^ provide
that stockholders may not cumulate their votes in the election of directors.
Authorized Shares. The articles of incorporation authorizes the
issuance of 4,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred
stock. The shares of common stock and preferred stock were authorized in an
amount greater than that to be issued in the ^ conversion to provide ^ WSB's
board of directors with as much flexibility as possible to effect, among other
transactions, financings, acquisitions, stock dividends, stock splits and the
exercise of stock options. However, these additional authorized shares may also
be used by the board of directors consistent with its fiduciary duty to deter
future attempts to gain control of WSB. The board of directors also has sole
authority to determine the terms of any one or more series of Preferred Stock,
including voting rights, conversion rates, and liquidation preferences. As a
result of the ability to fix voting rights for a series of Preferred Stock, the
board has the power, to the extent consistent with its fiduciary duty, to issue
a series of Preferred Stock to persons friendly to management in order to
attempt to block a post-tender offer merger or other transaction by which a
third party seeks control, and thereby assist management to retain its
position.^
Procedures for Certain Business Combinations. The articles of
incorporation require the affirmative vote of at least 80% of the outstanding
shares of WSB entitled to vote in the election of directors in order for WSB to
engage in or enter into certain "Business Combinations," as defined therein,
with any Principal Shareholder (as defined below) or any affiliates of the
Principal Shareholder, unless the proposed transaction has been approved in
advance by WSB's board of directors, excluding those who were not directors
prior to the time the Principal Shareholder became the Principal Shareholder.
The term "Principal Shareholder" is defined to include any person and the
affiliates and associates of the person (other than WSB or its subsidiary) who
beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the outstanding shares
of voting stock of WSB. Any amendment to this provision requires the affirmative
vote of at least 80% of the shares of WSB entitled to vote generally in an
election of directors.
Amendment to Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. Amendments to WSB's
articles of incorporation must be approved by WSB's board of directors and also
by a majority of the outstanding shares of WSB's voting stock, provided,
however, that approval by at least 80% of the outstanding voting stock is
generally required for certain provisions (i.e., provisions relating to
restrictions on the acquisition and voting of greater than 10% of the common
stock; number, classification, election and removal of directors; amendment of
Bylaws; call of special stockholder meetings; director liability; certain
business combinations; power of indemnification; and amendments to provisions
relating to the foregoing in the articles of incorporation).
The bylaws may be amended by a majority vote of the board of directors
or the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the outstanding shares
of WSB entitled to vote in the election of directors cast at a meeting called
for that purpose.
Benefit Plans. In addition to the provisions of WSB's articles of
incorporation and bylaws described above, certain benefit plans of ours adopted
in connection with the ^ conversion contain provisions which also may discourage
hostile takeover attempts which the boards of directors might conclude are not
in the best interests for us or our stockholders. For a description of the
benefit plans
68
<PAGE>
and the provisions of such plans relating to changes in control, see "Management
of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB - Proposed Future Stock Benefit Plans."
Regulatory Restrictions. A federal regulation prohibits any person
prior to the completion of a conversion from transferring, or entering into any
agreement or understanding to transfer, the legal or beneficial ownership of the
subscription rights issued under a plan of conversion or the stock to be issued
upon their exercise. This regulation also prohibits any person prior to the
completion of a conversion from offering, or making an announcement of an offer
or intent to make an offer, to purchase such subscription rights or stock. For
three years following conversion, OTS regulations prohibit any person, without
the prior approval of the OTS, from acquiring or making an offer to acquire more
than 10% of the stock of any converted savings institution if such person is, or
after consummation of such acquisition would be, the beneficial owner of more
than 10% of such stock. In the event that any person, directly or indirectly,
violates this regulation, the securities beneficially owned by such person in
excess of 10% shall not be counted as shares entitled to vote and shall not be
voted by any person or counted as voting shares in connection with any matter
submitted to a vote of stockholders.
Federal regulations require that, prior to obtaining control of an
insured institution, a person, other than a company, must give 60 days notice to
the OTS and have received no OTS objection to such acquisition of control, and a
company must apply for and receive OTS approval of the acquisition. Control,
involves a 25% voting stock test, control in any manner of the election of a
majority of the institution's directors, or a determination by the OTS that the
acquiror has the power to direct, or directly or indirectly to exercise a
controlling influence over, the management or policies of the institution.
Acquisition of more than 10% of an institution's voting stock, if the acquiror
also is subject to any one of either "control factors," constitutes a rebuttable
determination of control under the regulations. The determination of control may
be rebutted by submission to the OTS, prior to the acquisition of stock or the
occurrence of any other circumstances giving rise to such determination, of a
statement setting forth facts and circumstances which would support a finding
that no control relationship will exist and containing certain undertakings. The
regulations provide that persons or companies which acquire beneficial ownership
exceeding 10% or more of any class of a savings association's stock after the
effective date of the regulations must file with the OTS a certification that
the holder is not in control of such institution, is not subject to a rebuttable
determination of control and will take no action which would result in a
determination or rebuttable determination of control without prior notice to or
approval of the OTS, as applicable.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
WSB is authorized to issue 4,000,000 shares of the common stock, $0.10
par value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of serial preferred stock, $.10 par
value per share. WSB currently expects to issue up to 330,600 shares of common
stock in the ^ conversion . WSB does not intend to issue any shares of serial
preferred stock in the ^ conversion, nor are there any present plans to issue
such preferred stock following the ^ conversion. The aggregate par value of the
issued shares will constitute the capital account of WSB. The balance of the
purchase price will be recorded for accounting purposes as additional paid-in
capital. See "Capitalization." The capital stock of WSB will represent
nonwithdrawable capital and will not be insured by us, the FDIC, or any other
government agency.
69
<PAGE>
Common Stock
Voting Rights. Each share of the common stock will have the same
relative rights and will be identical in all respects with every other share of
the common stock. The holders of the common stock will possess exclusive voting
rights in WSB, except to the extent that shares of serial preferred stock issued
in the future may have voting rights, if any. Each holder of the common stock
will be entitled to only one vote for each share held of record on all matters
submitted to a vote of holders of the common stock and will not be permitted to
cumulate their votes in the election of WSB's directors.
Liquidation. In the unlikely event of the complete liquidation or
dissolution of WSB, the holders of the common stock will be entitled to receive
all assets of WSB available for distribution in cash or in kind, after payment
or provision for payment of (i) all debts and liabilities of WSB; (ii) any
accrued dividend claims; and (iii) liquidation preferences of any serial
preferred stock which may be issued in the future.
Restrictions on Acquisition of the Common Stock. See "Certain
Restrictions on Acquisition of WSB" for a discussion of the limitations on
acquisition of shares of the common stock.
Other Characteristics. Holders of the common stock will not have
preemptive rights with respect to any additional shares of the common stock
which may be issued. Therefore, the board of directors may sell shares of
capital stock of WSB without first offering such shares to existing stockholders
of WSB. The common stock is not subject to call for redemption, and the
outstanding shares of common stock when issued and upon receipt by WSB of the
full purchase price therefor will be fully paid and non-assessable.
Issuance of Additional Shares. Except in the Subscription and Public
Offerings and possibly pursuant to the RSP or Option Plan, the WSB has no
present plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings to issue additional
authorized shares of the common stock. In the future, the authorized but
unissued and unreserved shares of the common stock will be available for general
corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, possible issuance: (i) as
stock dividends; (ii) in connection with mergers or acquisitions; (iii) under a
cash dividend reinvestment or stock purchase plan; (iv) in a public or private
offering; or (v) under employee benefit plans. See "Risk Factors -- Possible
Dilutive Effect of RSP and Stock Options ^" and "Pro Forma Data." Normally no
stockholder approval would be required for the issuance of these shares, except
as described herein or as otherwise required to approve a transaction in which
additional authorized shares of the common stock are to be issued.
For additional information, see "Dividends," "Regulation" and
"Taxation" with respect to restrictions on the payment of cash dividends; ^"The
Conversion-- Restrictions on ^ Sales and Purchases of Shares by Directors and
Officers" relating to certain restrictions on the transferability of shares
purchased by directors and officers; and ^"Restrictions on ^ Acquisitions of WSB
Holding Company" for information regarding restrictions on acquiring common
stock of WSB.
Serial Preferred Stock
None of the 1,000,000 authorized shares of serial preferred stock of
WSB will be issued in the ^ conversion. After the ^ conversion is completed, the
board of directors of WSB will be authorized to issue serial preferred stock and
to fix and state voting powers, designations, preferences or other special
rights of such shares and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions
thereof, subject to regulatory approval but without stockholder approval. If and
when issued, the serial preferred stock is likely to rank prior
70
<PAGE>
to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preferences, or both, and
may have full or limited voting rights. The board of directors, without
stockholder approval, can issue serial preferred stock with voting and
conversion rights which could adversely affect the voting power of the holders
of the common stock. The board of directors has no present intention to issue
any of the serial preferred stock.
LEGAL AND TAX MATTERS
The legality of the common stock has been passed upon for us by
Malizia, Spidi, Sloane & Fisch, P.C., Washington, D.C. Certain legal matters for
Trident Securities, Inc. may be passed upon by Brooks, Pierce, McLendon,
Humphrey & Leonard, L.L.P., Greensboro, North Carolina. The federal and state
income tax consequences of the ^ conversion have been passed upon for us by
Malizia, Spidi, Sloane & Fisch, P.C., Washington, D.C.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
The Board of Directors
Workingmens Savings Bank, F.S.B. and Subsidiary
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Workingmens
Savings Bank, F.S.B. and Subsidiary ("Bank") at June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of income, changes in retained earnings, and
cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Bank's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Workingmens Savings
Bank, F.S.B. and Subsidiary at June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note O to the consolidated financial statements, the Bank
changed its method of accounting for investment securities in fiscal year 1995
as permitted by the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 115.

WORKINGMENS SAVINGS BANK, F.S.B. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of Workingmens Savings Bank and Subsidiary
(the "Bank") and the methods of applying those policies conform with generally
accepted accounting principles. The accounting and reporting policies and the
methods of applying those policies which significantly affect the determination
of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows are summarized
below.
The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1997 and the related consolidated
statement of income, changes in retained earnings and cash flows for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 and the related statement of income and cash flows
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 are unaudited and have been prepared in
accordance with the requirements for a presentation of interim financial
statements and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods
have been reflected.
Nature of Operations
Workingmens Savings Bank, F.S.B. is a federally chartered, Savings Association
Insurance Fund (SAIF) insured mutual savings bank conducting its business from
its two locations in the Northside section of the City of Pittsburgh and South
Hills suburb of Pittsburgh. The Bank's principal sources of revenue emanate from
its portfolio of residential real estate mortgage loans and investment
securities.
The Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. In connection with
the determination of the allowance for loan losses, management obtains
independent appraisals for significant properties.
A majority of the Bank's loan portfolio consists of single-family residential
loans in the Pittsburgh area. The regional economy is currently stable and
consists of various types of industry. Real estate prices in this market are
also stable, however, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of
the Bank's loan portfolio are susceptible to changes in local market conditions.
While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and
foreclosed real estate, further reductions in the carrying amounts of loans and
foreclosed assets may be necessary based on changes in local economic
conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically, review the estimated losses on loans and
foreclosed real estate. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize
additional losses based on their judgments about information available to them
at the time of their examination. Because of these factors, it is reasonably
possible that the estimated losses on loans and foreclosed real estate may
change materially in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is
reasonably possible cannot be estimated.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Bank and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Workingmens Service Corporation. Intercompany balances
and transactions have been eliminated. Workingmens Service Corporation is
currently inactive and its impact on the consolidated financial statements is
insignificant.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Bank considers cash on hand and
deposits in other financial institutions with an original maturity of ninety
(90) days or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities
Effective July 1, 1994, the Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities". Pursuant to Statement 115 management determines the
appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates
such designation as of each balance sheet date. Debt securities are classified
as held-to-maturity when the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold
the securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at amortized
cost.
Debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as
available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, with
the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of
retained earnings.
The amortized cost of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity or
available-for-sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts to maturity, or in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the
estimated life of the security. Such amortization is included in interest income
from investments. Interest and dividends are included in interest income from
investments. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be
other-than-temporary are included in gain (loss) on sale of investments. The
cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.
In October, 1994 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 119, "Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of
Financial Instruments." SFAS No. 119 established disclosures about derivatives
and other financial instruments. Derivatives are various instruments used to
construct a transaction that is derived from and reflects the underlying value
of assets, other instruments or various indices. The primary purpose of
derivatives, which include such items as forward contracts, interest rate swaps,
options and futures, is to transfer price risk associated with the fluctuations
in asset values rather than to borrow or lend funds. At present, the Bank does
not invest in such derivative instruments for trading, investing, hedging or
other purposes.

Loans Receivable
Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for
loan losses and net deferred loan-origination fees.
Loan origination fees, as well as certain direct origination costs, are deferred
and amortized as a yield adjustment over the contractual lives of the related
loans using the interest method.
Uncollected interest on loans is periodically reviewed. An allowance is
established based on management's periodic evaluation for interest deemed
uncollectible. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal
to all interest previously accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only
to the extent cash payments are received until, in management's judgment, the
borrower is able to make periodic interest and principal repayments, as
scheduled, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status.
The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by
charge-offs (net of recoveries). Management's periodic evaluation of the
adequacy of the allowance is based on the Bank's past loan loss experience,
known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect
the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying
collateral, and current economic conditions. Allowances for impaired loans are
generally determined based on collateral values or the present value of
estimated cash flows. While management believes it uses the best information
available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowances may be
necessary if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in
making the evaluations.
Effective July 1, 1995, the Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended
by Statement No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income
Recognition and Disclosures. These Statements prescribe recognition criteria for
loan impairment, generally related to commercial loans, and multi-family real
estate loans, and measurement methods for certain impaired loans and all loans
whose terms are modified in trouble debt restructurings subsequent to the
adoption of these Statements. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable
that the borrower will not repay the loan according to the original contractual
terms of the loan agreement.
Management has determined that first mortgage loans on one-to-four family
properties, home equity, second mortgage loans, and all consumer loans are large
groups of smaller-balance homogenous loans are to be collectively evaluated.
Accordingly, such loans are outside the scope of Statement Nos. 114 and 118.
Management considers an insignificant delay, which is determined as 90 days by
the Bank, will not cause a loan to be classified as impaired. A loan is not
impaired during a period of delay in payment if the Bank expects to collect all
amounts due including interest accrued at the contractual interest rate for the
period of delay. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently by
management.
Under this Standard, the Bank estimates credit losses on impaired loans based on
the present value of expected cash flows or the fair value of the underlying
collateral if the loan repayment is expected to come from the sale or operation
of such collateral. Statement No 118 amends Statement No. 114 to permit a
creditor to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on impaired
loans eliminating the income recognition provisions of Statement No. 114. Prior
to 1995, the credit losses related to these loans were estimated based on
undiscounted cash flows or the fair value of the underlying collateral. The
adoption of the statements did not have a material effect on the Bank's
financial position or results of operations.

WORKINGMENS SAVINGS BANK, F.S.B. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Real Estate Owned
Real estate acquired by foreclosure or voluntary deed in lieu of foreclosure is
initially carried at the lower of fair value minus estimated disposal costs or
the balance of the loan on the property at the date of acquisition. Any
write-downs based on the asset's fair value at date of acquisition are charged
to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent costs directly related to the
development or improvement of real estate are capitalized. Other costs of
maintaining real estate ($0 and $7,542 (unaudited) for the nine months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996, and $8,014 and $13,771 in fiscal years 1996 and 1995,
respectively) are charged to income as incurred and are reported in "Other
Noninterest Expense."
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
Investment in stock of a Federal Home Loan Bank is required by law of every
federally insured savings and loan or savings bank. The investment is carried at
cost. No ready market exists for the stock, and it has no quoted market value.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Buildings, leasehold improvements, and furniture,
fixtures, and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Buildings, leasehold improvements, and furniture, fixtures, and
equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets (ranging from 5 to 35 years).
^
Income Taxes
The Bank and its subsidiary follow the practice of filing federal consolidated
income tax returns. Income taxes are allocated to the Bank as though separate
returns are being filed.
^ The Bank utilizes the liability method of computing income taxes in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes" (SFAS 109). Under the liability method, deferred tax liabilities and
assets are established for future tax return effects of temporary differences
between the ^ stated value of assets and liabilities ^ for financial reporting
purposes and their tax basis adjusted for tax rate changes. The focus is on
accruing the appropriate balance sheet deferred tax amount, with the statement
of income effect being the result of changes in balance sheet amounts from
period to period. Current income tax expense is provided based upon the actual
tax liability incurred for tax return purposes.
Pension Plan
The Bank has a pension plan covering substantially all employees. It is the
policy of the Bank to fund the maximum amount that can be deducted for federal
income tax purposes but in amounts not less than the minimum amounts required by
law.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information
about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statement of
financial condition. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair
values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.
Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including
the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the
derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to
independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate
settlement of the instruments. Statement No. 107 excludes certain financial
instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements.
Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts present do not represent the
underlying value of the Bank.
F-9
<PAGE>
WORKINGMENS SAVINGS BANK, F.S.B. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Bank in estimating its
fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the statements of
financial condition for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets' fair
values.
Investment and mortgage-backed securities: Fair values for investments and
mortgage-backed securities are based on quoted market prices, where available.
If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted
market prices of comparable instruments.
^
Loans: The fair values for loans are estimated using discounted cash flow
analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar
terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include
judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics.
Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis
or underlying collateral values, where applicable. The carrying amount of
accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock: No ready market exists for this stock and
it has no quoted market value. However, redemption of this stock has
historically been at par value. Accordingly, the carrying amount is deemed to be
a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition,
equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their
carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed ^ rate certificates of deposit are
estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates
currently offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly
maturities on time deposits. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable
approximates fair value.
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances: Fair values of FHLB advances are
estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Bank's current
incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance: The carrying amount of advances
from borrowers for taxes and insurance approximate fair value.
Off-Balance sheet items: Fair value of these items approximate their contractual
amounts.

In November of 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board allowed financial
institutions to perform a one-time reassessment of the appropriateness of the
classifications of all securities held at that time. Any transfers from the
held-to- maturity classification as a result of this one-time reassessment would
not question the Bank's intent and ability to hold other debt securities to
maturity in the future. Accordingly, on December 26, 1995, the Bank transferred
securities held-to- maturity with an amortized cost of $2,564,286 to securities

The Bank conducts its business through two offices located in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. As of March 31, 1997, the majority of the Bank's loan portfolio
was secured by properties located in this region. The Bank evaluates each
customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. Collateral held includes
mortgages on residential and income-producing properties. The Bank does not
believe it has significant concentration of credit risk to any one group of
borrowers given its underwriting and collateral requirements.
In accordance with SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan", no loans in non- homogenous groups were determined to be impaired for the
nine months ended or as of March 31, 1997. Commercial real estate, multi-family
residential and participation loans are included in the non-homogenous group.
First mortgage loans which are contractually past due ninety days or more total
approximately $700,000 at March 31, 1997. The amount the Bank will ultimately
realize from these loans could differ materially from their carrying value
because of unanticipated future developments affecting the underlying collateral
or the borrower's ability to repay the loans. If collection efforts are
unsuccessful, these loans will be subject to foreclosure proceedings in the
ordinary course of business. Management believes that the Bank has adequate
collateral on these loans and additional losses are not expected to occur in the
event of foreclosure.

NOTE I - PENSION PLAN
The Bank has a qualified, noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan
covering substantially all of its employees. The benefits are based on each
employee's years of service up to a maximum of 25 years, and the average of the
highest five consecutive annual salaries excluding the four years prior to
retirement. The benefits are reduced by a specified percentage for each year of
participation less than 25 years. An employee becomes fully vested upon
completion of ^ seven years of qualifying service.

The Bank's annual addition to its reserve for bad debts allowed under the
Internal Revenue Code may differ significantly from the bad debt expense used
for financial statement purposes. Such bad debt deductions for income tax
purposes are included in taxable income of later years only if the bad debt
reserves are used for purposes other than to absorb bad debt losses. Since the
Bank does not intend to use the reserve for purposes other than to absorb
losses, no deferred income taxes have been provided on the amount of bad debt
reserves for tax purposes that arose in tax years beginning before December 31,
1987, in accordance with SFAS No. 109. Therefore, retained earnings at March 31,
1997 and June 30, 1996 and 1995, includes approximately $143,000, representing
such bad debt deductions for which no deferred income taxes have been provided.
The use of the reserve method of accounting for thrift bad debt reserves has
been repealed for the tax year beginning after June 30, 1996. The law provides
that all thrifts must recapture into taxable income their post-1987 excess
reserves over a six-year period. Since the Bank has no such excess reserves, no
provision for income tax was needed to be recorded for the nine months ended
March 31, 1997.
The Bank has available Pennsylvania net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $380,000. This carryforward can be utilized in fiscal years 1998
through 2000. The deferred tax benefit associated with this loss carryforward is
approximately $44,000. This benefit has been fully reserved.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE M - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. These instruments
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess
of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is
represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments (See Note
L). The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount and type of collateral
obtained, upon extension of credit, varies and is based on management's credit
evaluation of the counterparty.
NOTE N - DEPOSIT INSURANCE ASSESSMENT
The Bank incurred an expense for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 for the
one-time special assessment levied by the omnibus appropriation bill to
recapitalize the SAIF insurance fund. The special assessment for deposit
insurance premiums was approximately $161,000, with an after tax impact of
approximately $108,000. Effective January 1, 1997, the Bank began paying reduced
premium assessments in accordance with the new SAIF assessment rates.
NOTE O - ACCOUNTING CHANGE - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
In May 1993 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities." The Association adopted the provisions of the new
standard for investments held as of or acquired after July 1, 1994. In
accordance with the Statement, prior period financial statements have not been
restated to reflect the change in accounting principle.
There was no cumulative effect as of July 1, 1994 of adopting Statement No. 115.
The opening balance of retained earnings was increased by $13,446 (net of $9,343
in income taxes) to reflect the net unrealized holding gain on securities
classified as available-for-sale previously carried at amortized cost or lower
of cost or fair value.

NOTE Q - REGULATORY MATTERS
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
its primary regulator, The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). Failure to meet
minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly
additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have
a direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Under capital
adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measure
of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as
calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the
following table) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to
risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average
assets (as defined). Management believes, as of March 31, 1997, that the Bank
meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of March 31, 1997, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the
Bank as "well capitalized". To be categorized as "well capitalized" the Bank
must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage
ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that
notification that management believes have changed the institution's category.

NOTE R - PLAN OF CONVERSION (UNAUDITED)
On May 19, 1997, the Bank's Board of Directors formally approved a plan ("Plan")
to convert from a federally-chartered mutual savings bank to a
federally-chartered stock savings bank subject to approval by the Bank's members
as of a still-to-be determined future voting record date. The Plan, which
includes formation of a holding company, is subject to approval by the Office of
Thrift Supervision (OTS) and includes the filing of a registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of March 31, 1997, the Bank had
incurred conversion costs of approximately $7,000. If the conversion is
ultimately successful, actual conversion costs will be accounted for as a
reduction in gross proceeds. If the conversion is unsuccessful, the conversion
costs will be expensed.
The Plan calls for the common stock of the Bank to be purchased by the holding
company and for the common stock of the holding company to be offered to various
parties in a subscription offering at a price based on an independent appraisal.
It is anticipated that any shares not purchased in the subscription offering
will be offered to the general public in a solicited offering.
The stockholders of the holding company will be asked to approve a proposed
stock option plan and a proposed restricted stock plan at a meeting of the
stockholders after the conversion. Shares issued to directors and employees
under these plans may be from authorized but unissued shares of common stock or
they may be purchased in the open market. In the event that options or shares
are issued under these plans, such issuances will be included in the earnings
per share calculation; thus, the interests of existing stockholders would be
diluted.
The Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend if the effect thereof would
cause its net worth to be reduced below either the amounts required for the
liquidation account discussed below or the regulatory capital requirements
imposed by federal regulations.
At the time of conversion, the Bank will establish a liquidation account, which
will be a memorandum account that does not appear on the balance sheet, in an
amount equal to its retained earnings as reflected in the latest consolidated
balance sheet used in the final conversion prospectus. The liquidation account
will be maintained for the benefit of eligible account holders who continue to
maintain their deposit accounts in the Bank after conversion. In the event of a
complete liquidation of the Bank (and only in such an event), eligible
depositors who continue to maintain accounts shall be entitled to receive a
distribution from the liquidation account before any liquidation may be made
with respect to common stock.

Board of Directors
Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB
807 Middle Street
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15212
Dear Directors:
We have completed and hereby provide, as of June 6, 1997, an
independent appraisal of the estimated pro forma market value of Workingmens
Savings Bank, FSB ("Workingmens" or the "Bank"), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in
connection with the conversion of Workingmens from the mutual to stock form of
organization ("Conversion"). This appraisal report is furnished pursuant to the
regulatory filing of the Bank's Application for Conversion ("Form AC") with the
Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS").
Ferguson & Company ("F&C") is a consulting firm that specializes in
providing financial, economic, and regulatory services to financial
institutions. The background and experience of F&C is presented in Exhibit I. We
believe that, except for the fees we will receive for preparing the appraisal,
we are independent. F&C personnel are prohibited from owning stock in conversion
clients for a period of at least one year after conversion.
In preparing our appraisal, we have reviewed Workingmen' Application
for Approval of Conversion, including the Proxy Statement as filed with the OTS.
We conducted an analysis of Workingmens that included discussions with Hinds,
Lind, Miller & Co., the Bank's independent auditors, and with Malizia, Spidi,
Sloane & Fisch, P.C., the Bank's conversion counsel. In addition, where
appropriate, we considered information based on other available published
sources that we believe is reliable; however, we cannot guarantee the accuracy
or completeness of such information.
We also reviewed the economy in Workingmens' primary market area and
compared the Bank's financial condition and operating results with that of
selected publicly traded thrift institutions. We reviewed conditions in the
securities markets in general and in the market for thrifts stocks in
particular.
Our appraisal is based on Workingmens' representation that the
information contained in the Form AC and additional evidence furnished to us by
the Bank and its independent auditors are truthful, accurate, and complete. We
did not independently verify the financial statements and other information
provided by Workingmens and its auditors, nor did we independently value the
Bank's assets or liabilities. The valuation considers Workingmens only as a
going concern and should not be considered an indication of its liquidation
value.
It is our opinion that, as of June 6, 1997, the estimated pro forma
market value of Workingmens was $2,500,000, or 250,000 shares at $10.00 per
share. The resultant valuation range was $2,125,000 at the minimum (212,500
shares at $10.00 per share) to $2,875,000 at the maximum (287,500 shares at
$10.00 per share), based on a range of 15 percent below and above the midpoint
valuation. The supermaximum was $3,306,250 (330,625 shares at $10.00 per share).

Board of Directors
June 6, 1997
Page 2
Our valuation is not intended, and must not be construed, as a
recommendation of any kind as to the advisability of purchasing shares of common
stock in the conversion. Moreover, because such valuation is necessarily based
upon estimates and projections of a number of matters, all of which are subject
to change from time to time, no assurance can be given that persons who purchase
shares of common stock in the conversion will thereafter be able to sell such
shares at prices related to the foregoing estimate of the Bank's pro forma
market value. F&C is not a seller of securities within the meaning of any
federal or state securities laws and any report prepared by F&C shall not be
used as an offer or solicitation with respect to the purchase or sale of any
securities.
Our opinion is based on circumstances as of the date hereof, including
current conditions in the United States securities markets. Events occurring
after the date hereof, including, but not limited to, changes affecting the
United States securities markets and subsequent results of operations of
Workingmens, could materially affect the assumptions used in preparing this
appraisal.
The valuation reported herein will be updated as provided in the OTS
conversion regulations and guidelines. Any updates will consider, among other
things, any developments or changes in Workingmens' financial performance and
condition, management policies, and current conditions in the equity markets for
thrift shares. Should any such new developments or changes be material, in our
opinion, to the valuation of the shares, appropriate adjustments will be made to
the estimated pro forma market value. The reasons for any such adjustments will
be explained in detail at the time.
Respectfully,
FERGUSON & COMPANY

INTRODUCTION
Workingmens Savings bank, FSB ("Workingmens" or "Bank") is a federally
chartered, federally insured mutual savings bank located in Pittsburgh
(Allegheny County), Pennsylvania. It was chartered in 1881 as Workingmens
Premium and Loan Bank of Allegheny County. In May 1997, it adopted a plan to
convert to a stock savings bank, via a standard mutual to stock conversion.
At March 31, 1997, Workingmens had total assets of $33.1 million, loans
of $14.1 million, mortgage-backed securities of $2.2 million, interest-bearing
deposits in other banks of $1.2 million, investment securities of $13.6 million,
deposits of $27.9 million, borrowings of $3.0 million, and net worth of $2.0
million, or 6.1% of assets.
The bank has two offices, which are located in Pittsburgh (Allegheny
County), Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is in the northeastern portion of the United
States. Pittsburgh is located in the southwestern portion of Pennsylvania.
Workingmens is a traditional thrift with significant emphasis on
passive investments. It invests primarily in (1) 1-4 family loans, (2) consumer
loans, (3) commercial and multi family real estate loans, (4) mortgage backed
securities, (5) investment securities, and (6) temporary cash investments. It is
funded principally by savings deposits and existing net worth. It has utilized
minor amounts of borrowings recently.
The Bank offers a full spectrum of real estate loan products to
accommodate its customer base and single family loans dominate the Bank's loan
portfolio. At March 31, 1997, loans on 1-4 family dwellings made up 32.0% of
total assets and 73.9% of the loan portfolio. Consumer loans were 10.5% of the
loan portfolio and multi family loans were 11.2% of the loan portfolio. Mortgage
backed securities made up 6.5% of total assets. Cash and investment securities
made up 41.6% of Workingmens' assets at March 31, 1997.
Workingmens had $776,000 in non-performing assets at March 31, 1997,
as compared to $727,000 at June 30, 1996, and $823,000 at June 30, 1995.
Savings deposits increased $2.1 million during the period from June 30,
1995, to March 31, 1997, a compound annual growth rate of 4.53%. Savings
increased $2.4 million (9.22%) from June 30, 1995, to June 30, 1996, and
decreased $297 thousand (1.05%) from June 30, 1996, to March 31, 1997.
Workingmens has not relied extensively on borrowings during recent years. It had
$3.0 million in borrowings at March 31, 1997, and none at June 30, 1996 and
1995.
The Bank's capital to assets ratio has declined during the period of
one year and nine months ending March 31, 1997. Equity capital, as a percentage
of assets, has decreased from 7.43% at June 30, 1995, to 6.10% at March 31,
1997. The compound annual asset growth rate was 9.41% during the period, while
the compound annual rate of decline for equity was 2.23%.
Workingmens' profitability, as measured by return on average assets
("ROAA"), has been at or below its peer group average of thrifts filing TFR's
with the OTS, consisting of OTS supervised thrifts with assets between $25
million and $50 million. For the years ending December 31, 1993, 1994, 1995, and
1996, Workingmens ranked in the 44th, 24th, 23rd, and 22nd percentile,
respectively, in ROAA, based on information derived from the TAFS thrift
database published by Sheshunoff Information Services Inc. (See Exhibit III,
page 2). In return on equity for the same periods, Workingmens ranked in the
66th, 37th, 33rd, and 22nd percentile, respectively.
I. FINANCIAL CHARACTERISTICS
PAST & PROJECTED ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
Fluctuations in thrift earnings in recent years have occurred within
the time frames as a result of changing temporary trends in interest rates and
other economic factors. However, the year-to-year results have been upward while
the general trends in the thrift industry have been improving as interest rates
declined. Interest rates began a general upward movement during late 1993,
followed by a decline in interest margins and profitability. Rates began a
general decline in mid 1995 and then leveled off on the short end and increased
on the long end. Workingmens' spread was 2.61% for the year ended June 30, 1995
and 2.61$ for the year ended June 30, 1996. It increased to 2.92%
<PAGE>
FERGUSON & COMPANY Section I.
- ------------------ ----------
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 principally because of increasing the
lives of investments combined with a decline in the cost of funds.
The thrift industry generally is better equipped to cope with changing
interest rates than it was in the past, and investors have recognized the
demonstrated ability of the thrift industry to maintain interest margins in
spite of rising interest rates. However, rate increases and the shortening of
the time elapsed between increases during 1994 placed pressure on portfolio
managers to shorten maturities, which negatively impacts the future earnings of
financial institutions. Workingmens has a much higher exposure to interest rate
risk than the thrift industry in general.
FINANCIAL CONDITION OF INSTITUTION
Balance Sheet Trends
As Table I.1 shows, Workingmens experienced healthy growth in assets
during the period of one year and nine months ending March 31, 1997. Assets
increased $4.85 million, or 17.1% during the period. Loans increased $1.3
million, or 10.4%. Mortgage-backed securities, interest-earning cash, and
investments securities combined increased $2.4 million, or 16.4% during the
period. Savings deposits increased by $2.1 million, or 8.1%. Equity decreased
$81 thousand, or 3.9%.
Asset/Liability Management
Managing interest rate risk is a major component of the strategy used
in operating a thrift. Most of a thrift's interest earning assets are long-term,
while most of the interest bearing liabilities have short to intermediate terms
to contractual maturity. To compensate, asset/liability management techniques
include (1) making long term loans with interest rates that adjust to market
periodically, (2) investing in assets with shorter terms to maturity, (3)
lengthening the terms to maturities of savings deposits, and (4) seeking to
employ any combination of the aforementioned techniques artificially through the
use of synthetic hedge instruments. Table I.3 provides rate shock information at
varying levels of interest rate change. The Bank has significant exposure to
interest rate increases, but its exposure will be reduced through the equity
raised in the conversion.
Workingmens' basic approach to interest rate risk management has been
to emphasize shorter term mortgage loans, and short and intermediate term liquid
investments. During 1997, in an effort to increase yields, the Bank lengthened
it investment portfolio, thereby significantly increasing its interest rate risk
exposure. Workingmens currently is not utilizing synthetic hedge instruments and
has not used borrowings extensively in recent years. Workingmens' business plan
calls for a continuation of these strategies.
Income and Expense Trends
Workingmens was profitable for the two fiscal years ended June 30,
1996, but incurred a loss for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. Fluctuations
in income over the period have resulted principally from (1) changes in
non-interest expense, principally the SAIF assessment of approximately $161,000
and (2) significant additions to the loan loss allowance, both during the nine
months ended March 31, 1997.
Net interest income increased in the year ended June 30, 1996, and the
nine months ended March 31, 1997, principally as a result of growth.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
As Table I.4 demonstrates, Workingmens meets all regulatory capital
requirements, and meets the regulatory definition of a "Well Capitalized"
institution. Moreover, the additional capital raised in the stock conversion
will add to the existing capital cushion.
Lending
Table I.5 provides an analysis of the Bank's loan portfolio by type of
loan and security. This analysis shows that, from June 30, 1995, through March
31, 1997, Workingmens' loan composition has been dominated by 1-4 family
dwelling loans. The portfolio has shifted slightly, however, from real estate
loans to consumer loans. Table I.6 provides information on loan maturities and
repricing opportunities at March 31, 1997. The schedule shows that, at
2
<PAGE>
FERGUSON & COMPANY Section I.
- ------------------ ----------
that date, approximately 83% of the portfolio was scheduled to mature in more
than five years and 63% was scheduled to mature in more than ten years.
Table I.7 provides information with respect to loan originations and
repayments. It indicates the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were slow growth
years and the June 30, 1997 year has started out slowly.
Table I.8 provides rates, yields, and average balances for each of the
two years ended June 30, 1996 and the nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.
Interest rates earned on interest-earning assets increased from 6.82% in 1995 to
7.25% in 1996, and 7.39% for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. Interest
rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased from 4.21% in 1995 to 4.66%
in 1996, and decreased to 4.47% for the nine months ended March 31, 1997.
Workingmens' spread decreased from 2.61% in 1995 to 2.59% in 1996, and increased
to 2.92% for the nine months ended March 31, 1997.
Table I.9 provides a rate volume analysis, measuring differences in
interest earning assets and interest costing liabilities and the interest rates
thereon during the years ended June 30, 1995 versus 1996, and the period of nine
months ended March 31, 1996 versus 1997. The table shows that most of the
increase in net interest income for the periods presented resulted from rate
changes, though changing volumes were significant for the 1996 versus 1997 nine
month comparison.
Non-performing Assets
As shown in Table I.10, the Bank had $770,000 in loans that were over
90 days delinquent at March 31, 1997. The Bank had ceased to accrue interest on
these loans at March 31, 1997, and reversed approximately $71,000 of previously
accrued interest. As shown in Table I.11, Workingmens had $727 thousand in
nonperforming assets at June 30, 1996, and $823 thousand at June 30, 1995.
Classified Assets
Workingmens had $1.44 million in classified assets at March 31, 1997.
The assets were classified as follows: Doubtful--$22,000; substandard--$776,000;
and special mention--$637.000. The Bank had a loan loss allowance of $201,000,
or 14.0% of classified assets at March 31, 1997.
Loan Loss Allowance
Table I.12 provides an analysis of Workingmens' loan loss allowance.
Table I.13 shows the allocation of the loan loss allowance among the various
loan categories as of June 30, 1995 and 1996, and March 31, 1997.
Mortgage-Backed Securities and Investments
Table I.14 provides a breakdown of investments as of June 30, 1995 and
1996, and March 31, 1997. Table I.15 provides maturity information for
investments as of June 30, 1995 and 1996, and March 31, 1997.
Savings Deposits
At March 31, 1997, Workingmens' deposit portfolio was composed as
follows: Non-interest bearing DDA's--$1.493 million or 5.36%; passbook
accounts--$10.130 million or 36.36%; and certificate accounts--$16.237 million
or 58.28% (see Table I.16). Table I.17 provides a break down of time deposits by
rate ranges as of June 30, 1995 and 1996, and March 31, 1997. Table I.18
provides savings flow information for the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1996,
and the period of nine months ended March 31, 1997. It shows that the bank
experienced healthy deposit growth rates for the years ended June 30, 1995 and
1996, but experienced a decline in deposits for the period of nine months ended
March 31, 1997. Table I.19 provides maturity information by rate ranges for time
deposits as of March 31, 1997. It shows that 66.33% of all time deposits mature
within one year and 83.6% mature within two years.
Workingmens is not overly dependent on jumbo certificates of deposit.
March 31, 1997, the Bank had $1.600 million in certificates that were issued for
$100 thousand or more, or 5.74% of its total deposits (see Table I.20).

- ------------------ ----------
Borrowings
Workingmens has had only minor borrowings in recent years. Table I.21
provides information on borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank as of March
31, 1997.
Subsidiaries
Workingmens has one inactive subsidiary.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, Workingmens becomes involved in legal proceedings
principally related to the enforcement of its security interest in real estate
loans. In the opinion of Management of the Bank, no legal proceedings are in
process or pending that would have a material effect on Workingmens' financial
position, results of operations, or liquidity.
EARNINGS CAPACITY OF THE INSTITUTION
As in any interest sensitive industry, the future earnings capacity of
Workingmens will be affected by the interest rate environment. Historically, the
thrift industry has performed at less profitable levels in periods of rising
interest rates. This performance is due principally to the general composition
of the assets and the limited repricing opportunities afforded even the
adjustable rate loans. The converse earnings situation (falling rates) does not
afford the same degree of profitability potential for thrifts due to the
tendency of borrowers to refinance both high rate fixed rate loans and
adjustable loans as rates decline.
Workingmens is no exception to the aforementioned phenomenon. With its
current asset and liability structure, however, its exposure to rising interest
rates is significant.
The addition of capital through the conversion will allow Workingmens
to grow. As growth is attained, the leverage of that new capital should, from a
ratio of expenses to total assets standpoint, reduce the operating expense
ratio. However, growth and additional leverage will likely be moderate and well
controlled to maintain the current risk levels inherent in the Bank's asset
base.
Asset-Size-Efficiency of Asset Utilization
At its current size and in its current asset configuration, Workingmens
is a moderately efficient operation. With total assets of approximately $33.1
million, Workingmens has 11 full time equivalent employees. Workingmens is
inefficient with respect to utilization of its premises. The Bank built a new
branch office in late 1995, and it must grow to absorb fully the occupancy costs
associated with the new facility.
Intangible Values
Workingmens' greatest intangible value lies in its loyal deposit base.
Workingmens has a 116 year history of sound operations, controlled growth, and
consistent earnings. At June 30, 1996, the Bank had 2.39% of the deposit market
in its area (up from 1.98% at June 30, 1994), and it has the ability to increase
market share. Workingmens has enjoyed deposit growth at the expense of local
competing commercial banks, principally as a result of superior service.
Workingmens has no significant intangible values that could be
attributed to unrecognized asset gains on investments and real estate.
Effect of Government Regulations
Workingmens' business plan calls for little change in its strategies.
Government regulations will have the greatest impact in the area of cost of
compliance and reporting. The conversion will create an additional layer of
regulations and reporting and thereby increase the cost to the Bank.

Office Facilities
Workingmens' main office is a well maintained facility that was built
by the Bank in 1975. It has no drive-up or ATM services. Its branch building was
built in 1995 and has all of the modern banking conveniences, including ATM
services and safe deposit boxes. Table I.22 provides information on Workingmens'
offices. The facilities are adequate for the convenience and needs of the Bank's
customer base.

Workingmens Savings Bank ("WSB" or "Bank") conducts its operations
through two offices located in Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania is in the northeastern region of the United States. Allegheny
County is in the southwestern section of Pennsylvania.
WSB has determined that its principal trade area is the two zip codes
in which its offices are located--15212 and 15236.. Table II.1 presents
historical and projected trends for the United States, Pennsylvania, Allegheny
County, and zip codes 15212 and 15236, which include the Bank's home office and
branch, respectively. The information addresses population, income, employment,
and housing trends.
As indicated in Table II.1, population growth rates for Allegheny
County, Pittsburgh MSA, zip code 15212, and zip code 15236 are well below both
the United States rate and the rate for the State of Pennsylvania, which is
below that of the United States. Household income growth for Allegheny County,
Pittsburgh MSA, zip code 15212, and zip code 15236 is projected to be below that
of the State of Pennsylvania and the United States for the period 1996 to 2001.
In the period from 1990 until 1996, the population of the State of
Pennsylvania grew 1.80%. During the same period, the Allegheny County population
decreased 2.61% and the United States population increased 6.67%. The population
of zip code 15212 decreased 3.67% and the population of zip code 15236 decreased
2.21% from 1990 to 1996. Projections of population growth from 1996 through 2001
indicate that the State of Pennsylvania will increase 1.82%, while Allegheny
County is projected to decrease by 2.09% and the United States population is
projected to increase by 5.09%. The population of zip code 15212 is projected to
decrease 2.30% and the population of zip code 15236 is projected to decrease
2.05% from 1996 to 2001.
Household income is projected to decline by 11.93% for Allegheny County
from 1996 to 2001. For the same period, household income is projected to decline
by 6.63% for the State of Pennsylvania and decline by 3.88% for the United
States. Per capita and household income levels for the State of Pennsylvania are
slightly higher than those of the United States, but per capita and household
income levels for Allegheny County, Pittsburgh MSA, and zip code 15212 are well
below both the State of Pennsylvania and the United States, while zip code 15236
is above both the United States and Pennsylvania.
The 2001 estimate shows that, for Allegheny County, households with
incomes less than $15,000 are expected to be 23%; those with incomes between
$15,000 and $25,000 are estimated at 17%; those with incomes between $25,000 and
$50,000 are estimated at 34%; those with incomes between $50,000 and $100,000
are estimated at 21%; and households with incomes in excess of $100,000 are
projected to be 6%. The 2001 estimates for Pennsylvania are 19%, 14%, 35%, 26%,
and 6%, respectively. There is a marked contrast between zip codes 15212 and
15236. The 2001 estimate for zip code 15212 is 37%, 19%, 30%, 13%, and 2%,
respectively, while the 2001 projection for zip code 15236 is 14%, 14%, 38%,
29%, and 5%, respectively.
The number of households in Allegheny County is projected to decrease
by 1.97% from 1996 to 2001, below the projection for the State of Pennsylvania
which calls for a decrease of .98% and well below the projected growth rate for
the United States at 5.14%.
With projections of a decline in population and number of households,
combined with projections of a flat to declining household income, the market
for housing units will be limited. Zip code 15212 has approximately 17,000
housing units, of which 50.72% are owner occupied, and a vacancy rate of 11.78%.
Zip code 15236 has approximately 14,400 housing units, of which 74.98% are owner
occupied, and a vacancy rate of 2.70%.
The principal sources of employment in Allegheny County are
services--39.8%; trade--20.4%; and manufacturing--11.1%.

- ------------------ -----------
Analysis of the data presented above presents a picture of limited economic
opportunity, suggesting that WSB's growth opportunities within its current
market area will be slow.
Based on information publicly available on deposits as of June 30, 1996
(see Table II.3), zip codes 15212 and 15236 had $1.177 billion in deposits and
WSB had 2.39% of the deposit market, up from 1.98% of the market at June 30,
1994. WSB's recent deposit growth rate has been good, though the overall market
has declined. WSB's competition consists of 17 commercial bank offices, 6
savings bank offices, 7 credit union offices, and 10 thrift offices. WSB's
growth in a declining market has occurred as a result of WSB providing superior
service and the construction of a new office in its more affluent branch
location Table II.3 shows that from June 30, 1994 to 1996, WSB's deposits
increased by $4.58 million (19.4%) while the overall market lost $16.5 million
in deposits (1.4%). WSB's business plan projects that its deposits will continue
to grow at approximately the same pace. The Plan projects that deposits will
increase by $4.08 million from March 31, 1997, to March 31, 2000, after an
estimated withdrawal of approximately $750,000 of deposits for stock purchases.
Building permit information was not available by zip code. However, low
projected population growth rates in WSB's zip codes portend limited building.
WSB has significant competition from other financial institutions for the
residential loan opportunities.
Growth opportunities for WSB can be assessed by reviewing economic factors
in its market area. The salient factors include growth trends, economic trends,
and competition from other financial institutions. We have reviewed these
factors to assess the potential for the market area. In assessing the growth
potential of WSB, we must also assess the willingness and flexibility of
management to respond to the competitive factors that exist in the market area.
Our analysis of the economic potential and the potential of management affects
the valuation of the Bank. Management has demonstrated its flexibility through
its decision to build a new office (completed in 1995) in its more affluent
location. All of WSB's deposit growth in recent years has come from its branch
in zip code 15236. The Bank's home office is located on the north side of the
Allegheny River, near Three Rivers Stadium. The office is in a deteriorating
section. There are houses in the neighborhood with wood over the windows. The
Bank doors are locked during business hours, requiring the Bank to unlock the
door (by buzzer) to allow customers to enter. The home office had less in
deposits at June 30, 1996 ($10.51 million) than it had at June 30, 1992 ($11.45
million). The branch office's deposits increased from $11.77 million at June 30,
1992, to $17.65 million at June 30, 1996.

III. COMPARISON WITH PUBLICLY TRADED THRIFTS
COMPARATIVE DISCUSSION
This section presents an analysis of Workingmens Savings Bank, FSB
("WSB" or "Bank") relative to a group of twelve publicly traded thrift
institutions ("comparative group"). Such analysis is necessary to determine the
adjustments that must be made to the pro forma market value of WSB's stock.
Table III.1 presents a listing of the comparative group with general information
about the group. Table III.2 presents key financial indicators relative to
profitability, balance sheet composition and strength, and risk factors. Table
III.3 presents a pro forma comparison of WSB to the comparative group. Exhibits
III and IV contain selected financial information on WSB and the comparative
group. This information is derived from quarterly TFR's filed with the OTS and
call reports filed with the FDIC. The selection criteria and comparison with the
comparative group are discussed below.
Selection Criteria
Ideally, the comparative group would consist of thrifts in the same
geographic region with identical local economies, asset size, capital level,
earnings performance, asset quality, etc. However, there are few comparably
sized institutions with stock that is liquid enough to provide timely,
meaningful market values. Therefore, we have selected a group of comparatives
that are either listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), the American
Stock Exchange ("AMEX"), or Nasdaq. We excluded companies that are apparent
takeover targets and companies with unusual characteristics that tend to distort
both mean and median calculations. For example, we have excluded all companies
with losses during the trailing twelve months. We have also excluded mutual
holding companies (see Exhibit VI).
Because of the limited number of similar size thrifts with sufficient
trading volume, we looked for members of the comparative group among thrifts
with assets up to $75 million. The Mid-Atlantic Region, which includes
Pennsylvania, had 2 thrifts that met the size requirements. We found 24 thrifts
that met the asset size requirements in the entire country (we consider 10 to be
the minimum number), and we retained 12 and eliminated 12 for the following
reasons: (a) One was BIF insured; (b) Two had not been stock owned long enough
to file a financial statement as a stock owned company; (c) Two had agreed to be
acquired; and (d) One had loans serviced in excess of 25% of assets. After
eliminating the thrifts described above, there were 19 left. We then eliminated
the 7 with the highest loans-to-assets ratios, since Workingmens has a low
loans-to-assets ratio.
The principal source of data was SNL Securities, Charlottesville,
Virginia. There are approximately 420 publicly traded thrifts listed on NYSE,
AMEX, or Nasdaq. In developing statistics for the entire country, we eliminated
certain institutions that skewed the results, in order to make the data more
meaningful:
- We eliminated companies with losses,
- We eliminated indicated acquisition targets,
- We eliminated companies with price/earnings ratios in excess of
25, and
- We eliminated companies that had not reported as a stock
institution for one complete year.
The resulting group of 263 publicly traded thrifts is included in Exhibit V.
The selected group of comparatives has sufficient trading volume to
provide meaningful price data. Eight of the comparative group members are
located in the Midwest and the others are located in the Southeast (1), Western
(1), and Mid-Atlantic (2) Regions. With total assets of approximately $33.1
million, Workingmens is well below the group selected, which has average assets
of $53.2 million and median assets
1
<PAGE>
FERGUSON & COMPANY Section III.
- ------------------ -----------
of $50.0 million. Workingmens' assets after conversion will be continue to be
smaller than the comparative group. Pro forma assets at the midpoint are $35.0
million.
Profitability
Using the comparison of profitability components as a percentage of
average assets, Workingmens was below the comparative group in net income, .12%
to .74%; net interest income, 2.81% to 3.83%; loss provisions, .47% to .07%;
operating expense, 2.54% to 2.41%; efficiency ratio, 82.83% to 61.49%; and core
income, .36% to 1.02%. Workingmens was above the comparative group in other
operating income, .25% to .20%. Workingmens' operating expense minus other
income was 2.29% versus 2.21% for the comparative group. After conversion,
deployment of the proceeds will provide additional income, and Workingmens will
compare more favorably with the comparative group in terms of return on average
assets, with a return of .54% at the midpoint of the appraisal range. Pro forma
return on average equity is 4.13% at the midpoint, versus a mean of 4.06% and
median of 3.91% for the comparative group.
As compared with the comparative group, Workingmens has a slightly
higher level of noninterest income. Workingmens is inferior to the comparative
group in all other areas of operations shown on Table III.2. Workingmens has
several impediments to earnings relative to the comparative group. 1)
Workingmens has a much lower ratio of earning assets to costing liabilities
(101.81% versus 135.19%); 2) Workingmens has a lower yield on earning assets
because of a much lower ratio of loans to assets (42.64% versus 63.04%); and 3)
Workingmens has a much higher ratio of non-performing assets to assets (2.34%
versus .39%). The proceeds from the stock sale will improve most of Workingmens'
operating ratios. However, Workingmens will continue to lag the comparative
group in most aspects of operations. To make significant improvements,
Workingmens must increase its loans to assets ratio and decrease its
non-performing assets ratio.
Workingmens' ratio of earning assets to costing liabilities was 106.65%
at December 31, 1994 (see Exhibit III, page 1). Construction of a new branch
facility (in 1995) with combined real estate and equipment cost of $840,000
reduced earning assets and increased occupancy costs significantly.
Balance Sheet Characteristics
The general asset composition of Workingmens is vastly different from
that of the comparative group. Workingmens has a higher level of passive
investments with 51.16% of its assets invested in cash, investments, and
mortgage-backed securities, versus 34.79% for the comparative group. Workingmens
has a lower percentage of its assets in loans, at 42.64% versus 63.04% for the
comparative group. Workingmens' percentage of earning assets to interest costing
liabilities is much lower than that of the group. Workingmens' has 101.81% and
the comparative group averages 135.19%. After conversion, Workingmens' ratio
will continue to be much lower than that of the group of comparatives.
The liability side differs mainly in that Workingmens has a higher
percentage of borrowings, a higher percentage of deposits, and a substantially
lower percentage of equity. Workingmens has borrowings equal to 9.06% of assets
versus 5.20% for the comparative group and Workingmens has deposits equal to
84.10% of assets versus 69.27% for the comparative group. Workingmens' equity is
6.10% of assets versus 24.39% for the comparative group. Workingmens' equity
ratio after conversion will continue to be much lower than that of the
comparative group. Workingmens' pro forma equity ratio at the midpoint is 11.2%.
Risk Factors
Workingmens has a high level and the comparative group has a low level
of non-performing assets. Workingmens' loan loss allowance is 1.42% of net
loans, which compares favorably with the comparative group, which is .70%.
Workingmens does not prepare a gap analysis. However, all of its loans are fixed
rate. Based on its rate shock analysis (see Rate Shock analysis in Section I),
its net portfolio value ("NPV") would decline 43% at a 200 basis point increase
in rates and its NPV would decline 84% at a 400 basis point
2
<PAGE>
FERGUSON & COMPANY Section III.
- ------------------ -----------
increase in rates. The comparative group reports a positive one year gap of
17.53%. However, the comparative group average is based on information provided
by only two of the twelve members of the group.
Summary of Financial Comparison
Based on the above discussion of operational, balance sheet, and risk
characteristics of Workingmens compared with the group, we believe that
Workingmens' performance is below that of the comparative group. Although the
conversion proceeds will improve several of Workingmens' financial aspects, the
Bank will continue to lag its comparative group in most financial areas.
Workingmens' earnings are hindered by its new branch building, non-performing
loans, and low ratio of loans to total assets. Future asset growth is needed to
reduce the drag on earnings created by the building. Return to earning status is
needed on the non-performing loans and an increase in the loans to assets ratio
is need to improve asset yields. And Workingmens has a high level of interest
rate risk.
FUTURE PLANS
Workingmens' future plans are to be a well capitalized but leveraged,
profitable institution with good asset quality and a commitment to serving the
needs of its trade area. The business plan projects that problem assets will
decline significantly. Management recognizes that it will take time to invest
the proceeds of its capital infusion in a manner consistent with its historic
performance and current policy. During that period of time, Management is
willing to accept a lower return on equity.
In recent years, Workingmens has experienced good growth. The Bank's
business plan projects that it will experience growth in loans, savings
deposits, and liquidity. The rate of growth is projected to range between 5% and
6% per year. The additional capital raised by the sale of Common Stock will
initially be used to purchase short term investment securities.
Workingmens has no current plans to open or acquire branches. However,
the additional capital and the formation of a holding company would make
acquisition of branches a viable option.
Increasing market penetration by increasing the number of services and
products available is the most likely method to be employed to achieve growth on
a long-term basis.

- ------------------ -----------
IV. CORRELATION OF MARKET VALUE
MARKETABILITY & LIQUIDITY OF STOCK TO BE ISSUED
Certain factors must be considered to determine whether adjustments are
required in correlating Workingmens' market value to the comparative group.
Those factors include financial aspects, market area, management, dividends,
liquidity, thrift equity market conditions, and subscription interest.
This section addresses the aforementioned factors and the estimated pro
forma market value of the to-be-issued common shares and compares the resulting
market value of the Bank to the members of its comparative group and the
selected group of publicly held thrifts.
Financial Aspects
Section III includes a discussion regarding a comparison of
Workingmens' earnings, balance sheet characteristics, and risk factors with its
comparative group. Table III.2 presents a comparison of certain key indicators,
and Table III.3 presents certain key indicators on a pro forma basis after
conversion.
As shown in Table III.2, from an earnings viewpoint, Workingmens is
below its comparative group in net income and core income as a percentage of
average assets. Workingmens' core income is based on appraisal earnings which
factors out unusual or nonrecurring items and the comparative group's core
income is computed on the same basis. Workingmens' net interest income as a
percent of assets is 2.81% versus 3.83% for the comparatives. The difference is
attributable to the asset mix (i.e., Workingmens has less in loans and more in
investments) and to the difference in the earning assets to costing liabilities
ratio (101.81% for Workingmens versus 135.19% for the comparative group).
Workingmens' loan loss provisions are well above its comparative group,
with loss provisions of .47% of assets versus .07% of assets for the comparative
group. This results from Workingmens having higher levels of problem loans,
which are concentrated in one borrower. Workingmens' other operating income is
.25% of average assets, versus .20% for the comparative group.
Workingmens' operating expense ratio, at 2.54% of average assets, is
above that of the comparative group, which is 2.41%. Workingmens' operating
expense minus noninterest income is 2.29% versus 2.21% for the comparative
group.
After Workingmens completes its stock conversion, its core income as a
percentage of average assets will increase. Table III.3 projects that
Workingmens' return on assets will be .49% at the midpoint, versus a mean of
1.02% and median of .99% for the comparative group.
Workingmens' pro forma equity to assets ratio at the midpoint is 11.2%,
versus a mean of 24.4% and median of 22.5% for the comparative group, making it
much easier for Workingmens to achieve a reasonable return on equity.
Workingmens' pro forma return on equity is 4.13% at the midpoint versus a mean
of 4.06% and median of 3.91% for the comparative group. Return on equity for the
comparative group is low because of the inordinately high capital level of the
group.
Workingmens' recorded earnings have been adjusted for appraisal
purposes. The Bank recorded higher than normal loan loss provisions, losses on
asset sales and real estate owned expenses, and the SAIF resolution assessment.

Workingmens' asset composition is much more passive than the
comparative group. Workingmens has a lower ratio of loans to assets, higher
ratio of investments and mortgage-backed securities to assets, higher ratio of
deposits to assets, higher ratio of borrowings to assets, and lower ratio of
equity to assets. From the risk factor viewpoint, Workingmens is inferior to the
comparative group. Workingmens has a much higher level of non performing assets.
Workingmens' loan loss allowance is 1.42% of net loans, comparing favorably with
the comparative group, which is 0.70%. Its ratio of interest earning assets to
interest bearing liabilities (101.81%) is well below the comparative group
(135.19%). Workingmens' ratio will continue to be well below the comparative
group after conversion. From an interest rate risk factor, Workingmens probably
has more exposure than the comparative group.
We believe that a downward adjustment is necessary relative to
financial aspects of Workingmens.
Market Area
Section II describes Workingmens' market area.
We believe that no adjustment is required for Workingmens' market area.
Management
The President, who functions as CEO, has been with Workingmens 22
years, serving as CEO since joining the Bank. He had 19 years of commercial
banking experience prior to joining Workingmens. The Vice President-CFO has been
with the Bank for 10 years. He also had commercial banking experience prior to
joining Workingmens.
We believe that no adjustment is required for Workingmens' management.
Dividends
Table III.3 provides dividend information relative to the comparative
group and the thrift industry as a whole. The comparative group is paying a mean
yield on price of 1.71% and a median of 1.72%, while all public thrifts are
paying a mean of 2.02% and median of 2.00%. Workingmens intends to pay a
dividend but has not determined what the initial annual rate will be.
We believe that no adjustment is required relative to Workingmens'
intention to pay dividends.

Liquidity
The Holding Company has never issued capital stock to the public, and
as a result, no existing market for the Common Stock exists. Although the
Holding Company expects its shares to be quoted through the OTC Electronic
Bulletin Board, there can be no assurance that a liquid trading market will
develop.
A public market having the desirable characteristics of depth,
liquidity, and orderliness depends upon the presence, in the market place, of
both willing buyers and sellers of the Common Stock. These characteristics are
not within the control of the Bank or the market.
The peer group includes companies with sufficient trading volume to
develop meaningful pricing characteristics for the stock. The market value of
the comparative group ranges from $6.05 million to $30.13 million, with a mean
value of $12.91 million. The midpoint of Workingmens' valuation range is $2.5
million at $10 a share, or 250,000 shares.
We believe a slight downward adjustment is required relative to the
liquidity of Workingmens' stock.
Thrift Equity Market Conditions
The SNL Thrift Index is summarized in Figure IV.1. As the table
demonstrates, the Thrift Index has performed well since the end of 1990. The
Index has grown as follows: Year ended December 31, 1991--increased 49.0% from
96.6 to 143.9; Year ended December 31, 1992--increased 39.7% to 201.1; Year
ended December 31, 1993--increased 25.6% to 252.5; Year ended December 31,
1994--decreased 3.1% to 244.7; Year ended December 31, 1995--increased 53.9% to
376.5; Year ended December 31, 1996--increased 28.4% to 483.6; and Period ended
June 6, 1997--increased 22.2% to 590.8. It is market value weighted with a base
value of 100 as of March 31, 1984.
As shown in Figure IV.1, which is a graph of the SNL Thrift Index
covering from December 31, 1990 through June 6, 1997, the market, as depicted by
the index, has experienced fluctuations recently. It dipped in the latter part
of 1994, but recovered during the first quarter of 1995. During 1995, the Index
continued a more robust increase and moved from 244.7 at year end 1994 to 376.5
by December 31, 1995, an increase of 53.9%. However, the Index was flat for the
first six months of 1996, experiencing a decline during the June 30, 1996
quarter, but it has picked up since June 30, 1996.
PENNSYLVANIA ACQUISITIONS
Table IV.2 provides information relative to acquisitions of financial
institutions in Pennsylvania between January 1, 1996 and May 30, 1997. There
were 3 thrift acquisitions and 8 bank acquisitions announced during that time
frame. Currently, there are 25 publicly held thrifts in the State of
Pennsylvania. There are 88 publicly held thrifts in the Mid-Atlantic region of
the country. Bank acquisitions in Pennsylvania since January 1, 1996, have
averaged 212.3% of tangible book value and 21.3 times earnings. The median price
has been 200.7% of tangible book value and 20.7 times earnings. Thrifts
generally sell at lower price/book multiples than do banks. Thrifts in
Pennsylvania during that period have averaged 120.4% of tangible book value and
23.2 times earnings.
EFFECT OF INTEREST RATES ON THRIFT STOCK
The current interest rate environment and the anticipated rate
environment will affect the pricing of thrift stocks and all other interest
sensitive stocks. As the economy continues to expand, the fear of inflation can
return. The Federal Reserve, in its resolve to curb inflation, has increased
rates in the past, but has more recently relented to vagaries of the economy and
passed several opportunities to increase rates, until March 25, 1997, when the
Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") increased the discount rate 25 basis
points.

<PAGE>
FERGUSON & COMPANY Section IV.
- ------------------ -----------
In some minds, this was an attempt to head off inflation. According to the FOMC,
"This action was taken in light of persisting strength in demand, which is
progressively increasing the risk of inflationary imbalances developing in the
economy that would eventually undermine the long expansion."1 This increase was
clearly telegraphed by Chairman Greenspan, who voiced concern about the levels
of the equity markets. Following the March 25 increase, unemployment rates were
announced at the 5.2% level, down from the 5.5% level at the beginning of 1996
and significantly down from the 6.7% level at the beginning of 1994.2 The good
news about unemployment gave way to speculation that the March 25 increase was
just the first of at least two or three increases, and the speculations was
given some credence at that time by rises in the Employment Cost Index,
increases in Unit Labor Cost and an upward trend in the price of crude oil. By
April 1, 1997, following the rate increase, the equities markets had lost all of
the gains registered since the first of the year. By the end of April 1997, the
market had begun a rebound and has trended upward since then. There have been
specific days of price adjustment, but the overall trend it up. During this last
market rally, the market has adjusted for rate increases that have not
materialized, and has overcome good economic news that caused inflation to be
discussed once again. However, the current economic news has produced no
indications that inflation is a problem, and the Federal Reserve has been
curiously silent on the subject of rates. Perhaps the lack of bad economic news,
a growing economy, no inflation indicated, and Fed rhetoric articulates the
possibility that interest rates will not be increased at the next opportunity,
allowing the markets to continue their upward trend toward new record highs
The thrift equities market is following the market in general. However,
the thrift equities market can continue to be influenced by the speculation that
there will eventually be a buyout, and the fact that thrift IPO stock can be
purchased at significant discounts from book value. These two facts could keep
the thrift equities market from falling as much as the other general markets.
However, if the merger and acquisition levels drop, if there were another sharp
and sustained rise in the interest rates, or if other equity markets have
protracted adjustment, the market in thrift equities would also adjust.
What is likely to happen in the short to intermediate term is that
rates will float around current levels and trend upward. The yield curve will
continue to be of normal configuration. Most economists feel that a rise of
three quarters of one percent on the short side and less on the long side could
severely dampen the economy. However, the march increase in rates has not
produced any slowing of the economy or general equity market performance.
Currently, we are in the second longest post-war expansion on record. The last
decision to raise rates had an immediate and significant impact upon the stock
market, but within a short period of time, the market regained its losses and
then continued to set new records. The Fed, by taking no action on the rising
value of the dollar against other currencies, is probably slowing the economy
furtively, without raising rates. The Federal Reserve Bank is allowing the U. S.
Dollar to remain strong against the Yen and European currencies. Although not as
effective as a rate increase, a continuing strong dollar will have a natural
economic "braking effect" on the U.S. economy. Goods and services produced by
countries with weaker currencies would become cheaper on the global economy and
more competitive to U.S. produced goods. The net result would be a market
induced slowing of the economy--until the U.S. Dollar loses its strength and
values of currencies are adjusted.
Thrift net interest margins will narrow if the cost of funds starts to
rise more quickly than currently anticipated. Since 1993, thrifts have enjoyed
profitability without having to stray from their traditional lending roles and
without developing new loan products. Access to mortgage -backed securities and
derivatives has made it possible for many to be profitable without making loans
in significant volumes. With reduced deposit insurance premiums, perhaps they
will be more willing to compete for customer deposits. However, even with
portfolios replete with adjustable rate loans and adjustable mortgage-backed
securities,

- ------------------ -----------
there is a fear that a quickly rising rate environment can cause the cost of
funds to rise faster than the adjustable assets can accommodate, and
accordingly, spreads would narrow. If rates rise in a slow and orderly manner,
then the negative impact on spreads will be less and the adjustable rate assets
will have time to rise and protect rate spreads.
As clearly illustrated, the SNL Thrift Index has performed well over
the last six years. It moved in tandem with all interest sensitive stocks and
reflected the weakness in the market as investors began to consider the
importance of increases in rates and their impact on the net interest margins of
thrifts. The clear implication is that rising interest rates will have a
negative impact on earnings.
Figure IV.2 graphically displays the rate environment since October 25,
1996. At that time, the yield curve was relatively flat, with only a 159 basis
point ("BP") difference between the federal funds rate and the 30 year treasury
at October 25, 1996. Since that time, the yield curve has changed very little
with a 135 BP spread between the federal funds rate and the 30 year treasury
rate at June 6, 1997.
At October 25, 1996, the spread between the 1 year T-Bill and the 5
year T-Note was 73 BP, and the spread between the 5 year T-Note and the 30 year
bond was 56 BP. On June 6, 1997, the spreads were 74 and 39 BP, respectively.
From October 1996 to June 1997, the Fed Funds rate increased 32 BP and
the Prime Rate increased 25 BP.
Increased cost of funds will serve to narrow the net interest margins
of thrifts. A thrift's ability to maintain net interest margins through business
cycles is important to investors, unless thrifts can offset the decline in net
interest income by other sources of revenue or reductions in noninterest
expense. The former is difficult and the latter is unlikely.
Workingmens, with its interest rate risk position combined with its
equity position (even on a pro forma basis), is more vulnerable to rising rates
than most.
During 1993, conversion stocks often experienced first day 30% or more
increases in value. As Table IV.3 shows, recent price appreciation has
approached the 1993 levels. Table IV.3 provides information on 15 conversions
completed since November 30, 1996. The average change in price since conversion
is a gain of 42.4% and the median change is a gain of 37.8%. Within that group,
all have increased in value with a range of a low of 28.8% to a high of 74.7%.
The average increase in value at one day, one week, and one month after
conversion has been 31.9%, 34.8%, and 40.2%, respectively. The median increase
in value at one day, one week, and one month after conversion has been 30.0%,
33.5%, and 38.1%, respectively.
Because of the lack of complete earnings information on recent
conversions, a meaningful comparison of the price earnings ratios is difficult
to make. However, there is sufficient information to review the price to book
ratio. The average price-to-book ratio, as of June 6, 1997, is 98.5% and the
median is 97.4%. That compares to the offering price to pro forma book, where
the average was 71.6% and the median was 71.8%.
Table IV.4 provides information on the 8 pink sheet conversions
completed since May 31, 1996. Within that group, all have increased in value
with a range of a low of 21.3% to a high of 65.0%. The average increase in value
at one day, one week, and one month after conversion has been 15.6%, 16.7%, and
17.6%, respectively. The median increase in value at one day, one week, and one
month after conversion has been 15.0%, 16.3%, and 13.8%, respectively.
We believe a downward adjustment is required for the new issue
discount.

Valuation Approach
Typically, investors rely on the price/earnings ratio as the most
appropriate indicator of value. We consider price/earnings to be one of the
important pricing methods in valuing a thrift stock. Price/book is a well
recognized yardstick for measuring the value of financial institution stocks in
general. Another method of viewing thrift values is price/assets, which is more
meaningful in situations where the subject is thinly capitalized. Given the
healthy condition of the thrift industry today, more emphasis is placed on
price/earnings and price/book. Generally, price/earnings and price/book should
be considered in tandem.
Table III.3 presents Workingmens' pro forma ratios and compares them to
the ratios of its comparative group and the publicly held thrift industry as a
whole. Workingmens' net loss for the twelve months ended March 31, 1997, were
approximately $71,000, with adjustments of $185,000 required to determine
appraisal earnings of $114,000.
The comparative group traded at an average of 25.9 times earnings at
June 6, 1997, and at 99.9% of book value. The comparative group traded at a
median of 22.5 times earnings and a median of 97.7% of book value. At the
midpoint of the valuation range, Workingmens is priced at 15.2 times earnings
and 63.5% of book value. At the maximum end of the range, Workingmens is priced
at 16.6 times earnings and 67.3% of book value. At the supermaximum, Workingmens
is priced at 17.9 times earnings and 71.1% of book value.
The midpoint valuation of $2,500,000 represents a discount of 36.4%
from the average and a discount of 35.0% from the median of the comparative
group on a price/book basis. The price/earnings ratio for Workingmens at the
midpoint represents a discount of 41.3% from the comparative group's mean and a
discount of 32.4% from the median price/earnings ratio.
The maximum valuation of $2,875,000 represents a discount of 32.6% from
the average and 31.1% from the median of the comparative group on a price/book
basis. The price/earnings ratio for Workingmens at the maximum represents a
discount of 35.9% from the average and a discount of 26.2% from the median of
the comparative group.
As shown in Table IV.3, conversions closing since November 30, 1996,
have closed at an average price to book ratio of 71.6% and median of 71.8%.
Workingmens' pro forma price to book ratio is 63.5% at the midpoint, 67.3% at
the maximum, and 71.1% at the supermaximum of the range. At the midpoint,
Workingmens is 11.3% below the average and 11.6% below the median. At the
maximum of the range, Workingmens is 6.0% below the average and 6.3% below the
median. At the supermaximum of the range, Workingmens' pro forma price to book
ratio is .7% below the average and 1.0% below the median.

- ------------------ -----------
As shown in Table IV.4, pink sheet conversions closing since May 31,
1996, have closed at an average price to book ratio of 67.1% and median of
67.2%. Workingmens' pro forma price to book ratio is 63.5% at the midpoint,
67.3% at the maximum, and 71.1% at the supermaximum of the range. At the
midpoint, Workingmens is 5.4% below the average and 5.5% below the median. At
the maximum of the range, Workingmens is .3% above the average and .1% above the
median. At the supermaximum of the range, Workingmens' pro forma price to book
ratio is 6.0% above the average and 5.8% above the median.
Valuation Conclusion
We believe that as of June 6, 1997, the estimated pro forma market
value of Workingmens was $2,500,000. The resulting valuation range was
$2,125,000 at the minimum to $2,875,000 at the maximum, based on a range of 15%
below and 15% above the midpoint valuation. The supermaximum is $3,306,250,
based on 1.15 times the maximum. Pro forma comparisons with the comparative
group are presented in Table III.3 based on calculations shown in Exhibit VII.

Exhibit VI - Comparative Group Selection
To search for a comparative group for Workingmens, we selected all thrifts from
the entire U.S. with assets $75 million that have sufficient trading volume to
produce meaningful market information. All of these thrifts are listed on either
AMEX, NYSE, or Nasdaq.
We found 24 thrifts in the asset size described above. We eliminated 12 and
retained a group of 12. Normally, we consider 10 to be the desired sample size.
We eliminated thrifts for the following reasons: 1) BIF insured; 2) No PE
information for the most recent quarter; 3) Merger agreement has been executed;
4) Loans serviced more than 25% of total assets; and 5) High loan to asset
ratios.
The group of 24 from which the comparative group was selected is listed on
Exhibit VI.1 and the selected comparative group is listed on Exhibit VI.2. On
Exhibit VI.1, we have underlined the cells that indicate which ones were not
selected and why. Set forth below is a legend for the column summarizing reasons
individual thrifts were not selected.
A BIF insured.
B No PE information for the most recent quarter (recent conversions).
C Announced acquisition target.
D Loans serviced exceeds 25% of assets.
E Included in the seven highest loan to asset ratios among the remaining
institutions.

Exhibit VII
Pro Forma Assumptions
1. Net proceeds from the conversion were invested at the beginning of the period
at 6.0%, which was the approximate rate on the one-year treasury bill on March
31, 1997. This rate was selected because it is considered more representative of
the rate the Bank is likely to earn.
2. Workingmens's ESOP will acquire 8% of the conversion stock with loan proceeds
obtained from the Holding Company; therefore, there will be no interest expense.
We assumed that the ESOP expense is 10% annually of the initial purchase.
3. Workingmens's RP will acquire 4% of the stock through open market purchases
at $10 per share and the expense is recognized ratably over five years as the
shares vest.
4. All pro forma income and expense items are adjusted for income taxes at a
combined state and federal rate of 33.0%.
5. In calculating the pro forma adjustments to net worth, the ESOP and RP are
deducted in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
6. Earnings per share ("EPS") calculations have ignored AICPA SOP 93-6.
Calculating EPS under SOP 93-6 and assuming 10% of the ESOP shares are committed
to be released and allocated to the individual accounts at the beginning of the
period would yield EPS of $.79, $.71, $.65, and $.60, and price to earnings
ratios of 12.7, 14.1, 15.4, and 16.7, at the minimum, midpoint, maximum, and
supermaximum of the range, respectively.
