             PSB Bancorp, Inc. Announces Agreement to
                   Acquire Jade Financial Corp.

     PSB Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ/NMS:  PSBI) and Jade Financial
Corp. (NASDAQ/NMS:  IGAF) announced today the execution of a
definitive Agreement & Plan of Merger pursuant to which PSB will
acquire Jade Financial Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
IGA Federal Savings Bank in a cash transaction valued at
approximately $24.1 million.  Pursuant to the Agreement, PSB
will purchase 100% of the outstanding shares of Jade Financial
Corp. that PSB does not already own for $13.55 per share.  All
Jade shareholders, except its Employee Stock Ownership Plan
("ESOP"), will receive cash consideration.  The Jade ESOP may
receive cash, PSB stock or a combination of both.  PSB will
purchase its own shares in open market and privately-negotiated
transactions in order to provide shares for the Jade ESOP.

     In connection with the transaction, Jade's wholly-owned
subsidiary IGA Federal Savings Bank will merge with and into
PSB's wholly-owned subsidiary, First Penn with the commercial
bank charter of First Penn Bank surviving the merger.

     The Agreement is subject to regulatory approval and the
approval of Jade Financial Corp.'s shareholders.

     Anthony DiSandro, President and CEO of PSB, stated:  "We
are delighted with this acquisition which represents a
significant step in our commitment to profitably expand our
franchise.  The acquisition will be immediately accretive to our
earnings per share, will diversify our loan portfolio and
bolster our core deposit base and will provide the customers of
the combined company with an increased number of products and
services.  The acquisition will also expand our market presence
in the northern suburbs of Philadelphia."

     John J. O'Connell, Chairman of Jade Financial Corp. stated:
"We are very pleased with our affiliation with the growth
oriented, community based organization like PSB Bancorp, Inc.
We believe that this merger is in the best interests of our
shareholders, depositors, customers and employees of our bank."

     The transaction will be accounted for as a purchase for
financial reporting purposes.

Repurchase of PSB Stock

     As mentioned earlier, PSB intends to commence a share
repurchase program for the purposes of funding the exchange of
shares for Jade's ESOP.  Based on current market pricing, PSB
estimates that approximately 400,000 shares will be purchased in
open market and privately-negotiated transactions.  These shares
may be reissued to the ESOP upon closing of the transaction.  If
PSB is unable to purchase enough shares for Jade's ESOP, the
ESOP would receive cash for its shares and PSB would retire the
repurchased shares.

Extension of Option Agreement

     PSB and Lawrence Seidman have extended the term of the
option agreement between the PSB and Mr. Seidman until December
31, 2000.  The option agreement was signed on May 30, 2000 and
was scheduled to expire on October 31, 2000.  The agreement, as
revised, gives PSB an option to purchase for $13.55 per share
the 103,950 shares of Jade owned by Mr. Seidman.
