Item 5. Other Events.
On May 13, 1999, the Board of Directors of Columbia Financial of
Kentucky, Inc., an Ohio corporation ("CFKY"), declared a special cash
distribution in the amount of $3.00 per share to each shareholder of record
on May 25, 1999, to be paid on June 8, 1999. Based on consultation with
its tax advisors, management of CFKY expects that at least part of the
distribution will be a non-taxable return of capital, although the exact
amount of the distribution that could be considered non-taxable cannot be
confirmed until the end of CFKY's 1999 tax year. Notices will be mailed to
CFKY shareholders in January 2000 advising them of the amount considered
non-taxable. Shareholders are advised to consult with their personal tax
advisors with respect to their particular income tax situations.
