Item 5. Other Events

        As of the close of business on June 1, 1999, First Bancorp, Inc., a
registered bank holding company of First Bank, Ketchikan, Alaska, completed a
reorganization to become an S corporation for income tax purposes. The
reorganization was effected by means of a merger pursuant to an Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization, dated March 15, 1999, of First Bancorp with and
into Newco Alaska, Inc. (the registrant), with Newco Alaska being the
surviving corporation under the name "First Bancorp, Inc." The registrant
was organized in January, 1999 solely for the purpose of completing the
reorganization, and prior to consummation had no material assets or
operations.

        The Agreement and Plan of Reorganization provided that eligible
shareholders would receive one share of the registrant's common stock for
each share of First Bancorp common stock held as of the effective date of the
reorganization. All other shareholders received cash in the amount of
$175.00 per share. Newco Alaska filed a registration statement on Form S-4
covering the shares issued in the reorganization. The registration statement
was declared effective on March 26, 1999.
